First rate classes and PT sessions! You want results? Jack is the man for you. Through following his advice and workouts I can now do unassisted pull ups! Not bad for a woman at 38 years old. Starting to see changes else where on my body too! I've always gone to the gym but until I got instruction from Jack i've never had these results...one happy girl :)

I sit on my arse at a desk all week, I enjoy my weekends and I can't stand gyms. Keeping myself in some sort of shape is a struggle but I've been going to Jacks bootcamp sessions once a week for maybe 2 months now and Im not looking back. I was noticeably fitter after just a couple of weeks and Im now looking forward to the next session - something thats never happened when Ive been into gym/running/swimming/cycling. The sessions are relentless and by the time youre finished youre dead on your feet but Jack keeps the energy up throughout, keeps you motivated and about an hour after you feel brilliant! Ive never been into this sort of stuff before but its paying off in buckets and I might even be starting to enjoy it, Ill be booking on twice a week before long. Cant recommend it enough!

I started using Tibbs around June as a personal trainer at a local gym and started doing the Primal Combat and Boot camp classes around August.Both the personal training and the classes are amazing. I had all but given up on personal trainers as I found they set goals and weights which were easily achievable and the programs provided seemed to be generic rather than be focused on my needs and desires. To me these trainers provided nothing different to working out on my own as I felt I pushed myself just as much without them. However I decided to give using a trainer a go one last time at the local gym just to get another training programme. It was clear early on there was something different with Tibbs (one of the trainers with Jackjon). Due to some medical conditions mobility is a key area of development for me along with endurance with strength being a distant third. I now train with Tibbs 2 to 3 times a week as I find that his sessions have another unexpected benefit. I can get quite anxious and very nervous at times and in the past the best cure for this was a pint or few. It turns out that exercise does a better job at keeping anxiety in check than booze ever did. I have had rave reviews from my bosses and students alike over the past few months- I am more confident, more energised, happier and this serves to make me and my classes more interesting and fun. But if fitness is more your bag I have also lost 10kg in weight, almost doubled my strength on squat and bench press, increased the distance I can run to 13 miles, and made huge improvements on my flexibility. Just as the personal training steers clear of doing generic routines so too do the classes. The Primal Combat is done by Tibbs and is an amazing mix of pad work and circuit training which also incorporates a lot of working with others (in pairs). Not only does this build your fitness it allows you unleash any frustrations, agitations or worries through your fists into the pads allowing you to go home and end your evening chilled. The Bootcamp is a circuit with running and even a team game involving tyres. As with all circuits this is a full body cardio workout, but one that has been Jackjoned. The exercises not only build your endurance but also your mobility and the first few times you turn up you will be introduced to muscles you never knew you had- things like jousting lunges or bunny hops with barrels make use of stabilising muscles I never knew I had. The classes are also amazing because those that run them (Tibbs, Jackjon and Katy) are a really good laugh meaning that before you know it you're making new friends (something of an achievement for me as this normally only happens over a pint) and enjoying yourself- though don't think they'll be soft once the class starts. Much longer review than I was planning so here is the TLDR bit. If you have tried classes in gyms or have used personal trainers before and have been disillusioned by what you have received then give JackjonPT a shot. They understand that exercise isn't just about muscles, it's about who you are
