I love this place because it is all about functional movement. I started with Donnie when i was…read more40. At the time I was getting nagging injuries all the time. After getting on the program these injuries have been virtually non existent. 15 years later i still hear and moving very well. My wife now comes and loves it, too. If you are looking for a place i would strongly recommend Thrive. The trainers are great!

Three months ago I signed up for a six week fat loss challenge at Detroit THRIVE. The end of six…read moreweeks i was down 15+ lbs of fat. My every day tasks became easier as I grew stronger. In addition to the hour long small group classes, I took advantage of weekly calls with a nutritionist, had access to an In-Body scale to track my progress and made new friends. If your goal is to surround yourself with high value, hard-working, disciplined people who want to achieve a healthier lifestyle through diet and exercise then schedule an appointment to check out this locally owned gym.

This is the absolute best place to work out in metro Detroit and I've worked out literally…read moreeverywhere. Is it sleek, expensive looking and filled with LuLu Lemon mannequins with rictal smiles? Nope. It's a place you go to work out and get the results you're looking for. Everyone is either friendly or concentrating. It's a neighborhood place where you can lift and sweat. I almost don't want to write this because I don't want to have to wait in line for weights, but that's not fair. I love this place.

Staff is very friendly and helpful, always offering to assist with anything and always make sure the gym is clean. Even during the busy hours, the gym has plenty of space, and I never feel the need to work around a movement because machines are taken.

I'm a big orange theory fan. I recently moved and started at this studio. The front area is big and…read morehas two showers and a get ready area. The staff is friendly and the coaches are empowering. The workout is 50 min rotating between a rower, treadmill, and weights. They also have classes with the treadmill only or weights only. The workouts change up a lot with some reoccurring events and challenges. They have benchmark classes where you can track your progress. I'm excited to start transformation challenge in January, and I'm a big OTF fan.

UPDATE: The last couple of months the music has been at a completely reasonable level (occasionally…read moreaudible, but not ruining my life). I still haven't taken a class here, so I can't give 5 stars...but the effort to be neighborly deserves recognition. Disrespectful to the neighbors. I, along with others have had to put in several noise complaints. The landlord is taking action for the noise level rendering him unable to rent out his residences. The dance studio that was marketed to the landlord as a yoga studio, is small enough that the music volume can be controlled, however, the owner jacks the music up and wears a completely unnecessary headset all of which is entirely disruptive to the neighbors. Rude when approached. Overall terrible for the neighborhood. Don't recommend supporting.

Christy's Barre X class is one of my favorite barre classes IN THE COUNTRY! Seriously, I've taken…read morebarre all over the place, and I'm super picky. The sequence was so well-rounded, and her cues made so much sense. I appreciate when I can tell a teacher really knows what she's talking about, and Christy is the real deal. Ana's barre class is also fantastic! Finally, PiYo with Becky which was a killerrrrr and such a good workout. Do it. The studio is absolutely beautiful and the manager Christy (different Christy from the teacher and owner!) is so, so delightful. Prices are great, parking is easy. Great spot!

I have been to multiple trainers and have not had results like I have had with Jeff at Core…read morePhysique. I highly recommend him. The cost of his services are way lower than at other gyms and you get actual one on one training. I really like that I am able to make my own schedule as I have a very busy life. Jeff had created a tailored program for me that has me wanting to go work out. Great for anyone who wants to get into shape but doesn't want to spend millions doing it.

You will not regret going to see Jeff! He changed my life for the best and can absolutely do the…read moresame for you. In April, I was going through a tough breakup and at over 200 pounds. I called Jeff and went in to meet with him and was sold right away by his charm, energy, passion for the job and prices! Now, six months later, I am so glad I made that leap and am 30 pounds down not only due to his support with physical activity but because of his willingness to be there for me emotionally and mentally when necessary as it is of utmost importance to your process to have a supportive, kind and helpful voice even if it's while you are huffing and puffing through your exercises! Going to see Jeff is always bound to be full of laughs and positive energy alongside hard work! He is dedicated and focuses on your needs and tracks your heart rate to get an idea of what you need specifically and at what level you should be working. You'll never feel like you have to throw up, as I have with other trainers (not normal!!). Jeff keeps a close eye on your heart rate and body language to ensure you are working at an optimal level for fat loss or whatever it is you're looking for. After working with Jeff, I recommended him to my brother, who had a completely different set of expectations (muscle gain) than me (weight loss) for Jeff. He walked out of his first session and called me right away to say thanks for recommending Jeff and that he was pretty sure Jeff would change his life :). Sure enough, they've been working together and have made great strides too!! There is honestly no one better to start and finish your journey with! Look no further because you have found the guy that will work by your side to get you what you want! I honestly can't say enough to get you to contact him and just get out there! The drive down Riverside is always beautiful and gives me a bit of time to think before arriving and some time to be really proud on the way home. You'll be happy when you're pants fit nicely or even loosely instead of tight and your skin clears up and people start complimenting you! I know I was! It's all up to you to make the changes, but it's also really important to surround yourself with positive upbeat people who don't judge and who know what they're doing and how to tailor a program to you! Jeff can do all of that and more :) Contact me through Yelp if you have any questions regarding this review :)
