J Lau Training

Private Gym

Don’t like the feeling of people watching you in the gym? Come train with me in my private home gym. This residential setting is outdoors with fresh open air and a nice breeze; best of all, your hard work isn’t public. I personally dislike talking about personal things within earshot of other gym members, which is why since the pandemic, I have not gone back to a regular gym. Come train in a private setting where we can talk without being overheard by others & train without being interrupted by others.

Putting the “Personal” in Personal Trainer

I am not here to just count reps for you like some trainers in a gym.  I want to discuss your goals and known obstacles, understand your lifestyle and how you define fitness success.  My goal is to give you a toolset to be successful, to watch your technique to make sure we don’t have a setback with injuries, and to establish a personal relationship to keep you motivated & accountable on your fitness journey. 

For every type of trainee!

I have experience working with people from all walks of life, from professional athletes, to geriatrics, those rehabbing injuries, and folks simply seeking a healthy change in their life! No matter your goal, I am confident I can build a dynamic fitness plan that meets your needs and grows with you as you progress. 

Long Term Success

For me, personal training is not just about fitness, it’s about overall health & lifestyle choices. I want to help you develop healthy habits that are attainable for your lifestyle. I take the approach that I want you to not need me anymore, that means I have done my job as a coach. As your personal trainer, I will teach you everything I know to get you the results you desire, and I’ll share my professional advice as I monitor your technique. I know that I will not be with my clients for the rest of my life or their lives, but in our time together, I want you to adopt healthy lifestyle habits, learn techniques to exercise safely, and accept that while your fitness journey will be imperfect, you will be fully equipped to attack any scenarios so that you don’t fall off the health wagon.

Call for a free consultation. 

There we can discuss your goals, where you are in your journey and get a feel for my training style.
