I decided to come back to Faster Fitness after a couple of years of being away, because I loved the facility and trusted the trainers. I'm now a few months in, and Ivan has helped me become more comfortable in the gym, again, and has encouraged me to push myself in every session. In this stage in my life, it's not about needing to lose weight; it's about feeling good and seeing the progress in my strength, which I can now see every week. read more

I knew nothing about weight lifting before i joined this gym and Ivan makes it so easy to progress. You just show up each morning and he has programs and workouts written for you and ensures you're pushing yourself each week in a safe and comfortable way. Ivan is very knowledgeable and truly understands how to cater to your personal goals. His semi-private weight training classes are super fun and enjoyable, and his gym is clean and has a wide variety of clients. Without a doubt, this is one of the best local personal training gyms in the area -- no other place compares when it comes to results, knowledge, and overall atmosphere. read more

I had been looking for a place to improve my strength training in order to improve my Jiu Jitsu. And this place definitely made me into a better and stronger opponent. Ivan is my coach and he pushes you to lift heavier in an effective & safe manner. The workouts never get boring because he changes them every month and he targets muscles you didn't even know you had. I've been winning competitions since I've started so if it works why change it. read more

Faster Fitness - Trainers Near Me - Fullerton, California

In 2023, I broke two bones in my foot and damaged several nerves and ligaments. I convinced myself to take just one week off from semi-private training, but the thought of doing nothing while my foot healed was unbearable. So, I texted Ivan to ask if he would still train me even with a cast and crutches. Without hesitation, he said yes. Not only did he build a program around my injury, but he also racked my weights for six months--without a single complaint. Ivan will do whatever is necessary to help you succeed, as long as you're ready to focus on yourself and have the drive to reach your goals. He understands that success looks different for each client, and he's not one of those coaches who shames you for hitting a diet roadblock or having "too much" fun on vacation. He enjoys life and believes it's too short not to make the most of it. For me, success meant staying active and continuing to work out the rest of my body while waiting for my foot to heal. Some months, my goal is to prepare for an athletic competition or cut weight. Other times, it's to break through a plateau and recharge my focus. Ivan is there for all of it--holding me accountable, celebrating my victories, and supporting me through the tough days read more

Faster Fitness is great! Ivan is a great coach. He is fun, motivating and has built such a great community. Definitely try this place out!

My home away from home! I used to workout here when Ivan first opened this gym and I was in the best shape of my life. 9 years later I ended up back in this gym and absolutely love it. I look forward to my semi private sessions every week. I love the programs and always feel so much better after my workout (with the exception of being sore haha) and the lay out of the gym is perfect. Ivan is always pushing us to grab that heavier weight but also pays attention to detail if you have any injury or if something doesn't feel/look right. 10/10 recommend read more

Faster Fitness - 3 month difference. Feeling so strong - Trainers Near Me - Fullerton, California

I absolutely love this gym it's private enough where you never feel awkward. What I like is the coaches and other members make it feel like you're meeting up with friends. I've been working out for the past 20 years so I would say I know what I'm doing but nothing is better than having someone there to hold you accountable to really meet your goals. The trainers here actually know their stuff they're not someone who just recently got their personal training certification and give some workouts you're working out with a purpose. They've done the research and know how to get you to your goals which also means the gym is always changing. I've been there for 2 renovations so for me, that means not only am I paying to better myself, but also better my equipment. Absolutely love this gym. Thank you, Ivan read more

Faster Fitness - Trainers Near Me - Fullerton, California

I have been with faster fitness for almost 5 years and it's been life changing for me. All the coaches are not only amazing people, they are constantly challenging you, constantly changing things up. They all are incredibly knowledgeable for all levels, helping us grow together and individually. After all these years there is not one day that I don't feel challenged in one way or another. I've learned so much from faster fitness that will stay with me forever. I recommend faster fitness to everyone, you will be so happy! It's truly like family when you walk in there. And it will take your fitness journey, where ever it may be, to the next level! Thank you Ivan for creating a wonderful place for us to be better versions of ourselves! read more

This is loooong overdue. Been going to FF now for more than 10 years off and on (more off than on) and attending semi private trainings. The semi private workouts have been so pivotal in my progress as there's more time to work on form, get more feedback from my coach, and really work on fitness goals. The owner (Ivan) is approachable, funny, and supportive in whatever your goals are. He has helped me stay focused on the long term aspect of fitness. All of the coaches there are warm and just as approachable as Ivan. They've created community where you feel supported and welcomed. I wasn't familiar with the semi private set-up before I started here so expect to be working out with other people but everyone goes at their own pace, their own weight, and it can be tailored to your needs depending on your own situation (for me it was changing the workouts when pregnant and modifying some when I came back). Just GO and you will not regret it. read more

I've been coming to Faster Fitness for many years. When you walk through the doors, you are greeted with a warm hello from your trainers. I take the group classes. They are 45 minutes long. They are filled with other members that are like family. Everyone in there is working hard for their own goal and encouraging the people next to them to help reach theirs. Ivan the owner has helped myself and several others with raising money for a charity close to my heart, "Alzheimer's!" I've also had the opportunity of competing in an Epic Race with my Faster Fitness Family. When I walk out of the gym, I feel confident and accomplished. If you're looking for a gym, I highly recommend you give Faster Fitness a try. You won't be sorry! read more

This review is long overdo! Faster Fitness it a true gem! I've been training there for over 8 years. Ivan and his team are genuine and positive individuals. I've done it all: the classes, one on one personal training and semi private groups. I started at Faster Fitness to get in shape for my wedding. And haven't looked back. I've continued my fitness journey here through two pregnancies, a pandemic and an aging body. That's what's so great about Faster Fitness, it's not something you grow out of and it doesn't matter what stage you are at starting out. Ivan and his team are accommodating with modifying any exercise for you. But also know when to push you. They truly care about you. The gym has evolved over the 8 years I've been here, always in a way to benefits its members. And same with the exercises. I always feel like I'm learning and constantly amazed by how strong I have become. I can't recommend Faster Fitness enough! read more

So glad I stumbled upon this pLace when they had a Facebook special ad 3 years ago! My daughter and I have been enjoying being part of thiS gym community. The group workouts are fun, the semi private and private training are great too if you have a specific fitness goal in mind. We train privately and semi privately with Frankie but all the coaches are just as amazing. The best part of my experience here is I made some great friends! This is a community that supports each other and rallies around each other which is something you will never get at a big box gym. If you're ready to crush some fitness goals, I highly recommend checking this place. read more

I love Faster Fitness and Ivan. Ivan cares about the success of his members. He is Willingboro work with you. Gives modifications as needed. Always there with extra encouragement to help you push through that last set. Works with student athletes as well. Check out this gym!!!! read more

Faster Fitness is a great gym! Want an awesome workout at a fun place? Try out Faster Fitness!

Faster Fitness is great! I've been going here for years and really feels like a family. Everyone is so nice and welcoming. Ivan and the other coaches really care about you and your overall fitness journey. read more

Let's just say this! Great trainers are hard to find!!! Not only are the trainers and the owner great at what they do, but they genuinely care about your fitness and health. Ivan the owner is open minded and understands that time is precious! His style of training always makes you feel like you have accomplished something every time. Frankie: his knowledge of nutrition and fitness is not like your typical trainer. He believes in eating real food and and eating for the way you train. He understands that food is fuel and putting the right gas in your tank is the #1 Tracy: I have not personally trained with her but she is very personable and always has a smile on her face. I can tell her clients love to work with her. All in All the have the right ingredients to health and fitness. read more

I have commitment phobia of the workout kind. But I'm still here so that should tell you something about this gym. 40 minutes of kick-your-hiney-workout goes by fast, especially when you're with a bunch of people who are second to none when it comes to support. I'm not just referring to Ivan, Frankie, and the team, but also the rest of the folks that I've come to know. You would think that at some point, Ivan would recycle his workout routines. But he doesn't. I don't think I've had the same workout since I started which is probably why, after nearly a year, I'm still sore after most workouts. It really hurts so good! As always, Ivan holds me accountable. Every dang day. Even the days when I just want brownie points for trying to show up. And on those days, I am always glad that I not only showed up but went through with it. Because as Yoda would say, "Do or do not. There is NO TRY." Or as Ivan would say, "Focus! Focus! Focus!" (After watching American Pie, I can't help but to silently laugh and think of Granny whenever I hear him yell out these words.) read more

I have been a member of Faster Fitness for the past four years. When I began my journey I was a runner and did cardio classes. I had never used free weights and found them to be very intimidating. But under the guidance of Ivan, Frankie, and Tracy I have now become comfortable with lifting and find it to be a challenge that is rewarding and stress relieving. I have been taking semi-privates with Frankie for over a year now. He listens to my concerns in regards to the way my body feels and tailors workouts according. It is a very individualized program. Each workout challenges me and when I am done I always feel like I have accomplished something. read more

I've only been coming to the group classes for a couple weeks but I really love it. The energy and music is great, and the trainers are super nice. I'm the type of person who prefers to work out in a class setting led by someone telling us what to do. The workouts are different every day, and we use all sorts of equipment that I never knew how to use or never seen before attending these classes. I use ClassPass and they don't pressure you into purchasing their own packages which I really appreciate. Gym sales tactics are so annoying. I will continue to come because I believe (I hope) I will see results if I put in the work, stay consistent with attendance, and be mindful about my consumption. read more

After working out at Orangetheory for about 4 years, I hit a plateau and wanted to switch gears into something more customized for my personal fitness and overall wellness goals. I started semi-private training with Frankie and so far I'm already seeing my body starting to change, without feeling like I'm killing myself. The workouts are customized just for me and what my goals are, not to mention that the ambience is fun and light - because typically there are others working out at the same time and the other trainers there are also great. So if you're looking for more personalized attention but would rather not jump straight into private one-on-one sessions, this is the right choice for you! Not to mention you will never be subject to a creepy trainer because I assure you, these guys are all PROS read more

I've always had a hard time sticking to anything for more than a year, so the fact that I've been at Faster Fitness for 3 years now is really saying something. I do private/semi-private training the majority of the time, and my program is designed specifically for my needs. I've been able to accomplish things and hit goals I never in a million years thought I'd reach. I train with Frankie, but all of the coaches are amazing. They've really worked to create an environment that's encouraging and welcoming for everyone who walks through the doors, which is hard to find elsewhere. The friends I've made here have become my second family. And honestly, it's pretty cool to be part of a group of people who just lift heavy things on a daily basis lol. Can't recommend Faster Fitness enough! read more

I have been coming to this gym for about 2 years ago and I LOVE this place. The community is amazing here, everybody here is so nice and so supportive. You walk into the place and all you see is smiles everywhere especially from the coaches. What I love is that they are not only your coaches but they become family to you. I signed up my 11 year old daughter and she enjoys coming here very much. I highly recommend this gym if you want to become the best version of yourself. read more

I absolutely LOVE Faster Fitness! Not only are the coaches and workouts AMAZING, but the "family like" feel is hard to find at any other gym location. I have been a member for 5 years and have learned so much about my health and fitness! read more

Faster Fitness is top notch. I've been with the gym on and off for almost 5 years. The trainers are amazing, inspirational, energetic, and knowledgeable. The workouts are focus, organized, fun, and challenging no matter what your fitness level might be. Also the Faster Fitness family is second to none. If you're looking for a place with kind, welcoming, motivational, members. This is the spot. If you're local to the north Orange County area and looking for a new gym. You have no reason not to come out, get your sweat on, and see how great this place really is. read more

I love my gym. I have been a part of the Faster Fitness family for over four years. The trainers are amazing. Each one brings an incredible and innovative energy to the large classes as well as the semis. My success, both physically and emotionally, matters to them. On occasion, they hold seminars that help improve not just my physical health but also my mental focus. I love that they know me so well and can read my moods. It is rare that I don't arrive to the workout with a smile on my face. read more

I've never stuck with a gym or exercise program for longer than a year. But I started at Faster Fitness during one of their promotions and was instantly hooked. That was 4 years ago. Since then I have joined semi private sessions with Frankie and love how strong I feel! He creates regimens personalized to each of his clients to get them their specific results. I crave the workouts and even more so I crave the vibe and energy these coaches have created. Each coach genuinely cares about each member and treats everyone like family. Community is important and they are constantly trying to grow that sense of community through charity events, fund raisers, organized events, and fun challenges. I recommend Faster Fitness 100%!! read more

I've been going to faster fitness for the past three years and I absolutely love it. The trainers there are seriously dope. Each trainer bring massive energy to each workout which really helps me get through the workout especially if I am having a sluggish day. I do semi private training with Frankie and I can honestly that I'm in the best shape, and I'm the strongest I've been. Everything from the community to the mind set is on point. Highly recommend. read more

Do yourself a favor and stop making excuses of why you shouldn't start training with the faster family. I had taken a little over a year off from training & was extremely nervous about struggling to get my groove back! From the minute I stepped foot into the gym it has been AMAZING! Ivan is so understanding and has allowed me to take it at my own pace, of course with a lot of encouragement to push beyond what I think I'm capable of- because let's face it we always sell ourselves short! I love the vibe, the people, the trainers, the programming. The put the excitement in going back to the gym! read more

I absolutely love this gym! If you are looking for something different, a workout that challenges you, isn't repetitive and a gym where you actually feel welcome and aren't surrounded by socializing meat heads...then you have got to try this place! Ivan and Frankie know their stuff and know how to make you sweat! You are constantly challenged in your workouts and they help to set personal long term and monthly goals! The ever changing push keeps your workout from getting stale and repetitive. Oh and no lame workout music while you sweat it out! While the music gets changed up on a daily basis, it always helps to pump you up and get you going! If your reading this and thinking about a new gym...you wont regret it...you'll be hooked! I promise!! read more

If you are new and looking to start exercising or just get back into it after taking months, years etc. off, Faster Fitness is the place for you. When you walk in its NOT like going to "Globo Gym" where you get that "I'm better then you" vibe from the person working out across the way. At Faster Fitness both Ivan and Frankie have created a family environment where everyone knows your name. Everyone is very positive and always encouraging the person next to them while working out. Faster Fitness offers group and individual training to meet your specific needs. Not only do Ivan and Frankie consistently push their clients but they also go above and beyond most other training facilities by offering monthly seminars on Saturday after the early am workout. They bring in guest speakers to cover a variety of topics. I will be honest, this place changed my life in the way I look at the fitness field. These guys are game changers and if you are reading this and have not visited I suggest you give them a call or stop by to see why myself and others are so high on Faster Fitness. read more

You feel like one of the Faster Fitness "family" members as soon as you walk through the door. I was looking for a community gym close to home that would draw me out of my shell and where I could find like-minded peeps on the same journey to health. Two years later, I've competed in 3 Epic Series challenges, 1 Muddy Dash, started playing over 50s soccer, and am killin' #75Hard. The coaches/trainers here are exceptional and are the best cheerleaders you'll find. Classes are excellent and semi-privates will get in the best shape of your life. Proud member since Dec 2017. read more

Faster Fitness - Awesome coach/trainer/nutritionist at Faster Fitness (and me) - Trainers Near Me - Fullerton, California

I've been going to Faster Fitness for almost 3 years. I absolutely love it! Not only do you get a great workout, but the trainers and the members are super friendly and have become like a family to me, my fitfam. I felt very comfortable and welcomed from first day I started. There are absolutely no clicks or people judging. I take the classes and do semi private training. It's never the same thing over and over, to where your body gets used to the workout or you just get bored. All the trainers are super knowledgeable, friendly and always encouraging. In addition, the trainers are not only there for your workouts, but they're also very knowledgeable in nutrition and always a positive vibe. I have become more tone, stronger and more confident with Faster Fitness...I promise you won't be disappointed read more

I have been training with Faster Fitness for over 2 years now. I train with Frankie twice a week for heavy lifting and nutritional guidance, and I attend the group classes 2-3 times a week. The coaches are great, the workouts push you and burn a lot of calories, but the community of gym goers is what really kept me coming back. Some gyms people do their own thing, but this gym has everyone cheering for one another, pushing each other to improve, and supporting each other every step along the way. As a part of this community, I have completed two Spartan Sprints and two EPIC Obstacle Course Races, laughing and progressing with my fellow gym members by my side. Cannot recommend enough! read more

Faster Fitness has been a wonderful place for me. My cousin referred me and I started January 22, 2018. I have lost 6% body fat and 20 pounds. I never thought it was possible. The trainers are incredible. They all know who you are and go out of their way to make you feel good about yourself. I am so happy that I finally found a place where I am happy and losing weight!! read more

First and foremost, Faster Fitness is a family. Ivan makes that clear very early on to all of us. And he backs it up with support and encouragement through your entire journey. As well as providing some tough love along the way, when needed. I first started Faster just over a year ago through a Living Social deal and have been hooked ever since. The workouts are ever changing, always challenging and extremely rewarding. There is no greater feeling than crushing the day's challenge that, 45 minutes earlier, seemed impossible. This is no "Meat Market" gym. Ivan and Frankie truly care about everyone. We range from young, old, out of shape, in shape....doesn't matter. Faster Fitness is the place to be if you strive to become 1% better every day! Check them out....... read more

Working out has never come easy for me and I've never found the satisfaction and positive feelings that a lot of people seem to feel when they work out. This is the first time ever joining any sort of fitness program for me. Two weeks in and it's changed my life. Nothing about it is easy. It takes a lot of determination and hard work. You're sore and tired after every work out. But you're surrounded by people who care and want to help you make the best version of yourself possible. I've had every reason to "want" to work out: flat stomach, lose weight, feel healthier, look toned etc. I've also had every reason "not" to want to work out: money, too many people, don't want to sweat and/or be sore, don't know how to work out, find it boring, don't see results fast enough etc. I'm on my second week. I've gained 4 lbs of muscle in my first week. (Never seen results that fast). I signed up for a month, I don't know how I will feel or look by the end of it. I can't tell you if I will ever LOVE working out. But I will say, I've never been happier with myself, I've never been more proud of myself and I've never been so determined to make others proud of me. Nothing but positive vibes. Great people (all ages, sizes, colors). They say they are one big family and that's exactly what we are. So thank you faster fitness. See you Thursday! read more

Loved this gym for the last 5 years! It's become like a second home. If you're looking for awesome coaches and workouts that will push you into becoming a better you, sign up!! read more

Faster Fitness has been an integral part of my life. I have been going to this gym for 6 years. I started with the group sessions which are great (and still a part of my fitness week,) but within 2 years I jumped into personal training with Frankie G. Frankie has been amazing! He's helped me hone in on the correct movements for the workouts, so that I don't injure myself and brings a fantastic sense of energy and humor to the hour of training. His knowledge of nutrition is an added benefit. He shares personal meal planning and supplement advice, as well as hosting nutrition talks on the weekends at the gym. What I love the most is his infectious desire to educate himself. You could not ask for a more well rounded trainer to help you get fit and looking your best! Side note: I am not always the easiest to train, I may mouth off too much but Frankie and quite honestly the rest of the gym members entertain my bitching and offer a huge sense of community. I cannot say enough good things about this gym, the members and all of the trainers. Ivan, Tracey and Sam are all fantastic, and if you are looking for a family based gym where "everyone knows your name" (or nickname) this is your home. Come check it out and say hi, it won't take long to figure out who I am! read more

SHADY SHADY SHADY!!! If I could review this as ZERO stars, I definitely would. I saw an advertisement on Facebook from this gym stating 6 week bootcamp for free in return for the weightloss journey and pictures for ONLY 30 people. Of course, they had mass amounts of people respond, so they held an orientation. There were probably about 75-100 people crammed into the orientation. The offer was a complete sham. A bait and switch. First of all, they said nothing about 30 people maximum. And their idea of "free" is YOU pay for it, and IF you lose the weight, you get your money back. Not only that, but whoever was giving the presentation, was stating that it was $400 - even though someone else corrected him (multiple times) that it was $349. He didn't seem to care that he was giving false information. AND when a potential client asked what diet they taught there as part of the boot camp, he copped an attitude and basically shunned her "oh, someone must read a lot." Wow, horrible away to talk to POTENTIAL CLIENTS. Needless to say she walked out. I wasn't far behind her. Another thing I found shady was that they offered the gym to the boot camp members as part of the 6 week package for the month of December. Well, if you start working out a month prior to the boot camp (where if you don't lose 20lbs, you lose your money), you'll make it harder on yourself -- if not impossible -- to lose the 20lbs. I felt like they were offering it SPECIFICALLY to make sure the people who signed up didn't lose the weight. I would recommend people to stay FAR away from this gym. read more

I've been coming here for over a year and a half and it's been such a great experience. I have never liked to work out and have never stayed at gym consistently for more than a few months. But this place is different- it's such a positive atmosphere. Everyone is super friendly and I have come to actually enjoy working out. Frankie is a wealth of knowledge for all things nutrition and has been immensely helpful. I have lost 40lbs since coming here and I feel confident I have the tools to keep it off. Every single coach is friendly and approachable, it feels like one big family. I can't recommend Faster Fitness enough read more
