I started training with Renea at the end of June 2017 under her 90 Day Transformation program. When I came in, I had little to no experience with free weights, could barely do one pushup with bad form, and struggled to run even half a mile. I had been to the gym on and off throughout the years, but mainly used machines. After working with Renea for those 90 Days, I can confidently say that I am in much better shape than I was when I began. I felt noticeably stronger after the first few weeks, and I could feel my endurance improving not long after. As of today, I can complete around 10 pushups with good form, run a full mile, and my posture has improved significantly. That is not to say that those pushups or mile are easy, but progress is made in consistency, and Renea has been a huge help in getting to where I am today.The actual space is fairly small, with just three rooms. One has a weight rack, another has cardio equipment (a treadmill, an elliptical, and a stationary bike), and the larger space where the majority of the training will take place has dumbbells and battle ropes. It never felt crowded while I was training, as Renea doesn’t schedule more than three people at the same time (and most of the time it will be you and maybe one other person). I will say that there is not a lot of equipment, though I heard Renea mention adding more. However, since there weren’t a lot of other people at one time, I never had to wait to use any of the equipment while I was training, and Renea was very creative with how she used the equipment for the exercises.I highly recommend Island Jam Fitness, especially for those who are inexperienced with exercise like I was. Renea was able to take the unfamiliar and intimidating world of fitness, and make it much more approachable. I was able to lose 10 lbs of net weight, lost inches an average of 2 inches all around my body (I’m in need of new clothes now), and feel so much better than I did before. For those of you who are looking to become active (either again or for the first time), but are feeling overwhelmed with the amount of information out there or don’t know where to start, do yourselves a favor and check out Island Jam Fitness. I can promise you that you won’t be disappointed. More...

I started training at Island Jam Fitness about 15 months ago. Through the plan that was generated for me specifically, I can honestly say that I am in the best shape I have been in for at least the last 25 years. My plan was not just pumping weights or running on a tread mill. It also includes nutritional education which I have now embraced. If you are looking for a specifically designed program in a comfortable environment, you should give Island Jam Fitness a try. Johnny 2.0 More...

She evaluates your current level of fitness and then helps you reach heights you never thought possible. I am proud to call her my trainer and recommend everyone else to do the same.

How do you help your clients achieve their fitness goals?
Clients often feel that not eating or eating very little will help them lose weight subsequently, the opposite of that is eating too much. We will help you with developing and forming habits, understanding how to eat, on eating frequent meals, the benefits of food and its importance in the weight-loss process.
By helping you to understand the process involved with exercise and nutrition, you become more aware and often tend to make more of an effort to change.
What’s the secret to getting the body of your dreams?
The secret to building the body of your dreams is to understand that this is a process, there will be ups and downs, and that is fine, the key is to embrace and continue to work toward lifestyle change, not just a temporary one. Ultimately consistency, commitment, dedication is key.
