“I started training with Jessica Kalynchuk on January 5th 2026 after the holidays because I wanted to make some positive changes in my life. My goals were to build strength and muscle, tone my body, learn healthier eating habits, and gain confidence using weights safely while living with EDS and MS. I came across one of Jessica’s Facebook posts, and it immediately grabbed my attention because I had been wanting to work with a trainer for a while. What made me feel even more comfortable was her background in kinesiology and her understanding of the body, mobility, injuries, and strength training. One of the tools we used was MyFitnessPal, which really helped me better understand nutrition, calories, protein, carbs, and fats in a way that felt realistic and achievable for my goals. I trained with Jessica for about 4 months, and during that time I gained strength, confidence, muscle, and a much better understanding of how to safely train while being hypermobile from EDS. She helped me learn proper form, avoid injuries, and slowly trust my body again. Living with EDS and MS comes with a lot of physical and mental challenges, and walking into a gym environment honestly felt intimidating at first. Jessica helped me overcome many of those fears through her patience, encouragement, guidance, and genuinely caring personality. You can truly tell she loves what she does and loves helping people, and that’s something that really stood out to me. One moment that really meant a lot to me was when she shared one of my training videos and called me her “client win of the week” after hitting a 100 lb hip thrust despite my own health challenges. Moments like that helped remind me that strength looks different for everyone and that progress should always be celebrated. I truly wouldn’t have come this far without her support, and she will always be a part of my health journey. The staff at Genuine Gym were also incredibly kind, welcoming, and supportive throughout my experience there. I’m walking away from this chapter with so much more knowledge, confidence, strength, and gratitude, and I highly recommend Jessica to anyone looking for an amazing trainer with both knowledge and heart 🤍”Read moreShow less

“I started my fitness journey with Jess at a time when I had a really unhealthy relationship with food and working out. From the very beginning, she created such a supportive and positive environment that completely changed the way I view working out and taking care of myself. Jess has a way of pushing you that’s motivating and direct, but never aggressive or overwhelming. Because of her, I’ve gained so much confidence in the gym and now actually enjoy working out on my own. She’s helped me realize that fitness is about becoming stronger both physically and mentally, and that mindset shift has been life-changing for me. She also goes above and beyond outside of training sessions, always sending fun recipes to try and genuinely caring about her clients as people. On top of being an amazing trainer, she’s just such a kind and sweet person. I’m so grateful for everything she’s helped me achieve and I truly can’t recommend her enough.”Read moreShow less

“I have been working out at Genuine Athletics with Jess since February, and it has truly been the best experience. Jess has completely changed the way I workout, and how I approach nutrition. I went to Jess hoping to learn a few things and get into a better routine, and I now find myself looking forward to our sessions every week, and feeling motivated in between. If you're looking for someone to help kick you into high-gear, she is your girl. Truly a wealth of knowledge, and extremely passionate about what she does. Additionally, the facility is such a treat to workout at. Highly recommend!”Read moreShow less

“I’ve trained with Jason Bell and am currently training with Byron Ruvalcaba, and after just over a year with the Genuine Athletic team, I can confidently say the experience has been exceptional. When I first began my fitness journey, I struggled with significant mobility limitations and even had difficulty walking long distances. Their programming met me exactly where I was — thoughtful, personalized, and grounded in real expertise. Every session is challenging in the best possible way, pushing me while never feeling unsafe or overwhelming. What truly sets them apart is their ability to explain why we’re doing each movement and how it connects to my goals. That clarity has made a huge difference in my consistency and confidence. My strength, mobility, and overall performance have all noticeably improved. If you’re looking for trainers who are knowledgeable, reliable, and genuinely invested in your progress, I highly recommend the Genuine Athletic team.”Read moreShow less

“I’ve been training with coach Byron for two months now, and I can confidently say it has been worth it. As someone who was just starting out in the gym, not knowing how to properly workout, or the right forms, Byron was able to teach me, the right techniques, and made me more confident working out on my own. Within the few months we’ve been training I’ve seen a lot of progress and I’ve been more confident in my body. Byron treats all his clients like family, and I recommend him to anyone thinking about starting personal training! The gym itself is really nice too, the vibes are good, and the staff ,is all incredibly nice and I’m thankful to be training here!”Read moreShow less

“After a car accident in 2022, I struggled to find the right massage therapist until I met Demi Kyrtsos at Genuine Athletics in 2024. Demi is extremely knowledgeable and has an incredible ability to find and treat the exact areas in my neck and back that need attention. She is kind, funny, and a great listener, and I always leave feeling much better. I also want to acknowledge Shianne at the front desk, who is always warm, welcoming, and very helpful. Jason, the owner, has created a wonderful atmosphere at Genuine Athletics. I highly recommend Demi and the entire team to anyone looking for excellent care and support for their health.”Read moreShow less

“Genuine Athletics is great—always spotless, welcoming staff, and such a strong family-like atmosphere. The equipment is top-notch, well maintained, and constantly being updated. For a Personal Trainer, I can’t recommend Desirae enough! She’s amazing at what she does. From day one, she made me feel comfortable, supported, and motivated to push myself. Her energy is contagious, and she knows exactly how to challenge you while still making workouts fun. If you’re looking for a trainer who will hype you up, hold you accountable, and genuinely care about your progress, Desirae is your girl! 💪✨”Read moreShow less
