St. John's Personal Training

CONTINUOUS IMPROVEMENT

If you’re the type of person who is always looking to improve, you’re our kind of person. Our clients start with us to work on their health and fitness. They stay with us when they see how the rest of their life improves, too.
CUSTOM WORKOUTS IN A GROUP ENVIRONMENT

Get the best of both worlds: a custom plan tailored to your needs, current ability and desires and the support from the JKC community, while they work on their goals right beside you.
BUILD A SOLID FOUNDATION

At JKC, we emphasize exercise technique above everything else. Learn the fundamentals of strength training so you can perform exercises correctly, to (a) stay safe and (b) maximize your results.

WE HAVE YOUR BACK

Receive unconditional support from our coaches and our fitness community in our non-judgemental gym environment. And don’t worry, you won’t find ‘bros’, tasteless gym-selfies or scary people here.
WE’RE EDUCATED, EXPERIENCED & CREDIBLE

Our coaches have Bachelor and Master’s Degrees in Kinesiology and credentials with the top fitness associations in North America.
AGE IS NOTHING BUT A NUMBER

We don’t discriminate the old nor the young. Everyone, at any age, deserves to be the strongest, fittest version of themselves. We have clients that range from low-20s to mid-70s.

NO EXPERIENCE NECESSARY

Little to no workout experience? No problem. We have helped many people like you reach and surpass their fitness goals. Have lots of experience or stuck in a rut? Not a problem. We can go over your form and teach you new exercises.
WE OFFER FLEXIBLE SCHEDULING

No locked-in days or times here. The training schedule is open to all of our clients. If we have an opening, you can book it. Schedule your gym sessions around your work and life commitments so you don’t have to miss a workout.
PAY AS YOU GO

Enjoy a different fitness experience. We aren’t focused on your money, we’re focused on your results. You’ll enjoy the flexibility and no-pressure environment of paying for training on your terms. No contracts, hidden fees or lost sessions. Pay for workouts as you do them.

“Since starting at JKConditioning with poor posture and muscle imbalances, and after a thorough assessment and exercises chosen for my issues, I now suffer less pain, have better posture, strength and mobility. I also trusted JKC to design my workouts pre- and postpartum and had much success! JKC is my go-to gym for all my fitness needs.”
“I started training at JKC 2 years ago with the hopes of becoming a better runner, and today, I am running faster and stronger than I ever thought possible. Because of Jon’s running experience and regular contributions to running magazines, I trust JKC to help any endurance athlete improve their performance.”
“I decided to join a gym that had coaches qualified to deal with my 15 year old injury when I reached a plateau with the chiropractor. In a year and a half at JKConditioning, I have experienced great improvement in my alignment, flexibility, energy level, and mood. I highly recommend JKC.”

“It has been so refreshing and life-changing to find such a professional, fun and supportive environment at JKConditioning. Thanks to Jon and Thomas, I continue to meet and exceed my fitness goals. I highly recommend anyone, from little experience to those in a rut to try JKC. They can help!”
“I started with JKC almost 5 years ago when I was 60 and was worried about getting injured while training, but the coaches here were able to work around my old injuries, significantly improve my fitness level and more importantly keep me injury free. I’m highly impressed with this gym.”
“I am a mother of three with a full time career and an unpredictable schedule, and because of JKC’s flexible booking system, I have never missed a workout since I became a client, almost 3 years ago! I think any physician or person with a varying schedule will really like the flexibility JKC has to offer.”

JKConditioning is a private fitness training facility located in the centre of St. John’s, Newfoundland, Canada. We offer personal training, in a group training environment, and design exercise programs based on your goals and current ability. No cookie-cutter programs here! As you progress, so does your program.

Our mission is to provide people, of all abilities, with the best coaching and challenging, yet appropriate workouts, in a non-judgemental, non-intimidating, supportive and enjoyable gym environment.

“I believe everyone deserves to realize their true potential in strength, fitness and health. Helping people with exercise and fitness is not just part of our “job description” – it is our passion and life. We get to improve people’s lives with our expertise and that pushes us to constantly improve our knowledge and methods.

We assess your barriers to safe and efficient movement, which allows us to choose the best exercise variations and design the most effective exercise program for the current you. As you adapt and progress, so does your program. We design workouts to make you better, not to see how much we can make you sweat.

Want to train with us? Apply to join. We’d love to hear from you.”
