So when I went to check out the camp which I found by a add on Instagram, I was pulled in by it saying free 6 week challenge, thinking they were just Abington free classes or something to get you to join the gym , which I was looking to do. It turns out it's far from free and far from what I expected or anticipated. The last 6 weeks of doing the hard body challenge have been, well nothing like I expected. When I went to the first meeting seeing all the things we had to do, like checking in for every visit, leaving reviews, and oh my goodness, the meal plan they give out. I was so discouraged and overwhelmed but I though what the heck I'll do my best and at least I'll be eating better and being active. Long story short, I couldn't believe the results I got in only the first 3 weeks! I had already met the 5% body fat loss goal!! The book and their motto is FTDI, and honestly if you do, I don't know how you wouldn't be able to meet your goal and more. This challenge is not for the weak I will tell you that. Meal prepping was very important. Every night i made my meals for the next day, got up at 6 am and went to do my "homework" weight lifting before my 7 am work out class. The class are tough, but they are fun and can be modified for every and any level your at. If your not leaving their a sweaty mess, then did you even go? Lol I took their AM pill in the morning before class to help with energy and burn fat, then have my breakfast after class, two hours later my protein shake which I make with my Ice coffee , then two hours later I have my lunch followed by two hours later protein shake, and again two hours later dinner, then 2 PM pills before bed to help with sleep and burn fat. And of course lots of water in between mixed with my BCAA watermelon flavor. I will tell you, if you do not have friends and family who support and help you threw this, it will be very hard to eat healthy and constantly the whole time. But don't give up, everyday is a new day to try and do better and be stronger. I 100% recommend doing the 6 week challenge, and I look forward to continuing working out at the camp. read more

Terrible customer service, I have been trying to place my account on hold with no response from this staff for over a week. They claim that you can put your account on hold, but that seems to be impossible. They only respond when you ask to cancel, but then they want to charge a cancellation fee. read more

I began attending this gym a few months ago and I've grown to love it more and more. All the staff is so nice and welcoming. Trainers are tough but their commitment to their clients is very apparent. All the attendees I've met have been friendly and helpful. I feel like I found my forever gym! Shout out to Andrew, Fonzie, Frank, Nate, Sam, Cielo, Justin and Sofia!!! Gigi I miss seeing you!!! Thank you for all that you do everyday every session!!!! read more

Signed up for a year, completed my year and canceled. This place is filthy! In that year the carpet remained the same, smelly and stained. Yuk! I used to wear hoodies to my work outs because I did not want my hair or any part of my body coming in contact with it. The trainers looked like they were fresh out of high school with a body builder ego lol. Only one of the 6 trainers was great! That kid knew his workouts and took the time to explain form. I believe his name is Armando. The rest sucked. Sorry. Also, I went there to work out! Meaning, I wore my hair up, no make up, and work out clothes specially at 5 am... well, I received ugly stares from other ladies. Hahah, maybe because they thought I was from south Downey or something! Lol. My money can definitely go somewhere else. Will not be returning. read more

Too loud as in you need ear plugs not to damage your hearing. Inattentive instructors. Based off of just a couple visits so you may have a better experience than I. Decent space tho. read more

I've been coming to the camp for 6months, I've pretty much trained with all trainers and met all of the greeters/receptionist employees. They are all great but there's just one girl in particular that isn't very nice I believe her name is Chanel(blonde girl). I come in a positive, ready to work out but she just kills my whole vibe as soon as I see her in the front. I don't know if she's having a bad day, or she just deals with a severe case of rbf (but she's not very friendly). Whatever the case might be, girl you need to smile, your job is customer service and let me tell you ain't cutting it. read more

Pros: 1- awesome times. I mean they have a 4am class. That's pretty crazy. Apart from sleep or if you work nights you really don't have an excuse to not make it. 2- close to home. I can walk here. 3- friendly staff 4- clean Cons: 1- crowded - oh so crowded. Like 40 people in a class with only one coach. There are a lot of lost looking people without guidance because it's hard for 1 person to give attention to all 40+ people in a room. 2-parking - sucks. Probably because there's 40 people all trying to park at the same time. The coaches are not bad. There's just too many people. I like Daniel's style of coaching. Some of the other coaches talk too much about unnecessary stuff - or maybe to some it's motivation? I don't know. I'm an in and out person and don't want fluff. I've been through a lot of bootcamps and crossfits etc. $150 a month is average I believe. But for $150 a month I expect smaller classes where we all get a little more guidance. Maybe they could add more class times - like a 9pm and 7am to spread out more people or have two coaches in a class. I really wanted to love this place because it's so close to home.... I really just wish it wasn't so crowded. read more

I've heard a lot of people were doing this challenge but never had the courage to do it. But you get to a point in life where your health has to be your number one priority, it might seem difficult to understand to some people how can your health not be your priority but I think there is more people than we know that this is a common subject. Not being healthy and postponing my needs has been a huge problem. Thanks to this amazing people willing to share their knowledge and helping us transform our lives is amazing. I am your super fan and I wish that one day I can be part of someone else's transformation and motivation. I will push thru this. Stay fit, don't quit is now my number one mojo. read more

Places like this just try to sell you unhealthy supplements and play it off like they are helping. But they're really not. When you get stuck at a certain point, the first they are going to tell you is to hop on fat burners instead of doing their job. Weird energy coming out of this place, you can really feel the fake enthusiasm coming from employees. The employees also were making me feel very uncomfortable and they tend to just have conversations to people they only know. This place is a legal scam and really doesn't care about you unless you spend money. Don't believe me notice the reviews are the same and they pick and choose who they want to respond to. DONT FALL FOR THEIR TRICKS. Just a waste of time. The bad reviews are the real reviews. read more

I was really led down, disappointed and made a fool by this gym. You see I joined their 20lb challenge which was $497. I was told if I lost 20lbs I would get my money back so I took the journey. This was a big commitment because I have two little ones, including a 9month old and a full time job. I woke up Monday thru Friday at 4:30 am to make it five days a week to their 5am class. I followed their meal plan even if it meant cooking two meals. I committed and guess what I did it!! In 6wks I lost 20.2 lbs!!! I was so excited when I saw my final weight. Then it all came crushing down when they said oh but you didn't meet your target weight. At the bottom corner of a very long contract their is a chart that tells you how much you should weight based on height. For me it meant I had to loose 22.9 lbs to reach their target weight of 155 for a person who is 5.5. Btw they had my height wrong but that's what my ID said. I'm more 5.6. So a really obese person would not be able to healthily loose this much weight. They tricked me because they explained the target weight as that's the weight you have to reach if it's not healthy to loose 20lbs. I really thought they cared how much a person could loose in a healthy way in 6weeks. During those 6wk I thought 20 lbs or reach that weight. Not the other way around. Btw I know I could have lost 22.9 if I would have known but that was not explained to me correctly. Oh and also I was told if I didn't reach the "20lbs" I would get $10 per pound lost also a lie. I would get credit not money back. So I paid $497 to workout for 6wks when their membership is under 200 per month plus $350 on their supplements. Lol they really got me. They don't care about your health they just care about your money. So be warned! read more

I wouldn't recommend this place to anybody....i tried there 21 day challenge....it ended up costing me over 400 dollars for 3 weeks....then it got worst when i tried to cancel my membership they hit me with all kinds of fees and charged me for an extra month cuz its "in the contract "...the only thing the transform is your wallet read more

It's been a long time since I've focused on my fitness. During the Stay at Home order I've especially made unhealthy choices so I needed a kick start and based on past experience at the Pico Rivera camp almost 5 years ago, I knew The Camp TC would help. Staff is always so helpful and welcoming especially Elijah, Khan and Fidel at the Downey TC center. read more

Another successful day with the AFF. Lower body day is always the hardest for me. The trainers always make it fun and enjoyable to keep pushing on. With Covid going on the classes are only 35-40 minutes long, which is perfect because it's right before I'm about to pass out lol. read more

6 weeks ago today, I decided to join The Transformation Camp, after my sis-in-law, Myrna, completed 2+ challenges and was persistent in suggesting I check it out. I attended my first workout as a guest (with the Camp's 3-day pass)... and even before the first 10 minutes were up on my first workout, I had all sorts of emotions/complications (nausea, dizziness, shortness of breath, etc.) I made it through and returned the next few days. After attending orientation and seeing all the inspiring stories and motivated journeys, AND WHILE TAKING ADVANTAGE OF THEIR LIMITED TIME DISCOUNTED PRICE, I did decided to sign up. This challenge was not easy, but it was definitely worth it and I'm glad I didn't do it alone. Shout out to my sis-in-law, Maricruz, who went through it with me. As of today, we are both officially 20lbs lighter !!! A special thanks to my Hubbs for endorsing this project for me AND for helping me get through it - even though sometimes he made it harder than easier but he was always keeping me on check. Also, as a mother of 2, you will always experience the struggle of finding a sitter while you do them EXCERSICES... and for that, I thank my momma, my sis, my dad, cousins, Tia, mother and father-in-law for watching my kids -- YES! total group effort. #EatingHabitsWillMakeOrBreakYou #AFF #FTDImeals #TCDowney #StayFitDontQuit Thank you at The Camp Downey! I'm taking a small break from you... but HARD BODY CHALLENGE, I'm coming for you before the year is up!! ‍ read more

So I'm scrolling through Facebook and I come across one of the ads on there for the camp and how they're looking for people to join a challenge and to see if they wanna lose weight. So I've been seeing their ads for a little while so I say to myself "OK, why not?". What if I got to lose? To be honest I'm happy with my body, although I was weighing 278 at the time. And to be honest again, I needed to get more active. I got to tell you the first week of doing the program, I was dog tired and it was tough because I haven't been that active in a long time. My body was hurting, I was so ridiculously sore all over. Icy/Hot and BenGay were my best friends. As the weeks went on I obviously noticed the pounds shed right off. The meal plan was the BIGGEST obstacle I had since I really do like to have a GOOD meal. Meal prep was easy and fun but every time I opened my lunch and dinner I couldn't help but feel sadness. Anyway, the staff are very friendly and motivating. Every time you walk in they pump you up before the work out. Just what I need to get started. I've lost 23lbs for the challenge and yes, I feel great. I'm now a member and plan to lose some more pounds. Thanks to you guys for giving me the kick start. read more

The camp was recommended by my sister who lost 40 pounds after 2 challenges. I hate working out with people, maybe because I was self conscious? Anyhow I've been going for about 2 months now, I see results! And the best part is the trainers make it fun, and understand we're all different sizes read more

This place is a total rip off!! I signed a contract for 6 months. After my contract got expired, they kept automatically withdrawing money from my bank account. I called and they said that you must sign a cancellation policy because after the 6 month contract the membership automatically goes month to month. People beware because they will threaten to send you to collection even though they don't specify the terms when you sign the Contract. read more

Getting healthy is number 1 GOAL. I prefer this over gym best staff and trainers in town!

6 weeks ago I've decided to embark in the experience of a lifetime. I was going to the gym but didn't see the results I wanted, so I murdered my wallet and committed $497 to this rigorous 6 week 20lbs challenge. The Camp Transformation Downey has amazing trainers like Christian with his crazy-a$$ BEAST MODE workouts, Juden with EDM Music that made me feel like I was at EDC early in the mornings, and Elijah for pushing me to my limits and always get higher weights ‍! With their motivational starting & ending quotes and eating healthy, this little fat dude was able to lose 23lbs and beat the challenge. Sitting down drinking Herbalife will not do the trick; you've got to be active! So what are you waiting for? Take your goals to the next level and join the Awesome Fit Family! #StayFitDontQuit #NeverMissAMonday #BeastMode #AAF #FTDI #NextStation #Rotate #CarbCycle #Tilapia #TilapagusWeek #BCAA #Glutamine #PackTheCamp #CantStopWontStop read more

I came to try a group class and wasn't impressed with the instructor. There was hardly any demonstration of correct form, then when we went from station to station to do the weighted workouts the instructor wasn't watching us at all so us beginners that didn't know how to do an exercise optimally had to wing it, risking improper form which could lead to injury. There weren't different weight options everyone got the same weight, I couldn't do a full bicep curl because the weight was too heavy, but there were no other weight options. What does someone do if the weight provided is too light or heavy? The music was too loud, but I think it was that way on purpose so that we can't ask questions, making the instructor work harder than he wants to. I'm still so sore I can't get into my car without extreme soreness/pain in my legs and I think this is because I just started working out again with weight that was too heavy (my only option) instead of easing back into it. read more

1/40 - Today was my first day of my 16 week challenge and all I can say is WOW it kicked my butt . But I'm motivated to keep going and get summer ready read more

I am glad I did the 20lb challenge as it jump started my new lifestyle and "even if" attitude. It's nice to be around like minded people that are there with you in the same boat for motivation and encouragement. However I was confused on how the program worked in the beginning and seemed to find out from other campers rather than the actual trainers/coordinators- like my first day/week I was completely lost on the exercises and what I was supposed to be doing- even with the orientation it's not fully explained or lined up for you as a new member. (Yes one can ask questions but it's shouldn't be difficult to understand) I didn't know when to start taking my detox or certain items they recommend- (For new campers I think special attention is needed and direction to help them comprehend and feel welcomed) Pros- Love the 4am class offering for busy full time working moms Eventually you develop camper family atmosphere. The classes are HIIT and it's a great workout most of the time. Cons- Program lacks specific individual direction and welcoming training to new campers. Classes are too CROWDED at certain times and I feel another trainer should be present if 25 people or more in class to fully watch all campers and make sure they understand the exercise and perform it properly to not get injured. All in all- it's a good spot to get a good workout read more

I completed the 6 week 20 pound weight loss challenge and I am so happy with my experience. Everyone at the camp including the staff, trainers, and the campers were all very supportive and enhanced my time coming here by a long shot. I will continue attending the camp as an official member in order to maintain my results, which by the way were dropping 20.8 pounds and going down 2 pant sizes. All my clothes fit me better now and some of my old clothes actually fit me too loose. The camp kick started my fitness journey and I hope that other people might be inspired after seeing my transformation and it will propel them into taking that first step toward their journey. 5 stars. read more

I joined the 20 pound 6-week challenge thinking I would only lose the weight. Not only did I beat the challenge, I also started to build muscle. Mostly everything about the gym is awesome: the trainers, the staff, the meal plan and the hours. The one drawback is that some classes get way to full that the quality of the workout gets compromised. It's great to pack the camp with the promos, but not to the extent that you can't get a good workout. Perhaps a bigger facility? My overall experience has been a positive one and I would recommend The Camp to anyone wanting to be fit or wanting to lose weight. The 22 pounds I lost helped me reached my goal. I no longer have to take meds for obesity related ailments. I will definitely be doing another challenge or getting a membership at The Camp. Thanks Downey Camp and staff! read more

The Camp Transformation Center is the first place I can actually say I've enjoyed working out at...the trainers the staff and the dedicated individuals who come in, day in and day out, to work hard to accomplish their goals is what inspires me and motivates me everyday to come in. It's not your typical gym and that's what I love about it. The trainers are really there for you every step of the way. Since joining as a 6 week Challenger, I've become some whato addicted to this new lifestyle, and now as an official member I look forward to attending my classes and kicking butt each time. If you join you won't regret it...the results will make you come back, TRUST ME! read more

Beware!!! This location makes use of a broken InBody Measurement Scan Machine. You should always have your scan performed at a non-affiliated location because the weight and body fat percentage provided by their equipment is usually higher than it is. You should not entrust your weight and body fat measurements to this location. They will defraud you of your money and your hard work. I've attached photos of three consecutive scans they performed for me on 9/5/2022, each with a different outcome. Isabel Murillo and Destiny Avena stated that they would have it fixed by a certified technician on Labor Day, 10 minutes before the store closed. Destiny Avena, the director, was present and reacted very rudely and defensively when I requested that the scan be repeated, stating that regardless of the results, the first measurement would be the official. At that point, I realized something was wrong because if the machine had been properly calibrated, their condescending director (Destiny Avena) wouldn't be so concerned about getting different results from a consecutive body scan. I went back the next morning, 9/6, after their machine was allegedly calibrated by a technician on Labor Day, and the results were once again inaccurate at 13.4% body fat. I immediately drove to Golds Gym La Mirada and had the test performed by a certified InBody technician and accredited trainer, and I received two consecutive results of 11.6% body fat, proving that I completed the challenge by losing not 5, but 6.5% body fat. All of the trainers and challengers who worked with me are witnesses to how hard I worked only to be cheated by an inexperienced director using a tampered, faulty machine. Everyone who was scanned at this location during the most recent 6-week challenge, please confirm your results at a gym or certified location because The Camp Transformation Center Downey is deceiving you. I filed a report with the BBB and CONSUMER AFFAIRS, both of which are open to the public. If you discover you have been cheated on, I recommend you do the same. I'm uploading photos of all the outcomes as evidence of their wrongdoing. After I adressed the issue, they contacted me and offered me over $400 in membership credits, which I declined on principle because I know they have not resolved the issue and are unwilling to admit they are conducting fraudulent body scans. Please avoid this deceptive location and all others associated with it. read more

I started the camp with my wife because she has some health issues and I wanted to support her on her health journey. I never thought that this would also help me and change my life for the better. I lost 27 lbs in 6 weeks and I can't believe how good I feel. Following the camp instructions, diet plan and exercises was fairly easy. We are a busy family with two kids and I. running around all the time, I have never found the time to take care of my self or exercise, but with the flexible and multiple classes that the offer it was possible to make it at 4am and still go through my regular busy schedule every day. Overall I highly recommend The camp transformation center in Downey to everyone that is ready to make a change in their lives. Also the staff is very supportive and friendly, the trainers are professional and patient, I really enjoyed the workouts. read more

In 6 weeks I gained so much more than I lost. NOW, I eat brown rice, quinoa, broccoli, asparagus, homemade sugar & fat free salad dressing, and raw spinach cut up on EVERYTHING. NOW, the pushup...almost looks professional, I can complete 40 jumping jacks without stopping, and the wall squat is on point...with weights. Yassss NOW, the biceps flexes on me unexpectedly, and the glutes have me looking back at it. NOW, I am reminded of the greatness of who I am at my core (man, those everyday stresses can wear you thin). Sometimes I need to challenge myself so that to be reminded of the strength that comes from within, a reason to pat myself on the back, or moments to grow that I can control (not those life lessons lol) That's usually looks like me going back to school. This time, I tried something different. But was it? Both take the same effort. Both build endurance. Both build strength. Both build character. Both take tenacity. Both take time. Both take perseverance. What vibrations are you putting out into the universe? If YOU don't take care of YOU, who will? Transformation from the inside out! Oh! and 22.8 pounds lighter! On to the next challenge! #stayfitdontquit #mindbodysoul Thank you to everyone at the camp: Trainers and Campers! Everyone was so supportive! read more
