Trainers near Lafayette

“On the outset, I had talked to a few different trainers, but John had a good vibe and I generally felt confident with his approach to correct form. In addition to being a highly knowledgeable trainer, he's also just a rad human! Definitely recommend giving him a call.I worked out with John 2x a week for over 6 months while easing back into shape. My goals were to gain muscle and avoid injury, and he helped me achieve both. I had a DEXA scan, measuring body fat and lean muscle, before and right at the end of our time together, and I had a pretty big improvement, which we were both stoked about.I knew I would eventually "graduate", and John set me up to be able to move forward on my own in a gym and feel more confident creating workouts for myself. He even checked in with me a few weeks later to see how I was doing and if I needed help decoding any of the machines.“

“This gym is ideal for a working person like myself who needs flexibility in when I get time to work out. I have severe knee and back issues and Vlad the owner has been kind enough to adapt every round workout. He also ensures he is giving time and attention to my form, correcting me and does the same for everyone. The gym is very clean and organized and with the workout set up, there isn't insane crowds so it's a good atmosphere for a workout.“

“Love TNT. I feel stronger and healthier ever since I joined. The trainers are all smart regarding body science and their approach emphasizes this knowledge. I feel welcomed every time I walk in the gym. They have been able to make the workout accommodate an injury I have without missing a beat. They push me to my limit and it feels great. Anyone looking for a place to workout that’s encouraging, smart, fun, and based in science, TNT is the place to be.“

“Excellent gym, clean and well-run. I don't use their trainers--mainly I do my own workout on one of their Pilates reformers--but what I see them doing with other customers looks good.“

“I moved to Walnut Creek a few months ago -- trying out different gyms -- came across Everfit and since then I incorporated the classes as part of my routine. Chris (the owner) knows what he's doing and every class is intentional. Solid split workouts through the week. He's also an athlete so for me personally I'm a fan of learning and following a training routine from someone who's been there, done that, and still doing it! An added benefit is his dog Kobe being in the mix everytime I'm there! If you're looking for a "I can't wait to workout" type of environment -- Everfit is the place to be!!!! LFG!!!!!!!!“

“After injuring my shoulder shoveling snow while in the mountains during snowpocalyose last winter, I knew it was time to get my body back in shape. Enter, Bliss Fitness and Health! From the first Rebel Recess class that I took, I have never felt more comfortable (except for the burpees!!) or more welcomed into a fitness space. The teachers are fantastic; the space is gorgeous; and most importantly after every class I feel euphoric, strong, and, dare I say, filled with bliss.“

“Jordan is exceptional at what he does. While he approaches his own work-outs more seriously than anyone else I've seen, he's very kind and patient with his clients to meet them at their edges and helps to push them to their potentials -- he's also hilariously witty! Definitely book with Jordan if you want to have fun reaching your goals with someone who genuinely cares about your progress​​​“

“Exceptional Personal Trainer - Highly Recommended!

Gil is a phenomenal trainer with an impressive depth of knowledge in fitness, nutrition, conditioning, and strength training. Every workout he designs is meticulously planned, combining exercises that are both challenging and incredibly rewarding.

He takes the time to assess where you are in your fitness journey and then motivates you to push past limits you never thought possible. Through a combination of diet and structured workouts--I lost 10-15 pounds, dropped at least a size (if not more), and achieved weightlifting milestones I never imagined. His emphasis on proper technique ensures workouts are safe and effective, minimizing the risk of injury.

The energy in Gil's group classes is always positive and motivating. He creates a fun and engaging atmosphere where we not only train hard but also have candid, insightful conversations about nutrition and overall wellness.

If you're looking for a trainer who truly cares, challenges you, and makes fitness enjoyable, Gil is the one!“

“We have been with Sensei Geoff at Mires Martial Arts for over 5 (Happy) years. Geoff was always outstanding with us and all the families we interacted with. He was always accommodating to our needs and schedules. His positive attitude with all the kids is something I have witnessed and know the kids will learn from. The atmosphere is so much fun that my kids are always happy to be there and truly enjoy learning their katas and sparring while having so much fun, a successful combo of learning and enjoying the experience. If you or your kids are contemplating a martial arts dojo, I would highly recommend Mires Martial Arts dojo.“

“Professional, friendly, knowledgeable, thoughtful. I've lost 40 pounds and lost 5 inches in my pant size over 14 months. Plus I'm in better condition from both a strength and aerobic standpoint. None of that would have been possible without Exercise Coach, San Ramon.“

“I have had hip pain for two years. I have seen chiropractors, acupuncturists, physiotherapists, sports doctors and physical therapists. It was not until I began working with Jonathan that I felt that I had the information I needed to heal. And heal I have. Jonathan listened carefully to my descriptions of pain, during the times I was not with him, as well as while working with him. Then he tried different exercises until he found the ones that were pain free but improved my mobility and my strength. I am so lucky to have found Jonathan. He is a thoughtful listener and a creative problem solver. He joins a vast knowledge of exercises with a deep well of compassion. I cannot recommend him enough.“

“I was grabbing a juice from Got Juiced and after chatting with the manager Tarrell found out he was the owner of Body Mechanix. After hearing about my struggle with back pain when lifting he offered to give me tips on my form and did an incredible stretch session that honestly left me feeling 2 inches taller! I got to meet the manager in Body Mechanix too and they were both so friendly and professional. Thanks for the kindness to someone who isn't even a member (yet) Tarrell. He's the real deal, highly recommend the staff there.“

“Came here for my first Bootcamp class via ClassPass. When I arrived, I wasn't sure if the place was actually open for business because it was boarded up on the windows. With reassurance from the owner (whose phone number was on Google), it was indeed open for business, I was excited to get moving for my Friday workout. I was introduced to the owner and other people who showed up for the class and I could tell they were regulars. The place looked pretty legit as you know I love legit gyms :-) I was asked to disinfect the bottom of my shoes as street shoes aren't allowed on the floor, since we laid on them for floor workouts. That made me feel better because I ain't tryna rest my head on a floor where people before me don't know where to walk sometimes and you don't know where they come from ahem, SF CITY STREETS!!! This was my first Bootcamp class in a long while so I was pretty thankful that Virgil (owner and trainer) allowed me to modify my workouts. It was a damn good sweat and I had great energy the rest of the day.“

“I worked with Abu for over a year and loved every minute of it. Abu is great for people of every fitness level, and taught me a lot about proper form and how to get the most out of my workouts. He will push you to get stronger, and even had some good tips on proper diet that I found to be helpful. I would highly recommend Abu to anyone, especially to those at the beginning of their fitness journeys.“

“I highly recommend Michael as a personal trainer, especially if you are older and have injuries. He is very thoughtful with his choice of routines and listens to you if you need to change things up. I am definitely on the right path with his mindful approach and encourage you to give him a try!“

“My hubby goes to this place on regular basis and he really likes their approach. I also like the fact that he has not got any injury since he switched to this place. I recently attended their women self defense training. I was able to master a few techniques within one session and effectively beat my hubby at home! Very impressed! We plan to send our daughter there once they are able to expand the facility. I think it will be great for their confidence building.“

“I am so happy to share my experience at Pinpoint, especially with the owner and trainer, Shakina. Nearly a year ago, I embarked on a journey to improve my fitness, filled with nerves and doubts about joining a gym. From the moment I stepped foot into Pinpoint, Shakina's warmth and patience dissolved those worries. Shakina's dedication to her clients is remarkable. Despite my initial fears of not measuring up to others, she made me feel welcomed and supported every step of the way. Her understanding nature and ability to tailor workouts to individual needs have been instrumental in my progress. Shakina's enthusiasm is contagious, and her encouragement pushes me to reach new heights. Not only have I grown stronger physically, but I've also gained confidence. Pinpoint has truly improved my life, and I can't recommend them enough to anyone seeking a supportive, effective, and empowering fitness experience.“

“I've been doing one-on-one training with Mike and highly recommend him. He incorporates boxing drills into strength training - and mixes it up with different techniques every week with exercises I can realistically incorporate into my daily workouts. A great full body workout!“

“Great flexible program. This is not a one size fits all program. It is catered to you and what works for you. Sheena is patient and works with you and your needs. Definitely a program to help ease anyone who wants to make healthy lifestyle changes.“

“Briana has a great setup in her garage and her workouts are tailored to your goals. I have been working out with her for almost a year now and definitely do see a positive change in my body.It’s always a fun time when I am there except when you feel sore afterwards ?Also Sophia makes the workout more enjoyable.I highly recommend signing up for a class!“

“My trainers at the perfect workout in Walnut Creek make it easy and fun to get in my weekly workouts. I appreciate their positivity and I was excited to see result with just the short yet targeted 20 min workouts. I would highly recommend you give it a try!“

“Jackie is the best trainer that I have ever met. She is very good at explaining the details of muscle activations and how to breathe through it. She is very patient and compassionate to her clients. I learned a lot from her.“

“I can't say enough about Anthony! He is a great trainer and coach, very knowledgeable and a great listener. But he is an even more wonderful person, I am lucky to have met him. My wife and I trained with him together and he is was very responsive to our limitations and our goals. This is a gym I you will look forward to going to and you will feel great after you leave. The facilities are clean, well taken care of, with relatively new equipment everywhere. I feel very fortunate to have learned about Anthony and his gym“

“I trained with TAE in 2016 and was in the best shape of my life. Rob has continued to be a wonderful resource for me as an athlete and human. Top notch facility and well rounded program. Cant say enough positive things. DO IT!“

“I’ve been working with Mac on and off over the past 8 years. He’s helped deliver the desired results I was looking for, which were weight loss, better endurance and more strength. Mac listens to my needs and any concerns then constructs a plan to achieve the results. I have lower back pain and certain activities, like running which I love, becomes harder the older I get. Mac’s put together a plan which includes strength and flexibility training to address my lower back. He’s been a tremendous help and helped alleviate much of my discomfort. He’s also helped me keep the weight off, which makes me feel good. I wouldn’t hesitate recommending Mac to my friends and family.“

“Soooo glad I found this place! Carl is great at what he does and a fantastic person too. The rest of the trainers are super friendly.“

“This is a fantastic place! First time trying a personal trainer. Dave and Kaden are excellent, and I really see results after over 6 months of working out here. They are patient, calm, and knowledgeable about all muscle groups and suggested exercises.“
