Training The Older Adult: Folsom - Folsom, California

John is excellent at customizing your workout so that you get challenged but not injured. This is a valuable skill and not all trainers out there do this well. Be sure to let him know of any prior injuries, arthritis or limitations. Weight lifting is great for building your strength. Many of us older adults know that strength builds bones, prevents dementia, reduces chronic pain, prevents falls and improves recovery from injuries. I highly encourage anyone to try out TOA if your are looking to get stronger. It's never too late.

I have been training with John for several months now after a long several years of neglecting my body. I have a rotator cuff tear along with some normal issues that come along with aging. Since I’ve been training my shoulder feels so much better and I feel stronger and more energetic overall. John is very aware of my issues and very diligent about pointing out anything I’m doing wrong to keep me from getting hurt. I just told him today that this is the first time in a long time I have been able to sit on the floor to wrap Christmas presents without my neck hurting or my back hurting. I can get up off the floor easily and I don’t feel my age of 68 as I did before I started working out. The work out is challenging, but fun and the time goes by super fast being in the class with other fun people. I highly recommend this company. It is worth the investment in yourself! Go for it!

My wife and I are both excited to be doing training with John. We have completed 1 month and already notice a change. He is very attentive to our limitations and plans our class to help and improve our strength and balance. Looking forward to continuing working with John!

I’ve been going to Workforce Fitness Solutions for over 5 months and it’s been a great experience. My over all health has improved and I feel so much stronger today than I did 5 months ago. John really knows his stuff and cares about your goals and success. He takes the time to work on each individuals needs and where they want to be. He’s very knowledgeable and an expert in fitness in my opinion. He’s professional and very up beat and makes you want to work harder.

My wife and I have trained with over five personal trainers throughout the years. John is simply the best! He knows what he's talking about regarding training and provides excellent guidance and workouts. His gym is immaculate. He ensures the highest levels of sanitation and cleanliness. His training has helped us resolve several chronic pain issues. Train with John. You won't regret it!

When I started strength training, I was very inactive, had many aches and pains and was easily injured when I tried to be more active. Long story short, with John’s guidance, I’m now stronger and more active, and less injury-prone.

John is highly trained and knowledgeable and empathetic. He’s also accommodating of folks who aren’t able to work out in person. I look forward to my Zoom sessions and seeing my small group workout buddies. We encourage each other and enjoy giving John a hard time.

I highly recommend Workforce Fitness Solutions for people of all ages who want to live a more active and healthier life.

I started working with John because I've never been able to make myself keep exercising for more than about six weeks. Eight months later, I'm still showing up for workouts. John has a knack for knowing just how much to push me so that I'm working hard but not getting discouraged; how to deal with my elderly and overweight self; and how to work around injuries. He's always got a smile and an encouraging word. I'm very happy to be working with him.

Started working with John when I was experiencing debilitating back pain. John listened to my concerns and developed a plan that quickly reduced my pain, improved mobility and flexibility and strength. He adjusts the workout regime / activity based on how my body feels or is responding. I appreciate his knowledge about what exercise best suites my needs, and mixes up the routines to avoid boredom. John adjusts his approach to meet his clients needs and motivation styles. I highly recommend John.
