Meet Mouss and Jon

They first met 10 years ago around sushi and from there they became really close friends, like brothers. One night while sitting around a nice meal, they start to talk about the goals and dreams they have for the future, and found out that they both had the same goal and dream to open their own gym. From then Will Power Gym was born and the rest is history. They first opened their doors on February 20th, 2016.

Jon

Jon has had a passion for bodybuilding starting in the early 1990’s. His first competition was the San Francisco in 2000, when Jon was in his forties. Since that time, he has entered and won his class in many local and national level shows with his best placement at the Master’s Nationals in Pittsburgh in 2016, taking first place with Mouss El Bakkouchi as his prep coach.

Jon has had a long and distinguished career as a senior leader for companies like Microsoft as a general manager in San Francisco Bay Area and Timberline Software (Sage) as VP & General Manager in Portland.

His other passions include flying (Jon holds a private pilot license), remodeling houses, and music. Now in his seventies, Jon loves to share his passion for training, discipline, and inspiring others to live their best life by following a bodybuilding lifestyle to stay young at heart, healthy, and energetic.

Mouss

Born in Morocco, made in France, achieving the dream in the United States.

Mouss was born in Morocco but grew up in France for the first 26 years of his life and has been here in the U.S. for the last 10 years. When he was young, his first love before the gym was martial arts after discovering Bruce Lee and Jackie Chan movies. Mouss was incredibly skinny at the start of his fitness journey with sitting about only at about 115lbs. But being that skinny is what first made Mouss step foot into a gym with the goal to start putting on some size and muscle in order to improve and keep pursuing martial arts. From then on he became the mascot of the gym, all the other lifters would try to help and guide him in the gym in order to help him achieve his goals.
