TESTIMONIAL REVIEW FOR THE HIT FIT GYM IN APOPKA…read more So, I saw a post on Facebook saying they were looking for 20 people to join a weight loss challenge at this gym in Apopka, FL called the HIT FIT GYM. I looked into what this gym was all about and thought to myself that I really don't know if I can even do those exercises, as I weighed at the time 290 lbs. So, yes, I am morbidly obese, as the doctors call me. Therefore, I was very skeptical about the HIT FIT GYM and my capabilities in actually being able to do the full challenge. I am very happy that I did not listen to my head or gut and went against everything I have ever known and step into an uncomfortable area in my life, that being the HIT FIT GYM. I had, what they call, gym anxiety before I walked into that door; I mean, what 290 lb. woman wouldn't, right? Well, after my consultation, that all went away pretty much. I met Nicole, the owner, who is very sweet and explained everything perfectly; she made me feel so welcomed. Then, I met one of the trainers, Sabrina, a little ball of "excited to make you sweat" fire; she is awesome! I explained that I have a really bad knee and can't really do lunges, jumping or running without it making my knee hurt even worse than it already does, and that I have had surgery on it and it just made it worse, rather than better. She was, and still is, amazing in giving me modifications on the exercises that have things I can't do just yet because of my weight vs. my knee. Now, in time when I lose more weight, I will be able to do all the exercises as they are shown on the videos. Sabrina is also very good at pushing you to keep going and motivated. Also, this gym is like family; if you can go at the same time every day, you will pretty much see the same faces, and the best thing is we make each other feel good by encouraging one another to keep going and not give up. That is another thing I love about this gym. One lady had asked me how much I had lost in my first month of being there, and I told her I had lost 10 pounds and she smiled at me and said I could tell, you are looking good and doing great, keep it up! That really made me feel good. So, if you are unsure about being a bigger person and doing the HIIT workouts, don't be; Sabrina and all the other trainers are there to help you, and if there is something you can't physically do, they will give you an exercise that you can do. You never have to worry about being embarrassed about not being able to do this or that exercise because you will be doing some sort of an exercise, and that is all that really matters. This gym keeps you moving and burning the calories and building your endurance. When I first started, I couldn't finish all 10 zones the first couple of times I went and I thought for sure that I was going to pass out; but now, only 2 short months later, I am finishing all 10 zones and then I do some more zones. I am burning over 400 to 500 calories per workout, depending on how I am feeling that day. I have gone from a size 24 to a size 18 in jeans and went from 290-lbs to 276-lbs. Yes, I have only lost 14-lbs, but hey I will take that. I always look at the non-scale victories in which I went down 4 sizes in my jeans, my cardio endurance has gotten way better and my bloodwork; well let's just say my doctor just about fell out of her chair when she saw it. What else is there to say other than its PROGRESS NOT PERFECTION! And it's all thanks to THE HIT FIT GYM. By Jean Jonas 11/14/19 member since 09/11/19

All of the coaches take time to truly teach, safety is always a high priority, and care for members extends beyond the walls of the gym.

I got a lot of negative exposure from people who have done this type of work out before and have said that you can strain or hurt yourself doing this kind of exercise.

From the first time I walked in I felt a sense of community and was welcomed warmly by not only the staff but other members! The coaches push you to be the best version of yourself, aim to help keep you healthy and motivated in every class and are not afraid to correct you if your form is off. Which is great because they don't want you hurting yourself. I can definitely see myself continuing to be a member for as long as I can and over the last few months have already noticed a difference in myself and what I am capable of. Plus being more toned, getting better sleep and wanting to eat healthier are just perks of working out daily I have also noticed! Thank you Orangetheory for being a great place to work out!

I began my fitness journey six months ago after noticing that over the past two years my body was…read morechanging despite little change in my daily routine. I was gaining weight even though my eating habits and lifestyle stayed the same. I realized that getting older meant I needed to make some meaningful changes. I joined Crunch because it's in my neighborhood and decided to explore personal training. I was paired with Lauren and committed to training three times a week. Lauren genuinely listened to my goals and created a program tailored specifically to help me achieve them. We've worked consistently together, and not only have I lost every pound I aimed to lose, but my body is in the best shape it's ever been. I'm stronger, have more energy, and feel mentally more positive and focused. Every workout is different, and I get excited because I never know what's in store. This variety has kept me engaged, challenged, and motivated. Even though I've now achieved my weight and fitness goals and could probably maintain them on my own, working with Lauren has become a highlight of my fitness routine and something I don't want to give up now!

Despite this, I was charged $225 weekly for 15 weeks. Since June 30, I've made countless attempts to resolve this with management, including District Manager Lawrence Lara and corporate. I've sent emails, made calls, and visited the gym multiple times. I was personally promised my refund would be processed October 1. It is now October 12, and I still have no refund or explanation. My husband's business also participates in Crunch's Corporate Membership Program, making this experience even more disappointing. Billing mistakes happen, but months of broken promises, unanswered emails, and zero accountability are unacceptable. I've given Crunch every opportunity to make this right. Unfortunately, I'm now having to pursue formal action just to get a resolution. Very disappointing customer service from a company we trusted.

I tried my best, and trained frequently, but I always felt like my trainer was frustrated and disappointed with my performance. I went there to learn a new skill and get a good workout, not be judged and humiliated! My experience PROVES that they definitely DO NOT live up to their supposed core values: "Our core values are built upon hard work and respect. We create a healthy & safe environment and mentor our clients to take personal responsibility for their results". I sure didn't feel like I was "respected" or provided with a "healthy environment". Additionally, their alleged PROMISE: "We pledge to provide you with a fitness environment that will be supportive, passionate, safe & full of integrity while promoting excellence and fitness in our community" is nothing more than words on their website that they are NOT committed to. I certainly didn't experience a "supportive" and "safe" environment, or a scintilla of "integrity". An organization's culture is created by its leadership team and when I respectfully tried to share my experience with the owner, he never even bothered to call me back. Bottom line, STAY AWAY from this place!!!
