    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.

    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!

  • 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 am in my 60’s, and realized that I needed help getting back in shape. The combination of my age, lack of exercise and my numerous health issues caused me to lose muscle mass. I searched online for a personal trainer, and I was fortunate to find Joe Ransom with “Passion for Fitness”. I see Joe for fitness training sessions in his main studio located in the charming community of Eagleview Town Center in Exton, as well as his convenient studio located in the heart of Phoenixville. Joe has been wonderful, and his guidance and expertise is exactly what I needed. He works with clients of all ages and levels of fitness, and he is able to adjust my training and exercises to zero in on what works best for me. His energy and positive motivation instantly put me at ease. I was impressed with his skill and expertise - not only with what exercises I need to get back in shape, but also how to overcome the challenges I face getting to that point. I continue to look forward to my sessions. Joe is very knowledgeable, and I like the personal attention I receive from him rather than at a large, crowded and noisy gym. I am amazed at how much better I feel, and I only wish that I had reached out to Joe and his staff sooner.

  • I had been inactive for a really long time before I came to Joe and felt pretty bad most of the time. After losing 25 lbs. in last 2 months I feel so much better and I am finally getting healthy. It has become about so much more than losing ...

    I feel so fortunate to have connected with Joe and the PFF Team! They are fun to train with and have taught me to truly enjoy working out. I feel myself getting stronger with each session and notice a significant improvement in my overall mood and ability to manage daily stressors. Through strength training, I have improved my balance and posture and have increased my performance in daily activities. I have also lost a significant amount of weight. Joe, Josh, Beth & Ryan have all been my biggest cheerleaders and never let me get discouraged. They have celebrated each one of my achievements and continue to inspire and keep me motivated to improve my health and performance. They have also made themselves available any time I had a question or concern. Prior attempts at working out were inconsistent due to pain and muscle spasms. This has not been my experience working with the PFF team, as they make sure that I am prepared for each exercise and I am able to make consistent gains. I have personal goals that I know I can reach with the continued coaching and guidance of Passion for Fitness. Thank you Joe, Josh, Beth & Ryan!

    Joe is an absolutely fantastic trainer and coach who can help any individual trying to lose weight, and gain strength. After years of trying and struggling with my teen who had put on a lot of weight and not being enthusiastic about training or being active, he was able to get to her and get her buy-in on eating healthy and staying active. For the first time in her teen years she is excited for the prospect and future of becoming healthy, active, and dare I say authentic and strong 💪 Joe and his trainers at both locations care about their clients individually and if you or someone you know are struggling with eating healthy and losing weight / exercising and keeping that motivation and energy going, then Joe and his team are going to be up to the task for anyone any age. Trust the process that Joe sets for you, follow the playbook and you will get there ! Two thumbs up, way up!
