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.

We have been coming to Passion for Fitness for 19 weeks now. What an incredible place providing top knotch training in a safe and non intimidating environment. The results we have seen have been beyond our expectations. The goals set are now within sight. The trainers are experts in their field. Joe Ransom is not only our trainer, providing accountablity and expertise, but now a friend. This may sound corny..., but our lives have been changed by Passion for Fitness. Jeff and Dayna Leiss

I stumbled onto this place looking for sponsorship for a bike team, signed up for a free honking class and fell in love. I thought I was pretty fit but soon found out I needed more fitness in the form of strength training. My areas were quickly targeted and I am on my way to a better me. The team is responsive and passionate about fitness. At age 49 and feeling good about myself!

I've been lucky enough to have been coming to PFF for over 2 years now. The trainers here have been nothing but excellent. I have a form of Cerebral Palsy called Spastic Diplegia and originally just wanted a way to get more activity in my week but they took the time to know me and my disability. Now i'm walking better, standing taller, and feel better about myself then ever before. I'm so glad I decided to reach out to Joe and his team! I would highly recommend them to anyone! Edit: It's been 4 years now and still going strong. The trainers are fun and genuinely care about getting you where you want to be. Because of my CP I'm focusing on keeping my flexibility and mobility in check and thanks to the trainers here they've kept me engaged and keep coming back every week!

If you are looking for a different kind of trainer, Passion for Fitness is your place. Joe , Tim and staff are unlike any trainers I have ever worked with in the past. What separates them from the rest is mostly their incredible knowledge, observational skills and their individualized approach. The focus is on correct form, preventing injury and moving forward at your own pace. Joe starts with a thorough functional assessment and then devises an individualized plan based on your needs. Honestly, at first it felt slow but as I progressed I began to trust their process ! I initially came to PFF a few weeks before I was having my left knee replaced. I returned after the surgery and months of Physical Therapy but wish I had returned a bit earlier. I honestly think I get a much more individualized, thoughtful treatment regimen from Joe than I did with the PT, which was a fairly "cookie cutter" approach. I have significant amount of weight to lose but have already lost over 20 lbs and feel like I am moving in the right direction again. The staff are enthusiastic, encouraging and nonjudgmental. You sense they want you to do well and are invested in helping you reach your fitness goals and move towards health. You won't be disappointed with PFF !!

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!
