Josh,

Thank you for all your help with preparing for Sniper 2. The intense twelve weeks of training got me into the shape I was ten years prior when I did Sniper. Not only did I receive the training I needed, but also gained a life long friend.

I look forward to working with you on more films.

Throughout my ten years in the NFL, I have realized the importance of off-season conditioning and the impact a great Trainer can make in my performance on the field.

Working with Josh over the past three years has not only been enjoyable, it has kept me challenged. Joshs knowledge and innovative techniques have focused my training in becoming the most effective punter I can be. It is no coincidence that the goals I attained in the 2000 season were achieved after an intense off-season program with Josh.

"Josh Jordans professional experience and training have helped to keep me in peak condition for years. I have worked out with him for the last nine off-seasons, ever since our family has made our home on Hilton Head Island. His knowledge of anatomy and nutrition combined with his intense desire to bring out the best in his clients is a direct reflection of who Josh really is and what he cares about - you. Whether you are a professional athlete a weekend warrior or just someone who realizes the importance of taking care of your body, Josh knows how to get you to the performance level you desire. Dont waste your time anywhere else. Matrix is a no-nonsense chatter-free zone where every moment is about achieving your very best." Chris Gardocki, 15 year NFL veteran Punter, currently with the Pittsburgh Steelers.

 Arthur Phillips
Bestselling American Novelist"I am in pretty good shape, but definitely not a gym-person or a Personal-Trainer person. Josh got me excited about my workout, and centered it on something that I found fun (boxing). He built my strength and endurance fast, kept me working hard without letting me feel discouraged or like I was out of place in a gym. I made progress quickly and had a great time doing it. All the time, I knew I was in the hands of an expert.

 Bill Fletcher
Battle of Bulge Winner 2006After a 12 week program Bill Fletcher takes the overall in the competition with a total weight loss of 62 lbs and 41.5 inches total loss, and body fat drop from 36.3% to 22%!

As an active high school and college athlete, I never thought that Id have to worry about my weight. At 65" and weighing in at 200 lbs, I was a lean power-forward in my college days and voted "Rookie of the Year" in 1986 playing Division III basketball.

Once my athletic career ended in 1990 and I entered "the real world", I found that more and more of my time was spent sitting at a desk. Careless eating habits and a lack of motivation to keep my body in shape resulted in significant weight gain. When I was married in July 1990, I weighed 260 pounds. Over the course of the next 15 years, my weight would continue to escalate until I reached an astonishing 350 lbs in December 2005 (as seen in the attached photo with my family). In 2004 and 2005, I had been diagnosed with several medical conditions which were directly attributed to my obesity. I was hypertensive and placed on two medications to lower my blood pressure. I also had severe obstructive sleep apnea and was forced to sleep with an air pump at night in order to prevent my airway from collapsing.

Just like every January in years past, I was "resolved" that 2006 was the year to finally do something about my weight. I had been a yo-yo dieter for years and tried everything from Atkins, South Beach, the Beet diet, and other fad diets which always provided temporary success, but never a lifestyle change that I could wholeheartedly embrace; and the weight always came back and I would end up heavier than when I originally started the "diet".

In January 2006, I was one of the fortunate few who were selected to participate in the first annual Beaufort County Battle of the Bulge. It was during my participation in this 12-week program that I came to know Josh Jordan of Matrix Training Center. I trained with Josh twice a week for twelve weeks, and the results were no less than spectacular.

During that time, I shed an unbelievable 62 pounds. While the weight loss was certainly welcome, the by-products of that weight loss have been even greater. With proper diet and exercise, my blood pressure has normalized to the point where I am no longer on my blood pressure medications and I no longer have to sleep at night with my air pump. I have more energy and more self-confidence than I thought possible. As a husband and father, I can now enjoy activities with my wife and four children that I simply could not fully enjoy before.

I didnt just gain a new lease on life; I also gained a friend in Josh. Josh is fully dedicated to each of his clients and has a personal interest in helping them succeed at meeting their goals, whatever those goals may be. Each person is different and there is no "cookie cutter" fitness or nutritional program that will work for every single individual. Joshs years of training and expertise have given him the knowledge of how to tailor a program specifically to the needs of each client…and as you can see from my "before and after" pictures, the results speak for themselves.

I still have some fitness goals that I have yet to reach, but I can say with confidence that I know Im going to reach those goals. I couldnt have made that kind of declaration before meeting Josh Jordan. Josh showed me how to reach my goals safely and successfully, and I know he can do the same for anyone else who has the same desire to get serious and get fit.

Josh has been my Personal Trainer since December 1999 and he has greatly improved the quality in many aspects of my life. I attribute a 20 point drop in my diastolic and systolic blood pressure and a general feeling of well-being to the training and professional advice Josh provides.

Initially arthritic pain served as a primary motivator in seeking a regular exercise program. Today, I am happy to share I am pain-free.

At age 64, I feel as healthy as I did at 40!

Dear Josh,

Everyone here at Capital Club Richmond misses you. It was great having you and Mr. "Moore" as our guests. You should be proud of your accomplishments. As a fellow trainer, you have done a professional job in setting up your studio and your credentials are something to be envious of. Keep in touch. I would love to see your studio some day! Good luck!

In good health,
Brenda Asch

Trying to beat the clock of aging is a constant battle, especially when you hit your thirties and youve had children. But Josh Jordan and the staff at Matrix are pros when it comes to training hard and trying to achieve personal goals. Josh has been my Personal Trainer for nine years, and I couldnt have run in two half-marathons last year if not for what Ive learned from him and the Matrix staff. Josh truly cares about his clients and he wants what they want for themselves – a firmer body, the ability to make intelligent nutritional decisions, and a routine you not only stick with, but look forward to week after week." - Sally Gardocki

Robert Tanner
"After a couple of years of going to a gym and doing workouts on my own, cardio and strength progress were made, but I only had a minimal success in my goal of losing weight and reducing body fat. Since I started training at Matrix with the owner Josh Jordan on training sessions, I have lost over 30lbs and made significant reduction in body fat as well, all in about five months! The 24-Hour access He designed for his clients has also made it easy for me to go to the gym anytime I like, which means more often. My results are a direct result of the time and effort Josh has put forth to help me reach my goals."

"I have been training with Josh Jordan for the past year or so. In that time I have lost over 40lbs! I have gained a lot more confidence and now have a positive outlook in every aspect possible. Since working with Josh my golf game has improved. I am now able to hit the shots I need to hit to compete. I have generated more swing speed and flexibility due to training with Josh. I feel that I have complete control of my swing."

Josh,
As much as I thought you would enjoy the photo's please understand they are a direct result of the positive impact John has made in the lives of our children. I share this with you to commend your joint efforts at the Matrix to include our greatest assets, our children.

Nonni and Emma look on with respect to their instructor, peers and eachother. Learning to ask more of themselves and expecting to accomplish it. To me this is beautiful. Through the images below I do hope it will represent in some small way our gratitude and joy that comes with watching the growth of our children. Nonni is 8 and Emma 6.

Blessings Josh, Amee

If you would, please pass this message forward to Mr. Juarez. May our words of affirmation recomfirm the role and foundation he has begun to build.

Dear Joshua,

Thanks again for going to Cleveland Clinic with me: For Driving, waiting for me to finish eating, sticking with me that long day at the clinic, listening to the doctors and interpreting for me what they were saying, and for moving us "through the queue" when they had us just sitting and waiting!

Give my love to Lisa and Jaden.

Love always, Dad
