Hammerheart Strength & Conditioning is the best gym in the Pacific NW. Jordan, head coach and owner at Hammerheart, is nearly full Jedi Master. His primary focus on technique and posture has lengthened my stature. Then he incrementally added weight to my workouts and I am the strongest, tallest and most limber I have ever been. I am 48.9 years old. #butwhoscounting. #Hammerheart workout = fun, sweat, power and chill vibe. #get off couch.
Had a great time and a great workout. Definately going again.
Ive been working out with Jordan for a few months and have seen some great improvements in my strength. When I have tried working out on my own at other gyms, I usually mess around on the machines a bit and then leave early, so Ive never reached my goals. Whats nice about Hammerheart is that a coach is telling me what to do and how to do it right. Its also been great working out with a small group of people. Jordan is not only great at giving us workouts, but is also fun to be around.
The best place in Corvallis to work out if youre looking to not only get fit but learn how to do it. Youll be taught the tools on how to work out safely and effectively. These skills are invaluable and Im so lucky to have learned as much as I have from Hammerheart.
Jordan has been knowledgeable and skillful in helping me clarify and plan my exercise goals. He was realistic about where I was in my conditioning journey--taking in aspects of age and past physical problems. Hes compassionate, resourceful, and funny. I highly recommend Jordan for anyone looking for help, hope, and practical exercises to increase your strength, stamina, tone, and balance.
Professional, attentive, Jordan KNOWS his craft. He understands how our bodies work and how to make them strong. He works with you individually to design a program that takes into consideration your ability/sport/situation and then he works to get you to your goals. He works with all levels of abilities and all types of clients. His work over this past year has made my core and back stronger and greatly improved my overall fitness. I wont work with anyone else.
Jordan helped me in every aspect of the workouts, coming from almost no lifting or structured work out experience he is very constructive and focused on proper / safe technique. He would alter normal workouts so that I could hold a straight position or manage weight better. This led to me feeling comfortable and more excited to advance myself. Top notch teacher as well as space, it is homely and had everything one needs for a dynamic work out! Thanks Jordan!
I look forward to my couple hours a week in Jordans Hammerheart Gym. Im an active person and yoga teacher. With age, I felt I needed to supplement my yoga training with strength and functional fitness training. I didnt trust myself to use weights without a trainer. Jordans been great! I feel confident with the weights and I have gained more strength and ease in my body. The hip pain that I had accumulated from too much flexibility training is gone. Yay! I can sit cross legged in meditation for an hour again and stand up without limping. And being pain free and stronger just makes me happier. Thanks Jordan
Jordan is an excellent coach. He is thorough in his approach and the one on one or small group setting employed is a huge plus. Would highly recommend him to anyone whether your just getting into weight training as a sport or to improve their game in other arenas.
This is by far the best fitness experience I have ever had. I have never enjoyed weight lifting or strength training - I was always a cardio junkie, never wanting to do things slowly. But training with Jordan at Hammerheart has completely changed my mindset. He is a fun person to hang out with, he makes you laugh, he keeps it real, and he pays attention to what youre doing in a way that shows he cares about the integrity of your workout (and that he doesnt want you to get hurt). Hes also great at switching up the routine every time you go to class, so you never feel like youre just repeating the same exercises every week. Hes got backups upon backups, and tons of alterations in case a specific movement isnt working for you (in my case, my knee bothers me a lot, so he modifies what I am doing in order to protect me from injury, but he never lets me get away with not working out that leg). And one more thing I love about Hammerheart is the location - its private. The windows all face the parking lot, but his gym is at the end of a long building, so no one is walking past on their way to somewhere else, peering in at you while youre red in the face. And if someone does walk past the window, its probably because they are coming in to sweat with you.
Jordan is a great trainer. He spends time making sure you are getting the most impact out of the training. Highly recommend him for anyone wanting to really learn how to do things the best way for your body.
The classes are accessible for all levels and there is an awesome variation of functional movements and exercises. You learn so much with each class.
Hammerheart is an excellent little gym. Its got every piece of equipment I could possibly need, and is somehow both spacious and cozy.Jordan is professional, accommodating, and knowledgeable, taking an evidence-based, scientific approach to training - a welcome departure from the pseudo- and bro-sciences that seem so pervasive in the fitness world. I have seen him train everyone from beginners to ultra marathon runners (and olympic lifters!) without ever being judgmental or condescending. If you are considering hiring a personal trainer, I could not recommend Jordan enough. Plus, he has a cute dog.
Hammerheat is an awesome place to workout. Jordan is a very friendly and attentive coach. He is also very knowledgeable and I just love the setup of this place.
