Testimonials

I would highly recommend Joe to anyone….

I’ve been using Joe as a personal trainer for a few weeks now, with a goal to gain muscle mass. One thing I noticed right away about Joe’s style is that he is very organized and prepared for each session. He is a great listener, which is important because every client presents with different goals that they want to achieve. He is very diligent about designing an appropriate workout each week that works my muscles to exhaustion in a way that is balanced. He pays close attention to form and capacity/load as he coaches you through each exercise set. By the end of each session I feel like my muscles have received a thorough workout. As a medical professional, I was also taken by his knowledge about the anatomy of the body, and how each muscle comes into play with each exercise he has scripted. In addition, I’m also on a specific protein/carb/fat intake plan, calculated by Joe that will give me the amount of calories I need to bulk-up and grow muscle tissue effectively. For me, Joe was the intelligent choice to make when I decided to look into hiring a personal trainer after working out on my own for 15 years. I am a very satisfied client and would highly recommend Joe to anyone who is serious about their fitness goals.

I feel healthier than I have in 20 years!

I have gone from size 16 to size 8 and weigh less than I did 35 years ago! I had so much hip, knee and back pain that I had trouble sleeping. Now I am pain-free and feel healthier than I have in 20 years!

My favorite thing about Joe is that he truly listens.

I started working with Joe about four months after I had my baby girl last year. While I had lost most of my baby weight, I wasn’t back in pre-baby shape and was looking for some useful tips. My favorite thing about Joe is that he truly listens. He listed to where I wanted to change my body, how I wanted to improve my fitness level, and how much time I had as a new mom to devote to working out. Another very beneficial aspect of Joe is that he tailors not just a workout plan, but a holistic fitness plan that includes physical fitness, mental/emotional wellness, and personalized nutritional goals. Following Joe’s advice, I began to see my desired results immediately, which was very exciting. I think it is inevitable to encounter challenges along the way but Joe was always there for me – offering motivation, encouragement, and support. I have been working out for a number of years but what I learned from Joe gave me a whole new perspective on being active and living a healthy life. I honestly believe that working with Joe is one of the best investments in yourself that you can make, and I highly recommend him to the person who is just beginning to workout, or the person who would like to take their current fitness to the next level.

Thanks to Joe!

Joe distinguishes between fitness level and athletic pursuit, but easily offers appropriate guidance for every fitness level or the serious athlete. I asked Joe to help me bring more structure to my actual lifestyle so that I could more regularly enjoy biking, kayaking, swimming, hiking, and snowboarding throughout the year. The challenge I faced was an unpredictable travel schedule for work and the goal I wanted was to create a weight training schedule. Thanks to Joe, I know exactly what cardiovascular and strength conditioning exercises to do when I travel. I also have a focused weight training routine for when I have gym access. Coworkers, family, and friends are complimentary of the results, and I’m happy to feel healthy, fit, and active.

I have been training with Deb since October of last year. She has helped me to achieve my weight loss and fitness goals. She tailors the workout to be the most beneficial to your abilities and goals.

Deb is an excellent trainer!

Deb is an excellent trainer! Our workouts are fun, challenging, and she encourages me to make progress without giving me more than I can handle. Deb has been able to accommodate my injury prone shoulder while training my upper body and tailors my workouts to my specific needs.

I would not be the woman I am today…

Pam Hopkins and the entire family at FORM have been a consistent source of inspiration and support to me on my weight loss journey. I have learned from Pam that weight loss and health is a journey and a life style; not a magic pill or a miracle cure. She has taught me to be patient and love myself. Through her amazing workouts and the wonderful environment of FORM my life has been changed for the better. I have been working with Pam for the last 4 years and I would not be the woman I am today without her. I have not only gained my health and life back, but a life time friend as well—and that is priceless. Thank you to Pam and the family at FORM!

—Taylor G., college student and avid outdoors woman
