I have been a gym user off and on for about 15 years, sometimes more off than on. Then about 18 months to 2 years ago I joined energie fitness. I got my fitness up and then met John. It was the first time I have ever had PT sessions and can only wish I had signed up sooner. In just a few sessions I learnt a whole heap of different exercises to increase my fitness further, it boosted my self confidence and helped me feel healthier and stronger. John has always been supportive, helping me manage my self consciousness, improve my technique and believe in myself. He pushed me when I needed it to leave my comfort zone but never beyond my limits. I always felt that he listened to me and built sessions around the areas I wanted and needed to strengthen, culminating in a 35 second 5km run personal best! I can honestly say that whilst John was my PT, it was the healthiest and fittest I have ever been. Thank you John. More...

John's life coaching sessions has helped me to have more clarity in terms of how I was meeting some of my basic needs in a negative way and to understand how I have been sabotaging myself lately when pursuing some of my goals.
All this covid19 situation has impacted how much exercise I can do weekly and the frequency I get to visit my family and friends, I had been feeling a bit low in mood lately and realizing I was starting to have some negative thoughts and beliefs about myself, that daily where showing up as obstacles.
John helped me to realize all of that and revealed to me some strategies to break the negative patterns of thought and behaviour and armed me with others to empower myself to take action and be happier.
The intention statements strategy have had amazing results for me; it has made me feel super motivated to take action towards my goals and be the best version of myself.
John is an excellent life coach and every session I had has been a powerful life changing gift.

I have been training with John for over a year now and there no words to describe how amazing and confident he makes me feel when we train together he has so much knowledge behind the exercise and always a phone call away.

I met when John when I changed gyms in Jan 201&, I had been working with another personal trainer, so had some idea of how to train and stay motivated. What John did was to start again and teach me how to use dumbbells and kettle bells when the gym was busy, which gave me confidence in my body, look at my food intake and the naughty list of foods including accountability and being accountable to him, due to this introduction to different foods I now follow a plant based lifestyle to go with my daily foods. We have also looked at how to use machines properly to get the best out of them, slowed down the reps to make things harder and to gain muscles. John has helped me deal with two operations, both mentally and physically. This was to remove Melonoma from my body, first was lungs second was major operation resulting in some of my pancreas and spleen removal. Both time’s we have started again from scratch and worked on the parts of my body to rebuild, the result is I am healthier than I have ever been, mentally in a better space and ready to fight if I have to have another operation. John is a lovely guy, who cares about his clients, he is also not just about the Pt part of the training, but mind body and soul, which has enabled him to be able to turn his Pt skills into life coaching. Don’t hesitate to contact John as he would be an asset to you in the gym as a pt or a life coach in your personal life. I would have been lost without the structure and support that he has given to me over the last 2 and a half years. Thanks to you John I am still standing today ! More...
How important is a healthy diet to someone’s health and wellbeing?
This is very important as it makes up 80% of someone's success.
How do you help your clients achieve their fitness goals?
When it comes to your fitness goals, the most important aspect of any strategy is you and your lifestyle. Being part of a program that is focused on getting you results in a way that works for you, and allows you to have the tools to keep going so that you never feel like a failure when it comes to losing weight - this is the last diet you will ever need to go on! There's no counting of calories or macros, just good food and lifestyle coaching that work!
What’s the secret to getting the body of your dreams?
Having a strategy work for you. If you have ever had a Coach / PT / Dietitian / Nutritionist who simply told you to eat less, move more; and made you feel it was your fault that you did not achieve the goal before, they did not consider that the strategy and the implementation was wrong, and that you needed to be at the centre of the strategy.
This is where J Bryant Coaching is different, as we are focused on a holistic approach that works in your lifestyle, to get you long-lasting results.
What do you love most about your job?
I love when a client gets a breakthrough or achieves an ambitious goal that marks a changing point in their life.
What inspired you to start your own business?
Even before I became self employed, I have always had a fascination to help others become happier and healthier, and I loved that I could give back to people and improve their lives.
I was in a job I disliked and took it upon myself to take the decision to leave a job that paid well to pursue a career that I still to this day have a passion to get up early or work late, and make a difference to other people.
I have enjoyed the challenges and learnings that I have had in the past and use it to improve my coaching to enable you to become a healthier and happier individual.
Why should our clients choose you?
My specialties have come from my own life experiences in combination with the learning that those experiences gave me as well as the education that I have received to facilitate positive changes to the people that I coach. I believe that no matter the circumstances you are in you can make drastic changes to your life my taking consistent action.
Can you provide your services online or remotely? If so, please add details.
I can offer online services via Zoom, Microsoft Teams or Skype.
What changes have you made to keep your customers safe from Covid-19?
Most of the coaching would be done online, making it covid safe. If you happen to live near my business location, then any concerns with Covid can be addressed before any in-person interaction.
Nutrition Coaching
The key to your weight loss is mostly done through your nutrition. Without good nutrition the body cannot lose weight. However, the fitness industry has led to you believe that you were the problem.
All you actually needed was a nutrition strategy that works for your lifestyle and actually works without causing any extra stress and anxiety
Online Personal Training
Whether you are looking to lose weight, get toned or simply build muscle, having the right program is essential.
The key to the success is having it in a way that works for your existing lifestyle.
Whether you want to train once a week, 3 times a week or more , there is a plan that can work alongside the nutrition element
Life Coaching
The glue that holds together your nutrition and exercise is the mindset. As part of the program, you get life coaching so that you are able to keep on track with your goals and stay accountable in a way that works for you.
