CJ was born and raised Zion, IL, about an hour north of Chicago. He went to Northeast Mississippi Community College and then transferred to Ole Miss to finish up his bachelors in Exercise Science in 2015. I have always been fascinated with how the body moves and how it detects pain. I recently reached over 10,000 hours coaching clients and now plan to coach, coaches for 10,000 more!
Having the opportunity to intern with ID Fitness has truly been one of the most knowledgeable experiences I've been apart of. The mentorship from everyone in the gym was beyond insightful, and with the exposure to one-on-one client-based programming/training, I've walked away with so much confidence in working with others.

Since working here and being able to workout as well, I have learned so much from CJ. Not only did I learn how to properly workout and move the body but also learned great communication skills and how important structure is for trying to achieve goals. ID Fitness is a great gym and I would recommend anyone to come here and workout.

For those with physical limitations/disabilities, ID Fitness is the perfect fit. I was born with a mild physical disability and was looking for a gym that could provide the occasional support I needed but would also allow me to be independent when I could be. This is exactly what I found in ID Fitness.
CJ works with you where you're at and balances pushing you and making sure you're comfortable with your program in a way I have not found in any other gym. The coaches cultivate an environment of inclusivity to ensure everyone feels welcome, but also know when to step back and let you thrive on

CJ and all the coaches at ID Fitness have aided in my journey to being healthy. I set a goal in the spring of 2019 to be healthy by 40. I started eating better and joined ID Fitness in July 2019. The individual workouts designed to fit my specific goals has made a huge difference in my stamina, strength, confidence and overall health. The community environment helps make working out FUN and I enjoy going each day I do. I was "healthy by 40" this past summer and can't wait to see what the future brings.

What’s important to know about ID Fitness is that this isn’t a huge gym where you can hop on endless rows of treadmills. It’s much better than that. It’s a small gym where CJ (the owner) cares about your fitness goals and wants to help you achieve them in a way that makes you feel confident about yourself. If you go during the busy times, you’ll see lots of cool people that will laugh with you and encourage you. If you go during a quieter time, you’ll have privacy. It’s up to you, and that freedom is just part of what makes this place so great.
