    Passion for Fitness is not your average chain fitness studio. They specialize in personal training and small classes. So far I can only review the personal training part of it. It starts slow with assessments according to FMS (Function Movement System). This helps avoid injuries and picking the right exercises for you. Due to the assessments I felt slightly underwhelmed at first. I couldn't wait to get started working out hard. But it got hard really quick after the assessment. They really know how to push you to the max of your current ability without pushing you too hard. Joe, the owner, makes your personal well-being, giving you the right program, avoiding injuries and achieving weight-loss goals his personal mission. On my part, I am looking forward to every session. Overall, I highly recommend checking them out.

    Incredible Support and Real Results I’ve been dealing with ongoing pain and inflammation over the past few months, and finding a place that truly understands what your body is going through can be tough. That’s why I’m so grateful I found Joe’s Passion for Fitness Studio. Joe—and honestly, I now call him Dr. Joe—has been phenomenal. He and his team pay close attention to every ache and movement, customizing workouts and recovery techniques that actually work. Joe doesn’t just train you; he listens, observes, and genuinely cares about helping you feel better and get stronger the right way. Thanks to his support and expertise, I’ve started regaining my strength and confidence. The pain has significantly reduced, and I feel like I’m finally on the path to healing. The entire staff Tim and Julie is welcoming, encouraging, and clearly passionate about what they do. Whether you're recovering from something or just looking to get fit in a smart, sustainable way—this is the place to go.

  • My life and body have changed because of Passion For Fitness. I have never had a consistent workout regimen. I started running and had gotten hurt and could not find any motivation to exercise. I met with Joe Ransom and knew that I found a home. I look forward to every workout because they are all different. My days of physical therapy are over. Joe and his team have helped me to stretch and strenghten my problem areas as well as push me when necessary. I could not imagine working out anywhere else. The environment is private and I love the relationships I have built with all of the trainers.

    I started working with Joe and his team because after trying to work out both with and without personal trainers for many years and not getting much results, I realized that I needed help from someone who really knew what they where doing. This time, it was even more critical than ever before to get good help, because I was recovering from a major surgery. So I decided to give Joe a try with 2 trial sessions. Due to my disability, I have many limitations in mobility and flexibility, but the real problem was that until I met Joe, noboby had the knowledge or experience to really guide me on how to improve those circumstances. From the very first session, Joe carefully observed my motions, and was able to not only explain in great detail why I had certain limitations, but precisely how I could overcome them. For the past 2 months, I have been seeing Joe and his team for 3-5 sessions/week, and I now feel and move better than I ever thought possible. Not only are Joe and his team very knowledgable, and observant, but they truly care. They even help me get in and out of my car on snowy/icy days.

    I couldn't recommend Passion for Fitness enough! Prior to working with Joe and his team, I was having reccuring and painful back issues (my back went out 4 times in 6 months). I have been working with the Passion for Fitness team for 6 months now and have not had a single back incident. It feels really good to have my life back and to be active again.

    Why did I join Passion for Fitness? A couple reasons, first off, the owner Joe is a neighbor of mine in Eagleview and we were talking about what gym I belong too and at the time I had stopped my membership at another gym due to the intensity of the bootcamp and overall program for someone over 50 with knee and low back issues. Joe talked to me for 30 minutes about the back, how it works and how we prone to injury the back is if we don't learn to workout correctly. I joined and saw and felt immediate benefits. Then it happened, I was traveling for work, 8 weeks on the road, three to four days a week at least, not good for the back. I ended up in the ER 2x within a month for 10/10 pain in my low back. I herniated one or two Lumbar discs. Ouch! Joe had me come in two times a week to learn how to help heal the herniation and begin to "load" correctly, understand what was happening to my lower back. With knowledge came power and improvement. This is the first time I could see and feel my back healing. After two weeks, multiple sessions and doing my homework/exercises at home, i can now see myself having a healthy back and getting back to the activities I enjoy in life. I live in Eagleview, if you do, get to Passion For Fitness, its not a "pop-up" fad gym, its not a "cross fit" model that only promotes over use of muscles and can cause injury, but a method of healing and gaining strength, core, and confidence! The staff is engaging, passionate and extremely well knowledgeable on all aspects of being healthy from workouts to nutrition, they have you covered! Phew....I have a new, old back and thrilled!

    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.
