JM Personal Training - Guelph, Ontario

JM Fitness is hands down the best decision I’ve made for my health and wellness. Unlike all the fad diets and social media “experts” who claim to know what you need without knowing you, Jon took the time to understand me - my habits, my lifestyle, and what actually works for my body.

Funny enough, I’m working out less and eating more than I was when I was trying to figure it all out myself. Turns out, following random fitness trends or restrictive meal plans wasn’t the answer - having a tailored, sustainable plan was.

And the best part? This isn’t some unrealistic, all-or-nothing program. I literally ran into Jon at the LCBO when we got to talking, which just proved it was meant to be - because guess what? You’re still allowed to enjoy life, have a drink, and live in balance. This is a lifestyle, not a diet, and I finally feel like I’ve found something that works for me. Highly recommend!

I have been training with Jana & Jon for a decade and they are fantastic! They really helped me learn how to lift properly . Now working with Luke is just as great!
Luke’s training and involvement helps us in our group classes —to do each lift/ exercise properly too.
I’m very happy with my 7am workouts at studio.

Working with Jana over the past few months has helped me tremendously in regaining confidence, and strength in my postpartum journey. Jana is a true expert in her field and works tireless to connect with her clients, create individualized plans and has gone above and beyond to help me reach my goals. Working with Jana has truly changed my life and I couldn't be more grateful to have a trainer, coach and now friend to guide me and help me feel my best in this very important and transformative time in my life. Her knowledge is unparalleled and her care for her clients unmatched . Thank you to Jana from the bottom of my heart, and to the whole team at JM fitness.

Jon and Jana have been an integral part of our fitness lifestyle for the past 2 1/2 years. Their new location is very convenient to people like us who live in the downtown and the classes they offer have been fantastic! My wife and I have had Jon as our personal trainer and lifestyle coach, but even more so he is a good friend. Our kids have started in on classes, and they enjoy the energy that all the staff have in helping people. We are very lucky to have JM Training in our lives!

JM Training has been life changing for me. The owners and all trainers have been nothing but welcoming & encouraging and have taught me so much. The gym is clean and well set up with everything you and the trainers need. I've been working specifically with Alex Tohivsky for almost a year now and he has helped me improve my mobility tremendously, lose 20 lbs, put on muscle & keep things fresh and interesting the entire time. Personalized workouts, nutrition coaching, emails through out the week with valuable information, goal setting and accountability is what you can expect. Thanks so much to Alex and the JM team!

I have been attending one-on-one training sessions at JM Personal Training for over 6 months now and it has truly been a life changing experience. After having 3 kids in close succession and a few decades sitting at a desk for work, my body felt tired, weak and imbalanced. My posture was suffering and I had chronic tension. Now, I feel stronger, more energetic and motivated to continue on my fitness journey. It has led to spin off benefits like improved nutritional habits and a regular running routine. The trainers are kind, knowledgeable and thoughtful and really make an effort to start where you are at and work up gradually. I couldn't recommend them highly enough!

I cannot say enough good things about JM Personal Training. I contacted Jana this year prior to my birthday because I decided that this was the year I would change my eating and fitness habits for good and it was by far the best decision I have ever made! I first joined a 4 week detox group that Jana had set up as I had to wait a few weeks for my first personal training session (there was a waiting list so that should tell you how GREAT JM training is). The 4 week detox was the perfect jump into the beginning of my new lifestyle. I continued on to do 12 personal training sessions with Jana and now religiously follow the program she designed for me!!! I have NEVER felt better or had better results! I plan to join some of her classes and have more sessions with her in the spring next year!!! My only advice is to take the leap with JM training because you will not regret it!

A few years ago I noticed Jana and John training at a local gym I attended. It was apparent that they cared greatly about giving excellent training to their clients each time. They also had such an approachable and friendly demeanour. I decided then and there, that if I were to seek personal training, I would go to one of them. At some point they left the gym I was at and I didn’t know where they went. It wasn’t until about a year ago I saw their sign at Downtown Guelph. They had opened up their own location. This January I went for it and contacted Jana to get some training sessions set up. I was extremely exhausted and tired in my body and mind - since I had had a really stressful year. And being very sedentary at work, was not helping. I have always cared about healthy living, but at this point in my life, trying to set up a plan for myself was just another task that I did not have time nor energy for. Seeking a professional, i felt, was my best option.

When I met with Jana I was really hoping that I would either get her or John as a trainer. We weren’t able to make it work with our schedule so Jana assigned me one of the trainers from her team. At first I was a little disappointed because my impression of Jana and John was the reason I went to them in the first place. However, Jana assured me that all her trainers have to adhere to standards and care as much about their clients as her and John would. So with that I went to my first sessions...

...And I was blown away. I got such attentive, encouraging and great training throughout. It is clear to me that Jana and John do not hire just 'anyone' to work and represent their training business. I could not have gotten a better matched trainer with my personality and training needs.

Recently my trainer moved on to different career opportunities so Jana ended up taking me over as her client. She has been nothing but accommodating, professional and always so lovely in her demeanour making the transition work as seamlessly as it can be. I have already had a few sessions with her and it is so impressive to see that the excellent care provided is no less between trainers.

I have so far lost almost 10% body fat, become stronger, more mobile (which is so reliving for someone that does not have the natural gift of ‘flexibility’). I have more energy overall and clarity of mind. In turn have been able to manage and be more efficient in my busy work and daily life. Highly recommend this place. It is worth every penny!
