Imagine Fitness Personal Training Studio

Fantastic experience: Working with James has been amazing. His tailored approach focuses on meeting my goals and the studio has everything needed for a wide range of exercises. And the group classes are small, so it feels like another personal training session! If you are looking for a personal trainer in the Auckland CBD that focuses on strength and fitness for the over 40 crowd, James can't be beat!

Fantastic experience: I work in the city and noticed James's Imagine Fitness studio tucked away just between Albert and Queen Streets, and decided to check him out. I have just had 5 weeks of twice weekly sessions with James to get me on the road to preserving my bones and muscles as I enter into my mature years. James is knowledgeable, professional and has a great sense of humour! He made a woman like me, who hasn't set foot in a gym or bootcamp for many years, feel capable and comfortable. I also have the usual aches and pains that come with a desk job and muscle overuse related to all-day computer work, and James understood this and accommodated every exercise to minimise further aggravation and injury. Everything he showed me was challenging but doable, and even over the 5 weeks I saw remarkable progress, feeling stronger and fitter as each week has passed. James shows how just a short set of basic exercises two or three times a week can make all the difference, and everyone has time for one of James's routines! No more excuses - if you want to take charge of your physical health heading into your post-50's and you're not sure where to start, please get in touch with James. I'm so glad I did!

Fantastic experience: James kicked my butt back into a well needed routine, he's got practical easy-to-use methods to create lasting healthy habits with some decent banter along the way. Its not a big scary gym just a few people wanting to improve their fitness, go see him, you'll thank yourself!

Fantastic experience: I first heard about James through Facebook and was interested that he was advertising for people over 40 to train at his gym. As an older runner I wanted to add some strength training but didn't really know where to begin as I hadn't really been to a gym before for strength training. James put me at ease straight away and helped me understand the benefits of training at the gym, where I have now been going for over 2 years. James is very knowledgeable and has a nice easy manner to work with. I enjoy the small classes and would recommend anyone who is looking for a PT and a comfortable environment to train in, to either loose weight, keep fit or add some strength training to contact James.

Fantastic experience: First, I’m Lindy, not Graham, phone is having an identity crisis! I found James online when I was looking for a trainer to help kickstart my mid-life health and fitness journey. I completed a twelve week habit changing course at Imagine Fitness gym that included thirty minute PT sessions, not hours long routines. The gym environment is welcoming and although I did my sessions privately I occasionally met other clients who were a great group of like minded people. The best thing for me about the program was I found my ‘why’ for getting and staying healthy. I also enjoyed the accountability, I checked in every week with James who was supportive and encouraging as I cemented the new habits he suggested. Over the 12 weeks I lost an amazing 13.7kg. The day of my last session I flew to the US for six weeks, I had a blast and with my new habits in place I actually came home a kilo lighter, no dieting involved. If like me you need a mid life reset I would thoroughly recommend taking the first step and talking to James.

Fantastic experience: For the short time, that I have spent in Auckland, I found the Studio and James very welcoming and very professional. I thoroughly enjoyed every session! Hopefully see you all again in the near future.

Fantastic experience: If you are after a friendly & knowledgeable PT, then go see James. Great location in the Auckland CBD, which is so convenient for sessions during the working day. I started PT with James after the second lockdown in August & he really helped me kick start my workout motivation and increase my strength & fitness levels. I also really enjoyed the small group lunchtime classes and can highly recommend them!

Fantastic experience: James is just a great, personable guy who can certainly help anyone kick-start and maintain there fitness goals. I thoroughly recommend him. He helped me get my fitness levels back to where I wanted them to be. His honesty and referrals have now helped me move to the next level.

Fantastic experience: If you want to transform yourself physically and learn to stick with it then James program is a fantastic way to achieve your goal. I've been working out with James for 10 weeks and I've seen a real transformation I've lost more than 7kgs and more than 10cm from my waste. I sleep better, feel stronger and my general health has improved dramatically. The program is only 3 x per week for 30mins. The training is always different and James is very encouraging. I've been trying to get back in to working out for 15 years, and working with James is helping me to achieve my goal. If you want real change and have fun while you do it then do James's program, it's life changing. Scott.

Fantastic experience: I have been working with James for 5+ years on and off. Always excellent and responsive to the goals that I have. I would recommend Imagine Fitness to anyone in their target market (or outside for that matter) who wants to get back into a fitness regime or continue and extend existing fitness objectives.

Fantastic experience: Great little personal training spot in the middle of the city. Small groups of like minded members make for welcoming and friendly sessions. James was able to take into account some injuries and modify exercises as required. Would definitely recommend if you're looking for a holistic offering that includes fitness, weight loss and mindset training.

Fantastic experience: I found Imagine Fitness online and chose it because of its handy location. Have been training there for about 4 years. Started training with James this year on the 12 week transformation programme. The programme has been great and I lost 5 kgs. But more than That James helped me change my thinking around exercise and food. The sessions are challenging but rewarding and I am looking forward to continuing my journey.

Fantastic experience: A Google search brought up nearby Imagine Fitness, and I've been training with James now for the past 12 weeks. Not only have I lost over 3kg in weight and 3 inches from my belt, but my general mobility has improved, with fewer clicks and clunks from joints, plus easier walking up steps and hills. The best things about the small group sessions have been how James has tailored the exercises to our specific needs, and how every session has been different. I would certainly recommend James and have already pointed friends to his Studio.

Fantastic experience: A work colleague of mine recommended that I give training with James at Imagine Fitness a go. He really enjoyed the workouts that James designs and thought it would be something that I also could get into. I have been seeing James at Imagine Fitness for 3 months now and it has been a blast. The workouts he designs is engaging and I like the variety in them. They have helped me to gain a lot more muscle/strength which is what I was aiming for. If you are looking to improve your health and fitness I would recommend chatting to James.

Fantastic experience: Imagine Fitness is a perfect sized personal training studio where you get the one to one attention you need. I’ve been training with James for a decade now and I’ve seen some definite results through my time. James has tailored programmes according to injuries and illness, he’s been an integral part to my health and fitness through this time. Highly recommended!

Fantastic experience: Imagine Fitness led by James seemed to be a good fit for me so I joined up and attended twice a week for a year or so untill I changed jobs and location- really enjoyed the banter with James and the others- made training somewhat less painful. I can recommend it to others that are wondering if they should or not - having the one on one interaction with Jesse James was a bonus and even if I didn’t regain my youthful body I did enjoy the banter!

Fantastic experience: Great personalised gym. I have been working with James for over a year and each session is challenging and fresh. If you are looking for results then Imagine is the place to go. Thanks

Fantastic experience: A great compact personal training studio based in Auckland's city centre. Close to your work and easy to get to. Its clean, has good equipment and there are a choice of friendly trainers to choose from. James is an awesome personal trainer who really cares about his clients. His workouts are fun, challenging and varied. They can vary from boxing, to HIIT, to weights and body weight workouts. James understands the importance of balance and having fun while also looking after yourself. If you have any questions, get in touch and I'm sure he will be able to help you.

Fantastic experience: A well set up personal training studio in the Auckland CBD. Staffed by 3 helpful and cheerful trainers, James, Caleb, and Emma. I have been working with James for a number of years now. He is cheerful, knowledgeable, and attuned to the goals that I am striving to achieve. I have a number of orthopedic challenges that are the result of both past injuries and middle age; James works in conjunction with my physiotherapist to ensure the best outcome. My observation of the other trainers is that they are equally professional and friendly, and I would recommend them to anyone.
