Meet Steve
Steve is a 51-year-old hairdresser and salon owner who came to JMPT feeling frustrated with how he looked and increasingly uncomfortable in his own body.
The Challenge
Before working with us, Steve had hit a turning point.
When he turned 50, he put on a shirt and noticed the buttons gaping open — a clear sign it was time for change.
He was also dealing with persistent knee pain every morning. Despite having had a couple of personal trainers before, nothing had truly stuck, and the creeping discomfort was getting in the way of everyday life.
Why He Nearly Didn't Start
Like many of our clients, Steve was a bit apprehensive.
He wasn’t sure how effective another fitness programme would be, even though he had some idea of what to expect from previous PT experiences.
The Turning Point
Once Steve started with JMPT, it all just clicked.
He quickly realised how tailored and personable the sessions were — he actually enjoyed them. With a bit of structure and support, he began to see changes that made a real difference in both his body and his lifestyle.
The Results
In less than two years, Steve achieved:
✅ Total elimination of daily knee pain
✅ Confidence in his appearance — shirts now fit without gaping
✅ A complete lifestyle upgrade, from tracking meals to lifting weights at home
Here’s what he had to say:
“Now, I’ve strengthened my legs, I don’t get any knee problems at all. I enjoy sessions with Jake — they’re personable, we have a good laugh, and I always come away feeling great. It works for me.”
