I had been suffering from low back pain, weakness of my right leg, and tightness in my right glute. I weighed 15lbs more than I wanted to and turned to Yelp for help. That's where I found Marcus. He is upbeat, positive, and flexible when it comes to workout schedules and locations. He designs routines that fit my goals, keeps me engaged, and challenges me without discouraging me! He is a genuine & kind person, and I feel great about myself after each session. I lost those pesky pounds and have kept them off for over a year now. He has helped tremendously with regaining the strength in my legs & back. I now have the confidence to tackle long hikes, knowing I have the strength in my legs to climb up & down the trails around my home & Tahoe.

I have exceeded some goals (3 minute plank) and am looking forward to the next benchmarks! Marcus is extremely knowledgeable, he puts a thoughtful plan into each workout. He mixes it up so you don't get bored. And as your goals change and your ability increases, he changes your workouts. He is always willing to try the latest thing I saw on Instagram for me, even the ones he's pretty sure won't work! I really enjoy my workouts with Marcus. He makes it fun and challenging and produces solid results I did not get with other programs. Marcus is also great at working within my schedule, and he's always super courteous to everyone in my gym! If you're looking for a fantastic trainer, I highly recommend Marcus!!

She's incredibly knowledgeable, encouraging, and knows exactly how to challenge you while still making every session enjoyable.

One of the things I appreciated most was how personalized the experience felt. It was clear that my progress mattered, and Jamie celebrated every win right alongside me. If you're looking for a place with experienced trainers who truly care about their clients, I would absolutely recommend giving them a try. I'm grateful for everything I learned during my time here and appreciate the positive experience from start to finish.

The workouts are very structured and organized, the gym is very clean and is equipped with all the necessary equipment for exercise. You can actually attend in person or you have an option to exercise remotely. You have many coaching plans that you can choose from and you get follow up calls with updates on your progress along with nutrition recommendation. I had a big body transformation in just few months and still working on it with the help of Heather's motivation and coaching technique. I would definitely recommend Renov8 fitness to anybody who is looking for transformation and improving their overall well being.

I found Heather and Renov8 Fitness when I googled OCR training gyms in my area after I ran my first…read moreSpartan Sprint and realized I was woefully lacking in upper body strength and in areas I didn't even have a name for. I had already signed up for multiple races this year, and knew I needed help. After my initial consultation, I decided to sign up for a custom plan. The first step was a body blueprint, where you go in and she takes a bunch of measurements and has you do a bunch of movements. Honestly? I was kind of skeptical about the usefulness of the blueprint. I thought it was mostly a marketing scheme or something. Boy, was I wrong! Heather takes what she observes during the blueprint about the unique way your body moves and the problem areas and uses that information to create your workouts. Some concrete examples: during my first workout in person with Heather, she told me to try to keep my knees tracking the same direction as my toes while doing a lunge. I found it damn near impossible. My knees were wobbling all over the place and I had never even noticed until I tried to fix it! However, it's now been about a month, and my knees are much more stable. And it's not because I've been doing a bazillion lunges. There are some exercises in my workouts that I've never seen before that she said are for stability and mobility. (It's not immediately obvious what the hell they're for. For the first couple weeks, there were definitely times when I thought, 'what the hell am I doing right now?') But they fix what is wrong! Also, there are ankle mobility exercises that I didn't initially see the point in, but I've noticed that when I trail run, my ankles no longer feel like they're going to give out at any moment. It's kind of fascinating to watch (and feel) the differences. The blueprint WORKS because Heather is an expert and knows how to analyze the data and how to work with it. Speaking of running: I freaking hated it. I didn't see the appeal and couldn't understand why people did it. I thought there were plenty of more fun ways to get a workout. However, because I'm trying to do these races, I knew I needed to practice running at some point. I tried to self-motivate for around 6 months (!) and didn't run once. Not a single time. Now, I'm running 3 times a week. And it's not because I'm super motivated or anything like that. It's because of the spreadsheet. There's this shared spreadsheet where Heather puts in what the plan is, day by day, for the week, and then in the next column, you put what you actually did. It's actually a powerful motivator! There will be mornings when all I want to do is go back to sleep, and then I'll think of that damn blank slot on the spreadsheet, and it gets me out of bed. I know there are people who are very good at self-motivating. Good for you. Must be nice lol. I am NOT one of those people. However, the system that Heather and Renov8 have with the spreadsheet is surprisingly effective! I still hate running about 80 percent of the time, but that other 20 percent? Makes up for all of it! I have a pretty unpredictable schedule, and honestly? If Heather can work with my schedule, she can work with anybody's. That's what I love about it. It's completely tailored to me and MY goals. And she's only ever a text message away! (I've literally texted asking for recommendations for a good sunscreen that won't sweat off.) I've had a personal trainer in the past, and it was NOTHING like this. This is personalized training the way it SHOULD be. The training that we all long for but never seem to find. Renov8 is exceeding my expectations. Hell, it's exceeding my hopes.

I instantly was hooked!!! It is so nice going to the gym every day not trying to come up with a workout plan of what area I want to work out for the day. Bryan always has a great game plan; he keeps track of what areas of your body you've already trained for the week and already has a full workout set up and ready to go when you get there. He has so much great advice not only on working out, but on nutrition as well. I will send him messages after the gym or on weekends and ask him if I could eat a certain food with my diet plan or drink a certain beverage and he responds right away and always has something positive to reply with like what I can replace it with instead. He truly wants to make you the best you possible while making it fun at the same time. You have to give him a try!

Coach B talked me into trying out his Body Sculpting program. I jokingly told him I wanted to have really big guns. He convinced me it was possible. I started going to his coaching sessions a few times a week, and immediately had more energy, better posture, and OMG--muscle definition!!! He gave me instruction on what to eat and how often, so that I didn't feel hungry all the time. Coach B is motivating, but he really doesn't have to be. His Body Sculpting program is SO EASY and gets such FAST results, that you'd have to be kind of an idiot to not be excited about it. I can open jars without the help of hot water for the first time in my life! LOL! Rather than working one-on-one like a standard personal trainer, he does coaching sessions, where several people might be working out all at the same time. This has been really great for me; I've met lots of neat people, and I'm no longer bored with exercise! My schedule is insane, but Coach B's unique method has me in and out of the gym in less than 30 minutes, just a few times a week. Thanks, Coach B!
