“The best thing I did after my Intermediate Seminar was listen to Lisa and the coaches who suggested I jump right into the Advanced Seminar which was just 3 months away. Their belief in me reshaped the dialogue in my own head. They saw a potential that I had not yet seen in myself.”

“The most unexpected part of my Advanced Seminar was the Strongman lifting. I was unsure I would jump in and try the log bar, but I’m glad I did. Gym Jones has pushed me out of my comfort zone more times than I can count and I always came out better for it.”

“My advice to someone considering a Gym Jones Seminar is to accept the fact you will be pushed to your physical and mental limits. I plan on attending the intermediate seminar and I will prepare myself physically with sufficient sleep, good diet, and proper water intake. Mentally, I will prepare myself with a learning attitude, understanding every hard workout makes me a better person, and having fun.”

“I have never done anything like this before so preparing for something like the level 1 seminar was very new to me. I’m grateful that my boss, Kurtis Frasier, had a program available to get me ready for the weekend.”

“As with most things, I definitely could have prepared more but I felt confident in my abilities showing up for day 1; however, that quickly changed after finishing tail pipe. That workout challenged me on so many levels. It had me question my whole training leading up to the seminar.”

“I generally have a decent baseline fitness year-round, however, I should have done some additional preparation to sustain the multiple efforts that are conducted during the seminar. This would have allowed me to have a better recovery, in turn, would have made it easier to stay focused on the vast amount of information that was taught.”

“I loved my entire Gym Jones experience, and came back resolved to make many changes in my life. I follow the coaches I met on Instagram and look forward to their posts. I learned a lot about programming  have built my own home gym, and I host driveway workouts for my friends. I learned a lot about sleep the importance of recovery. I came back resolved to use my anxiety medication only when necessary and create healthy habits that don’t rely on it. I surrounded myself with people who make me a better version of myself. If I could take this class every year I would- because it had such an impact on my life. Even knowing the information, the actual experience in the gym with others is what absolutely set this apart from any other seminar or online education.”

“Do it. I had been waiting a while to [go to a seminar]. Always an excuse, work, family, covid, finances. The first step in mental toughness is setting a goal and going after it.”

“It’s a terrible thing in life to wait until you’re ready. There is almost no such thing as ready… generally speaking now is as good as a time as any” – HL

“The big difference with Gym Jones is the focus on the Mind is Primary. Many seminars teach physical technique and skill but not about the how resilient the mind can be in adverse situations. There is a “space” that each of us creates, it is that zone outside of where we are comfortable… the Gym Jones seminar will get you being comfortable with being uncomfortable.”
