Trainers near San Leandro

“I love the high intensity work out! I sweat so much and burn more calories in 30 minutes then when I was walking for an hour.“

“Ive been working out and getting trained with Teddy for about 2 months now and I definitely feel lighter. I may not see result as drastic as i imagined but I do feel better in my own body. I have more energy and i feel ready to tackle on the day after a good session. Teddy does his best to get you in at the time that fits best for you and will have long shifts yet still gives you the attention needed for your sessions! Teddy and Erica are super sweet and motivating. Teddy will push you hard because he know how much more you can give, he sees the potential in us even before we see it in ourselves. Erica is so sweet and motivational and helps balance out the environment in the gym! I definitely recommend it to anyone thinking of loosing weight or just trying to get fit! Helps with: -nutrition -good form - motivation“

“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.“

“Rob Lin is an exceptional physical therapist. Rob and his entire team are patient and welcoming, and his 1-on-1 work is phenomenal. If you have the option, I cannot recommend The Technique enough. I knew when I signed up that working with him would be an investment, and it is one I am so glad I made.

I came in with an injury that I have been struggling with for 4 months. I had been seeing another PT but I had repeated setbacks during my recovery. I was in consistent pain and I wasn’t improving.

In 3 weeks or so, Rob has gotten me to a place where I can function again and even push my physical limits. He is kind, reassuring, and his hands-on work has consistently made an obvious impact. Immediately after getting off the table, I feel less pain and improved stability that last. His work on me has allowed me to push further during session and during at-home exercises, which he’s tailored based on my feedback.

TLDR: I’ve already recommended Rob and The Technique PT to friends struggling with injuries and would urge anyone to book a free in-person consultation. Rob is amazing and I look forward to every session. I can’t thank him and his team enough.

“Just one introductory session with these folks completely shifted how I think about strength training. I love that the foundation of this work is rooted in a philosophy that emphasizes slowness, deep presence and muscle fatigue instead of number of reps. Their resistance training is designed to meet you wherever you're at and consistently challenge you to find the next edge. These folks really care about their craft and their culture really motivated me to give it my best -- highly recommend working with them!“

“I don't remember how we found Alison and Truve but I'm thrilled that we did. I'm 71 and my partner is 68 and we wanted a gym and a trainer who would work us hard but be knowledgeable and respectful of the challenges of keeping older bodies fit and strong. Alison listened carefully to our goals and concerns and set us up with Jenn. Working with Jenn is a delight - she knows her stuff and pushes me just enough. Every week she shows up with a different workout that keeps me on my toes - she's always fully present and responsive. As for the gym itself, once you've covered the basics like cleanliness and equipment quality (check and check), it's all about the vibe - are you comfortable being there or not. I've been a member of multiple gyms before and Truve is hands down the place I've most enjoyed going. Do yourself a favor and give them a try.“

“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“

“If you're thinking about joining a gym for a fantastic workout and motivating community, stop reading and go sign up with 9Round now!

-- The location is so convenient; parking has never been an issue.
-- The circuit-format is just perfect: no class times, just come in when it's good for you.
-- Workouts are 30 minutes, and that flies by.
-- Great for anyone new to kickboxing cardio (easy, fun!) with opportunity to build on those skills as you go.
-- All the trainers are great, giving notes on form and encouraging you to push yourself when they know you can. (Dave is a rockstar!)

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

“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.“

“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.“

“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.“

“I signed up to the trial while visiting a friend in Moraga and loved it! Whitney was the trainer I had the most and she was awesome. So welcoming and friendly, always making sure I was pushing myself. Together with Billy they brought the vibes and had great playlists to keep you motivated. I was there for a week and felt like I'd been part of the crew for ages. Couldn't recommend more! Such an awesome team!“

“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.“

“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.“

“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.“

“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.“

“Super fun place to train and lift. The pump classes are high energy and the powerlifting classes are supportive and informative. Really community oriented and they even have a non profit to provide free coaching to Oakland youth. Coach Jason and Pela and all the other trainers are knowledgeable and awesome to work with. Definitely recommend!“

“My go to facility... to get a great workout! Professional, clean, supportive, and helpful employees, who always point me in the right direction ( cause, I don't know what I'm doing ). Lol“

“I was a client of Powerform for about 8 months and couldn't be happier with my experience! The facilities are clean, and the supportive atmosphere kept me motivated while I was in the midst of a workout rut. What stood out to me the most was the thoughtful programming of workouts to help me reach my fitness goals.

Each session was designed to target relevant muscle groups while incorporating proper form and technique, which was crucial for my progress and reduced risk for injury. With access to a variety of strength training equipment and expertise from the coaches, I was able to significantly improve my upper body strength. I achieved my goals of increasing my bench press and completing a pull-up — something I once thought was out of reach!

Scheduling sessions was simple, and I appreciated the responsiveness of the owner, who was always available to answer questions and provide guidance. Highly recommend this gym for anyone looking to get started on or elevate their fitness journey!“

“Super fun training for my kid. Much more gender neutral than other sports with a good age spread too. Positive coaching with a good mix of fun and serious skill building. A touch of the Francophile world as well“

“I was a gym newbie who had the pleasure of working with Jason, who helped me bulk up a good 20+ pounds in the duration of our training together. I'm now more fit, energetic, motivated, and more confident and happy overall. Starting seeing results very quickly, in fact; my friends and family have noticed these changes which I couldn't be happier about.Jason is so knowledgeable in all angles of health and fitness and fosters a welcoming, accessible environment. He'll be able to work with you no matter your goals or experience level. I really appreciated him teaching me all about form and providing accommodations for some physical concerns of mine too -- eg helping navigate workouts with some tendonitis I have, and teaching me methods to deadlift comfortably with a shoulder that can sometimes act up from an injury years back. He is very proactive about preventing injury and promoting effective, tailored workouts for all.Jason has equipped his gym with truly the greatest equipment on the island and for whichever type of training you're in, you'll get his undivided attention. Effective, engaging workouts, and never a boring day! On a personal level, you will be enamored with the rapport that Jason will build with you. He develops strong connections with his clients and is an exceptional conversationalist, listener, storyteller, and has an impressively diverse taste in music. Clean, classy, ambient lighting, outrageously tasty water...invest in yourself and GIVE JASON A CALL.Mahalo!!“

“Awesome facilities and people. Great mix of family atmosphere with people training hard while being supportive.“

“So not only do I love every single employee there. The daytime manager is so amazing. I needed something done and I didn't know if they would be able to do it but they did and he went out of his way to try to help me. That's what I call Great management. They're all team players you can tell by their actions and how they do things and I would recommend that anybody wanting to do any kind of activities of working out go to planet fitness because they're awesome.Brandon is the manager and Marlay'ja & Emily aren't you in the day ship staff? They're all so wonderful if it's your first time or your millionth time working out I really really would suggest planet fitness on Hindenburg because it really is no judgment.“

“"I recently had the pleasure of taking part in a spring declutter & detox journey hosted by Gloria Kamil of Total Fitness Transformation. I must say, the experience was outstanding, the complete journey was outlined from beginning to end. This cleansing journey was the catalyst that allowed me to reconnect and develop a healthier relationship with the right foods and improve my overall health. Gloria's expertise and dedication to her clients alone with knowledge has helped me reach my desired goal. With exercise and making the right food choices I have lost a total of 22 lbs. in 2 1/2 months. Thanks Gloria“
