Max Nutrition 661 - Vitamins & Supplements Near Me - Bakersfield, California

Came here a couple times I was able to meet Ella and Adam both very cool people. Adam was very helpful in whatever question I had he took his time to explain whatever it was that needed to be explained. Ella was also super helpful she was patient when I returned my protein because I hated it. She let me sample many different ones which I was very happy about because I did not have a clue on what to get so thank you Ella!! They definitely won me over as a customer! read more

place is great, they're always knowledgeable and helpful. everyone here knows how to help you achieve your goals

I really like shopping at a store where the staff is very knowledgeable about the product. You dont get that service when you go to similar competitors, or on amazon. Yes they are a little pricey but you get quality product, a little bit of education and you get friendly service. I was just window shopping but they still offered the same level of service when I'm making a purchase. That's awesome! I've been places and when I said I was just looking that was it, no more smiles no more service. Not here, they continued to engage and even offered me a few samples. Great job Muscle Max read more

Devin was incredibly helpful and answered all of my husband's questions without hesitation.

Everything was organized and the staff was quick to help us when we walked in. read more

First of all, let me start this review by saying that up until today, I liked purchasing from Max Muscle.....sure they are a little more expensive that bodybuilding.com or Amazon, but I liked the advice they can give and you get it right away instead of having to wait for it to be shipped. Now, after today's experience, I will not be returning as a customer to Max Muscle. I prefer to to business with companies that have integrity and I feel Max Muscle does not. Todays dealing also leads me to believe they the company is also dishonest in many other areas. Today's experience: I was looking into getting some quest bars as my wife and I are trying to eat healthier and make some good nutritional choices. The only problem is we are living on a really tight budget so buying $2 + protien bars was a little high for our budget. Lets just be real, it is MUCH less expensive to eat crap (Top Ramen, pasta, junk meats, canned foods) as opposed to lean meats, fresh veggies and good supplements. So as I was browsing i came across some $35 gift certificates to Max Muscle that can be purchased on www.YourRadioStore.com for only $18. I thought, that's a great deal. It will allow me to purchase some bars without a lot of cost....right? WRONG (For those unfamiliar with how YourRadioStore.com works, its advertising in trade to American General Media. When a company can't/doesn't want to pony up the money it takes to advertise on the radio, AGM allows them to trade the amount they want in advertising for gift certificates to the business. AGM then takes those certificates and sells them on YourRadioStore.com to customers at around a 50% discount) SoI purchase two certificates, go down a pick up my certificates to Max Muscle and take them to the Coffee Rd location to use them (cert says valid at both Bakesfield locations). Once I arrive the guys working in the store were very helpful and even offered me a sample of some protein that I was interested in. They helped me pick out the two boxes of Quest Bars that I wanted and I proceeded to checkout. This was when it all started to go downhill. I presented the $35 certificate toward my bill of about $50 and they guy helping me called another guy over. Then they told me they were not sure I could use it on quest bars and that he would need to call the owner or manager (not sure who he contacted). He took a min and came back and told me that the Quest bars had too low of a profit margin and "they didn't make very much off them" so I wasn't going to be able to use the certificate for Quest Bars. I was more that able to pick out other items that had a higher profit margin, but the the margin on the bars was too low and Max Muscle was the cheapest place in town to buy them. I explained how I purchased the certificate, the amount paid (these were not free) and that no where on it does it state that you cannot use it for "low margin" items. (the only restrictions listed on the gift certificate is "not good with any other offers"). I asked if I could get a number to talk to a manger or owner about the situation. He again called someone on the phone, came back to the counter and then responded with the same thing as before. That I was not going to be able to purchase the bars using the gift certificate and that essentially, they were "offering" me a deal on the bars at the price they had on them. I asked if they could sell me the bars at regular price so I could use the certificate and it was a no go. (even though the certificate also states "good on anything in the store") I told the guys that it was a really crappy situation being that customers should not be forced to purchase "high margin" items just so they get a better deal out of the advertising trade they did. I know this is not the fault of the guys working at the store but is a problem at the manager/owner level. In conclusion - DO NOT shop at Max Muscle. With situations like this, it just shows that they have a total lack of corporate integrity and for that reason you wont see me there. PS- I was able to return the certificates I purchased back to AGM and YourRadioStore.com, (but not after driving from Easton DR. to Coffee Rd and back to reurnt them spending an easy $15 in gas in my truck) read more

I've been to a lot of different nutrition stores and this one has to definitely be my favorite. The crew here is awesome. First visit I met Sam, and this last visit I met Neill and Gill. Great guys. Very helpful and always informational. Every time I come in I learn something new. I love that all I have to do is tell them my current fitness goals, and they are quick to help me make sure my supplement stack is on point. But also take the time to explain the reason and what they do. read more

This is my 3rd time coming into this Max Muscle and every time I come in the customer service is always exceptional. The guys in here are very knowledgable with the products, and knew exactly what I was looking for. They really cater to your needs here and that's what's important to me in any establishment I walk in to. They also gave me some samples to try which I thought was awesome. If you want quality products and advice on what product and supplements that will fit your lifestyle, this is definitely the place to go.

Over the years I've gone to many "sports nutrition" stoores and have found that teh staff at Max Muscle are at the top of the chain. They know the right product for what your goals are and are very friendly. read more

As this Max Muscle is by my work, I have been in here probably six times. The people who work here are knowledgeable and provide samples for the products I buy. It seems like the products are a bit pricey, but I am not sure. This is really the onlystore of this type I have been to.The staff is nice, and if you buy a little more there are some discounts, at least for the Emerge product I like. I will return, when I am out of the products purchased today. read more

The team is great here, the staff really helps you get the right things for the goals you have, they also dish out more than supplements they also give you tips and ideas on how you should maximize what you buy, workouts diets etc., which is awesome you learn some things they're not entitled to do all that but they take pride knowing the next time you come in or walk out they impacted your results. I'm trying to bulk and I've gain in a few months thanks to these guys and they help my girl tighten up and looking real fit I enjoy coming back, this isn't a bull shit paid review I truly recommend people to check these guys out. read more

The guy working there tried selling me "pro hormones" . He knew I was 17 years old and was convincing me to buy them for $200 he would throw in pill to rebuild my liver. This should be illegal to be selling to people. I almost ruined my life. Worst place ever and expensive read more

The owner here is really cool. They don't try to sell you on things you don't want and or need. They can talk to you about your goals and what you are taking and help you find the bests supplements for you. I don't have a lot of money, so I feel like I get the most bang for my buck at this store. read more

I came in looking for a Lenny & Larrys complete cookie since they were out at Target where I normally get them. I usually buy them for $5.75 for a box of 4 which is about $1.45 each. I kindly asked if they have any sales or promotions because the same product cost twice as much! The sales person looked at me funny when I asked. At least the store was clean. read more

This was my first trip to a nutrition store, so I was pretty nervous, but the guys working were really cool and not pushy at all. What I liked most is that I was able to try samples of everything before purchasing. I got a protein and a preworkout that both taste great! They also gave me samples of a few other products. I will definitely be going back!! read more
