I started going to this gym by taking personal classes with Anthony. After a year of training with…read morehim, I built my confidence (and stamina) enough to sign up for Leo's strength and conditioning course. Five years later, I married Colin--a fellow iron warehouse weightlifter. Now we have a baby, and I'm trying to find time to get back to the gym. Even though we live in Castro Valley, we try to find time to go to Iron Warehouse because it's worth it for the community. Leo does an amazing job of uplifting people that want to get into shape--and stay in shape! Truly, he creates a community in this little garage gym. It's the kind of place where people wave hello to each other as they arrive. You get out what you put in. Get ready to sweat. :)

This place is phenomenal! I'm doing personal training here with Michael Truong and this guy knows…read morewhat he's doing. I was able to have a consultation with him to discuss my current abilities/limitations and my goals, and he designed a personalized program for me to achieve success. His credentials are on full display through his extensive knowledge on proper form, mechanics, and motion of the body. He is not intimidating, but will motivate you to give 110%. Also, his payment plans are reasonable and won't burn a hole in your wallet. Michael pushes me to be the best I can be and I have no doubt that with his support I will be able to exceed my goals. I am a big fan of the open layout here. I don't feel cramped at all and feel completely comfortable/confident with the space they provide. They also have an abundance of equipment/tools for you to not only accomplish your own fitness goals, but to explore new ones as well. There are plenty of amenities and programs they offer for your to explore; however, I have yet to experience them so my review is limited in that regard. Ultimately, this is is a wonderful facility to repeatedly lift heavy things and put them back down, and I recommend you come check it out.

But Truong is an expert and caters diet and exercises to what your body needs, knowing the perfect amount to push you to becoming your best self. In addition to his training, he's also just a cool guy to talk with in between sets. The sooner you sign up for his program, the sooner you can start working towards your ideal body!!

I'm so glad I took the leap and decided to join Moxie! I was previously a member when it was D's…read moreFitness, and after being away from the gym for quite a while, I wasn't sure what to expect. What I love most is that Moxie is a women-only gym. Even when it's busy, it never feels overcrowded or overwhelming. The gym has lots of updated machines and equipment, and it's always clean and well-maintained. The staff are incredibly friendly, welcoming, and make you feel comfortable from the moment you walk in. A special shoutout to Cassandra! She seems to know everyone by name, which really speaks to how dedicated and personable she is. She always takes the time to greet members and genuinely helps create a warm, welcoming atmosphere. Thank you, Moxie, for making it such a positive place to get a work out in. I'm so happy to be back!

It's an ok gym, pretty clean for the most part with a variety of equipment but weights are not well…read moreorganized and the equipment there is visibly outdated. It would be great to see some newer equipment and additions like a Smith machine or hip thrust machine. My sister and I had an uncomfortable experience when we visited together. A trainer asked us to swipe in separately, assuming we were trying to share a membership. The way we were approached didn't feel very welcoming or respectful. It's also frustrating to see the owners opening a new Pilates studio while this location still needs updates. And honestly, for a women's-only gym, it's surprising there's no childcare option. I think that would make a big difference for many members. I prepaid for an annual membership and honestly unsure if I will renew when the time comes.

And more than 30 inches over all. Yo is thoughtful in her training, she takes time to understand what is needed and how she can best help with getting her clients to their goals.

She truly expects you to put the work in! but does it all with our best interests at heart. I am so thankful for Yo, she is the BEST trainer and a Great! person.

The no-class-time model is incredibly efficient for a busy schedule; I never have to stress about a clock, I just show up and get to work. What makes this place truly special, however, is the warm and inclusive atmosphere: A Personal Touch: From the moment you walk in, you're greeted by name. There is a genuine culture of kindness where members cheer each other on through every round. Celebrating Milestones: One of my favorite parts is how we celebrate each other's progress. Whether it's a 100-workout milestone or a 500-workout achievement, the trainers and members make sure your hard work is recognized. Expert Coaching: The trainers are the perfect blend of professional and encouraging. They provide expert technical guidance while ensuring you feel motivated to push past your limits.

I would like to express my dissatisfaction with my experience at 24 Hour Fitness. During my visits,…read moreI observed what appeared to be inconsistent treatment of certain members by management, which contributed to an environment that felt less welcoming and inclusive than expected. Additionally, the facility did not appear to be maintained to an acceptable standard. The gym was frequently dusty, and equipment, including dumbbells, was often left unattended throughout workout areas. This lack of organization created a cluttered appearance and raised potential safety concerns. Overall, cleanliness and facility upkeep did not seem to receive adequate attention.  I expect a fitness center to provide a clean, safe, and professional environment for all patrons. Unfortunately, the condition of the facility, combined with concerns regarding member treatment, fell short of those expectations. I encourage corporate management to review these concerns and take appropriate steps to improve both facility maintenance and the overall member experience.

I'm keeping myself anonymous as I have witnessed first hand at a different studio the disrespect I've received over a critical "complaint" by staff. First and foremost Coach Erika and Coach Michael are incredible coaches. Hayward is extremely lucky to have Coach Erika here. Strength and attitude shows every-time she is behind the mic and her music slaps. Coach Michael is so incredibly focused on the members and corrects incorrect form to avoid injuries which is not seen in many OTF coaches often. He has saved me from a ton of back pain!! He is sadly not at the front desk anymore but Francisco is always a light to see not only was he helpful at the front desk but he is the same on the mic. WAY TO GO FRANCISCO! Valerie who is one of the girls at the front desk is also such a joy! Her kindness and incredible humor is the best pre workout you can get here. I don't take the early morning classes as much anymore but again such a joy to see as the first person you see walking in. Now here is my "critical complaint" the music in the afternoon is obnoxiously explicit in the lobby. I have never been to a group fitness class where when I walk in the first thing I hear is the f bomb and repeated uses of the n word. Very inappropriate. Garbages in both the lobby and the bathroom can be disgustingly full on the weekends and the afternoon. I would sometimes have to park near the plazas garbage to throw away my Celsius can or pre workout just because I cannot even stand looking at that garbage in the studio. I have sent emails regarding freezes and I would have to wait several days, longest time was 2 weeks to get an email response by a manager or assistant manager. Sometimes the freezes don't even get set up as I got charged for the month that I was suppose to be on freeze. I have noticed that they have gotten new managers, maybe retraining should be in order as the "assistant manager" does not act like one. Not very friendly or approachable, gives bland answers when asked questions and does not really have the spirit when it comes to a place like OTF and trust me I have been to multiple. The last straw was when I had asked the "manager" about unfreezing and the month that I was suppose to unfreeze never happened. I have decided to just stay back until my membership unfroze again. I have been going to my orangetheory classes regularly again here at Hayward since I had been going to the Alameda studio since my freeze and I try to make my schedule work to only make it in the mornings when it comes to Hayward. OTF Hayward is a charm but it needs to get its shine back.
