A seasoned professional, who not only pushes you to step out of your comfortable zone, he is positive, motivating and listens to you complain [only a lil bit], but pushes you to get past the voice in your head to give up. It's been a long time, since I've done any type of weight training. I use to be in the gym a lot in my 20's/30's, burn out kicked in and I stopped going all together. It was time to make a change. Fast forward to 2021, in just a few short weeks [six to be exact] - I am slowly seeing some results in my body. Super motivating. Thank you for making me feel proud even of my smallest achievements. Your positive attitude has really kept me going. I've enjoyed the training, and am very grateful for your support.

    I normally don't leave reviews, but the experience I had with the Redding Anytime Fitness…read moreowner/manager deserves to be known. She has single-handedly turned what should've been a simple Active&Fit membership into a headache built on lies and control. The gym is still publicly listed on the official Active&Fit network, but she decided to "make her own rules" and deny access anyway, claiming I'd used the location too much -- even though I pay through an approved program. That's not policy; that's power-tripping. It's the kind of shady behavior that makes you question how a franchise like this is being run. She knew exactly how much effort it takes to get a workout in -- the pre-workout, the scheduling, the childcare, the balance between work and life -- and still didn't offer a single complimentary day or ounce of decency. She chose to make things harder, not easier. That's not customer service; that's ego. I actually had to call Anytime Fitness corporate myself, and thankfully they were professional enough to refund me the last three months. Still, that doesn't give me my wasted time back. Now I have to start from scratch, hunt for a new gym, and rebuild the consistency I already had -- all because one owner/manager thought she was above the system. If you value honesty, accountability, and fairness, stay far away from this location. It's run by someone who believes rules don't apply to her, and that's not the kind of environment anyone should have to train in.

The freeweight selection is terrible. Other AF locations are twice the size with far better equipment and variety and still charge less. The owner Kellie is unprofessional and rude.

    I give this 5 star review wholeheartedly for a number of reasons:…read more- the training (evaluation and instruction) - the relationship (coaching conversations) - customer centric (while they MUST charge a fee for their membership, I don't feel like I'm just a number or a paycheck to them... They're sincere in serving me) My story: I have prior injuries: severe soft tissue injuries (strain) to my bicep tendons, cervical spine, and lumbar spine. Also lifelong pain in right hip flexor. Scoliosis. Thoracic spine stiffness and pain. And difficulty supporting my own breathing. Cumulatively, I've worked with 5 different physical therapists for a total of 10 months (broken into 2-4 month intervals) for different injuries between 2016 and 2019. None of those experiences really "put me back together." After all of this, I eventually joined Align via their remote coaching membership option. Started in January 2021 and have continued to now, December 2021. When I started, I told my coach "I feel fragile." And I did. I felt weak, imbalanced, had constant pain and felt insecure doing many normal activities, like lifting something overhead to put on top of the fridge. I had pain with walking. And I was only 36. But after years of sedentary jobs, sedentary schooling, and significant injuries at part time jobs during school, my previously athletic self now felt frail and weak. I was devastated. But I had seen the educational material that Align publishes for free on their social media. And something in me knew... If anyone could help me, it was them. So I started. And it has been hard work. I learned quickly that my coach can encourage me and teach me, but ultimately I'm the one who has to do the work. And within several months of following the program and working with my coach, I found I was making more progress than I ever did with the physical therapists. Who are DOCTORS...! I felt stronger and more stable through my whole body than I had in the last 15 years. 15 years! I was hooked by that point. The intrinsic reward of stable joints, feeling enormously more capable, enjoying the aesthetic changes, and also the new found self respect... And the pain was decreasing. Align has been giving me the tools and support I need to build this aspect of my life. They are respectful, honest, encouraging, and ridiculously intelligent. I've been a client for nearly 12 months and hope to continue training with them for years to come. What I'm saying is, if you feel weak or in pain, you should call them. Be ready to work. And yes, if you're doing it remotely, you may need to buy some equipment but so far the recommended equipment has added up to like $120 for me and that is very doable. Uneducated trainers are frankly dangerous and can lead you to injury (happened to me in 2012 at an gym in Washington state... While she was watching!). Don't be fooled by their "less expensive" so called "services.". If you are already in pain or feel unstable in your joints, then what you need is a really intelligent trainer who will help you get better, not expose you to further risk for injuries. Which is why I recommend Align. Sorry this is so long, but I'm a words person...!!! Take it or leave it, this is my experience. - Michelle M

    Normally when you think of a Planet Fitness, you automatically picture their trademark colors…read morepurple yellow and black, and you kind of imagine the McDonald's of gym's, where it's first in first out hurry up and get your work done show up pretty much whenever avert your eyes and ever talk to anyone. This location though, this one is different. This one sets the standard for what it should be. I really hope that corporate somehow sees this review. When you walk into this gym, they always greet you with a smile, oftentimes ask you how your day is, what your plans are in the gym today, and if you need any help or suggestions. When I first started coming here it was not like that. It was a couple of teenage girls standing at the counter who couldn't give a hoot if you were alive or not. I'm not sure exactly when the change happened because I was in the hospital for a while, but at some point the staff changed up and now we have some real go-getters, people who encourage you, people that actually care. I'd like to shout out three of them that stand above the rest, no shade to the others, but these three have never missed a chance to say good morning or good evening, and ask me what my plans are in the gym today, one of them even takes polls to get people more involved. Nothing serious just little tack marks on a piece of paper, and yet it makes it feel more like a community. Jeff, Peyton, and Dan are not just employees, they're amazing human beings. Always encouraging, always supportive, they don't just work there they're forming community which is what a gym should be. It's hard enough to motivate oneself to get to the gym and keep a routine, but when you know you have friends there who actually care about your progress, people there you're encouraging and make you feel good about what you're doing, that makes it so much easier to stick to that routine. Dan is also a trainer, but he doesn't charge for kindness and encouragement. Jeff though, he's a whole other type of animal, if you need help he's on it, if you look like you're having a rough day he's there for you, he never lets customers do without, he's always professional and kind. And Peyton, hopefully I didn't get the name wrong, is just like Jeff only younger. There is a gym closer to me, but I choose to go to this one because of that personal touch. I've noticed that the negative reviews on here are either outdated or things that people cannot change about the gym. It's unfortunate that it brings the rating down so heavily. If you're in the area and want a decent gym to get a great work out at, massage tables, tanning booths, or just want to get a couple extra steps in while listening to music in an air conditioned environment, this is the place for you!
