welcome to LXV Fitness
a part of LXV home plus, LLC.
My name is James Bayles and I am the founder and owner of LXV Home Plus LLC. I am a Certified Personal Trainer, specializing in Functional Aging and Senior Fitness.
My senior fitness journey began when I graduated in 2007 with a degree as a Physical Therapist Assistant. I worked in a multitude of settings over the years, from acute to outpatient. I spent most of the last decade in geriatric and orthopedic settings, working with patients to get them back into their homes safely and as soon as possible. I truly enjoy helping seniors achieve their goals.
While providing these therapy services in skilled nursing homes, I noticed a need for preventative and continued fitness intervention. Many times, a patient or their family member would ask me if I could keep exercising with them after they were discharged. They wanted to stay strong but didn’t know how to do that once they went home. Without continued strength training and exercise, many would become inactive and weak. This would sometimes result in another injury or fall, leading them back into medical care.
breaking the cycle.
This is why I started LXV Home Plus. Beginning with LXV Fitness, we can provide personal training for the aging adult right in the comfort of their own home. By keeping our aging population strong and independent, we can help prevent and break the cycle of repeated injuries and medical care.
Whether you’re looking to increase your strength and balance, improve your quality of life, reduce pain and stress, expand your social interactions or simply have a more active and healthier lifestyle, I have the experience to help you achieve your goals.
Let’s get moving, together.
