I really hated to workout. When I found out my blood pressure was elevated and my cholesterol was out of whack, I immediately decided to start taking better care of myself. I guess I can say I've never committed to sticking with a workout program and/or diet. I turned to Scott at BodyFlex LBC. He suggested a workout regime for me and introduced better choices as far as nutrition. Scott is an amazing trainer. He's professional, approachable, motivating, kind and really stresses the importance of working out safely without injury. Since I have been working out, my blood pressure and cholesterol are now within normal range! read more

Full Disclosure: Jesika and I've been friends since we were 13 years old so I might be a little biased when I say she's one of the funniest, nicest, and most upbeat people I know. I hang out with her a lot, but it wasn't until this past Saturday when I've actually worked out with her at one of her Saturday morning boot camp sessions by the beach. We've been saying we should work out together forEVER but it was usually a scheduling thing that prevented me from doing anything regular with her. Besides, I was always training for one marathon or another and when you're doing that there's very little time for other kinds of physical training (well, for me, anyway :P). Since my next half marathon training won't be starting up for a few months, I thought it'd be a great chance to check out one of her boot camp sessions. It was a great cross-training opportunity for me, since I run mostly and even when I do weights at the gym I don't really push myself all that much. Plus, it's not as expensive when you do a group class. Spring is here and it's really nice to be exercising outdoors anyway. I must say, my first workout was pretty intense--I ended up doing all the stuff I usually avoid, like lunges, push ups, running up and down stairs, etc etc. It was very challenging, which was great, but if some of the stuff gets to be too much you can totally modify to suit your fitness level. Jesika never yells or screams at you (unless you want her to) but she'll work you hard. Even though I whined and complained and got really sore from taxing some unused muscles, I'll be going back for more next week. read more

Bodyflex Personal Training and Nutrition - a pic from one of the articles she wrote for Long Beach magazine - Trainers Near Me - Long Beach, California

I needed a personal trainer to get me back into shape but I knew what I needed was somewhat of a tall order. What I needed was a female trainer with her own studio and close to work. I used to have one in HB a few years ago but she lost her studio due to the asshole shopping center management raising her rent! So I fell off, until I started my search again for a trainer. Im so happy I came across Jesika. She totally blows my last trainer out the water. Only because my last trainer was about a year older than me and still new to having her own studio to train in. Jesika is very knowledgable and kicks your ass. She's makes you use more of your own body weight to hold and balance yourself while do certain reps. Shes all about you working the whole body for each and everything you do. She always keeps it new, no kidding! I never been worked this hard physically in my life! Which is what we all need LOL. She also sends you texts here and there to make sure your doing what your supposed to do. She also makes you feel comfortable as if your old friends :) I will continue seeing her and im glad we met. read more

Jesika is fantastic and makes IT happen! She is an amazing person....always happy, positive and easy going. I look forward to my workouts with Jesika every week. You will get hooked on her crazy evil laugh and find yourself doing "only 40 more of those" and never know what hit you! Her workouts are perfect she really understands what your body is capable of and when it is time to change things up. I have been going to Jesika for over a month and I have already lost 10% body fat! The results have been fantastic and even a surprise to Jesika when she took my measurements! I can't wait for months 2 and 3's results!!! Couple of tips....if you want an excellent trainer call Jesika and tell her what you are looking to do...if you can show up do the work, do your cardio and keep your eating in check, you will get the results you are looking for and probably even better!!!! No diets here!!!! Jesika designed a food plan for me to follow after listening to the types of food I eat....no canned tuna or cottage cheese for me! We are talking beef!!!! You will be happy to know Jesika herself is a foodie and cook and loves to enjoy life so she will never try to fit you into some diet box! One more thing...I don't live in Long Beach and some days it takes me 30 minutes to get to my appointment with traffic, but it is so worth it. If you really want an excellent trainer and you are close to Long Beach I suggest you give her a call!!!! read more

I was introduce to Jeskia by my cousin who lives in Long beach, I was over for a 2 week holiday from Australia and I wanted to work out whilst on holiday. When I met Jeskia she was super friendly and may be feel very comfortable. Then came the fun part - our work out. I told her I wanted to that I was wanting to lose my pregnancy belly... From there the pain began (lol) - we worked every part of my body and as I did each execrise Jeskia explained what each muscle was doing and why I was doing it. Making it easy for me to understand what my body was doing and why it was doing that. As when I was working out with my trainer in Australia he never explained why my muscles were hurting and what to do about it, Jeskia explained this to me with a full explanation. Which was helpful. Jeskia explained out important it was for me to eat properly and explained what i could do to help loss the weight when I returned to Australia. I saw Jeskia for 3 work out session and I would recommend her to anyone. Jeskia motivated me more to want to lose the weight. Jeskia walked me through everything very clearly so you know what to do each time.Since being back at home in Australia and following all of Jeskia advise I have been able to lose weight. Jeskia is an amazing trainer and there should be more of her around. I have the confident to lose the weight and I wish I could have began her back with me.Jesika thanks your one in a million. read more

Jesika is an amazing personal trainer! She worked with me seamlessly to match my specific goals. She is all about making sure you are using the weight equipment correctly and pushing you to your highest potential. When I had lower back problems, she came up with exercises and stretches that healed me. I feel stronger than ever! Better than merely a physical trainer, Jesika created meal plan for me and even took me grocery shopping to find the healthiest food!. I look and feel great, and trust Jesika to adapt to my goals and needs as they arise. She is also really sweet! read more

After 20 years of being away from the gym, I began training sessions with Jesika Fleming about a month ago. I've started with 3 days a week which have already increased my daily energy level and overall motivation. On my initial workout we discussed my current areas of physical strengths and weaknesses and Jesika applied modifications to personally design my exercise needs. Jesika is outgoing and has great personality, which makes going to the gym a pleasure and not a chore!! read more

I trained with Jesika from late 2011 to late 2012. I started training with her because I wanted to bulk up with muscle and improve my strength. I have always been fairly active, but I never had focused on my strength. Jesika was very up front with me about the amount of work I would need to do (and food I would need to eat!) to reach my goals. I put on a lot of muscle and was feeling great but after a work schedule change, I decided to focus on strength instead of bulking up. I noticed a tremendous difference in my strength and agility. I went rock scrambling in Palm Springs and was amazed at how much my stamina had increased. I got really busy at work for awhile, so I took a break for a bit, but in 2013 a friend got me to sign up for a Spartan race (boot camp style obstacle race). I knew exactly what I needed to do so I went back to Jesika. The Spartan race went incredibly well, which I attribute to Jesika's training, and I was very happy with my performance. Some of the obstacles I performed with an ease that surprised me. Even after going over 8 miles, I was able to complete a high grueling rope climb. Without the training I would not have had the strength to pull myself up after all the other obstacles I had done. Jesika is a great trainer. She listened to my goals and tailored my training and eating plan to them, then adjusted it as my goals changed. She's very easy to talk to and puts you completely at ease. She always kept a good eye on my form to make sure I was doing the exercises correctly. The workouts were invigorating and challenging and I was VERY happy with the results! I recommend Jesika without hesitation. read more

In my 25+ years at rehabbing from a serious motorcycle accident that resulted in a one month coma, I have yet to come across a more positive, personable & knowledgeable physical trainer ..... who customizes an effective diet/workout regiment with a keen eye on NOT overwhelming her clients' pocketbooks or busy lives outside the gym. read more

I have been training with Jesika for almost 2 years now and she is absolutely wonderful! She is motivating and upbeat and her captivating conversations make you forget that you are working out (or maybe she is just tricking me so I can't keep count?) I have lost approximately 90 lbs and she has helped me to completely transform my body. I'm so happy that I found her! read more

I am now 59 yrs old and have been training with Jesika for 4 years. I am in so much better shape with an incredible increase in strength and flexibility. Progress has been slow and steady and life changing. I have had absolutely no issues with the business side of the operation and the physical training part is tailored to my limitations. I cannot recommend Jesika enough! read more

After years of being a couch potato, I decided that it was time to get back in shape. I started working out with Jesika about 2 months ago and I have already seen amazing results. I still have a long way to go in order to achieve my ultimate goal but thanks to Jesika, I am confident that I will be successful. Jesika is motivational, patient, and kind, but she still provides challenging workouts. She knows when to push or modify. Jesika is always professional, flexible and fair! I highly recommend her because she is the very best. I wish I could give more than 5 stars. read more

I've been going to Jessika for about 1 year. I think she's a great trainer even though she makes me do stuff that I hate! Try her out!

I trained with Jesika two times a week for about 5 months and I lost around 5% body fat by then! She's very positive and outgoing and constantly corrects my form, and also gave great tips on diet and nutrition. I highly recommend her! read more

I'm warning everyone that reads this IF YOU GO TO THIS GYM THEY MIGHT TRY AND STEAL YOUR MONEY! I've been very ill and the Jessika the personal trainer I had decided she didn't want to train me and said she would refund me my money for the rest of my sessions and then her and her assistant refused to give it back to me and even threatened if I came to the property they would call the police. I bought 8 sessions for 30 mins and then decided I wanted to do the hour sessions which are $320 more. They charged the extra $320 for the hour sessions on the wrong card so they refunded me and then I automatically sent them the money back from my credit card. They kept saying they didn't get it but I sent them my bank statements as well as PayPal transaction ID's and refused to give it back and threatened to call the police on me. DO NOT GO HERE AND SPEND YOUR MONEY you might get robbed like me. I've never experienced such horrible business and customer service in my life! You have to go through the assistant to book your sessions and they had no communication and both of them kept trying to say different things to me. read more

I am not generally one to write reviews, but want people to know Jesika is 5 stars all the way. I have been working out with Jesika on a weekly basis for over two years. In a year's time alone I have dropped 25 inches and 20 pounds. Yes, it is slow hard work, but it is because of Jesika's dedication to my health and well-being that I have come this far. I am healthier, stronger, and feel great. Jesika is patient, never judges (especially when I might fall off the wagon now and then with my eating) and motivational. I actually look forward to my workouts. She always comes to each session prepared to give you 100% of herself with a friendly smile on her face. She has even helped by teenage son develop a workout and eating plan that is both healthy and appropriate for his age and fitness needs. Lastly, both Jesika and Laurence (who handles scheduling and payments) are the utmost professionals and this is a finely run business. I highly recommend BodyFlex to anyone looking for a quality professional trainer. You will not be disappointed!!! read more

Jesika is such a great trainer! I have been training with her for about 11-12 years and I've always been happy with the results. Jesika is incredibly knowledgeable about training, nutrition, and modifications one needs depending on their physical limitations. I've struggled with back pain for the last few years, and Jesika has been able to take that into account. She has developed personalized workouts for me that don't make my back pain worse. Jesika always mixes up my workouts; I love that I never know which exercise she's going to surprise me with. Jesika is so patient, she puts up with my whining and complaining about exercising, yet she always manages to get me do whatever exercise she just demonstrated for me. She's got such a great sense of humor, she has me laughing a lot, and between the laughter and our easy chatter, the hour goes by quickly. Throughout the years, Jesika has been the ultimate professional. When money became an issue many years ago, she worked things out with me so that I could keep training with her. I'll never forget that! Once she got her assistant, things got even easier. Her assistant is wonderful about sending me reminders for payments. She is available by text and email for payment and scheduling changes. I love that I can pay now through PayPal and keep track of my payments (gone are the days of me trying to remember if I got my check to Jesika on time!) I always recommend Jesika to my friends and coworkers. Her positive, upbeat demeanor and her hilarious sense of humor have kept me coming back year after year, despite the fact that I'd much rather stay on my couch and take a nap!! read more
