Joe's Gym

Joe's Gym is like my second home. I have been training at this gym for 15 years. Joe personally trains you and monitors your progress. He is at the gym everyday. The whole atmosphere at the gym is positive. Members are friendly and welcoming.

Visiting Erie for a week for family and wanted to continue working out. I've driven past Joe's Gym for probably 18 odd years and never set foot inside and well as someone who lives life without regrets, I now have one life regret: not being in Erie to work out at this gym. When I walked through the front door of Joe's I immediately packed on 5 lbs of lean muscle mass. Could it be the old school gym equipment that would make 1970s bodybuilders like Zane, Columba, and Schwarzenegger nostalgic or the community of well trained lifters here who are welcoming to all newcomers to this temple of raw iron? Regardless, as I will be returning back home by the end of the week, I will certainly not be getting the same pump and gains at my big corp gym. The week pass is probably the best value for a gym i've ever seen and I will be back again. Never change Joe's Gym!

When I started working a new full time job, I needed a workout program I could do that could benefit me the most in my stressful stage of life. I began to research and found that if you are limited with time and energy, then lifting weights should be your priority. I decided to put all my eggs in that basket. I knew I wanted someone who could coach me to higher level stuff, BUT I was SO impressed to find out that Coach Joe prioritizes nutrition first and believes in holistic health. I was not intimidated by this because I already believe in that lifestyle. Coach Joe also has that passionate, gritty and hard-working vibe that is motivating to me. I feel very lucky to be training in his gym and Erie is very blessed to have him.

19 years ago a local Erie wrist specialist wanted to fuse my wrist and make it inoperable. That day, I join Joe’s Gym and today I have full use of my left rest and I am in better shape than I’ve ever been in. I followed up with the Cleveland Clinic three years ago and the doctor told me whatever I’m doing it’s working. The doctor also agreed he would have fused my wrist 19 yrs ago. Thank you Joe Orangia.

I was in Erie for about 2 weeks, and I wanted a gym where I could continue with my powerlifting training. This gym had everything I needed, and I loved the atmosphere. Everyone was so kind, and Joe was so nice every time I spoke with him. I definitely recommend Joe's if you're looking for an old school styled gym that has everything you need. I will for sure use Joe's every time I'm in Erie. Thank you Joe, for letting me use your gym 🙌
