Hello! I’m James Schyns, a dedicated Fitness Manager and Personal Trainer with 18 years of experience in the fitness industry, based in New Zealand. I specialize in a variety of training styles and techniques, particularly helping clients with injuries achieve their fitness goals. With a Diploma in Exercise Science and certifications in Post Rehab Fitness, my extensive experience covers personal training, group instruction, and post-rehab fitness.
I excel at creating personalized fitness programs focusing on improving strength and conditioning, weight loss, and overall wellness after injury recovery. My training style integrates exercise physiology, functional fitness, and nutrition management to ensure holistic and sustainable progress. Whether you're an athlete aiming to enhance performance or someone recovering from an injury looking to boost your general fitness, I am here to guide you every step of the way.
Fitness is my passion because it transforms lives. I am driven by the joy of seeing clients overcome challenges, improve their health, and gain confidence. My mission is to help you unlock your full potential by providing tailored guidance and unwavering support. I believe in a collaborative approach, working together to achieve your unique fitness goals and ensuring you feel empowered and motivated throughout your journey.
With my in-depth knowledge of exercise science and post-rehab fitness, along with extensive experience, I will develop a customized fitness plan that aligns with your specific needs and aspirations. We’ll start with a comprehensive fitness evaluation to understand your current level and goals. From there, I’ll design a program that includes strength training, cardiovascular exercises, flexibility routines, and nutrition advice. My commitment is to ensure you see tangible results while enjoying the process. Together, we will build a stronger, healthier you.
When I'm not training clients, you might find me exploring the great outdoors or engaging in a friendly game of rugby. I’m also a bit of a tech enthusiast, currently pursuing a diploma in IT Technical Support to blend my love for technology with fitness. Ready to start your fitness journey with me? Let's connect and make your goals a reality. Your success is my priority!
