They don't just throw you a generic workout plan and tell you to hit it. Emily, the owner, took the time to understand what I wanted to achieve, what motivated me, and what my limitations were. It felt like a real conversation, not just filling out a form. And it goes way beyond just the weights! We talked about nutrition, sleep, hydration, my whole lifestyle. Emily gave me a plan that fit into the real me, not some fantasy version that wouldn't last a week. But the best part? This feels like a true partnership. Emily made it clear she could be as detailed as I needed, but she'd also hold me accountable in a way that works for ME. It wasn't a one-size-fits-all approach - I saw them working with other clients in completely different ways. And let's talk about Emily, the owner. This isn't just a job for her, it's her passion, her calling. You can see it in the way she explains things, the genuine enthusiasm she brings, and the depth of knowledge she's willing to share. Not once did I feel like she was talking down to me, even when I was asking beginner questions. or when I had uncertainty from other fitness regimens that I've tried. If you're looking for a gym that truly cares about your individual journey, C5 is the place. It's clear they want to see you succeed, and they'll give you the tools and support to get there.

I started going to their boot camp classes and was so happy to find them challenging and different everyday similar to what I was used to at OTF. I wanted to write this post now because I was at the grocery store today and the cashier asked where I trained at! I am 6 months Pregnant! It felt so great for someone to ask me that when I feel like I feel like I am carrying an obvious baby belly! All of the trainers are so great and helpful. They have given me great guidance and modifications throughout my pregnancy so far. They make sure everyone in the class keeps their form on point to avoid any unnecessary injury. I am personally very comfortable with weight lifting on my own and joined for the motivation and accountability factor. But, if you are new to weight lifting or intimidated by the gym, the classes are GREAT place to get some knowledge as well.

He also kept me on my toes with his variety of workouts, ranging from weight training, circuit training, and boxing. I can't recommend this gym enough!! "Small scene, big results."

I was in SLO taking care of my mom, and had found Inferno on Instagram beforehand. So impressed with how badass the owner was I realized HAD to get my a** there! Definitely wasn't disappointed! What a great box, and boy what a blessing to be able to workout while away from home in my favorite place. Inferno is amazing, it's literally around the corner from the airport and the energy of the place is uber cool. The coaches are incredibly knowledgeable, supportive, motivating, encouraging and good hearted. The workouts are excellent, the music is awesome and the fellowship with everyone there is truly heartwarming. If you live near this place, stop scrolling the phone, get off the couch and drive down to Inferno and watch your body, mind and life change for the better. Are you mentally struggling? CrossFit is more than just fitness--it's cognitive behavior therapy--in which one is able to adopt healthier life perspectives after an hour of hard earned sweat...and the benefits are longer lasting. You start where you're at and the sky is the limit. So glad I found this gem while I was there. I can't wait to come back! Thank you so much for letting me join in.

Goals are to rebuild…read morestrength after a complete shoulder replacement, improve balance and overall fitness and lose some weight. The results have been slow and steady and I feel that both trainers listen to me and build a custom workout to meet my goals. The 1 on 1 works best for me as it guarantees my form is good for the wide variety of exercises we work on twice/week. And the fact they are very nice and thoughtful people just makes the whole experience outstanding. I am 65 years old and getting better every week!

However, until I tried C.O.R.E., I wasn't aware of what a trainer could help me achieve by truly understanding the limitations of my individual body and working around them to help me achieve my goals. When I expressed my concerns to Casey, the owner, that I had some limitations I needed to work around to get bigger, faster and stronger, he put me with Kenna, who has a ton of experience and education, and is an athlete with substantial credentials. I have only been working with Kenna for a few weeks and I can already see gains in my endurance and strength. I can see that, with consistency, I will be accomplishing much more. I look forward to every training day!
