About
I help busy adults build sustainable fitness habits so they can get stronger, lose weight, feel more confident, and create a healthier lifestyle without extreme diets or overwhelming workout plans.
What makes my coaching different is that I focus on more than just workouts. I combine personal training, behavior change coaching, accountability, mindset, and nutrition guidance to help clients create lasting results.
Clients often tell me they appreciate:
• Personalized workouts tailored to their goals, fitness level, injuries, and schedule
• Positive energy, motivation, and accountability
• A supportive coaching style that pushes them while making fitness enjoyable
• Flexible in-home and virtual training options
• Sustainable strategies that fit real life
I’m an ACE Certified Health Coach, Certified Personal Trainer, Behavior Change Specialist, Weight Management Specialist, and Precision Nutrition Certified Coach. My mission is simple: help people become stronger, healthier, and more confident while enjoying the process.
Whether your goal is fat loss, strength, energy, consistency, or simply feeling better in your body, I’ll meet you where you are and help you build momentum one step at a time.

James is the BEST trainer! He listens to your needs and is very professional and precise in his method. He protects your body by correcting you to make sure you do not injure yourself. He helps set goals, and keeps you motivated. Very positive and uplifting too! James loves what he does and it clearly shows when he shows up to sessions and helps pump you up.

James is a passionate, committed, and dedicated personal trainer. His worth ethic is inspiring and second to none. My mom and I worked with James to build healthy habits and transform our pandemic sedentary lifestyle. Now, after working with James for many months, I feel the strongest I have ever been. James holistic approach focuses on the whole picture of health, not just the image of a fit body. James coached me through strength training, cardio, and nutrition. James is an active listener who would assist and tailor my goals. I learned about ways to stay loyal to myself and my goals through our weekly coach chats on the phone with James. It was never about being perfect but about building a healthy daily lifestyle routine. James gratitude practice has made me slow down and reflect more on what I am grateful for in life. I am grateful for James, and all that he taught me. James as a coach was consistent, flexible, and always encouraging. Additionally, James is engaging and funny. He made the sessions fun and enjoyable. 10/10 would recommend James King III!

I have been working out for over 30 years and worked for Golds Gym corporate for seven years. I have worked with many personal trainers in my life. I have never met a more knowledgeable, more focused, more considerate, and professional trainer than James King. I would recommend him to anyone who takes their health and fitness seriously.

I have tried connecting another health, wellness and life coaches before and none of it ever stuck until James. He is an absolute master of his craft, he will be your biggest fan, your number one supporter, and make your success in learning lifelong habits his own personal goal. I truly dont know where he finds the time and space to authentically connect with all his clients but I genuinely look forward to all my virtual calls with James. He listens, and adapted a workout schedule, diet and health practices to my busy schedule and wanting to be able to do everything from home without a gym membership. To anyone even considering a coach I can say with 100% certainty to look no further. There has not been a better investment that I have made into my own personal physical and mental health then my time spent learning and being coached by James.
