The 6 week Challenge @ The Camp Transformation Costa Mesa!!!

I love...... The Camp Transformation Costa Mesa. I been in the Camp almost 3 years. When I started I did the 21 days Challenge and lost 9 pounds. Less than a year I lost 30 pounds!! Just by continuing the meal plan the Camp transformation recommended!! February 2, 2026, I did the 6 week Challenge and lost 14.8 pounds and 4.6 body fat!! I love the trainers and I love..... the workouts!!! Anyone reading this message I recommend you joined if you want to be fit and want to loose weight but most important want to be healthy!!! The nutrition plan really works!!!‍

Coach of the month goes to Ricky Basurto!!! Never skip leg day... His dedication and love for what he does is proven every Friday night. The upbeat atmosphere makes it seems like a Friday night party while working out! Thank you Ricky! And a big shout out to front desk staff, Joselyn! Always keeping us on our toes and giving us an extra push of motivation!

It took me a while to get to this weight but everything is possible

Over a year ago, I started training at The Camp Transformation Center in Costa Mesa, trying out various Elite programs from different coaches, but I found my groove with Coach Carlos Ancona and his Muscle Up Elite program. The daily classes are challenging, but the trainers provide excellent modifications to ensure the exercises work for all fitness levels. Coach Carlos's "form over weight" mantra has significantly helped me improve and lift heavier, I'm truly grateful for the encouragement from the whole team at The Camp Transformation Center in Costa Mesa, all the coaches are great and we learn different techniques from each one . This gym is fantastic! If you're beginning your fitness journey, I highly recommend Coach Carlos Ancona to teach you proper form before you start lifting heavier weights.

My experience at The Camp Costa Mesa has been life changing. Not only am I in better shape, but they have added a layer of discipline that I have needed for many years. Every staff member at The Camp is friendly and helpful. Each coach brings their own unique workout style and movements. I feel that this diversity assists your body to reaching your goals. The family environment that the team of coaches make at The Camp is probably the best thing about the facility. Everyone is welcome, without judgement, and are encouraged to participate. The monthly hikes that this community takes were my favorite part of the experience. It is great to take the workout to the outdoors and enjoy Mother Nature while getting in shape! I appreciate everything! Thank you

Freddie made it all happen!

I was visiting Costa Mesa for a week. I was able to continue my Camp Workouts while being on the road. I met Freddy the owner and Coach Carlos. They opened their gym to me and treated me like family and seemed like I knew them forever! I'm grateful for their hospitality and fitness support. The Camp Costa Mesa is a place where you can follow your fitness goals. Along with other great athletes participating at each class. The music is motivating. Coaches Carlos and Luis push to get the results you want! Thank you Freddie for the great experience. Good Luck and success on your fabulous gym!

Friday nights are my favorite with Coach Ricky! Always fun and "easy" lol Never skip leg day

Thank you, Coach Luis.

Coach Luis is awesome! Always a good workout!!! If your looking for a great place to workout give The Camp Transformation Costa Meas a try.

Thanks, Coach Carlos!!!

Great workout at the camp today. Vote Carlos, but all the coaches are great. Solid work work out trying to get the minimum required words. Sorry, this part sucks about Yelp.

Leg day with Coach Carlos

Great place to work out - very helpful staff. Combination of cardio and strength training. Coach Carlos is awesome, knowledgeable and pushes you to excel. Highly recommended

Michela B.

Update: 7/23/26…read more After a year at this gym. I've spoken to some of the team member - especially a person name Javier. I inform him my concerns, thoughts and recommendation. This gentlemen listen to me closely and heard what I said. The gym updated paper towels and chemicals to wipes. I see staff and cleaning crew helping out by keeping the gym clean. Sweat is being wiped down from the machine. Javier has updated me that they are looking to post signs as a respectful reminder for folks. I want to upgrade my 3 star to 5.

However, this gym is very busy and with people who have questionable gym etiquette. You'll often see guys working out with their shirts off, saving 2 machines at once with their gym bag on one, and on their phone on the other, while flexing into their selfie sticks. It wouldn't be a big deal if this gym wasn't constantly busy, but it is. It doesn't matter what time of day you come, it's always full. Today, there was a hot pink Lamborghini parked in the handicap spot directly in front of the door. Really? I said something to the front desk, not to be a "Karen," but because there are indeed real disabled members that work out here. Oh... and it's uhhhh... illegal and just plain disrespectful. He shrugged his shoulders, and totally blew me off. Curl management could really improve on setting some etiquette rules for the members it's getting really out of hand.

The Holy Spirit led me to leave this review today after being a member since December 2025…read more I praise God for how He is using Mark and Kat to help people become more physically healthy while also introducing them to what matters most--Jesus Christ. Their commitment to honoring the Lord through their business is evident. The facility is always well-stocked, the equipment is organized (unlike many public gyms), and everything is consistently clean and well maintained. It's a welcoming environment where excellence and care are clearly a priority. I truly believe the Lord will continue to bless Mark and Kat, both in their business and in their family, because of their faithfulness and obedience to Him. The Scripture that comes to mind is Psalm 37:5: "Commit everything you do to the Lord. Trust Him, and He will help you." May the Lord Jesus Christ continue to increase your influence, bless your work, and grant you favor as you faithfully walk in obedience to Him.

Every penny is invested in your health , what you pay is what you get, and let me tell you that I've never been this happy with a gym. I also love that they are not afraid to spread the gospel and put Jesus first, always.

He truly cares about your well-being and motivates you to do better each day.

I wanted to find a trainer who really cared about me and my personal goals, and really puts effort into each session, and Elena has been so attentive and more. The workouts she gives me are the just right challenge, and she always checks up on me after each repetition to see how I feel and if we need to adjust anything which I truly appreciate. It's not just about helping me train, she has taugh me so many new workouts, my body physically has become stronger and and at peak shape, and she even helps manage my weight goals by tracking what I have been eating to improve my daily habits. I highly recommend to work with Elena!!! If you are looking for someone who genuinely cares about you and puts serious attention into your sessions to make a difference in your overall health and fitness, definitely give a session with her a try!!

If you're a new mom (or anyone!) looking for a trainer who is knowledgeable, motivating, and genuinely cares about your journey, I can't recommend Elena enough.

I've been coming here since February, and joining this gym has honestly been one of the best…read moredecisions I've made this year. At first, I was really intimidated. I had only ever gone to places like 24 Hour Fitness, so walking into a more serious training gym was completely out of my comfort zone. But from day one, everyone made me feel so welcome. The front desk staff is always friendly, and they even have a little coffee bar in the mornings, which is such a nice touch. I've been training with AJ, and I can't recommend him enough. Coming from someone who knew almost nothing about gym equipment or strength training (I was mainly a Pilates girl), he made everything easy to understand and made me feel comfortable asking questions. He's patient, encouraging, and genuinely cares about helping you improve. Since starting here, my body has changed so much, but honestly, so has my mindset. I've gained confidence, learned proper form, and actually look forward to coming to the gym. No matter what fitness level you're at, I've never felt judged or out of place. There are people at every stage of their fitness journey, and it's a really supportive environment. I've also attended one of their women's events, which was such a fun way to meet people and be part of the community. It really feels like more than just a gym. If you've been nervous about joining a gym like I was, this is your sign. I'm so glad I took the chance.

I love this place! Starting off with the gym itself; top notch equipment (a lot that you won't find…read morein other gyms), clean and the layout is organized intentionally to give each member enough space. Appreciate that the coaches don't overpack the space so you never have to worry about waiting for a machine/area. There's a fridge with preworkout/electrolytes and fountain so there's always cold water during workouts. For coaches, Adam and Zach are very professional and knowledgeable in their field. I've been working out for over 15+ years (basic knowledge) but finally able to learn how to properly lift without anymore shoulder pain. I am also learning techniques that don't aggravate my body while able to lift more. Adam is my personal trainer and words don't do him justice. He's fully invested in my health and growth in both strength training and as a person. He will push me to my limits but also adjust exercises on the spot when needed. He educates me on the function and technique for each exercise. In the short amount of time I've been at exhilarate I can honestly say it was a catalyst to me taking my health more seriously and finally getting the results I've been looking for. I lost hope in finding/paying for personal training because I didn't think it was worth it from previous experiences but I finally found my the perfect spot.

I started training with Adam about a year ago to add some weight training to supplement swimming (I…read moreswim masters 3-5x a week). I've seen such a difference--not just in strength, but in how I feel in the water and my overall fitness. Adam takes the time to understand your goals and writes programs that are challenging. He's always pushing you to give your best while balancing it with meeting you where you're at so we always do a checkin at the beginning of each session to gauge my energy levels and any injuries. It's super convenient to have a private gym and not have to wait for equipment to be available. I also love not having to come up with workouts on my own. I would def recommend for all levels.

The place is spacious compared to other workout studios I've been to in the area. The format is mainly 5 stations with an A & B exercise. You can start at any of the 5 stations & you'll do sets of the A workout followed by the B workout or vice versa. Monday/Wednesday is upper body Tuesday is lower body Thursday is glutes and abs Friday through the weekend is full body (this location isn't open Sunday so you'll have to hit up their other location) We've been going to the evening classes which are taught by Meghan.
