Greg Morrone
Greg Morrone is the owner of The FIT Lab. Greg is passionate about helping members of our community live longer, more fulfilling lives through consistent training and adopting habits that support a healthy lifestyle. Greg’s focus and attention while guiding all The FIT Lab members throughout their journeys prove daily how much he cares. His investment in education and maintaining best practices, as well as his commitment to professionalism, is unmatched in the Hoboken fitness community – and the industry. Greg became a certified trainer in 2001, an American Council on Exercise Certified Personal Trainer (ACE CPT) in 2008, and has acquired numerous accreditations in fitness and holistic health. With more than eighteen years of personal training experience, Greg’s client roster – ranging from celebrities, to seasoned athletes, to beginners – has been diverse. He is inspired by any individual dedicated to improving their health. He understands that everyone has a unique metabolism and body type, and strongly opposes a one-size-fits-all approach to exercise and fitness. After working as a coach in high-end private training studios and as an in-house trainer for major financial institutions in Manhattan for more than a decade, Greg (a Jersey boy at heart) wanted to bring his expertise to Hoboken, where he could improve the lives of a broader range of people. Greg’s primary mission in the fitness industry is to: 1.) Help as many people as possible improve their quality of life through sustainable exercise. 2.) Provide career opportunities and mentor as many serious fitness professionals as he can. Greg recently co-founded Unicorn Wellness LLC with Mark Fisher ( Mark Fisher Fitness). Unicorn Wellness invests and develops fitness and health franchises, which provides Greg with a bigger platform to advance his mission.
Jason Bowen
After a successful career in finance, Jason made the leap into the fitness industry when The FIT Lab launched in 2013. He’s currently the Head Trainer and devotes extensive time to the continuing education and development of our team. Jason is keenly aware of the benefits that physical fitness and a healthy lifestyle can bring to busy and stressed-out working professionals. Jason’s desire to help people started while recovering from shoulder surgery after a snowboarding injury years ago. During this time, he gained valuable insights into gaining strength, shedding excess weight WHILE resolving many common aches and pains. He uses these experiences to relate to some of the everyday struggles of our members. Jason is a very attentive coach inspired by helping members progress and achieve their goals. He uses a principle-based approach that undergoes constant editing and refinement. Jason accomplishes this by routinely reinvesting in himself through mentorships and continuing education to provide our members with the most current, advanced, and effective training methods. Jason’s knowledge and passion inspire and motivate our members during and beyond their sessions at The FIT Lab.
