Personal Training in Bellevue, Washington

About Us

Welcome to Eastside Athletics! We are an industry-leading personal training company based in Bellevue, WA built on the belief that when you train hard, move well, and move often, everything in your life gets better.

We specialize in intelligent, intensity-driven training. Our programs are grounded in proven strength & conditioning principles: progressive overload, planned intensity, movement quality, and purposeful recovery. We train to produce measurable improvements in strength, power, muscle mass, bone density, mobility, endurance, and overall body composition. But the real difference at Eastside Athletics is in how we coach. We don’t just count reps or run you through a routine. We teach you how to train — how to push with intention, correct technique, and how to leverage advanced training methods to drive adapatation. You’ll understand why each session is built the way it is and how your body adapts over time.

We view training through a wide lens: physical, mental, and emotional. Yes, you’ll get stronger. But you’ll also build discipline, confidence, and the ability to navigate life with a body that feels capable and resilient. This is personal training for people who want to train with purpose, learn real skill, and develop the kind of strength that lasts a lifetime.

Alina is so detail oriented, gives me the best cues so that I can understand how to adjust my positioning, and has taken me from someone who has consistent low back pain and many old sports injuries to a consistent, pain free, badass weightlifting athlete despite an ankle and hand injury (2 injuries 6 months apart!) I got halfway through the year+ I’ve been working with her! She adjusted all the exercises to whatever mobility my ankle and hand was capable of, and anytime I want more or less HIIT/mobility/etc she is quick to adjust our plan. I finally feel like the athlete I’ve always wanted to be, sprinting is easy, and I feel like I can do anything. Alina still knows how to humble me though too, and keep me wanting to come back to master new skills and moves!!

I have never had a personal trainer before Alina, but she pays close attention to you with laser focus, is so encouraging, and is such a genuine inspiration because she is such a great athlete herself. She is able to talk to me about any struggles I am having with my fitness journey and genuinely cares about and invests in me getting better every day.

…

I’ve worked with Alina now atleast 5 years. The first thing I noticed when I met Alina is she is a very strong, confident person. She brought her all to every session and was an excellent listener.

Over the years, I’ve seen Alina grow as a coach, person, and business owner. It’s very rare in my experience to find a coach these days that’s all in on your success. The interaction seems transactional, and the help doesn’t go past your visit to the gym.

Alina is a very rare coach. She stands out with education, support, and direction. The amount of time she invests in a client goes well beyond the hour. She gives you support in the session, out of the session, homework to keep you on track, detailed workout records, and a DXA to hold you accountable.

At this point, I’ve worked with many trainers, and experiences have varied. I’ve seen first hand what a good coach can do to impact your life. When Alina coaches she is very focused and invested in your health and progress. She doesn’t just help your reach your goals but truly inspires you to live a healthier life.

I would highly recommend Alina for anyone at any level. I feel a lot of reviews are made by people’s friends and its hard to know who or what trust online these days. I say this from first hand experience from working with Alina, she is a rare kind of coach. You need more than just a workout to be successful and she is one of the few that truly understands what it takes to help you succeed. Highly recommend.

My experience at Eastside Athletics has been a really warm and welcoming one. It’s really important to me to work with a trainer who actually knows what they’re doing and Alina really knows her stuff. I’ve been lifting for over 10 years and feel really happy with the quality and personalization of training and programming I’m getting.

…

My experience with trainer Alina has been awesome. I initially began training with Alina because I was looking for a training regimen and coach that would aid me in recovery.

Alina took the time to understand my unique needs, creating a program that not only aided me in my recovery, but did so with safety as a priority. From my experience, she cares greatly for her clients and is incredibly supportive.

Whether it’s functional fitness, weight loss, or strength training, she crafts workouts that strike a perfect balance between challenging and achievable.

If you’re seeking personalized, effective, and genuinely supportive fitness guidance, I couldn’t recommend Alina enough for your fitness goals.

…

I desperately needed to get back into strength training after having a baby, and there have been so many barriers to getting started. After talking with Alina, she was able to make me a thoughtful plan that worked with my schedule. I can make it to Bellevue once a month but Alina gives me programming and communicates with me between visits to keep me accountable. She is incredibly knowledgeable personal trainer, and pushes me to live my most healthy and full life!

…

I’ve been training with Alina for more than two years now. Best trainer I’ve ever had!! She brings a high level of expertise and dedication to her work. From the very beginning, her commitment to my fitness goals was evident, tailoring every session to my specific needs and capabilities.

What sets Alina apart is not only her professionalism but also her friendly and approachable demeanor. She creates a positive and encouraging atmosphere, making each workout session enjoyable.
She explains exercises thoroughly, ensuring I understand the purpose and correct form, which has significantly contributed to my progress. Her ability to motivate goes beyond just physical aspects; she genuinely cares about my overall well-being, offering valuable advice on lifestyle changes.

Working with Alina has been an incredibly positive experience. Her professionalism, knowledge, and genuine kindness create a training environment that is both effective and enjoyable. I highly recommend Alina to anyone seeking a personal trainer who not only delivers results but also makes the fitness journey an uplifting and rewarding experience!
