About Conquer Fitness

Conquer Fitness is a doctor-led personal training company specializing in helping men and women over 40 lose weight, build strength, increase energy, and eliminate pain — safely and sustainably.

Founded by Dr. John Dougherty, Doctor of Physical Therapy, Conquer Fitness was built to bridge the gap between traditional gyms and physical therapy. Most fitness programs are not designed for adults 40+, especially those dealing with past injuries, joint pain, or years of inconsistent training. We created a better solution.

Our semi-private personal training model delivers individualized programming in a supportive, high-accountability environment. Every client receives a customized plan tailored to their goals, fitness level, and physical history — whether they want to lose 20+ pounds, rebuild strength after injury, or simply feel like themselves again.

Across our locations, Conquer Fitness has earned 600+ five-star reviews and helped thousands of adults transform their health, confidence, and quality of life.

We believe fitness should be:
• Personalized, not generic
• Challenging, but safe
• Results-driven, but sustainable
• Community-based, not intimidating

Our mission is simple: help adults over 40 become the strongest, healthiest, most confident version of themselves — and build a team of growth-minded professionals committed to delivering world-class coaching.

As we expand into new markets, we remain focused on one standard: elite coaching, measurable results, and an unmatched client experience.

Stronger. Healthier. Pain-Free.
That’s the Conquer standard.
