This is my first personal trainer and he is doing a superb job. John is attentive, patience, knowledgeable and has a passion for fitness. I am pleased with our training regimen thus far, I am not at my goal weight yet, but I have noticed my progression so far.

His knowledge on nutrition is what I've been looking for. He's helped me with my meal plans, I'm starting to cut out all the snacking by eating more in tune with my body and workout. He is very informative. As I work out, he explains what muscle/s that particular exercise is working. He explains in detail certain muscle groups, which help me understand.

So far I have been so pleased with John. We hired him to support an elderly family member with eating issues to support critical weight gain. She is 20% of the way to our target after a month. He is prompt, responsive, professional, human and non judgmental. He demonstrates a flexible attitude with someone who spent more than a decade not taking care of herself. I am looking forward to continuing to work with him.

FAQs

Presently, I charge $50 per session for personal training. My specials include $70 for couples and a 5% discount for 20 sessions. This pricing includes a nutrition plan and ongoing nutritional counseling.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
After you agree to work with me, we will schedule our first Zoom session. I use the first session to assess your limitations and strengths. It is also a time for you to get to know me and get comfortable working with me. I always proceed according to your pace. From that point on, we work together to reach our goals. I have been on this journey with many clients. So, I help can you through the rough spots and celebrate your victories.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I'm a former champion athlete. I have two bachelor degrees from San Diego State Uni. and Grand Canyon Uni. I am state certified as a nutritionist. I am a licensed herbalist and I am a certified personal trainer. I'm constantly increasing my knowledge and sharing it with others.
