I’ve tried on my own to get in shape over the years without much success. I would go to the gym day after day, week after week. I would always lose motivation, get bored, or end up injuring myself. It was very frustrating to figure out what I should do and how to exercise properly. There is just too much information out there to try and figure it all out! I started working out at Fitness Together on East Paris in October 2015. I was immediately impressed with the facility, the program, and the people. Everyone from the owner, to the manager, to the trainers make it feel like it is their mission to help you achieve your fitness goals! Before I started I worried that I had to get in better shape before starting to work out. I was just getting over a lower back injury and wasn’t sure what I could even do. Jesse designed a program for me that took my current physical abilities into consideration. He emphasized the importance of proper form in order to prevent injuries and maximize my results. The program is constantly evolving as my body adapts. It is always varied and progressively more challenging. I definitely do not get bored! I love that I have the individual attention of an expert every time I work out at Fitness Together. I am three months into my workouts and could not be any happier with my experience at Fitness Together. I have added muscle, gotten stronger, lost more than two inches off of my waist and lost 15 pounds and I am just getting started! I am so glad that I decided to invest in myself with Fitness Together. It has been worth every penny! I could not have done this on my own!

Its been almost 4 yrs since I became a FT client. Id always been fairly active & physical but, as for many, over time it had become easier and easier to find excuses not to be more committed to getting and staying fit. My sister (also a client) knew the owner and, with their "gentle" prodding, I finally caved. It was unlike anything Id ever done before but exactly what I needed - a personal trainer! No excuses, commitment, determination - YOU CAN DO THIS!!!! I heard (hear?) more than I can count. And I could, and I did, and I will continue to do. I am stronger now @ 60 than I was @ 30 (and I ran 30 mi/wk back then!) As a woman, Im doing the best thing I can do for my aging bones and joints, not to mention the positive effect mentally & emotionally (those endorphins really do get happy). I even run a little now (not much) but something I never thought Id do again. The entire staff is wonderful. Its a very personal environment. Love, love, love FT!

I signed up for one, 6 month package, almost 4 years ago. The trainers helped me achieve my goals within that time. I have stayed with Fitness Together in the several years since then, because I have found their help in maintenance and motivation to be nothing short of profound. They are kind yet tough, demanding yet understanding. The owner is involved as well, and knows everyone by name. What has been particularly special to me, has been the encouragement that I have received outside of my sessions. The trainers make sure that I do cardio outside of FT several times a week and hold me accountable. They are supportive and watchful of my diet outside of FT as well. I would encourage anyone to give this a try, whether your goals are lofty or small.

My brother who has been a member for 3 years bought me 4 sessions to try it out for a Christmas gift. I enjoyed everything about those sessions so I signed up. It has been almost a year and I have seen such a major improvement in my strength, endurance and overall fitness. The trainers really help you understand how to properly do the exercises for maximum effectiveness and the fitness tests every 6 weeks ensure that your program never gets stale and that your routines are always focused on your fitness goal. It is worth the investment in your health and I would recommend signing to anyone looking for a program that is designed for your specific needs and actually helps you achieve your goals!

I appreciate the flexibility that Fitness Together can provide because of the multiple locations, I typically workout at their downtown location but there are those times when I need to have the ability to workout at the East Paris location and I dont miss a beat with my workouts!! The staff communicates between each other to make sure that Im taken care of and I would like to send a shout out to Ally, she takes my routine and finds a way to create a fresh challenge that pushes me and her energy is contagious!! I want to be fair to the entire staff as they have all been great!! I have even referred my daughter to utilize Fitness Together!! thank you for helping me strive towards my goals

I cant say enough good things about this place! Ive been working out with Molly since October and I have never felt stronger. I see her twice a week for strength training and some cardio. The workouts are challenging but always fun! As someone who suffers from chronic back pain it was important for me to find a trainer that is able to tweak my workouts according to my pain level yet qualified enough to challenge me regardless of my limitations. Molly is all of this and more! I have also had the opportunity to work out with Sam and Josh who are equally awesome and I have seen Jesse in action. You will NOT be disappointed with any of the trainers here. I highly recommend Fitness Together.

I’ve been working out at Fitness Together for about a year. The results have been great, and I never want to miss a session. I have been working with Jesse as my trainer. The work outs have been outstanding, we set goals and work hard to achieve them. I’m 54, and I’m in the best shape I’ve been in 20 years. Jesse and all the trainers are very knowledge about your total health. Great form and technique are stressed; I’ve never been injured with any of the strenuous workouts. Jesse keeps every session informative and fresh. It doesn’t matter what your physical condition, Fitness Together is a great investment in yourself. The staff is outstanding and well worth the cost.

Ive been training with Jo for a few months now and have absolutely loved Fitness Together! The private rooms offer a more comfortable setting than your typical gym. They have a variety of equipment which allows you to switch things up and keep from getting bored with the same old routine. Everything is always clean (seriously they are always cleaning in there) which is reassuring :) Jo is always upbeat while at the same time laid back - she creates a welcoming environment where I can push myself without feeling judged. She helps to motivate you while always prioritizing safety. I highly recommend this place, and specifically to train with Jo!

There is a real sense of community at this gym. It is not a large facility, so you get to know the owner and the trainers quickly. They all have a great rapport with the clients. The clients interact wonderfully together and friendships are formed. It is a very welcoming, caring environment. Your goals are important to your trainer. They feel a great sense of success when you succeed. They will be there for you when you are not succeeding as well. My trainer, Ally, is encouraging and enthusiastic. If you are looking to improve your health - or change your life - I can recommend Fitness Together East Paris.
