No gimmicks, no potions: just plain and simple hard work that will show you results. Joe Ransom has an excellent team of trainers that will help you reach your goals. Their formula is simple: Core Strength training, Cardo and a proper diet all lead up to a healthy new you! Remember - this isn't a gym, this is a personal fitness training studio. It's not for everyone, only those that want to get serious results in a timely fashion. I'm glad I have it a try, it worked for me.

I found Passion For Fitness right after graduating from Gettysburg College with a degree in Health Sciences. I joined the team as a trainer and have learned a great deal to add to my education. The team at Passion For Fitness do a great job of meeting the individual needs of each client. It is a great community to be a part of, and the health and fitness benefits are unmatched! I am happy to be a part of the team.

Deciding that I needed to work with a personal trainer was one of the most important decisions I have made in last few years. Because of medical issues, I gained almost 100 lbs and at 69 years old, it seemed impossible for me to lose it even though I tried many programs and plans in the last 10 years. When I did a on-line search in February 2021, Bark opened up and I was able to check out several trainers, one of which was Passion for Fitness. Within a few minutes of putting in my information, I was contacted by Joe Ransom. It was only then I realized that he was on the East Coast and I was on the West coast, but because PFF was doing virtual training, it might work. Talking with Joe was so motivating and he laid out such a cohesive plan for me, that I knew it was a good fit. Since that time I have worked with several members of the PFF team and I have been amazed at the consistency they show. I have enjoyed working with each one of them. Since beginning my training, I have lost 20 lbs. and am feeling so much stronger and healthier. My diet has been a big issue for me and Joe definitely knows how to hold me accountable and yet motivate me at the same time. Joe has had training in the issues older people have to deal with, such as lower back pain, and he has been able to integrate the right exercises to help alleviate the pain that my doctors have been unable to do. I work out 2x each week for 30 minutes with one of the trainers over ZOOM and have access to Joe when there are questions or concerns with my routine or diet. Joe and the rest of the staff take my health very seriously and work hard to help me do the same. Thank you, Joe, Beth, Ryan, Josh, & Amanda for all of your hard work.

After a two year hiatus, I am back to personal training and I am thrilled that I found Passion for Fitness! What makes Joe and his team stand out from my other personal training experiences is the focus on proper form and body alignment first before adding any weight. I thought the pain I experienced in my lower back was a normal part of lifting heavy weights. In working with Joe and team, I realized I’m using my back incorrectly and my form needs to improve. Because of this “form first” approach, I’m happy to say that I don’t feel back pain after a workout!

Joe is a thorough professional, very knowledgeable about the science of physical fitness, and absolutely the best trainer. He knows how to push you, and how to encourage you. I am glad that I found him, and I have benefitted greatly from his training. I would strongly recommend him to anyone who wants to make sure that they are doing the right type of exercise the correct way to achieve the results they are looking for.

Great experience. Very personal attention to ensure your form is correct, which is especially important as we get older !!! Great staff, knowledgeable, friendly and professional.
