My parents started working with Sophie in January 2024. My brother and I recognized that we needed…read morea professional to work with our aging parents because they really would not listen to us, even though we are both adult professionals with families of our own. (If you know, you know.) Our mom needed help to manage her pre-diabetes condition and our dad needed support to understand proper nutrition and balance. Both needed to exercise more regularly yet carefully since they are both in their 80s. The past year has been a journey for my parents...accepting new ideas, establishing different eating and exercise patterns and modifying lifelong habits. We are super proud of them for what they have been able to accomplish because it has not been easy to modify those lifelong ideas, habits and patterns. But they are doing it. None of their health progress could have happened without Sophie's patient and gentle guidance. She speaks English and Mandarin with them and understands our culture, diet and our parents' generation. She respects them but also challenges them. And they listen to her! My parents work with Sophie on being mindful of their food choices, as well as mobility and strength training. She gives my parents the support and inspiration to keep moving and motivation to take care of themselves physically and mentally. Sophie is a gift. We are very grateful to her and how she has impacted our parents' lives in such a positive way.

She is conversational and can talk about almost anything. One conversation, we ended up talking about our feet - and how to cope with bunions. She gave topnotch advice about what type of shoes, sneakers to wear, and about how to stretch your toes to give each toe space to move, and the importance of practicing being barefoot at home. She has had a lot of personal experiences with diets, health, and general well-being, and has a healthy attitude in questioning established norms that actually do not help, but hinder optimal health. She is as knowledgable as she is enjoyable to work with!

I have a long history with working out and have worked with 5 or 6 other trainers in the past and my experience with Ricky tops them all! My workouts with him were challenging but right on cue with my body and it's capabilities. I received a workout plan for when I wasn't training with him, we recorded progress in the gym, and did monthly body measurements which was probably the most motivating thing! He's got an amazing set up with a tread, ski rower, assault bike, squat rack, cables, dumbbells.. you get the point. It's a whole ass gym! 10/10 recommend investing in yourself and signing up with Ricky! You won't regret it!

I was skeptical in the beginning because the reviews looked too good to be true, but I'm now so…read morehappy I went forward with it--this program has surpassed all my expectations! Working with Bruno through the '7 Elements of Balance' has been a life-changing experience and a total transformation. In just 13 weeks, I lost 26.3 lbs and saw my BMI drop from 33.4 down to 28.7 (moving from Obese Class 1 to Overweight). While the numbers speak for themselves--including losing 4 inches off my waist--the lifestyle habits are what I value most. I've become a consistent morning runner and I actually enjoy it! I'm much more mindful and aware of what I'm eating, my water intake has improved, and for the first time, I find myself looking forward to eating vegetables. Bruno is a one-of-a-kind coach who works with you one-on-one. He is incredibly flexible, understanding, and encouraging. You can tell he truly loves what he does and cares about his clients looking and being at their best--spiritually, physically, and in all the good things. If you want a coach to help you reach your peak self, Bruno is the person to see!

Looking forward to loosing a few more pounds with my new and improved outlook on nutrition!

After using Fresh Start for several months now (I think since June?) since discovering them on…read moreYelp, I can confidently say that I LOVE this meal prep service. Tiffany (the chef) is so reliable and flexible, and the turnaround time is so impressive (no waiting until a certain day of the week to guarantee delivery, unlike other meal prep services). She labels each meal with the name of the dish and calorie count and cooks it all from scratch, customized to your needs - and I've noticed that they keep in the refrigerator for a lot longer than food from other places because of this! I'm a health nut who has one of these meals every time I'm too tired/lazy to cook, and knowing that the food is healthy and made by a local small business is SO much better than getting takeout from Subway or other "healthy" fast food restaurants. Plus, I've never gotten a meal I didn't like. I especially love that I can mix and match plant-based vegan meals with healthy seafood and meat options. Some of my absolute favorite meals are the Cajun shrimp and sausage when I want meat, and the Thai Green Curry when I want something plant-based. All of Tiffany's omelets are also SO FREAKING GOOD. (Pictured is the eggplant parm I got today!)

I know I wouldn't stay accountable on my own--he's the reason I've been able to stay consistent. His approach really resonates with me: it's motivating without being overwhelming, and he knows exactly when to push and when to adjust. Over time, I've seen clear results, especially in my strength. I'm noticeably stronger and more confident in my workouts than I've ever been. Every session feels purposeful, and I always leave feeling like I've made progress. If you're looking for a trainer who is knowledgeable, motivating, and truly committed to your long-term success, I highly recommend him!

He encourages me to listen to my body... if I'm injured we stretch and take it light, if I'm trying to get summer shirt off ready we go hard.

He's also a great guy and fun to talk to every morning - so I get enjoyable positive conversation in addition to training. If you are trying to get it right and get it tight do yourself a favor and hit up Ron asap.

UPDATE - AUGUST 2025…read more Over four years and 500+ sessions later, I can say with confidence: Reason Fitness is still the last stop on the road to better health and real results. I've dropped into many CF gyms while traveling, and it's always a relief--and a joy--to come back to Reason. The coaching here is next level. (Kara, Luke, Ed, Lauren to name a few...) Since my original review, these standout coaches helped transform my son into a serious athlete and, ultimately, a United States Air Force Academy appointee. Special shoutout to Coach Ed, who played a key role in getting him physically prepped for the intense USAFA requirements. I'm proudly part of the 5:30 AM crew (the finest hour, in my humble opinion). But no matter when you go, the community is welcoming, down-to-earth, and fun to work out with. One of Reason's true strengths is their ability to attract people who are ready to do the work--and to gently filter out those who aren't quite there yet. They also have a gift for hiring coaches who are not only highly skilled but also genuinely enjoyable to be around. Reason works with you, 1-on-1, to map out a plan that fits your goals--whether that's strength, weight loss, mobility, or just feeling better in your skin. You'll find all shapes, sizes, and fitness levels here. This is not a mirror-lined vanity factory. No egos. No robots. Just people doing the work. If you're serious about making a change--and want a place that will meet you where you are but won't let you stay there--Reason is it.
