Absolutraining

If you want to change your lifestyle to a fit and healthy one Jon is your guy! He is an expert in the field of fitness and nutrition. I was fortunate to take his bootcamp classes where full body training was focused. Jon also spends time at the end of the class answering nutrition questions that we have. I have seen great results and will be coming back! Thanks!

Jon is the best when it comes to training, nutrition, and knowledge of fitness. We have known each other for a few years now and he has been coaching, and training me for the past two. I have always been fit. I played soccer at a competitive level and wasn’t one of those guys that needed to lose a lot of weight. But I wanted to be more fit and challenge myself.
Jon’s programs do exactly that. They are challenging but they also deliver results. He also takes time to talk about personal goals, nutrition, and each time we’re ready to switch the programs he adds little tweaks to keep improving but also to keep learning about myself. He is terrific at what he does and he’s constantly looking at new ways to improve what we do.
If you’re thinking to hire just a «trainer» that forgets about you go to 24hr fitness… if you want results, have fun, and working with someone who cares about your health and fitness, then Jon is your guy.

An interview with Jon Celis…
What made you decide to begin working with kettles?
Back in 2004, while I was bodybuilding on my own – I’d already placed 1^st and 2^nd in two competitions – I had watched as a trainer was using kettlebells. Although I hadn’t fully plateaued using methods more traditional, I had become somewhat bored, and what I’d seen this particular trainer doing had really made me curious. So I gave them a try. And once I did, I was hooked! Kettles were certainly more fun and more interesting; but it wasn’t just that: in terms of movement, they were more dynamic, more challenging. An all-​in-​one workout, not only for strength training, but for cardio and flexibility as well.

Was using kettlebells with your clients an easy transition from the tradition forms of strength training and conditioning?
As a trainer, I eventually – and later, exclusively – began using kettles with my clients, both for individual trainings and for classes. In 2009, I became RKC certified, the most prestigious of kettlebell certifications. I’d begun to really experiment with new kettlebell movements, learning different techniques and exercises and making necessary modifications, so that my clients’ individual needs could also be satisfied with such workouts. There is just so much you can do with them: from goblet squats and swings, to snatches, cleans, and presses. There’s just so much variety!

What made you decide to begin weight training?
For my birthday one year – I was a freshman at the time – I had asked for a gym membership. So I began training on my own. I had no trainer. I just copied what I’d read in magazines and from observing others working out. I became more determined, pushed myself.
In fact, it was a high school competition that had originally inspired me. It was called «Mr. Masculine.» Anyway, there were mostly senior athletes and jocks who competed, up on the stage, flexing. Even though I was only a freshman, I entered. I ended up being the only freshman on stage, the only one, surrounded by upper classmen. And it took awhile, you know. I had a lot of catching up to do, but by my junior year, I won! My gym membership began paying off.
But, like I had said before, once I met my goals, I became bored, less and less determined. I soon separated myself from bodybuilding. It wasn’t until my early college years that I began again, and I have continued ever since.
****** ****** ****** ******
So what’s next?
I’m continuing to learn and expand my kettle bell training, attending more workshops and adding additional certs: RKC Level 2, Strong First Level 1 – 2. During which, I am also finishing my Masters in Holistic Nutrition as Absolutraining plans to evolve into a complete Health and Fitness Program. Kettlebell training will focus on physical performance, strength, power, speed, cardiovascular endurance; and Nutrition will promote health longevity and cognitive performance.
The goal is to evolve into a complete system. Better performance achieved by combining functional movement with a nutrient-​rich diet, in order to achieve the ultimate in my clients’ physical and mental health.

I have worked with Jon for almost a year. I came to him because I had an injury and needed help with my nutrition. After multiple trainers at 24 hour fitness I realized that the barrier was my food choices, not how hard I worked at the gym. What I love about training with Jon is that he is teaching me about the chemical changes in my body depending on the foods I eat. Also that he makes me turn in a food log at the end of each week. I strive to one day hold myself accountable but until then… Jon does it without judgement or shaming. One of my biggest successes is learning to manage and control my IBS. Jon patiently poured over my food logs and symptoms until we figured out which foods I could eat. It was nice to have a teammate on this journey. I strongly recommend his services.

if your reading this review then your your probably at the point I was 4 months ago. Looking to make a significant, life changing, positive health and fitness leap. I have like most had a gym membership and it works then doesn’t then does. Without accountability from a coach you are in a constant cycle that doesnt produce consistent results. The difference with absolutraining all comes down to Jon Celis. Jon is a fitness expert. A nutrition expert. When you hire him he will not only teach you how to make fitness a new way of life but also how your food choices matter. He is friendly smart and holds you accountable. I genuinely feel like he cares about my fitness goals. When I joined his one on one coaching I had high risk cholesterol numbers. Within a few months my doctors cleared me of that concern. jons training had a significant role in those results. If you would like to talk to me to hear my experience you can call me at 949−689-five 4 one 5 for a live reference.
Call him now and join his program.
Thanks!

I’m a 47 year old firefighter that met this Jonathan Celis guy at jury duty. I was working out on my own, mostly doing the P90X video thing. I try to stay very active and I wanted to take my workouts to the next level. We have a very good wellness program where I work, and I have worked with many trainers, physical therapist, and nutritionist. This guy was talking about something a little different, a more unconventional approach, and I thought I would give him a chance. Well folks the jury is in. Absolutraining has definitely made a huge difference in my life. Jon has designed a full heath and fitness program that gets you lasting results. I am stronger then I have ever been and have loss inches of body fat. Jon expert knowledge of unconventional diet and workout methods really work.

Very motivating training no matter what level you are at. Everyday you see improvement with well thought out training and nutritional advice. Love these classes!

I can’t imagine the humdrum life of always being at the gym! I’m so glad I was referred to Jon Celis of Absolutraining. His outdoor workouts are so fun its almost like you aren’t «working out»! He has a unique approach to his classes and they are very well organized. They are definitely challenging but after coming consistently, I am always happily surprised at my increase in endurance and strength! I’ve worked with him one on one and I’m currently participating in his KettleBell class. He’s a very knowledgeable trainer, quick to expel any fitness myths and will take generous time to educate you with food and lifestyle tips. I highly recommend Jon Celis and Absolutraining!

Jon Celis is an expert and knows his stuff. I have worked out with him for several years and I dont think I have ever had two workouts the same. He is a great motivator too!

Jon and the team at Absolutraining are so much fun and take the training regiments serious! After just a few weeks of training, I started seeing major results and started feeling better and stronger then ever. I encourage anyone looking for core training regiment that will get you back in shape … to join Absolutrainings bootcamps.
Also, Jon offers great advice on nutrition and eating habits along with his training which is a bonus for anyone who is really looking for a lifestyle change.

Absolutraining with John is awesome! I have been involved in his bootcamp and Kettlebell classes and I am thankful I found a trainer who actually cares about his clients. I used to go to the gym for more than 6 years and it got to the point where my body just reached a plateu and my same boring workout routines was not cutting it anymore. So when my friend referred me to John I willingly gave it a shot and thankfully I did because he is one of the best trainers out there. He is friendly, funny, and shows alot of enthusiam towards his clients. Also he randomly sneaks in health tips and lessons during your workouts so not are you only getting your body into shape but your brain is also learning. So if you are looking for a better, more optimistic, and beneficial fitness program look no more because John is the one for you!
