I recommend this gym to anyone who is serious about fitness and who loves the camaraderie of great, friendly coaches who are able to get to know the people at the gym individually. It is an experience I have never felt elsewhere, and I have had years of fitness in running, swimming, Crossfit, memberships at other gyms. Pro Fit Training Gym is incomparable. I am happy I found it.
I had just finished a year and a half of going in and out of physical therapy for my shoulder when I finally was given the okay to hit the gym. I didn't hesitate to look for a place that offered one-on-one coaching, which is what I wanted. I didn't want to risk injury again. I started off with a Groupon at Pro Fit Training Gym and after those 4 sessions I was hooked. I had to buy a membership and keep coming back.
What I appreciate most about the coaching/training at Pro Fit Training Gym is the organization. Detailed notes are kept of my unique progress. Any coach I happen to work with, even if it is a new coach I haven't met before, will already know my shoulder pain issues and will modify the day's work-out to accommodate. They know how much I lifted the last time I was in the gym, and they will know from the notes if the weight was fine or if I can do a heavier weight. This is excellent because it is so much information that I would not remember on my own. These coaches are knowledgeable about fitness. They know which exercises are best, which form to use, how to readjust my form to make sure I won't injure myself. I need that. And I love that they know how to make sure I get the best work out.
I like that they understand (I understand it, too) that fitness will be a lifelong plan. I do not expect to recover from my injury in one day. I know it will take time. I like that no one rushes me to do 'more'. That shows me that the Pro Fit Training Gym coaches are not only knowledgeable about fitness, but they also respect fitness training itself. They aren't in it just for helping a person get a high from lifting heavy weights. They are serious about helping the person get to the point where they are ready to lift that weight in due time.
The coaches encouraged me to go to the gym even on days when I am not scheduled to work-out with a trainer one-on-one. I show up on two extra days to do cardio. Here is where I appreciate the gym even more: because the coaches encourage me to try new things that I never thought possible. I didn't think I could do the StairMaster. I now can. Likewise, I didn't think I could lift a certain number of lbs. I surprised myself by being able to do so easily. I realize now that when I had gone to the gym in previous years I hadn't really done my full potential, but now in Pro Fit where I am under one-on-one guidance I can do more than I thought I could.
The friendliness and encouragement from the trainers are in the right dosage: they tell me I do a great job, but they don't shove the enthusiasm down my throats in a fake way. It is a fun, genuine encouragement, and that makes me feel very comfortable to keep coming back.
I enjoy this gym, and I am happy to be a member. I hope the reader of this review gives Pro Fit Training Gym a try and likes it as much as I do. read more
