LIM ZHENG JIE (HE/HIM) 🌈

Personal Trainer, Singapore

Zheng Jie has been sporty since he was young, from smashing spikes on the volleyball court to powering through canoeing and dragon boat races; his early years were all about sport, sweat, and learning what the body can really do. What stuck with him wasn’t just the thrill of competition, but the elegance of good technique — because moving well isn’t just safer, it’s smarter.

His university days introduced him to CrossFit, which taught him the benefits of functional training methods. That path eventually led him to Olympic Weightlifting and bodybuilding — two disciplines that demand intentional movement, finesse, and a deep understanding of nutrition.

Today, Zheng Jie brings all that experience to his coaching. His coaching style is part measurable, part intangible — helping clients get stronger, move better, and actually feel the difference in their daily lives. He’s here for the gains you can see, and the ones you feel: both physically and mentally.

His philosophy: Technique, effort, and results-driven training.

“Workouts with Zheng Jie have been very effective in improving my form and techniques. He frequently pushes me to the limit and helps me improve my training further.”

The training focuses a lot on having proper forms and right muscle activations as well which is good. Despite my heavy travel schedules, training is adjusted and personalised to my lifestyle needs as well. Training is non intimidating with Zheng Jie at Level as well. He helps make challenging workouts doable and sometimes enjoyable. Equipment at LEVEL are well-maintained, clean and just the right space for a cozy workout that’s not too mass. I would highly recommend Zheng Jie and LEVEL.
– Alvin Kok

“Zheng Jie is motivating and always ensures we maintain proper form to avoid injuries.”

I have been attending hybrid classes with Zheng Jie at Level, and the experience has been great. The class sizes are small, which allows for more focused attention and guidance. The workouts are a great mix of strength and cardio. Personally, not a fan of cardio and wouldn’t have pushed myself if not for the class. But like what was mentioned in the session: “When we push ourselves to do something we don’t enjoy, we will improve!” The community here is also very welcoming and supportive.
– Samuel Toh

“Coach Zheng Jie took the effort to tailor personal training sessions according to my fitness level and at an appropriate pace.”

I used to be an avid gym goer but stopped many years ago and the thought of stepping into a gym again felt intimidating. However, my fears proved unfounded when I was taken under the wings of Coach Zheng Jie who took the effort to tailor personal training sessions according to my fitness level and at an appropriate pace. I got my confidence back and look forward to every session! After half a year, I am heartened to see improvements to my flexibility, not only during training but also in my daily life and work (which is mobile in nature).
– Jake Lee

“What I appreciate most about Zheng Jie is his ability to adapt training to my lifestyle and goals, not force a one-size-fits-all program.”

His approach to understanding my specific needs/goals and factoring in my lifestyle to create sustainable plans/habits and results has taught me a lot about both the body and the mind. For anyone considering this I would recommend it, it is a great investment into your well being.”
– Anmol Singh

“I am very happy with the results that I achieved with Zheng Jie and would recommend him to anyone keen to improve his strength and muscle mass.”

I enrolled in this program with Zheng Jie on the advice of my son, who was a classmate of his during their school days. I wanted to improve my strength and flexibility. During the course of my 10 sessions, Zheng Jie would always check with me on how I feel, am I making progress etc etc. By the 5th session, I was feeling my arms gaining definition and could see the results on the golf course! I could also do sit-ups easily which I couldn’t before.
– BonHian Lee

“Overall, it has been an enjoyable training session with ZJ as he is incredibly knowledgeable, always providing helpful tips and encouragement throughout each session.”

Took up PT with Zhengjie (ZJ) in May this year. Primary goal was to improve my form and pick up new exercise techniques. I must say after these 20 sessions, I am now more confident in my deadlifts without the fear of lower backaches; strengthening of my core and squatting heavier. ZJ is detailed in observing your posture, your breathing and pushing you to achieve your goals.
