Wow! I'm addicted! Jacksonville Fitness Academy has to be one of the best kept secrets in the…read moreJacksonville area! If you're serious about growing physically and pressing past your boundaries safely and professionally, this is the place for you! Led by owners Catherine and Patrick Henigan, their passion and dedication set the tone for a phenomenal experience. The atmosphere is welcoming yet you immediately feel a sense of responsibility to put in work - bring your best. The best part? This facility has a smalltown feel with everything you need to bust your ass and breakthrough to the next level. There are no frills or places to hide. In Catherine's words "this is YOUR workout!" Excellent instruction is provided but the rest is up to you. You have to want it and if you do everything you need is there for you to break past what you think you're capable of and exceed your own expectations. I took the Booty Bootcamp class on Friday evening then got all bold and took the Striking and Conditioning class Saturday morning. I can say that both were tough for me but in the best way! I love the one on one attention to form and how I'm allowed to realize my own potential. Sure I was pushed beyond what I thought I could do. However there was a space where I saw that I needed to decide what I desired because that will help my trainers to better assist me in getting there. I showed up wanting to improve my health by improving my body. I left knowing that there's much more to this for me than that. I'm up for the challenge! It's all about smaller classes for a more personalized and individualized approach. There are also semi-private and private training sessions available in addition to Bad Ass Barre. It's been just about 7 months since the doors opened and I know Jax Fitness Academy will be around for decades to come.

I noticed this place when I used to pick up coffee at Starbucks and decided to check it out after grabbing an iced coffee at the recently opened Bold Bean. First time in I just wanted to get info & see what the details were to be a member. Finally bit the bullet and signed up for a monthly membership which comes with one complimentary training session per month. Booked my first training session for an early morning (on my birthday no less) because if I was going to train, I needed to force my butt out of bed. Telling myself I would do it after a long day at work wasn't going to happen. Met David when I showed up for my session and went through the initial 'getting to know you' stage. He gave me a nice total body workout to assess my strengths & abilities. While I know he wasn't pushing me to my max limit, my leg muscles would definitely beg to differ. Still got up the next day and drug myself in for a short run on the treadmill. Shannon - the owner - who I had signed up with earlier that week, stopped by to say hello. She was excited to see me back in and was checking in on how everything went the day before. I must have had a 'good' time because I continue to go back in to meet David at least once a week. It's definitely not my favorite time of the day, but I have to battle this yelp-bulge somehow.

If you can get past the owners bias towards her individual trainers she has on staff, you will find…read morea conglomerate type of trainer. Some trainers have higher education and years of experience while others have no degree in the related field. Other trainers have the education to back up their title but very little experience in the field. This is why it is so important to by pass the owner when selecting your trainer. Find one who is right for your short and long term goals, someone with a degree in the field, someone who has at least 3-5 years of practical experience and someone you relate to on a personal level. The biggest mistake a client can make is looking at their prospective trainers Instagram and noticing a move that is beyond most peoples realm and whilst enjoying their six pack abs and visioning yourself in them, take a step back and ask yourself, is this really what I need? Do your research fully and put your trainer in your own hands. Also, be careful how much money you put on your account because if your trainer leaves and you can't find one that is comparable, Focus will keep your money or force you to train with another trainer despite your reservations. My past experience with focus leaves me with Cracker Jack box training methods for most trainers. Leaving some clients bored and complacent. Training is movement art and science combined. Make sure your trainer has a pleather of tools in their tool box. Have witnessed most of the trainers in the habitat with very little creativity, energy and motivation.

HyperSwole is a local owned Sports Performance Gym (Owned and Managed by Jacksonville Axemen…read moreMatthew Thornton). Matt Thornton is the Head Strength Coach/Program Designer for the Hyperswole Sports Performance Gym. HyperSwole also has Chris Philips (ONNIT Certified Trainer) and Sean Rutgerson (Head Coach for Jacksonville Axemen/USA Hawks Rugby League Teams). All the coaches are always available and approachable for Fitness Programs, tips, personal training. Hyperswole is not your typical gym. From a quick glance you may think that the gym is intended only for the hardcore fitness\gym fanatics. While the gym does have dedicated members, HyperSwole Sports Performance Gym has a program for every one regardless of age, fitness level and goal. The daily group fitness classes (that can be signed up online/mindbody app) are also posted on the main gym monitor. KidSwole Classes for ages 7-14 are held M,W,F as well a new offering for Senior fitness classes. You always have the option to follow your own workout OR work with one of the coaches to develop a custom tailored workout to meet your fitness goals. All of the artwork around the gym is by Coach Matt. It adds to the uniqueness of the gym and compliments all of the familiar gym equipment. There are rowing machines, xbex bikes, LifeFitness Resistance machines, cable cross-over machine, dumbbbell free weight area, squat and press rack area, and a dedicated deadlift area. Also available are heavy punching bags, weighted/fitness balls, kettlebells, boxes, monster tire/hammer, plate weighted push sleds and even an indoor basketball hoop! As the COVID-19 Pandemic is top of concern with many, all of the gym members and Coaches follow the best practices of proactively sanitizing equipment before and after use. The small group classes also allow to spread apart with space for each participant. While the gym can be busy at times, it is never overly crowded to the point where there is a concern or you have to wait a long time for equipment or machine. This is especially true for typical the peak times of other gyms or fitness clubs. HyperSwole also allows members to additionally sign up for 24 hour gym access (for those who prefer to work out on off hours or at their convenience). Definitely worth a trial! You can always stop by and talk to Matt or one of the coaches with questions. For an idea of workouts or more details check out the website hyperswole.com

The morning classes are early but worth it if you want a circuit training workout that's less demanding. The evening classes are physically demanding. I'm 28 and fairly fit and find it difficult to keep up, and sometimes I need that. Hey also have Pilates and spin by appointment. And they have gym use, but I've not tried those classes or options. Overall I think I got a good deal on Groupon for the bootcamp. The facility is clean, except not all gym goers sanitize after themselves and well that's out of their control so if you're concerned with germs be sure to sanitize before and after your use of weights and machines. The machines may not be the newest out there but they work and there's nothing wrong with them but if you're looking for the gym with tons of machines and cardio options then this may not be for you. But if you want your butt kicked by some bootcamp classes join ASAP.
