I have been a client at Next Level for approximately two and a half years. During this time, I have…read moreworked almost exclusively with two trainers - and when schedules conflicted, I have also worked with four other trainers as 'fill-ins'. I have been thoroughly impressed with the knowledge and professionalism of each trainer, and have learned much from their respective areas of specialization. I can't wait until they move into their new/larger space downtown later this year. The "motto" at Next Level: Don't talk about it...be about it...

I called ASI one day out of curiosity. I had been group training consistently elsewhere for a…read morecouple of years and was looking for a more tailored approach. Chris Dellasega (owner) answered the call and I immediately recognized a level of professionalism, focus and knowledge unparalleled in my experiences so far. Chris was able to assess and build a program to strengthen my weak points and propel all of my PR's to new heights. Every time I reach out with questions he has prompt, concise and effective answers. His programming has eliminated chronic pains I've dealt with for almost 15years. Particularly hip and low back pain using split squats. His prescription of external rotation exercises fixed a shoulder I've been struggling with for over 8 years. I've now been training and learning from Chris for almost a year and I'm feeling stronger and healthier at 32 than any other point in my life. If you're looking for a $10 membership at a corporate gym (with $10 results) to check a box on the list, you'll want to go elsewhere. If you're looking for a tailored effective plan to get healthy, strong or hit new goals in any sport, look no further.

I left Genesis due to the cold, impersonal, money-grabbing nature of the gym. When Genesis took…read moreover from LAC, I was appalled at how they treated the LAC workers and eventually was able to seemingly push most of them out by offering less than inadequate contracts. Unfortunately, the best trainers in town left the gym, and Genesis now employs far inferior, corporate-controlled trainers and cold, impersonal front desk personnel. They all look good in their preppy Genesis polo shirts, so I guess that's what counts. Unfortunate! So I decided to take a look at Athletic Strength Institute. I would encourage everyone who belongs to Genesis to drop your membership and come check out ASI. The owner makes you feel welcome. He is knowledgeable, motivating, and plans individual workouts to fit each of his client's needs. It may not be the biggest gym in town in terms of square footage, but it is the best in terms of what really counts... results.

This gym deserves 5/5 stars, however, the times they are open is VERY limiting…read more Mon-Friday (5AM - 7:30 PM) Saturday (8AM - 1PM) Sunday (9AM - 11AM) If the gym was open a little later on the weekends, like 2PM or 3PM, and open for an extra hour on weekdays, like 8:30 PM or even 9PM, more people would join! I have friends and my sister who all said they would join if they were open a little later. Other than the hours, it's an amazing gym! Being female only, I get amazing workouts in, stretching, take yoga, and find myself there for 2-3 hours when I have the time!

I've been working out at Jayhawker CrossFit for a little over 8 months now and I can easily say…read morethat this is one of my favorite places to be! The workouts are hard but they are scalable to fit your own abilities. When I started I was out of shape and scared to jump into CrossFit. However, the members and coaches at Jayhawker welcomed me in and I left that first class feeling as if I already knew everyone. Since then I've seen so much improvement in my abilities within the gym and I've met some of the greatest people through the Jayhawker community. I really didn't think that I would stick with it walking into that first class alone but now I'm going on 8 months and I try to never miss a class! 100% recommend!!
