About John Francis Certified Personal Trainer. licensed pta.

After 27+ years helping people recover from injury as a Physical Therapist Assistant, John Francis built Francis Fitness to bridge the gap between rehab and long-term strength.

John Francis worked as a Physical Therapist Assistant at Southern Tier Physical Therapy in Binghamton, NY,  helping hundreds of patients recover from orthopedic injuries, sports trauma, and debilitating back and neck conditions. He watched people fight to get their lives back. He helped them do it.

But John always knew there was more he could offer. The people who recovered fastest weren't just the ones who did their PT exercises, they were the ones who stayed active, built real strength, and developed a sustainable relationship with movement. That gap between rehab and long-term fitness? That's exactly where Francis Fitness was born.

Today, John blends the precision of physical therapy with the energy of personalized coaching — helping busy adults and older adults not just recover, but truly thrive. In-studio in Binghamton, or online with clients nationwide.
