About Jim
Hello! My name is Jim Thompson and I am a trainer here at 10 Fitness in Maumelle Arkansas. I started working at 10 Fitness after meeting their trainer Eric who is a “class act”. I found that I wanted to be around the environment that 10 Fitness had and have been doing what I do for 20 years now.
I grew up in Little Rock and I attended University of Arkansas at Little Rock (UALR) for the Pre-Pharmacy Program. When I am not working at 10 Fitness, you can find me in my “man cave”, spending time with my family and friends, or watching sports on my big screen TV. Personally, I am very passionate about my family and my church. I love working out in my free time and maintaining a healthy lifestyle.
Professionally, I am known for working with seniors and helping them enhance their quality of life. I am most passionate about my clients and enjoy hearing their success stories as we work together. One problem that I am best at solving for my clients is keeping them accountable and motivated to come to the gym.
A few interesting facts about me are that it would be impossible for me to give up my family, my church, and my home. I ranked third in the state in Racquetball in the 1979 Men’s Open Division. I want to be remembered as a good role model for my kids and my grandkids, my favorite quote is, “I’ll be back” from literally any John Wayne movie, and I joined the Airforce in 1970 and became a Medic.
