My training experience at Hess Fitness & Athletic Performance has been nothing but professional and enjoyable. The knowledge and guidance provided to me by Jere Hess has been above and beyond any other strength and conditioning environment I have ever found myself in. This guidance has allowed me to make steady progress towards my goals despite working around a chronic knee injury and collegiate soccer schedule. It is amazing to see what a holistic approach to training paired with world-class coaching can do. Aside from this, the gym is loaded with equipment that is tough to find in other places. The gym is always clean and houses a great community of members creating an enjoyable training environment. I highly recommend Hess Fitness & Athletic Performance to anyone who is looking to improve in their sport, work on their fitness goals, or simply improve their day-to-day life through health and wellness.

This gym has an extremely positive and welcoming culture, the equipment is outstanding, and the staff is very friendly. Jere is incredibly knowledgeable and truly cares about his clients. His background as a Physical Therapist allows him to provide a level of programming that is hard to find. He has helped me fix a nagging back issue, while increasing my strength with phenomenal workouts and programming. I would highly recommend this gym to anyone looking to improve their quality of life.

The Hess team was super on top of all the variables with my knee injury recovery. The manual work, programming, and expertise was spot on, 10/10 would recommend.

Hess fitness has been instrumental in helping my daughter return to play after 2 surgeries for a complete ACL tear and cyclops lesion. Anyone who has had ACL surgery knows how hard it is to get back muscle and strength in the injured leg.PT alone was not enough . Our orthopedic surgeon recommended Hess and we are grateful definitely 100% recommend

Hess Fitness is a great gym with welcoming staff. Lauren at the front desk is kind and gets you set up with day or week passes quick. Jere, the owner, also remembers everyone that comes through and is extremely knowledgeable on lifting and personal training. The gym has unit equipment that gives it its physical therapy / powerlifting gym feel. The cost is also better than Lancaster Crunch because the annual fee for Crunch (even for monthly) is $69.99 which pays for two weeks of Hess and is well worth it! Keep up the positive workout environment Jere!

Jere, Mike and the entire team at Hess Fitness have been nothing short of exceptional in treating and working with my son Alex. The level of professionalism, attentive care, knowledge, and constant positivity has shined throughout the entire treatment plan and has provided Alex a clear path to return to college soccer. Thank you Jere!

When I first came to Hess Fitness and Performance, I could barely walk after tearing my quad. I was frustrated, unsure if I’d ever get back to playing football the way I used to. From the moment I walked through their doors, the team at Hess took me in, built a personalized rehab and strength program, and gave me the tools and support I needed to rebuild myself the right way. Thanks to their expert guidance, I’ve gained a tremendous amount of strength and mobility, and I’m now not only back on the field but performing better than ever. Their knowledge, attention to detail, and real care for their athletes is on another level. If you're serious about recovering and getting stronger — whether it’s for life or for your sport — there's no better place than Hess Fitness and Performance.

Hess Fitness & Athletic Performance is without a doubt the best private fitness facility in Lancaster. Over my years of lifting and working out I’ve visited many world class gyms and Hess stacks up with the best of them. The gym has state of the art equipment you cannot get anywhere else and new additions are always being added. The owner Jere Hess is unbelievable passionate about this business that he will go above and beyond to ensure that all members have everything they need to achieve their goals. In addition, Jere is a world class trainer and true professional in the realm of physical therapy and sports performance. I’ve been a member of this gym since it first opened December, 2022 and it continues to expand and set itself apart as a premier facility. If you compete in collegiate, high school or recreational sports like football, baseball, track & field, powerlifting, bodybuilding, lacrosse etc. or are into general fitness, this is the place to be if you want to improve.

I started at Hess Fitness and Athletic Performance in March after my patella tendon reconstruction surgery. Jere was extremely knowledgeable about my injury, and provided the support and guidance I needed to return to running/sport. Thanks to their expertise and support, I’m not just back to where I was before surgery—I’m better. Highly recommend!
