I was introduced to Jesse by a mutual friend.  I had always been extremely fit, but the last few years life had been hectic and caught up with me.  I was really down on myself and actually afraid to go back to the gym.  Afraid I was too far gone, I had gained a lot of weight!  When I met Jesse he was very warm, kind and most of all knowledgeable.  He helped me regain my love of training and my confidence.  He truly cares about his client's goals and will work very hard with you to help you achieve them.                          ~ Jeani Fairbrother, Federal Way WA

Jesse gets results.  After working out with 4 different trainers from a national chain gym I finally turned to Jesse and I got results.  He is positive, encouraging and motivational.  He helped bring out the best in me and I couldn't be happier.    ~ Dione Hauger, Puyallup WA

I've known and trained with Jesse for about 4 years.  He's taken me from a rookie to a championship contender in the world of bodybuilding.  He is a good friend, as well as a training coach and I thank him for all his dedication and persistence in training me.  I look forward to training with him in 2016 for competition and to walk away with the gold.  ~ Bennie Simon, Tacoma WA

​I met Jesse through a coworker and he was EXACTLY what I had been looking for. When we met to go over my fitness goals he was very professional and supportive, he inspired me confidence that I can attain what I was looking for and now 5 months in to training with him I have not been disappointed. Jesse really personalizes the plan and takes into consideration who you are as a person and in my case limitations I have due to injuries and he whips out another workout that is more suitable which makes me feel like he cares and wants to see me succeed! He also challenges me and pushes my own limits when I don’t believe in myself and because of this I’ve been able to achieve goals that I thought I couldn’t. He is also flexible with my schedule and always has a good attitude and is funny & personable, he’s like a friend to me now. I look forward to our workouts every week, and with his help now I know HOW to work out, I am very excited to continue on this journey with Jesse to get to where I want to be. His personal gym is also very hygienic, he makes sure the gyms stays clean & safe for us all. Jesse is highly recommended by me if you are looking for a personal trainer who will support you and help you attain your fitness goals!

“There is something for everyone”
As a child I was active; Soccer, Track and an avid swimmer. Then came life…… 6 years of College, working 16 hours a day and often 7 days a week, marriage, family…….. My love for fitness never left, but my ability to fit it in did. At the age of 40 I was diagnosed with breast cancer and underwent treatment, I faced it again at 48 and underwent extensive surgery and chemotherapy. The things that were important in life changed drastically. I woke up one day and didn’t like what I had turned into. I was blessed to be introduced by a friend to a professional body builder. I thought I had no place training with some one of this caliber. I was wrong. I met Jesse Parks and he said “there is something for everyone”. He trained professionals and was willing to train me. He is professional, kind, tolerant, encouraging, knows your limits, drives you just one more rep when you don’t  think you can do it anymore, and I have never felt out of place or uncomfortable. He has become a friend and a mentor. At 55 I feel strong. It has not only helped me physically but has helped me a great deal psychologically. I recommend Jesse for every level of fitness!!!!  I am excited to see what the future brings.
Thank you Jesse!  ~ Judy Keyt, Tacoma WA
