JPX Performance: Exercise Physiologist

Jose has been a fantastic mentor. Not only has he fully customised every aspect of the training programme for me, but he has been in constant contact to ensure I was happy with my progression and to check if I had any questions relating to the exercises. He has helped with training, nutrition, and more complicated rehabilitation issues. He identified weaknesses/imbalances early on via a comprehensive orientation session which informed the route the training then took. I cannot recommend him enough.

I have been training with Jose on and off since November 2016. I had next to little knowledge of my way around the gym when I first started training with Jose. In fact that was the main reason for engaging Jose. Since then, I have trained with Jose to prepare for running a marathon and more recently to overcome and manage niggling knee pain and pain in my arm after playing badminton. Every time I have started a new training program with Jose I have been very impressed by his initial assessment of my fitness (and weakness) levels and subsequent development of a personalized training plan to achieve my goals. In addition to achieving my goals training with Jose has been a great learning experience. This includes things like the correct use of gym equipment, form and posture to maintain while performing the exercises, gaining knowledge about the body’s bio mechanical movements and sources of pain that I have experienced, and proper warm up exercises to avoid injury. Another great thing about Jose is that he is always looking to further his own knowledge through both his own research and through formal courses which I think is a great testament to his dedication to his profession and ultimately helps his clients.Finally I found Jose to be very patient and passionate when it came to ensuring that I was following his instructions. So if you are looking for someone to help you achieve your fitness goals or help you with long term solutions to overcome pain experienced with playing sports then Jose’s the right person to help you. I would highly recommend booking a consultation with Jose.

I have been training with Jose for 3 months now and in that short period of time he has shown to be very professional, knowledgeable and committed to helping me achieve my goals.I train with Jose twice a week one-on-one, where he breaks down and explains my exercises in-depth and the science behind how they will benefit me.Jose makes my program challenging with a variety of different exercises with a big focus on technique throughout the sessions in order to prevent any injuries.I think the best part is he is honest and realistic about my goals, which allows us to continually map out and track my progression throughout the program.I highly recommend going and seeing Jose and having a chat about how he might be able to help you achieve your fitness goals.

I reached out to Jose 6 months ago as I have been a long time sufferer of lower back pain. I have seen practitioners over the years for treatment but that only gave me short term relief. Jose has educated me on the weaknesses that have contributed to the pain, and tailored a strength training programme. I could not be more happy with the progress made and how much the pain has improved.I highly recommend Jose not only for his knowledge but for the investment he makes in you as a client. He is warm and genuine with zero pretence, and an amazing coach!

If you are looking for a professional with a wealth of knowledge, that is welcoming, encouraging and motivating to improve your health and well being, Jose is your man.I had attempted some training prior to meeting Jose which resulted in some injuries, on top of some existing problems with my hips and shoulders. Jose was immediately able to identify the problems, and began working on a series of precise exercises, backed up with knowledgeable and easy to understand explanations of the mechanisms of each movement.Within a short period of time those issues have now been rectified, and I can honestly say my body has never felt better and I am looking forward to the next stage of development with Jose.Highly recommend his services!

I completed my practical hours with Jose for my Exercise Science Accreditation.He has been a great mentor, encouraging me to ask questions and to be involved in the clients programs.He is highly skilled and knowledgeable in his field and I am very appreciative to have had him as my mentor.

I'm a 57 year old woman. I presented to Jose with a niggle in my righthand side lower back and joint stiffness. The former had been lingering for about 9 months with physio treatment not solving the problem. I had been a devoted yogie and walker and Jose identified an area that needed strengthening and some old exercise habits that needed addressing . I have been seeing Jose for a few months now working on strengthening my glutes, hips and upper leg muscles. I can definitely feel an improvement. The exercises are tough and completely out of my comfort zone but have found persevering reaps rewards. I always feel great after my gym session, legs feel like jelly but my back feels wonderful:) Thank you Jose. You're a gem.

Over the last 6-12 months Jose has been assisting myself with both injury rehabilitation and general strength and conditioning. Being an SBL basketball player I will often have small niggles and mechanical weaknesses that develop throughout the season as a result of increasing minutes played in both games and practices.An example of this would be the large amounts of time we spent rehabbing a small micro tear and general tightness in both my achilles tendons. Jose outlined some possible problems from the start and we immediately started work on bringing down soreness. Over the cause of about a month Jose was constantly checking up with me to note specific details about everyday soreness/progression.Something that separates Jose from any other trainer I have had is his attention to detail and willingness to educate himself over and over again to find the solution to his client’s problems. In our case he found through both reading and application the solution to our issue, and my achilles has been pain free.Jose has done great work for me with regards to working through not only the small niggles but also with general strength training. Working through refining techniques for squats, dead lift and bench press has been a large focus of 2020 so far, and I am seeing great results moving both my deadlift and bench press maxes about 10-15 kg’s. Jose’s dedication to teaching these lifts the correct way is also something I’ve found invaluable; he understands that most times the root cause of injury is improper lifting and his philosophy revolves around fixing that root problem that many lifters and athletes have.I have recommended Jose to anyone that would require his services, he is a great person who works extremely hard to further his own career while taking care of his family. Jose has become a good friend and I’m so very thankful that he has worked with me for so long

I’ve started seeing Jose after my microdiscectomy surgery on L5/S1. I needed someone to help me get back on feet after so many months in bed and build up my strength back. I am very satisfied with the results so far, there is still so much room for improvement but I am happy that I have such a patient and competent specialist who’s closely monitoring me throughout our sessions and giving me some tips that I wish some doctors would have told me upfront. Looking forward to achieve new outcomes soon.Thank you Jose

I've been working with Jose for a few months and the exercises he has me doing have helped so much in healing an old injury. He has an amazing approach and philosophy, one that brings the body back into optimal functioning.
