Today marks 6 months since I started with Jay and since then I have lost 37 lbs!!!! My clothes feel better, my energy is much higher than before, my confidence is coming back and im starting to look forward to each of our sessions. I'm excited to see how the next several months go. I highly recommend giving him a chance if anyone is starting to look/contemplating improving themselves. Thank you Jay!

Trainer Jay absolutely loves what he does and does this to help people as he could be charging a lot more than he does considering the caliber of trainer that he is on top of that he takes over your nutrition for no extra fees. . Like most of the reviews I have read on here I agree .. Jay is a RESULTS DRIVEN trainer..I have listened to his nutrition advice and never miss my sessions and my body has completely changed in the 9 months I’ve been with Jay.. you just can’t go wrong .. HIGHLY recommend

The first thing that comes to mind when writing this review is that Jay really cares... also the word passionate comes to mind. Jay absolutely loves fitness and it really comes across when he’s training me. I train 5 times a week and couldn’t be happier. Will not find a better trainer (you can waste your time looking but you just won’t ) on top of all of this Most trainers don’t know about Nutrition and how to guide you in this. Trainer Jay provides this for zero extra fees..

Jay is the best! I saw him during my postpartum period and saw results immediately. He’s motivating, super positive and knowledgeable. The sessions flew by! He also kept me on track with my diet and nutrition. I only wish I could have gone more! Will definitely be back to see him.
