Just when I was about to give up on ever truly being fit again, and giving into the "it is what it…read moreis" syndrome of getting older, the forces of the universe brought me to Carla's new studio. I hadn't seen her in a few years and the first thing I told her was that I didn't want to do pop squats. And she said I didn't have to. Over a year later, I do pop squats and every other crazy, fun, challenging workout that she prepares. I am stronger and fitter than I've ever been and even better, I finally know what it means to fuel my body with healthy foods, so that every workout builds on the previous one. And not only that, the friendships and the camaraderie due to the environment that Carla has created in the studio is second to none! I have fun with every single one of these ladies inside and outside of the studio and they truly inspire me! Highly recommend!

She's knowledgeable, well-trained, inspiring, empathetic and warm-hearted. She'll be your best friend and kick your butt at the same time!

Carla has a wealth of knowledge, experience, is passionate and excited to help you reach your goals, and to have a blast doing it! It has a strong feeling of community and support. Great place! Best trainer!

I have been going to Eli for the last 6 months. I have never been to a trainer before, and I was…read morenervous that I wouldn't be able to keep up. I view myself as uncoordinated, and I didn't know if this was the best route for me. I gained 25 pounds in the last 6 years and lost my self-confidence. I wanted to get myself back, but I didn't know how to do it. Going to Eli was the best thing I could have done. Eli's personality, motivational training style, and extensive nutrition knowledge allowed me to reach my goals. I train with Eli 3 times a week. I lost 25 pounds in the first 4 months and reached my goal weight of 122 pounds. Eli put me at ease at my first appointment and continues to put me at ease. He challenges me, but with a very watchful eye during my entire workout. Eli makes sure my form is correct so I target the correct muscles and prevent injury. Every workout is different. I don't know how he keeps so many exercises in his head. I am never bored and the hour flies by. My life is busy. I have a full time job and a family of 7. Sometimes I have to change my workout times in order to incorporate my 3 weekly workouts. Eli always works with me so I may maintain my workout schedule. I will continue my 3 weekly workouts. I feel so much more energy, and I have my self confidence back. I am definitely healthier, and shopping for clothes has become enjoyable. Eli is always ready to answer my many questions. As goals are attained, I set new goals. Eli incorporates my new goals into an updated plan. He recently emailed me a food guide for my current goal of further lowering body fat. Eli is not only a great trainer, he is a good person. He is very passionate about what he does. Eli walks the walk and is an inspiration. I highly recommend Eli as a positive motivation and wealth of knowledge in your quest of improved health and the ability to have control over your own body!

Total Health and Exercise in Centennial, where we work out, is a private gym of the highest quality: clean, large space with a great sound system, equipment in excellent condition, locker rooms with showers, really good lighting, towels, mirrored walls, special flooring, etc. The gym has an energizing atmosphere because of the positive attitude of the trainers and clients. At times it feels like an extended family.

They have merch available, along with some lockers and cubbies for your belongings. Prior to the start of the workout, the trainers walk you through all the exercises you will be performing. They have different circuits and today happened to be the more challenging one. This workout included everything from kettle bells to lunges and lots of other challenging moves. The coaches here are wonderful and motivating and kept such a positive attitude with everyone working out. The music during the workout keeps you motivated and ready to keep going. Overall, this was an awesome experience! I definitely recommend checking them out and seeing if this is something you might like!

The studio is conveniently close but after my experience at this one, I won't be coming back. The front staff were kinda rude and when I explained this was my first time to this studio and first workout in a while, they were dismissive and not helpful in letting me know where anything was. I probably was nervous because this was my first big girl workout after having a baby, but when I didn't know where the lockers were, one of the members told me where and I heard the two ladies at the desk giggle and say "She's so lost." Wasn't a very welcoming experience. The instructor was fine, but a lady was there for her first class and fell off the treadmill. The instructor seemed to reprimand her more than ask how she was doing. Overall, I might give OTF another try because I like their workout formats, but never again here.

This is a workout that will kick your metabolism up a notch. Is it hard? Yes. Unless you slack off during class. But why would you do that? You paid to be there. You want to be svelte. You want to get the most out of your body and your dollars, right? So use the heart rate monitor that you wear during class and get the most out of every minute. You will burn calories during class, and you'll burn more calories after class and into the next day. And you'll be strong and healthy and looking good. Best of all, you manage the workout. The trainer will not yell at you and push you to go harder than you should -- you're in charge. You see your heart rate, you listen to your body, you make it work. And every person at Orangetheory, from the front desk people to the trainers, are supportive and friendly. Makes it easy to go back.

He doesn't just force all of his clients to do the same thing, he tailors a workout regimen to the client's needs. He will give you as much information as you want about the approach he is taking, why you're doing what you're doing, and even give you as many pointers about personal health habits that need improving in or out of training. He's pretty flexible when it comes to what days/times you want to come in and will keep up with your schedule to make it work. He's also pretty down to earth and fun to talk to while you're training, all the while making you work. It's easier to work out if you're distracted from the pain, I think, so it's a good characteristic for a trainer. It's definitely worth it.

I have been working with Brandon for a couple of months and love our workouts. I used to go to…read moreboot camps and work out on my own at a big-box gym doing circuits and cardio. But, I wasn't making progress. Then I met Brandon. He is incredible. He uses old school weight training which is so much better then circuits. Aside from circuits, I had never lifted weights before. We started with weights low enough where I felt comfortable and then quickly started increasing weight. He knows how hard to push you so you improve, but do not get hurt. Brandon brings an abundance of training and experience to the table. He is extremely knowledgeable in all areas of the muscles groups and focuses on working all of them out. He has a way of explaining the movements so you can visualize how the exercise is working out the muscles. He is also very patient. He doesn't mind repeating the same thing over and over until I get it. If you want serious no-nonsense weight training with a true professional, Brandon is your man!
