Owner – Misfits Fitness Johnson City Jeff Short
Misfits Fitness Johnson City was born from Jeff Short’s powerful personal journey. In 2018, a car accident left him paralyzed from the chest down – but it didn’t stop his passion for fitness. After rehab, Jeff was ready to get back to training, but finding a gym that felt inclusive and welcoming proved harder than expected. Tired of not fitting in, Jeff built his own space – one where everyone belongs, no matter their background, ability, or experience. That space became Misfits Fitness. Jeff’s mission is simple: create a gym that breaks the mold – a place where support is real, transformations happen, and nobody ever feels like they don’t belong.
