What My Clients Have to Say
Creative, dynamic, energetic, and fun. This is how I would describe personal trainer Jay Holby, whom I have had the pleasure of training with for over 2 years. Originally, I had intended to only sign up for 6 sessions, perfect the fundamentals of weight training, and then train on my own. However, after those sessions were completed, I realized the value in having a trainer, especially an exceptional trainer like Jay. During each session, Jay emphasizes the importance of focusing on the muscle that I am working, rather than merely going through the motions. He also motivates me to complete each set to failure, instead of giving up when I feel tired. Each session is different, as he incorporates plyometrics, interval training, free weights and stretching, so that I never get bored with my workout routine. Jay takes the time to listen to my goals and then create a program that is designed to achieve results. My goals were to decrease my body fat percentage and increase my overall strength, endurance and muscle tone. In the last 2 years, I have not only lost 4% body fat, but I successfully completed a strict 14-week training program, which Jay designed specifically to meet the requirements of the Muscletech Transformation Contest. Overall, I feel that Jay's expertise in the fitness industry and the countless sessions he has spent training with me have contributed to my overall knowledge of training and helped me accomplish my goals. Due to my successful training experience, I recommended Jay to other clients and will continue to do so, for those people who are seeking an energetic and friendly personal trainer, who truly cares about his clients. ~ April Bloomfield
Working with Jay Holby, I lost 9% of my body fat and went from a size 18 to a size 12! At 41, I feel that I am in the best shape I've been in 20 years. Now my stamina and strength allow me to keep up with my active 10 and 12 year olds. Before I worked with Jay, I tried to exercise on my own. I injured myself several times through poor technique. I only worked the areas where I was confident I could do the exercise. Since working with Jay I have been able to maintain a consistent regime for almost 2 years. He pushes me to do exercises I never thought I could do, and ensures that I do them without hurting myself! He does all this in a way that makes me look forward to going to the gym. I know I could never have accomplished these changes without his help. ~ Lisa Kjaer-Schade
Jay is an exceptional trainer, especially for those of us who forgot we had a body, or for that matter, that it needed to be exercised! He is the most patient person. He really takes the time to teach the best way to train my body and to fit the program to me as an individual. The program he formulated for me is challenging - but it is one I can do. He is always encouraging and forever looking at ways to improve my workout. He points out results, and has inspired me so much that I look forward to working out. There are many things that are fantastic about working out with Jay, but the one thing I appreciate most is that he takes the time to diminish the intimidation I feel coming to the club. Jay is wonderful; I have had less than sterling experiences with health clubs in the past, and he has made me feel comfortable, at ease and ready to get into shape! ~ Ellen Drummond
I'm 42 years old, and always thought I was just one of those guys who didn't have the genetic makeup to be very muscular. But working out regularly with Jay has taken me to a level way beyond anything I thought was possible. After just two months of following a training program that Jay developed for me, I had the following results:
Jay is conscientious, knowledgeable, and a lot of fun to work out with. He really listened to me and to what I had to say about my fitness goals. Then he developed a training plan designed specifically for me. And, he mixes things up to keep it interesting. Jay keeps me motivated, informed, and extremely involved with my strength training program. I know that I could never have achieved the results I have without the help of a personal trainer. ~ Gary Tyrell |
