Personal training in downtown Denver, for people whose bodies have a history

Who this is for

You're somewhere past 40. You ski, or golf, or run, or lift, or you'd like to again. Somewhere in your history there's a disc, a meniscus, a rotator cuff, a surgery, or just a back that goes when it feels like it.

You've been careful. Careful has made you weaker.

The middle path, loading a body enough to build it without waking the old injury, is a skill. Most gyms never had to learn it.

How a session runs

Your first visit is a 30-minute assessment. I watch you move. I find the one thing that changes your pain or your range the most, and you feel that change before you leave. Then I tell you plainly whether I can help, and if I can't, who can.

After that, sessions are 60 minutes, or 30 when that's what the work needs. We warm up around the thing you're worried about, we train hard everywhere else, and every few weeks we go back and test whether the worried thing is still worth worrying about.

It usually isn't.

What's different

I'm a personal trainer with two extra credentials most trainers don't carry. Cognitive Functional Therapy, trained under Peter O'Sullivan, is how I read what your pain system will accept. Applied Functional Science, from the Gray Institute, is how I work out where the load should go. Whoah, that got technical. In plain words: I know when to push and when the push is the problem.

23 clients have let me film their sessions. Every one of them rates their pain before and after on camera. Results vary from person to person. You can watch all 23 on the testimonials page.

The price, in one line

Your first visit is a 30-minute assessment, $57. After that, sessions are $200 for 60 minutes or $110 for 30, in the studio or on Zoom. Cash-pay, no referral, no insurance.

Nutrition is in the fee

I hold a Certificate IV in Nutrition Coaching, and it comes with every program. There's no separate nutrition appointment and no separate bill. If you're on a GLP-1 medication (Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro), the job is keeping your muscle while the weight comes off, and that's a training and food problem at the same time.

After an injury or surgery

Rehab ended when your visits ran out, or when you could climb stairs. It didn't end when you were ready to ski. That gap between "cleared" and "confident" is a training problem, and it's most of what I do. Cleared but not ready? Start here →

"I met Jamie when I had maximized my physical therapy program after ACL and medial meniscus reconstruction. It was the perfect transition for a "back to sport" program. We worked a ton on functional strength and stability. Thanks to Jamie's guidance, I was able to ski 50 days in my return to skiing, 55 the following year, and 61 days in '25–'26. In addition to the results, I saw, Jamie had a good evidence based approach which really spoke to me as I am a medical doctor myself."
