Introduction: Over the past 14+ years, I've worked with people from all walks of life from people looking to lose those last 5 pounds to those who have never worked out in their lives to people who have a ton of injuries that I need to help them work around in order to feel good and get the results they want. Every client receives specific nutrition advice, which accompanies every workout package, because working out is only half the battle. The other half is won and fought between the workouts. This nutrition advice is based on habits that you can see yourself sticking to long-term. So if you hate a certain food, you don't have to eat it. If you love a certain food and can't think of getting rid of it, you don't have to. Being able to help people day in and day out is what makes my job so great. Everyone talks about fat loss or weight loss, but a lot of people just want to feel better about themselves and who they are. This can mean being healthier, looking better and finally getting to a point where they can eat in a way that has them both looking and feeling good, while being able to have a life. These are some of the things I do every day. Beyond that, seeing someone break out of their shell when they feel confident in their body is absolutely amazing also. Give me 60-Days and if you're not completely satisfied, you can get a full refund.

Thanks John. I'm working with Eze at Hoboken Fitness for about three weeks now and I'm glad with my selection. I've never worked with a personal trainer before so I can't compare. I can tell that they are very professional and understanding. They will encourage you to improve but in a respectful way (not being "pushy"). The nutrition advise is highly appreciated, I feel better about my gym routines now knowing that I'm doing the right things and look forward to keep working with them.

Over the years I've worked with 3 other trainers and I would have to say that working with John has been the best. His knowledge, of not only exercise, but nutrition, supplements and rehab protocols gives you a one stop shop to help you completely transform your body. He works around your goals, any injuries you may have and knows his stuff inside and out. Working out with John has been like working out with a family member that cares about you, but actually knows what they're talking about. Since I started working with John, I have lost 25 pounds but have done so, while eating more real food, while rarely, if ever, feeling hungry. During that time I also have lost 11% body fat, which means all the weight I have lost is fat. I am also stronger now than I have ever been. Each workout with John has been different, but there is always incremental progress that you see accumulate. With John it's less of a fad diet or workout program and instead part of a lifestyle plan to help you reach your goals while being the healthiest you can be. I always recommend John to people and have even had my mom start training with him. If you have any doubts before starting, go talk to John, try the free assessment and I believe you will be pleased with the outcome.

"I am a challenging client because I hate pushing myself! John makes our work outs fun. They would fly by before I could do too much complaining. What impressed me most is his knowledge of the human body and how it responds to specific workouts, nutrition, and supplements. He's more than a trainer who reminds you that its all a mind game, he becomes your coach. He tweaked my diet, he educated me about reaching my goals, and helped me learn how to maintain that goal. I would recommend him for anyone looking for real results." Cindy

I am in my fifth session with John. He is super professional, kind, flexible, and knowledgable. I have already started seeing results and am excited about improving my physical complexion in the months and years ahead with his guidance.

FAQs

What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I have a degree in Exercise Science and Psychology from Rutgers University. Beyond that, I have 13 years of training with clients, one-on-one in all types of settings and from all sorts of backgrounds. During the years, I've been certified as a Movement Specialist with Functional Movement Systems, Pre and Post Natal training through ACE, a Personal Trainer with National Academy of Sports Medicine, an Health Fitness Specialist through American College of Sports Medicine, CrossFit Level I, Olympic Weightlifting Coach, Hardstyle Kettlebell certification, TRX certified and Precision Nutrition Certification Level 1 and 2.
What types of customers have you worked with?
I help transform my clients' lives through weight loss and fat loss programs, designed specifically tailored around their needs and capabilities. My clients have ranged from busy professionals in the city looking to put on muscle, to working moms with just a couple of hours to spare per week.
What advice would you give a customer looking to hire a provider in your area of work?
Not all Personal Trainers are created equally. Some look good, but only have worked with people that are like themselves, people gung-ho about working out. Make sure they're certified and it's their career, otherwise, you're hiring someone based on good genetics and not knowledge.
