I joined Joint Effort earlier this month. The group classes at JES are perfect for me (and affordable). I work out at my own pace with a skilled trainer overseeing me, tweaking my form, and encouraging me.
It’s not a competitive, cut throat environment - everyone does their own thing while supporting those around them. The workouts are structured and varied. The gym is spacious, clean, and has all the equipment needed to train, as well as tools to help you maximize on your movements even if you need to modify them. Having turned my focus to strength training (hello 59!), I’m really happy to have found JES!

I've had such a great experience at Joint Effort Strength—it's truly a gem in the community. The coaches, Jordan and Randy, are incredibly knowledgeable and bring out the best in each client, no matter their fitness level or limitations. Whether your goal is to build muscle, stay active, or simply keep your body moving and healthy, they have the expertise to guide you safely and effectively.
The space itself is welcoming and supportive, with options for both one-on-one training and small group classes. What really sets this gym apart is the emotional intelligence the coaches bring to each session. They meet you exactly where you are and help you grow stronger, both physically and mentally, at your own pace.
If you're looking for a safe, motivating environment with top-notch coaching, this is the place.

I have ALWAYS had an outstanding experience with Joint Effort Strength LLC! I've worked with the trainers for 10 years. The ownership team truly cares about their clients and goes above and beyond to ensure every visit is positive and productive. Their facilities are top-notch — clean, well-equipped, and welcoming, creating the perfect environment for achieving fitness goals. What really stood out to me was their dedication to customer success. They are knowledgeable, friendly, and genuinely invested in helping each person reach their full potential. I highly recommend Joint Effort Strength LLC to anyone looking for a professional, supportive, and results-driven fitness community!

Jordan and Randy have created an outstanding environment and culture. And all of the members are so kind and supportive. Since reading and eating ice cream don’t make me stronger, Joint Effort is the next best option.

I’m not a “gym girlie” by any stretch of the imagination, and I was so intimidated to try JES when a friend invited me, but the worry was for nothing. I have LOVED my time at this gym - Jordan and Randy are so kind and knowledgable. It’s like having a personal trainer in a group setting. It’s such a kind, welcoming community, and I couldn’t recommend it enough!

The BEST place to work out and get personalized attention. But also the CLEANEST gym you will ever step foot in!! These guys are serious with small group classes or individualized attention. Either way you will achieve your goals and have fun doing it.

I've been coming to Joint Effort Strength for 5 months now and having NEVER been a committed work-out person... I'm totally converted now. Jordan and Randy have cultivated an environment that I truly look forward to showing up in! Everyone I've met has been so friendly and it's actually a joy to walk in seeing smiling faces who are happy to see you. From someone who knows literally nothing about weight lifting or strength training, they make it SO approachable and help you every step of the way. They're constantly watching my form and assisting with moves so that I'm safe...but also challenge me when they know I could be doing way better! Thanks to Jordan & Randy for this space!

Jordan and Randy are the best. Jordan has been my trainer for 10 years and he’s stuck with me for at least 20 more. They are both attentive during the classes to make sure you are doing things correctly to build strength and avoid injury. They have created a fun, supportive, and welcoming community at the gym. You won’t find better people or a better gym if you are serious about being stronger.

Looking forward to going to a gym was never something I thought I would say haha. But as someone who has 4 young kids and is trying to prioritize my own strength and health too-- this place has been such a godsend! Everyone is literally SO nice and helpful, and Jordan really helps you learn the different exercises without making you feel like dumb or out of place. I came in having no idea what I'm doing, but after just a few weeks I'm already feeling stronger and truly look forward to going! Thank you guys!!

Their coaching is top-notch, with every workout thoughtfully tailored to meet individual needs—whether you’re new to strength training or a seasoned athlete. They focus not just on building strength but also on proper form and injury prevention, which gives me a lot of confidence.
If you want a gym that challenges you, helps you grow, and treats you like family, I can’t recommend Joint Effort Strength enough!

Jordan and Randy are two of the best trainers in the Richmond area. They listen to their clients, design scalable workouts to suit everyone's abilities, and actively coach every session to make sure you get the most from your workout without getting injured. They are constantly updating their gym to make sure they have a a huge variety of training options in a comfortable environment. The clients develop friendships and a camaraderie that is unmatched at any other gym I've joined. Whether it's small group training or private sessions, it is definitely worth the drive out to Goochland. Give Joint Effort Strength a try - you won't regret it!

Jordan and Randy have planted a friendly, accommodating, and non-apprehensive work out environment here in the very accessible Manakin Sabot area. A much more personal experience than the typical corporate gyms.
They do not push you past your limits, focus on proper form, they provide feedback when it’s necessary, and have developed a daily workout regimen that ANYONE can jump into and change their life with. It allows autonomy and a comfortable routine to be built with relative ease. They provide the how, you provide yourself.
With that mindset at the forefront of their practices, the fellow gym goers are a beautiful blend of people that are united around one common goal. To be more healthy!
These guys and their clients are the best - I would absolutely recommend you get in contact to join up.

Highly recommend Joint Effort Strength! The coaches are very knowledgeable and take their time to make sure you understand and can perform the strength exercises safely and effectively. I have seen a huge difference in my overall strength which has led to improvements in my sports and decrease in injury. I also know that as I age, this strength routine will pay off in my overall health. Joint Effort is like a family - we laugh and enjoy each other’s company - which makes it stress free!

I feel so lucky to have found this amazing place! It is the first time in my life that I have found a gym that supports my strength training goals in a group setting and provides custom adjustments for my specific injuries. Jordan & Randy are incredible trainers with so much experience and guidance to offer. They are always scanning & monitoring the room to ensure we are using proper form. The daily program is never rushed and you take the time you need to ensure the exercises are done correctly. On top of the excellent service, I love the people who attend the gym - it's like working out with family. I love seeing everyone in the morning and supporting one another as we grow in our health journeys. Since working out in this gym, I have had compliments on much stronger I look and that's a first for me! I am grateful to have found this gym!
