Hi, I’m Jon Linchitz.

Why Train With Me?

I have over 20 years of personal training experience and have helped hundreds of people from all walks of life, get their lives back.

I was a three-sport athlete turned elite rugby player and track cyclist—10 years competing, national medals in both. But chronic cervical spinal stenosis (painful, debilitating, dangerous) caused temporary paralysis on the field, ending my pro dreams.

I fought back: earned a BA in Biological Sciences from Hunter College (anatomy, physiology, nervous system focus), took all PT prerequisites, and worked at my father’s holistic medical wellness center as a personal trainer—collaborating with MDs, PTs, and dietitians on corrective exercises, nutrition, supplements, and rehab.

Targeted training, nutrition, sleep, and mindset healed me—and revealed my true purpose: helping others escape pain and rebuild strength.

Every challenge was necessary. It built the empathy and insight to connect deeply with clients who feel trapped. I’ve lived it—so I truly get it. 

Your free initial assessment includes a history review, functional eval, and a program designed with your specific needs, top of mind (rehabilitation, strength, mobility, nutrition, etc.)—safe, efficient and progressive.

Let’s get you better, together.

A Few Words From My Clients

I wholeheartedly recommend Jon as a personal trainer.
Jon is an expert in his field and EXTREMELY knowledgeable. He is also kind and motivational. Each session he checked in to see how I was feeling. He provided nutritional guidance and tailored workouts to help me reach my goals. I appreciate his attention, ability to assess what my body needs and make the appropriate adjustments during a workout. He is very patient but also pushed me to lift heavier when I thought I couldn’t. To see myself get stronger and slimmer felt great.
I wholeheartedly recommend Jon as a personal trainer.
Over the 7 months that I trained with Jon, I lost 34lbs. and dropped 4 dress sizes. The only reason I am no longer training with Jon is because I had to relocate.
If you’re considering hiring a trainer who will listen, motivate, and help you reach your fitness goals, Jon is your guy. Call him up, you won’t regret it!
Thank you Jon! You are the best trainer l’ve ever had. Your expertise, guidance, and care transformed my health!

Jon is the best! I was hesitant to spend the money on a trainer but decided to bite the bullet after an initial phone call and meeting. Jon was amazing to work with right from the start. I have a herniated disc in my neck that I get very nervous about but Jon is really well informed about injuries and just body issues in general. Though my youngest baby is 4, Jon also shared some really helpful insights about postpartum body changes.
Jon is hilarious and so fun to work with but also really good at what he does. I saw a difference in my strength really quickly and my stomach started feeling flatter within weeks of working with him – and that is no small feat.
Highly recommend!!

I have had and seen many trainers,
Some are excellent and Jon is one of the excellent ones.
Great attention to detail and ensuring that you get the return that you want on your investment. I am in my 80s and with Jon I have developed the strength I need for my daily routine. One example: arm strength to hold on to the rails in buses. Very important because I often take buses and they rock back and forth.
Jon is the Real Deal!

Jon helped me get into shape quickly before my wedding day! I was able to meet my goals in a short period of time due to all of his help. I lost 20 pounds in 3 months and increased my overall muscle tone. He helped me start on a fitness journey that continued long past my wedding date. He was very professional, engaged with my success and his program really worked and was customized for my body type. He also helped me change my diet to support my goals and the diet changes were small and sustainable. Highly highly recommend working with Jon!

I’ve been training with Jon for 8 years. I can say, unequivocally, that he is by far the best personal trainer l’ve ever worked with. First off, Jon is really easy going and a pleasure to work with. He took the time to fully understand my goals, as well as my specific body mechanics and issues, and create an effective and safe program. Jon will push you but not overdo it as many other trainers tend to do.
Jon is a great listener and is a keen observer, resulting in a workout program continuously tailored and customized to my needs. Jon really cares about my overall wellness, offers nutritional advice, and always keeps the big picture in mind. Since working with Jon I feel amazing and love the way I look. You simply cannot ask for more from a personal trainer.
