Few things about this gym and services…read more I have been working with the owner for close to 10 years. I can say that the impact this man had in my life has been significant to my overall success and growth as a person. Anytime I think of fitness this man comes to mind. He knows his stuff and more. He knows alternate exercises and variations for those injured or with some sort of issue. I haven't always looked or felt better than after a workout with Chris (Owner), I have tried many other gyms, but there's a reason I at times opt to just take a rest day than to workout with someone else. He knows his stuff and promotes a good atmosphere, if in doubt try him out and experience the difference. I have a 300 lb. pic, I went all the way down to 165 lb at some point and now I'm in between 175 lb and 180 lb. My goals have shifted from weight loss, to muscle, to more lean and whatever life allows me to shoot for, however Chris knows how to get me out of any plateaus I get into. Anytime I recommend someone, it's him

He keeps the class sizes small enough to ensure attention to all his clients, teaching proper form all while creating a super fun, high energy workout environment.

He also offers a variety of class times to accommodate work schedules.

I always sort of felt weird, like a spectacle, having someone watch me while I workout, but Sam makes it fun every single session! She's a great conversationalist and really makes it feel like you're just working out with a friend (who keeps you honest and hard working!) and she totally has also become a great friend! When I started working with Sam, I saw results IMMEDIATELY. It helped that I was instantly at ease with her cause I could be 100% honest about my weight gain situation. She soon got me on track with a healthy meal plan (I seldom felt hungry or unsatisfied) and lost, gosh, 30lbs in just a few months?! I hadn't looked or felt that good in so long- love weight is a bitch, but Sam is the cure! I had to take some time off my routine because of a hectic time in life recently, gained a little weight, but now I'm back and getting ready to head to Hawaii! I know that Sam and I will get me back to where I want to be, because I know her method is effective- the hardest part is just disciplining yourself. Personal training is never cheap, but with a trainer like Sam it's become a necessary living expense- she's worth it, because I'm worth it! Can't do it without my Sam!

Personal training was something I had been thinking about for a while but hadn't been as successful…read morein the past. I needed someone to give me that extra push. Sam was just what I needed! Right from day one, I could tell that she was dedicated to my goals and interested in working with me to achieve my milestones. She really helped me develop a habit of working out and changing my lifestyle rather than just running through workouts with me. She is very responsive to your progress as you train with her and not to mention, keeps her workouts dynamic. I was never bored with our sessions and found that she constantly pushed me as soon as I had mastered an exercise. With Sam I was able to discover new methods of toning up past just using the weight room. Over the course of the few months that I trained with her, I've definitely become more active and mindful of my fitness regime. Additionally, Sam is great work with on a personal level as well. She's fun and very amiable. I found it very easy to talk to her which in turn just helped increase my comfort level with her. I highly recommend Sam to help anyone achieve their fitness goals. If I hadn't moved, I certainly would have continued training with her! Completely worth the investment.

I've been going to this Planet Fitness location for the past year and have never had that issue. This location is in an office park, so parking is plentiful.

There's almost always a massage chair or hydro massage open as well. Great reliable and affordable gym!

I came with him on Monday 6/22 at 5:30 pm and was told we'd be charged. I said but we didn't know to freeze it. The manager Stormy promised she'd handle it before her break. She never did. Got charged $15 three days later. Called in today 6/25 and talked to the GM. I believe her name was Crystal. Crystal said there was nothing she could do because Stormy never wrote it down. So their mistake becomes my problem? And the note of someone who didn't follow through on her word yields more weight than me telling the 100% truth. What!?!?! Crystal said that she's going to talk to Stormy during her next shift this Saturday. She said she'd have Stormy call me. When I asked her if she knew my name and had my mobile no, she said no. She was gonna hang up without ever getting it. There's also a guy with long dark hair at the front isn't helpful who just stares- very creepy It's only $15. But I was lied to, dismissed, and made to feel like I was the problem. A manager made a promise, didn't keep it, and leadership covered for it. That's a culture issue.

I am writing this (perfect timing) after a 45 min run, with zero knee pain, and all the running…read morehighs! I found Alex in January of 2015. I had just come from a weekend away in Palm Springs, where I had planned to relax, run, and engage in as much fitness as possible. I headed out for a run on New Years Day; new shoes, new lululemon pants, new Garmin watch, and after about 20 min. my outer knee was in so much pain I had to basically walk the rest of the way home. I was devastated and confused. Not only had I run for about an hour for 2 days in a row prior, I have been an avid runner since High School. Even with icing my knee for about 3 days straight, nothing was helping and I knew I had done something more serious. My history of running - I have run a total of around 4 or 5 half marathons easily, no knee pain since 2012. Completed many 10K's and casual runs on my own at least twice a week for years. It was something that happened so out of the blue, I am just thankful that Alex entered my life when he did. He started out with the basics, which at the time seemed a little out of context. "What other workouts do you do? What has changed in your exercise in the last year". I couldn't really come up with much, other than lots of YOGA. Becoming a certified Yoga teacher and basically doing yoga everyday for the past year only seemed like it was helping my running. Of course. Alex saw this as a red flag right away. With the types of exercises that I was engaging in on a weekly basis, I was only extending ligaments and asking parts of my body (my knee) to over compensate. This then effected my IT band, more weight in my calfs, soreness, you name it. It's a vicious cycle. After about 5 sessions with Alex - he not only identified the root cause of my pain, but trained me to run in a different pattern so I could alleviate the pain, without having to give up what I love. We took everything in phases, added in weights, combined static movements with real time workouts and in no time, I was back. To this day pain or not, I have shifted the way I run bc he has taught to me always look ahead. Alex sees prevention of injury like no one else I have ever met. I am not a very optimistic person when it comes to my body, bc I am very in tune with how it wants operate, or not operate for that matter. I was completely in awe when I made it through my first 30 min. From January 25th, when I tried to run a 5K and made it 5 min, to about mid February, I was running about 25-30 min. and now, I can run over an hour with no knee pain. Alex sees things and connections that no one else I have ever see does. I went to 2 different knee specialists who were runners themselves and left with very little optimism, and zero improvement. Alex has a holistic approach to the body that cannot necessarily be taught. It's in his intuitive nature and he sees the way in which body connects. This knowledge that he has is why he can not only guide people to overcome their injuries, but can advise on how to avoid degenerative tendencies that come with age, overuse, and in my opinion... a passion for your sport. I couldn't be more thankful for his knowledge, expertise and precision when it comes to the human body and protecting it for the rest of the active I life I have. Thanks Alex! :)

Ironic how the front desk employee waved me over and a sales manager tried to upsell mealmost like they had a bet to see if I would buy. hilarious behavior..honestly think my 16 year old cousin is a better and more socially aware salesman Super unprofessional and quite frankly disrespectful. Embarrassing to be quite frank. The employees that have been there for a while are not too bad. Renovations designed by a toddler...I heard they are switching the outdoor to a pickle ball court Only reason I'm still a member at this gym is because of convenience as there are many in San Diego and throughout California as a whole. 24 management do better... or at least train salesmen in hospitality bc that was sorry asf

Renovation? You Mean Rearranging?…read more I've been a member of this gym for almost 5 years, and honestly, it feels like it has gone downhill despite all the promises. For months we were told broken equipment would not be repaired because a major renovation was coming. Fair enough. Except now the "renovation" is supposedly complete, and I'm struggling to figure out what was actually renovated. Rearranging equipment is not a renovation. The cardio machines were moved and now many of them are literally sitting underneath the TVs, making the layout awkward and poorly thought out. The cycling room had the bikes removed and placed outside the room, while the space appears to have been filled with concrete and construction debris. The solution for ventilation in the expanded weight area seems to be one giant fan expected to cool the entire room. We were also told the outside turf area was being turned into a pickleball court. First of all, who is playing pickleball at a 24-hour gym 24/7? Second, there is no visible sign that an actual pickleball court is being constructed. The area is just blocked off so members can't use it anymore. It feels random, pointless, and honestly very weird. The cleanliness has become one of the biggest concerns. The water fountains are disgusting. There is visible rust, mineral buildup, dust, and grime around the drinking areas. These are not just cosmetic issues anymore; they feel like a health concern. Looking at them makes you question whether they are being maintained at all. The gym also seems to have given up on broken equipment. I think they've even run out of "Out of Order" signs because machines stay broken for so long without any real indication of whether they are being repaired or replaced. What's most frustrating is that they held a "Grand Reopening" last week. Grand reopening for what exactly? The construction area still looks unfinished, equipment is still broken, the water fountains look like they belong in an abandoned building, and the overall experience has not improved. Their slogan is "24 Hour Fitness - Do More." Maybe it's time they took their own advice.

The classes are 9 people max, so it's not crowded. You each have your own station where you have the exercises listed for you to accomplish, demonstrations on how to perform the exercises, guidance on how to perfect your form, and they time it perfectly so that you get each station (there are 3) done in time. I have seen the most positive changes in my body since attending classes here - stronger, toned, and no pain from performing an exercise with bad form. If you are searching for a new gym with planned classes and knowledgeable coaches, I highly recommend giving this one a try!

I initially bought 10 sessions of personal training and figured I'd go until my sessions were up,…read moreand then use what I learned to do it myself at the gym. That was 8 months ago, and I refuse to give up my personal trainer. Keith's passion for training is evident with every single workout. He knows exactly how to draw the most out of you, working you to your maximum through a combination of drilling and cheer leading. You come to expect more out of yourself because HE expects more out of you. He helps you find an inner strength that you never even knew you had. His training doesn't stop when your hour is up, either. He works with you on your nutrition too, developing a calorie plan, recommending meals, and even reviewing your food logs daily. He takes progress photos and pulls them out just when you start to get discouraged, showing you how far you've come. I am down over 50 pounds and am wearing a pants size that is literally half the size of the ones I was wearing the day I walked into S&S the first time. It isn't easy, but Keith has this way of making you NOT want to quit - even when it sucks. It's one of the hardest and most rewarding things I've done in a long time. I don't plan on ever quitting.

He is extremely keen about people's fitness and nutrition needs and will tailor the perfect program for you (old injuries, aches and pains included). He will push you beyond your comfort zone but he does it with intelligence and will not skip the laws of progression. He is fun, smart and never dull! The workouts are always different, he remembers where you left off last time, he doesn't just tell you what to do but he explains the science behind the exercise then you execute, oh and by the way he knows when you're BSing to get out of it too so isn't that's a plus?! As a former dancer I needed intensity but I also needed structured guidance to achieve my goals, so far he's gotten me into following a nutrition plan that takes into consideration my body's issues and my work outs never fail to "kill" me, I "die" everytime. I've never liked the gym, but I am always looking forward to my sessions with Keith, I never know what the workout will look like, im never certain about how im going to feel but what I do know is that Keith will be there 100% on his game and 100% ready to kick my butt.
