Great place to work out with part of a community…read more The trainers at EF are professional and kind. I've been working out here for three years and have experienced my transformation physically and mentally. I began fun 2019 at 225lbs and now I am at 145lbs. They coach you on nutrition alongside your program that's built for you based on your goals. I have had a full lifestyle change with the help of EF and the knowledge they share as they train you and do more than just instruct but teach. Most importantly your program is not just about reaching aesthetic goals but strengthening your muscles and joints so you can be stronger and healthier each day. I would recommend this to anyone but also to those who feel that weight loss and living healthier seems impossible as I felt. With the emotional support of the team at EF I was able To reach my goals and I continue to maintain them with the tools I have been taught.

I am truly grateful for the time spent at Effective Fitness. Ashley the owner is passionate about…read morehelping others and empowering them to make healthier lifestyle choices. I opted for the month trial for $349 of working out 2 x a week, with the unlimited cardio. Upon signing up, I was really looking forward to it, especially with regards to the nutrition coaching I anticipated receiving. This is a wonderful place to work out for those needing guidance and a boost of encouragement to begin working out. I loved the following: *foam rolling session- empowering *mobility stretches *inclusive environment *encouraging trainers- Sam, Mo, and Ashley! *nice facility *each written out program is "customized" for each person *flexible with my busy work schedule What could use improvement/suggestions: *communication- mostly done through text and last messages sent to owner were not responded to. *follow-through- was under the impression that I would be receiving weekly nutrition coaching calls and a life coaching session. We had a brief call the second week, and I did not feel guided in that area as much as I would have liked. *Would have enjoyed working out on Saturday evening /Sundays

The La Mesa location is especially impressive--it has a full gym space for bootcamps, HYROX training, WODs, and more, plus a dedicated spin room and a yoga room. Whether you're training for a specific event or just looking to get your body moving and stay consistent, NXPT has everything you need. If you want great energy, variety, and results, this is the place to be

I had been looking for Spartan prep classes and had heard all over Facebook groups that this NXPT…read moreis the place to go for this type of training classes. It's a little far from me in the South Bay but I knew I had to try it. For parking, the lot is shared with other businesses so when I got there, it was full and parked in the lot down the street. I wouldn't suggest to park in front of the NXPT if it's the games classes since we're using wall balls near cars. When I found the class on classpass for Wednesday night, the name of it was a little confusing because it said "OCR/Games/Hyrox/Deka" so I didn't really know what that meant until I showed up to the class to learn that depending on when the next event is, that is the type of training they're doing. So my class focused on the Hyrox because the Anaheim event is in five weeks. Hannibal is the trainer and he was friendly with a quick introduction and had to jump on a call before class started. I asked around to sign the waiver and got someone to help me. I wanted to make sure that didn't slow me down starting the class on time. Thankfully I do strength training and hot yoga outside of this class so I felt I could keep up but having been to new classes before, they seem to take care of newbies with just a few more instructions. I ended up figuring it out and maybe the style of this gym is no hand holding but I ended up asking other attendees in the class about the structure. Most of the moves in this class were standard but when it came to Sled, I wasn't sure in my form. I'd suggest when they get newbies in these games classes to ask them if they've done anything like this before and if not, show them the proper technique of the moves. That helps in the actual events since form matters and also prevents injuries. Overall, it was a good experience and I'll be back!

I recently joined P360 La mesa and have really enjoyed attending classes on a regular basis. The…read morecoaches are personable and friendly I feel like they do care about their clients. I enjoy the structure of the class and that coaches will demonstrate alternative exercises. The gym itself is clean and everyone does their part to keep it that way. I didn't know if I would like the whole group workout or partner but I've grown to like it. One of the perks is their water dispenser always so clean and cold at the end of a workout. Another cool feature is the performance 360 application where I can track my weight count per exercise and reps and for being only 1 month I am seeing some progress and also better energy levels. So to me it has been worth the investment I will continue to attend Try a free class and take advantage of first month deal and seek those gains!!

I've been a member at Performance 360 La Mesa for over four months now. As someone who has been…read moredoing group fitness training for a few years now at a variety of gyms, I have to say that P360 is the best gym that I have ever been to. This is the first time that I can honestly say that I have seen not only an improvement in my physique, but an overall improvement in my cardiovascular health and overall improvement in my strength and endurance. The coaches at this gym have legitimate experience in coaching. The coaches here take their work really seriously and make a serious effort to correct form during the classes, and ensure that you are performing the movement correctly. They don't mess around, and make the environment so welcoming and comfortable. P360 even gives you access to nutrition resources by their nutrition coaches. The workouts are strategically planned out, usually up to a couple weeks out in advance. Very organized, to ensure that no matter what day you go, you will be getting a legitamte workout. I love that on the app you can see what the workouts are going to be for the week and it doesn't matter which P360 location you end up being a member at, the workouts are going to be the exact same for all the locations. And if you are someone who is new to fitness, new to using the kind of weights and barbells that are used here, there's no need to be intimidated by it. There are people of ALL ages at this gym and ALL kinds of fitness levels. They make it easy to modify some of the workouts if you have some limitations. Prior to becoming a member at P360, I was going to a lot of random studios off of ClassPass. So I feel like I have a lot of group fitness gyms to compare it too. 10/10 recommend P360.

Now - The gym is always in new multiple ownership hands and has been a revolving door for owners since ~2021. Unfortunately this has caused a lot of growing pains. You can see they're trying but just keep missing the marks. The gym is typically unclean. Notifications - They will not cover all grounds... i.e. a text (that people have opted out on for a cancelled class), an instagram story post - when not everyone is on social media....etc. Hours - continuously changing & dwindling - 5am/9am/noon/430pm/530pm/sometimes a 630 could be olympic lifting, could be open gym, could not be a class time... depends on the season and day of the week, for ~$160/month Coaches - Most are friendly & enthusiastic with a knowledgable drive to help. Although once you've been around the gym long enough, most stop coaching you. They become tunnel focused on a few individuals in class. Have had owners & other coaches cop passive aggressive attitudes & comments for no reason. Owners & coaches have been known to discuss business or speak illy of drop-ins, members, previous members, or other owners during business hours & directly in front of the individual as if they are not present. Administrative owners will write notes & keep unprofessional tabs on clients via their Wodify (software program) account to include information about the client's personal life & the way that admin owner personally feels about that client. Owners watch cameras to a neurotic point & if you forget to check into a class...they'll go back, watch the camera tapes & reading the boards (both - because sometimes you might just be doing open gym & not have your name on the board) & then check you into the class(es) days/ a week later.

Mary is just amazing!!! Fun, energetic, non-judgmental, patient, and truly inspiring. She leads like CEO and I've found myself more dedicated to working out than ever before in my life. Her other trainees are the nicest group of women I've ever encountered, and everyone is always willing to help a newbie out. Her equipment is clean, state-of the-art, and plentiful.

My healing journey began in October 2025. This location was…read morereferred to us by a fellow member of this Y & my friend. Although we live in Paradise Hills and there are other locations near us- McGrath is where I found myself 5xs/ week- when they first opened at 6am. I came solely for the indoor heated pool. During this time, I was out on a work injury for 5 months & wasn't sure how much longer I'd be on a No Work Status. Between my occupational health doctor & my podiatrist- we were waiting to see if my foot would be in a cast. By the time I found out- NO cast was needed- my podiatrist recommended either strength training or swimming. The gals who did our application intake, honored my husband's First Responder credentials & that helped waive his application fee! Since we notated my friend referring us to McGrath- she also got a credit to her monthly fee- the following month. I was utilizing the heated pool for walking and the foam resistance weights. I have gotten to know & chat with the morning indoor lifeguards. And they helped make the morning session go fast. (Along with the music playing). Thank you Adam, Cameron, Will, Drew, Colton, Tati, Hannah, Annika & Audriana (hope I spelled your names right!). I have especially made a friend with an older fella, Randy. And he was especially the highlight of my morning. We would share our walking lane and time went by so fast. Along with the facility times changing- from 6am/ 5:30am/ 5am.... Staff doesn't miss a beat. There was a time during winter 2025- the only pool (outdoor) at Santee was getting maintenance. It was out for more than a month. And there was an influx of additional members at McGrath for quite some time. I felt the influx seemed like a burden to a few regulars- but, for me- I had the opportunity to meet more members by name. It may seem like a nuisance if one's daily routine is disrupted for a bit, but just remember- it's temporary. I was taken aback, when some grown adults refused to share their pool lanes. But, it was great to see lifeguards correct this behavior. Fast forward to Summer 2026- I booked a one hour massage and am looking forward to my first session.
