Background

Origin Story: James grew up playing sports—baseball, basketball, and football—but his fitness journey truly began when he enlisted in the Marine Corps at 17. The Marines taught him discipline, functional fitness, and the power of control over mind and body. After his service, James turned his focus to strength training, competing in powerlifting and later stepping into the world of bodybuilding.

For James, fitness became a way to build not just physical strength, but mental resilience, teaching him that we get out of life what we’re willing to put into it.

Training Style

  • Resilience Training: Pushing through physical challenges builds the mental toughness to overcome anything life throws at you.

  • Enjoy the Process: Training isn’t just about the end result; it’s about showing up, working hard, and having fun along the way.

  • Control What You Can: Life may be unpredictable, but health and physical fitness are within your power.

Catchphrase:

“Health and fitness are something we can control. Stay disciplined, and push through when life happens.”
