This is fantastic and quite a,challenge

This challenge is challenging for me, that's why I love it . James Lay is amazing as a coach, something for everyone

I like the recovery program as my warm up and cool down routines. They complement the reload program perfectly. Well worth it. And if you’re recovering from surgery and rebuilding your strength it’s perfectly tailored for it.

This was a perfect fit for the days when I have lower energy or my knee is too sore or swollen to do the reloaded exercises. Enjoying this program very much. I would highly recommend this to beginners just starting their fitness journey.

Seems to be very good. I haven’t had much time to do this challenge yet but I’ll start later. I got an apartment and now things are probably spinning in the move for a few weeks. When I get to a new apartment I can only focus on myself and only on myself. This is where change, power and development becomes a new better self. Thank you for these challenge programs! 5 stars !!!

All Jame´s Challenges are EXTRAORDINARY!, they complement, expand, reform and adapt to the needs of each suscribers. James is accesible at all times resolving our doubts and concerns. I have already signed up for all his Challenges (4 Programs of diferents levels) and I have no doubt that it is the best thing I have done for my health and physical transformation. I recommend it to all types of the people, ages and levels, both begginers and advanced.

I purchased this program after completing one of James Lay’ earlier challenges. The confidence and desire to push myself to new levels is what I’m most proud of…and my progress to hitting my goals is a huge bonus! I’ve gained muscle mass, lost belly fat, tightened up my core like never before, and have better balance and leg strength! He has put together an amazing program that can be tailored to every fitness level and ability!

Has been the best life decision I've made recently!

I’ve enjoyed the challenge in the workout sessions. It’s just what I needed to get back in gear and push myself to do harder things.

James Lay inspires me daily to force myself to complete my hour class whether I feel like it or not. So far, so good.

This certainly was a great start for my exercise journey.. I also love that I am still connected to the original group. I still can step into Strength or Premium Program to increase my level. I think James has done an excellent job to pull this all together!

Worked hard at doing these exercises. They were challenging.

Really challenging, but doable.

This is the second challenge of James I am doing and absolutely love it! In the past 7 weeks I have gained strength, stability, confidence and lost 10lbs so far! I joined to strengthen my core and back as I have a herniated disc and want to have more strength and so far that is what is happening. The bonus part, a great community that we have fun and laughs in as well as information. Can't say anything bad about this challenge and cant thank James enough for doing these 🫶❤️

This is my second of James' programs, and this one is just as good as the first. I like how it builds on what was previously accomplished. James does a great job of challenging you wherever you are. He is supportive and encouraging. His passion for fitness shows through his commitment to each participant.

Great so far, the exercise videos are easy to follow.

I love the Reloaded Premium Challenge! It’s challenging but fun and time goes by so quickly, you don’t even realize you worked out for an hour. James and Tabitha are great!

Love the exercise programs - challenging but doable, a terrific coaching team and a wonderful, diverse, supportive group of participants.

Absolutely love the ease of using the app, also absolutely love the fact that you attach videos of how to do each exercise. It’s honestly fool proof

I love the slow burn knowing I’m actually working out.

I like it so o can get into shape. I’ve lost a lot of weight almost 95 lbs and have trouble areas on my body that need toned and loose skin. This will help me out a lot. Thanks James

This is perfect for us who have limited mobility or have injuries. After the first day I knew it was working as I had that good burn feel in my muscles. Worth its weight in gold.

The way the program was set up was for any and all abilities. Easily adaptable and with the alternative moves for those of us with limitations it was an amazing experience. Very happy with this program. James put a lot of thought, time and energy into this to make it the best experience you could want. Recommend this program 100%.

James has put together a solid program that meets you where you are at. His attention to detail and genuine concern for his clients shines through in his videos, descriptions, and responses to questions. He is very knowledgeable on all things fitness related, and is able to enhance or modify based on your needs. Just over halfway through the program I have lost several inches, feel stronger, see more definition, and my clothes fit better. I can't wait to see my progress at the end!

I love it so far , lost 25 pounds so I’m 15 away from my goal. The atmosphere is amazing , and the workout outline is so precise and to the point. Only thing I would change is for some , when doing the videos maybe describe in steps what you’re doing for some of the participants it might help. Other then that your doing an amazing job.

I purchased this challenge to get tone, in all the problem areas and I am already noticing the changes I was hoping for. I still have 2 1/2 weeks left and I am very pleased and excited to see the final results! James is a great coach and very knowledgeable in his field. Numerous people in the challenge have varying disabilities and he has provided alternative exercises for those that need them. James is very interactive with the group: * answering questions timely * providing recommendations on various supplements, pre-workout/recovery protein powders * getting discounts on various products * interacting in community chats * encouraging individuals and giving praise * very down to earth I can’t express enough what a great coach he is. I am so happy I signed up. He wants us to succeed just as much as we do. Highly recommend to anyone considering joining one of James’ challenges because you won’t be disappointed!

Ive been a follower of James for about 4 years now. When I seen him for the first time on Tic Toc I was hooked i had never seen exercises like these before. The more I watched the more I realized how unique his way of training was and I loved it. He made it look so simple that I was like I can do this. Two years later he put his thought to action and starts this online training and yes I was the very first one too sign up. James and his team have put together a fantastic program that is easy to follow every exercise has modifications if anyone needs them James and his team have put so much thought into this program that anyone young or old could do it. Also theres plenty of guidance and directions if needed. With the best community of people who motivate and help each other. I love this program.

This has been an awesome experience! I am so glad I overcame my insecurities and joined the challenge. I was afraid it would be too difficult or advanced. But James is a great coach and made alternative sets for those of us who couldn't move or bend the way the original program called for. He answered all of our questions right away and explained things we didn't understand. And in the beginning there was a lot! He even helped with advice on at home devices/equipment, supplements, food/water, etc. I always knew he was a great guy, but this proves he's a magnificent coach and trainer who really cares about us and if we're successful in meetingour goals. He really cares about his craft and it shows!

This has been one of the best training experiences I have ever participated in. It’s not intimidating. You work at your own pace and get results. 100% recommend to everyone no matter your fitness level.

Love everything about this experience.. it's really helping me.

Love the program! Exercises were explained on how to perform, the daily breakdown on which exercises to do and also helps with accountability. There is no guessing on ‘What should I do today’. Love the structure and if there are any questions, they get answered. Never felt like I was on an island by myself. The community support is also top notch!

Overall a great experience I would not want to miss! I love the great motivational charakter, the group dynamics, the outstanding support from James and from group members. James listens to members' questions and needs and reacts to them. Could not be better. 👍🏼👍🏼

Having a great experience.

I purchased this challenge after going through chemo and losing muscle mass, in hopes of regaining some of that muscle and balance. I wasn’t sure what to expect and if it would just be one program for all type of a thing or even just an AI work out that’s put out one time. Turns out that James Lay not only had the workout plans, but he had several plans, depending on what level you were at. He also kept in contact with the entire group doing the challenge and quickly replied to anyone who had a question about an exercise or needed modifications or even alternative exercises what I ended up getting was a program that felt like a personal program created for me without it being a one on one coaching session. At this point, I am halfway through the first challenge and have lost 2% of my body fat and gained 2 pounds of muscle, which is what my goal has been. My body definition is already better. My posture has been noticeable to other people and my balance is not perfect, but I’m definitely able to do moves with less support compared to when I started 3 weeks ago! I can’t recommend this challenge and its creator and trainer, James Lay, enough! I will update my review with my final numbers in three weeks when this first challenge is over. I’ve already signed up for his next challenge to continue right after this one!

An excellent program, excellent response and guidance by James Lay. Couldn't of asked for a better start to doing a structured exercise program.

The Foundation Phase: Strength Starts Here has been an EXTRAORDINARY experience, exceeding my expectations in every way. James Jay is a magnificent trainer, not only because of the quality of his program, but also because he's available for any questions or concerns we may have. He helps us with things like nutrition and supplements, and best of all, he adapts the program to each of us based on our fitness level and needs, personalizing the exercises to our individual goals. I've only been on his Challenge for three weeks, and I already feel so much better, more agile and toned, and I've lost 13 pounds! I will definitely sign up for all his programs. I´ll give him an 11 out of 10.

I've followed James for a while now and am in awe of his accomplishments in his fitness. As soon as he said he was going to launch hid online coaching I signed up. I knew he would be awesome but he has gone above and beyond my expectations. Nothing is too much trouble , if you need a particular exercise explained of modified specifically for your abilitities he's straight on it. Your safety, comfort and being part of the wonderful caring community he has helped to nurture is his priority. He's managed to build a family of like minded participants who want to better themselves but also care for each other and have a giggle while doing so. In my humble opinion James is highly underrated in his chosen field of excellence. I highly recommend anyone of any age and fitness level to sign up and follow James, they won't regret their decision.

I found that doing the exercise the right way makes it easier. If I fall, I fall but I get back up and start over. It's simple movements and I'm building my confidence one set at a time.

This program is wonderful. James and the crew within the community are helpful, uplifting, and spot on with the exercises.

These body weight exercises target the muscles you are really interested in building. So far very good!

This is amazing workout/program!!

You emailed me that my review on either 21 or 22 had misapplied the star rating. And that for a 5 star rating I should have just left the stars as they were. You say that you removed the rating (because I clearly said I rate James challenge as 5 stars… I hope you did not remove my written comments. It is hard to rethink about all that James has brought to this challenge program……..I initially signed up just to support his endeavors…but what he has achieved here is amazing… this is not just a series of exercises, he has created a community ! One with the focus on how to eat healthy, hydrate healthy & move well in your daily life. These are the building blocks of health & fitness. And what’s truely incredible is how he has unified us into a team whose members support and care about each other. Besides exercises there is joy & laughter & caring. This is all his doing and there are not enough words to express our gratitude to him, or completely express the praise he deserves…..yes indeed 5 stars & more

I love the explanation of each exercise. How James has adjusted it for every stage of a person's physical abilities. James is receptive to all comments. He's encouraging. He answers all questions, gives additional information. James is funny and has fun with his group. It is great to be able to go somewhere and feel safe!!!!!!
