Jordan Johnson

Certifications:

• American Council on Exercise (ACE)
• Senior Specialist

History:

Jordan has always used physical activity and sports as an outlet from everyday life stressors, to improve and heal sport injuries, and to have fun. Jordan is known to set goals, spend numerous hours and get hyper-focused on his desired results, reaching his objectives through extreme passion and dedication. He is always trying to reach the next level in whatever athletic aim he sets out to achieve.

For Jordan playing sports goes hand-in-hand with family. From playing a friendly family game of shinny hockey in minus 35 on boxing day, to full contact basketball – he is always ready and willing to participate and compete.

Jordan will always demonstrate his passion through his knowledge, his walk the talk attitude, and his unconditional love and dedication towards his clients.

Trainee Type:

Jordan has been training people from all walks of life and ethnic backgrounds for over a decade, whose goals and skill levels all vary vastly; from wanting to jump higher and dunk, to moving better in order to play with their grandchildren. Jordan will eagerly go the extra mile to build a specialized training program for each one of his clients in order to get them to their desired goal(s). Additionally, Jordan believes in approaching fitness with a “have fun first” attitude. He wants his clients to not only come to him to reach health and fitness goals, but to have fun, and build friendships.

Training Philosophy:

Taking an inside-out, top top-to-bottom approach.

Being a trainer/ coach to Jordan, is a privileged responsibility. He has been blessed with the opportunity to move and inspire people’s lives through health and fitness. This is not a responsibility he takes lightly. He strives to help his clients achieve longevity, connecting each piece of the fitness puzzle together in order to achieve a larger outcome. He believes all training sessions should involve laughter and overall fun. And who knows, you might laugh so much with him, you may even be able to skip doing an ab workout.

Favourite Exercise:

Any plyometrics aka jumping exercise. You need a little bit of everything to have elite jumping skills. Body coordination, balance, stability, strength, speed, power and explosiveness. Fighting against gravity is so enjoyable.

Testimonial:

“I started training with Jordan 3 months ago and couldn’t be happier. I have a couple coworkers train at SVPT and they highly recommended the place. As an adult playing rec sports as my only source of fitness I knew I could stand to broaden my horizons and “Level Up”. I tease Jordan that his superhero catch phrase is “Are you ready to level up?” but it’s true; there is nothing he enjoys more than helping you reach your goals and seeing your growth. Your goal doesn’t matter, big or small, Jordan is just as thrilled to be by your side. I want to stay mobile and fit for my kids while steering clear of injuries so I can continue to enjoy sports. We’ve made it a goal to work on my jumping so I can continue to show up on the court and having a fun goal makes our training meaningful and the progress tangible.

Something I learned training with Jordan is: It’s okay to fail. Something I hadn’t had much exposure to in my life. He showed me it’s okay to struggle and it’s okay to fail, it means what we are doing is worthwhile.

It’s a pleasure seeing Jordan every week. He tailors your workouts to your specific goals, needs, comforts, and ability. He has a positive attitude I wish I could have with me everywhere. Now get out there and “Level Up” !!”
