The only bad workout is the one that didn't happen.

First off I’m not even sure where I begin. There’s just too many positive things you can say about Mr. Damien Share.I’ve known him for at least 10 years and in that time have had nothing but good experiences.Personally, on top of just being a good person filled with great advice and guidance I have been a client in the gym on and off. He’s filled with knowledge and not only puts you through the motions, he goes into detail and WHY we do them. He’s a master of his craft and he is also one of the biggest reasons I have met so many body goals. If it wasn’t for him, I would still be trying to figure it all out myself.As far as how SBF is ran, he does a wonderful job. He holds people accountable when they are in the wrong, and going against gym rules. Updates equipment. Has created beautiful art all over the walls. Multiple successful and happy clients. I mean he touches every base.When I think of SBF Fitness, first thought that comes to mind is Damien. If it wasn’t for him, the place would fall apart. He truly cares about the clients and the success of the gym. We salute you Damien 🫡

 I've been training with Damien at South Beach Fitness for the past two years, and he's the main reason I keep coming back. After a serious car accident, I found myself stuck in a sedentary lifestyle and didn’t think I’d ever regain my strength. Damien not only helped me rebuild my body with muscles I didn't even know I had. He’s also been a constant source of positivity and motivation, especially on the days I’ve had none.

Damien and his wife own the gym, and it’s clear he pours his heart into it. Even on his day off, I’ve seen him in there fixing equipment, cleaning, inspiring staff, and even working on a mural. He’s installed new carpet throughout the gym (which it desperately needed), assembled new machines, and disposed of broken ones usually without ever mentioning it. When maintenance issues arise, like ceiling tiles sagging with water, he’s the one doing what he can to keep things from falling apart.

The gym itself is older and could use some upgrades. The TVs often show nothing but the Roku home screen, and it would be great to have something to watch while suffering through cardio. There's no Wi-Fi for members, which is frustrating when the TVs aren’t working and I’m trying to stream something on my phone. The water fountains barely function. The cleaning policy still uses paper towels and spray bottles instead of sanitary wipes, which feels outdated. Damien does what he can to keep the paper towel dispensers full and he loves this place! He wants more for it. 

The place is clean thanks to the constant efforts of Damien and his team. He handles difficult members and situations like broken rules or overpowering cologne with grace and professionalism. He leads by example, and you get the feeling people work there not for the paycheck, but because they believe in the place and the culture he’s created.
The gym gets hot in August, and while I wish it were cooler, I also recognize what a challenge it must be to keep a space like that consistently comfortable. Still, I show up because Damien shows up. His dedication is unmatched, and he genuinely cares about each member's progress and experience.

South Beach Fitness may not be the flashiest gym around, but Damien’s commitment, energy, and leadership make it a place worth being. He's the reason I’ve been able to get back on my feet, and he’s the reason I stay.

I have engaged Damien as my physical trainer for the past 3 years and have no intention of transitioning from Damien as my physical trainer.  His develops individual workout plans on a person-by-person basis…In my case the focus was age (60+ year) related functional training.  This has yielded visible results in significant leg strength, flexibility, core strength increases.  Damien is very adept as adjusting daily training sessions to client’s daily objective.  He is not fixated on a specific training session.  For example, we spent the majority of one session on back loosening exercises and another on shoulder loosening exercises.  These exercises are easily incorporated in daily stretches & training.  I consider him a “coach” more than a physical trainer.  He encourages his clients to take these exercises out of the training session incorporating them into a wellness lifestyle.  He inspires his clients to exceed their own expectations…essentially breaking their own limitations.

Damien, than you for “coaching” me, encouraging me, and challenging me

I’ve known Damien for over 14 years, and during that time I’ve had the opportunity to witness his unwavering dedication to South Beach Fitness, his personal development, and his role as a husband and father.  It’s clear that Damien has played a central role in day-to-day operations, maintenance, and overall atmosphere of the gym.

He’s consistently gone above and beyond—whether it was training clients, laying flooring, painting walls, maintaining and repairing equipment, or handling behind-the-scenes logistics. His artistic contributions gave the gym a unique, welcoming, and local vibe that members genuinely appreciate. It’s clear that he takes pride in every detail, treating the gym as both a business and a passion project.

Damien has always conducted himself with kindness, professionalism, and respect, both inside the gym and out. He brings energy and heart to everything he’s involved in, and it’s evident that he cares deeply about his clients, his work, and most importantly, his family.

He’s a solid individual and a good friend. I’m proud to know him and to have watched his contributions over the years.

Hello - To whom it may concern: Having been a consistent member of SBF for over a year, I regularly observe Mr. Share bringing respect, and a sense of pride and cleanliness to the gym that is unmatched by other trainers or staff. His dedication to SBF members health/well being, Operational Capabilities and overall Mission Success are to be dually noted and justly rewarded. Thank You - Bruce

To Whom It May Concern,

I’ve known Damien for about three to three and a half years through South Beach Fitness, where I began working with him as a personal training client about a year into my membership. From the start, Damien helped me push beyond what I thought I was capable of in the gym. He taught me how to lift heavier with proper technique and really changed the way I train my own body. His guidance made me a more confident and efficient gym-goer.

Because I knew Damien was married to the owner, I naturally saw him as someone deeply connected to the gym’s day-to-day operations. Over the years, I’ve reached out to him countless times with questions about gym hours, equipment, or my own training—and he always responds with patience, clarity, and care. His support has never felt transactional; he goes out of his way to be helpful, even following up with encouraging words when he notices my progress.

Beyond his training knowledge, Damien has always struck me as someone genuinely kind, generous, and invested in the well-being of the gym community. He’s one of the people I look forward to seeing whenever I’m at South Beach Fitness, and I consider him a trusted and valuable part of my fitness journey. I’m truly grateful our paths have crossed.

The backbone of South Beach Fitness…
One might assume that Damien Share calls South Beach Fitness his primary residence. You will find him there at almost any hour of the day, night, and weekend filling any role necessary to make South Beach a clean, professional fitness center. From welcoming guests at the front desk and providing free fitness training to new members, to making sure all equipment is in good repair, painting walls, repairing ceiling leaks and boarding up windows for hurricane prep, Damien clearly treats South Beach as his own entity. His presence at the gym creates a professional atmosphere that was lacking in the past. 

I was a member of South Beach Fitness for about a year before I started working with Damien. At the time, I was only doing group classes—I didn’t know anything about strength training and was intimidated to try anything on my own. That changed when I tore my meniscus just three weeks before a 500-mile hike I had been planning for months. I approached Damien for help, and he immediately developed a targeted plan to get my knee as strong and stable as possible in a very short time. Thanks to his expertise, my knee held up perfectly throughout the entire trek.
Since then, we’ve worked together for nearly two years, and under Damien’s technical guidance and steady encouragement, I am working hard and confidently to achieve a personal milestone: doing a pull-up from a dead hang as a 59-year-old female. (I am so close and will not give up!)  Beyond our sessions, Damien is a key presence at South Beach Fitness—friendly and supportive to everyone, always aware of what’s happening in the gym, and quick to address equipment issues or gym etiquette when needed. He takes obvious pride in both his clients and the gym itself. Damien is not only a great trainer, but a person of integrity and warmth.  He is a true asset to the South Beach Fitness community.

I’ve known Damien for about 10 years or more. I’m a regular at South Beach fitness, where he works, and I encounter him pretty much on a daily basis. My impression overall of Damien is that he is an extremely conscientious, hard-working individual with a true passion in the area of personal fitness and development. He’s been helpful with me and my own physical issues many times, he seems to really love researching and getting back to me with solutions. Very intelligent and knowledgeable and loves the research of it all! He’s one of those rare individuals with excellence at his craft but also having very good people skills… he’s very interactive with the members,always upbeat and positive and encouraging! Nothing but good things to say about Damien, an overall extremely impressive individual with so much to offer in this whole area of personal fitness! 

I first learned of Damien about 3 years ago through a dear friend who had numerous medical issues that had sidelined him. After working with Damien, my friend was able to recover and resume his active tennis schedule. This convinced my wife to meet with Damien to discuss a plan for her recovery after some injuries as well. 
After listening to his strategies and plans, my wife joined the gym and signed up for Damien to be her personal trainer. For 6 months, my wife extolled the benefits of training with Damien and really enjoyed working with him. That was enough to convince me. 
I met with Damien and immediately understood what my friend and wife found compelling about Damien and his approach to personal training. He asked a series of questions about my challenges and goals and devised a plan unique to me. I too joined South Beach Fitness because of Damien and his skillset. 
Having played baseball in college and overseas professionally, I have worked with many strength coaches and trainers but learned a whole new, effective approach from Damien. And it worked, his strategies produced the results I hoped to achieve in both strengthening and conditioning. 
His success in attracting clientele is because he genuinely cares about his clients and helping them reach their goals. It's also obvious he cares about the gym and its members. I watched him often go the extra mile to clean up areas and equipment to keep things rolling. So many members stop by to say Hi and check in because he is such a quality person. No one cares more about the success of SBF than Damien, that is crystal clear. 
Thank you for the opportunity to provide this testimonial regarding his qualities and contributions. 

Absolute Endorsement For Physical Trainer Damien Share

It is both a privilege and honor to endorse Damien Share to anyone in need of a personal trainer. I was referred to Damien Share at South Beach Fitness by mutual friends and clients of Damien. At the time I was dealing with a painful case of tennis elbow. My friends insisted I see Damien because he helped them overcome every physical ailment they had. After that recommendation, both my husband and I joined South Beach Fitness to sign up for Damien's expertise to both get stronger and help us get over our areas of pain. We both golf, swim and lift, so we were eager to strengthen our bodies while alleviating our painful issues. Within one month, my tennis elbow was gone. I went from not being able to lift a coffee cup to being able to do anything I wanted to do with that arm! With such success, I kept scheduling weekly sessions with him.

During the past year I've worked with Damien, I watched him patiently (and always with a smile) juggle working with his clients while other employees and members interrupted his sessions to ask questions, or to let him know if any machines and gym areas needed repairing, cleaning or restocking. Without missing a beat with his clients, he deftly took care Of the pressing issues. As a talented artist, he somehow also found some free time to paint a beautiful mural on the gym's main interior wall.

Due to extensive travels, my husband and I have had to take breaks from working with Damien, but we always come back and quickly sign up for our weekly sessions with him. We live in Suntree and have access to both Pro Health Fitness and Patrick SFB gyms, but we will always follow Damien, were he to stay or move elsewhere, to benefit from his amazing skill in helping us achieve flexibility and strength. He is such a game changer for us, as I am sure he is for many others that also have the privilege of benefitting from his expertise.

As a professional tennis player and athlete,  I’ve worked with many trainers over the years,  and I can confidently say that Damien Share stands out in every way.   He has made an impact on my life that has been nothing short of transformative. 
I originally joined South Beach fitness because of him, and I’m so glad I did!   Damien‘s dedication, work ethic, and positive energy are unmatched.   He leads by example and inspires everyone around him— clients and colleagues alike. His hands-on role in the daily operations of the club only adds to the strong sense of community he’s helped build.
 I’m grateful for his guidance and proud to call him a friend.
Please feel free to reach out to me if you’d like to hear more about my experience working with Damien. 

I have been a proud member of South Beach Fitness for approximately nine years, and from day one, I’ve had the pleasure of knowing Damien. He is truly one of the main reasons I continue to remain a member after all these years.


Damien is an outstanding trainer—always willing to offer advice, support, and encouragement, even when you’re not training with him directly. He genuinely cares about the well-being and success of everyone who walks through the door.


I honestly can’t remember a time when I haven’t seen Damien at the gym. Whether I’ve come in during the morning or evening, he’s there—working hard, engaging with members, and making sure things are running smoothly. I’ve even seen him personally fixing broken equipment to ensure everything is accessible and in good working order.


Any time I’ve had a question or concern, Damien is the first person I reach out to. He consistently handles everything with professionalism, patience, and kindness. South Beach Fitness is a better place because of his dedication and presence.

I have been a member at the above gym for a couple of years.  Actually, my wife just joined on my recommendation; a recommendation based in a large part on my experience with Damien Share at the gym.  My first encounter with Damien was on the first or second day of my membership when, at the water fountain Damien, out of the blue, asked me if I was a new member.  I was, of course, and he immediately introduced himself and welcomed me to the gym so sincerely and professionally, that I remember it to this day.
Since then, Damien has been a constant part of my South Beach Fitness experience.   His training has helped me continually to reach my workout goals and, actually, surpass them, accomplishing strength and endurance goals beyond what I had hoped for.  I have been working out at gyms for over forty years, am seventy three years old and, I don't believe I'm exaggerating when I say that Damien has gotten me into the best shape I have ever been.
Damien's approach, knowledge, specific methods,  expectations and demeanor are all part of what makes him being at South Beach Fitness the only gym I would go to here in the greater Melbourne FL area.  There are quite a few but Damien makes this gym unique.  I see how Damien is also looked on by the other members and their respect for his knowledge and technique are shared by everyone.
In closing, I remember all of the times I have come home and told my wife about Damien, honestly, and our interaction that day; numerous times.  Damien Share is the presence at South Beach Fitness.  When he is there, for me, the place has a more professional and focused atmosphere.  Damien Share IS South Beach Fitness.
