Charged my wife after she told the instructor that she wasn't going to use the service after the free trial. Then the instructor told her that it's out of her hands and she would need to contact the billing department; then the billing department said she "should have canceled through the app" (even though my wife didn't have access to the app because she didn't want to continue the service) and when said she could send their conversation thread the billing department just ended the session. So then my wife disputed the charges through her bank and now they are threatening to send it to collections. All because my wife decided to not use there service. read more

DO NOT RECOMMED!!! The worst Customer Service I have ever encountered. There are ABSOLUTELY NO CANCELATIONS not even after the trial period. I tried to cancel the same day that I signed up and they refused. Reporting them to the BBB. I looked the business up in NC and sent the Officers a letter on the type of services they are providing. Please report them https://www.sosnc.gov/online_services/search/Business_Registration_Results read more

Horrible customer service!!! They don't care about your Situation, no cancellations! They can cancel classes, change trainers or move the workout location. If what they change doesn't fit with what you have been doing or are willing to do....THEY DONT CARE! They just want their money! Just keep paying or they will go the collections route. They can cancel we can't! STAY AWAY FROM THIS WORKOUT GROUP!!! You will be sorry if you don't! read more

When do I begin?! I started Camp Gladiator a year and a half ago in an attempt to lose weight. Little did I know that I would not only lose MORE WEIGHT than I had originally hoped for, but I also gained energy, muscle and more importantly a community of amazing individuals who constantly love on each other! The trainers truly care about their campers. Well, most of them, anyways. I would frequent Michelle, Mark, Amber, Shamus and Renee's camps the most because this crew seems to always go above and beyond to help and support their campers. CG calls themselves a family and is true to that title! I am forever grateful that I stumbled upon this group FULL of amazing individuals! Whether you're looking for motivation to lose weight or just searching for a fun fitness group to join, CG is the place for you! read more

Started CG in January with a free month trial. It was the hardest workout I had done in my life, but my trainer was patient, encouraging, and challenging. I am the oldest in any group, but I have slowly seen my strength and endurance improve with two to three workouts a week and am holding my own with the younger stronger campers. There are several options in my area when I am unable to attend my regular group or want additional workouts. Now, eight months and 84 check-ins later, I am stronger and more confident than I have ever been. My trainer Wade is the best and I am forever grateful for the encouragement I receive from him and from the members of our early morning workout group. read more

Workouts were ok I called in to sign up for a membership and planned to sign the paperwork the following week when I came in for bootcamp, but decided to go with another bootcamp group. I called and emailed CG, but they refused to cancel me, even though I never signed to finalize the contract and I never returned. Now these MFs placed a derogatory mark on my credit report. DO NOT USE CG! read more

Worst Experience, inconsiderate management. They keep changing trainers, locations and there are no adequate safety measures in place while working out in open public areas like parking lots, parks etc. The trainer was made aware of the health condition in March 2020 and she requested for a freeze on account and refunds, instead of cancelling and issuing the refund the CG team kept on charging my account with a 'freeze amount' and then full payments. They threatened to send for collections if I don't pay up despite poor service quality. CG cancelled my trainer's contract soon after and they did not even inform. They disregarded the safety advice which was in effect in our state and country. I am yet to receive the refund of $370 and confirmation of cancellation. They continue to cite contract fine print while the fault was entirely at their end. read more

Customer service is at an all time low. I've tried for 4 days to put a freeze on my account because I just had surgery and have not been able to speak to anyone. The hold disconnects after 20 minutes and when they say they close at 6pm CT that's are. I called at 5:36 pm CT and it said they were closed. Alli and Jeff need to figure it out. Another camper has been trying for a year to cancel because her Primary trainer won't help her. ​ read more

Great workout. It's never the same. There's classes at different times so when my schedule changes I have no issue going to a class.

The work outs were great, the trainer was also great. My reason for leaving was very simple. During workout session one evening, a healthy young (28) year old man collapsed only 15 minutes into the workout session. The CG trainer thought it was heat exhaustion, during the first 10-15 minutes or so the CG trainer tried to comfort the young man. Only after 15 minutes or so, it became apparent from others in the group that he was not breathing. By that time someone in the group called 911 during the 15-20 minute wait, the CG trainer could not or would not perform CPR, no one in the group knew CPR, the EMS supervisor was on seen before the ambulance. The EMS crew performed CPR for over (20) minutes. Later that night I learned that this young (28) year man who was very healthy, was on business trip to Houston, TX from Austin, TX. Played football at Texas Tech, played soccer and seemed very fit to me. It was also said that he had an enlarged heart or heart attack, either one not sure. My issues with CG, THE TRAINER HAD NO IDEA OF HOW TO PERFORM FIRST AID, YOU WORK OUT IN A PARKING LOT WITH NO DEFIBRILLATOR. Now if you read the contract your on your own like most gyms and trainers state. But think about it, if you have an unknown health condition, your putting your life in someone hands who is not qualified to respond in an emergency situation if one arises. That night the trainer took everyone's names, phone numbers and email address down in case they needed statements. If your going to do GC, go get a complete physical from your doctor and also inform your doctor that these workouts are extreme to people who are unfit. read more

Im going to have to give this company a big thumbs down.DO NOT SIGN UP. I've never dealt with such rude, hostile people in my entire life until i signed up with Camp Gladiator. They are nothing but money hungry and only care about who youre bringing in to make them more money. After situations came up and I could no longer pay for CG, I tried to buy out my 12 month contract, but of course they tried to talk me out of it by putting my account on a freeze and charging me a $5 fee, of course without notifying me. I'm really disappointed cause I really did want to like this company but wow. Fix your costumer service and you might be able to fix the bad rep you guys have made for your self. Any one who asks me about this company, I guarantee to steer them in a different direction and save their money and time. read more

I find that camp gladiators is a company that is not for the people but money. If an individual feels that CG is not for them or other circumstances came up and they want out. You cannot cancel a contract that you never signed in the first place. You have to wait til After the 12 month is paid before you can non renew your contract. If you advise you have no job no money so sad. You pay and also have to pay the insufficient bank charges I do not recommend CG to anybody I did have a great trainer she was very compassionate and caring my family hasn't been since March 2018. So I am paying for 3 people just giving money away and not being able to pay other bills and or get medication that I need. read more

First, let me say the trainers are the best. The workouts are great. The company, however, not so much. I signed up for the nutritional coaching. First, it started late. I tried to cancel put off by the terms not being met. I was told I could not cancel. So, I successfully challenged the charges with my credit card. When I called to make sure I would not move month to month I was told I had to pay or I would continue to be charged month to month regardless that they did not meet their terms. I have not had one coaching session and I have not heard from my coach in over a month. I asked them if they even cared about the quality of service. They said they had not heard of any concerns in the quality. I pointed out I was reporting a problem now. They offered no solution. CG you win this one and others please beware! read more

Love love love my trainers Kathy, Michelle, and stephanie in the Bellaire/Meyerland area of Houston. I've been to several different trainers over Houston but these three seem to be the most invested in their campers health than any other trainers. They really do support and motivate more than I felt with other trainers. Love the camps, especially the later times like 6:30 and 7:15pm. The app needs work though. I have had to freeze my account for medical issues, and customer services has always been incredibly helpful. read more

Just finished my first CG camp and I loved it! I started going with a friend in the evenings to Spotts Park, but decided I liked the early morning option better and now regularly attend the Whole Foods Montrose morning camp. It's definitely a challenge to drag myself out of bed at 4:45, but I have yet to regret it! Both trainers that I've worked with, Roz and Shamus, are awesome. I'm definitely out of shape and they have been extremely positive and encouraging. The work outs are different every day, but consistently focused around strengthening your core muscle groups. There are people from every fitness level at the camp, so you won't stick out (too much) if you're a newbie like me. You can go as much as you want every week and the monthly fee when you commit to 6 camps of $69 is less than most decent gym memberships, and you're getting much more personalized attention. I highly recommend CG looking to work out outside with a great group of people. read more

I completed my first session at Spotts Park this past Saturday. This is really great workout!! Dustin and Jared were great trainers who kept it fun and interesting. Although the workout is tough, it definitely allows everyone to go at their own pace. The trainers give personal attention wherever it is needed. Camp Gladiator has locations all over Houston with a number of morning and evening camps. I signed up and can't wait to get back. read more

I absolutely LOVED my two week pass at the Pearland location. Dustin was an amazing instructor. He was so supportive and encouraging!!! Even when I was sick, he texted to check on me. Honestly, that sold me!!! He'd only met me a couple of times, but still had concern about my total well being. I wish everyone could experience CG at least once. To me, the workouts incorporate everything from crossfit, cardio, yoga, etc. The rain or shine policy is great because it allows you to get a great workout in regardless to the outdoor elements. The plethora of locations throughout the city and surrounding areas makes for an easy, accessible and convenient workout!!! The sense of community and teamwork is another aspect of CG that sold me. Although everyone isn't on the same fitness level, everyone has the same workout. There are high fives and "great job" flying around constantly throughout the 60 mins. All in all, I'm thankful to have found them. read more

I've been going to Camp Gladiator for over a yr now. I must say, the trainers keep a light fun environment while ensuring you get the best (and sorest) work out as possible. When looking for a work out all I wanted was not to be yelled out, but rather to have the positive encouragement and sense of community that Camp Gladiator provides through it's trainers. Over the past year, and with the support of the amazing trainers in several locations, I've been able to lose a good 30lbs, learn about nutrition, make some pretty awesome friends, and live a healthier lifestyle. Every location in Houston has competent and talented trainers, each with their own twist to a rigorous and fulfilling work out. Come to camp with the same trainers, find a new work out routine every time! read more

My workouts with Camp Gladiator were okay. However, I got pregnant during my year and I am a high risk pregnancy due to an incompetent cervix. I understood that I had to pay so I continued to pay even though I was not using the service. At the end of my contract, I called to cancel. After waiting over 30 minutes for someone to take my call, I was told that I couldn't cancel because my payment was about to come out. Ok, fine. Please cancel it starting next month. They will not do it. They are making me call back and wait again to speak to someone to cancel the contract. I'm sure that there will be some other excuse when that time comes. I do not recommend Camp Gladiator at all and will not encourage anyone that I know to sign up for their services. read more

ABSOLUTELY HORRIBLE COMPANY!!! Do not waste your time and make sure you DO NOT sign the contract. You will get locked in and the customer service is horrible. They are all extremely rude and will not let you cancel at any time. I had a medical emergency and they are so careless. Do not waste your time. There are a million other fitness options! No one should have to deal with this company and the awful morals they stand by. I wish Yelp offered negative stars just for this company. read more

Trainers are super good , but customer service / billing services is awful . I paid full 12 months membership , but no one notify me although your membership expired, I MUST make the phone CALL to cancel it ( Email is not acceptable !) Now they charge me month by month , the only way I can cancel my membership is pay off another two months ( I never even attend after membership expired ). The customer service keep saying this is the contract I signed ! GREAT! This is called misleading statement ! If you want join the camp , the trainers and workout buddies are awesome ; however, be careful what you sign for! read more

I've been attending various CG locations for a few years now. Every workout is different, ample locations in and around the Houston Area. I typically attend camps in Katy area, but have been to camps in Houston and Cypress as well. Always a location I can attend if a work out is wanted. I've never been motivated to hit the gym on my own. The group setting is what drives me to keep going. No matter the fitness level as the camps are "go at your own pace." Yes, the Trainers are there to ensure proper form and to push you to go harder. That's the environment that works for me. All I can suggest is to try it for yourself. They always have different types of promotions running and have the "bring a buddy week" for the person wanting to try it out. read more

Beware of their billing practices, they will not cancel, will resign you up for a year anytime you call in. They will charge your credit card and auto renew without approval and then not allow you to cancel, even when not used for a year. read more

Camp Gladiator , is really a piece of work. They signed me up for camp and then told me it was ok to start when I had time. They now tell me that I only had access in May and June when I was traveling and kids year end stuff. There contract has no term or explanation and they don't send a confirmation of terms. They sent a confirmation email that even had the incorrect period. I reviewed their e contract and it doesn't state this program or even the date that I signed. The money is not the issue, but the whole bait and switch. I obviously have paid for help, but this really pissed me off. They told me it's fine to send to my attorney , because they are switching to four week with no end of camp scan. My fear is that this kind of bait and switch is not acceptable. I hate when organizations have no rules or maybe they are not running sophisticated or really tight ships ; then flex contractual muscle with all their screw ups. The thing is that I even just asked for refund and lady who answered acted as if she was in right. Read contract , and it has a weak you can be denied, but you can't just blanket not offer product because you choose not too. A refund or my 6 week program that I was explained. read more

I would leave NO stars if I could. They cancelled 2 classes I signed up for. I could not make any other class work for me and they STILL wouldn't let me out of the contract. This is a horrible company to deal with. If a class is cancelled, that I signed a contract for, than the contract should be null and voided. PERIOD!!! There are plenty of other places to go to. read more

I have been going to Camp Gladiator workouts for 5 months now and love it. The trainers setup a comprehensive workout and customize the exercises for your individual needs. They have a 10th anniversary sale going on until 10pm CT for $10 for month of September. Sign up for a month of unlimited workouts for only $10 deal here: bit.ly/TheDealOfTheDecade read more

My wife and I have been working out with CG for about 3 months and we love it. There are classes easy to find no matter where you are and the instructors make an hour workout fly by. We have seen great results and anyone of any shape or size and participate and have a good time. We love it., read more

Camp Gladiator offers a work out to match the connotation that the name gives. The work out you will get here no matter what your current state of physical fitness will push you to the limit! The good thing is that all I needed was the determination of just one tiny mustard seed and drag my sore achy limbs back to camp, and I wasn't let down. You will find your limit to be sooooo much higher than before and a few buddies that miss you when your gone. What i love about Camp gladiator is that there is no guilt! Don't get me wrong there is a faction of fitness-nuts (that eat organic well balanced 6 meals a day) present but there are equal amounts of people that eat on the 'office regimen' ( take out lunch specials/McDonald's breakfast). Camp Gladiator doesn't push anything on you. I felt rather as I continued to go to camp that I was making different ( healthier) choices on my own because I noticed the difference it gave me during the day and in work outs. When you want the information the campers and trainers have it in abundance! I have moved due to changing employment circumstances. I know you guys feel me with this tumultuous economy! LOL So i wasn't able to re-enroll due to inconsistent schedule. Things have resettled and I plan to re-up and bring my sister! I love that I can afford it although I'm not rolling in dough (YET!!). What takes the cake is when i bring people they get a new camper discount and i get a credit too! All that being said I would recommend this camp for anyone (pre-teen and up) that wants to get to the next level in their fitness life and knows that they would benefit from accountability and motivation. I suggest getting up early and going to the early bird sessions if you're like me and prefer smaller groups ( less than 20 people) but with the way i see this camp growing big groups may become unavoidable! read more

My boyfriend and I go to an evening class and love love love it. We've both worked out a lot over the years, mostly at gyms. He's a runner and I taught spinning. We find this camp very challenging and love it. We are sore afterward but know we are getting stronger and in better shape. We just started going this Summer and don't plan on stopping. Try it out! read more

I love camp Gladiator..I've been going for 7 months..there are several convenient locations for me and the workouts are amazing I always feel great when I leave! read more

I have been a member of camp gladiator for 6 camps and am still enjoying it. The sessions are challenging to meet all your workout needs while having fun. What other boot camp has happy hours, hiking trips, and ski trips. The trainers are all very knowledgable and know just when to push you to expect more of yourself. It's also nice to see familiar faces when running hills and cheering each other on. I recommend everyone to come out and try to find their inner Gladiator. read more

Finally got all the kinks worked out and I'm loving CG. I haven't been in a while for various reasons but I can't wait to go back!

Be sure you understand their contract is completely one-sided and that they don't care much their clients on a personal level. After Hurricane Harvey I was put in a tight financial spot and they refused to allow me to cancel my membership. This is no reflection on the trainers, however. Corporate will screw you in any way they can. Take notice that the Better Business Bureau has them graded as "F". read more

I was so excited and ready to try out this 4 week camp with my girlfriends but the first day of class our location and time had been cancelled without any prior notice. We waited at the specified location for over 30 minutes not knowing it had been cancelled permanently. We called and texted the trainer Hernan and never received a response. We finally got ahold of the area manager who told us that, that location had been cancelled and there were no other locations in our area with 7:15pm classes. The only reason we were able to sign up was because of the specific time and they waited for the of to cancel and not let us know. And because of terms of the contract we cannot receive a refund but if they knew ahead of time why even have that location as an option? I feel like I got set up. They didn't even try to remedy the situation. Instead theyi said they have hundreds of locations and for me to pick one. read more

Camp Gladiator is such an awesome group of trainers and contenders. I get such an amazing workout each time I go. I have such a busy schedule and I was worried that I would not be able to fit in 3-4 days a week, but CG has such a great variety of camps, that I never have any problems fitting in a workout. Since, I have joined 3 months ago I have had amazing results and I'm so glad to be a part of CG!! I love the motivation! read more

I usually play basketball and run, but a friend had me out for buddy week and after Camp Gladiator I felt like I hadn't worked out in months. Actually I felt a lot of things in a lot of places I hadn't in years.The workouts are intense in a good way, but they never feels stale like you might get in a box gym. One day we ran hills, did circuits, had mat rotations and hat jug relays. The next day we had hand weights, lunges, tic tac toe relays and ab circuits. This is all in two days. They really provide a nice mix of exercises and activities that'll keep you interested and your muscles guessing, not to mention, happy happy hour after "happy hour." The team atmosphere and charismatic instructors (what up Roz and Jared) will keep you pushing yourself no matter what fitness level you're at. The campers are cool and the instructors genuinely care. It's definitely the most fun physical beating I've ever taken; way better than old school basketball conditioning. CG, what what! read more

CG is an AMAZING workout! It has locations that are close and convenient and the time options are great. I am able to get some one one one personal training as well a community feeling of teamwork. They change the routines up a bit and always deliver a challenging workout. I have recommended to friends and will continue to read more

I have been going to Camp Gladiator for 6 months now. It has been a great and wonderful experience. I love how there are numerous camps around town in different locations and times. This is very beneficial for people with hectic schedules. I enjoy how every workout is different than the last one it helps with the monotonous repetitiveness of working out. Coming to camp in my mind is more of a social experience then a work out. The trainers go out of their way to make you feel comfortable. read more

Trainers are great however I disagree with many of their business practices. -There is no way to get out of the year contract. I can get out of a cell phone contract/cable contract/gym membership by paying an early cancellation fee but CG refuses to work with me at all. Sometimes unexpected things happen and you have unexpected expenses and the luxuries you once enjoyed need to be cut (ex, cable, cellphones, and $140/month fitness classes). -You can live with someone for 25 years, be common law and not qualify for the spouse discount because you don't have a marriage license. -You and your spouse/significant other can not freeze at the same time even though you are going on the same trips because freezes are based on what day they bill you. This can be 2-3 weeks apart. So your freeze might start on the 1st of the month and your partners on the 15th. read more
