Gain Muscle Building Programs

  Lucas is the best trainer I have worked with...hands down! He is patient and explains the routine he puts you on so you fully understand the exercise and how... read more to do it correctly. Lucas has always been flexible w my crazy work schedule too which I appreciate it. The gym itself is awesome! He designed it so it's decked out in all the newest and best equipment. I have seen great results since starting w Lucas again almost a year ago. He pushes you, motivates you and gets you in shape the healthy way. Highly recommend!!

  I've been working out with Lucas for a little over a year now. Lucas is very attentive to what each client needs, what my limits are, and knows just how... read more to push me. He makes working out fun (well as fun as sweating buckets can be), and makes me want to set new goals. Time with Lucas has been worth it as an investment in my health. Completely recommend him

  Lucas has helped me get so much stronger than I thought I could ever be! The biggest transformation was mental - I now think of my sessions with Lucas as... read more therapy!

  Mr. Lucas James was instrumental in helping me look and feel great for my wedding.


Not only did he recommend and push my workouts, he didn't... read more hold back on emphasizing the significance of a clean diet. Additionally, his dietician named Mary was great in trying to keep me compliant (which was a challenge from my perspective lol)


Long story short, I am very happy with his team, and would recommend anyone to trust his words of executive personal training and wisdom.

  LJ is a premiere trainer in Scottsdale, Arizona. I met Lucas a few years ago and I've seen him train others as I would workout. I decided to take him... read more on and I am so glad I did. I thought I knew how to lead a healthy lifestyle but I was doing multiple things wrong from what I was eating to workout form to a variety of exercises I didn't even know existed. Lucas made it fun for me and I began enjoying workouts again. He changes it up on each session, this was the plan I voted for after an extensive and focused consultation that took about an hour. 5 star trainer! Thank you Lucas for all the attention you have me and for making me stronger both physically and mentally. I truly appreciate you! Bryan

  Lucas James is unequivocally the best Scottsdale personal trainer out there. He, his training team and his Registered Dietitians will take a comprehensive approach to getting you in the best... read more shape of your life.

Lucas is extremely professional. He's flexible with his training schedule and will do anything he can to accommodate his clients.

His programs are tailored to your fitness goals whether that be Olympic weightlifting or simply longevity training.

I'm extraordinarily pleased that I found Lucas as my trainer. Top notch trainer.

  Lucas James works with a range of clients. He helped me get from mediocre to athletic and from a from generic body to well sculpted. His direction, support, and encouragement... read more helped me get on the path and stay on it. Each month brought results beyond what I could have expected and well beyond what I could have done on my own. Totally worth it.

  Working with personal trainer Lucas James from Scottsdale, Arizona has been two words: Life Changing. I've played sports my entire life and thought I was in pretty good shape and... read more good health. After seeing that my blood pressure and cholesterol levels were pretty high, I wanted to do something about it. And like most guys, I was also looking to add more lean muscle to my 6'2" - 160 lbs frame.

When I met with Lucas to discuss my goals, I never felt pressured or insecure. His friendly personality let me know that I could trust him with my health. After he monitored my workouts and charted my typical meals and daily activities, he not only put together a workout plan for me, but it was a PERSONAL and UNIQUE lifestyle program. This included and in depth 18-page report full of foods I could eat, example meals for the day, workout routines, and "food goals" I needed to hit to transform my body. Also, he didn't just give me this report and send me on my way. I got emails, text messages, and phone calls from him to check-in and make sure I was on track. He would give me motivational coaching that I needed to stay focused.

It wasn't easy, but the most rewarding things in life are also the most challenging. I'm about 14 months into the dedicated lifestyle change and I'm at the happiest I've ever been. I'm now 185 lbs, and about 11% body fat. My chest has grown 3-4" and my biceps have grown 3". I look good, feel even better, and constantly get compliments on my physique.

I recommend Lucas James to anyone that wants a COMPLETE and HEALTHY lifestyle change. This isn't crash diets, or quick fixes... it's something you earn and something you can be proud of. You not only get a body makeover, you get a brain transformation and an invigorating approach to life!

  Lucas truly invests the time and creativity to formulate a diet and fitness program that meets one's needs. I highly recommend Lucas to anyone that wants a rigorous and exciting... read more program to keep them engaged on a daily basis.

  I have referred Lucas James Celebrity Personal Trainer to many clients in Scottsdale Az, he is amazingly professional and gets the best weight loss results hands down. Lucas James is... read more very expensive but worth every penny to achieve your fitness and nutritional goals. I personally have completely rebuilt my physique with Lucas James and look forward to our sessions!

  I've been working out with Lucas since I moved to Scottsdale about 1.5 years ago.

Lucas is the first true personal trainer I've worked with, but I have had... read more multiple gym memberships at various places, some of which allowed me to sign up for one-off 1:1 training sessions. Unfortunately, none of those gym memberships or 1:1 training sessions worked for me.

The difference between my prior memberships and Lucas is the accountability factor and the added bonus of having a registered dietitian helping from a nutrition standpoint. No one at 24 Hour Fitness is holding you accountable to show up everyday, and no one at Orangetheory is delivering a workout that is tailored to your specific goals.

Lucas has been great about adjusting workouts based on my personal objectives, and his dietitian has been equally great with consistent recommendations specifically for me.

Above all: Lucas switches it up so it's not boring and mundane, he's fun and personable, and he's flexible with my crazy busy work and travel schedule. I'd recommend him to anyone looking to get fit. If you put in the work, you will see results!

  Where to start!

I've always been a very active and health conscious individual who believes in honoring our bodies through working out, and fueling with all the right... read more food. Before I met Lucas and Alyssa I was dedicated to spinning and lifting heavy weights. The heavy weight lifting made my body bulky and I believe doing spin for so long my body plateaued. I listened to my body and knew it wasn't a matter of my dedication but this approach wasn't working for my body.
Everyone's different!
Listen to your body.

I started with Alyssa with a goal of long, lean and toned. I weighed in at 165 and am now 145 which I reached over a 5 month period. I have maintained this number for a long time now.

If your craving the cookie? Eat the cookie. Listen to your body. If your dedicated in the gym you can still have fun and see results.

key word: balance. (Alyssa will be the first to tell you this).

Back to my girl
She switches it up all the time so your body doesn't plateau. Lifting lighter weights with cardio blasts in between sets. Quick spurts of heart rate up high ^ then back down for lifting has really worked for me. She always has me doing something new. She's motivating in a kind way and keeps you moving. I don't do well with a yelling or too aggressive approach because to me it's really a celebration of the body we have, to challenge it and to see how mentally and physically strong we are. My goals will be different then yours and she will customize everything to your needs. The session is one hour long which I LOVE because 45 minutes has felt rushed with past trainers.

I'm not trying to be a body builder or be into this big juicy booty trend...

just tight + toned + healthy
I'm there and am proud to have Lucas (best mentor around) + Alyssa be a big part of this journey.

Love to both of you.
