About
I LOVE what I do because it's not a job, it is my passion. I truly care about what my clients want to accomplish and I want them to go above and beyond. I get my clients fit and healthy for life. With a Bachelor’s of Science degree in Fitness & Wellness from Oakwood University in Huntsville, Alabama and a Master of Sport Science degree in Sport Fitness from the United States Sports Academy in Daphne (Alabama), and as a Master Certified Personal Trainer Phase II with AAA/ISMA, I have over 25 years of experience in the Health & Fitness Industry—both as an educator and as a consultant. I am that guy that helps people reach their fitness goals and specializes in bridging the gap to the next level.
Seeing the smile on my clients faces and knowing they have fought hard to lose weight or gain healthy weight gives me the greatest joy. I love the 'high fives' of accomplishment, conversations, and the trust my clients have that I can get them where they want to be.

I met Jovon through Thumbtack after searching online for several days for a personaltrainer. I was ready to get back into a workout routine after leaving a local gym 6 months prior. I knew that I needed accountability and someone with professional knowledge to help get me into shape.
The first time I met Jovon, I came to the gym where we talked about my goals and how long I wanted to work with him. I was so hesitant to commit to anything longer than 3 months, but after working with him for 3 months now, I am so glad I did! I am really starting to see a change in my strength, my muscles are more toned, and I just feel better in my skin. Seeing results only motivates me more!
The first couple of weeks were tough because I was so out of shape. The fist day, I was ready to quit after the first 5 minutes. Jovon always pushes me to the limit, but encourages me every step of the way, and that is exactly what I needed. I work with Jovon 3 times a week, and never know what to expect the next time I come in. He is very innovative with the various exercises, and I look forward to what he has planned the next time.

I just started with Jovon. But the experience has been wonderful. I can already tell a difference. He pushes you when you want to give up. I need that person telling me I can do 5 more. I workout on my own in between our sessions and he noticed. Which of course made me feel good. Every time we meet it's different and we are always having fun. He has advised me about my nutrition too which has helped. If you need a friend in your corner Jovon is for you!! I highly, highly recommend him.

This is the best training I have ever received. Not only has Jovon worked within my physical limitations, but he has worked on those limitations to build strength and balance which I never dreamed I would have. I feel so much better and look forward to these sessions every time! Its the best totrure I have ever had! Its WONDERFUL!

Jovon Times has been my personaltrainer since July 2016 and he had been asking me for over a year to come and see what he does at his facility. He had listened to my stories of my health care concerns and needs and promised that he could deliver the results I needed. Since my first visit and joining his facility, I have lost several inches, I have an ENORMOUS amount of energy to get through my day and the health concerns including joint pain have significantly DECREASED! The size of the gym is perfect. It is not so large that you have to search for the equipment you need and Jovon is always available during normal hours to ask for help when it is needed. The group training sessions help because it allows me the opportunity to work hard toward my goals with others who may have the same goals as I do. The training sessions also allow me the personal time to ask questions and get good information I need about my form and how I am doing my exercises so I do not hurt myself. I love this gym better than any of my other gym experiences because I feel like Jovon cares about my well being. That makes the world of difference to me. I really think everyone that reads my message should really come to 214 Main Street in Ft Mill and check out what he does and join! You will not be disappointed!
