I've been working with Felton for the past few months and I'm loving it. My endurance and strength are increasing; I've a lot more energy; I've lost several pounds of fat at a rate that still allows some flexibility for those extra hard days/weeks when nothing seems to go right (or everything goes right and you want to celebrate). Felton knows his shit. He's motivating, encouraging where he needs to be, and an amazing accountability partner. He's very vested in your fitness success, whatever that means to you.

I've been working with him for about a year now and no matter what my situation is (not feeling well, family problems, etc) he is very understanding and pushes me even when I don't want to work out. I'm not close to being done getting myself in shape, but Felton has taught me how to treat myself better with food and exercise. I always look forward to working with him and I know I won't stop anytime soon.

Review of PDX Muscle Gym - Beaverton, OR…read more I love working out and trying different local gyms and studios, and PDX Muscle really stood out. It's a family-owned private gym and athletic training studio that recently went through a remodel and added more equipment--which was awesome to see. I did a drop-in session, but they also offer monthly memberships, one-on-one training, group training, and nutrition planning. During my visit, I got the chance to talk with two of the trainers. They were incredibly knowledgeable--not just about fitness and training, but also about proper nutrition and hormone health. That kind of insight is exactly what I look for in a gym and in a trainer. Nutrition and hormonal balance are key to real lifestyle changes. It's not always about pushing heavy weights--it's about finding the right balance. I really appreciated the energy at PDX Muscle. The gym is clean, welcoming, and there are no cliques. Everyone was friendly, and you can tell the owners and staff genuinely know what they're doing. Highly recommend if you're serious about training smart and living healthier.

3 months ago, I challenged myself to do something totally crazy - attempt something no one who…read moreknows me would expect - something that, quite frankly, seemed scary to me. I got a personal trainer. With two little ones, I decided it's time I get healthier. But, what do I know about fitness?! From day 1 - I was put at ease by Nick. He met with me, talked to me about my goals and discussed what sort of options were available to me. He never once made me feel like it was a hard sell - more, he was here to answer my questions and encourage me. Most importantly, he assured me that this wasn't going to be something that was going to drive me away. The team was going to work with me at my pace. I decided I'd go three mornings a week - totally crazy, right?! Now, I work with Vince three early mornings a week. Vince is awesome! He's fun to work with, super knowledgeable - always taking the time to explain things to me. And, most importantly, he's encouraging. I'm nowhere NEAR as advanced as some of the people I see, but Vince makes me feel like I have a place there. Just a few months ago, I would have NEVER thought you'd EVER find me in a gym. Now, I look forward to going!

This is my home F45 studio. The energy of the studio is great - everyone is supportive and friendly…read morewith zero gym-bro vibes. The coaches do a great job of helping you with your technique when needed, but also stepping back so you can focus on your workout. There's a different workout every day so it never gets too routine. They have a nice variety of early morning and later in the afternoon. I love that the workouts are exactly 45 minutes. For some reason it's less of a mental barrier to show up and go hard for 45 minutes vs an hour. Guess that means I'll never join an F60.

We worked out here at 9:30 on Sunday using our passport passes. The gym layout is very good with…read morelots of options including a chest press rack and sledge hammers. The coaches were very friendly and quick to help-out when needed. The only thing missing at this F45 location is a 5am workout!

Also, this is aimed at mom's who want to get their "body back" post baby, and I'm not a mom, and I don't intend to be. If that stuff bugs, you, think about getting over it. My butt and my closet and I am so happy I did. I've done this twice now, and I've lost almost 20 pounds, but I'm telling you I look like I've lost more. Eveyone else is telling me, too, and I've gone down at least 4 sizes. Trisha is really key in making this work. She's encouraging, she's sweet, and she's not a mean drill seargent, but you will want to do what she says, even though these workouts are really hard. And it's more than the workouts, you also track your food and turn it in every week, and do stuff to get to the root of what you need in order to make changes, you all work together. Don't worry, this is not about you being good or bad...it's just about helping you get where you want to be, and you'll get out what you put into it - you might even find yourself putting more into it than you thought you would! And liking it! This can help you make permanent changes. You are not too out of shape for this. Trisha will meet you where you are. It's totally worth it.

I've participated in two sessions of Body Back so far and love it! I have become leaner, stronger…read moreand faster. Trisha is a motivating and skilled instructor, both in exercise as well as nutrition. She keeps the work out fun but incredibly challenging. I have never worked so hard and never felt so good. Getting up in the dark to go work out feels like a drag when my alarm first goes off, but by the time I join this wonderful group of women I feel pumped and full of energy. I feel even better once the workout is over, knowing I have worked so hard and accomplished physical and mental feats I never thought possible for me. I feel like Body Back has turned me into the athlete I always wanted to be!

I had a terrible experience at this HOTWORX location. I signed up expecting a motivating workout…read moreenvironment, but it was the complete opposite. First, I was charged over $250 for what was supposed to be a "trial month," which felt extremely misleading. I canceled immediately after realizing how disappointing the experience was. The facility itself felt unsanitary and very poorly maintained. On top of that, the owner came across as extremely judgmental and unprofessional, which made the whole experience even worse. Also, calling this place a "gym" feels misleading. It's basically small sauna boxes where you try to exercise in extreme heat. Instead of feeling like a good workout, it felt uncomfortable and difficult to even breathe while trying to move. It's not motivating at all. The heat is so intense that it even fries your hair if you're not careful. Overall, I would not recommend this place to anyone looking for a real gym or a positive fitness environment.

Member since August 1, 2024…read more Pros: Reasonable price for 24/7 access. Decent variety of classes. Two restrooms with showers available. Cons: The studio and individual pods were frequently unclean, with hair and dust visible. The shower was more often dirty than clean. Most importantly, two critical contract terms were never disclosed at sign-up. First, you cannot cancel before completing five months, yet staff told me cancellation was possible at any time. Second, after one year and nine months of membership, when I submitted a cancellation request with a doctor's recommendation, I was informed that two additional months of payment are required regardless of whether you continue attending. Regarding the workout system itself: the videos offer three difficulty levels and often include form explanations, which is a plus. However, in roughly half the cases the instructor's verbal cues contradict what they are actually doing on screen. For example, instructions about parallel hips, spinal alignment, or proper squat depth are frequently ignored by the demonstrators themselves. Someone following visually without a background in yoga or fitness training would easily pick up incorrect form without realizing it. Poor alignment can ultimately cause more harm than the exercise does good.

His workouts are tailored to your goals and even though it's hard work the hour sessions went by quickly because your never board.

Sunday around 10:00am at Crunch Fitness Beaverton was one of the most unprofessional experiences…read moreI've seen in a gym. A manager handled a simple membership dues issue by yelling across the entire gym floor that my partner "could not work out until a fee was paid." This was done loudly, publicly, and with zero respect. My partner and I are both long-time Crunch members, and no one should be treated like that over a billing question. It was embarrassing to watch and even worse to experience. Situations like that should be handled privately and professionally, not broadcast across a room full of people. What made it more concerning is that employees mentioned this manager has a pattern of yelling at staff as well. If that is true, it is a serious culture problem, not just a one-time mistake. Crunch promotes a welcoming environment, but this was the exact opposite. I will be following up with management directly, but this needs to be addressed immediately. No member or employee should be treated this way.
