Five stars is not enough! My wife and I have been training at Stout-Heart Fitness for some time…read morenow, and it has been an incredible journey - from a home garage gym when we first joined to their new location, which is a full-fledged professional space with an expanding team of trainers. Their approach, rooted in StrongFit, blends strength training with CrossFit principles, and starts with biometric assessments to track measurable progress. Beyond workouts, they also provide dietary counseling, making it a truly holistic fitness experience.
We've had the privilege of working with Josiah, and we couldn't ask for a better trainer. When we started he primarily worked with neurodivergent individuals. From the outset he brought a welcoming, understanding, and motivational approach to our sessions; Josiah is incredibly kind, personable, patient, and knowledgeable, always bringing the positive, uplifting energy - despite whatever you bring with you to class, by the time you leave you'll be happy you went.
What sets Josiah apart is his emphasis on the mental and emotional aspects of fitness--helping us recognize how our mindset impacts our workouts and how our workouts, in turn, influence our mental state. He genuinely cares about our progress, is excited about our personal records, and is invested in our well-being. We travel frequently for work, and we're genuinely dreading our next move because we know we'll never find another trainer quite like Josiah. If you're looking for a solid gym in the AV, Stout-Heart Fitness is uncontested.
