I’m so glad that I decided to train with James. After having a baby, and having a long period of time off, James helped me get back into the swing of it all and feel confident to get into the gym again. James is super approachable and knows what he’s talking about! Every session has need fun and I would absolutely recommend him to anyone looking to get fit!

A gym for real people! What ever your looking for, better fitness, become stronger, loose weight James is the man you need to come and see. He is very knowledgeable and extremely helpful, he is on hand every step of the way to advise when ever needed. There is no judgment when you walk in, everyone who attends are real, normal people who are on the same journey and there is always a good banter to boot!

JN FITNESS, A great place to start, learn and grow with your fitness journey. As a complete novice to the gym, I was a bit unsure what to expect. As soon as I got started James made me feel at ease, very helpful and explained how we would go forward with my training. Over the past few weeks I’ve felt confident in what to do and how to do it, understanding techniques and the benefits. I’ve also come to realise it’s not somewhere you go and then leave, it’s a social thing where you also get to meet people and make friends. JN FITNESS is well worth a visit for anyone, any age, just give it a go, no stress, no judgment, just some very nice people.

If you are looking for someone who really cares about your person journey, someone who will create a bespoke experience completely catering to your specific needs and dreams, go see James. His infectious personality makes even the most "can't be bothered days" enjoyable with his own blend of humour and charisma. I feel safe there, with someone who knows what they are doing, pushes me out of my comfort zones, who doesn't judge and builds a community where you feel part of the in crowd.

I was so uneasy about joining P.T but James made me and my husband so confident, conftable, we always have a laugh while he pushes us enough to work hard and set higher goals for ourselves. The way he checks in and supports us is so genuine, he he such a good trainer, knows what he's talking about and shows you while explaining if anyone is unsure. His gym is perfect size as no more than 6 people in the room at a time so you can always ask him anything about your form, reps, how to position your knees or elbow. Truly the best P.t I've been with, so greatful to be part of his team

I’ve been training with James for 8 months now and it’s hands down one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. After a lifetime of struggling with my self-esteem, bad eating habits and a terrible relationship with exercise, I’m finally at a place where I’m healthy and happy! James is incredibly knowledgeable and one of the kindest, most supportive personal trainers you could ever hope to meet. Whether you want to improve your confidence in the gym, learn to do a press-up or improve your fitness levels… James will work with you to get you there! I can honestly say that thanks to James’s continuing support and encouragement, I’m the strongest, healthiest and happiest I’ve ever been. The community at JNFitness is very welcoming and friendly and James makes everyone feel like part of the family!

I've been training with James for around 6 weeks now and it has made going to the gym so much less daunting. I'm feeling more confident in the gym thanks to James' support.As well as being supportive, James is great, and a good laugh, so sessions are fun at the same time. The other members in the semi private personal training sessions are all lovely and supportive too, which makes the experience better.

James is an absolute 5⭐️ fitness instructor and I cannot recommend him more highly.I'm a 68 year old lady who was petrified of going to the gym but now thanks to James I love it.James is very very professional, courteous at all times and tailors the training to your own personal needs and requirements.His training sessions are attended by small groups with differing ability but everyone both boosts and encourages each other.I joined last year and I wouldn't go anywhere else.Thank you James 😊

Initially joined JNF to get in shape for my wedding but stayed on long after as I found a really lovely bunch of people and James who knows his stuff. We train hard but have a laugh along the way! If you’re looking for a friendly, safe space to train with guidance from someone who actually knows what they’re talking about then JNF is the place for you!

The first time I trained with James I found out from the off that going to the gym could actually be enjoyable, not a chore.He has taught me the importance of finding something you actually have interest in rather than doing the mundane workouts.Training with James has led me to have the confidence, strength and required fitness to compete for Wales at international level in Pickleball.Without James’ help, guidance and friendship I would still be struggling to find motivation on a daily basis and be facing the challenges that living an unhealthy lifestyle would bring.

I have been working with James for around a year. In that time James has provided me with unbelievable amounts of support. My confidence in the gym has grown thanks to James’s expert advice.I have never been so consistent with attending the gym and seeing my strength grow has motivated me to keep attending.When attending sessions you are always welcomed with a smile not only from James but other members too!It’s a great space with great people! I am thoroughly enjoying my journey and can’t wait to continue.

I can't stress in words how awesome James is! He's been helping me train around an old shoulder injury and I have loved every single second of my time spent in his presence. I have learned so much in such a short time, and I genuinely can't wait for the next class to start as I'm leaving. He is so patient, knowledgeable and kind, and can bring out the best in anyone! I'm so lucky to have this service on my doorstep and I can't wait to continue learning with James. If you're feeling apprehensive about joining, please take my word and trust me that there is absolutely no need to feel this way, as you will feel comfortable from the second you walk in through the door. Thank you James!

Just coming to the end of a month trial with James in JN FITNESS Tonypandy. James is super helpful, knowledgeable and switched on to individuals needs. Although the sessions are not 1.2.1 he was able to cater for the groups differing needs (usually 6 people) while also adapting and changing exercises for individuals with specific injuries. He is also very encouraging and gently pushes people to achieve their best gym performance. Thank you James. Lesney

Just finished the first month with James and immediately signed up for the next. Signed up to support my daughter but I’m loving it. I’ve been to numerous gyms over the years but always stayed well away from the weights, what a mistake that was. James has helped me loose my insecurities about exercise and is very good at pushing you to do more without you even knowing your doing it. If you are an older Lady like myself, go for it ! James and everyone in the class are so supportive that you’ll love it.

I started with James as my friend had used him and had great results! I was nervous so dragged my mother along with me, everyone is so welcoming. No one cares what you’re doing/how fast, everyone’s there for themselves and it’s such a lovely group! James organises the same workout but adjusts it slightly depending on your ability, I usually do less reps than everyone else but no one cares or even notices! I never thought I’d use weights let alone lift 32.5kg in less than a month. I’m also having help with my food which has taught me so much already about simple dieting, fruit, veg & protein!, even hubby is following the diet plan with me! I’ve already been told I’ve lost weight in a month, and it’s all been at my own pace/around my busy life. Thank you James!
