    Lifting heavy at the old gym. Can you believe I am deadlifting at nearly my body weight?!
    Lauren R.

    Brian Review When my wife first suggested we get a personal trainer, I was skeptical about the potential costs associated. However, here we are 7 months later and we couldn't be happier. We have shifted our view of personal training to be an investment in our health and longevity. From the moment we met Brian he was kind, approachable, and knowledgeable. His level of education and devotion to learning the latest kinesiology research is apparent in every session we have had with him. Since teaching us proper form, we have not sustained any injuries from working out... something that was common in our previous fitness endeavors. Brian has been helpful in teaching us to recognize when we need to challenge ourselves and when we have reached our limits. We are so grateful for him and everything he's done for us. He recently moved to his own location that is clean and outfitted with brand new equipment, such a plus during these trying times! It is also worth mentioning that Brian has incorporated safe protocols throughout the pandemic.

    Two months in, weight loss, improved mobility and conditioning, increased strength overall. Excited for the future!

    My name is Erwin, I'm 26 years old and this is my testimonial. I was looking to get into shape as I haven't exercised since high school. 8 years later, I started drinking every week and eating poorly. I was ashamed, almost disgusted by what I saw in the mirror and decided to make a change for the better. I met with Brian at his private gym where we spoke from pricing to his values. I was impressed not only with his knowledge but his academic accolades. I trusted the process and slowly but surely, saw improvement. I felt more confident about myself and I'm truly thankful for the experience. I would absolutely recommend him to anyone. He changed my life and I'm sure he can change yours but you have to be willing to fight for it.

    I've been training with Brian for over a year now and how I wish I could have met him earlier in my life. Prior to Brian, I've been working out on my own on and off for the past 10+ years with improper forms and routines. As a result of this, my body had lingering aches and soreness. I have been so impressed by Brian's extensive knowledge of proper form, body alignment, exercises, and recovery work. He designs routines for each session that are challenging but never impossible. I'm so thankful to Brian for helping me feel like I'm in my 20's again. He's personable, easy to talk to and always has an awesome attitude. I highly recommend him if you are looking to kickstart your fitness lifestyle.

    The grind bring the shine

    Brian is an excellent trainer who takes a science based, data driven approach to his programs. If you are willing to put in the work, are diligent about sticking to your workouts and maintain a healthy diet; Brian will put you in the best position for success. I can not say enough about the positive results that Brian has helped me achieve. Reaching my fitness goals is now a routine event and we are constantly moving the bar further to challenge me. Brian will challenge you not only physically but also mentally... many lessons which are directly translatable to the real world. If you are looking to not only transform your body but also your mind and life then pick up the phone and give Brian a call you will not regret it.

    Brian is the best trainer in the 626!

Her management style really shows in the culture of the gym. She's empathetic, supportive, and genuinely cares about everyone who walks in, but she also knows how to push you when you need it. You always feel seen and motivated, not judged. Coach Mark is extremely knowledgeable and brings a different kind of support. He's calm, solid, and always there when you need guidance or reassurance. You can tell he really knows his stuff and wants you to succeed. Coach Ryan and Coach Aaron are awesome at helping you build new skill sets and pushing you toward your maximum potential. They're great at breaking things down, helping you improve technique, and showing you ways to level up that you didn't even realize were possible. I went to a regular gym for about 15 years and never saw real results like I have here. The difference is the environment. People hold you accountable, the coaches care, and you're constantly encouraged to be better. What's funny is I've driven by this gym for years and never really thought about it. With everything being online now and reading reviews, I'm honestly grateful I finally walked in. This place works, and the community makes all the difference. Highly recommend WoPro Fitness if you're serious about real results and being part of a supportive, motivating environment.

    Updated Review (3+ Years as a Member)…read more I've been going to this Planet Fitness for over three years now and overall it has been a solid place to work out. One of the biggest improvements they have made is lowering the music volume. It used to be extremely loud, but it has been adjusted to a much more reasonable level, which makes the environment way better if you are not wearing noise canceling headphones. They have also added a number of machines that are great for members who take their workouts a little more seriously. It is nice to see the equipment selection expand beyond the basics. The gym does get a little packed during peak hours, but that is pretty normal for any gym. Despite that, there are generally enough machines to get through a workout. The only one that always seems to be busy is the fly machine. Another positive is that equipment gets repaired pretty quickly if something breaks, which I really appreciate. The staff has always been chill and easy to deal with. Overall it is a good club. Not perfect, but well maintained and consistently improving.

    This location of Planet Fitness is in Duarte, in the same plaza as a Smart and Final. I was…read moreactually in the plaza for a Club Pilates class and found it convenient to walk over and continue my work out here. This is definitely the smallest location I've been to in terms of square footage and equipment, but it didn't feel too crowded. I feel like equipment is limited for weightlifting machines, but I was here for cardio so there were sufficient machines for that purpose. Also just as an observation, the cardio machines here do not have individual tv screens compared to other locations. They do have large tv screens with a few channels to watch. Plenty of clean up stations for you to wipe down the machines you use. Planet Fitness frowns upon the grunting and bro-intimidation, but this location had some dudes grunting and being loud and obnoxious with their work out. I would have liked if staff said something to them. I would only come back here if I'm already at Club Pilates and I wanted to further my work out. If I was going to a Planet Fitness for a full work out, I would want to go to a location with more equipment so I don't have to wait on others for the machines I like.

They know how to push without being overly pushy but I think they roughly adapt to each person as much as they can. There's a great emphasis on form for all the weightlifting motions. Didn't think CrossFit would be the fix to all my joint and overuse issues but it's absolutely working. It's getting me back into the all the other sports I used to do. Definitely looking forward to staying on the journey with them but just wanted to give them a great rating. It's a fun and welcoming community also. I had this notion that a CrossFit cult would be pushy because I did have a few previous experiences of studios/gyms being like that but this place is absolutely wonderful.

However before getting to the facility we were in touch with the owner, but the follow-up wasn't clear. We were supposed to be sent waivers and that didn't happen. We had to go up to one of the trainers so sign a waiver and no one was able to tell us the pricing which was strange. Part of me felt like we were being excluded for some reason and we ended up going somewhere else. The workout itself was great and the facility was clean and organized. I just won't be returning personally, but others should give it a try. It looks like they may be looking for a specific type of person to join and that wasn't us.

The facility is generally clean, the equipment is well maintained, and I've genuinely enjoyed working out here. On 02/13/2026 at 7:00 AM, while I was in the women's locker room, the cleaning staff announced that the locker room would be closed for one hour for cleaning. I completely understand and support maintaining a clean facility. Since I needed to be at work by 8:30 AM, I adjusted my workout to allow time for a quick shower before leaving at 8:20 AM. However, the locker room was still far from complete at 8:00 AM and again at 8:15 AM. Several members, including myself, were waiting. There are no alternative women's restrooms available in the facility, so those of us who rely on showering before work were significantly impacted. I ultimately had to step around the barricade simply to retrieve my belongings from my locker so I could leave on time (I did not use the shower or restroom). When members asked the front desk how much longer the closure would last, we were told it would remain closed until 9:00 AM, which differed from the original "one hour" announcement. Additionally, during this time, the tone from one of the cleaning staff members toward members retrieving their belongings felt tense. Several other members mentioned they have experienced similar interactions in the past when trying to access lockers during extended cleaning periods. I appreciate that cleanliness is a priority. For members who work out early before heading to work, it may be helpful to know that locker room cleaning during peak morning hours can extend beyond the initially stated timeframe. Clear and consistent communication about exact cleaning schedules and expected duration would likely help members better plan their workouts and avoid unnecessary frustration.
