Jae’s Personal Training / Boxing Training

Fantastic experience: I started personal training with Jae seven months ago and have loved it! Boxing is such a lovely way to relive stress and confidence! I started to get in shape and stayed for all these extra benefits I found. Jae is great - very good instructor, has helped me tremendously with form and is always super on point! I’m really glad I started with personal training instead of a group class because there is so much more focus on me learning form and learn the right habits!

Fantastic experience: Jae is great! He takes the time to have a first consultation meeting to go over nutrition and what my fitness goal were. This helped to curb some of the bad eating habits I had. Through our sessions, we've done boxing and key areas.where I wanted to mainly focus on. I've gotten healthier and stronger that even my family notices. Some pants that I wasn't able to fit in before now fit, which is amazing. He's such a good motivator and also strives to get the best out of his clients. Hightly recommend!

Fantastic experience: Jae is knowledgeable in boxing and puts effort into teaching it properly. He isn’t the drill sergeant type - he will encourage you to go the extra mile if he thinks you can. He will adjust to what you prefer to do on a given day and to your preferred exercise (such as weights, HIIT, endurance). Possibly my favorite thing about Jae is his ability to be flexible with time. He won’t penalize for missing a session, and can often find different times on a whim to adjust. He truly cares about helping people be well!

Fantastic experience: The strength & conditioning and boxing sessions with Jae have been instrumental in helping me to achieve my fitness goals. Jae’s training sessions are tailored to individual needs and progress. Sessions are challenging and fun as Jae provides excellent instruction and motivation. Highly recommend.

Fantastic experience: I love my sessions with Jae. It's only 30 minute sessions that fly by and Jae keeps it interesting & fun. If you follow his plan you'll definitely achieve your goals. God bless- Elizabeth

Fantastic experience: By far, I’ve never met a more equipped, capable, diligent, and proficient trainer in all my years of living. My son Christian has been training for 4 straight months with Jae and the level of growth and improvement I’ve seen from him is out of this world! If you are oookibg for a trainer that is focused on you and committed to your growth and the vision you see for yourself give Jae a try!!

Fantastic experience: Jae's an excellent trainer! He has a very unique approach and caters his training style to fit your specific needs. He takes a few sessions to get to know you, but once he has a grasp on your personality and motivation, he knows exactly which buttons to push to help you get to where you want to go. He also takes out time to educate you on proper nutrition and offers plenty of helpful tips that will improve your diet and accelerate your progress. He not only gets you physically ready, but also mentally ready for the journey. Also very flexible with scheduling, has accommodated my work schedule on multiple occasions, which is very appreciated. Lost 30 pounds in three months, give or take, still have a ways to go, but looking forward to what comes next!

Fantastic experience: Jae is a great motivator, working out with him has challenged me and propelled me to continue my health goals. He’s knowledgeable about health and fitness; and is extremely dedicated to motivating you to improve all habits related to your health. I’ve been working with Jae during the pandemic and his attention to a clean, covid safe environment is fantastic. If you want to be challenged and supported through your fitness or weight loss journey I highly recommend you book sessions with Jae.

Fantastic experience: After learning self-defense with Jae, I have come out feeling safe and so much more confident in my abilities to defend myself. I was challenged in a good way that left me feeling better every time I walked out the door.

Fantastic experience: Boxing provided my son an outlet to express himself, got him in shape and back on track. I highly recommend!!!

Fantastic experience: 55lbs down!!!!! This training program has truly been a blessing. I’ve always struggled with weight loss and have had many personal trainers throughout the years.

Its been six months- I look good and I feel even better!!

He has taught me new eating habits and a new found way of looking at food. With Jae's help, I have built my self confidence and I'm ready to take on things I would not have before. Thank you Jae!!

Fantastic experience: No nonsense training, but good fun. Results oriented! Sessions fly by.

Fantastic experience: Jae is an absolutely awesome guy, very friendly and knows everything there is to know about boxing, physical training, and dieting. I have learned some tips and tricks about my diet, about my overall lifestyle and have learned a ton about boxing. I know this knowledge will last me a lifetime.

Fantastic experience: I have been training with Jae since September of 2019. A lot of work is packed into 30 minutes. Training with Jae not only provides you with the tools you need to work out and for your workouts to be effective, but he also provides knowledge about your body and how everything works together. Jae provides you with information that you can use everyday to continue to improve your health and those around you. I highly recommend training with Jae for anyone that is looking to break out of their normal routine and achieve long lasting results.

Fantastic experience: Very personable and professional. Jae pushes me to the limit physically and mentally. Choosing Jae as a trainer has been one of my best decisions. I would highly recommend Jae to everyone looking to improve themselves inside and out. He creates the perfect workout for what you are looking to accomplish. Thank you Jae!

Fantastic experience: I started working out with Jae in 2019 while pregnant. I was looking for an effective workout that was safe and would challenge me throughout my pregnancy. He delivered! His nutritional guidance and workouts kept me feeling great during my pregnancy. I've now had my baby and I'm excited to be back in the gym working with Jae.

Fantastic experience: Jae’s ability to transform a person is phenomenal and not just the physical. My teen age daughter is changing right before my eyes. She’s doing more in one week than I’ve been able to get her to do in the past few years!! She’s feeling real good about herself and her life... what more can a mom asks for?! A millionThank you’s Jae!!!

Fantastic experience: Jae is one the best trainers I’ve ever worked with. He has a through understanding of how the mind and brain work together and uses that to physically push you through your point of failure He has educated me and simplified the overly complicated world of nutrition out there in the world and on the internet. Because of Jae I now wake up regularly at 4:00 a.m in the morning to start my day “everyday” (even though we only train twice a week.) and have conquered one of my lifelong challenges of finding out Why I’ve always struggled to be an early person. With Jae I will always be a life long student

Fantastic experience: I've been training with jae since October 2019. He's extremely versatile and tailors each workout to your specific goals. If you want to lose weight, get stronger, learn to box (or get better at it), you want to reach out to Jae.

Fantastic experience: I really enjoyed my experience with Jae. He was very knowledgeable about his craft and very easy going about it. Jae always pushed me to work my hardest in the safest way. I would highly recommend him to my peers.

Fantastic experience: I have been trained with J for three months. He is professional and knowledge about training and building muscles. I also like his consultation of getting healthier diet. Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: Working with Jae helped boost my confidence and believe in myself. Training your body doesn't take just dedication, you have to have time (at least 30mins a day) to work on yourself and discipline. The word Discipline is easy to say, but in our day to day activity there’s so many temptation that can ruin our motivation. He helped me to plan my diet, how I can start my morning and end my day with healthy nutrition. He suggested taking fruits and nuts daily and avoid dairy, it might sound simple. But again, once I started implementing and following his advice, I saw big results from my energy level and gradually into body result. We train 30 minutes a day depending on your work schedule, you’ll have one an one evaluation with him, whats your body goals and how to achieve it. I love that he incorporate boxing in between our session that helped me sharpen my mind and stay aware with my surrounding. We split our training focusing in different areas of our muscle, he showed me proper way to do certain exercises to activate your muscle and how to avoid injury. He always remind me “Mind and Body Connection”, and it works!!! In 3 months, I started to feel the results in my body, muscles that I’ve never thought I’ll be able to train it. I saw changes in my muscle tonality and overall my perspective in healthy eating. Big Thanks Jae!!!! I highly recommend training with him, he’s very informative and experienced trainer, he won’t fail you!

Fantastic experience: J Edwards has played a big part in my weight loss journey. After struggling with weight loss for years, I am finally on the right path. The training is intense and the holistic nutrition approach is invaluable.

Fantastic experience: I highly recommend J Edwards. I’ve lost 15 lbs in 3 months. He is professional, motivating and makes training an enjoyable experience.

Fantastic experience: Are you willing to give 110% to get healthy and fit? If so....James is the personal trainer who will push you to your potential. My family has known James for over 7 years now and he has been an outstanding motivator and trainer for all of us. James Edwards has the capability to change your mindset about food, training and approach it with only a positive attitude. You will not find any better personal trainer here in Wake County.....James is a true gentleman and we are very grateful for his services......oh and his boxing training is second to none. Get ready to work your tail off!

Fantastic experience: J has done a fabulous job with our 12 year old son Jacob. Jacob had an interest in boxing, and though my husband didn’t support this training at first, he now agrees that this has been such a great thing for our son. Jacob has had the following results in just a couple of months: Much improved foot work, incredible self confidence gains , 10 pound weight loss, and stamina and attitude improvement. We have been thrilled with this investment in our son and highly recommend J!

Fantastic experience: More than just a personal trainer! Has helped me really start living a healthy life style. Mind,body and soul!

Fantastic experience: J has pushed me to lift heavier weights, higher reps, and more frequently than I've ever been motivated to do on my own and helped make sure I have proper form to optimize results. I have seen fantastic results including visible toning, weight loss, and improved strength. He is flexible with my schedule and has been great at meeting me where I am and challenging me to do my best!

Fantastic experience: Jay is a great coach and a great guy, he knows what he does and will not let you give up. He will always encourages you to achieve your goals. Don’t waste your time and money going with those personal trainers with the big belly ( sad but true ).

Fantastic experience: J is knowledgeable and motivating. Boxing is a great way to burn some calories and get in shape.

Fantastic experience: Knowledgeable and motivating trainer

Fantastic experience: Excellent all around!!

Fantastic experience: J is the best! I have used personal trainers before but have never experienced the kind of results before that I have with Jay. He mixes up the workouts so you never get bored, and individualized your workouts to your needs- physically and mentally. Can not recommend J more highly

Fantastic experience: I started working with James to regain the strength that I had lost due to a chronic pain issue I have been dealing with for the last 3 years. His workouts get me in and out of the gym in half the time, without sacrificing results. In the 12 weeks I have been working with him, my strength has been regained and inches have been lost. James knows his stuff, he works with you and your goals, he was flexible and able to adapt his plan to my sometimes challenging limitations. I am very glad I made the investment to work with James and look forward to continuing to make progress towards my goals.

Fantastic experience: I would recommend training with J to anyone. I was never big on working out because I felt like I didn't know what I was doing. I called J and he has changed all of that for me! I work with him about 4 times a week. He is great at explaining the movements and making sure my form is correct. The exercises never gets old and I am constantly challenging myself applying what he teaches me. Some of the exercises I do while working with him I would have never thought j could do. I feel ten times more comfortable going to the gym on my own now. He motivates and pushes me when I would have given up while working out by myself.

Fantastic experience: I started with J last month (April, 2017). He's awesome! I appreciate his holistic training approach; teaching and following up on eating habits/changes in addition to exercise. The 30-minute sessions are intense and effective; always switching up the exercises. I'm already seeing change in my body, improved sleep and energy level! J's flexible with my work schedule, which makes evening sessions perfect. I started boxing today and am excited to incorporate boxing into my training. I highly recommend J!

Fantastic experience: I have been a gym rat for the past 10 years and thought that I was in good shape, until I started taking boxing training with James. Definitely worth every minute as I feel as though I have grown when it comes to my fitness journey. I would recommend training with James Edwards to anyone, as I am confident they will not be disappointed.

Fantastic experience: Best experience with a personal trainer I've ever had. He was very attentive and helpful. I saw results and was just completely pleased with the overall experience. I will be calling him again.

Fantastic experience: Each workout I've had help to improve my breathing, muscle tone and my eating habits. So if you want to feel refreshed mentally and physically each day then train with Coach J.

Fantastic experience: J is a very knowledgeable trainer and he does not mind sharing the information with others. He's easygoing and flexible.

Fantastic experience: This is the first time I've been able to stick with an exercise program for longer than a week. That's because J always keeps it interesting. Really important if, like me, you don't find the standard gym membership very motivating. J's boxing workout has me feeling healthier and thinking clearer in a little under a month. The fact that his approach is patient but progressive, is really helpful.

Fantastic experience: I have really enjoyed training with J. The mix of boxing, weight training, and core work keep things interesting, enjoyable, and motivating. I am stronger, sleep better, and have less stress after working out with him.

Fantastic experience: I have known Coach J for over 3 years now. He is dedicated, focused, knowledgeable, and flexible. He trains me twice a week in boxing fitness and I have enjoyed the results.

Fantastic experience: Coach J is a local hero to kids and adults in the area. He does what he preaches, which is hard work and smart thinking.

Fantastic experience: Professional boxing training is one of the fastest ways to maintain weight control, lose unwanted body fat, relieve stress and add more fun to your workout. You won't find boxers training on a machine or doing a jazzercise class, they're doing workouts that not only make them better athletically but also produce rapid fat loss results. I have worked out with Coach J for a number of years now and I have found no other workout that gives me the combination of cardio, strength conditioning, stress relief, and weight loss/ control that training like a boxer does. Coach J likes to say that all you need to complete a workout you carry with you everyday. Learning to train like a boxer is a fantastic way to spice up your workouts and get back to basics. If you're up to pushing yourself a little, and did I say relieving some stress then Coach J will show you how. Not only is he a great trainer, he's an all-around great guy too.

Fantastic experience: Trained with J many times over years- he's an extremely hard worker and dedicates his work to his students. Train with J if you want to reach new heights and get the best out of your workout. Progress picture from working with J attached. Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: James is the best trainer you can get. He pushes me to the limit while focusing on the best way to get results with my demanding schedule.

Fantastic experience: If you want an extreme fat burning and muscle building workout...you need to see Coach J!

Fantastic experience: Jay is very attentive and really cares about you throughout the whole process. I've never really been into the gym scene, but after working out with Jay and him showing me how to properly work out to get the best results, I don't know what I'd do without the gym! Not only will he show you how to work out properly, he'll also show you how to eat right so that you can be the best you. Highly recommend him!

Fantastic experience: I have worked with many different trainers before but J is truly the best. His training is very effective. Highly recommended!
