James was very quick at responding to my request. James was able to meet my needs by coming to my home garage gym and train me. James was always on time and very professional during every session. I initially decided on a package deal with James for 16 sessions which was a great value due to the fact that he was coming to me at my home gym. James is knowledgeable and was able to design a routine specific to me as I am an aging athlete and over 30 year tennis player with a bad shoulder. It was easy to communicate with James and he made me push harder. I have decided to continue with James and would highly recommend him.

I’ve been working with James a few weeks now and I’m really impressed by his high level of attentiveness. He has a way of making you feel at ease during his sessions, and puts a great deal of thought into tailoring your workouts to meet your goals. For anyone considering a personal trainer who is relational and commitment to delivering results, I’d highly recommend James.

I have been an athlete my entire life and have had many injuries that have followed me over time. James and I started training together many years ago and he immediately offered to help me with my injuries. I can honestly say that without his help I wouldn't still be exercising. I had severe knee and back problems that he helped me through.
In addition to that, I have gone to James many times over the years for guidance on weight training, conditioning, and diet. He always has insightful advice. One thing I enjoy most is that James takes the time to understand exactly what your specific problems and desires are and helps you achieve them. He cares about you getting results.
I am confident that anyone who works with James will get great results if they follow his advice. Whether they are an athlete or someone looking to get in better shape.

I never felt comfortable in a gym until I had the opportunity to train with James. His diverse background of training styles made him the perfect coach for me while I navigated my way through my fitness journey. So far he's trained me to perform Olympic lifts, high volume plyometric workouts, any and all TRX-style training, body building and physique training, as well as how to properly warm up, cool down, stretch and foam roll. Additionally he totally opened my eyes when it comes to mobility, which has kept me injury-free. He's also taught me how to know when to rest and how to recognize that I can push myself just a little bit further. Regardless of your goals, invest in someone who lives and breathes this lifestyle; James can guide you because he's actually taking his own advice. I promise you'll be inspired, mentored and changed after training with this guy.
