Aaron Oyster

Aaron Oyster is a NASM Certified Personal Trainer and Corrective Exercise Specialist from Sperryville, Virginia.

Born and raised in Rappahannock County, Aaron works with people of all ages but specializes in helping adults 50 and over build strength and resilience through progressive overload training. He places particular emphasis on strength training for women, focusing on bone density, balance, coordination, and body composition.

Aaron’s approach is shaped by his own experience. Having come back from serious injuries and overcome obesity, he knows first hand what it takes to rebuild. He understands the nuances of training safely with heart conditions such as AFib, and has supported clients living with cancer, atherosclerosis, traumatic brain injury, osteoporosis, and type 2 diabetes.

Aaron’s philosophy is built for real life, mess and all. He sees each person as a dynamic process, always adapting to the changes life brings, and he trains them that way. For Aaron, the gym isn’t meant to take over anyone’s life. It’s a tool for living with more energy and presence. 

Aaron was born and raised in Rappahannock County. He and his partner Emma and son Bo live in a cabin on the edge of the Shenandoah National Park in Sperryville, Virginia. Outside the gym, Aaron is a lifelong musician who enjoys theatre, literature, and big ideas.
