I can't even start my day right without getting my blood pumping...It's a lifestyle. I'm not a fad work out person I just need it like others need coffee. Wow! This place really gets your energy going. It is fun and motivational. It's a large open space. The instructors set up their set for the day. MWF is cardio day. I love Wednesday's work out. The instructors are all super cool. At the beginning of class demonstrate the work outs. There is house and hip hop beats flowing as a monitor tells you your work out, shows you how and for how long. There are 6 to 15 stations and you switch in numerical order. Membership is a monthly fee for unlimited use. Down side there is join the membership or nothing at all. Packages not available at this location. read more

F45 Training Kahala - Early morning...motivation! - Trainers Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

This place is the real deal. Me and my wife did a one day free class and we love circuit training. The only thing that stopped us from coming back was the $180 a month per person. If you can aid it I recommend it. read more

F45 is a super cool new group fitness gym that just opened. F stands for Functional training (basic movements) 45 stands for 45 minute workouts. I was really lucky to tried it for 2 weeks when they first opened. I really love how they break out the workouts throughout the week, focusing on different themes: -MWF are cardio days -TTH are resistance days and -SS are everything days (full body workout). Saturdays, they even have a live DJ. This is a super cool idea and really adds a nice flavor to the workout, especially when you wake up all hung over and wonder if you should maybe skip the work out! Hmmm, no! Every workout is based on HIIT (high intensity interval training)/tabata style, which is basically 40 sec on, 20 sec off (rest). The rounds are short and there are lots of stations to switch to after each round. This makes the 45 workout fly by really fast. The number of stations vary depending on the theme of the workout, which can be from 9 to even over 30 stations. Parking is pretty decent. You can park in the lot on the right and also at the bank parking on the block (when the bank is closed). read more

First off, I'm not a cardio person! But F45 makes doing cardio bearable. Class is well conducted and instructors were very personable and motivating. I went to 2 classes so far. First one was a full cardio class. Lots of burpees, push ups and fast movements. You work only 45sec and rest 10. This is circuit training so you will be move ever few minutes to a new exercise. There were 3 modules and within this 3 were 6 different exercises. Again 45 sec on 10 sec rest. 45 min went so fast and it didn't seem that hard until you cool down and can't walk a few hours later. 2nd class was a half cardio and half boxing and kicking . Same thing 45 on 10 off. 3 modules with 6 movements. This class seemed harder. Hitting your partner is tiring, holding the punching shield and bracing your self for impact was even harder. The cardio part this time seemed easier but still good core movements . End of day for both classes I ended up about 800 burned calories for 45 min. Combine this with my normal lifting routine, I was at about 1500 calories before hitting 10a. I highly recommend this place. Everyone is so nice. Motivating and gives great support. I hope the prices come down a little so I can actually join. read more

Ok! I guess you can say i am a cheater!!! I've been going to corepower for over a year but today i decided to try something new and see if the grass was greener on the other side. Lets say, "i got curious" so i decided to try this new type of work out... and guess what? I loved it! Here is the review: *Ambience: not as nice or as fashion as core power but not bad either. I SUPER LOVED the music though!! *Service: everyone was super nice and friendly! You can try 7 days for free! *How it works: Book your class online first. You warm up, and then you will be rotating in different stations. You will work out for 60 seconds or less and then have a 30 second break (or less for other classes) we repeated this 2 times and time just flew! Overall i am not sure if i am ready to break up with my ling relationship with corepower but definitely F45 is a good competitor. Maybe i can have the best of both worlds and have both? #decisions #sixpackhereicome read more

F45 Training Kahala - Trainers Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

I wasn't sure I could do it. I'm not 27 or 37 or 47. I am 57 and I am so inspired by everyone that comes to F45. The support and camaraderie is incredibly uplifting as we all work through the circuit of exercises together. Some days are cardio and some days are strength training and no two days are ever alike which is perfect for my attention span, LOL! The tempo of the music is trendy and fun and not too loud and the coaches are all spectacular as they come around and check on us to be sure we are doing each exercise properly. From the moment I step in the door and I am greeted by a coach, I feel welcomed. They call me by name and remember random details of my life that I have shared. I am not someone that likes to go to the gym however the core strength I have physically gained and the friendships I have created have undeniably enhanced my life in multiple ways. It's true, any workout is what you make it. So is life. To live my best life being a member and sweating with a whole bunch of people seems like a fun thing to be doing right about now! At least I'm not the only one! There is free parking in the parking lot next to hedge, street parking and parking at the mall. I also like the opportunity to sign up using the app and having at least a half a dozen choices for times to attend. I am always inspired and grateful I joined. Not one regret, ever and just feeling better every single day! read more

F45 Training Kahala - Sweaty after a workout just playing happy! - Trainers Near Me - Honolulu, Hawaii

It has been about a month and a half since I started coming to F45. Just some background, I do not go to the gym, I used to run long distances but not anymore. I also used to take barre classes. I liked barre because it is very low impact, small movements but also very challenging. Like with everybody else, Covid-19 really did a number. I stopped working out, ate whatever I wanted, and gained some weight. I was "skinny fat". After 2020 ended and 2021 started, I started to become more aware of my poor health. It affected my mood and energy and I was unhappy. To make a long story short, My friend, who is an active member of F45, invited me to take some classes with her. She told me that I could do a week trial for free. Who can say no to free?! Not me. So I told her I would try it out. It took a bit of convincing to agree to it. Mainly because I was lazy and terrified of how painful it's gonna be to work out. I was also intimidated about working out around others who have been going to F45 for a while. I didn't want to make a fool of myself. Here I am a month and a half since I started coming to F45 and I think I'm addicted (sorta). I am more so addicted to how I feel after completing a workout. Most classes are only 45 minutes long, but they definitely give you a great workout in that time. There is never a workout where I'm not drenched in sweat. The coaches were all great! They definitely try their hardest to get to know everyone and they always address you and welcome you when you walked into their door. I really liked that they know everyone's names! Makes it feel more like friends and family instead of acquaintances. They definitely kept me motivated and pushed me whenever I felt like I felt like I could not do another rep. The coaches would walk around motivating, correcting your form, and some would even do the reps with you. It was great because for someone like me, who is constantly in her own head, it was nice to have someone else cheering me on. Other members who I have met so far were also very encouraging and friendly. As for the facility, it is well taken care of. The staff cleans the studio in between classes. Hand sanitizers are provided. It has 1 bathroom with a toilet, sink and a shower. They also have a water dispenser! This is especially important for those cardio days. Overall 20/10, would highly recommend. If you are anything like me and do not like to think of what to do for a workout, or need guidance and motivation, F45 is worth it, besides...

See all

Pros: - 45-minute fast pace exercise - Coaches are awesome, especially the ones that help you with your form! - Everyone that comes to class seems like they take their health seriously - Competitive environment makes you want to try your hardest - Intensity is challenging yet not intimidating Cons: - Classes can get a bit full - Parking is an issue with only 11 stalls for a class of 40 people - No water fountain, only flask/water bottle refiller within the building. Must bring your own flask/water bottle. - Not enough equipment when classes are full Overall great work out especially the Saturday classes- so fun with the DJ and hour mix cardio and strength. Give yourself two weeks to determine if you like it or not, the first week for me was killer since I hadn't worked out for a while and had a horrible diet during that time as well. read more

Best all body, high intensity workout! This original Australia company has branched out & finally made it to Hawai'i!! So stoked to become a member! I love all their classes, it's perfect for my crazy schedule. I used to be a member at Orangetheory, but once i took one class at F45 i quickly knew OT wasn't for me anymore... quit & joined to F45 fam! The coaches here are helpful, fun, uplifting & have a team work attitude which is hard to come by these days. It's very inviting (which i was scared at first to come alone) ! I've brought 3 friends in with me for their free week and all of them love it & have joined! Keep it up F45, you're killin' it! read more

I always struggled to maintain an exercise routine and be consistent. That changed when I joined F45 training Kahala! Only 45 minutes of effective workout! The results are amazing, it was the best decision ever! I highly recommend it, they're an amazing group of people (coaches and members) that are always supporting you to achieve your best! read more

F45 is awesome! The concept is brilliant and will definitely get you results. The workouts are super fun and fast. I have been to 6 sessions now and have painfully loved each one. F45 stands for Functional 45 (functional fitness in 45 minutes). All workouts are done with high intensity training (HIIT) and in circuits, some workouts are more geared toward cardio (no treadmills...fun exercises from KB swings, box jumps, burpee variations, etc) and others more towards strength. Basically, you walk in, workout really hard for 45 minutes, burn hundreds of calories, walk out drenched in sweat and feeling great. The vibe is really cool, there are always two awesome trainers who give you a demonstration of the workout for the day and then they get the class going. Throughout the workout the trainers are walking around offering encouragement, pushing the class and assisting when needed...they won't let you dog it! There is also good music mixes played and tv monitors that have a demonstration of each workout (in case you get lost mid circuit). Also, there are thousands of workout combos, so you never know what to expect and your muscles are always guessing. The people in the classes I have been going to are a mixed group from 20 somethings to 50 plus with different fitness levels. It is a fun environment and frankly the only thing you have time to focus on is you and getting the workout done. The functional aspect makes a lot of sense, there are many workout programs out there that simply are not practical for your average person. Another big plus is that your done in 45 minutes. I signed up for the free two week trial and am going to become a member. Personally, this is something I have been looking for. I have always worked out and have been in decent shape but recently lacked motivation and variety in my workouts. F45 offers intense but fun workouts. I think F45 will help me finally get rid of my DAD BOD for good! read more

F45 Kahala has an army of well versed trainers/coaches that not only know and understand fitness -- but practice what they preach. On any random day you'll see coaches attending class on their time off. F45 Kahala also has Clean facilities that are sanitized in between every class. There is also a towel enforcement policy. This just helps overall because the workout is 100% High Intensity. I primarily take morning classes so, I need to shout out Kelsea and Nicole for bringing the energy in the early AM. Also, a thank you to Zack and Jess for spotting and correcting any adjustments to my form. I have major appreciation for this gym and the people that make it a fitness community. read more

I am impressed with this gym. It's clean and organized. The workout was intense but not soul shattering. Instructors were helpful, and motivational but not overbearing. I prefer this atmosphere over 23hr and UFC by far. Everyone is focused on their own exercises, so it took away a lot of the anxiety I often feel at a crowded gym. read more

Fast. Fun. Friendly. Effective. As a business owner with a busy schedule I was thrilled to stumble upon this 45 minute workout that works every single muscle group with unmatched efficiency! I went in on a whim with a friend and came out of my first workout with more energy than I've had in a long time. All trainers on the core team are extremely friendly and make an outwardly intimidating environment extremely friendly. Since joining F45 I have brought many of my managers, employees, and friends along and it has been a great bonding activity for people of all fitness levels. I highly suggest giving their one week trial a whirl... it's addicting! read more

Now that I have been going to F45 for over a month, I am ready to write my review. Personally, I enjoy high intensive cardio group workouts. Having another gym membership that have those workout suffice, but I was really looking for a change for my routine and needed a challenge. I initially signed up for the F45 free trial thinking it's another gym chain gimmick on social media. After the week was over, I actually had a withdraw. The facility is clean. Everything is wiped and floor was vacuum between classes. The classes made good use of 45 minutes, no 2 classes are the same (and I have been there for over a month), staff are friendly and did a great job correcting my form. Other members are energized and pumped, making it a very positive excercise environment. Although the membership fee is high, it is comparable to other similar gym chain. I see it as an investment for your own health. read more

F45 is a chain of gyms that offers an efficient 45-minute work out. It alternates daily between cardio-focused and resistance-focused workouts. What I love about this style of exercising is I don't need to think about it! I go to an F45 class, listen to the coaches, go through the stations in order and get a great workout in a short period of time. I go after work, when my brain is ready to turn off - it's great to have a workout where you don't even need to remember what number of exercises to do, or what order to do them in. It's a monthly fee-based membership, but if you travel you can put your membership on freeze for a couple of months at a time. My favorite thing is the coaches - they are so caring, attentive to everyone's form, enthusiastic and positive. They understand that everyone is there to work at their own pace, and some people have injuries or limitations that require modifications to the exercise. They never act like someone isn't fit enough to be there - they are just stoked to see you work hard and get better, no matter where you're starting from. The owners, Shane and Mimi, are also fantastic - they are professional, thoughtful and community-oriented. This place keeps me sane, has me looking better than I did before (even though I still don't eat a perfect diet, oops), and is actually fun. All without having to put too much thought into it. Well worth monthly membership! read more

I cannot rave enough about f45. It has abso. changed my life. Now my only concern is what I'll do if ever f45 goes away. I'm a 53 yr old professional woman and mother of five and have tried a variety of exercise options. For 15 years I slogged away at an expensive gym. I've been a runner and occasionally hit a yoga studio. Never found anything that I consistently loved or wanted to do. Until now. I looooove f45. It presents a perfect way to stay fit, have fun, and requires nothing but that you show up. I alter the routine a bit (use super minimal weights) and the coaches support me and anyone else who needs accommodation. There are young and old, men and women members and a total sense of inclusion and joy here. The nearly hourly offerings (mornings through noon and then again late afternoon through evening) change daily so you never get bored or injured. The coaches are all wonderful; helpful upbeat and personable. Thank you f45. I love you!! read more

I have been doing F45 fitness for some time and lost almost 15 pounds and keep it off. All the trainers are super knowledgeable, love and care about us. I built in a good habit for doing exercise and eat well because of F45. Most of us think F45 only for young individuals but I am senior , and totally love F45. I highly recommend all of you to join us. Love F45. read more

This place is the SHIZZZNIT! Best workout, community, and trainers - period!

Visitor from out-of-town for about a month and stopped by F45 Kahala 4-5x each week. Super efficient workouts that are very effective. Zane is a great instructor and great guy - looking forward to visiting again soon! read more

Attended their first open. You'll get a good workout here. Guaranteed. Try the free 2 week trial to see if you like it. Staff is friendly and enthusiastic. Plenty of parking. read more

Great workouts, great trainers!! Super encouraging and positive, they make me want to work harder! Regardless of your level of fitness, it can be adjusted to meet your needs. read more

Staff is nice, trainers help you. People are encouraging and the workout is good. Super awesome environment!

I love this type of workout when there is attention to detail with alignment and safety. I love the group fitness experience when there's an authentic sense of support and community. I love connecting with other studio owners who take pride in what they do and are open to feedback and conversation. I love trainers who actually know their stuff. I was disappointed to discover that none of these apply here. My experience wasn't great the first time, but I gave it another try. Besides, my first visit was in the first week they were open...I figured they were working out the kinks. I returned a few months later; I really didn't want to blow this place off after one bad experience months before. Nothing was different. I love a crazy intense workout, but I just couldn't get past the chaos and ego of this place. Not to mention the extreme ignorance to proper form and safety. read more

I walked into F45 because of the location. I mean, hard to beat being next to Kahala mall, right? Though the workout quality was just so-so, compared to my old CrossFit spot or Orange Theory. I really had hoped that I would like this place! read more
