  • "I am 19 years old. I was looking for someone who could do one-on-one boxing lessons. I just wanted to do something to keep me moving but wasn’t confident enough to sign up for a class. After days of reaching out to other trainers, I found Jon Paul. From the moment we started working together, Jon Paul’s infectious enthusiasm for fitness and his dedication to helping his clients achieve their goals became evident. This review aims to highlight the significant impact Jon Paul had on my physical and mental well-being. From the very first session, Jon Paul was always prepared with tailored workout plans and took the time to explain the rationale behind each exercise, which made me feel confident and motivated throughout our sessions. One of Jon Paul's most outstanding qualities as a personal trainer is his ability to motivate and encourage his clients. He genuinely cared about my progress and consistently pushed me in a positive and uplifting manner. Whether I was feeling tired or facing a mental block, Jon Paul knew how to inspire me to keep going and stay committed to my fitness goals. His unwavering support and belief in my abilities were instrumental in keeping me on track during challenging times. We discussed my objectives at the beginning of our journey, and he regularly tracked my progress. This approach kept me accountable and focused on continuous growth. Jon Paul's adaptability as a trainer was remarkable. He was always attentive to my individual needs, physical limitations, and preferences. If an exercise felt uncomfortable or wasn't producing the desired results, he quickly adjusted the plan to better suit my body and preferences. His personalized approach made the workouts enjoyable and effective. I highly recommend Jon Paul to anyone seeking a knowledgeable, supportive, and results-driven personal trainer who can make a positive difference in their fitness journey. Thank you, Jon Paul, for being an incredible coach. He will help me become the best version of myself."

I’ve worked with all sorts of trainers, yoga teachers, nutritionists etc. I’ve never met anyone that knows the body and how to get the most out of it like JP does. He’s beyond knowledgeable and he cultivates a fun, approachable atmosphere. I can’t say enough great things about him. Highly recommended!"

    Brian S.

  • "I came into Meant to Move with a goal to better myself over 100 days. It’s been 12 days so far and I quickly noticed that JP is not just a personal trainer, he’s a life changer. In 12 days, I already see a difference in my body, working out has become my safe haven, and my mindset has become so motivated and just overall more positive. In 12 days, JP has helped my nutrition and even fixed digestive issues that I’ve had never ending doctor appointments for and nothing has ever been resolved. Until now. Even on his days off, he’s there for me and it’s so clear how much he loves what he does and how much he cares for each and every person. His workouts have me sore for days and I never leave without dripping sweat. I have a smile on my face every time I leave this gym; he just brightens everyone’s day. I am forever grateful that I joined this team, and if you’re thinking about joining, I promise you won’t regret it. So excited to see how my next 88 days go!!"
