JMB Fitness

Fantastic experience: JMB Fitness is the absolute best! You walk in the doors and you instantly feel welcomed and accepted wherever you are on your fitness journey. You will be embraced, pushed and encouraged each and every step of the way. The sense of belonging is amazing and so what I needed when I joined. The trainers including Josh, Devyn and Peyton care about your mental well being as well as your physical health and will get you to where you want to be. They are so invested in your success and their check-ins and positive messages via text throughout the week just proves how invested they are in you. The community is fun, upbeat and supportive. They truly are your FitFam!! My weekly personal training sessions and Sunday classes are the best hours of my week. I can’t say enough about JMB Fitness and the trainers. So thankful for this place. Truly a gem in Fairport!

Fantastic experience: It was a great experience. I look forward to beginning their program

Fantastic experience: It is a great experience at JMB Fitness and specifically with Coach Devin as well as Josh of course. The semi-private class has been a perfect fit for the goals I'm trying to accomplish. It has been a nice rotating set of upper body exercises each week which have been a perfect complement to the running I do on other days. The encouragement of the coaches and Josh himself is weekly, outstanding and very personal. It is funny as a lot of places like this have the add-ons that they would love to sell you, those exist here and are available, but never once in over six months has any of that stuff been pushed or upsold to me. The focus is the current workout, your goals, and constant encouragement. I suppose at some point the extras can be discussed, but it will be more of my enquiring about them instead of trying to avoid a solicitation. This whole way of training has been a great experience.

Fantastic experience: If you are considering joining JMB fitness- all I can say is DO IT! In the last 10 years I have had 7 major surgeries, and have been diagnoses with Lupus, Fibromyalgia and Hypothyroidism. To say the least, I am a train wreck! So I rolled into my 60’s In the worst shape of my life and holding on to an extra 90 pounds. I had tried going to a couple of other gyms or workout places, but they would promise me the world, and then throw me into a class with no instructions and then I would get injured. I tried doing it on my own, but having never done it, I had no idea what I was doing and would hurt myself. I didn’t want to give up, so when I saw the ad, I decided to try one more time. Honestly I was at the end of my rope and getting pretty depressed. I met with Joshua and we talked at length about my concerns. I really felt like he got it. So I signed up. I pretty much came in expecting the worst but hoping for the best. I won’t tell you it’s been easy, but the team has worked with me every step of the way. When I have flare ups, we ease my work out, but keep me moving. I have yet to make it all the way through a workout without having to stop, but it is my goal. When I feel embarrassed they make me feel better. They get me to challenge myself, but do it safely and with guidance. They are the greatest people to work with. And the other members are all uplifting too, and never make you feel bad. They are so encouraging. I am so much happier now that I am doing this for myself. No matter where you are at in your life and fitness- this is the place for you. You won’t be disappointed! Karen Stolt JMB Fit Fam!

Fantastic experience: JMB Fitness... No excuses only solutions. Biggest motivation person on the planet. I have been with Josh for about two years. He gives you 110% all the time ... if you want to save your life ... Josh is the man. UPDATE ... 06.17.2022 Josh is still the man. What separates him from others, is that he cares about you and your goals.

Fantastic experience: Perfect place for all your fitness needs.

Fantastic experience: JMB Fitness embodies a healthy understanding of mind/body/spirit balance. Josh is an incredible coach who intuitively understands people. His approach is mindful of how an individual moves, thinks, feels. That connection has been important for my own growth and well-being. I joined over 2 years ago and I am a better person in mind/body/spirit for being part of the family atmosphere of JMB Fitness. Thank you, Josh, for your dedication, passion and expertise!

Fantastic experience: I joined JMB Fitness 5 months ago after meeting Josh and asking many questions about what they offer as well as his workout practices and health beliefs. I had searched for quite some time, not feeling comfortable with what I tried or thought about committing to. I had beaten breast cancer recently so my outlook on staying healthy and regaining strength changed immensely. I would only join a team that could take me to higher levels of fitness that I never imagined or knew existed! I joined before leaving that same day. They truly care about mind, body and overall health in general. I feel part of a family who continually inspires, supports, and positively guides each step that you choose to take. I feel constantly challenged and the Fit Family at JMB cheers you on, discusses what works for them or what might work better for you, and they exchange ideas on products to try. Most importantly they suggest ways to stay focused and always moving forward. Life can be overwhelming and full of negativity. Joining JMB and walking in there several times a week has improved my quality of life and increased the desire to be where I am with Josh and this amazing group of people!

Fantastic experience: Josh and his team are focused on not just your fitness, but your total well being. They positive energy they bring to each workout helps set the frame for the positive changes you are trying to make in your life.

Fantastic experience: JMB Fitness is the only place to even consider going if you need a Personal Trainer. They litterally give you their entire self. I own a gym in Atlanta and have for over 15 years. JMB Fitness is owned and operated by the most legit people in the industry. You will have top notch training and coaching when you join this community. There should be no question where you are going if you need to get healthy and finally feel good again.

Fantastic experience: First, I am not a gym person. Second, I am not easily motivated. However after joining JMB Fitness both of those statements are no longer true. Josh is the best personal trainer who keeps my workouts fun, challenging and motivating. I am so thankful I discovered this gym and all the wonderful members who inspire and support one another. And best of all the program I am in has given me results of better health, strength and all-around happiness. THANK YOU JMB Fitness for all that you do!

Fantastic experience: My experience working with Josh has been incredible. He knows how to motivate me and make workouts enjoyable. He helped me to build a routine which has now become habit. I actually want to work out and miss it when I can’t attend. Most importantly, he has helped me work through some hip issues and tailors the workouts to best suit me. I’ve been able to workout without pain and have gained strength, both physically and mentally. I would highly recommend Josh, the JMB team, and the entire JMB community!

Fantastic experience: JMB has new products and they are fantastic! I have been drinking a protein shake for lunch for about 5 years now....and they were ok, but I still felt like I was missing something... With JMB's new healthy fit line....I am complete! The shakes fill me up and satisfy my sweet tooth craving...I swear I am drinking chocolate milk or a milk shake... Thank you Josh for being such an amazing inspiration to my husband and me... Why didn't you find us sooner Joshua is a trainer who takes the time to listen to what your goals are for your body and your health. He makes working out fun, engaging and makes you want to do better for your future you... Look into JMB if you want to change the way you feel about your body and your mind.. He is amazingly motivating and truly cares about giving us the tools to have our best life

Fantastic experience: Positive: Communication , Professionalism , Quality I have recently purchased supplements and really feel like they give me more energy. The protein powder is the best tasting protein powder I’ve had. Most protein powders cause me to experience a stomach ache. I make smoothies with the powder! Really taste so good, and no stomach ache!!

Fantastic experience: I have been working with Josh for 5+ years and cannot imagine anything different. He is more than a trainer or coach, but some that looks out for you and helps guide you in the right direction. I have lost 50+ lbs since working with Josh, and with that I have gained lots of muscle mass and more importantly greater self confidence. I have changed positively in so many ways and I'm so thankful to have his guidance! I would recommend JMB Fitness to anyone looking to change their lifestyle around!

Fantastic experience: JMB fitness always challenges me to take it to the next level. The classes are high energy and my personal training sessions are always fresh.

Fantastic experience: Josh is one of the most knowledgable, inspiring, committed, effective trainers I have ever worked with in my many years of health and fitness. He is extremely talented in being able to push clients just the right amount with a focus on safety and effectiveness. He works hard to customize fun workouts that meet the needs of many different fitness levels and most importantly, he helps people get RESULTS. He truly cares about making each and every client stronger, healthier and guides them on how to live their best life. I have worked out with 25+ personal trainers in both NYC and Rochester and Josh is top of the list!!!

Fantastic experience: Josh has done an amazing job of creating the positive environment for his clients to work for a healthier lifestyle. He creates a personal connection with every client and encourages a family atmosphere, supporting everyone whether they attend individual sessions or group classes. I am very happy that I decided to join the fit fam and look forward to each and every session!!

Fantastic experience: I thoroughly enjoy working with Josh and look forward to each session!

Fantastic experience: Testimonial for JMB Fitness and Joshua Bankes I have been seeing Joshua Bankes at JMB Fitness now for a few months. I began to notice more strength and flexibility after just one session with Josh. It has grown steadily since then. I have had trainers before in different athletic situations, but I never worked with anyone who was able to focus on my specific issues so quickly and accurately. I had no idea why I was so stiff and I also didn’t know how to get out of favoring one side. Josh identified exercises for me to do right away at home, inexpensive tools I could get to supplement my fitness at home, too. The other unique thing about Josh is his ability to see the most subtle ways your body is “cheating” on weight lifting or favoring one side. He is friendly, supportive and an expert at helping the individual identify ways to achieve their goals. He also noticed something in my diet right away that needed to be tweaked. The one change gave me a lot more energy throughout the day. If you have any fitness goals, questions, or concerns, Josh is an expert coach. Whether you want to lose weight, feel better about yourself, or just feel stronger and confident in your body, I highly recommend Joshua. He combines his years of extensive training and professional experience along with his very highly attuned intuition to help you. Teacher

Fantastic experience: I reached out to Josh through an email asking if he could carve out a small portion of time to meet with me and give me any tips and advice for someone interested in the fitness field, and he was more than happy to help. Not only did he inspire and teach me some helpful words but he allowed me to join in with an upcoming workout class. I had a blast and I definitely plan on continuing to push myself at JMB fitness in order to reach my goals.

Fantastic experience: I would recommend Josh to a person at any fitness level to beginning to advanced. I have known Josh going on 3 years and the positive impact he had made on my life has been immeasurable! Josh concentrates on the physical and emotional being and always stresses how interconnected the two parts are and how important it is to keep both parts in harmony. I have several physical issues that cause me to have good days and bad days and Josh is always willing to adjust our workout routine based on where I am on a given day. Josh lives what he preaches and is all about getting out of your comfort zone however he will never let you harm yourself in any way. In fact, it is in a large part due to listening and watching him that I decided to start my own business recently. Thank you for all you do Josh, you keep many of us going!!!!!

Fantastic experience: I just started going here and working with Josh a couple of months ago, and I am already noticing a change with myself, not only physically, but also with my confidence and self worth. Josh is a very inspirational trainer. He makes you want to do better, not for him, but for yourself. He holds you accountable so that you can focus on your goals and achieving them. Going to a gym and putting in the time can be a struggle sometimes, but I always look forward to a workout with Josh because I know I am going to leave feeling accomplished and proud. So all that said, I would highly recommend Josh as a trainer, regardless of what stage you are in athletically or health wise, because he will take the time to get to know you and work with you so that you can achieve whatever goals you have. Also, Sunday shredded church is fantastic, and a great thing to start with (like I did) if you just want to meet everyone and get a taste of what Josh has to offer!

Fantastic experience: Josh at JMB Fitness is your go to guy for anything health, fitness or inspiration related. Josh has been my coach/trainer for 3 years and I don't plan on going anywhere else. Although it's been a work in progress, Josh has stood by my side through the ups and downs of my health and fitness journey. Josh goes above and beyond for his clients. Whether it's a text each day to keep you motivated or his genuine desire to do whatever it takes to help you meet your goals. His personal training sessions are top notch and Sunday Shredded Church is one of the best workouts you'll have. I highly recommend Josh at JMB-you won't be disappointed.

Fantastic experience: Finding Josh and JMB Fitness has been the best thing to happen to my physical and mental health. The atmosphere that Josh creates in both his one on one sessions and Sunday Shredded Church is motivational and inspirational. You really feel like a team and family.

Fantastic experience: What I can't share on here is the photo proof of how amazing and knowledgeable Josh at JMB is. Josh pushes you to reach your physical best and makes sure you are always progressing to the next level. My entire body shape has transformed under the direction of Josh. I love our little Fitfam. Whatever your fitness goals, josh will deliver.
