Testimonials
“Have worked with Scott for 20+ years of training. He’s the best - knows his stuff, data-driven, focused on client goals, and an outstanding motivator. Really a class act and incredibly effective - and an all-around nice guy who really knows his stuff and what works. You cannot find a better trainer and diet and nutrition guru.”

“Excellent trainer. Very professional.
Also provides input on related nutrition and general health.
Keeps me focused and provides good variety from session to session.
I'm picky and there are many options. I've been with Scott for close to 10 years. That says it all!!!”— Norm
“Scott has trained me for the last fifteen years since, at around age 60, I realized I must build and maintain muscle mass. Scott is an excellent trainer, and I have been extremely happy with the results we have achieved together. He designs workouts, largely using free weights and cables, that are tailored to my individual needs and strengths. His workouts focus on all the essentials plus have enough added variety to avoid tedium. He sets high expectations but manages to motivate me through workouts without ever appearing to be demanding. I do not believe you will find a better personal trainer.”

Palo Alto/ Menlo Park/ Atherton is a Great Place to Exercise
Though often overshadowed by its southern neighbor Palo Alto, largely due to the influence of Stanford University, Menlo Park is a quieter city that shares the exceptional weather and lifestyle the Bay Area is known for. Silicon Valley’s climate is hard to beat year-round. Few places in California offer the flexibility to ski one day, then return home to Menlo Park or Atherton to play tennis, golf, or head to the beach the very next day—all in a single weekend.
Of course, the cost of living reflects the region’s opportunity and innovation. Famously, Google was developed in a Menlo Park garage by Larry Page and Sergey Brin, rented for $1,700 per month—just for a garage. That investment, as history shows, worked out rather well.
Palo Alto, Menlo Park, and Atherton sit at the midpoint between San Francisco and San Jose—perfect for avoiding crowds during major events like the San Francisco Marathon or the Rock ‘N Roll San Jose Half Marathon & 8K. The San Francisco Marathon is internationally known for landmarks like the Golden Gate Bridge, Fisherman’s Wharf, Golden Gate Park, and Oracle Park, home of the Giants. The Rock ‘N Roll San Jose Half Marathon features live bands and DJs for an electric downtown experience.
Family-friendly activities include the Palo Alto Junior Museum and Zoo and the Palo Alto Children’s Library, while sports fans can visit Levi’s Stadium, home of the San Francisco 49ers in nearby Santa Clara.
For nightlife, The Guild Theatre in Menlo Park offers intimate live concerts. Dining options are plentiful: enjoy elegant evenings at Evia, Ettan, or Tamarine, casual college hangouts like The Patio, Scotty’s Bar, and Barbottle Brewing Bar, or coffee stops at Starbucks, Peet’s, and Bay Area favorite Philz Coffee.
With scenic trails, great weather, and endless outdoor activities, it’s no wonder this area is so vibrant. If you want to get in the best shape of your life while enjoying all that this area has to offer, please call 408-823-7498 or email scott@skvitality.net to train with one of the best personal trainers in Menlo Park, Scott at SK Vitality.
