“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!“

“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 can’t believe someone would actually give this place less than a five star review.
I’ve been in El Sobrante resident my whole life and this Club has been the most awesome exercise club I’ve ever been to.
They’ve made it through recession. They made it through Covid. Busted their butts, keeping everything clean and up-to-date. They have done a lot of updates, but you have to be a member for quite a while to understand what they actually do.
With that said it’s plain and simple.
If you don’t want an awesome weight room.
If you don’t want a swimming pool
If you don’t want a hot tub
If you don’t want a bocce ball court.
If you don’t want a tennis court
If you don’t want a sauna
If you don’t want a steam room
If you don’t want to take a shower and use their soap and all their amenities.
If you don’t want a private area that holds events and has barbecues at times.
If you don’t want access to trainers.
Then it’s clear go somewhere else.
I would give this place more than five stars if I could Bruce and staff do everything they can’t keep it up And do a very nice job at it. This is an awesome business. You get what you pay for..
Oh, and one more thing yes they do have a contract and you sign it when you sign up. They automatically take it out of your bank account. If you want to cancel the contract yes there is a fee however, if you want to put it on pause. There’s a very small fee until you want to come back or till contract runs out .. Thank you, Lake Ridge.
I think for what you get their pricing is very fair considering the cost of insurances and the cost of running a business nowadays. Once again, thank you Lake Ridge appreciate the Nice and clean place to come visit“

“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.“

“Awesome place that I took my kids to introduce them the Jiu-Jitsu. Easy to find location, and the coaches and staff their are super friendly and welcoming. I am signing up both of my son's in the next two weeks!!!“

“I worked with Jonathan for months. He really helped me learn how to activate and use my muscles correctly. In doing so, has cut down on my fairly regular pain and fatigue sitting all day as well as safely pursuing my new fitness hobbies. He noticed things that I never even mentioned, but knew felt “off.” I never thought I’d work out with a trainer, and only did so at the recommendation of my boyfriend who also saw him. Jonathan is kind, thoughtful, and knowledgeable. He is not a stereotypical bro that I admittedly feared.“

“What I really love about F 45 are the coaches. Whitney and Jackson will correct your form so you actually feel your muscles working. Billy will bring enthusiasm and perfect form. Kirsten (the owner) is equally good. Schedule is: resistance day on Tuesday and Thursday and Sundays; hybrid day on Monday, Friday and Saturday and a cardio day on Wednesday. I have seen moms bring in their kids to read and play in the bean bag area while they work out; also they bring their dogs(!!) and tether them by the door. I’m hoping to do the same myself. They encourage you a lot and they help you get into really good shape. This place is totally worth the $45 a week unlimited membership.“

This supportive atmosphere makes it a lot easier to stick with your fitness goals.Overall, if you're looking for a top-notch fitness experience on Long Island, Strong Island Fitness LLC is the place to be. I highly recommend it!“

“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.“

“Get Bent is my favorite gym in the East Bay! The coaches/owners Jason and Pela truly care about the community and your development as a lifter. They host the best events and have options for everyone including classes for beginners as well as private coaching for advanced powerlifters. Check it out!“

“JORDAN IS AWESOME. One of the best personal trainers and coaches I've ever worked with. He understands deeply how muscles work with each other, and builds you a program that addresses your unique muscle imbalances. I've enjoyed working with him for the past year, and plan to continue.“

“The gym is always clean, well-organized, and usually not overcrowded. I love that I can come in at whatever time works for my schedule . The staff is friendly, welcoming, and always willing to help out or answer questions, which makes the atmosphere feel supportive rather than intimidating. It's also a nice touch that the members are respectful and keep the space tidy. Overall, it's the perfect place to get a solid workout in--convenient, reliable, and community-oriented.“

“Forma Gym has excellent workout classes with outstanding instructors. Wide variation of classes, Yoga, TRX, Bar, Spin Cycling, Band, Balance, etc. Staff is friendly, cleaning staff does excellent job with classiness.“

“After extensive shoulder surgery, the team at Albany PT brought me back to health. Their patience and experience helped me to navigate the challenges that arose over the six-month rehabilitation. The front office staff were unfailingly kind and calm and supported my scheduling needs. I am very grateful to Albany PT, and especially Elayne and Ann Michelle, for helping me to achieve a fully recovery.“

“I have been going to Truve for classes since 2017 and I remain a loyal fan. Classes I have taken include TRX, dance, various iterations of Bootcamp and HIIT. The instructors are now friends after all this time. Come and check it out“

9Round kicks all the excuses out! I've been going for 6+ months now and will keep coming back.“

“One of the best workouts I’ve had in years. The balance between cardio and strength is nearly perfect, and the movements are thoughtfully designed for intermediate to advanced fitness levels. The class moves at a fast pace, but it’s very approachable since each workout offers both regressions and progressions, making it accessible no matter where you’re starting from. On top of that, the community is incredibly welcoming and supportive. Highly recommend!“

“Pinpoint provides the most personalized training I've ever experienced, and I've worked with a lot of trainers. I always feel so cared for and they're always teaching me new ways to improve my training. I've learned so much about how to strengthen my body that I'm literally a brand new woman!!! Thanks Pinpoint!!“

“I love this place. For myself I have become so much stronger in a great and welcoming environment. The people! The community! It's a special place, it truly is. You're here to get stronger and do that in the midst of wonderful people who will support you all the way. And they mean what they say. Always! I love that.“

“Rob is an excellent PT. He is a high performing athlete himself so I feel he has a more hands on and practical experience than other PTs when working with you. He is also very well educated in PT methods and approaches. The studio is well located and very clean and comfortable. Highly recommended.“

“Calling Alison a fitness instructor or personal trainer isn't doing her justice. She's more like a fitness guru. Her scope of knowledge is vast and deep, encompassing an expertise in many training methods, injury rehab, and nutrition. She will take the time to fully understand where you are in your fitness narrative and figure out how to help you meet your goals. Even her group classes really accommodate the needs and levels of each individual. I've taken HIIT classes and large group pilates classes elsewhere and the quality of her instruction is on a completely different level. Before working with Alison, I had been feeling held back by injuries that were brought on by age and an imbalanced training routine. Working with her has helped me overcome that and feel empowered. She has a wonderful combination of being practical, challenging, and compassionate. She does a great job of cultivating community and connection in her group classes, which makes for a truly fun and motivating atmosphere. She's also a genuinely caring person who works hard to build up not just the people around her but Oakland as a whole.“

“Working with Carlos was great! He guided me through an intense yet timely and safe workout. He was engaged throughout the duration of the visit with great reminders and cues for each exercise, or when my form started to dip. If you are looking for a tough/intense training session but are on the go, this 30 minute train until failure safely model will give you that experience and Carlos is the right person to guide you through it.“

“Highly recommend TNT! I came in intimidated by strength training, and now it's a core part of my weekly routine. Eric and Rikko are incredibly knowledgeable, encouraging, and genuinely fun to train with. The community is wonderful too — every time I'm in the gym, the vibe is supportive and positive. I also travel a lot, and they've been great about staying flexible, even doing virtual sessions when I'm on the road. Training with them has made a real difference in my overall fitness, mental health, and even my running and pickleball.“

“I honestly was very skeptical and anxious about joining this gym knowing the way Oakland is. But to my surprise, it has a very pleasant atmosphere without any loud obnoxious activity and the equipment is well maintained. There seems to be no loud music at all which is great. It also is very clean, which matters a lot when it comes to joining a gym. The parking lot is very safe and clean, which is very pleasing so I don’t have to worry about any theft or break-ins. Overall it is a very nice and safe gym. I give huge appreciation to the owner and the manager for Making this gym very welcoming and pleasant for everyone.
I just hope it continues to stay this way.“
