Why I’m here
There are tons of personal trainers out there, its an incredibly saturated market and a low risk business to get into. All I have at stake is my name, which I value very highly. So this page will be to answer a few of your questions and tell you a bit about me.
My real name is Grayson, I’ve used Jaeger as an online name for over 10 years now, I’m 21 years old, I was homeschooled for 7 years, then I was in military school, then public school, then graduated during the pandemic. My life transition into the education system was strange, my parents were separating, I didn’t know how to make friends, I didn’t know how to learn in a classroom environment, I literally didn’t know how to try.
I was raised with the expectation of being a “gifted kid”, so I was rewarded for what I was rather than what I strived for. Success was expected and failure was intolerable. That instilled a twisted perfectionism where I was so afraid of failure that I wouldn’t even try. I was so used to just always being smart enough to never have to study that I “couldn’t” bring myself to sit down and study. Throughout school then the pandemic I sunk deeper and deeper into depression. I was very nihilistic and spent ages 13-18 “not wanting to exist”. During that time I felt unable to take care of myself. I didn’t know how to cook, I didn’t know it was necessary to exercise, and all in all I didn’t feel like I had control of my mind, so a month before I turned 19 I set the goal to take control of my body so that I could control my mind.
I don’t believe you can think your way out of depression, it has to come from actions. I believe that accomplishing things that make you proud of yourself is what brings joy. At 19 I set out the goal to just initially gain weight and get stronger with calisthenics, 6 months before I turned 20 I started weightlifting. I went from 6’2 120lbs to 155lbs that year.
In that time, my then new stepbrothers introduced me to MMA, I had never enjoyed watching sports growing up but I saw this as the ultimate expression of self and skill. Absolute accountability. One on one, no one else to blame, no one at fault but you, any mistake could be your last mistake. I absolutely loved it, not for the sake of violence but for the sake of the art expressed between two fighters. I started training as soon as I could.
So for 2024 my goals were to improve my social skills, create better relationships, compete in Brazilian Jiu Jitsu twice, the first would be to get my feet wet and the second would be more serious (ended up happening the other way around, 2nd competition I got SHIT ON!) And I completed all of those goals. And through that 2024 was the best year of my life so far. I’m the happiest I’ve ever been because I really put my foot on the gas.
So what’s next? I want to be entirely self owned. I want to train full time and not have to sell my time for the benefit of a corporation. With this business I sell my time for the benefit of myself and the benefit of you. At the price point I have set I only need 5 clients to not need a job for income, and 20 clients would be lifechanging income, all while teaching people at a scale smaller than a high school classroom. Meaning you are getting high quality undivided attention at appointed times. I have the knowledge and resources to teach you everything you need to know to achieve your fitness goals.
I don’t plan on scaling my personal training, I’m doing this because it aligns with the passions and skills that I have. From here I’ll be branching into nootropics and clothing, as well as investing in real estate to build passive income. I’m not in this industry to exploit people. I really want my people to succeed, your wins are your wins that I get to take pride in too. I believe everyone has something they’re meant to achieve in their life and I may not know what that is for everyone but I believe I can get people several steps closer to becoming the version of themselves that will achieve it and I think thats beautiful work that I can take pride in.
So that’s me, that’s my motive, no chatGPT, no filter, no upselling, no discretion. 31 days of training with me and you’ll be set down a lifetime path of better health.
