My Wellness Journey

Mind. Body. Soul.

Better. Stronger. Healthier. Whole.

“We don't just measure the weight you lose. We care about the weight you've been carrying.”

Javid L. Jenkins, founder of Getting Better Health & Wellness, standing on a sunrise-lit winding path with the Chicago skyline behind him

Our story

Getting Better Fitness was established in 2012 after founder Javid L. Jenkins began his own health transformation in 2010. What began as a commitment to physical fitness developed into a mission to help others improve their strength, confidence, health, and quality of life. Getting Better Health & Wellness expands that mission by recognizing that physical fitness and emotional well-being are interconnected.

Our mission: to help people become better physically, mentally, and emotionally through personalized fitness training, healthy lifestyle education, encouragement, and accountability.
