This is the greatest personal training gym for people on the spectrum I can imagine. My sons with severe autism have been attending for a couple of years and they love it and have grown in strength, skill and confidence. They love their time there. Every skill is built up from the bottom with brilliant visual and physical supports. We love Pete and Larry and the other trainers. Their dedication, skill and ability to motivate the most reluctant people is amazing.

Full Spectrum Fitness has quickly become one of the highlights of our week. My son is 15 and has been working with trainers for 2+ years now weekly. The adaptive personal training programs they offer can’t be found elsewhere. The routines they create for each child/adult is made specifically to meet their needs and help them grow even more. My son is nonspeaking and the trainers talk to him like the 15 year old he is, always presuming competence. The connections are so important. We recommend to anyone and everyone!

We cannot say enough great things about FSF! Pete is an amazing guy who truly understands the needs of autistic adults. He, along with his staff, are so helpful, have excellent rapport with their clients, and treat them with the respect they deserve. Our son has truly blossomed since coming to FSF and he looks forward to coming every week to work with Pete and Molly!

Our son has been attending Full Spectrum for almost three months and it has been a wonderful experience for him! He looks forward to going to his session with Pete each week. Their patience, understanding, kindness, and encouragement has really boosted our son’s self esteem. Pete is so supportive and encouraging - he truly meets our son where he is and gives him an individualized experience. Pete believes in his clients and treats them with respect and doesn’t infantilize them. It’s amazing to watch their interactions and I’m constantly in awe of what they can get my son to do! This has been the best decision we’ve made for our son. The gym is spacious and bright, the staff is friendly and supportive, and our son has made significant progress - he feels welcomes and accepted there.

Full Spectrum Fitness is a wonderful place for all abilities!! Our son has been attending one-on-one sessions with Pete for about 2 months and hands down the best experience. Pete is extremely supportive and develops an individualized fitness plan for my son each week. It's wonderful to watch my son do things that I thought he might have trouble with or might not be able to do and he succeeds!! Pete and his crew not only have a physical fitness backgroud but special education background, too. It is a place of inclusion, respect and celebration of achievements. Going there is my favorite part of the week!!

We are so glad to have been recommended to Full Spectrum Fitness. Our adult daughter (age 22) who is on the Autism Spectrum has just completed her 3rd session and we are looking forward to continuing weekly sessions. Pete and Larry having a background in special education gives us a great degree of confidence in them.

Full Spectrum Fitness has been an amazing place to take my son! Pete has an incredible rapport with him and my son has improved greatly with Pete's specialized program. My son looks forward to going every week and I never thought I would see the day he loved exercise so much! Their new site in Broomall is spacious and bright, and Pete is always implementing new things to improve Full Spectrum Fitness. There truly is no other place like this for people with special needs anywhere in the area.

Pete is amazing! He is knowledgeable, kind and has a gift of coming up with the ways to teach individuals with dyspraxia. It’s still quite rare to meet professionals understanding dyspraxia. He is very respectful in all of his interactions. My son is nonverbal and Pete is always talking to him not at him. My son made an incredible progress for the last 3 years. I drive my son 1 hr to have a session. Highly recommend.

Full Spectrum Fitness is outstanding. My 17-year-old son has been working with Pete Phillips for two years now and he has developed better strength, coordination and a desire to exercise regularly. Pete has a gift for keeping him motivated and engaged. He also has lots of tools strategies that make exercise accessible. Highly recommended.
