two medicine balls, three exercise tubes, and a Bosu Ball in the small
workout facility of our townhouse community. We soon realized that
we were going to need a more adequate space to train our clients, so our first
official studio space was the fitness facilities at The Avalon Hotel &
Spa in SW Portland. Working over the next few months to strengthen our
niche in the Health & Fitness community gave us the courage to take our
dream further and so J.Carlos Fitlab was born. We
officially became TTN in 2004 and opened our own studio. Today TTN has evolved to J.Carlos Fitlab at the current
location to serve the greater Portland area. We held strong to our dream
of becoming a tool for our clients to help them achieve their optimal
level of health & fitness, which has become our mission.
Our head trainer J. Carlos brings over twenty one years of health and fitness
experience to the training floor. He has a keen eye for looking
at the Mind, Body, Spirit connection and fusing the three in a way that uses
his physical therapy techniques in combination with his personal training
method to yield clients great
results. It’s with that keen eye that we have been able to focus on
injury prevention, pre & post rehab fitness, as well as successful
weight loss programs for our clients to get them lasting results and get them
performing
at their optimal best.
Our J.Carlos Fitlab family has grown over the years to include clients ranging in age from
16 all the way to 80 years young. So there is no need to be
intimidated when you come through our doors. No matter what your fitness needs
and wants are we will create a program that is suitable to you and that will
help you achieve your
higher level of health and fitness and improve your day-to-day living. We
are completely confident that once you experience what we have to offer
you will get hooked on Training Better for Life at J.Carlos Fitlab.
We strive to be an active part of the Portland community everyday and a
resource to all who walk through our doors for a healthy and fulfilling
life. We have been very fortunate over the years to add a fantastic group
of wellness professionals to our J.Carlos Fitlab family that have continuously shared
their expertise and services to better serve our clients and our
community. We are also grateful to be able to give back to our community
by regularly partnering up with local Family Resource Centers providing
care to local low income families, as well as numerous local Non-Profit
Organizations that help educate and provide cancer, Parkinson’s, diabetes, and
MS treatment services to those in need.
Living in the NW and loving it, has prompted us to participate in local running
events, hiking adventures, golf outings and much more of the fun stuff
that happens outdoors. So we just don’t train hard we also play hard
and enjoy life to the fullest. We thank God every day for all the
blessings in our lives, our wonderful family, our supportive friends and
our amazing clients. We look forward to welcoming you to our J.Carlos Fitlab family
and to many fun memories to come!
