I've been working with Jeff for the past 5 years. We moved back to B'ham 6 years ago for our "old age" and to be nearer to family to help us with that process. I was 79. My daughter-in-law had been working with Jeff for several years as Jeff had been with working with her two sons who were in Jr. and Sr. high school sports, and he had done a great job with them. I could also see a lot of difference in my daughter-in- law and could tell that she was much stronger and also that her rather poor posture was much better and that she was standing very straight and looked very fit and strong. I was very impressed and decided that whoever had been working with her had done a great job. She looked the best I'd ever seen her and she was now in her 50's but looked 10-20 years younger. So I decided to share a class with her. I had worked out, hiked, etc. all my life and was in fairly good shape for my age although I would rapidlly find out that my very active days were over. I immediately liked Jeff and knew that I would love working with him. I am now almost 85 and shudder to think what I would be like if I hadn't been working with him for all these years. I have to admit that it has been a very difficult transition into genuine old age. By far, the hardest changes for both my husband and me have been the steady and rather rapid lose of strength and balance. But thanks to the wonderful care and help from Jeff, we're not nearly as bad off as we could be. I will continue to work with him as long as I can and will hope that he can keep me mobile and able to get in and out of the tub and other such things until the day comes when I just CAN'T any more. But so far I'm doing ok. I would advise any of you are are getting old to work with Jeff. Not only is he an excellent trairner for any age or group, he's fun to work with and is a great encourager to one and all, even the elderly! He is keeping me from becoming decrepit any sooner than I have to. Know this is long, but I didn't say all the nice things I could say about Jeff. He's the best! read more

Best trainer in the state -- I've known Jeff for over 20 years, and throughout all that time, he's been far more than just an incredible trainer. He's been a mentor, a motivator, and someone who genuinely cares about the people he works with. I was fortunate enough to train at Icon Performance while playing football at UAB, and I can honestly say the experience helped shape me both physically and mentally. The work ethic, discipline, and culture Jeff creates in that gym is something special. It's not just about workouts -- it's about building confidence, consistency, and pushing people to become the best version of themselves. Now, years later, I get the opportunity to watch my own kids train under someone I trust and admire, and that means everything to me. There's a lot of comfort in knowing they're learning from someone with not only knowledge and experience, but real character. One thing I've always respected about Icon is the diversity in fitness levels and goals. You'll see pro athletes, college athletes, high school athletes, parents, and everyday people all working side by side. No matter where you're starting from, everyone gets the same energy, encouragement, and attention. Jeff has built more than a gym -- he's built a family atmosphere where people are pushed to grow, supported through the process, and celebrated for the work they put in. I recommend this place to everyone who asks. read more

I'm a middle-aged client who trains with Jeff twice a week, and I genuinely look forward to every session. My main goal has always been to stay strong, healthy and mobile as I get older and he has been the perfect partner for that journey. Jeff is knowledgeable, patient and excellent at creating workouts that challenge me without ever pushing me past my limits. Every exercise is explained clearly and he tailors my program to my body, my energy levels, and my specific goals. I've noticed real improvements in my overall strength, posture, energy and confidence. Things that used to feel hard now feel much easier. What I appreciate the most is the encouraging, positive atmosphere. There's never any judgment at this gym. Steady progress, good conversation, and a focus on long-term health rather than quick fixes is what I get. Training with Jeff has been the best investments I've ever made concerning my health. If you're in your 40's, 50's or beyond and want to build sustainable strength and feel your best I highly recommend Jeff at Icon Performance. Two sessions a week with this trainer have made a bigger difference than I ever expected. read more

This is a PREMIERE fitness training facility. full stop. Mr Green evaluates you and helps you set goals with his Functional Fitness exam. I capitalized the functional fitness because that was my goal. I was tired of getting hurt doing activities that I USED to be able to do without thought of any other than may soreness. Ex: cleaning out garage, heavy lifting, through yard work or even a good ole hike. The minor injuries added up over time, and led to me becoming more and more sedentary and over weignt. Sad. So, Jeff helped me with a good evaluation and alot, I mean ALOT, of encouragement to overcome my shame of weight gain / deterioration of my fitness. When he explained his goal with me would be to reclaim functional fitness that added JOY back to my life, I was ALL IN. He is so enthusiastic and has cultivated a gym environment that feels safe even for someone like me. I am so thankful. Don't hesitate to try it out. The other members are so friendly too. read more
