I have really enjoyed the combination of strength training and boxing within one session - keeping it fun while also being a great workout. Scott is great at motivating you to push harder without being too intimidating! I have noticed great improvements in my strength and endurance. Scott pays particular attention to form during the workout which I appreciate as I know so many that have injured themselves through inappropriate training. I can't speak highly enough of Scott and OBFT and would highly recommend them!

I have been training at various gyms all my life. At 43 years of age, I've been hitting gyms on and…read moreoff for quite some time. In January 2016, I was recommended by a close friend to try the JUST TRAIN IT boxing gym she was attending. At first, I was cold to the idea of putting on boxing gloves for the first time at my age. Not only did I think it would be too different of a workout style, but how terribly I would embarrass myself in an actual boxing class. But...I knew I needed to shed some weight and get into something that would keep my health in check. 3 Months later, I had shed nearly 30lbs attending an average of three classes a week! Needless to say JUST TRAIN IT has been a huge success for me. The training staff and the class members have now become my support and motivational group, giving the inspiration and drive to keep me coming to classes every chance I get. The JUST TRAIN IT team truly cares for everyone's well being and health. They set up training at a pace where anyone at any age, level of fitness or weight can have a successful workout. 6 months into my membership, I have been addicted to classes in a way I had never expected. I walk into every class welcomed by caring peers and a training staff ready to bring the best out in me. It is truly a wonderful experience being a member at JUST TRAIN IT. Watching what I eat, exercising, and learning how to box has become a joy. Having a team of trainers and members along side of me as I train has been the key to success. I recommend JUST TRAIN IT to anyone who is looking to get healthier while meeting an amazing group of people!

3 laws of physics, by issac newton: 1. Gravity. (What goes…read moreup must come down) 2. Inertia. (An object in motion stays in motion unless stopped by an immoveable force) 3. The push-pull effect (every action has an equal and opposite reaction) "It's all connected" -jack dempsey I suggest jack dempsey's books, "championship fighting", and "how to fight tough". He wrote how to fight tough, while he was a lieutenant, in ww2. In the u.s army. Championship fighting, his boxing book, is used in jeet kune do. Believe it or not, his book describes how to actually do the wing chun vertical jab, than any other book. The entering jolt, the falling step, it's all there. bruce lee called it the one inch punch, but it's just a strong 3 knuckle vertical jab. It was my trick to always hit hard with my lead hand. Easy to train. Jack dempsey's isometric excersises from his book championship fighting, really help. I love all martial arts, and that includes boxing. "What creates the strength of a knockout punch isn't about being a big man, it's about the shoulder snap, and the speed at which you throw the punches" -mike tyson "Be like water. Formless. Shapeless. You put it into a cup, it becomes the cup. You put it into a teapot, it becomes the teapot. Water can flow, or it can crash. Be water, my friends." -bruce lee Marching is taught for the same reason as boxing/kickboxing roadwork. Teaches you how to run, kick, and throw basic hard punches and throw objects without hurting yourself. Like baseball. Or any sport. It's called ergonomics. How your skeleton uses the 3 laws of physics, and tranfers weight. Like how you pick something up using your legs/knees instead of your back. Or how you push something using your legs. Or how you turn into throwing something like a punch or an object, with your legs. "Kung fu lives in everything we do" -jackie chan "Everybody is kung fu fighting" -carl douglas The irish riverdance and scottish sword dance performed by many scottish and irish children and adults alike are built around the footwork of sword fighting. It also has the same footwork as proper low kicks, because kicks were used by the highlanders in combat, aided by the "freeflowing design" of the kilt, that scottish highlanders are known for. Gotta love google. You can find anything on it, with reliable sources. Recently started going to hamilton jeet kune do, at 1050 paramount. Jeet kune do is boxing+kickboxing+karate+judo+fencing+muay thai+wing chun kung fu. It's not better, or anything. It's just a mixed style. Bruce lee and jack dempsey are often credited as the fathers of MMA. My name is literally david. David and goliath. Centrifugual force. A spinning wheel. He literally used it to hurl a rock at goliath, according to the story. If anyone was wondering why i was always in such a good mood. Thanks for never failing to prove me right, every step of the way. I learned a lot about myself, including the fact that i'm sharp as a razor, even when people want to treat me like i'm stupid. Tools exist. Hammers, wrenches. I didn't invent them. Mechanical devices. Gears. The cars you drive. It's literally everywhere. They don't teach you anything, they just take your money, and pick on you for trying to learn anything whatsoever.they constantly make up lies about you, and treat you like you're stupid. Go to hamilton jeet kune do instead. You'll learn the same things, plus more, and in an environment where people won't use you as a human punching bag, and laugh at your mistakes, and lie to you about anything you try to learn outside of the gym, espescially if it works. Would never go again, not even for free. How they treat people is disgusting

I feel duty-bound to warn fellow Burlington residents about this gym…read more First, I'll say that as far as MMA gyms go, I had no complaints. Sure, it's rough and equipment has seen better days, but the classes and instructors are good and I'm sure it's a proper fighters' gym if that's what you're looking for. But be warned, they auto renew memberships without paying any heed to Ontario's Consumer Protection Act, which requires a notice period, cooling off period etc. Money comes off your credit card and you have no way of getting it back. I'm out more than $1000 for a family membership that auto renewed despite us not using the gym for the last 8 months of our year's membership. We stopped going because they had moved from previous location (no complaints, they are entitled to do so) and classes no longer being convenient to get to for us based on where we live. I didn't ask for a refund on the year we paid for, I just sucked it up and moved on and we attended the gym and classes as often as we could but eventually stopped going around April of 2025. The membership was due to end in November or December. Then it auto renewed in November 2025 without me getting a reminder. I immediately emailed to ask for refund, and they have ignored me ever since. I have called about 8 times, emailed at least that many times. I checked their Google reviews and I'm not the only one this has happened to. Be warned. I'll see what I can do with the Ontario Consumer Protection Act but I suspect my $1000 is gone up in smoke. Don't let it happen to you.
