Trainers near Southfield

“I’ve been training with Brian at A.M. Total Being Fitness for about 12 weeks so far through a hybrid program that includes both in-person every couple or few weeks and online app exercises, and it’s been an amazing experience from start to finish. Brian’s guidance, motivation, and deep knowledge have helped me stay consistent and confident throughout my fitness journey. His workouts are always well-structured, tailored to my goals, and challenging in the best way possible.

What also makes this gym stand out is the entire team. Elvis always greets everyone with a warm, friendly energy that instantly makes you feel welcome, setting up sessions, and supported. Trainers Sam and Kris also go above and beyond to create a positive, encouraging atmosphere they’re approachable, professional, and genuinely care about every client’s progress. Also the entire team at A.M. Total Being Fitness don’t just focus on the workouts they also prepares a personalized diet plan and conducts heart rate and fitness testing to understand exactly where you are physically, so you can work toward your goals safely and effectively.“

“8/4/2025 5*
I only started about a month and a half ago, but I've had experience with other boxes before, and this one takes the cake. In this past month, I've tried to meet as many coaches as I could and attended a variety of time slots to get to know the other athletes. Every one of them is good people.
Programming is awesome and challenging.
Coaches are aligned yet offer a variety of coaching styles (all of which I appreciate for different reasons), and injury prevention is shown to be a priority through both programming via thoughtful post-MetCon exercises and the coaches' quick critical thinking for scaling, empathy for knowing how we'll probably want to push ourselves further than we should, and encouragement for when we might have to do less than we want. Additionally, I'm seeing a lot of HWPO-type programming, and Mat Fraser is no-joke one of my heroes. Coaching and programming strongly exceeded my expectations. 5*
Facility is very clean and the equipment is all in good working condition.
For a smaller, local box (as opposed to those giant facility ones), I was surprised to find an AssaultRunner, SkiERG, and GHD as well as stocked showers. At least three ropes! At least two high ring pairs! Aesthetic is pretty cool to me. North and East facing windows are perfect for catching that sunrise and not baking in the evening. Facility and equipment exceeded my expectations. 4*
Classes and fitness community are great vibes.
I know that this is not entirely within the business's control, but I would be remiss not to mention the culture that they have shaped here. All the other athletes are encouraging and friendly. People seem to care about one another, and I truly felt welcomed without any judgment. From jumping between different classes at different times, both the coaches and the other athletes really make it hard for me to choose a favorite class to attend, which is really a good sign imho. Classes and fitness community greatly exceeded my expectations 5*
Extra Credit: Ethical Business Practice and Community
As much as a I am intrigued to see state-of-the-art super-facilities with all the latest tech on a massive scale, I will almost always prefer the smaller local business that both knows the community it's born in and also continuously gives back to that community. I came to this box knowing from its mission statement online that it was an inclusive space and, from its instagram, that it supports a diverse group of athletes. I later learned about how much it gives back to the community with its accessible CrossFit Kids program and donations it puts forth for the nearby school all while shaping our next generation to be upstanding empathic individuals. Additionally, as a member of the LGBTQ community, it mattered immensely to see that they still did an OUTWOD and contributed to protecting LGBTQ members and LGBTQ youth. This is a large part of why I feel safe in this gym. Core City Crossfit also offers a SoberWOD that I believe is free, and while I have not attended, I strongly believe there is immense value to this program and, to be frank, its mere existence has subconsciously already shifted my alcohol intake to much healthier habits; not even my doctor has been able to make such a noticeable difference. Bahaha! Lastly, I don't know if this gets much recognition, but this box has a monthly email newsletter that I actually read through and thoroughly enjoy. That's just a me-thing, but I love it. Ethical Business Practice and Community greatly greatly exceeded my expectations +5*
Overall 5* Thanks, y'all! <3“

“Love this gym, just need some of the new machines that are just hip thruster and hip abdication“

“This facility and the staff deserve a very high review. My wife and I have been attending for about 10 months now and our senior citizen lives are much better for it: physically, mentally, and socially.“

“Graham and his team are the best in the business. We don't realize how fortunate we are to have a facility and trainers like OmniKinetics in Michigan. Do yourself or athlete a favor and check them out.“

“Driven is awesome! Lisa is awesome! Craig, Jamie, and Andy are awesome! I might be bias.“

“Going to Hyrid Training at Strength Lab is so much more than just going to a gym class. Phil is so attentive to every person there, making sure you are using the right techniques to prevent injury.“

“I love coming to this my gym cuz the staff is very friendly. They greet you by name and make you feel welcomed. After a hard day at work it’s comforting to go to a place where most where you are trying to be your best and know that the staff cares that you had a good workout/ or had a great class workout. I truly feel like I am getting my money’s worth. You also have a nice, respectful group of people that f equestrian this gym. It’s good cameraderie. Keep up the good work Camero and LA staff.“

really cool gym good ownership recently has been super clean love this place probably the best powerlifting and general gym in troy, they got a ton if stuff

The thing that i love about this gym, is that the community here is genuine. You won’t meet as dedicated and passionate lifters at another gym in the state, the ownership doesn’t care about solely making profits, they want the gym to be friendly, functional, and a community.“

“One of my favorite locations to go to. I was only there temporary but the lady who works there (golden hair I think, always in a ponytail) is amazing!! She is one of the most sweetest person I ever met at a Planet Fitness. She literally goes up and beyond!! She deserves a pay raise!“

“FAST is great and their staff are experts in their field! After years of running, I had constant hip and lower back pain. After a thorough assessment and weekly sessions at FAST, the pain is gone! Thanks - I feel better than ever!“

“An absolutely fantastic fitness club (not a gym). The community is friendly and the equipment is state of the art.“

“As with most people I don’t really like working out. However, with the Exercise Coach I’m motivated to come twice a week to work out.
The staff - Michael, Staci and Allen, among others are absolutely the best and keep me coming back with great workouts that change after each rotation.
The strength workouts are long enough, also at the end of your routines you finish off with a quick cardio session. Making for a great 20 minute workout.
Highly recommended the Exercise Coach at the West Bloomfield location.“

“Dr Bill has been of great influence to me since December of 25’. I love that it’s an interactive experience almost 7 days an week instead of just sitting and talking in sessions once a week only to do no work in between sessions. He is very knowledgeable about mental health, spiritual practices, and physical health! Very valuable service doc offers and just overall a great guy!“

“If you've always wanted to dance, but were afraid to start, then this is definitely the place for you. I came to the Troy Dance Studio as a complete beginner and was amazed at how quickly I began to master the basic movements. The construction process is very competent, the load is evenly distributed. The result is visible after a couple of weeks! I am very pleased with my choice.“

“Eshaan is the man! You can tell he really takes care of his clients. From personal training to nutrition planning to supplement assistance, he will take great care of you (as he's done with me). Can't recommend him enough!“

“I love the atmosphere and motivation I get from Will and all the women and men who train here. He encourages you to keep going and helps you set realistic goals. I would highly recommend!“

“The Exercise Coach in Royal Oak/Birmingham is truly a game-changer for anyone looking to achieve their fitness goals efficiently. Their unique approach, which combines advanced technology with personalized strength training, sets them apart from traditional gyms.

The trainers are incredibly knowledgeable and supportive, ensuring that every workout is tailored to your fitness level and personal goals. The 20-minute sessions are perfect for anyone with a busy schedule, and despite the short duration, the results are remarkable. It’s clear they prioritize quality over quantity.

The studio is clean, well-maintained, and offers a welcoming, private atmosphere that makes you feel comfortable right away. Whether you’re new to fitness or looking for a sustainable way to stay in shape, this is the place to be.

If you’re wondering, “Is 20 minutes enough to see results?” the answer is a resounding yes! The high-tech equipment and focused exercises deliver a full-body workout that’s both effective and safe.

Highly recommend The Exercise Coach for anyone seeking a personalized, time-efficient, and results-driven fitness program.“

“John was highly recommended to me by a good friend and he has more than lived up to that recommendation. He has provided the best physical / trigger point therapy I’ve ever had. Most recently I had a flare up of lower back and glute / piriformis etc tightness, cramping combined with neuropathy from sciatic aggravation/ inflammation. He demonstrated deep knowledge of the affected muscles and nerves and great skill relieving the muscle tightness and cramping. In one session provided enormous relief to the muscle tightness and heat and aggravation of the sciatic by the next morning.“

“I can honestly say I appreciate Amor—she’s the best. At first, I was like, “There’s no way she can really stretch me out,” but listen… she is the truth. If you haven’t been yet, you definitely need to try it out. All the ladies are good, but Amor is on another level ?? West Bloomfield“

“Are you looking for big biceps? Look no further! I am a recovering triathlete who came in with tendinitis in everything and runner's knee - hoping to gain some muscle and eventually return to sport. I cannot say enough great things about the people and environment at MECA RO. Cody and Mike put up with me in the mornings for the last 3 months. They are extremely knowledgeable, caring, and compassionate (they're funny too). Everyone at MECA is cheering you on to succeed - look your best and feel your best. I would return in 1/2 a heartbeat. If you're reading this, join!!!!“

“Lots of parking and ample people. Busy but not crowded. I used the hot tub and pool mostly to decrease a flare up of pain. It worked. I will aim for4 days this week.
Ps.. The gym is equipped with plenty of equipment.Whatever you need is there.“
