Coaching for real life

Sinewbrook started with one belief: fitness should fit your life, not swallow it. Here is who we are and how we coach.

Hi! My name is Ava Brooks

I founded Sinewbrook Personal Training after nine years of coaching in big-box gyms, where I watched beginners get handed the same generic plan — and quit within a month. I knew there was a better way.

My method is simple: a full movement screening first, a plan built around your body and calendar second, and honest check-ins every step. I coach strength, fat loss and post-natal return to training, and I am certified in nutrition coaching, kettlebell instruction and functional movement screening.

When I am not on the gym floor, I am testing recipes for the blog, hiking with my dog, or arguing that sleep beats supplements.

What we stand for

Plans, not punishments

Every program starts from your movement, your food and your week. Nothing generic, nothing extreme.

Honest food advice

No banned foods, no 30-day cleanses. We build eating habits you can keep for thirty years.

Strength for life

We train the moves real life demands — carry, lift, climb, play — so results show outside the gym too.

The studio

Our Los Angeles studio is a private coaching space — no crowds, no waiting for machines, no mirrors judging you. Just your coach, your plan and everything you need: free weights, cables, cardio and room to move.

  • Private one-on-one and small-group sessions
  • Morning, lunchtime and evening slots, six days a week
  • Showers, towels and a shake bar on site
