Reed Elite Training | Exercise Specialist

John was my trainer for over 3 years. Many trainers or books can teach you proper form, but John's positive attitude and encouragement are what make him a great trainer. He encouraged me while I trained for a half and full marathon and adjusted my weight training and cross training sessions accordingly. He helped me train for a Tough Mudder. I would go back to him in a heartbeat if I could, but he has given me the tools and confidence to do it on my own.

Best trainer in Bellevue. I had personal trainers for the past 13 years, but never stayed with the same trainer for more than 6 months until I started training with John Reed. John makes trainer exciting, challenging, and fun. He challenges me and makes sure I get the results that I want. He is also very knowledgeable when it comes to nutrition. He customized a nutrition plan, and along with his workout plan, now I am stronger, leaner, and I live a healthier life style.I have been training with Jon Reed for almost 3 years, and I appreciate everything he has done for me. He is great listener, treats his clients as friends, and truly cares about me achieving my goals.

I've been training with John for 5 months and the results have been astounding. I was nervous to start lifting after I herniated two discs, L4 and L5 in January 2015. In March 2016 I hired John with the intent of recovering after my injury. Amazingly, I'm stronger than ever and able to do lifts I never thought I'd be able to do again, like squats and deadlifts. I'm confident that this was only possible with John's coaching and programming tailored to my specific goals and injury history. I would not have been able to do this without him. Now people complement my form, calling it "perfect" and "textbook."John is an excellent trainer, always encouraging, and was very patient with me and my injury. If you are looking to get into strength training or weight lifting, especially if you have had an injury in the past, John is your guy.

By far the best trainer I have ever met! I have been working with John for a few years now and continue to be impressed with his ability to stay at the forefront of the health and fitness industry. John has truly helped me see my potential and has played a key role in my journey to live a healthier lifestyle.If you are looking for someone who will listen to your goals, create a plan to achieve them and really help you get and stay there, he is the one.He is a great listener, highly educated in his space and very motivated to help others achieve their goals. He is not a cheerleader...he is a coach. Always energetic, happy and encouraging... I would highly recommend him no matter where you are in your journey. I lost over 30lbs in the first 8 months with him and have kept it off for over a year and a half now! He is awesome!!

Training with John has made a huge difference in my life. He worked with me to put together a fitness plan based on where I was and where I wanted to be. Now I feel strong and healthy - I don't even recognize older photos of myself. Throughout the process, John has been there guiding, motivating, informing and protecting me. He's really a good choice for a knowledgeable and engaging professional to help you get into the shape you want to be.

John Reed is motivated to motivate you. He'll pretty much customize your training to fit your needs. Need nutritional advice? He's got a plan for you. Want to lose weight or bulk up? He will help you with your goals. Just want to get stronger or learn correct weight lifting technique? He'll help you with that, too. I've been working out with John for a couple of years and even when I'm tired or not looking forward to working out after work, John's attitude and energy always makes it worthwhile. He's a certified Master Trainer and he's always learning new things to share with his clients. Highly recommend.

I have been training with John for over three years. I am a 50+ year old man with multiple dinged up body parts. John always comes up with new and different exercises/lifts to achieve our workout goals, without aggravating my problem areas (ankle, knee, shoulder). He takes time away from the gym to research the most effective ways to work around my difficulties, and is always coming in with new exercises. Training with John is fun and always ends up being the best part of my day. This is a career for John, not a job, and he treats it and his clients as such. I think every one of his clients considers him a good friend, not just a personal trainer. I consider John my personal trainer, nutritionist, life counselor, and a great friend. You won't find a better trainer or person than John.

John Reed will change your life.I started training with John in 2012 after struggling to find the experience I was looking for with other trainers. John was a young, new trainer at the gym and I wasn't sure what to expect, but was immediately blown away by his energy, professionalism and knowledge.Over the following two-and-a-half years, John's training became a cornerstone of my fitness regimen. John didn't just give me a cookie-cutter workout plan, he personalized every workout to my goals and needs and came in every week with new information, techniques and tips and incorporated them into our sessions. He has a limitless desire to learn and passes that knowledge on to his clients; he's constantly accumulating new information about fitness, nutrition and motivation and using what he learns to improve his clients' lives.When you train with John, you don't just get a tough workout, you get so much more. He'll help you get your nutrition on point. He'll teach you recovery techniques to make sure you're getting the most out of your gym sessions. He'll help you discover a positive outlook that will take over every day of your life. You'll find yourself noticing the positive effects of his training 24 hours a day, seven days a week.If you're serious about your health, your fitness, your nutrition and your life, you owe it to yourself to have John Reed as your coach guiding the way.
