What I love about his work is that he takes the time to assess the client overall to determine which muscles are of primary importance to stretch and which muscles are of primary importance to strengthen. That is the first thing you want in a trainer is good detective work. He is patient and easy going with a strategic plan in mind to improve the client's performance and function for daily life routines while building a nice physique in the process! His studio is in the heart of English Village, extremely convenient. I love that there are no studio prices currently, so his price is very affordable. I highly recommend Marlon and his services.

No pressure to "become a member" This gym is everything they claim it to be, no judgement! I couldn't get over the square footage of the place, and there is no waiting for a machine. The staff are continually sanitizing machines, bathrooms are very clean, all weights are orderly. They have many sanitizing stations as well. If I lived here I would join this gym in a second.

I came to visit Alabama for this weekend and needed to work out so instead of paying $20 or whatever it was for a 1-day pass...yea. This spot is HUGE and so clean and EMPTY. I loved it. The machines were well kept and clean and the staff were friendly. I got a chance to use the tanning bed with my membership tier and honestly, I love this gym membership more than my LA Fitness one for sure!! Lots of perks! Plus...multiple locations all over the country! I love that this Alabama location is my home gym even though I live in Los Angeles. Hahah!

Was a good place to workout before they "updated" the equipment. They greatly reduced the amount of…read moremachines to make room for free weights. The 30 minute circuit was removed from its area and now supplements the machines they removed so the gym doesn't look sparse. This means it is almost impossible to complete a 30 minute circuit in time (and keep your heart rate up) because you will have to wait for the people who camp out on the machines to rest between their 3 sets on one machine. The majority of people there camp out on machines texting or scrolling on phones while they rest. It takes awhile to complete muscle groups on machines because of this. Until this location brings back the dedicated 30 minute circuit and adds machines back, I will not return. Joining another gym next month. Sad about management's change to attract free weight body builders by losing members who prefer machines and a quick workout. I really liked it before the change and referred a lot of people there.

If you're looking for a gym with a personal trainer with nutritional and evidence based fitness…read moreknowledge, Fit 280 is your best choice. Del, the personal trainer, will listen to what your fitness goals and create a realistic plan to help you achieve what you want. For me, I wanted to know the benefits about intermittent fasting, an appropriate meal plan, and an exercise routine to help me lose my abdominal fat. Del took the time and effort to write up on a marker board what exercises to do, what food to eat, and completely answer my knowledge gaps. In just 6 weeks, I was able to drop my body fat percentage by 5%. It wasn't easy, but I couldn't have done it without Del's help. Aside from personal training, there are 1 hour early morning + late afternoon classes Monday to Friday (and Saturday mornings) in which you will do extensive circuit workout routines. These are extremely helpful because these routines are both challenging and motivational. Del oversees each person and develops a plan whether it's weight loss or weight gain. The gym has squat racks, bench press bars, ropes, cycles, and much more. It is extremely well ventilated, several clean bathrooms, and cubicles to store your belongings. Water is available in a small refrigerator. The atmosphere is relaxed. Every gym member is chill and super supportive. I would highly recommend this gym and Del to anyone looking for fitness classes or personal training in Birmingham!

We design and implement personalized training plans for every aspect of weight loss. In short, we offer personal training that doesn't end when you walk out the door. Each client is in constant contact with their trainer whenever they need help, is given a program to follow even on the days that they aren't working with their trainer, and is given constant workout and nutritional updates throughout their weight loss journey. Here, at Fit 280, we pride ourselves on giving realistic and easy to follow nutrition guides. We do not crash diet our clients and we do not deprive clients of their favorite foods if we can help it. Another great thing about Fit 280 is every member that walks through the door is a training client. There are no general gym members to crowd the facility.
