As a newbie to strength training and attempting to putz around the weight room on my own, I decided some personal training was in order. Jon Kaker was very considerate of my personal fitness goals, as well as my current abilities and physical limitations, in designing and tailoring my workout to my individual needs. He was extremely patient in teaching me correct form and dedicated to preventing and avoiding injury. He is very knowledgeable and a great teacher and after a handful of training sessions, each one is still new, challenging, and effective. But dont get me wrong, all those kind and gentle qualities aside, there was a significant amount of ass kicking...and I needed it. I admit it...I may have whined and complained with a few I cants thrown in there but he knew my limits better than I did. So after thinking I couldnt do any more reps or there was no way I had a chance at a heavier weight, apparently I had a few more reps in me, with another weight plate, and then another, and then one more. After the sessions, I walked out (or more like crawled out...park close to the exit...youll thank me later) feeling strong, energized, confident, and in about 2 hours...really sore, in a good way. #TooBuff

As a former division 1 athlete, I can honestly say that going through Jons Vertimax program is the closest thing Ive felt to being back in my college program. You will be sore the next day. You will feel muscles you didnt know you had. But you will also come out the other side more explosive and a better overall athlete. The combination of the resistance training and Jons knowledge make for a great workout. If you want to regain the explosive step you may have lost, or just to improve your quickness and speed, this is a great way to get there!

Met Kaker about a year+ ago playing flag football at the beach, after a few games found out he was a personal trainer so had a good discussion about working out, nutrition etc..

I have background in training various sports, martial arts and have been working out intensely for the past 10+ years, and had some very aggressive goals for my self. I ended up consulting with Kaker about these goals, he had some great incite, seemed like he knew what he was talking about and gave me some great pointers. After a while I ended up getting Kaker on board as a personal trainer for 3 months.

He designed a nutritional plan, and a workout strategy, which at first seemed contradictory to what Ive been doing, but I went with it anyway and got awesome results. We met a few times a week, went through the various routines, and end up having more fun throughout the workout then I normally would.

Over all I ended up loosing 23 pounds of fat, got way more cut and developed awesome Ab and Biceps definition. The workouts didnt seem like a drag anymore, much more fun.

This guy is very easy to get along with, and knows a tone about getting fit Fast!

In my opinion if you want to lose fat, get cut or train for a sport like a pro, give him a call and youll be well on your way.

Ive worked with Jon Kaker (JK) for a while now and I am so thankful I met him...

I am a former Varsity star athlete that got caught up in the business world and lost touch with my personal fitness over the years.

I leveled with JK about my situation and he immediately got on board to work with me at my level, he made me feel welcomed, and helped me set realistic goals.

JK has been a positive motivator from the start and he has already been more involved in my health, fitness & improvement plan than I expected.

If you want to talk about going above and beyond, he does it. In my experience, he sets a new bar for personal trainers.

It is clear from day one that this is more than just a hobby or a job for him, he really cares, he knows his stuff, and most importantly: he gets results.

I cant recommend Jon Kaker highly enough.

I did the Vertimax class with Jon Kaker and it was intense but I enjoyed it. I go to the gym regularly and I realized that my gym regimen is nothing during this workout session. I use to play Volleyball and doing some of the stuff Jon had us doing use to be so easy, but Im out of shape and this class will whip me right back into shape.

We did a series of workouts in rotation, lots of glutes and legs and abs. Jon was very helpful and eager to make sure I did the workouts with the correct form so I do not hurt myself. He encouraged me to practice in the mirror while there so I can see exactly what I was doing and then see exactly what I should be doing. Even with others who were more experienced in the class and I was moving slow, Jon still encouraged me to keep going and didnt make me feel like I shouldnt be there with experienced people. Everything worked out perfectly and I really enjoyed the class and Im awaiting the really sore moments and returning to more classes to see if I can get back in shape.

Jon is very knowledgeable about the muscles that you are working on and willing to answer questions, demonstrate proper technique and is HIGHLY recommended!!!
