I have worked with several other fitness trainers over the past several years and Josh is by far the best! In a year he has transformed my health and physique and I can honestly say that I am stronger and fitter at 35 than I have ever been. He is motivating, full of optimism and extremely driven. He knows just how and when to encourage and when to push, though never too much. Josh is also realistic about fitness/health goals, and how they fit into your full professional/personal life. His professionalism, extensive knowledge and enthusiastic commitment to his work and ultimately his clients, provides the perfect scenario for success and sets foundations for a new healthier lifestyle. I can honestly say I look forward to every workout with Josh and that he has been a huge game changer in my fitness – and life!
Testimonials
I fall short of words when I have to review Josh.
I came to Josh for contest prep for Mens Physique, totally unhappy with the way I looked and with the way my previous coach was prepping me.
Josh took me on, understood my lifestyle, catered diet and workouts totally around my routine and what would work the best.
Needless to say, Josh explains, makes sure answers all your doubts and EXPLAINS THE SCIENCE behind what he is asking you to do and also lays the foundation down for a strong outcome.
Josh will answer your texts/calls and is always available for you.
I am a rejuvenated person, happier with my moods, a 100% looking 100 times better than before.
One thing that is special about Josh is that he treats his clients like family.
One can easily tell how passionate Josh is about what he does.
All in all, along with a trainer and a coach, I found a brother who not only helped me in fitness, but overall set an example of being a better human everyday!
Josh will help you achieve your goals!

First of all, if you’re not sold on the already amazing reviews josh has been given, let me add to the list. Josh brown has been coaching me for 2 months now and I came to him to build strength and put on some lean mass. In only 2 months I am already up 12lbs of lean muscle tissue, and my lifts have gone up tremendously. Josh’s plan that he custom made for me is simple to understand and perform for someone who has never been on a meal plan/workout plan and extremely effective. If I could give him 6 stars I would. I highly recommend this extremely knowledgeable, professional, and overall phenomenal coach to anyone looking to improve their lifestyle!

As someone who was struggling to make progress in my overall health and in the gym, I reached out to Josh Brown for coaching a few months ago. Since then I have seen a drastic improvement in my overall physique, gym progress and health in my daily life. Josh is always there when I have questions with my meal prep or if I’m not certain if I’m doing an exercise to my best capability. I would highly recommend Josh as a coach if you are trying to improve your health and well being because he is punctual, takes his job very serious, and cares about the progress that you make. 10/10 coaching and mentoring coming from this man as he is always doing the most to make you better.
My 16 year son has been training with Josh for over two years. Josh has taught him proper lifting technique and encouraged him to push himself but in a safe manner. Josh went above and beyond the call of duty in 2020, holding virtual workout sessions when they could not meet at the gym. As a parent, I really appreciate how much Josh believes in my son and supports him both physically and emotionally.
Working with josh has been one of the most challenging and rewarding things I’ve done. The training is hard, the diet even harder. I can say for sure that I am a far better athlete because of it. From strength to aesthetics I’ve become the bodybuilder I have always dreamed of becoming. Each week I progress more and more and we’ve still got a long ways to go!
I highly recommend grabbing Josh as a coach/trainer. He has helped me accomplish in the last 4 month what I have been trying to do in the last 20 years. His guidance and knowledge is unparalleled. He is always giving me the support and the push I need to succeed!!
10 Weeks of Dieting Progress between these photos.
From the beginning Josh has shown extreme dedication to catering his experience to my body type and schedule. Adjusting meals and workouts to my body has made a tremendous difference and has forced extreme results in a short amount of time. He has made this whole experience fun and exciting. I can’t wait to continue on with my lean bulking after this cut process. Josh and I have also been working 100% remote online. I highly recommend his services.

I have been training with Josh for 5 years. He is very knowledgeable about weightlifting, nutrition and body composition. Josh works with you to develop a program that is tailored to fit your goals. He is able to work around any injury you may have and ensures that you maintain good form throughout the workout. Josh will encourage you to push your limits but will make certain you don’t harm yourself by over doing it.
Since training with Josh I have seen him with other clients, from teens to seniors. He cares about all his clients and celebrates their progress as if it was his own. Josh is a great trainer, friendly and keeps the workouts fun and enjoyable while helping to meet our goals.
Josh trained me for 3 years and I had hundreds of great workouts with him. At the beginning, my goal was to run faster. Josh tailored my training for cardio and speed and I ran the fastest mile of my life. Later I wanted to focus on getting stronger, so he modified our training program and had me hitting new PRs on bench and deadlift every month. He regularly added new exercises targeting hard to reach muscles and keeping the workouts fresh and challenging. Josh taught me how to improve my form and how to pace my training so I could consistently make gains in the gym. His positive energy and individual attention made our workouts the best hours of my week. If I hadn’t moved away, I’d still be training with him today.
If you are looking at Josh’s pictures, it is easy to see that Josh knows about strength training. What might be harder to see on social media is that he is also an awesome human to work with. I started lifting with Josh 10 weeks after giving birth to my second child, when my strength and my self-confidence were at an all-time low. Over three years later, I have never wanted to skip one of my workouts with Josh. He is supportive, kind, funny, and knowledgable. I appreciate his non-judgmental motivation and his positivity, and I’m proud of my gains in strength and in confidence. I highly recommend Josh—he has a huge heart, he has a lot of knowledge that he is always willing to share, he will be invested in helping you achieve your goals, and he will make your workout something you look forward to.
I have been working with Josh for nearly 2 years. His passion, intensity, and sheer work ethic still continue to grow and amaze me to this day. I started working with Josh when I decided that I wanted to compete in my first Classic Physique competition. Josh’s guidance helped me achieve a physique I felt was too good to be true. His coaching is unmatched. He truly embodies his passion for fitness and the sport of Bodybuilding.
I found Josh through a mutual friend on Instagram, and I immediately knew that he was the real deal. Josh embodies a professional work ethic combined with true passion for helping others. His dedication to bodybuilding- along with extensive knowledge of exercise science- makes him to be one of the greatest personal trainers available. Not only is he completely devoted to helping others create a better version of themselves, but he also practices what he preaches and proves how committed he truly is. Josh coached me for a bodybuilding contest prep in which I was able to shed 35lbs in only twelve weeks. His diet program and workout plans are second to none, and he was available to chat whenever any questions would arise. One of the hardest workers I have ever met, Josh knows how to create a plan to get you the results that you want and keep you on track. After training with Josh, I was the leanest and strongest I have ever been in my life, and I would absolutely recommend anybody looking to forward their fitness and strength goals to connect with him for incredible results!
A stressful career; emerging from the pandemic; and having just turned 50, I found myself in the worst shape of my life. I was embarrassed at just how out of shape I was and felt defeated. Going to the gym on my own felt like trying to get somewhere without a map. It only added to my frustration. I reached out to Josh, talked to him about my health and fitness aspirations. He listened without judgement and then surprised me by sending me a customized workout plan and diet. We meet one day each week and I can honestly say there is no hour that I look forward to more than my training session with Josh. Several months in, the routine never gets old as he changes things up to keep it interesting and to build strength. I now know what I should and should not be doing when I’m working out on my own. I smile when I look in the mirror as I can see the results. Perhaps most importantly, Josh’s thoughtful approach to training, his positivity and encouragement makes me feel great. Josh Brown is knowledgeable, professional and I would recommend him to anyone considering working with a trainer.

I’ve been training with Josh for several years. He knows when it’s going to be a good day for me and it’s time to push me; he also knows when he needs to hold back. It’s been fun and I have made great strides in strength and lifting confidence. I keep advancing and have developed strength way beyond what I expected.
I have been working with Josh for a little over two months now and have been pleased with results thus far. He is very dedicated to his craft, always leading by example. As a client, it is reassuring to have someone who continuously demonstrates their passion for fitness. His training style has been effective and what I appreciate the most is that he is always readily accessible. Any questions or concerns you may have are only a text away. I look forward to continue training with him and seeing what this next year brings!

I have been training with Josh for the last 4 months and I have gained things that can be measured and I have also gained things that cannot be measured. Physically I have changed my body composition by cutting fat and gaining muscle. This was a struggle for me as I was always one to measure progress by the number on the scale and how flat my stomach was. Josh quickly changed this mindset and reminded me that the important way to measure my progress is by strength, both physical and mental. Watching the number in weight increase and while also watching my determination and perseverance grow is how Josh taught me to track my progress. He is encouraging, motivating, supportive, challenging and trains you to be the best version of yourself through each workout.
There’s a reason why people keep coming back to Josh’s weight lifting courses-he makes the courses challenging but fun! It’s a lot easier to meet your strength goals with the support of Josh and the rest of the class than to do it alone. Josh is down to earth and friendly, but keeps you accountable and pushes you to get stronger. He’s extremely knowledgeable about weight lifting and nutrition and works with you to design a specific way to get stronger based on specific goals. Happy to be a regular in his classes and I’d highly recommend him to anyone interested in regular weight lifting

I wrestled for about 6 years from fourth grade to sophomore year. End of the sophomore year season I was 129.7 lbs. Wanting to put on muscle, I immediately consulted Josh. Although my expectations were high, I was still blown away by the quality of personalized guidance and advice I received daily. Both in the gym and out Josh is more than a trainer; he is an advisor in all matters of health. Whether you’re seeking to recover or prevent injury, lose weight or gain muscle like I was, you can trust that you’ve come to the right place.
Just writing to update you on things and prep to reconnect for Ian’s next steps. The football season is all but over now and it’s been quite a ride. While the team struggled this year, Ian was a breakout star. Your work with him this summer helped him earn a spot as a starter on both offense and defense. He displaced senior starters at both right guard and left tackle. And he was a “beast” this year (not my word but the nickname the team gave him). He ran over players opposite him and often times “punched above his weight” when he faced linemen who were bigger than him. He became a critical member of the MHS squad and we couldn’t be more proud of what he’s accomplished. Best of all, he played every snap and down if every game, while making it through the season without injury!! He has even started to become a leader in that he’s been helping some of the younger players in the weight room with their technique and form. I think back to all the work you put in with him this summer and the improvements he made with you. You’ve made this possible, and I couldn’t be more thankful.
I am a 42-year-old mother of two elementary-school aged children. When I stared training with Josh three years ago I suffered from chronic back pain and had not exercised regularly for years. I was interested in weightlifting for the long-term benefits to bone, muscle, and metabolic health, but felt lost and intimidated in the weight room. As a trainer, Josh brings technical skill and strategy for effective training, tons of motivation, as well as a great personality. His enthusiasm and dedication to his own strength training journey is infectious. I now have the knowledge to feel confident in the weight room of any gym, and actually enjoy working out enough to make it a priority. I never dreamed I would be stronger in my 40s than I was in my 20s but here we are, and I love it.

Josh designed an 8 week program that I reached out with the intentions of gaining weight and adding muscle mass. He cooked up an amazing program that helped me increase lean muscle mass and gain 10lbs. Anyone can deliver workouts, but Josh made the importance of nutrition a main factor as well. If you are looking for a knowledgeable and dedicated trainer- Josh is your trainer. 5/5
Josh is a fabulous trainer, just the right combo of push and encouragement. He is always bettering his knowledge and putting into action the benefits of his learning through his fitness program and communications. One of Josh’s strengths is providing a program that never gets old or stale. He has the capacity to change things up, making the workouts interesting and challenging by using new and varied techniques as well as different types of fitness equipment. If you are looking for a personal trainer look no further.

Josh is incredibly dedicated to his craft. He checks in to be constantly aware of how his clients are feeling while adjusting the plan based on the photos sent in. Throughout the time being coached by him he has helped me cut to being stage ready and bulk properly with minimal body fat added while consistently adding strength. He’s flexible and available for whenever I needed help or had questions to ask. With hard work you will achieve your goals working with Josh. – Brandon L
I’ve been working with Josh on my first competition prep and I can say I couldn’t be happier, from the meal plan, training plan, and constant communication he has really helped me make the most out of my physique in the short time that we have been working together. He is extremely professional and a master of his craft. I can’t wait to continue to work together in the future!
