  • Started January of 2012 working out with the trainers at Passion For Fitness to work on muscle imbalances and improve my all over fitness. As an avid runner, I had cardiovascular endurance but needed some help with strengthening and ...

    I started working with Joe Ranson and his team after injuring myself running on my own. The PFF Team do an excellent job not only getting you in shape SAFELY, but also motivating you to excel and be accountable for the work or lack or work you put in. That focus has helped me stay consistent in my workouts, has gotten my activity level to new highs, and my diet back on track. I feel better and look better thanks to Joe Ranson and his team. I highly recommend that you stop in a for visit and try for yourself!

    Joe and his team helped me to lose 20 pounds in the first two months with a balance of exercise and nutritional advice. Focus is on preventing injuries and correcting issues caused by sitting at a desk too much. I feel great and look forward to each session! Safe and effective way to jumpstart healthy living! Highly recommend!

  • 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.

  • 5 stars are not enough...Joe and his staff really know their stuff! I've been training with Joe for over a year now. He has helped me learn to train safely to prevent injury, gain strength, improve mobility, and stay flexible. My main goal is to be able to play with my grandkids (which I now can do!) and stay fit into my later years. I'm confident in the team at Passion for Fitness and would recommend them to anyone!

    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!
