I started working out with John in April of 2023 and it is truly an amazing experience to be pushed to work hard every session. His dedication for what he does is expressed and I feel like a new person every time I leave. I have hit new goals continuously and always feel challenged!

Confession: I haven’t been to this club.BUT: I’ve relied on John Pivovar for my changing fitness needs on and off for the past 18 years. If a trainer isn’t the best there is, you don’t trust them with your body for almost two decades. He’s the real deal. I believe in him so much I’ve recommended him to multiple friends and gave a John Pivovar package of workouts to my husband for Xmas last year.Why, you ask? For me, John has:- Challenged my body appropriate like as I evolved through post-pregnancy, regular fitness, maybe-fitness-shows, life’s ups and downs, injuries, you name it. He adjusted workouts and his approach to every stage- Treated me with respect…but pushed when necessary!- Always, always had a sense of humor. He makes me laugh when I’m at the top of my game, and he makes me laugh when I’m limping around and failing at most tasksI’m on the west coast now or I’d still be working with John. You lucky people still have the opportunity! Don’t miss it

I’ve been working with John since 2019 and highly recommend him! Our sessions are typically an hour and consist of a variety of strength, cardio, and stretching/flexibility exercises. I’ll happily report that every single workout has been great. John can sense how I am managing thru the workouts in order to push me as necessary (or pull back if I’m overly challenging myself). I’m able to apply what I learn with John on my own when not working with him… yet always look forward to the next session!

I went to a few of the boot camps that have been offered thus far and they’ve been great. Have never been challenged so much in my life but the classes are set up to accommodate each attendee’s individual fitness level; letting you go at your own pace while also learning new techniques and routines. John & Mike check on every participant throughout the duration of the workout for the purpose of motivating & encouraging them & ensuring that they are utilizing correct form. I certainly look forward to seeing what else this gym has in store.

I have trained with John P. for 5+ years. Taking classes in person and online spanning everything from HIIT, Tabata, Spin, circuit training, yoga and others that he created, etc. His classes are great! He works with people individually and as a group keeping everyone motivated and challenged regardless of fitness or experience level. He’s very experienced and passionate about making sure you meet your goals whatever they may be. I highly recommend training with John P!

John Pivovar is a veteran personal trainer who will help you achieve your fitness goals. My whole life I have tried to reach my ideal weight and fitness. It wasnt until I worked with John when I was able to get in the best shape of my life. His workouts are the right intensity and guaranteed to make you sweat. He focuses on the right balance of muscles in his workouts and gives a unique experience that you won’t find with other trainers. If you follow John’s workout regimen and health advice, you will definitely reach your fitness goals. I highly recommend him!

Great place, I was very comfortable working with John and his team! They quickly assessed where I was at with my fitness level and tailored the program to my needs while making me feel part of the team. I am finally excited about working out.
