This is NOT a gym. Its a training facility. There are personal trainers who will work with you to…read moremeet your goals. We have been working with one trainer, Patrick, for years so when he moved here a few years back, we moved with him. As for the facility itself, it is such a relief to go to a "gym" where the staff is constantly cleaning!!! And disinfectant is readily available after your training session. Plenty of equipment for all your needs. Whether you are a novice or training for a competition, you will find the right tools to help you with your goals. Now, as it is a training gym, you have to sign up with a trainer. I would recommend talking with a few and see which one best fits your needs, budget and your schedule. Also, you may want to sit in and maybe see a few trainers at work. Again, Patrick is our guy. While he previously helped me maintain a healthy body, he has repeatedly helped me rehab from surgery and injuries. Just this year I was diagnosed with a frozen shoulder. After weeks of professional therapy I finally went back to work with Patrick. His sports background and muscle/bone knowledge helped him create a custom routine for me. By the time I went back to see my physical therapist I was raising by "frozen" hand and amazed my therapist at the amount of progress made in a few weeks. Yeah, pretty amazing!! There are showers for those who need to go to work after their workout and seats for waiting if you arrive early, though your trainer will probably recommend you roll out or warm up to maximize your workout. Oh, and there are a few staff trainers as well as other independent trainers you can work with. Absolutely no reason why you can't find a perfect trainer at the perfect location!

I contacted Chris at Atlas in regards to a personal trainer who I paid for sessions with, who was…read morethen terminated from the gym. I had contacted the trainer and received no reply, and so I finally reached out and left a message for the staff at Atlas. Chris's wife reached out that night and I was very impressed that they were so quick, she gave me Chris's number and said to reach out to him to get everything figured out. I messaged Chris the next day to see how they can help, per the phone conversation the night before. I sent him all of my text messages showing the personal trainer cancelling, schedule that was supposed to happen, and amount that I paid to this trainer. He said that he would talk to his guys to see about working something out since I paid and received a quarter of the training promised. The discussion with Chris happened on January 7th, I reached back out January 22nd to check in and heard nothing. It is now January 28th and it is silent. I have not received a refund or any makeup sessions with a different trainer as discussed. I am very reasonable and willing to work things out with what they can do to help me, but I am disappointed that I received no update and no messages back on this subject. At the very minimum, I expect to receive an answer - my advice, spend your hard earned money at a gym that actually follows up, cares about clients that come to their facility, and doesn't hire people who can't be trusted.

I can't say enough good things about Body Focus Fitness and the owner/personal trainer, Kevin…read moreFreeland. To sum it up... I started going 3x a week to get in shape for my wedding. I went in weighing about 148 (I'm 5'9'')... and, I lost 18 pounds in about two months. (Keep in mind, I did absolutely NO working out on my own... So the results are ALL thanks to Kevin). I also built arm and stomach muscle I'd never seen on myself before. On top of that, I changed my eating habits based on Kevin's recommendation... and I will be a Paleo 'dieter' for life. Turns out, grains were the root of my stomach problems... I am a person who absolutely hates working out. I won't go to the gym on my own. But Kevin keeps your sessions to about 30 minutes... and he varies the exercises to keep things interesting. Kettle bells are awesome. I feel like those give you the biggest results for the least amount of work. He also incorporates barbells, sledge hammers/tires (my fave!), etc. Kevin also offers bootcamp classes on top of your one-on-one sessions. I have not tried one of these, but it's certainly a nice bonus for anybody who wants to squeeze in an extra workout. I've worked with a Lifetime fitness trainer in the past, and let me tell you... they don't even compare to Kevin. Plus, they're at least twice as expensive. I highly recommend giving Body Focus Fitness a try. I'm a changed person because of this place!!!

I have to be honest, I didn't want to write a review on my favorite business because I have to keep…read morea few hidden gems of Tempe all to my uber-selfish self. But dude... this is the best workout in Phoenix, and definetly the best I have ever done for myself. The workout is different every day. Your trainer will create exercises for you to complete that will target groups of muscles to work together rather than just one repetitive gym machine motion. You will use different kinds of props to keep you distracted from the task at hand, such as dumbbells, kettlebells, ropes, tires, sledgehammers, pull up bars, and your own pathetic, grunting ass. Is it difficult? Absolutely! It will kick your ass from start to finish! But it's over faster than you think, and the combination of strength training + cardio keeps your metabolism humming for hours. And if you want to see what this workout has done for me, I uploaded my own photos for your viewing pleasure.

I'm going to do my best to put in to words what I've felt joining this community. I was finding…read moremyself looking for a gym that could provide something more than just a great workout. In finding Suffer City I've experienced something far beyond what I was looking for. The community is vibrant. The coaches are welcoming and attentive to new members. They will challenge you but also have your best interest in mind with modifications when needed. Much more than that is a community of members that will embrace you where you are personally on your fitness journey. No matter what your fitness level this is for you! The workouts themselves are some of the best I've seen. I've previously competed at a D1 level in athletics and find the workouts to be just as challenging if not more challenging than any I've participated in throughout my life. I've done anything from box gyms, CrossFit, and other boutique fitness concepts. Suffer City is the REAL DEAL. If you are looking for a fitness community with great owners and coaches, look no further. Suffer City has you covered.

I could go on and on about Suffer City. First, a little background about me: when I started…read moretraining with Jason I hadn't exercised in 11 years. No joke, 11 years! Long story short, I had some joint damage in my left ankle and knee and was scared to exercise. The doctor way-back-when told me that I'd probably always have damaged joints and trouble exercising. I also had TRIPLETS a few years ago and gained a lot of weight that hadn't come off. A friend motivated me to just give it a shot and try exercising. I started training with Jason and at another gym too--one of those "boot camp" type places. Working with Jason, I changed my diet, started exercising consistently, and pretty quickly lost almost 30 pounds. And I did a Spartan race, which I still can't believe. The other gym I tried--and most other gyms I've tried--are intimidating, too cliquey, too crowded, and I didn't see results. The boot camp had these weird workouts that seemed totally insurmountable and gave me a feeling of defeat before I even started (like weird "1000 rep" challenges--no, I'm not gonna get through 1000 burpees in half an hour). Suffer City is different. Here are the great things about Suffer City: -The class sizes are limited, I think to about 12 people. So, you're not ramming into other people while trying to get through the workout. -The workouts are varied--so varied! There are different sessions with totally different exercises every day. It's never boring. The sculpt sessions focus on building muscle; the move sessions focus on cardio; the lift sessions focus on lifting but the weight is varied based on your ability/what you're comfortable with. I'm always fascinated and downright impressed by all of the different exercises Jason and Danielle come up with. -It's not cliquey. You don't walk in and feel like everyone is glaring at you. The people make this place really great. Everyone is friendly, people cheer each other on and provide motivation. And if you go at a consistent time you start to see the same people, get to know them, and look forward to seeing them. I look forward to training in the morning and seeing my usual group! When I miss a morning I get that whole feeling-of-missing-out, which motivates me to go back again. -You don't have to be a superstar athlete to train here, but you also can be a superstar athlete and train here. Frankly, I was one of those kids who was always last picked for the team in PE. I've always sucked at sports and exercise, though I've gotten so much better training with Jason and now Danielle. But you can come in here as an adult who was a kid who sucked at PE and sports in general and train well, tone your body, and lose the fat. You can also come in here as a great athlete and learn to kick even more ass. I train with people who inspire me every day--as I'm grunting and groaning through workouts and trying not to curse too much, I see others powering through and just kicking ass; and that's not in an intimidating way, but in a way that's motivating and makes me want to kick ass too. -The facility is great! It's slick and stocked with good weights, kettle bells, self-propelled treadmills (which take a run or two to get used to, but now I prefer them to the treadmills that do the running for you--plus, the self-propelled ones seem safer), assault bikes (with which you'll have a love-hate relationship), monkey bars, these cool ever-so-slightly squishy boxes of varying sizes for box jumps, medicine balls (I can't remember if there's a modern term for those things), pull up bars, and other stuff I'm probably forgetting. OH--heart rate monitors! You can buy a relatively inexpensive heart rate monitor and watch your heart rate on the TV monitors. This is really cool, and when you feel like you're at your limit and dying it's nice to look up and verify that, yes, I'm at 93% of my max heart rate right now and not just insane. -You'll see results. This isn't like a big box gym where you kind of just go through the motions, don't really get out of breath, and wonder why you're not getting any better at training, losing any weight, or whatever you goal may be. You work out to exhaustion--and that makes you get consistently better. After training here I have more energy during the day and hell, I'm usually in a better mood and can handle more of whatever junk the day throws my way. -If you show up a little early there's time to stretch and foam roll before the session, and there's a cool-down period built in. Even if you're not early, there's stretching and prep before the session starts, and a short run and bike to get your heart rate up. I love this because at the last gym where I trained, there was none of that--and I always felt like I was gonna injure myself just showing up, not stretching at all, and launching into some insane workout. -Finally, the price! The prices are totally reasonable, especially for small class sizes. GO!!

What you need is a positive & knowledgeable trainer (Justin is the BEST) to push you that extra bit to fine tune your nutrition and exercise. Justin is amazing, the gym equipment is top notch and the cost is great for what you get, which is someone that cares about your progress. The first month is difficult because it's about breaking bad habits and creating a healthy lifestyle. For me that included eating more often and it took about three weeks before I became hungry every three hours (I'm still in awe that that is true...so much food, you have to feed those muscles and give your body the fuel to train). I have trained with Justin for a couple of months now and the first thing I have noticed is that I sleep better, and the next thing I noticed was less neck and back pain. The weight and tone started becoming more pronounced by month two and now a couple weeks into month three I have a 4 pack almost a 6 pack and noticeable muscle definition developing across my whole body. Best thing is I'm enjoying the process and Justin is the nicest, most knowledgeable trainer I've ever seen and he delivers the results. I've spoken with a lot of his clients on the cardio machines before our session and everyone states the amazing journey he's been able to guide them on. See results, feel better, make yourself a priority. Nowadays I don't hurt my back every time I lift my daughter. Justin is a must, the only trainer you need. He will design your meal plan and exercise regime and lead you through the workouts. Trust the process and do it 100% and you will see results. Justin Justin Justin ask for Justin but you can't have my time spots!

It has been more than 6 years since I walked through the doors of Craig Rintoul's 5150 Sports…read morePerformance gym, at that time a lifetime athletic person, but a novice to weightlifting and serious sports training. I felt overwhelmed at first, but Coach Craig's passion and enthusiasm soon made me fall in love with the rigor of sports training and the sport of Olympic Weightlifting. Every aspect of Craig's coaching illustrates his deep understanding of biomechanics and training methodology. He is extremely skilled in breaking down complex concepts into simple, manageable steps, and demonstrating these concepts in ways that resonate with a person's learning style. His detailed and consistent approach has accelerated my progress, and it is not a day that goes by that I do not learn something new. I cannot speak highly enough about my experience with Coach Craig over all these years I have been training at 5150. What sets him apart is the personal attention he gives to each person who walks into his gym, cognizant of their goals, and their starting level of fitness. Craig's knowledge base is vast, and his passion for sharing this knowledge is exemplified by the patience, dedication, and guidance he has given me over these years. This has been instrumental in transforming into the capable and confident athlete and person I am today. He has pushed me to grow both as an athlete and a person, all the while encouraging me to not put limitations on my abilities. I have now been performing and winning in national and international weightlifting meets for the past two years. It is also notable that I had complete shoulder surgery 3 years ago (for a prior Crossfit injury), and Craig was instrumental in my rehabilitation. He was there every step of the way-- I continued training at his gym after surgery, focusing on not only shoulder and mobility exercises, but many other exercises I was still capable of doing to maintain my level of fitness during the period I was unable to do Olympic lifts. I believe I would not have recovered from shoulder surgery to achieve my fitness level today if it had not been for Craig's steadfast encouragement, assistance and his extensive knowledge of rehab exercises. Besides the physical/training aspect of the sport, Coach Craig has helped me in developing the discipline and mindset required to train, handle anxiety, and perform at a highly competitive level, while also educating me on the equally important aspects of diet, sports nutrition, rest, recovery, and meditation. Craig has always focused on developing the proper foundations for fitness, focusing on proper form and performance of exercises, and not allowing anyone to lift weights heavier than what is appropriate for their level of fitness. He is very mindful of this to minimize the risk of injury to the athlete. I wholeheartedly recommend 5150 Sports Performance to help you achieve your fitness goals, whether it is to perform/complete in a sport, recuperate from an injury or surgery, or to simply to improve your overall fitness level. I feel privileged to have Coach Craig as my coach for these past years. Craig has created a great, safe environment conducive to learning, where everyone is welcoming and supportive of one another. If any of this resonates with you, what are you waiting for?
