I started looking for a new personal trainer after spending two years with my previous PT, where I ended up dealing with recurring knee injuries from squatting. I’ve now been training with Ryan for a year, and the difference has been huge. He puts a strong emphasis on proper technique, and his coaching has helped me progress confidently every week without training feeling intimidating or risky. I also really like that it’s a boutique gym with plenty of space and equipment, so it never feels overcrowded. The location is very convenient, just a short walk from Tanjong Pagar MRT, and the friendly atmosphere makes it feel like a real fitness community where everyone is welcoming. Every session leaves me excited to see how much further I can improve, and I couldn’t be happier with the experience.

Jia Liang is a very patient trainer and is very knowledgeable when it comes to PT! Highly recommend Jia Liang if you are looking for personal training in CBD or in Tanjong Pagar, it's just minutes away from the MRT.He takes the time to explain thoroughly, making sure that personal training sessions are suitable for different levels and even beginner-friendly.

Best personal gym I have tried, especially for girls, really non-threatening environment, very comfortable and the trainer is very particular about having correct forms. Always have a great time training here, highly recommended

Before joining, I exercised on and off without much structure. Jia Liang helped me build a systematic understanding of training and taught me how to improve both strength and endurance in a sustainable way. What I appreciate most is that he doesn't use a one-size-fits-all approach. He takes the time to understand your goals, strengths, limitations, and lifestyle, then tailors a practical program that works for you.The environment at Trident is another reason I've stayed so long. The gym is friendly, welcoming, and well-equipped, with a supportive community that makes training enjoyable.Highly recommended for anyone looking for personalized coaching and long-term progress.

I have been working with Gabriel at Trident for over 18 months and highly recommend him and the overall Trident set up. I have had a repeated back issue which Gabriel has helped stabilise and strengthen, and he has also been an essential part of my recovery from a shoulder operation. What differentiates the Trident team is: a. their consistent care and safety-first mindset; b. their skill and flexibility - finding new techniques and ways to do things that work no matter what; c. their ability to strike the right balance between pushing me and containing my enthusiasm; d. their overall holistic/integral approach. I am far more in touch with my body now, as well as being stronger and more physically confident. I am very pleased that I arranged a free consultation all those months ago.

I’ve been training with Ryan for the past two years, and it’s been one of the best investments I’ve made in my health and fitness.My goal was never really weight loss — I wanted to get stronger, improve my overall health, and build sustainable habits. With Ryan’s guidance, I’ve achieved far more than I expected. I can now do a full bodyweight push-up, and I’m squatting and deadlifting weights that I never imagined I’d be capable of lifting when I first started.What I appreciate most about Ryan is his patience and personalised approach. Every training programme is tailored to my goals, abilities, and progress. He takes the time to explain things clearly, adjusts the programme when needed, and encourages positive changes without ever being forceful or pushy.The gym environment is welcoming and supportive, making it easy to stay consistent. If you’re looking for a trainer who genuinely cares about helping you get stronger and healthier in a sustainable way, I highly recommend Ryan and his gym.

I’ve been working with Trident gym for awhile now and I must say they have their hearts in the right places. The care they’ve shown and time dedicated to clients are phenomenal.I would easily recommend this as one of the top, if not the best gym for personal training around tanjong pagar and the CBD area. Situated conveniently near the MRT and right next to Guocco Towers, it makes life a lot easier too. 10/10 would recommend and would send my family and friends here too.

If you are looking for a flashy, corporate gym with towel service and eucalyptus-scented steam rooms, this isn't it. But if you want a place that actually feels like a community and meet your physical objectives, Trident is unmatched.The setup itself is a solid, back-to-basics gym. It has all the essential equipment you need for a great workout without any unnecessary fluff. What really sets it apart, though, is the atmosphere. There is an incredible vibe here from the moment you walk in—it’s high-energy, completely unpretentious, and welcoming to everyone regardless of where they are on their fitness journey.The trainers like Jia Liang are the real heartbeat of the place. They are genuinely friendly, approachable, and highly knowledgeable. They’re not “time watching,” like other trainers and will push you to your maximum. You never feel like just another membership number to them; they actually care about my progress, keep a close eye on my form, and push me to improve while keeping things fun and always encouraging.It’s hard to find a gym with this much soul these days. Highly recommend checking it out if you want a fantastic workout surrounded by honestly good people.

I’ve been training with Jia at Trident Fitness and couldn’t recommend both Jia and the gym highly enough.Jia is an outstanding trainer who combines deep knowledge, professionalism, and a genuine commitment to helping his clients succeed. Every session is thoughtfully planned, challenging without being overwhelming, and tailored to my individual goals. He pays close attention to technique, explains the purpose behind each exercise, and knows exactly when to push you to achieve more than you thought possible.What sets Jia apart is that he genuinely cares about his clients’ progress. He’s encouraging, approachable, and always focused on building sustainable results rather than chasing short-term gains.Trident Fitness is also a fantastic gym. The facilities are clean, well-equipped, and welcoming, creating an environment where people of all fitness levels can feel comfortable training. The atmosphere is professional yet friendly, and it’s clear that member results are a priority.Since training with Jia, I’ve seen significant improvements in my strength, fitness, mobility, and overall health. If you’re looking for a knowledgeable trainer who is invested in your success and a gym that provides excellent support and facilities, I would highly recommend Jia and Trident Fitness.

Worked with Jia Liang for almost a year and would highly recommend him. I was coming back to strength training looking for prehab cognizant approaches and Jia Liang's knowledge was apparently immediately.I always felt like I was in good hands and the physiotherapist he also recommended was of great support - both of their collaborative natures enabled me to significantly improve how i felt on a day to day basis managing a lower back injury. Huge wins for me were doing kettlebell deadlifts of 36kg confidently (having started with like 12kg kettlebells from a slight elevation).I know some people hesitate to work with a personal trainer because they worry it might be a harsh environment or feel pressured to chase aesthetic goals.That was never my experience. Jia Liang created a supportive, judgment-free environment where progress was tailored to my needs and goals. Whether you're training for body transformation, injury recovery, strength, longevity, confidence, or simply to feel better in your day-to-day life, his coaching provides a safe space to work towards whatever success looks like for you. Case in point is that I never weighed myself in the gym ever.So yes, I would totally recommend this gym. Trainers are friendly, small gym that feels quite chill too!
