Meet the Trainers Monday ✨

Jayse’s love of training started on the field. After growing up playing just about every sport, he eventually focused on football and competed as a running back at the University of Regina. His experience as an athlete gave him a firsthand understanding of what effective training looks and feels like.

After his playing career, Jayse moved into coaching as the Strength & Conditioning Coach for the U of R Rams football and Cougars basketball programs. Since then, he has worked with everyone from first-time lifters to professional athletes, tailoring each training plan to the individual.

Jayse takes a person-centered approach to coaching, focusing on collaboration and helping clients understand the “why” behind their training. His goal is to help you leave each session with a better understanding of your own training and how to make progress.

🎓 Certifications & Education:
-NSCA Certified Strength & Conditioning Specialist (CSCS)
-Master’s Degree in Sport Biomechanics (in progress)

Whether you’re new to strength training, looking to improve your performance, or ready to take your training to the next level, Jayse is here to help you build a plan that works for you.
