It's a little far from me in the South Bay but I knew I had to try it. For parking, the lot is shared with other businesses so when I got there, it was full and parked in the lot down the street. I wouldn't suggest to park in front of the NXPT if it's the games classes since we're using wall balls near cars. When I found the class on classpass for Wednesday night, the name of it was a little confusing because it said "OCR/Games/Hyrox/Deka" so I didn't really know what that meant until I showed up to the class to learn that depending on when the next event is, that is the type of training they're doing. So my class focused on the Hyrox because the Anaheim event is in five weeks. Hannibal is the trainer and he was friendly with a quick introduction and had to jump on a call before class started. I asked around to sign the waiver and got someone to help me. I wanted to make sure that didn't slow me down starting the class on time. Thankfully I do strength training and hot yoga outside of this class so I felt I could keep up but having been to new classes before, they seem to take care of newbies with just a few more instructions. I ended up figuring it out and maybe the style of this gym is no hand holding but I ended up asking other attendees in the class about the structure. Most of the moves in this class were standard but when it came to Sled, I wasn't sure in my form. I'd suggest when they get newbies in these games classes to ask them if they've done anything like this before and if not, show them the proper technique of the moves. That helps in the actual events since form matters and also prevents injuries. Overall, it was a good experience and I'll be back!

I wanted the compliments to continue. The goal was just to work out. But I keep coming back for other reasons. Or if my sister nags me to. As all the superb staff know, it gets busy at this location. Bicycle class with Lupe keeps me active Monday, Gentle Yoga with Dalal is amazing. Gotta hand it to Jose for helping out and managing things to help us enjoy the gym better. Appreciate Jess for the friendly customer service. I really hate to name drop. But in general, the staff make you feel like a rockstar. As you age you become the difficult customer you dealt with when you were younger (or not that much). Thanks for the attention, thank you all gym staff, Alex. Also to all gym staff past and present. As I've gained weight and my back tightened I've moved to the bicycles more. That all could change. Yoga/stretching helps. I've tried some new machines and exercises. Gave up some. Earbuds go in so I don't stare at you. Music really helps to get lost in and motivate the workout. Say "what's up" if you can, mention the Yelp review. I highly recommend CHUZE if you want an affordable gym in the La Mesa / Lemon Grove region.

You adjust your weight and resistance and intensity levels so it's "personalized." Love the hands-on trainers who answer questions and check my form to help me maximize results, keeping me motivated and energized. It's nice to arrive and have everything set up, and then leave without putting all the weights, bikes, skiers, steps, ropes, bands, and weight balls away! The rating is for the defensive owner (Casey) who sends multiple emails with attractive specials--without the small print...and there is always a catch to the promise. This has happened to me three times over three years. As a professor who works for every dollar and reads ads at face value, I am not a fan of their "deal-no-deal" promos and always feel nickel-and-dimed. This owner also has not reduced class sizes or offered/required masks (even for trainers) during government-mandated COVID restrictions during the Omicron SARS variant because "we should be beyond lockdowns by now."

I absolutely 100% love this YMCA they played a huge part in my life! As I came here for at least 15 years of my life :) I used to come here pretty much all day long. I'd lap swim when they opened up. Then i'd go workout and lift weights. From age 11 to 18. The staff were always so friendly and helpful. Then once I was an adult I'd only came to workout and lift weights. Then we moved out of SD. We came by to check it out because it got a huge makeover. Looking good John Davis Family YMCA! You still have very friendly helpful employees and a well maintained facility! Because of my awesome experiences here at this Y. I made a promise to take my kids to the Y. So we had all our kids become Y babies too. All of our 5 children learned how to swim at another Y because all of the YMCA's we've been to are family friendly. So a huge thanks to the YMCA of LA Mesa CA for being AMAZING! This Y was like a 2nd home to me! So many good memories:) & life learning skills!

I enjoy coming to the John A. Davis YMCA because it's one of the smaller YMCA locations, yet it…read morestill has everything I need for a great workout. One of the biggest advantages is being able to get in, get my workout done, and get out without dealing with long waits for machines. I visit several YMCA locations depending on where my errands take me, and this location has always been a convenient stop for an hour-long workout. Unfortunately, I've had two separate interactions with the same front desk employee that left me feeling uncomfortable and unwelcome. About a week ago, I was sitting in the pool area taking an emergency phone call. The area was completely empty, and the facility wasn't scheduled to close for roughly another 40 minutes. The front desk employee approached me and abruptly stated, "We are closing, I need to lock this area." To be clear, I had no issue with the area being closed or needing to leave. My concern was entirely with the delivery. As many of us know, it's often not what you say but how you say it. A simple, "Excuse me, we're preparing to close this area and I need to lock it up," would have been perfectly fine. Instead, the tone and facial expression came across as unnecessarily harsh. I gathered my belongings and left without argument, but even the person on the emergency call immediately asked, "Who was that?" after hearing the interaction. When I explained what had happened, they also commented on how rude the tone sounded. I've been a longtime YMCA member and have visited many locations over the years, and I've never left feeling the way I did that day. Then during a more recent visit, I brought my two teenage sons with me. After scanning my membership card, the same employee stopped me and asked, "Who do we have here with you?" while looking directly at my membership profile. My sons are listed on my account, and their photos are visible on my profile. I answered with their names, but she repeated the question louder. I then repeated their names louder as well, and only then did she respond with, "Okay." The interaction felt unnecessarily confrontational, especially in front of my children. They are 15 and 17 years old and more than capable of confirming their own names if verification was needed. The exchange felt awkward and embarrassing, and even my sons immediately asked me afterward, "What's wrong with her?" I honestly didn't have an answer. I want to be fair and acknowledge that I don't know this employee personally, nor do I know what may have been going on in her day. However, after two separate encounters, I do believe there is room for growth in how members are approached and spoken to. Sometimes when people become comfortable in a position, customer service can become mechanical, and the human element gets lost. I would also be dishonest if I didn't acknowledge how the interactions made me feel. As an African-American woman, I couldn't help but wonder whether there was an underlying bias influencing the way I was being treated. I hope that is not the case. However, the contrast between these private interactions and the otherwise welcoming atmosphere of the YMCA left me questioning whether I was being viewed differently than other members. With that said, every other staff member I've encountered has been kind, helpful, and accommodating. The YMCA itself continues to be a wonderful community space. I love seeing both the older and younger generations working out together, participating in programs, and building a sense of community. That's one of the things that makes this location special. Overall, I still appreciate this YMCA and everything it offers. However, these experiences have made me reconsider when I visit. Going forward, I may choose to come earlier in the day or adjust my schedule altogether if these interactions continue. I genuinely hope this feedback is received in the spirit it's intended--not as an attack, but as an opportunity for improvement. Great facilities are built not only on equipment and programs, but also on how members are made to feel when they walk through the door.

You can hear constant barking sounds at La Jolla Cove, and the source of this noise is the California sea lion. To distinguish between a seal and a sea lion, look at the ears: seals have only ear holes, whereas sea lions have visible, protruding ears. You will find far more seals and sea lions on land than swimming in the water, as they need to spend at least seven to eight hours a day out of the water to rest and regulate their body temperature. What makes La Jolla Cove special is that humans and animals share the beach; people, seals, and sea lions all swim in the same waters. Wildflowers bloom around the beach, and the area is home to a variety of wildlife, including cormorants and seagulls, alongside the seals and sea lions.

The other trainers are here to coach and build their businesses. Everyone is working to improve themselves and help as many people as possible. The other personal trainers here at Werk Fitness in East County are very professional and courteous, always being mindful of space and asking nicely before taking something you might be using. The owner of the personal training facility, Armando, is always very receptive to feedback from the coaches. Whenever there is a complaint it is addressed and dealt with quickly. You can tell that he definitely cares about the happiness and success of the trainers. I'm glad to rent gym space here, especially since I get access to TWO locations. I can accommodate my clients no matter what part of San Diego they live in. The La Mesa location has great natural light from the big windows which I love especially in the afternoon. And there's plenty of parking which is rare in San Diego in general!

Walking in you have ample space to place your gym bags and what-have-you's in the shelves. You walk into the sprawling gym and it's sort of a graduation feeling. This is the real deal. You come in here for results. You come in here to change your life. You come in here and leave it all on the gym floor. The workout: Since Coach Randy bought the gym he's been teaching 100% of the classes. He's recently (fall 2018) hired on some new staff that's just as ample. The workouts are simple yet totally thrill you. +Quick warm up, sometimes this includes a run, some stretching using props he has at the gym. Keeping in mind all of this adding to your own personal tool box. As a girl who loves zen and yoga, Randy's taught me a thing or two about stretching and showed me many new things. I do my best to come in every day with a beginners mind. +strength: barbells with the weights, dumbbells and kettle bells. Likely one will be used for the strength. +WOD: kicks your behind. It's awesome. High intensity cardio mixed with a bit of weight. Sometimes the playlist needs tweaking but I'm working on da coach. The people: The community is a wonderful group of people that have helped me in more then just through my running. if the community here sees a new face we make sure to be warm and give a shout-out during a workout. Sh** can get hard and I've made numerous new friends by bonding when I thought I was gonna die. The staff: I only know Wes and Randy but both have incredible vast knowledge of the workout world and they're both walking proof of it. You take one look at them and know you want to learn from someone who has made it. The results: Randy has trained me personally, and I've been in what seems like hundreds of hours of his classes. I've been at the gym for 3 or so months and barely recognize my body. I am astonished at what I've been able to accomplish, and as a beginner at that. Not just my body has changed, I've built myself into a healthier version of me, made incredible friendships, healed, and fell apart in this gym. Needless to say if you're into change this is the place to do it in. You're safe here. Come join us.

What I like is that there's a plan for those who want a big barbell gym but don't need the training, it comes at a lower cost then the regular membership. If ur looking for a quality weightlifting gym, this is the best in all of east county!

I called CFLa Mesa and left a message (during business hours) and no one has called me back as of 5 days ago. I decided to call again today to hopefully talk with someone about getting locked in at the gym... but the voice mail box is full and can not receive anymore messages. After seeing how little they must care about perspective customers... Im surprised that they have any members at all. I will gladly take my business somewhere it is wanted. Thanks for nothing, you should invest in a receptionist.

Fit Societe has gone through a LOT of effort to be welcoming, and encourage their members to keep coming back for classes at any of their 3 locations. I have been going for several months now, and it has been great. They are very accommodating in their workouts based on your goals and/or injuries you might have. I have been to other similar gyms, but generally never made it past 3 months due to injuries. Here they are able to push you and help you achieve your goals, while at the same time keeping you healthy and wanting to come back. The instructors have all been great as well! Classes are for anyone regardless of their fitness and skill level. You have never set foot in a gym, they modify the workout to fit your needs. You are a college athlete, they can modify the workout to challenge you. Have a career that involves a lot of physical activity, they can modify the workout to fit your goals. If you cannot tell by now I highly recommend Fit Societe no matter your fitness needs or goals.
