Dont let the small looking space fool you! It's an entire world of fitness packed inside! I've been a member of Evolution Fitness for 2 years. Adrian and Charlene run this ship pretty tight. They are always incentivizing ways to help you reach your goals. I have the most stubborn weight issues ever, and it hasnt stopped Adrian from getting creative and going out to learn more about my health issues and pushing me to keep trying. They host out of gym activities, events, and holiday gatherings and go out of their way to include everyone. After a few months working out here steadily, you forget it's a gym. You forge a friendship with Morgan while he's training you, and find yourself following them on social media for updates on Lola the gym mascot and Charlene gathering everyone for hikes. You walk by for tacos on a Wednesday night and can hear Adrian coaching all the way down the street and laugh because, well, that's Adrian. You dont just lose weight and tone your body, you gain an amazing experience with wonderful coaches who will make you feel as though you are their only client and they will go to all lengths to ensure you get what you need. 10/10 recommend read more

I was talking to some friends recently about how we picked up our fitness routines. I realized at that point that I got nearly all of my key pointers from training with Adrian nearly EIGHT years ago! I'm still using a ton of what he taught me despite not being nearby anymore and of all time or resources I've ever invested in, I don't know if I've used anything nearly as much. These guys do great work, you won't regret dropping by. Thanks again Adrian! read more

I signed up for the 6-week challenge, and actually managed to follow the plan, for the most part--I had a few hiccups, because life. But to be honest, I'm not a huge fan of rules or following directions, but Adrian and his team will make you want to actually do. the. work. They're cool people who ultimately want you to achieve your goals, whatever they happen to be, and to be honest, I'd feel like a terrible person if I didn't make it happen! Through the challenge, I was able to lose about 23lbs, in a sensible, seemingly sustainable (only time will tell) way. The workouts are as challenging as you want to make them, so it doesn't matter if you have poor motor skills (me) or are a super hero, you can and will get the job done, because Adrian and Daniel won't let you settle for the easy way out. The meal plan is sensible and simple, and in general, my overall experience has been pretty excellent. I've even canceled my membership at my regular gym, so that I could keep playing here! read more

I started at Evolution Fitness almost 2 years ago and I love it. The atmosphere and rotating activities has taught me to love exercise. Both Morgan and Adrian are great guys and are very knowledgeable. I really like that it is a smaller studio because classes are smaller and I get the training attention needed. They are attentive to people's physical limitations and quick to make modifications as needed. They try to make every member feel like a part of their family. All members, new and old, are treated well. In addition to classes they often have community building events like hikes and most recently pumpkin carving. read more

Honestly, I've never been to a place like this before. The trainers are all absolutely amazing: they give you a meal plan, personalize your workouts, and keep you accountable. I came for the 6 week challenge, and I ended up cancelling my LA Fitness membership and signing up for a whole year. I was stuck at a plateau, and I was at a crossroads where I just didn't know what to do. They definitely kicked my butt into gear working with my fitness level every step of the way, and the progress speaks for itself. I recommend this place to everyone, it is a total life changer. Thank you Adrian, Daniel, and Morgan for everything you do!! read more

This is a small, clean, and personable facility where everyone knows you by name and really makes you feel welcome. I did their 6 week program and I lost 22lbs! They provide a meal plan and recipe book, so you know what you can and can't eat, and have a good selection of healthy meals. You get 3 classes per week and can choose between sculpting classes for upper or lower body, or a foundations class that's high energy and really gets you sweating, while working out various muscles on a rotating circuit. The trainers support you and keep you motivated, even when you're not sure you can keep going. They also check in with you frequently to see how you're feeling, if you're on track to reach your goal, and to see if you have any questions or concerns. This isn't a place for anyone who isn't willing to put the work in to really make a positive change. You're going to be pushing yourself to your limits, and for the first week or two, you WILL be sore! But it's all worth it when you see the transformation you're making! read more

Adrian was the first trainer I worked with when I moved to San Diego. Not only is he a rad dude and a fellow "fitness nerd" (I mean that in the best way possible) but he has a great way of explaining concepts, filtering out the the bullshit, helping you get clear on your goals, get rid of your excuses and get you the results you want. Not only did I build muscle and strength but also learned a lot of great coaching tips and the "why" behind the programming. Adrian was a major reason I decided to continue a career in the fitness industry and I still follow his content and bug him for advise every once in a while. If I still lived in San Diego, I'd be lurking around Evolution Fitness. If you have a chance to work with him, don't miss out - one of the good guys! read more

I lost 20 lbs with Evolution Fitness Coaching and have kept it off for 2 years. I look and feel great! I was a "skinny fat" person. I did a lot of cardio (I was able to complete the Triple Crown- 3 half marathons), but I still felt fat in my clothes (not to mention out of my clothes). I held most of my weight in my belly so I wore a lot of loose tops and it would take me hours to get dressed because nothing fit right. After starting with Evolution, I learned one nutrition habit at a time and 2 years later it's proven to be successful for me. I never once felt I was on a diet or told I can't eat this or that. In my case, my first couple of habits were to actually add things, like protein and greens. We never took anything away. I learned how to portion with easy tips. And I still enjoy occasional indulgence without feeling guilty! Now the exercising! The workouts are fun! Boot camps are fun and the exercises are programmed for different levels. So beginners and experienced people can get a great workout altogether. And It's great to see my own progress in strength!!! I used to be the girl at the gym on the treadmill. Now with the confidence I've gained working with Evolution, if I'm ever working out on my own i feel empowered to be in the free weights area. Overall, they really focus on your goals, they do well working around injuries, and teach you ways to be successful in the long run, for life. Give them a try, what do you have to lose??? Besides the weight!) :) read more

Evolution Fitness Coaching - Left pics from my first wk training with Adrian Jan '14. Right pic is Feb '15, 20lbs lighter. As of today I've still kept the weight off! - Boot Camps Near Me - San Diego, California

I been to many gyms and find Evolution Fitness coaching to be my favorite. The classes are small and intimate so you get the feel of having a personal trainer without the personal trainer cost. It's a friendly uplifting environment and it doesn't take long for this gym to start feeling like family. They offer many classes throughout the day so no matter how busy your schedule is you can almost always find a class time that works for you. The coaches are great. They pay attention to you and your challenges and always have a modification if needed. Best of all they push you to challenge yourself and work to your full capability. Come join our fitness family. You will be happy you gave Evolution Fitness Coaching a try. read more

A little over 6 weeks ago, I started the 6 week challenge they offer. I am going to start with the positive. Morgan is one of the trainers there and he is awesome. He will push you to workout harder but will help modify certain exercises if needed. The negatives: the studio is extremely small (as a result you are only allowed to go 3 times a week..even if you purchase a membership that costs over $200 a month), the studio is not the cleanest (dog fur everywhere), if you have a question, do not waste your time texting (even though this is how Adrian, the owner, contacts you and then still doesn't respond), the meal plans are okay and work...but towards the end of the 6 weeks, I had added up the calories they were telling me to eat and it was under 800 calories! Also, there was an inconsistency with the scale. I was not the only person that brought that to Adrian's attention. They need to have a calibrated scale for something like this... Sent Adrian a picture of the scale when I got back home showing that it was way off...and guess what! Still no response. As a result, I did not get my money back. Be very careful with this gym. Strong sales tactics that used car salesmen use as well. Pay attention..at the end of the original presentation, he asks which payment method is better for you (not if you even want to do it at all). If you are looking for a place to workout however many times you would like, like HIIT/ciircuit workouts, somewhere that will also do 6 week challenges, have a much larger and cleaner facility, and a membership that is about half the cost of this gym, Camp West is where its at! They have multiple locations and it is absolutely amazing!!! read more

I am not the best in following instructions, esp. when it comes to workouts. Given the choice, the couch seem to win everytime! :) At Evolution Fitness Coaching, they make it attractive to go to the studio. Clean facility, personal coaching, 1:1 training, tremendous support... Adrian, Morgan and Charlene give it their all. They treat clients as family and they have fun doing it! Yes, the studio is small and it may be overrun by new clients soon (since this group is just awesome), but they have a system that works! I joined the 6-week challenge and made my goal of losing 5% body fat even before the end of the 6th week! Pretty incredible program! They also organize community events like a hike to Cowles Mountain to foster camaraderie and provide members other fitness options. If they add a pool to their facility (and a dance clinic, of course :D), that will complete my wishlist! Thank you, Evolution Fitness Coaching. You know fitness and it's great to have the rationale and benefits explained to clients instead of simply having them do the workout! read more

The experience with Evolution Fitness was amazing! I never thought I could do this, and with the support of all the coaches I met my challenge!!! 20lbs. I recommend Evolution Fitness! Thank you!!! Elena Jarin!! I did it!!!!! read more

In summary- Adrian and Jesse are top quality fitness coaches. I would say that they are top quality "trainers," but their work goes beyond more than just leading exercises- they teach people healthy eating habits and healthy life habits as well. In that way, their clients are truly able to experience an overall evolution in fitness, just as their company's name suggests. I have known both Adrian and Jesse for almost 4 years, and I have to say that they are two of the most knowledgeable and dedicated fitness coaches I have ever worked with. (Prior to meeting them, I had only trained with a certain gym's trainers- none of which shared the same level of passion for and expertise of fitness as Adrian and Jesse) Their bootcamps are fun and challenging. Their advice and tips are provided with a lot of thought and research and are unique to each individual client's needs. Evolution Fitness Coaching is definitely 5 stars in my book. read more

I recommend 100% evolution fitness to everyone. They have great trainers I've lost 50lbs in 7 months i feel and look better. love their classes everyone is really nice and welcoming. read more

So it's been a while since I worked out not that I didn't want to just I have little ones and had mom guilt and never found the time for myself. Evolution came up on my timeline and I signed up. Small gym and I love it. I'm on group training. No more than I think it's 10-12 people per class. Which is great because I feel I get that attention if I'm doing something wrong plus they push me when I need it. Real encouraging place with everyone cheering each other on. Also they give you a nutrition plan. And with me I gave them a hard time I had a real strict diet due to I'm breastfeeding and my son has allergies and eczema but they worked with me and Adrian went above and beyond with me. I sent him pictures of my meals so he could help with my progress. I'm not seeing it on the scale but I feel great and I'm seeing it in my body and it's only been 4 weeks. I'll update this review as I go on and upload before and after pics read more

Adrian and Mike have changed my life. They are truly focused on helping you get healthy and making positive changes. For the first time I felt like I had the support I needed to continue. I felt comfortable during my time there. They work with you if you have an injury. The positive energy and motivation of you can do it is sincere and genuine. They even take the time to give you tips on how to work out any kinks you may have or soreness. If you follow their advice their plan works. You need to believe in yourself. read more

I just finished my six week challenge here and am feeling amazing! I couldn't have reached my goal without the amazing support of the trainers at this gym and the community who trains here. I chose to put my money towards 3 months worth of membership because I can't get enough of this place and I'm not finished crushing my goals! If you are looking for nutrition and exercise support within a small gym environment this is definitely the place for you. Highly recommend for anyone looking to make a lifestyle change. read more

Sitting here, contemplating on how the scale could be lying to me. Never my life have I been overweight. When I thought of how I looked, the imagine didn't match what I saw in the mirror. At that time, I knew I had to make a change. Scrolling through Facebook, like them millennial I am, I felt like I got hit in the face with a sign. This awesome gym right up the street from me?! They talked about wanting to change the lives of women and the perspective on personal training, nutrition, and exercise in general. I took the bait and I emailed them. That very same day I got a phone call from Adrian setting up my appointment time to meet me, with no strings attached. Just to sit down and talk about my goals. Hesitant, I asked my sister if she wanted to check it out with me, and of course she said yes. Both of us with the same goals in mind. In my initial meeting with Adrian, it was like I was talking to a friend. He was super understanding and knew exactly how I felt. He let me know all the details about the gym and the six week challenge and it sounded perfect to me. We even set up a 100% personalized nutrition plan. The thing that I love most about this Boot Camp is that there is an Accountability portion, which no gym I've ever been to has offered. Here I am, six weeks later and 20 pounds leaner, I am so ecstatic to say that this gym has change my life and has gotten me on the right track to a more fit and healthy life. Getting married in 2019 is going to be the best thing ever happened to me, but joining this gym is right up there with that. I highly recommend this gym to anyone who has self-esteem issues, Weight gain issues, or just anyone who wants a change. Thank you Adrian and Mike for all of your help, the extra push you always gave me, and for getting my self-esteem back. Rae read more

Ive been working with Adrian's online program for the last 6 months(I live in Las Vegas) and have nothing but good things to say about him and the program. I'm not new to working out but I was struggling with new results. I reviewed with Adrian over the phone my goals, areas id like to focus on, and my diet. The next day I had a workout plan for the month, and have been cutting weight without a problem. I'm down 21 lbs and getting definition. Couldn't be happier. read more

A very patient and effective physical trainer. I've had trainers in the past and they've usually been very good- but Adrian takes it to another level. I went to see him because I was concerned post knee surgery about the lack of strength and flexibility in my body. Ok, to be bluntly honest, I was concerned about not riding my bike as quickly as before! So, I decided to focus my time on rebuilding my strength and working on developing a flexibility that I'd never had before. So far, I've been training with Adrian for going on 3 months and the results have been wonderful. I would highly recommend Adrian and his "assistant coaches" (two lovable doggies that occasionally show up with him at the 6am shift.). I will update this review as time goes on, but Adrian is the man. read more

Hands down Evolution is the place to be if you're looking for a great workout with that extra push/accountability. I've been in many other gyms, trained with a handful of trainers, but I have to admit Evolution is by far the best. I love that Adrian and Mike are so attentive to your workout needs, and are great at modifying any workout that best suits your needs, being that I personally suffer from chronic neck pain. I still manage to get in a great workout even on days that I'm in a lot of pain cause of bad flare ups due to my neck. There's also nutritional support for anyone that needs a little more help on how to eat a healthy well balanced diet. Thank you Adrian and Mike for your support and pushing me to the limit! read more

I've been apart of Evolution of Fitness Coaching since they started and I've only received helpful, and knowledge based advice and answers. It's easy to spew out fitness and health tips, but being able to explain it and actually apply it to our workouts and nutrition is what they do best! Jesse and Adrian are always posting questions, and asking for our advice not only to make our experience better but to make them better trainers (if that's even possible.) . That's what you want. You want trainers who are constantly pushing themselves in the gym and pursuing more knowledge not only for them but for their clients! read more

The fitness coach (Adrian) is a good guy. He modifies my routine so that I get the most out of each session. I would gladly recommend this place to anyone looking to jump start their health, lose weight, or do something new. read more

This review is for Adrian, as a Personal Fitness Coach, as I've been attending multiple sessions for about 2 months now and look forward to trying out is Group Boot Camps. I've tried it all; The big gyms such as 24hr Fitness, LA Fitness, Crunch. I've tried diets and also the smaller gyms. None of these worked out for me. Lost interest real fast or it wasn't the thing I wanted to be part of. After my Doctor advised me that I NEEDED to loose weight due to a fatty liver I was urgently asking friends for a solution. After my ask the next morning I luckily met Adrian at a business meeting, hesitant at first but gave it a shot. The best decision of 2016 by far. My training sessions are personal and currently out of his garage. It's a safe environment. Men out there that need the next right steps in fitness, I highly recommend Adrian and for the women, I know my wife in the past has mentioned she wouldn't want to train with a guy but she recently met Adrian and was introduced to his professionalism. She's now referred her girlfriends over to him as we are confident Adrian is someone who's not only great at his profession but also a trusted individual. Thank you Evolution Fitness Coaching. -RGH read more

got some great recipes, advice and knowledge from Adrian. Looking forward to doing the bootcamps!

Great nutrition plan and workouts that really help burn body fat and reduce those pounds.

I discovered Evolution Fitness a year or so ago. I wanted to start making healthier choices by becoming more physically fit. The first person I ever met at this gym was the owner himself, Adrian. He was very personable and the times I trained with him his workouts had me feeling SUPER sore the next day, Lol. I went with the one-on-one personal training with one of his other staff members and I really enjoyed it. I have gone to other personal trainers and gyms in the past; but none of them have made me feel as comfortable, gave me a KILLER workout, or motivated me as much as Evolution Fitness did. I actually look forward to coming in, (although sometimes life happens) but this is the ONLY gym that I've gone to that actually makes you feel like family and at the same time gets the job done! I've recently returned to Evolution Fitness and have had the pleasure of working out with Morgan. He's such a great trainer, always motivates you to keep pushing harder and tailors all workouts to your specific needs. What I really love about this gym is that it's a judgment-free zone. Everyone that works out here are of all different calibers of fitness and come in all shapes and sizes. No one is left out!! This gym is perfect for someone who has never lifted a single weight before, the trainers here will guide you every step of the way. Moving forward, I plan on remaining a dedicated member of this gym. If you are looking for a place to get a great workout, look your best, and feel comfortable while doing it; look no further! I promise you won't regret it. Thanks Evolution Fitness! read more

I recently finished my 6 week challenge at Evolution Fitness and it was such a great experience! I dropped 22 lbs in the 6 weeks, which I never would have thought possible. I can't say it was easy but also it honestly wasn't that difficult to stay motivated, especially after seeing the results week after week. I've never liked going to the gym because I never know what to do, but I was actually motivated to go to the workouts here because you get guidance and also the trainers really push you (in a good way). Now that my 6 week challenge is over I plan to keep coming here to keep on working towards a healthier me. read more

All my life I have battled the infamous "yo-yo weight gain". I go through periods of fitness and weight loss losing various amounts of weight, yet the inevitable rebound comes along at some point in time to bring me right back to where it began. I know they say that the definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again expecting a different result. Somehow I knew that this time would be DIFFERENT. I am a physical therapist assistant by day and spend my career not only coaching people on how to stay mobile and fit, but also have to spend quite a bit of time motivating people to WANT to be fit and motivated. It can be very draining. One day I looked in the mirror and the person looking back at me was not the person that I envisioned I presented to the world. I also realized that I was being such a hypocrite to all of these people I serve on a daily basis. Something clicked at that point and I knew it was time to do things differently than I ever have before. My sister surprisingly showed me the promotion for evolution fitness and I decided to check it out. At first I thought that maybe it was just a hoax but something kept pulling at my heartstrings to fill out the application. So I did. Low and behold not even a few hours later I received a phone call from Adrian. I went for my initial visit to talk about a game plan and see what they were all about. He was so understanding of my intentions/goals/past experiences and was able to reassure me that this program was going to change everything. It was as though I had known him for years prior to our conversation. So with one of my New Year's resolutions being to push myself out of my comfort zone (which meant any way I saw fit at the time) I decided to sign up. Crazy enough I also decided to sign up during the holiday season which also included my birthday. But after talking to Adrian I knew it was something that I just did not want to wait to start. My first day I walked into the gym for a 6 AM workout and met Mike. We started the work out with the stretching routine and at the end was 30 seconds of jumping jacks. Yes, simple jumping jacks, like from my elementary PE class, for 30 whole seconds. They seemed to be the longest 30 seconds ever and I could not believe how winded I was afterwards. That was the sign I was looking for to show me that I had made the right decision by not waiting another day to start. Well long story short, I made it through that work out. And the next one. And the next one. Each one challenging me in a different way with Mike/Adrian/jimmy pushing me every step through every station. Fast forward to now, six weeks later, 18 workouts later, a few slip ups but 20 pounds lighter and here I am on the eve of my final way in reminiscing on the person I was just six weeks ago. This program legitimately changed me on the inside and the outside. I don't think I've ever been more determined, strict with myself or dedicated and I owe a lot of that to them. Obviously I was the one that had to actually DO the work not only in front of them but behind the scenes and I couldn't be more proud of myself. At the same time I couldn't be more thankful for this wonderful group of guys who gave me my sense of confidence back, my motivation back, and a new beginning to a new year/life/lifestyle. If you're looking for somebody to keep you accountable and work you hard this is the right place. All of that pushing out of your comfort zone is the way they mold you into the person you are able to be at the end of six weeks. I know there are days that seem longer than others, workouts that kick your butt a little more than others and days where you feel so sore you don't even want to move, but from somebody who has conquered and survived that I can say that EVERY single drop of sweat and early morning workout was worth it. I have now also made multiple friends, not only in the trainers but also in the wonderful people I've met over the last six weeks. I thank you all for being part of my journey. I also want to thank my sister for doing this with me. We have an even stronger bond now than we did before and It would've been so much harder without you. This is just the beginning. For me, for us and for anyone willing to jump in. Just do it! read more

Worked with Adrian a few years ago and had great results! He's one of those trainers that actually loves the science behind nutrition. Totally happy with his training. read more

I am currently working with Adrian from New York and I can't say enough about how great he is. With Adrian's help I was able to finally place in my third bodybuilding show and was able to do it without harsh diets and hours upon hours in the gym. If you need a trainer that uses science and encourages you then Adrian is the man for you! I've been working with him for over a year now and don't plan on stopping anytime soon. read more

Evolution Fitness Coaching started off as an ad that popped up on my Instagram but ended as a life changing journey. Adrian, Mike, and Daniel pushed me to limits I thought my body would never be able to reach. Not only did they help me get in shape for the summer but they introduced me to a healthy lifestyle that I will be able to manage for years to come. Personally, my issue before coming here was that I would leave the gym unsatisfied, feeling as if I wasn't pushing myself hard enough and I didn't really know what I was doing. I needed that extra motivation to achieve my fitness goals and that's exactly what this 6 week challenge did. It motivated me to take responsibility for my health and take accountability for my bad eating habits. The personal guidance of the trainers gave me a foundation that I can even use at home. Over the six weeks I lost a total of 5 percent body fat and 8lbs! My friends and family can't believe the transformation I made in such a fast time. This gym is truly incredible and I highly recommend it to any body ready to make a positive change in their life! Thank you Adrian for always pushing me to be better and thank you Mike for always keeping me laughing lol read more
