"Tell Scott, I'm a firm fan. His book "clicked" with me and my client base is loving it so much they can't help but refer!!! I'm the most expensive trainer in Pakistan/India and I don't have ANY room for new people!

I'd like to say, it’s the referral strategies or my word of mouth marketing...but it's the fact that my clients ARE LOVING my new Abel inspired training methods!!

That's why I'd like to order one product at a time - I'm loving the "absorption" process he allows with his writings --- he leaves a lot to the imagination with his scientific and methodical approach to training."

"Most Canadian fans are familiar with the name Scott Abel. Scott has trained many National level bodybuilders over the years. He is also responsible for many current trainers and experts who have gained a lot of their knowledge through working with him. Well, Scott not only talks the talk, but also walks the walk. He can back up his reputation as Canada's best trainer by the kind of condition that he himself gets in. Let's face it. You can hardly take a so-called trainer seriously when he is standing in front of you with a huge pot belly and bloated face. Obviously the best physique days of a guy like that are only a memory. I don't think I have ever seen Abel out of shape. This fact was most evident at the Toronto pro show where he performed a unique and entertaining posing routine in which he first appeared wearing a Chucky mask and wielding a knife. He eventually tossed the knife and executed some impressive bodybuilding poses which showed he was in top shape and truly practices what he preaches."

"Scott Abel may be the planet's first and only PHD in bodybuilding."

"Words cannot describe the gratitude for what you have done for me. Not only did you help me show up on stage looking my all time best, but more importantly helped me mature and develop to be a better person. You will always be the epitome of what a Coach is supposed to be… not only do you talk the talk, but walk the walk!"

Darren Mehling, Manitoba Provincial Champion, 07

"I began working with Scott in 2002. I had been qualified for the National stage since ’93 but had lacked the confidence to pursue such a dream. After attending The Big Event in both Calgary and Edmonton and being witness to who was doing well at those shows it became apparent to me that I needed to hire a coach who had experience with athletes at that level. My personal opinion has always been if you are going to invest time and energy into something, don’t do it half assed, give it your best effort. That is where Scott came into the picture. I was very impressed with the conditioning of his clients and after some research I decided this man had the skills no other trainer could provide me with. To this date I will credit hiring Scott as the best decision I have ever made with respect to my bodybuilding career. Within the first 12 months of working together I gained more knowledge about the sport than I had acquired in the previous 14 years. To say Scott inspires you to challenge yourself at another level both physically and mentally would be an understatement. He has had a profound effect on my life and has become one of my mentors. The guidance he provides transcends the boundaries of athletics and resonates deeply in the dynamics of personal growth and character development. He does not limit his investment to where you place in a contest but strives to help you achieve the ultimate goal of self awareness. That very philosophy has guided me to the top of “my mountain” and encouraged me to look over it to what lies beyond. For that I will always be grateful to Scott and thankful that I was able to share a part of my life’s story with him."

Dan Fedeluk, IFBB Pro, Personal Trainer

"I have been training under Scott for almost 10 years. He is passionate, knowledgeable, honest , and genuinely cares about his clients. I recommend Scott to anyone who wants to make a change in there lives. As long as you have determination, Scott's approach will produce desired results.

He tailors each program to the uniqueness of each client. This means he adjusts my training regime and diet to my personal circumstances or whatever I am doing; be it competing, shooting, or performing. Whatever my goals, or whatever life throws at me, Scott has been supportive. He stands behind his athletes through the many "stages" of life. Whether that be in a gym, on a stage, on the field, or at home . He is an inspirational coach and caring individual."

"He is a true role model, on so many levels, and I can say with the utmost sincerity that I am a better woman for knowing him. Thanks coach!!"

Maddy Howard



"I just want to thank Scott for all he does, that extends way beyond the title of coach. Where else could a regular Joe, non-competitor like me, get a contract with a supplement company and eventually be in magazines all over the world. It's such a dream come true and Scott makes these things happen for tons of regular Joe's and Jane's, just like me. Thanks Scott. I will make you proud."

Laz, Florida USA




"As always I said there are much to learn from Scott...the complete COACH"

Gabe from Italy





"Scott it is this value added of motivation and inspiration that you provide your clients with, which is so much more than a trainer or coach has to do, that makes your services (our partnership) that much more valuable."

Soccernation, Abel Files Member





"Since hiring Scott I absolutely LOVE my training now. My physique is already so much better than last year. I am a lot "fuller" and I'm seeing new cuts I never had before. At the same weight last year I felt "skinny" but not this year! I feel very happy, strong, and a lot more confident. I can't even explain how happy I've been lately, I feel like I have a grin on my face 24/7."

Vanessa Newton




"I am currently deployed in Iraq. Just a shout out to the information that you place in your web site (training and supplements). My team and I almost swear by your advice."

Allan R. LaViers





"I count on Scott to give me the best most efficient time saving programs and diets, and supplement advice. His knowledge is unequalled by anyone in the game of fitness."

Trevor Timmons - Montreal Canadians, Director of Player Personnel




"I want to personals thank Scott for making this dream come true for me. With out him I would not be a pro."
Dan Dufresne - 2005 Canadian IFBB Pro, Alberta




In reference to this comment on Abelfiles Forums section:

" I only wish I had started with Scott sooner"

The response was:
" I think all of us clients feel the same way. It's like we just wasted time, energy and money before we discovered and hired Scott, and there's no turning back now"
