Virtus Strength and Speed

If your tired of the same old work out then it’s time to schedule a session with trainer John. He has all the equipment needed and the right technique to get you to your goal. What I like best is that he gets down and dirty too. Unlike other trainers who yell out commands and who seem to be more concerned about their sports attire then their client.
I’ve been an amateur kickboxer for three years now and am thankful for all the crazy work outs John puts me though. He’s well in tune with the body and is a major factor to my extreme lifestyle. I wish there were 6 stars to rate you John. Keep up the good work and tough work outs!

Working out with Jon has been amazing. He strikes the perfect balance of pushing me to work my hardest, and cheering my success. He sets the goals just out of reach, then gives you the tools to exceed what you thought you could do. I’ve learned so much working with him, and *love* the results. At 37, and the mother of two boys, I’m stronger and more fit than I’ve ever been.
Speaking of my two kids — they adore Jon. He has a gift for reaching people of all ages, right where they are.
Want to lose weight? He’ll give you the tools and support to get it done. Want to get strong? He’ll push you every day. Want to improve your athletic skill? You’ll see results like never before.

I attend Jon’s strength and conditioning class Mondays and Wednesdays at Pacific Training Center and I’ve never felt more motivated to push harder during every workout. He makes participants feel welcome by getting to know us and pushing us to our limits on an individual basis even when in a group setting. Heck he even remembers my middle name haha! He ALWAYS gives me a hard time in a serious yet playful way to make me want to work harder while having a few laughs. Absolutely recommend him and his classes! You won’t regret it!

I met Jonathan through my cousin Eddie at Pacific Training Center about 2 years ago and I knew from day one he was the training partner I was looking for that was the whole package in a coach and would help me achieve the daunting goal I had to reverse the damage I had done to my body the last 10 years of my life. I had basically let myself go and was not living life but just existing! I was overweight, out of shape and not loving life but I had a deep desire and determination to lose the weight, get fit and be Happy!!! I knew Jonathan really got my desire and determination and was going to get me there because you can feel his energy when you are working with him. I have trained with other trainers throughout my life and no one had the same enthusiasm, passion and honest desire to help their clients like Jonathan. He believes in his clients and his ability to help you achieve your specific goals. Your goals are his goals and you feel it so you push yourself and every workout is unique, challenging and fun that at times you forget you are working out like your life depends on it. 2 years later I am a whole different person and continue to positively evolve not only in my fitness level but in every other aspect that without Jonathan as my training partner that was willing to work with me and my sometimes challenging schedule I don’t think I would be the Fit and Happy person I am today. If you are looking for a positive and healthy lifestyle change then Virtus Strength and Speed is where you need to go because believe me you will never regret that decision but think why didn’t I go before!

I am an avid gym rat and am always looking for that next program to take me to the next level.
My one week program I did with Jonathan at Virtus Strength and Speed has made me a believer! I live in Brooklyn and that is where I met the owner of this club. His words were very inspiring, but low and behold I meet the guy a week before he is heading out to start his business in San Diego. I kept in touch with him and when I had business out in San Diego, Jonathan signed me up for a 1 on1 session at his facility.
This quaint and personal feel gym had everything. All state of the art equipment with great circulation so I didn’t feel stuffy after my 5^th set of lunges and sprints. Each day the program was different and utilized a core muscle that I wanted to improve. This training session was in June and Jon has emailed me weekly programs to stick to the areas I want to improve and I couldn’t thank him enough for changing my life.
Reasons to try Virtus
1. Trainer — haven’t met anyone who works you out harder
2. Facility — top of the line equipment and speed and quickness machines
3. Cost — this guy could be charging an arm and a leg, but has amazing package deals (10+ sessions are the best deal… I think)
I don’t Unilocal too much, but when I heard he was going up there I wanted to at least help a guy out who has changed my life. Thanks!
