Affordable Online Coaching Reviews 

Awesome! I was already a very active individual when joining JSA but I used to only attend classes (which used to cost me around £80/month). I was heavily relying on cardio in various forms.
With the JSA coaches I have developed a healhier approach to fitness/food and noticeably changed my physique.
If you get easily bored of your gym routine, your programme gets redeveloped every 4 weeks so there's always something exciting to look forward to!:) couldn't recommend more

I love this program. You have access to a lot of coaches with different specialties so you get a lot of knowledge. It feels a little weird at first taking to do many different people but a year in and I really enjoy it. Having custom built workout plans at you fingertips and access to talk to James directly if you want to has made this last year a success for me. At some point I think I will get to a place where I don't need the help all the time to, as their goal seems to be too make you self sufficient. For now though, it's a small price to pay getting the help I need to live a healthier life.

Better than having a PT in real life. Holistic approach, coaches have experienced weight gain etc so know what you are going through. Take into account medical conditions, as well. They keep you on track and hold YOU accountable for YOU!

A great platform. Individually focussed workouts, recipes and nutrition support and coaches who respond to queries, provide advice and are an important part of the accountability. I would recommend it.

I signed up after watching James on YouTube. I wanted to loose weight as getting older and James advertised this app so thought I would give it a go. I will say straight away I have lost around 5kg in 5 weeks so for me it works. However I just feel for the price I can’t justify it. I can get all the info online and have the resources on my phone to help me achieve my goals as I was using them via James app. There are also other apps in the market place that offer very similar, what you pay a week for JSA you can get for a month elsewhere. I will be honest and say I am a bit gutted to be cancelling. Unfortunately for me it is about cost and I can’t afford it. Another thing that did frustrate me a little was my calories were not being pulled in from another app so had to manually adjust it, a small issue but a pain nonetheless. I sent a support email over and got no reply. I did enjoy speaking to the coaches, however it is a different coach each time so does not feel fluid or that you are building relationships. I will also say that the weight I lost was walking and calorie deficit without feeling hungry, had I down the works outs in the app I am sure I would have lost more or built muscle.

Once again it worked for me but is all down to cost and the perceived value, sorry. If my finances change I will be back.

**** update

Unfortunately I can re reply to you directly, yes I agree I can’t lie about my loss and agree ago I relation to how much a coach costs and if I could continue bi would. But like I say it’s down to costs, I now have the fundamentals. But is still does not compete with others. Bit I have so far used the coaches as chit chat or I could have got the info off the internet. Either way it worked for me, it too exp for me to continue.

James and his team have been great.

They are very attentive to any questions you have, advice, fresh workouts, and any niggling questions you need to answer.

The app also has meal tips, visible examples of how to do each exercise and the logging system which integrates with other apps such as my fitness pal, health and others is seamless.

I’ll miss using this app as I’m having to leave due to my finances, but if I could stay with them I would.

Hoping to rejoin one day!

Every coach was super friendly and explained everything really well. There was never a stupid question. The training programmes were altered every 4 weeks for me and I asked for certain exercises to be included which was great. I love the way the exercises are explained with a video beside every exercise.

I have just finished my third challenge with JSA and I have found it extremely effective and support on my journey to loosing fat. The JSA coaches have been on the chat for me to answer questions, help me troubleshoot things or mindset struggles.They are all so positive and encouraging which can be just the backup you need on the harder weeks. I have had less and less hard weeks since joining, the gym has become something I enjoy and the calorie deficit a tool that I can use without going on mad restricted diets.
James Smith offers fun lives where you can ask questions and feel part of the bigger picture and there is a library of videos about diet, gym and warmup etc. The gym programs are great and can be changed if certain exercises don't suit. You can track each session though the app! It's just brilliant

Joined JSA for the first time in September after seeing there was a 12 week challenge I didn’t know what to expect as I was new to the whole gym thing. The challenge and the coaches are utterly amazing! The coaches are fantastic so helpful, kind and really care about your success. They pointed me in directions I never thought I’d even think about - I now do yoga thanks to some advice for the coaches on flexibility and I love it. Never thought yoga would be for me. The exercise programs are amazing and any amendments you need on a program they are so accord make it work around you.

The coaches check in with you help u set goals and give fantastic feedback on form videos if ever I’m unsure on how I’m doing they give me great advice to ensure my exercise is being done correctly. It’s honestly the guidance I definitely needed I’ve lost weight. Toned up and set myself goals I never thought I could! I’m so grateful for this platform! Great support, advice, help and assistance along with workout programs tailored to me!!

My only thing is that I wish I joined earlier in life. Just turned 40, getting married next year and saw a photo that made me kick myself up the bum! Joined JSA and this is definitely the best thing I could do. No pressure on doing loads, small steps to help with changes so you then adapt to a new way of thinking.
My relationship with food and exercise have changed drastically...no more yo yo dieting, no more thinking of food as good or bad, and the workouts are what you want to do, adapted to help you achieve. I have really bad hips, have had numerous operations and the coaches take that in consideration when putting a programme together, and if there is something you struggle with, they adjust it and suggest alternatives
And the coaches! My goodness these guys are just amazing! So supportive, no pushing, full of great advice and just amazing! I can't thank them all enough
This is something that I will now be doing for a lifetime, not for a quick fix!
Thanks JSA!!

I’ve been a member on and off for several years. There’s nothing like JSA! I have 6 kids, including toddler twins, and I can have a workout program customized for my exact needs, which is a mixture of at home and gym workouts. I chat with the coaches just about everyday and they help me navigate day to day situations so that they align with my goals. They never make me feel guilty, but sometimes give me the tough love I need. They are overwhelming encouraging. I’ve lost 17 pounds this year, gained confidence in the gym, and feel great!

I joined JSA for the first time, and it has been an excellent experience. Achieving impressive results in just 12 weeks felt effortless, thanks to enjoyable workouts and encouraging coaching. I've established good habits and highly recommend it to anyone.

Can’t wait for the next 12 week challenge!

Having been a member of JSA for a few years, I can honestly say it’s life changing! I cannot tell you how different my mindset is. I’ve just completed my first 12 week challenge, and the results I have achieved are amazing, not just physically, but mentally. The academy is full of so much useful information and amazing coaches, who just want to help you succeed! 🥰 The coaches are there for you (no matter what the subject) with great advice and help whenever you need it. Joining JSA, was the best thing I ever did. I am so looking forward to where this takes me 🥰

I’m thoroughly enjoying being part of this programme , this is the best I’ve felt about myself in a long time and I’m seeing great results !!! The coach check ins are good for keeping me motivated and they are always on hand for friendly positive advise , in my opinion it’s well worth being a part of this , I’m so glad I joined !!!

I've been with JSA 3 months and can't recommend it highly enough. From the moment I signed up I have received an excellent service. Instructions came through straight away on how to get the app and how to engage with the trainers, choose your goals and request a workout plan. The app has lots of educational content as well as being motivational. There are tailored work out plans for your goals or if needed the trainers will write one for you. I had some very specific limitations and these were all catered for with empathy and understanding. The coaches are extremely knowledgeable and friendly and message back promptly if you contact them. In the 3 months I have been using the service I have lost 22 lb and my health has improved immensely. JSA is unbelievable value for money and if you are looking for online training it can't be beaten.

While I started off aiming for fat loss (which I did achieve) I got so much more! This process has got me back into fitness, I’m stronger and moving my body more. It’s made me more mindful in what I eat and drink and taking responsibility for what I put in my body. I’m sleeping better, have more energy and can manage my stresses better by focusing on what I can achieve. The coaches are amazing, responsive and offer helpful advice and overall motivating comments. Will definitely be signing up for the next challenge.

I have been a member of JSA for a few years joining during the pandemic and working out from home. The trainers are so helpful giving you support and accountability whenever you need it. I’ve toned up since doing the gym workouts. And have made changes to the way I think about food. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend JSA. Try it it might just change your life! Thank you JSA! Karen

Having been a member of JS Academy since the start, i can honestly say its by far the best platform to be part of. The coaches are always there for you, regardless of what you want or advise you need, they are worth their weight in gold. Thank you all. Can't wait for the next challenge.

This is my 1st time joining JSA and I found it excellent. I can't believe the results I got in just 12 weeks without feeling like it was a hardship. I've put in place good habits, enjoyed the workouts and found the coaching to be so encouraging and excellent. I would highly recommend to anybody.
