“I’ve made more progress with Matt in 3 months than I did on my own in 8 months and the difference has been astounding.”

“On December 21st of 2021 I had a hip replacement.  After initial post surgery period of six weeks I began my comeback at Old Port Fitness with Jillian. Under her guidance and watchful eye we slowly got me on the road to recovery.  This recovery was designed to get me back performing at a high level of efficiency. Jillian has got me there.  This summer I have competed in the  Super Senior Club Championship at Oakmont Country Club in Pennsylvania,  Maine Senior Amateur Golf Championship and the Super Senior at Portland Country Club. We are not finished, currently the plan calls to get me ready for a return to skiing this winter.  I look forward to my first day back on snow, and I have Jillian to thank for getting me there. The culture at Old Port Fitness is about achieving your best.  To be your best you need to tap into top professionals. I would recommend Old Port Fitness to anyone wanting to up their game.”

“What I like about Matt’s training style is that he is patient, thorough and extremely knowledgeable. He fully explains the ‘what and why’ of everything he has you doing and really listens to your needs, goals and limitations. He is also very easy to talk to and non-judgemental. At the same time, he is no pushover and is serious about having you work harder each session to improve.”

“I started body work with Jillian at the Bay Club for severe back and shoulder problems and followed her to Old Port Fitness. 
‘What should we work on today?’ Jillian will ask. ‘My back,’ I’ll answer. Jillian starts at my feet, or calves, or quads, or hamstrings, and I leave more flexible, able to move with less discomfort. I have taken several ELDOA classes with Jillian and find the stretching very beneficial. I highly recommend Old Port Fitness!”

 “Matt Jones has trained my entire family at various times over the past several years. He customized workout plans to our 18 year-old Marine poolee (who went on to earn top scores in PT at Pensacola Naval Air Base training), myself, a middle age tennis player wishing to develop strength and flexibility while improving her game, and my husband, a computer programmer just wanting to receive modern and scientific training techniques to improve overall his fitness and stamina. Not only does Matt have the technical knowledge and skill to advise clients, he has the personality to keep clients coming back and encouraged; it has made a difference in all of our lives.”

"I started working with Jillian when she was teaching spin classes at USM  in 2012. Looking for a focused workout that included strength training, I began personal training with her soon after. Her commitment to whole body health has made me not only stronger, but also contributed to my overall ability to continue to do the activities I love. My golf game has improved, and I am not fatigued after 14 holes. I continue to enjoy winter sports. I feel like I can do any physical activity I wish. She has also helped me through injuries, specifically a shoulder injury that prohibited me from extending my arm fully. She's dedicated to her profession and her clients. I highly recommend her and Old Port Fitness.”
