My brother, and my fiance, and I have been training with Joe for the past 4 months. We were looking for a trainer who wouldn’t blindly give us a generic list of exercises, but someone with a good understanding of physiology who could work around some of the back and wrist troubles my fiance was having, who’d be intentional about mobility, and checking for proper form. Joe’s background in biomechanics and excitement about all the particular questions we had was why we ultimately decided to work with him. In the time we’ve been training with Joe, we’ve found that his instructions have been very helpful, giving cues that help with muscle engagement, modifications for accommodate my fiance, coaching on nutrition, and also great encouragement to want to keep improving. Watching all three of us get stronger has been really satisfying. If you’re looking for a personal trainer who really cares about holistic health and someone who respects your goals/needs, we can’t recommend Joe enough! More...

I have been training with Joe for probably ten years now and have loved working with him. His motivation and positivity makes me want to push myself beyond my limits for not only myself but for him. He is not only a great trainer but an amazing mentor. He gives amazing fitness and health advice and genuinely loves what he does. The results I get from seeing him are unbelievable. He truly is an amazing trainer to have and I would recommend everyone to work with him! More...

I started with Joe when I was injured and looking to avoid surgery. Over the last 2 years, Joe has been patient and methodical with my recovery, approaching each workout with care and intention on my road to getting better. Once I cleared the physical limitations, Joe has accelerated the workouts and I'm now in the best shape I've ever been. I'm confident Joe could help me achieve whatever goals I might have - weight loss, injury recovery/prevention, strength training. More...

Training with Joe has become a family affair! To date, 3 of my family members train with Joe. It all started A few years ago when I was concerned by teenage son wasn’t getting enough exercise and my friend highly recommended her trainer Joe. Fast forward three years and my exercise reluctant son happily heads to the gym 2-3 times a week. Joe intrinsically gets my son and has been such a positive influence in his life. About a year ago in preparation for a family wedding I decided to join my son at the gym. I told myself I would train for a month….but I got hooked! I am now going to the gym 3 times a week making this the longest snd most beneficial health kick of my adult life! My college daughter also jumps in on the action when she is in town. Working out with my kids has been so much fun! Joe is such a kind, good and decent man. He is so positive and encouraging. Having a personal trainer is a luxury- but the emotional and physical benefits my family has experienced makes it very clear that time spent with Joe is a good investment. More...

I didn’t know anything about working out, or even general fitness, but Joe and his team are amazing! They offer great personalized sessions for people of all levels, and they helped motivate me to start my fitness and health journey! Joe is encouraging, very knowledgeable, and not intimidating at all. And his main priority is always safety, and proper, unharmful technique, so I know I’m developing good workout habits! More...

Joe is a fantastic trainer, I have been training on and off with him for years. And only off due to my own personal reasons. Joe genuinely cares about his clients and pushes each one to be the best they can be. He regularly pushes me out of my comfort zone so I can achieve the best results for myself. I would reccomend Joe 10x out of 10. If you are looking for a trainer that listens to you and gets results, Joe is definitely your guy! More...

I love having Joey as my trainer because he genuinely cares more about my health and fitness than I do. He works within my boundaries and focuses and correcting issues for results than just pushing me. Joey's personal story of struggling with food and obesity helps him relate to my challenges better than any trainer I've had in the past. Joey provides free trials for you to see for yourself.

Joey is a terrific personal trainer. His workouts are always enjoyable with plenty of variety and they are never boring. He pushes you hard but not to the point of injury. He also helped me develop a dieting strategy and taught me the core concepts of fitness and nutrition. His style is warm and personable and he listens well to your needs. More...

Joe is a fantastic trainer and an even better person. Â He truly loves what he does and tailor's everything to his client's needs. Â Joe pays great attention to what you can and can't do based on experience level and designs workouts so you can progress in your goals quickly and safely. Â Joe also assists with diet advice to anyone seeking that info, yet he strikes a wonderful balance between helpful and not pushy. More...
