I love the lifting platforms where the squat racks are, and I think they utilize the space well eventhough it does get cramped in some places. Parking can be challenging in this neighborhood and I do wish they had some sort of hip thrust machine - they may have added that since I moved out of the area (I'm not 100% sure). I will say the owners are so receptive to feedback, and I can literally see that they invest the money they make back into their business. They expanded to the upstairs to provide more space to warm up, lift, and stretch. They provided more weights, machines, bands, and mats. Also, I mentioned they should have hairbands for women in case they forget them, and literally the next time I showed up they had them. They also do offer a free day trial (not super common in SF), and the owners are very kind and insanely accommodating. I'm happy it's not just a personal training gym like other places in the city and I feel like they fr wanna give back to the community as the owner did advocate to get a stop sign in a high traffic area. The owners and operators are super friendly and accommodating, it fr gives family business vibes. I love supporting black owned and family operated businesses. Overall, worth checking out and supporting if you live nearby.

What we didn't realize was how much he would change our personal fitness life for the better. Francisco is not only knowledgeable and experienced as a trainer, but he is also a fun and engaging individual. He emphasizes challenging yourself, but taught us to recognize our limitations to avoid injuries. He reminded us that there are plenty other ways to target a muscle group rather than focusing on one specific exercise. We genuinely looked forward to our sessions with him. I now feel confident at the gym, thanks to Francisco. Whether you're a newbie to the fitness world or an experienced gym-goer, I would highly recommend Francisco.

Jess is very thoughtful in designing my workouts, done over video call using the equipment I already had. She focused on my goals - which was gaining overall strength (I was starting to feel muscle strain/pain carrying my son around) and getting back into running. She constantly checked in on how I felt and made sure the movements were just the right amount of challenging. She also mixed in flexibility stretches between sets, which I really enjoyed! In between our sessions, I could also refer to workouts she added to a PT app. Her style is encouraging and light hearted, while being incredibly knowledgeable about the body and adjustments and good form! And of course, since we were meeting virtually, my cat and her dog made frequent (and sometimes comical) appearances :D I highly recommend Jess as a personal trainer!

I switched careers because the industry is super sketchy. Fit Club, on the other hand, with its friendly neighborhood atmosphere is by far the best I've experienced. I was a member a few years back and decided to re-join a month ago with my husband. The new location is much nicer, with more space and a glimpse of the ocean out the window. Marty and his staff are awesome, and they have all the essentials: treadmills, ellipticals, a rower, and machines for every muscle group. It's never crowded, and everyone is so nice.

Its all their fault because they fail repeatedly to deal with basic requests like updating a card on file, and repeatedly screw up on the computer system. The owner insists on not having staff and putting his personal number but he never is available and becomes irate if you "bother" him Gym is small and ill equipped. Very hot and smells bad. Never any staff there in case of problems like beings locked out. Cant get ahold of owner during normal business hours and constantly acts like he is being bothered if you report broken equipment or anything Fitness SF is better anyway. I was going to keep both but the owner of this gym doesn't reciprocate loyalty Go here if you wanna get locked out randomly and repeatedly and belittled for making perfectly reasonable complaints. Im sure he will reply here claiming i am the problem but fyi all i did was say "im sick of this" and i think anyone would be after repeatedly getting locked out despite paying $125 a month. i see people having issues with getting locked out basically every day. The owner is aware but choses to not staff his gym or switch software systems The floor uses foam tiles so when you try to wheel the benches around they become dislodged and jam and create hazards. The owner makes rash decisions like putting 100lb dumbbells on a rack not suitable for such heavy weights so they fall on your feet, he is too stubborn and gets overly defensive if you try to point out any issue, and tries to deflect (its always the members or the staffs fault, never takes responsibility or ownership)
