Triomph Fitness, Health, and Wellness
"Dream-Believe-Achieve" is Jack's motto. As co-owner of Triomph Fitness, Health, and Wellness, Jack believes fitness, health, and wellness, should be a lifestyle, not a quick fix. AFAA certified and adept in using the body as it's own "workout machine", he rarely trains clients with "traditional" equipment, and chooses instead to have them perform a variety of exercises such as push ups, squats, planks, pull-ups, lunges, etc... Coming from a strict military upbringing (and having worked in the fashion industry), Jack has managed to bring aspects of both worlds into his client's routines. "You'll train like you're preparing for war, and in the end you'll look better, feel stronger, and walk taller than you ever have before!" Read the profile >>
