A Little About Me
My name is Joe, and I own and operate Joe Baker Fitness.
My goal is to teach you about nutrition and fitness. Change takes more than following a recipe or training routine. For this reason, I provide one-on-one coaching where we find out your mental and physical barriers. Together, we will identify anything that is keeping you from achieving your goals and design a program specifically tailored to your needs.
Take a look at our programs if this sounds right for you.
My Fitness Journey
My story starts in the beginning of 2013, ambitious for a new year I stepped on the scale in disbelief. 189lbs! No way! But who was I kidding. The years prior, I wandered through life eating junk and living for the weekend. I found myself 5’ 10’’ and 189 pounds of death waiting to happen.
I tried making the usual changes that we all try. The latest diet, get a gym membership, you know the drill. Through the year these changes that I was trying to make a habit would come and go. The truth is I lacked the knowledge and discipline to make any progress.
But in late 2015, I sought out a core support group with similar interests. By the grace of God, he led me to an excellent group of men who would change my world as I knew it, forever.
In this group I was challenged to look inward and ask myself some tough questions. Through this self examination and discussion I discovered my passion for helping others. I want to help others with leadership, discipline and pushing the body and mind to its limits.
This renewal of my body and mind gave me a burning desire to help others experience what I had gained. As a result, I started training family and friends and Joe Baker Fitness was born.

Why Do I Do This?
When I see people come out of bad situations and take control of their life I am so satisfied. It is inspiring to witness transformations that lead to real change and open new doors.
I love people and believe everyone has a breakthrough story just around the corner. Often we just need a guide, someone who can provide clarity and a plan for achieving our goals. I would love for the opportunity to be that guide for you.
