PERSONAL TRAINING

Sweat’s focus is on individualized training and treatment.

Evan Settle opened Sweat LLC in the spring of 2005. He says, “The unavoidable truth is that there is no downside to exercise. It improves everything you do, the way you see yourself, and the way others see you.

Exercise makes you an active participant in your own destiny simply by extending the functional years of your life, as well as the options you have during your life.”

The other truth is, it is hard work, you will get short of breath, there will be muscle fatigue, as well as muscle failure, but unless you get to that point you will never realize the whole host of long-term benefits that you will gain from these sacrifices.

Do you have personal fitness goals you want to achieve? Let Sweat help you get there!

Meet the Owner

Evan E. Settle V, Owner of Sweat LLC + Certified Personal Trainer

Evan Settle, is the owner of Sweat LLC, a high-end private personal training studio located on West Main Street in a storefront built in 1880.

Evan earned his Bachelors of Science in Exercise Science from Virginia Commonwealth University with an emphasis in Sports Medicine and Rehabilitative Therapy.

Evan graduated on Academic Scholarship with a 3.75 G.P.A. Now that Evan is back within walking distance of the VCU campus – his roots in the Richmond area and Fan District are established.

During Evan’s ten years of experience, he has worked as a Registered Rehabilitative Therapist, Personal Trainer, Assistant Fitness Director, Fitness Director, and now the owner of this physical fitness studio.

Evan has worked with clients of all ages and skill levels. Along with the specialized knowledge, Evan has gained from school; he also draws on a deep passion and belief he has for the benefits of Physical Fitness.

This passion and belief in the benefits of exercise stem from Evan’s own past experiences. In March 1981, he sustained a third-degree head injury as a passenger in a car hit head-on by another vehicle. The accident left him in a coma for 11 days. When he awoke, he had hemiparesis, a condition that paralyzes one entire side of the body.

The affected side depends on which part of the brain was injured and the severity of the trauma. He also developed speech apraxia, losing the ability to speak.

Though he could hear, understand, and form responses, he couldn’t speak or make a sound. Trapped in his own body, he could want to yell at the top of his lungs, but no one would hear. His rehabilitation shaped every belief and perspective he holds.

After the accident, Evan couldn’t walk, talk, move his right side, or support his own weight. Having lived through both struggle and recovery, he now uses his knowledge and experience to help others achieve their goals.

There is no reason not to exercise or be active every day. The benefits are endless as well as the pitfalls of not doing it. The excuse of “I don’t have time” isn’t valid, the truth is, you don’t have time not to.

Everyone around you will benefit, and it will improve everything you do.

There are 168 hours during the week, and you can carve out 3-6 hours from that per week to invest in your own life.

“Evan is a great trainer! He challenges me, pushes me, motivates me and keeps me
focused on my long-term goal.”

TESTIMONIALS

Shortly after turning 40, I found myself at my heaviest—280 pounds—struggling with stairs, movement, and a deep sense of frustration. I started walking and lost 6 pounds on my own, but past attempts to get active had always faded. I knew I needed support to stay focused and motivated.

That’s when I found Sweat. Evan’s personal story drew me in, and his training kept me coming back. He challenges, pushes, and motivates me while keeping my long-term goals in sight. Since starting with Sweat, I’ve lost 60 more pounds, feel energized, and am finally living, not just existing. With 25 pounds left to reach my goal, I’m excited to keep working with Evan to maintain my progress and set new personal milestones.

I am a 52-year-old male and have been a client at Sweat LLC since February of 2009. There are no shortcuts! Sweat LLC unlocked the potential for me to improve my health, strength and overall appearance. I have dropped from a 36 to a 32-pant size and lost 30 lbs. Each session is fast-paced, creative and challenging. The staff motivates me to reach levels that I never thought I could attain. After being a member of three gyms with minimal and sporadic results, I have found success with Sweat! Sweat LLC has changed my life.

M. Smith

I decided I needed personal training when I knew just going to the gym wasn’t enough. I am a 36-year-old stay at home mom, and still had post-pregnancy fat from my daughter who is now 3! Training with Evan is the toughest and best workout I have ever done in my life. He is personally committed to seeing that I reach my fitness goals.

He provides guidance and encouragement that I have never received anywhere else. My overall strength and energy level has increased significantly. Evan is there to push me to my limits, and every day I see changes in my body. I have lost 11 pounds in 2 months and have gone from a size 10 to a size 6. my only regret is not doing this sooner!
