Allentown native Evan Howard has plenty on his plate to celebrate. He is a proud Penn State alumnus, having received his degree in kinesiology in 2013. From earning his certification to train in high school to pursuing his Doctorate in Physical Therapy, this young business professional has remained constant as a personal trainer, for a few good reasons.
This January, Howard celebrates his second anniversary as the owner of the Lehigh Valley's Best Gym that houses the Best Trainers, as voted by the readers of Lehigh Valley Style in 2017. In just a short time, his facility has grown to include an elite team offering top-tier services in personal training, nutritional counseling and massage therapy. Word-of-mouth referrals drive the business—nearly 200 clients are helped on a daily basis inside and outside of his facility.
Howard's goal with Forward Thinking Fitness (FTF) was to shake things up in the area. He wanted to change the culture with a team that is just as passionate to help others achieve success as he is. His approach called out the competition to offer better to their own clients and challenged them to compete with the client-focused, results-oriented approach Howard takes at FTF. After eight years in the industry, he knew it was time to offer Lehigh Valley residents the comprehensive program they wanted on terms theydeserved—their own.
Clients enjoy no contracts, no bogus fees and no hassle at Howard's facility. “Just results,” he proclaims. His award-winning team's goal is to do whatever is necessary so that their clients can become the best version of themselves. There's nothing but positive vibes, high-quality standards and a seamless experience that has changed the lives of those ready to commit to themselves. The FTF community is motivating, inspiring and downright lifesaving, thanks to the constant support that clients and staff provide to each other.
If there was ever a low-pressure opportunity for life-transforming change, Forward Thinking Fitness may have the answer. Howard is so confident in his facility, he offers a 30-day satisfaction guarantee to all of his potential clients. Clients push past limits on their own terms, with the help of some of the most qualified professionals in the area.
