Always had the best experience! Been working out here for 5 months! Reccomend to anyone and everyone! Forever grateful and happy with my experience. read more

If you want to change your body shape seriously, I recommend Gerson at OC personal training. I have been playing sports all my life and pretty athletic. But I realized my butt is always not my favorite shape, my upper arms were getting saggy, I have started to have muffin top, and most importantly I saw a lot of people who got injuries from other sports. I started 3 times a week with 1 hour each time. I lost 10 pounds and my jean size dropped from 4 to 0-2 in 3 months. I also controlled my diet. But I clearly started to see more muscles and the muscle lines I have never seen. I am in training with him almost 2 years now. Now I go there 2-3 times 30 minutes for each time a week. I haven't had any injuries from other sports anymore and feel stronger. I strongly recommend him! read more

Ben is a great trainer, he trained me for a little over a month. I wanted some guidance as to how to do workouts with the right technique. He showed me a great amount of upper and lower body workouts to work on and how to do them correctly. His guidance helped me so that when I do certain workouts on my own, I do them correctly and don't injure myself. I would recommend him to anyone who is looking for a helpful and nice personal trainer as well as develop good technique. read more

OC Personal Training offers a refreshingly cozy and welcoming atmosphere. From our very first session, Stephanie, my personal trainer, has been incredibly supportive, knowledgeable, and motivating. She took the time to truly understand my fitness goals, limitations, and even my sometimes wavering motivation levels. Stephanie's training sessions are always well-planned and tailored to my specific needs. She pushes me just the right amount, challenging me to improve without ever making me feel overwhelmed or discouraged. She is amazing!! If you're looking for a friendly and supportive gym environment and a highly skilled and motivating personal trainer, I wholeheartedly recommend OC Personal Training, and especially encourage you to book a session with Stephanie. read more

I started training with Ben a few years ago when I had no knowledge of fitness and he really opened my eyes to the possibility of weight lifting and changing my lifestyle! He has his own experience with bodybuilding and it translates very well into his personal training style. No matter what your experience level is Ben is a great trainer and will help you to attain any life style or more physique goal you have! read more

Josh from OC Personal Training in Brea is hands down the best trainer I've ever worked with. When I started seeing Josh 4 months ago I could barely run 1 lap without wanting to collapse and tap out. Since then I've lost 25lbs and I feel the healthiest I've ever felt. Josh knows what he's taking about, always has a positive attitude, and he always pushes you to do better. Technique is his primary focus to ensure you don't hurt yourself and always addresses any muscle pains right away. He is extremely reliable, punctual, and is determined to help you reach your goals. The gym has a great atmosphere and great people who work there I highly recommend OC Personal Training read more

My first time exercising with a personal trainer! I've exercised by myself at home -- consistently for months -- but I never felt this kind of burning before! It's like fire... which means it's WORKING! I feel so much stronger in my legs, which is exactly what I asked for. I can withstand back to back catering and serving now! Feels good to be able to help my parents with the restaurant like a pro. :,) The equipment is well maintained and clean. The trainers are attentive, supportive, and so fun to be around. Thanks for all your help OC Personal Training! I'll add photos when the month is over. :)) read more

Did a personal training consultation with Angel and she kicked my butt! Decent place with plenty of parking. Small place but it has everything I need. Thanks!!! :) read more

Me and my fiancé reached out to Gerson to get personal training and to lose our COVID weight in time for our wedding. From day one, Gerson was responsive and attentive to our personal goals. It's been over two weeks and I already see a difference. Coming from someone who never worked out and hated exercising, Gerson makes each workout interesting and knows how to push you without overworking you. I'm super happy with my results and can't wait to continue working and on my fitness goals! read more

Gerson is a great and patient trainer. My first day I indicated key body parts I wanted to improve & I've seen positive results. He's helped me build my strength and I never thought I'd be able to squat 95 lbs. If you struggle with consistency, sign up with Gerson. He's GGGGGGREAT! read more

Great place to get 1 on 1 training. Clean place & almost always something new to try for equip & in the frig.. read more

OC Personal Training - This is a great place to get 1 on 1 training. I'm glad I made the decision to meet with Gerson. 3 months later and I am still going strong. - Gyms Near Me - Brea, California

I greatly enjoy starting my day at OC personal gym. Ben is my trainer and he is the best. I have seen results quickly following his direction and knowledge. His expertese has helped me outside of the gym as well as creating an all around healthier, stronger and wiser version of myself. Gershon is friendly and the gym is welcoming. I highly recommend read more

Gerson is a great trainer--he's super friendly, patient, and easy to get along with. I learned a lot of new exercises and feel great about my progress after a month. If you're looking for a trainer who will push you but not in the "scream in your face boot camp" style, Gerson is your man! read more

Oops! Ignore previous review. Wrong gym. Apologies - never been here but sounds great.

I enjoyed working out with Gerson. He was kind and cared for me well. I would recommend you to get personal training from him. You will feel your skill is improving and the body shape changes. He will only teach you for about 45 mins. read more

this place has been great clean and training has been a great way to relieve some of the stress I've seen results and the studio makes me feel very safe and comfortable during this covid time. I look forward on my sessions and have seen results. read more

I have been working out with Gerson for 3 weeks now and I have improved in my strength and endurance. Gerson has helped me get back into fitness and has worked around our schedule. I have definitely seen improvements and look forward to continue working with him. read more

I've been working out with Gerson for somewhere in the neighborhood of 5 years. Over that time, he's moved locations, gained many new pieces of equipment, and added new trainers to the mix. I've worked out with him 2-3 times a week, almost every week for all these years so it's safe to say I've never gotten bored with my workouts. He's helped me rehab an injured back and his knowledge and ability to modify exercises for me has helped me continue to get stronger. I'd highly recommend him except I don't like having to compete for appointment times, so feel free to try out any of the other trainers here! read more

Awesome gym to work at, great personal training. Would recommend if you need a gym to workout.

I personally love personal training versus going to the gym and doing things on my own! This program is the best and I have seen results in such a small amount of time! Our personal trainer does a check up at the beginning and marks your progress which is great! Absolutely the best! read more

Can't find a better trainer in the OC, G is the best! If you're looking to get in shape, this is the place to do it.

This gym is great! Staff is super friendly and gym is kept clean and orderly. Perfect gym to get you back in shape and safe from over crowd. I'm so glad i found this gym during this pandemic. read more

Gerson is a solid personal trainer, and love his positivity and cool and calm demeanor!! Total opposite of a roided out meathead yelling at you to do more pushups. I look forward to his workouts which are challenging yet doable. read more

1.5ish-2 stars. Being a nice, kind person doesn't pay off when you have a fitness goal to attain. I bought the Groupon deal and I was hoping to get a decent workout. Unfortunately, as one earlier reviewer noted- Gerson doesn't seem present in his training sessions. I also feel as though if a person pays for personal training that a level of pushing towards that goal would be needed. The workouts were basic at best, many of which a lay person can find better in a muscle magazine. Additonally, I don't know how you feel, but for me the physical presence of a trainer should look as though they have had fitness goals of their own. My trainer appeared as though not in top quality shape. I won't recommend this gym. read more

I have been starting my training 3 weeks ago and I can't tell you enough how happy I'm . First of all this year I have been feeling so tired , not motivated to go to my gyms ( yes few of them lol) and i have been eating bad too ... so after hearing so many good things about this place and about Gerson I decided to give it a try ! After only 3 weeks so 9 sessions ( you can do as little as one and as many as you want , do 3 it's cheaper ) I lost weight , lost body fat , look leaner and better. I have some cellulite on my legs and it's going away as well . Gerson is just a perfect trainer , he is pushing little by little , he knows exactly what everyone needs , he listens and he is not fake like many trainers in this city . The price is cheaper than other gym and it's 1 hour training not like LA fitness or 24 hours with their 30 min for 40$ lol . Anyway I'm so amazed to see some result in such a little time which is pushing me to continue . I will try to post some pictures next time ! Trust me give it a try . The first session is free . read more

I can't say enough about my experience with OC Personal Training and Gersen, specifically. I'm incredibly thankful to have found such empathetic navigation along my personal health journey. I'm stoked to be apart of what is being built--thank you!! read more

OC Personal Training - 1 hr workout that's a ton of fun - Gyms Near Me - Brea, California

This is the beat personal gym. Jay is my trainner and he is best one who I ever met. I highly recommend him. Great job Jay!

The gym I have membership at gave me a free consultation to tell me what my 'health age' is. I'm 41 but they said my health age is 47. They concluded I'm at 25% body fat and borderline obese (I'm 5'9 and was 157 pounds at the time), my lower body strength is acceptable and my upper body strength needs work, so they wanted me to sign up for 3 months of 3 training sessions per week for $700/month. No thanks. Found Gerson quite randomly on craigslist and he gave me a free consultation. The more accurate body scan at NutriShop said i'm at 20% body fat (which is way different from 25%) so we decided to try a month's workouts to reduce that. Fourteen sessions later, I lost 2.2 pounds of body fat (1.3% overall) and gained .7 pounds of muscle. Weight down to 154. Not bad, but definitely hard work. We focused on overall body strength, with a regimen of free weights and some cable machines. I definitely see results in my fitness and the way my clothes fit, and I feel great! He's a nice guy and encouraging, flexible with scheduling, and knows what he's talking about. I highly recommend him! read more

I've been training with Gerson for about three weeks, and I'm already improving with my strength and fitness since my first session. He is also affordable, about $15-$20 cheaper than most personal trainers in the area. Gerson's availability is also flexible. He can schedule you around your own schedule, which is great because mine is always changing! I'll be training for three months, if I'm able to afford training, I will be continuing for the rest of the year. read more

Josh is The best! He is really good! I have been working with him for years. ************

I was looking for a Small gym where I can really learn how to use all the equipment and OC personal training has been just that! I was introduced to my personal trainer Jennifer V. and she has been so motivating and really helping me learn different exercises to shape my body. I have some back pain that I deal with and she is always conscious of the types of exercises we do together. I love working with her! Just finished 4 weeks of training and going for another round! read more

I was in need of getting moving and going to the gym just never happened with my busy mom schedule. Stephanie comes to my house and makes it happen. Started training about a month ago and I already feel more energized and toned. She targets areas each day and pushs me which I would not do myself if I was at the gym. Great music and always on time and flexible. I can't wait to keep going and see what positive changes this has on my life :-) read more
