Dropped in from out of state while on a family vacation. Clean and organized facility and has all the equipment I needed for my programming (if you are powerlifting or Olympic weightlifting, this place has what you need). Customers/athletes always helpful and mindful of others (no judgment, just folks going about their business). Drop in rate is more than fair (paid way more in San Francisco and only needed the neglected power rack in the back of a globo gym, OMR is a god send). Hoping my next stop has a facility and owner just like this one!

Let me start by saying that I am not a gym rat. Having had experiences at both Marina and Salinas I…read morewill say that mostly the equipment is newish and in working order. The rehab staff at both sites are exemplary, the pools, not so much. The pool in Salinas has been out of commission for close to a year (as of 4/26), so those of us that rely on aqua therapy have been left behind. When dealing with staff there was very little assistance offered, but quite a bit of attitude. Since it's covered by our insurance, unlike other gyms in town, we'll probably just wait until it's repaired, since no one offered us the possibility of just going to Marina.

I wanted to share some honest feedback about my experience at Montage Wellness Salinas because the…read morelevel of customer service has been really disappointing lately. For a facility that likely brings in thousands of dollars in memberships, the professionalism at the front desk, especially during evenings and weekends, is lacking. Multiple times I've walked in to see multiple employees working at once, yet none of them greet members as they come in. Instead, they're sitting at the front desk eating full meals, on their phones, looking miserable or using personal laptops. A front desk at a gym should feel welcoming and attentive, not like employees are hanging out socially. Customer service etiquette seems to be missing during these shifts. When members walk in, there should at least be a simple acknowledgment like "hello" or "have a good workout." Unfortunately, that basic level of service isn't consistently happening. I do want to acknowledge that Randy, Diana, and the woman who usually works mornings are excellent. They are friendly, professional, and actually make members feel welcome when they arrive. Their attitude reflects the type of service you would expect from a wellness facility. However, the evening and weekend staff, particularly the guys and the other woman who work those shifts, seem to need additional training. Working at a gym doesn't just consist of sitting behind the front desk. It involves engaging with members, maintaining a professional environment, and making sure the facility is running smoothly. Another frustrating issue is the water fountains. Both fountains are currently not functioning properly and only work using the push option. There is a sign telling members to use the fountain near the restroom instead, but that one doesn't work either. For a wellness facility, something as basic as functioning water fountains should be a priority. Overall, it's frustrating to see such a nice facility fall short in areas that should be simple to fix: professionalism, basic customer service, and facility maintenance. I've noticed a clear difference in the level of service compared to the location in Marina, which feels much more professional and welcoming. I hope management takes this feedback seriously and considers providing additional training and oversight.

I can't say enough good things about this gym and if I could give them 6 stars I would. I was…read morereally, really out of shape when I started here. It had been about a decade since I worked out daily. Many years ago, I was a devoted Pilates Coach/Ball Fitness Studios fan when I lived in Reno. And since then, I've never found a place I really loved or remained committed to. 2SA welcomed me and challenged me in ways I've never been challenged. I tried boxing and Piyo for the first time, loved both. Amanda's classes were great and she even ran over and held my hand doing lunges so I could get into the correct position. With pretty large class sizes, that really says a lot about the instructor. Most of her students had been with her for years, no other place in Monterey Bay has that kind of cult following this gym and its instructors have. Most people want to work out in a place where everyone looks like their ideal physique, and the people who attend this gym are definitely athletes. If you can get over your own insecurities and put in the work, you will love it here. Lastly, customer service is how it should be. Cancelling is easy. Signing up is easy. The monthly payment is low. There are no gimmicks or upselling or hassles. Just show up when you want to try a class and if you like it, join! Unfortunately with COVID I've been home doing Beachbody. I have a small child and can't make the drive over there for the foreseeable future. If I lived in Salinas, I'd be there in a heartbeat!

At this point, I do feel I have learned enough about weight training to not need a trainer, but I don't think I would push myself as hard if Tom weren't there saying "one more" over and over again.

The place has all the equipment I need (I mostly train with free weights) to work out hard. Tom, the owner is an excellent trainer with lots of knowledge to share. Cons: The location is somewhat hidden, the cost is higher than other gyms, no crowds (if you are into people watching), no showers. I am just a BIG fan of this place. The cost is a little high, but that just means that only people serious about working out go there. I would give this place a 4.5, but since that is not an option I will round up to a 5. In case you are wondering the -.5 would be for the bathrooms not having any shower stalls. Update (11-17-2009)** I stand by what I said before, I really liked working out here, but I was just on the receiving end of a 4 letter word laden tirade from the owner because I turned the tv off. This is something I was given permission to do, but the owner feels that pressing the power button on the tv "broke everything". I follow all the rules, re-racked my weights, wiped down when I was done, etc. I was a model member so it was completely out of the blue for him to call my house to cuss me out. So it's a great place to work out, just be aware you could be on the receiving end of a tongue lashing. It's up to you if you want to stick around after that, I for one am not.

I look and feel awesome and my clothing all fits. I do pinup modeling, so this was a lifesaver. The trainers, particularly Scott, are incredibly encouraging and supportive and you're able to reach them for support on nutrition and recovery. They are also proactive about reaching out to you so that you stay on track. They will make you meeting your goal their personal goal, so you're not going it alone. I started as a six week challenger, and while I did not meet my goal of 6% body fat loss, I chose to stay on to pursue my next fitness goal (not weight related), because I want to preserve my gain in muscle and strength. The cost per month is very reasonable for what is essentially small group training and access to the expertise of really great trainers. The gym is focused on functional strength, HIIT and Tabata style workouts that are a complete whole body workout in a short amount of time. Expect kettle bells, club bells, squats, and lots of body weight based exercises, along with a warmup and cool down, and assistance with a nutrition plan. They are expanding into striking classes and kids' programs as well. I dance ballet and practice yoga and was pleasantly surprised that I did not lose flexibility during my challenge and have better structural support in general for the demands of the disciplines. I'm able to balance better and longer, and lift and hold my legs higher because of this work. They have two locations: one in Monterey and one in Toro Park. No showers, but otherwise well appointed. You're able to reserve classes ahead of time using their push press app. If you're ready for a reset, just sign up for classes. It's a nice community and they'll take care of you and teach you to take care of yourself.

When he cancels a Saturday class its either because work is being done at the gym or another valid situation, not Just because he doesn't want to coach. That's crazy to even think that its just because he doesn't want to coach. Prices have gone up, but so has prices everywhere. If the prices didn't go up we wouldn't have a gym, and that's 100% facts.
