I've always struggled on the track of my personal fitness journey, but this is the first gym where…read moreI wake up excited to go in and train. "Define your strong" is not just a slogan - the trainers at Bodies by Burgoon really work with everyone to help them reach whatever goals they want to achieve. The group training format is a great way to surround yourself with a supportive group of peers who are all ready to cheer you on. It also provides an accessible alternative to a one-on-one approach without sacrificing the tailoring in your program. There is no pressure or expectations related to your looks - this place is all about helping you feel confident and finding strength in the ways that matter to you. It is clear that Jason is passionate about helping people be their best selves. He approaches every session with a team mindset and makes it clear that you're not on this journey alone. His warm enthusiasm creates a really inviting atmosphere in the gym, and he makes it a point to get to know every client on a personal level. On top of this, Jason has a wealth of knowledge and experience, and is prepared to work with you to meet you wherever you're at in your journey. He's also not afraid push you to reach new heights and will remind you of your achievements when you're feeling the struggle. This truly is a gym for everyone from any fitness background.

You're not going to find anyone else that matches his knowledge, passion, and genuine love and kindness that he shows all his clients. He has an astonishing ability to remember each and every clients individual needs to the point he seems to know more about your body than you do some days. Jason has curated a special place that anyone, regardless of skill or experience level, are welcome and celebrated. He makes it a high priority to keep it this way, ensure gym goers never have to worry about being judged or bullied. Unlike traditional gyms, or even traditional gym group classes, you come in and work along with anywhere from 1-3 others to as many 6-7, but all focusing on your own individual workout. Jason seamlessly bounces around the gym space, directly and helping where he's needed. All this, and the rates are extremely affordable and generous. Jason treats this clients as people first and profit second, which is something I've never experienced elsewhere. Cannot recommend Jason enough, he and his gym are the gold standard!

I have been training with Lenora for a couple of months now and feel like the luckiest person in…read morethe world to have found her. I did a ton of research when l started looking for a personal trainer and interviewed several trainers in person. While they were all great in their own right, Lenora stood out among the rest. She has a solid education backing her training up and truly approaches it in a holistic way, which was exactly what I was looking for. So far she has helped me greatly! We are working through some postural issues I have and she is really great during every session making sure we are doing the right exercises to help strengthen and balance my body and changing something if it isn't working. Lenora really knows her stuff. She also helps me out nutritionally and is very educated in this as well. She makes workouts fun, but also kicks your a$$. She is very good at helping you learn to push yourself and cheering you on the whole way. She finds out what really motivates you and utilizes that in your sessions. She's firm, yet gentle and nurturing at the same time. Basically, she is amazing. She is changing my body, mind and spirit....my whole life! I will be continuing to work with her for a while. She is also guiding me through training for a 1/2 marathon. I have never been a runner, but with her help, I am becoming one...at age 34! I have also lost weight, toned up, gained confidence, etc. I HIGHLY recommend Lenora of Holistic Personal Training. You will not be sorry!

I am writing to strongly endorse my personal trainer, Lenora Lemke. I met Lenora when I was…read moredetermined to establish a consistent exercise routine and healthy lifestyle. She has helped me achieve those goals and MUCH MORE. She used her training as a therapist to guide me through a time when I was in a toxic unsafe work environment and trying to keep depression at bay. She used her body understanding to help me get my body structurally aligned. She used her training in nutrition to assess my specific needs and advise me. I could text her a nutrition question and know her answers were based on the latest research! On top of all her technical skills, she is one of the kindest, high integrity people I know. Anyone would benefit from working with and knowing Lenora. Although she has moved across the country, I still have a weekly check in with Lenora that helps me to keep on track. Her advice is always spot on!

I had never done an Orangetheory class before- I had never even been inside of one. (I thought the glass was orange, but when I got the studio tour, I realized the glass was clear, but all of the lights inside are orange). They loaned me a HR monitor and made sure I was comfortable on the rower and the treadmill before the class started. We didn't quite need the 30 minute pre-session block, but I can see how people with more questions might have used close to the entire thing. I got a good workout: I started on the rower, then moved to weights, then ended on the treadmill. The instructor was awesome, and I definitely got a good workout (the "orange zone" for which the business is named). I wish the weights section had been a little longer, but I was told they have different classes that focus on different sections instead of squeezing all 3 into an hour if you are looking for something more focused. The hardest part of the class for me was learning to use all of the buttons. Each machine syncs to your heartrate monitor, and a lot of the efforts are timed and designed to be at particular difficulties. By the end of class, I had gotten the hang of it. The instructor reviewed my chart with me (every person has one with your workout metrics, like average heart rate, calories, and time spent in each heart rate zone). They also send an email summary of the information, so you don't have to write anything down. I would totally go to another class, but I don't think I could use it as my only gym membership (I need at least a few heavy weights days). The only downside is the high cost, and the fact that you have to go when a class is in session. They have class packages you can buy, and even a membership level that rounds out to about $15/class, so that's not bad if you can manage to go once a week. I would definitely recommend giving it a try, no matter what your level of fitness! (the first class is free!)

Decided to take a class at OTF Roseville earlier this week because it's the closest studio to my…read morework and close to the place I needed to be for a meeting that night.

First I'd like to note the photos uploaded by the business owner are in fact not what this location…read morelooks like, so starting off a bit misleading. From the outside this location looks huge, like it could be 2 stories. While driving by to attend an event nearby I decided to stop in just to check it out. They have a large parking lot which is super convenient in this area. When we walked in, it seemed like they were having a staff meeting right up front as there were 4-5 employees up at the desk. I told them I was a black card member but just wanted a tour of the location. Half of the staff were like okay, we can do that but one insisted I check in. I had to scan my card about 3 times before it took, not sure what the issue was. 2 staff offered to give the tour - they were nice but as I said before I'm already a PF member and have been on/off for over 10yrs at various locations (as I move around a bit). I generally like the updated newer PF locations w/ the newer machines, the ones that count your reps & even the steppers and they don't have the 30 min workout separated areas but it's kind of mixed in with the other machines. This location has less cardio machines and a lot more weight training. The Spa area is nice. The staff weren't really educated much on the equipment but again it's kind of the same at every location so I already knew. This location is nice, but a bit more cramped feeling than others which makes it feel smaller inside.

I then called back and they allowed the phone to ring multiple times before picking up and hanging up again. When I called back a third time after multiple rings an employee by the name of Shaquita (or that's what she said her name was) answered and said there's no manager and she didn't know when one would be available. I asked for the name of the manager multiple times and was finally given the name Rashae only to then be given the name Tarell by the end of the conversation. COMPLETELY UNPROFESSIONAL ALL THE WAY AROUND AND ONE OF THE REASON I AM CANCELING MEMBERSHIP AND REFUSING TO RETURN TO THIS LOCATION!!! #badbusiness

Had a great time at this locally-owned small business!…read more Once I found it (look for a glowing blue barbell sign in the ground-floor windows, then go down the stairs) I entered a bright and cheerful space, full of nice equipment, racks, weights and friendly people. Coach Alex let me drop into one of the weekday evening group classes (thank you!), and I was immediately welcomed by the class regulars. I loved the inclusive space, great music and good vibes. The group class started with some mobility, then 5 minutes of abs, then several supersets of strength and cardio-based work, followed by a finisher. Absolute Strength does primarily personal and semi-private training, but that they offer several group classes in addition is wonderful. If you sign up for a personal training package, you can also pay a little extra to get access to open gym. I wasn't looking for just personal training and wanted something open every day of the week, (plus it was a little pricy for me), but I would definitely recommend this gym!
