  I've been working with John for 13 months and have seen amazing results in that time. I have never felt stronger or healthier. John is passionate about fitness and it shows through the energy and enthusiasm he brings to every session. His easy going, friendly personality creates a relaxed, comfortable atmosphere. He makes each workout challenging, creative and most importantly, fun! John also places a high value on correct form with each exercise. He motivates me to push past my perceived limits to get results. I have incredible energy, my balance and flexibility have improved immensely and I've got great new muscles.

  "Thank You" to John Pepitone and all you do! In June 2010, I really didn’t know what to expect, and remember walking (crawling) out after that first workout, wondering what on earth did I get myself into (...and how do I get out). As you know, the first few weeks were difficult to say the least. Sometimes I wish we had a video of it, but on second thought that’s probably a good thing we don’t. I’m sure I did not like my physical appearance, but I am sure John gave me then, and now, 100% of his time and talents. And for that – I am sincerely grateful and always will be. Words really don’t express the gratitude I owe John and that feeling of reinvented myself, feeling healthy and happy.

  I look back over 20 months and still find it hard to realize I was "that young fat girl" in the picture. Unfortunately, the past 8-12 years have been of me looking back at trying everything fad diets, classes, signing up at gyms etc. Those un-healthy years from middle school to my junior year in college had me feeling the same way: depressed and unmotivated. In fact, I was only going one way – the wrong way. With John's support, I took off about 25 pounds over the first 3 months, and have maintained my weight loss for the last year, dropping a total of 55 pounds lost over 21 inches and dropping my body fat from 39% to 21%. Many specific goals were reached – some yet to come. John's training and coaching has given me the confidence to set high goals, and since New Years day 2013 I've decided to start preparations to become a bikini competitor in the amateur division and possibly go all the way and make a full run for a pro card in the future.

  I know this battle has only begun and the fight continues. I couldn't have done it without your support, encouragement, and motivation.

  In 2006 I weighed 230 lbs (5’5”). Today I weigh 150lbs and have lost 15% body fat. Much of this has been accomplished since I’ve been training with John for the past four years. I really look forward to my regular training sessions with John, who is impressively knowledgeable and passionate about weight training and other aspects of physical fitness. And he always gives me the extra encouragement I need.

  I’m very pleased to be part of John success with his EverStrong FitnNY training and coaching systems. With his dedication and attention to his clients is any judge, I’m sure and guarantee anyone to have great success.

  John Pepitone has been my trainer for several years now. I have had numerous trainers in the past but none that hold a candle to John. He has always been so conscientious and innovative. I never know what exercise will come next. Sometimes I am so blown away by his creativeness. He is careful with being conscious of my past injuries and works with what his client can and cannot do. He pushes me within my capabilities and most of the time I am surprised what my capabilities are. I get an amazing workout EVERY single time. I play a lot of tennis and really feel that since I have been working out with John, I have had no injuries due to my physical conditioning from my workouts. I have people stop me all the time to say, "wow, you must workout! You look so strong and amazing." Needless to say, that is a great feeling.

  Unlike most trainers that I have seen, John never takes his eye off of his client to look around. He corrects your positioning and how you work. I can not say enough how fantastic a trainer John Pepitone is.

I like the fact that we share the same passion for fitness and helping each other excel. He inspires me as a fitness expert, trainer, motivator, business man, life coach, friend, and mostly for using his strengths and talent to help people become their absolute BEST!

  John does an outstanding job by setting an example not only for his clients but for the general public. His passion for what he does shows in his dedication to his clients, and his healthy, fit lifestyle. He is one who absolutely cares about his clients and people in general. Trainers who care make things happen, and continue to train themselves with knowledge to give the best service possible.

  As an older age group triathlete I know the importance of strength training in addition to aerobic conditioning to maximize athletic performance as well overall health and fitness.

  I have been working with John twice a week for the past 3 years. His workouts have safely helped me maintain my muscle mass and control my weight enabling me to compete effectively in triathlons, masters swimming, and ski races.

  John is a superb trainer-attentive, diligent, and knowledgeable. I highly recommend him.

• As a competitive tennis player, it is necessary for me to remain in shape all year round. John has been instrumental in my nutritional and physical improvement both on the court and in my daily life, as he has worked with me to create a specific nutritional plan that fits my body type and level of physical activity. He is the ideal fitness trainer as he does not allow you to give up on yourself or sell yourself short. John has been more than a trainer, but someone who will show you that any goal is attainable through hard work.

• John is, simply put, the ultimate trainer. He exemplifies all of the attributes necessary to deserve this title. His firm grasp on the inner working of the human body allow him to shape and sculpt his clients based on their own idea of what the perfect body is. This is not a side job for John; this is his career and his passion. His dedication to his work and his clients is profound and his professionalism is evident in everything he does. The only thing that tops John's skill as a trainer is his personality. You won’t find a better coach and I guarantee you will become his friend. You will enjoy every minute of him pushing you to the limit as I always have. I give John my highest recommendation.

• John Pepitone is one of the best personal trainers I have worked with over the years, mostly because he really loves what he does and is so passionate about it. He cares about his clients and them getting the results they are looking for.

  He is also one of the most reliable when it comes to scheduling, which I have always found hard in this business to find someone who is so flexible and willing to work with you, especially because he always gets back to me, and I appreciate that because we both respect each other's time. He is very professional and he listens to me...very important when it comes to working with a trainer.

  John also is extremely knowledgeable about the body, and clearly by looking at him, he knows how to train effectively and safely. He is able to work with all age groups and always is prepared to challenge me but also very concerned about how I am feeling during the workout. His first concern is safety, and that is very important in working with a personal trainer.

  Being that he loves what he does so much, he is able to really be creative and always gives me a different workout, but one that makes sense, because I surely feel the burn. I never know what's coming next, which is great because the time goes fast, and it's not boring.

  He is also able to guide his clients nutritionally, which is very key in getting results. I feel very lucky to have found him and would recommend him to anyone looking for a trainer who really connects with his clients.
