Results day 1! I left my first CFBBC workout remembering what it's like to be strong, something I hadn't felt in the two years that I'd put on 30 lbs. 2 weeks in I had a physical and the nurse doing my vitals asked if I'm a runner (no), because my resting heart rate was so low. That was the second sign that I was in the right place to get me back into shape. I thought I was joining the "little gym" down the street. I ended up joining a group of welcoming people of all fitness levels, all sizes, colors, shapes. When they say a fitness family, it's true. When you see the same people every day, all working toward the same goals, it's easy to make friends. At CFBBC no one watches you, judges you, cares about your outfit or hair, that you're sweating profusely or are lifting 'til you grunt. Everyone goes at their own pace and everyone's pace changes day to day. On my best days I'm pushing out one or two more reps than the lifer next to me. So even those that have been there for years have less great days. People are encouraging and supportive. And it just feels very equal. Most importantly, I have the best trainer, motivator and coach there to support me. As said in all the other reviews, there's just nothing like having Virgil cheering you on. He honestly believes in every person who walks through the door. He knows every person by name. That type of personal consideration just feels great when you're working your butt off. Makes all the difference. read more

If you're looking for a great workout with a trainer that doesn't give up on you, then this is the place for you. I was over the gym atmosphere and the same repetitive workout routine. Around the summer of 2019, I found this studio on Yelp and decided to attend a session with Virgil. He was very welcoming and super helpful during my first session. We discussed my health/fitness goals and a plan for me to stay consistent with my workout routine. It was a struggle in the beginning because I haven't had a solid workout in years. Overtime with consistency, I gradually became used to the workout routine and have seen such a difference in my overall physical and mental health. Based on my past experiences with trainers, Virgil has exceeded my expectations. He holds you accountable and is involved in your health/fitness journey. Even in my moments, where I slacked off, he checked in on me on a regular basis to get me back on track, which I definitely need. I recently moved to Chicago and did not want to find another trainer out here, so Virgil was flexible enough to conduct virtual sessions. He has gone above and beyond to help me on my health/fitness journey. This studio is worth investing in!!! read more

Don't believe the hype here. Not sure how this establishment gets a 5star rating. The trainer has taken advantage of client insecurities for personal gain.. Shady business . Husbands beware. Unsanitary environment, you workout on carpet, people lay down dripping in sweat, weights and equipment used are not sanitized after each class, the back office is unorganized, poor ventilation. There is no shower. There are better , cleaner gyms out there. And he over charges if you don't know any better. He'll tell you he has the best rate in town but really it the same price with much less amenities. read more

I'm an Fbbc member from arizona travelling on vacation through California. I called ahead to stop in at Fbbc Concord. Got a text back later that night with all the info. Showed up in the morning ready to go. The coach, virgil, was welcoming and fun. Helped me with my form and challenged me. The other people training were friendly and welcoming as well. Good times. read more

WARNING - Highly recommended if you want AMAZING life changing results! I've tried places around the area and this place goes above and beyond. There will always be nearby competitors but once you walk in you'll know for yourself. Virgil is an amazing trainer that personalizes his workouts for your current fitness level - but still motivates you to exceed your own expectations every session! I've been coming here for almost 10 months now and I absolutely love it. You'll definitely replace your *actual fat loss* (not just water weight) the healthy way by being replaced with increased muscle, stamina, energy and confidence! He also ensures that CFBBC is always a friendly, welcoming place to be. The workouts are always different and I love that about this place. You'll never know what you'll be expected to accomplish until you get there! Thanks Virgil! I was lucky to find CFBBC! read more

Concord Fitness Boot Camp - Boot Camps Near Me - Concord, California

The previous boot camp I enjoyed attending, for unfortunate reasons, are no longer around. After receiving a referral to CFBBC, I was a bit hesitant but had to check it out to see if Virgil was as good as everyone was saying... He exceeded my expectations! After the first session at CFBBC, it was evident that Virgil is not only great at what he does but is extremely passionate about training. He is highly motivated, pushing you to your limit to ensure you're making the most of your workout. He pays attention to every detail of your form... And does not let you get away with it (which means less susceptibility to injury and forces your overall body to work harder). It's like having your own personal trainer! He is very patient with taking the time to explain correct form and does not judge! If he senses you're getting tired, he will give you the motivation you need to help you push through and finish strong. That's exactly what I need! Like many others, I was curious as to why the sessions were only about 30-40 minutes long. After my first day, I know exactly why... Virgil makes you work HARD through the workout. Break? What break? Just give all that you got for the 30-40 minutes, and you will not be disappointed. I've been sore all over for all week. It's been a long time since I've been in this much pain (the good kind that lets you know you worked your butt off working out)! I strongly encourage everyone to check out CFBBC! Virgil will not disappoint you... read more

Love this place!! So I was originally a member of Dublin FBBC and Clayton FBBC and I can't believe I wasted all that time with those gyms because the concord one completely blows my mind! The work outs are intense and high paced every single day and you actually leave feeling like u did a work out. Usually at the other FBBCs I would have to do two sessions to feel anything. I just recently visited one of the old ones and didn't even break a sweat after the work out and can not wait to get back to concord tomorrow for my real work out session. I'm usually burning 600+ calories per session in concord and can feel and see the difference in my body. I can also feel the difference when I miss a day or a week. Virgil the trainer and owner is hands down the best yet! read more

5 years ago I was 50 pounds overweight as I approached my 50th birthday. I had some medical issues due to the weight. My wife got a groupon for a bootcamp in town which I attended until I found Concord Fit Body Bootcamp. I lost 50 pounds and I am now almost 55 years old. The past three years, I have been running Spartan Races. I was able to finish the Spartan Trifecta in 2017 and 2018. My doctor is amazed at the transformation that has occurred and said that I "have the heart of an athlete." Virgil is an incredible trainer. He is patient and can show you how to modify the move if you are a beginner. He focuses on form to avoid injuries. He does a great job of balancing between helping you and motivating you to get better. Over the past 5 years I have seen him work with all types of people and he has done a great job. In fact, I have had my son and daughter start coming to get fit. The other thing I appreciate is the aerobics mat that we work out on. I have knee issues from playing quite a bit of basketball when I was younger. The aerobics mat has quite a bit of give and helps my knees not hurt after the exercise. The workouts are high energy. The people at the bootcamp are warm and caring. I now call many of them friends. When a new person comes in, people ensure that the new person is helped during the session and feel welcome. This is an incredible community that supports all members. They encourage you if you have trouble and are there to celebrate the successes with you. I am extremely grateful that I met Virgil 5 years ago. I have an incredible amount of respect for him as a trainer and a family man. Over the last 5 years, he has been there for me whenever I needed help with my diet, workout, or any other health issue. If I had not found a Concord Fit Body Bootcamp, I might not be here right now for my kids. I plan to continue to work out here until I grow so old that I can't work out. The workouts make me a better husband, father, and business owner. read more

So this is my first impression review. I use to go to P2P. & like I've said before on Yelp that is a great Gym. I did their 20 in 6 challenge and that is something I don't recommend to anyone. I stopped going a year ago and since then I have been looking for a gym as great as theirs and so far it seems I've finally found it. I called the gym the day I found them on Yelp and Virgil who I believe is the owner called me personally and was on the phone with him for 30 mins. He even got me to come in and workout the very next day! The next day that I came in he of course had me fill out paperwork and took my weight and body fat percentage. And since then he had followed up with me. It's been now about two weeks since I got started there and every time I don't show up Virgil messages me on Facebook to ask why. That is something that has sold me. I've gained weight because I couldn't hold myself accountable for my actions so the fact that he keeps me accountable is great. Also during the workouts he and the other trainers I've met so far watch you and make sure you are practicing good form. The classes are small so that helps keep things personal. I have signed up for their year membership with a meal plan. I will follow it and update this review in a month or two after I can really form a judgement. read more

If there were infinite stars, that's how I would rate CFBBC. Virgil is an amazing trainer who is invested in each and every members' goals. I have been to a few different bootcamps and this is by far the best. From the trainers to the group and their dedication and support, you're guaranteed to meet your goal and enjoy doing it! read more

Concord Fitness Boot Camp - Boot Camps Near Me - Concord, California

CFBBC provides a fitness regiment that will challenge you in time-efficient workout sessions. Trainer Virgil is passionate about fitness training and he leads the class with a positive and fun edge. But there is no opportunity for slacking - whatever your fitness level, you will definitely get a challenging workout at this studio. The trainers that help run the classes are also really upbeat and motivating, and the attendees are supportive and welcoming. Class sizes vary throughout the week - sometimes only a handful of people show up and other times the room is full of people. Either way there is plenty of space and equipment for everyone and the energy is high. The studio is clean and the equipment is well-maintained. You work all parts of your body and the pace is fast so there's cardio involved, too. The workouts are approximately 40 mins with Saturday sessions running a little longer. You start off with some intense warm-ups, then move to stretching, and then on to the circuits. The routines are always changed up so that keeps things interesting. Virgil runs the studio in a way that makes it easy to attend classes. You're not restricted to signing up for the same class times throughout the week, which makes this a really accessible program for people who have ever-changing schedules in their personal/work lives. There are no gimmicks involved with this fitness program. You are not pressured into any kind of special diet or supplement system... you're just encouraged to take care of your body the old-fashioned way: eat good food, watch your portions, and exercise. Go to CFBBC if you want to engage in a meaningful workout routine that will get you feeling and looking better in no time. read more

Where do i even start... Well to put it simply this place made me realize there's more to working out than just lifting a bunch of heavy plates and running around. I'm a cynical person in general and quite familiar with the health industry. Coming in i already knew the workouts were gonna be intense and with it comes the exhiliration that we often associate with a "good" workout. My cynisisms were quickly quelled during the workout when I saw how passionate the trainer (Virgil) was. Addressing his clients with their first names, encouraging them and pushing them to their safe limits. It was gut busting and awe inspiring at the same time that it quickly drew me in to the experience. It was only a matter of time before the results started coming in...gradually and naturally. The community in this facility is light hearted and fun. Whether you're a loner or social butterfly you'll feel welcome. The people gathered here are bonded with the hardwork they put in as individuals, which is always an inspiring thing to experience. Trainer Virgil has truly created a form of lifestyle for his clients, ironic in a way, considering you literally go in their to get a heapful serving of whoop ass. We come nonetheless, Ready, willing and happy. Do yourselves a favor and try it out! read more

I've now been at Concord Fit Body Boot Camp for more than four years. I still love it. The workouts are varied, Virgil's enthusiasm hasn't waned a bit and, best of all, I turned 50 last year and feel stronger and more fit than I did 15 years ago. I was always an endurance athlete - running, biking and swimming - but never saw much change in my body. High intensity interval and strength training at CFBBC has made all the difference. Start today and two to three months from now you'll see and feel a real difference. read more

Amazing place, amazing people and the guy behind all this is the trainer - Virgil. He instils this momentum and energy into you, within no time you see yourself getting used to this routine. It feels really good and is unlike any other personal training you have at regular gyms. Having spent tons of money on various gym memberships and personal training classes I can definitely say this is the best one I came across so far ! People here are really friendly and always supportive. There is absolutely no judging and everyone starts and works at their own pace. I would recommend this to anyone who is serious and wants to give it a try to change the way they workout. Try it out !! meet the crew, the trainer and be the judge for yourself. read more

So my goal for this bootcamp was to shred some weight for my summer trips. Trainer Virgil put me on a meal plan and motivated me throughout all of these high intensity workouts. Some trainers only tell you what to do but Virgil actually works out with you and pushes you to your last bit of energy so you can really see end results. Started at 210 and ended at like 190 in less than a couple of months. What really stood out to me was the amount of body fat % I cut and the amount of muscle I retained. I feel great and would strongly recommend Concord Fitbody Bootcamp for anyone looking to shred weight. Thanks for everything Virgil! read more

Did one class. After not being able to make the classes cause I have kids and own a business and need child care and didn't want to waste money or time. He was texting me to make sure I was okay after the first class but when I told him I was going to join a gym that need childcare he never responded or said good luck or anything. I thought it was rude for not saying anything but no hard feelings. His class is definitely good but I did feel alittle out of place everyone was very fit. read more

I've been attending classes with Virgil for the last 3 weeks and I love it!! Small classes, so you get attention, the place is clean, and the energy is great! Being a college student, finding a place that offers quick (yet killer) workouts that kick start my day and work with my schedule worked out perfectly here. Prior to bootcamp, i did cheerleading years ago, so i was afraid of how I'd do since these workouts are high intensity. However, if you're looking to improve stamina, this workout is perfect. My problem is giving up, being lazy, and running out of breath easily, but all of this has improved in the few sessions I've done so far! Virgil is a wonderful trainer who will push you, check in on how you are doing, and help you reach your goals. In just three weeks, I'm feeling very strong and have lost 1% of body fat (without even changing eating habits) If you're looking to lose weight or get back to it, this is the place!! read more

I took my first class yesterday and it was amazing! I will be signing up for the 21 day fat furnace tomorrow. I run 5 days a week on my lunch break but that didn't prepare me for this class, I didn't think I would sweat that much! I loved the vibe of the class and felt motivated all the way thru. The forty minutes flew by. I look forward to going to the next class and losing a few pounds for my wedding while toning up! read more

I was looking for a change to my regular exercise routine and for a new challenge. A friend introduced me to CFBBC and I decided to give this place a try. I am now hooked! Virgil at CFBBC is very motivating truly cares about helping you meet your fitness goals. He doesn't just take your money and not care if you come back. The classes are challenging and go by so quickly. Virgil does a great job of changing it up. Everyone is so positive, motivating and completely non-judgmental. Adding this boot camp to my exercise routine, has improved my biking and running. Highly recommend! read more

I've tried lots of group classes, cross fit gyms, and boot camps in the last few years...what sets CFBBC apart from the rest is the customized and personal focus given to you throughout each workout, as well as the friendly and positive member community. I've been going for about two weeks now, and I already feel stronger and more energized. Every class is different and never boring - most importantly, you will build strength and meet your fitness and health goals with the great support of the amazing owner and instructors. The environment is very welcoming and you'll find yourself looking forward to working out everyday, and you'll always be challenged. I'm really glad I found CFBBC! read more

I was looking to maintain my FBBC workout while on vacation in CA. I was so happy to discover a FBBC a few miles from my Dad's house. What can I say........Virgil is a beast. I did get a little spoiled though. His workouts are LONGER than the regular 30 minutes which I loved (as crazy as it sounds). I felt stronger when I left!! I got so much out of his workout that I felt cheated when I got back home. The music was on point and the members were so kind and welcoming. CFBBC will be my home away from home when I'm in CA. Thanks Virgil. read more

This gym is a hidden gem in concord. Initially I was working out at P2P but they weren't too eager to have me sign up, despite my willingness to even sign a contract. Anyway, through a friend I found out about this bootcamp and I feel like my friend gave me the winning lotto ticket! This place is great! It will definitely kick your butt, but in a good way. Classes are small enough so that we get a lot of attention from Virgil who keeps a close eye on our form. We have fun the whole time, despite the fact that we are seriously being pushed. From the first class I had I knew that the ambiance is unlike any other gym out there. Virgil is a wonderful owner and takes a lot of care to make the place great. I highly recommend this gym!! read more

Concord Fit Body Boot Camp (CFBBC) opened in November of this year. It was perfect timing for me since my boot camp I had been training with for the past year and a half abruptly closed its doors. When I first met Virgil prior to joining CFBBC, I knew it was going to be a great fit for me. My first session at CFBBC kicked my butt....in a good way, and continues to challenge me every time I walk through the door. Virgil is an awesome trainer and is truly dedicated to each and every one of his clients. He pushes you to maximize your workouts while using good form to prevent injury and get great results. The studio is small but Virgil has it set up in a way that it never feels overcrowded. I would recommend anyone in the area looking for a great trainer at a reasonable price to check out CFBBC. read more

Virgil has offered to honor the Groupon price even though I cancelled the order. Very thoughtful.

I wish I knew about this gym before, but I'm very glad that I have found it! I have been going here for a month now and enjoyed every single session. I injured myself from CrossFit, missed a few months of work out. So I started to look for something that would be give me a good workout without adding more stress to my injury, and here I am - getting back into my fitness with the most awesome morning crew and coach, Virgil! He is very supportive of your fitness goals and will keep you on track. A very positive coach who will work out with you during class! Bootcamp training is fun and exciting! read more

First let me say hands down this is the best boot camp I have ever been too!! The trainer is amazing you can see his passion and love for fitness and helping people meet their goals! I have been going for 6months now and it hasn't been an easy road but Virgil has been there for me helping me thru more important not giving up on me. The gym environment is also wonderful everyone that goes supports everyone there's no individual groups it all feels like one big family! I'm so happy to have found this place so come in check it out if you need to challenge your self and want to be part of something great:) read more

I've been coming here since January, i got to a weight I didn't want to be! My friend Shannon kept bugging me to try out her gym maybe months prior to me finally deciding to join the team. So one day I finally said " I do not want to be this weight anymore so it is time to make a change." I went in the next day and did a session to see if I liked it. And I LOVED it! Of course it was gonna be hard the first couple weeks I knew what I was getting into. Everyday I get excited to go to this gym because I walk in there ready to burn calories. I give it my all every time. I now use weights that even some of the men use. I am currently down 20lbs and feeling great I look in the mirror everyday and feel comfortable in my own skin and it makes me happy and confident to know that I did this. Of course I have more weight I want to loose and I plan on keeping it going and get to where i wanna be. I definitely encourage everyone to check this place out! It is life changing and Virgil (the trainer) is amazing he will push u to ur limit! He wants u to get to where u wanna be and if u ask he will do everything u need for you to achieve your goals. Of course it won't be easy but nothing ever is, so get out there and do it! Don't wait another day, it time starts today!! read more

It's about time that I post a review for this place. When they said FitFam they mean it! It's truly a family. If you want to have a great place to workout with everyone from the trainer to the other boot-campers motivating you- then this is the place. The results are real. I'm not just losing weigh- I'm building strong muscles. read more

I've been going to Concord Fit Body Bootcamp for over a month know and have enjoyed every minute of it. I've recommended the gym to a bunch of my friends and family, and stand by my word. They're great workouts that are not only time efficient but effective. The best selling point is probably the trainer, Virgil. He works very hard at giving you quality workouts, making sure your form is correct, and pushing you to do your best without being annoying or pushy. He works with you to make sure your goals are progressing and that you are doing your best. He also works hard at creating a family environment where there is no judgment and only kind words and great enthusiasm which only helps with the whole experience. read more

Fit Body challenges just about EVERY muscle in your body, the routines are INTENSE!!! Virgil is fantastic. Trust me, you will not leave here without soreness circulating through your body, but feels great. Virgil is motivating and always push's you to do your best. I highly recommend FIT BODY BOOT CAMP read more

My review is mostly for the owner/trainer of this gym. Virgil is an extremely dedicated, hands-on, creative, inspiring, and nurturing trainer. He corrals the room but takes the time to give individual feedback and positive affirmations throughout the workout. He is always "present," and always seems available for personal coaching. In other words, he helps build muscle and stamina on the gym floor, but he also is there to talk nutrition and lifestyle with anyone curious to learn. He is community-oriented, seems to see the big picture, and leads by example by following his own goals. I always left his workouts exhausted, but also feeling supported, "lifted up" (If that makes sense), and confident that I would return. Most specifically, my legs were always the most sore....haha. Ouch. read more

Just have to say how awesome this place really is. I've been a gym rat for as long as I can remember and always looking for a fun way to get fit. When my previous boot camp got old and stale I quit and did stuff on my own again. Then one of my friends kept posting all these great things about the fit body in her area so I decided to see if there was one in my neck of the woods. Lucky me there was so I got in to check it out and I'm so glad I did. The first workout almost did me in but it was and continues to be one of the most positive bootcamp experiences I've had. Virgil and Renee make everyone feel like family and are always available to help in anyway. They make sure they say hello and goodbye to each person that comes in and makes time to talk and turn their place into everyone's place. I'm super happy with my results. Since I started in July I've lost 3.2% bf and dropped my bmi by 1.3% and lost 3 lbs. I definitely don't starve myself and actually could do a better job with my diet. I see and feel the results. My goal was to gain muscle and drop fat and with hard work, great training, and a fun/positive environment I'm achieving my goals each month. My goal now is to just keep continuing on. Thanks for all the encouragement, support and creative workouts. I love to workout and always have since I was a kid. I've had lots of coaches and coaching over the years and yours is right at the top. Thanks CFBBC! #unstoppable read more

This is the place you need to be if you want to get in shape! If you commit and go regularly - there is no way you won't get fit. The workouts are high intensity and high reward. I have been going ~3x per week for over a year, but I still recall the natural high I felt after the first workout. The workouts challenge your whole body whether you are just beginning or have been going for some time. Virgil, the owner, is high energy and super supportive; the ~40 minute workouts go by quickly and they are at convenient times before and after work hours. It's a small space but you get big results! read more
