Owner BONDTraining & ACTIV8TE Gym Program Lead.
With 20+ years personal training experience and 20+ years of competitive cycling experience, Jason is passionate to share how a consistent commitment in the gym will help you achieve your short-term and long-term physical pursuits.
Jason has worked with elite level athletes across a variety of disciplines and has spent the last 15 years pioneering and refining his highly successful MTBdryland program in North Vancouver, providing the highest-level performance related gym experience for people that love to ride their bike. His program attracts a wide range of professionals and is THE go to winter dryland training program for bike industry professionals on the North Shore.
Outside of his Gym training - Jason is a PMBIA Certified Bike coach, most recently adding BMX coaching to his Cycle BC Certifications.
Jason’s love for riding started at an early age in Lakefield, Ontario riding a BMX. In his teens, he and his family moved to Kelowna, BC. Where he fell in love with mountain biking and renewed his thirst for the sense of freedom and adventure that two wheels (regardless of the bike type) could provide.
He also found that competitive cycling was a great personal outlet providing opportunities to expand his knowledge of himself, of human physiology and an opportunity to explore the art of riding.
As a result he has acquired a range of riding and competitive experience - from BMX, road racing (from crits to Randonnee’s), Cyclo-cross and Mountain Biking in all of it’s shapes and iterations (including slopestyle, 4x, XCO, ultra-XC, DH, BCBR & Enduro),
Jason is always excited to share his passion for better-living-through-activity as well
as all things 2-wheeled. He is a student of the art and beauty of riding and is always
grateful for the opportunity to share insight and riding experiences with others.
His outlets include BONDtraining, as well as a mountain bike skills coach for RideHub, collaborations with both Cycling BC & Endless Biking providing Strength training to their development teams, and a new collaboration with the North Shore Bike Park with a new HYBRID program that combines the expertise of the MTBdryland with Pumptrack conditioning.
We are proud to be collaborating with Jason as he leads our Gym based performance training programming, as well as an exciting collaboration for 2024 where we will be supporting hisDevelopment Team at the North Shore BMX club.
Jason is passionate about empowering athletes and building strong coach / client
relationships. His strengths include developing quality training programs and creating positive environments that remain individually focused within a group setting, focusing on form and quality of movement.
Jason’s provides individual and small group training programming both in the gym and
on the bike. He also provides “event” preparation coaching and mentorship services — offering a tailored, and focused event training plan that athletes can execute
independently, culminating in a peak level event performance.
We are excited to be working with Jason to develop the ACTIV8TE Performance Training
programming and collaborate in offering a range of fitness and training programs for youth and adults which includes the expansion of the MTBdryland program,
Jason’s training style and coaching philosophy makes him an excellent fit and addition to the ACTIV8TE Coaching.
