Before coming to Jason I was seeing a Chiropractor regularly for back pain. I have not seen or thought about a Chiropractor since training with Jason these past three years. My posture has dramatically improved and I am sometimes told by friends that I look taller.

I sometimes show up for an appointment not feeling well but when I do; 30 minutes into the workout I feel 10 times better!

I am a lot stronger now and am not afraid to pick up heavy objects. In essence my confidence level has improved commensurate with becoming stronger and more coordinated!

Because Jason is so goal oriented and serious there has never been a session where progress was not achieved thus, "the sky is the limit with Jason".

One of the things I like about working out with Jason is he explains the benefit of each of the assigned exercises along with providing education of the muscular and neural structure. When he gives descriptions of a new exercise, I can easily picture what to do because his descriptions always relate to things one might do every day (just ask him about lat pull downs!). And with kettlebells incorporated into my routine, I've seen a marked increase in overall functional strength plus have truly enjoyed the stretching that is a natural by-product of the exercises. It's amazing how many muscles kick in with each exercise versus regular weights or pulleys which seem to target one specific muscle or group of muscles.

Training at the Iron Lion Studio is a dynamic workout experience. Jason Therrien is a very knowledgeable and professional trainer who enjoys working with clientele at all fitness levels. Already having years of experience in traditional weight lifting, his kettlebell training gave me the athletic, strength building workouts I was looking for. Jason also helped me enhance workouts for my collegiate lacrosse team, tips which I will use throughout my coaching career. I highly recommend Iron Lion to any and all athletes seeking to better their athletic performance, as well as individuals looking to simply get into better shape.

It is quite a task to try to condensate in a few sentences all the good Jason has done to me. So let the results speak for themselves:

• Backache: down from paralyzing backaches every 6 months for 30 years, to none for the last two years.
• Weight: down from 203 lb three years ago to 160 lb for the last two years.
• Endurance: Pikes Peak Barr trail, down from 9:30 hr in 2005 to 5:40 hr in 2008.

I have known Jason now for several years, and I can attest that he is extremely competent, serious, attempt and caring in his work.

Jason possesses a depth of scientific knowledge about the human body and nutrition that he is able to translate and apply to real life conditions and that he can clearly convey you.

Normally someone (like me) which is not in top physical shape may be intimidated by a person like Jason, by his perfect health, confidence, muscles and brains, but instead Jason comes through with such humor, warmness, patience and sympathy that he will make you feel completely at ease about your own physical condition.

During the performance of your exercise, he might converse and laugh with you but his eyes won't leave you for a second, ready to correct your movements so that you will keep and continue keeping the proper form and never risk an injury.

I can't but recommend Jason to anybody who wants to become a stronger and healthier person.

I have been working out for and considered myself fairly healthy, but wanted some professional input on my routine. Jason quickly identified several problems in my form that I had been aware of, but unsure of how to correct. After 3 weeks I already feel better about my workout and general state of health than I have in years. I feel I have learned ways to better preserve my health and have a clearer picture of what to focus on.
