We all need a personal trainer like him. Javeno McLean is his name. For over 2 decades Javeno has trained clients with a wide range of disabilities. This is done free of charge to the client and it's a policy he won’t change.

He is a powerlifting champion who has realized his dream by establishing J7 Health Center in Manchester, United Kingdom. This is more than just a gym because it’s specifically designed to help individuals with disabilities and the elderly. He gives them with a safe and supportive environment to pursue their fitness goals.

Javeno writes,

“I come from poverty. I understand what it's like to have nothing. My family taught me that when I'm in a position to give without taking, that's what I'm going to do. I'm doing it because I want to help. I want it to be as organic as possible.”

What sets McLean and his gym apart is the profound sense of purpose and love he brings to his work. His approach to fitness and health is revolutionary and he aims to dismantle the intimidation and insecurity often felt in traditional gyms. His focus is on creating a positive and supportive space where exercise becomes a source of joy and empowerment, especially for those who are ill, disabled, or elderly.

The impact of Javeno's work is evident in the faces of his clients, approximately 50 a week, who come to him with various challenges. They range from living with cerebral palsy to recovering from strokes.

Each workout is tailored to the individual, but the ultimate goal transcends physical health, seeking to bring happiness and light into their lives. Javeno's commitment is a testament to the power of kindness and the significant difference one person can make in the lives of other people.

When asked about his motivations, Javeno's response is both simple and profound. He sees his service as a privilege and an honor. It’s driven by a deep desire to do justice to the trust his clients place in him. His story is not about his personal success but a reminder of the power of giving to other people.
