Plus Ultra Fitness

I have been working with the Plus Ultra team for about nine months now averaging 3-4 days a week. After having my daughter I knew I needed a change, that's when I joined the Plus Ultra team. My goals going in were to lose weight, get stronger and gain confidence in my ability to do both. Over the last nine months I have lost almost 30 pounds and I have moved up in the amount of weight I can move more than I ever imagined.Previously I was injured in an accident, I did not want to miss my workouts as I truly enjoy them. I spoke with the owner and coach about this and as my injury was not severe he agreed I could continue to workout. However, he modified my movements to make sure I would not injure myself further. With the modifications I was able to workout with the team, work up a sweat, and feel satisfied at the end of my workout as I would any other day. I am grateful to have a owner of a gym that listens to our concerns and works through them with us.I was never one to enjoy working out, especially with others as I lack confidence in my abilities. Working with a coach and a team that encourage and support allowed me to start becoming my best self. Whether your goal is to lose weight, get stronger, gain confidence or just work with a team for accountability purposes Plus Ultra is a place for all of the above. At the end of each workout I realize that while I'm exhausted I truly did have FUN!

This gym is awesome! The atmosphere is so welcoming and comfortable. The fitness level of members ranges from basically expert to beginner but the exercises/classes can be modified to suit any fitness level! There is no judgement from anyone, only encouragement and support. Everyone there is there to reach goals and to help all of the other members reach theirs. I was only able to be a member for a month as I was visiting Fort Wayne for work... but I can say that month had a huge impact on me. I definitely intend to continue my fitness journey and work on the skills I learned from everyone there. Thank you Plus Ultra family!

I stopped by Plus Ultra Fitness while in town and had a great workout with some great people. I’ve known Joe for years and know for a fact he knows his stuff. He takes pride in his programming, equipment and cleanliness even when there isn’t a pandemic. If you’re looking for a place that’s more than just a gym make sure to stop by Plus Ultra and see Joe! You won’t be disappointed.

I love it. I am beyond thrilled to have found this gym. Coming from traditional weight lifting (body-building/powerlifting style) I have always been hesitant to go to a group fitness type class, thinking I wont get much out of it besides maybe cardio. WOW WAS I WRONG! The way Joe (the owner/trainer/workout guru/Doctor of Chiro/friend) constructs the class is what kept me surprised and happy. Variety is key when working out and not getting bored. With Plus Ultra you get everything here; from strength, to cardio, to just learning the proper techniques for a long and healthy lifestyle. The workouts are 1 hour long but im finding out that I like the atmosphere so much I end up staying longer. If you're looking for a gym to start your fitness journey, I not only recommend Plus Ultra but I recommend joining the supportive community that this style of gym brings. Hope this helps someone take that first step.

This gym may have only just opened, but I have been doing the programming 3 days a week on average for just over a year now. Prior to starting I had no experience, but as I got older (34) I started to feel the need to start being active. This programming and atmosphere has turned in to something I truly enjoy, and keeps me coming back when working out was never something I considered a high priority. The reason for this is because of good coaching by those who know what they are talking about and a positive culture. Whether it's coaches or members, everyone is helping each other and cheering each other on. That goes a long way for someone like me with not a lot of confidence in this area.It's not just a confidence booster. You actually see results as well, whether your goal is just to lose weight or if it's to pack on some muscle. I have simultaneously trimmed down, while becoming stronger than I ever have been before. As an example, a year ago my max dead lift was low 200's, and just this week I lifted 265 with an added 30 pounds in chains hanging from the bar. Pull ups were also not a thing I could do, and now I can. And I find myself going up in weight over time in workouts, whether that's with a bar or dumbbells. There's something for literally everyone no matter what your current physical status is. If you can't do a certain movement for whatever reason, they have a modified version that still allows you to work out that part of the body and get a good workout.At the end of the day this place is great, the people are great, and the results are great. Come join the FUN!

Joined the Plus Ultra Team about 3 months ago now and it’s been the best the decision I could’ve made for myself. I use the word Team instead of gym because that’s exactly what it is. A collection of individuals who are different in every way but always have one resounding thought: crush goals and have fun! Take the plunge today and see what you didn’t even know you needed. Thanks for sharing your gift Joe!

Plus Ultra is my home away from home, and not just because my husband owns the place :)As a wife, mom, and physician, I am living my busiest (and fullest) life, but it wouldn’t be complete without the body & soul of this gym. Making my fitness “comeback” after 2 babies, I can say this programming is tried and true! I’ve never been stronger! I make the time, because it WORKS!It’s been amazing to see my hubby’s vision come to life helping others achieve their highest fitness goals! He pours his heart and expertise into programming EVERY work out; if it isn’t good enough for him, it isn’t good enough for you! He wants you to succeed more than you do and works hard to individualize work outs so you get exactly what you want out of it.This an awesome place to work out, hang with friends (old & new), build community, and call my fitness home!

Hands down, best choice I’ve made joining Plus Ultra. VERY friendly people who make me actually want to go the gym. I look forward to walking through the doors and always feel amazing when I leave. They want to you to crush your goals just as much as you do!

Highly recommend Plus Ultra Fitness. Such a fun and encouraging environment. Joe makes you feel confident in trying new things and is always motivating to reach your goals.

This place is more than just a gym! The coaching is phenomenal and you'll find a great group of people cheering along side you to reach your goals! Just try it I promise it's not like anything you've tried before.
