Trainers near South Pasadena

“I have never been a gym person, or a workout person. However, in 2021, I received a medical diagnosis that required an extensive surgery. A friend of mine recommended that I hire a personal trainer to work on my core strength to help with my recovery from surgery. I did some research and selected Jessica Smith, with SmithBuilt Fitness. She customized my workouts for me. She made them challenging, but not so challenging that I wanted to quit. She tolerated my snarky sense of humor and gives it right back to me. My surgery had an average recovery time of 6 weeks. I was out and about after one week and returned to work 3 weeks after surgery. 3 years later, I still see her 3 times a week. She has helped me make working out a regular part of my life and I'm much healthier because of that.“

“Over the last couple of years, I’ve made some amazing progress with my weight loss, but I was hitting a wall in my development. That’s when I got the help of Matt @ Seriously Strong Training in St. Pete. With Matt’s guidance, I’ve been able to push through and really start lifting heavier weights and building muscle. The facility is clean, and all the trainers are friendly. I highly recommend this place if you’re looking for help or guidance to get started, or just a push to get over the hump.“

“This place deserves way more reviews Mel is awesome I learned a lot of new stuff. The 8AM-9PM saturday beach workout is epic and a great way as an out of towner to see what the community is like outside of bars /shops etc. highly recommended!!“

“Highly recommend checking out Suda Fit. They have everything you need in order to achieve your goals. Very clean and friendly environment! Thank you Sam!!“

“I joined The Exercise Coach in April 2023 with the goal to lose weight and tone my body. In two years, I was down three pants sizes (and am close to being down another size). It would have been quicker if I had changed my diet at the same time I started exercising. It took me about nine months to realize that exercising alone wouldn’t get me to my goal. It didn’t take long for me to feel stronger, which came in handy when I moved in 2025. I am also less winded when I walk up a flight of stairs. I pay for the one on one coaching where a coach creates a workout plan for me. The Seminole facility is clean and easy to access with plenty of parking. The coaches are encouraging and never give you a hard time if you have a bad workout. I get a full body workout twice a week plus I get to choose focus areas to work on (thighs, arms, abs, etc.). What I love the most is that the workout is only 20 minutes!“

“My husband and I went on vacation for two weeks. He was lucky enough to find this gym across the street. Loved the place and the people! Thank you so much!“

Very clean facility and atmosphere.“

“Highly recommend, especially for golfers!!I've been training with Full Torque Fitness on and off for about 4 years now, and I love it so much! The training staff are so knowledgeable, and they have really helped me work out on the weaknesses in my body to help strengthen my golf game. My main goal is to not hurt after playing 18 not only have, they helped me achieve that goal with their training, but they've also helped me increase my swing, speed and drive distance. I feel healthier and happier than ever before and highly recommend them to any golfer, or someone looking to improve their overall health and fitness. Thanks so much FTF!!“

“Love this gym! I've only been going a few weeks and can already tell a difference. Can't believe I drove past so many times before actually trying it. It's tough for beginners but the trainers and instructors are all very helpful with learning the proper techniques, proper form and keeping the proper pace. Very happy with the results so far and can't wait to keep transforming my body with Studio Physique!“

“With Never Settle Fitness, you not only get support from Nate and Larissa for your fitness and nutrition needs, you also become family!“

“Bill our new custodian manager is excellent great asset to LA fitness he really cares about the cleanliness deserves all excellent reviews and never had such a excellent cleaner“

“A gym that's not like any other. I've been a part of Iron Belle going on a few years now and this group of women are not like any other. They are strong, dedicated and know how to have fun even in the struggle. The coaches there are more than just coaches. They're mentors, trainers, guides and above all, friends. They are always looking out for you. From checking your form in the gym to making sure you're getting to your car safe. It's just truly a great gym. But don't expect to go soft there. The workouts will absolutely kick your butt and challenge you. And they are always throwing in more challenges. You're guaranteed to see results if you go here. Definitely recommend!!“

“?️?️?️ HUUUUUGE shoutout to Elyse Howard and her brilliant practice, Massage NERD Integrative Health!!! ?? I posted on FB yesterday looking for a massage therapist with an immediate opening. I WAS IN SO MUCH PAIN, Y’ALL!!! ?? Elyse didn’t have any openings, but being the passionate and compassionate woman she is, she reached out anyway and offered to get me in AFTER HOURS. ?? Not only that, but she arranged for her associate, Alexis Cruz to stay to work on my friend Hannah as well. I can honestly tell you…I have NEVER had someone work on my body like that! ???‍? Recognizing that I needed much more than a massage, she worked her magic on my entire body, getting several ribs AND my hips back in place where they needed to be to alleviate the torture I was experiencing. I don’t know exactly what she did, but it was exactly what I needed. I left there virtually PAIN FREE, which I haven’t experienced in a looooong time! FROM ONE SESSION!!! ??? If you are hurting, even if you don’t know why (or even if you think you do) ??‍♀️‍➡️ RUN ? WALK ??‍♀️‍➡️to Elyse’s page to book an appointment. I promise you will NOT regret it! Not only that, but we all hung around after just chatting it up, and I can tell you, the energy in that office is magical. ✨????‍♀️?✨ Elyse’s passion for what she does shines through every person in and corner of her office. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!“

“I stopped in tonight because I was shopping in the Tyrone mall and saw this location across the street and decided to try it out. I was blown away at how nice the facilities are and loved how sweet and passionate about fitness Katie was! Im seriously considering this location to be my main gym!“

“WOW! Ed is GREAT!I was in town for a work event (I'm from Texas) and I called about a drop in rate. Ed impressed me well before I walked in. He was thorough and HUMAN on the phone. He asked me personal questions to assess my fitness level and enthusiastically told me all about his gym. This man is PASSIONATE about his work.When I arrived, he was warm and welcoming. The studio is immaculate. He trains in small groups so I wasn't lost in a crowd of people. I received personalized instruction, guidance and feedback.Honestly it was one of the best classes I have ever been to. He helped me reach a new level in my Pilates journey that I gratefully brought back home with me.I think we need to plan another trip to this area just so I can come take another class! 5 stars all around! Thank you, Ed!If you're local to this area and considering Pilates, this is the place to go! If you're dropping in, don't hesitate to give him a call! SO worth it!“

“Started boot camp classes after I met Jake. It's like your regular boot camp classes but smaller and better classes. surprisingly inexpensive. Signed up to come back.“

“Professional and knowledgeable. Takes the time to get you a personalized program. No games no gimmick like a lot of trainers looking to make a buck…“

“I highly recommend Kristie if you’re considering hypnotherapy! I’ve had several sessions with different practitioners and my session with Kristie was by far my favorite! I felt completely comfortable with her immediately, and the effects of our session lasted for weeks after. Even after just one session I’m amazed at how I felt. Her voice is very soothing and I was able to stay very present the entire time. Thanks again Kristie!“

“This has been such a phenomenal experience that has greatly helped me. From Kevin, the CEO, Abby, Tammy and my instructor Geoffrey, they're caring and compassionate nature has really improved my life and I have been the many programs, I've never been more mentally clear and sound and this just this just goes to show that this program is by far the best of them all. Boley has provided me so much both mentally and physically, it nurtured me back to mental and physical health in ways that haven't been done in decades. I'm so grateful to be here and I cherish every day and I have such a complete new outlook on life and a new attitude that I have not had. Thank you so much for all that you have done for me, Boley, you not only save my life but gave me a completely new perspective in the most positive way possible. ??“
