I first started working with Jon in 2017 a few months before my wedding. He worked with me on my goals with weight loss, getting fit, and feeling strong. I loved the accountability and motivation that came along with training sessions.
It was also important for me that I had workouts trailered to me and my body- Jon kept this in mind and adjusted workouts to fit my needs. I felt in control of my health and wellness and felt
great on my wedding day!
I didn’t want sessions to end just because I got married since I saw so many benefits. I have worked with Jon on and off over the years and even started up virtual sessions throughout my pregnancy in 2020-2021 and again during postpartum. It has been amazing having someone tailor workouts according to my goals as they have changed overs the years. Jon not only is knowledgeable and an overall excellent trainer, but he has continued to be supportive, compassionate, and always made working out more fun!

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!

Came here for summer training to build my strength and agility for preparing to return to a division 1 sport! Jon was great in creating my training plan, and incorporated exercises that were tailored to my specific sport and needs.

Jon is a very reliable, knowledgeable and effective trainer. Has excellent gym-floor manor with a warm, patient, and “just the right” motovational touch to push you perfectly to maximize performance. Very knowledgeable about proper physical fitness building and exercise techniques. Certainly a capable programmer for a variety of workouts and routines. Highly recommend working with Jon to achieve your fitness building goals and help deliver optimal outcomes you may be seeking.

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.
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’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.

I started with Jon Linchitz barely 8 weeks ago and I am super impressed at the way his strength training program has taken me from barely able to complete a 10 lb set of Goblet squats to doing a set of 65 lb back squats, in only 16 sessions, among many other progressive weight exercises.
Granted that I had some training before the pandemic with a different trainer at another gym, so l came in with some experience and a faint memory of the proper techniques. After being away from the gym for 3 1/2 years, I had very little expectations and no timeline for myself. I knew I was grossly out of shape, but vowed just to show up and see what happened. I’m glad I found Jon on Yelp and that he promptly called me back. I decided to go in for his free assessment and I was sold on his 20+ years of experience and kind, respectful demeanor. Plus great tips for stretching, fueling and recovery. Sports lab is a great gym to practice at too! It’s well equipped and always clean.
