Josh Mekota, CSCS
Founding Father & Director of training
COACH JOSH’s motto on health + fitness? “It’s a lifelong journey, so just show up, give 100% of what you have that day and you’ll (always) feel better than when you started!”
As a graduate of Miami of Ohio with a degree in Exercise Science, Josh received his professional certification from the National Strength and Conditioning Association. Coach Josh’s affinity for connecting with people led him to where he is more today: helping the humans he works with unlock their full potential.
For the last 20 years, Josh’s unwavering commitment to empower others continues to spark life-changing results both physically and mentally.
Josh brings out the best in everyone with his sense of humor, quick whit and ability to always find the silver lining. Josh firmly believes having fun (and being a little weird) is key:
“Just be YOU, have fun in all you do ’cause life’s too short and not meant to be taken seriously!”
Hidden Talent: Growing a mustache and looking like Freddie Mercury!
