I'm so glad I stick with the training program. I'm happy with the results I'm seeing. My trainers have helped me transform my body - both physical and mental health. Victoria and Pedro both make sure I get the support I need. The training program gets high marks from me! read more

Pros: -6 Hammer Strength power racks with bumper plates -Friendly staff Cons: -It gets extremely crowded to the point where lines form at the machines, ruining your workout, yet they do not increase their prices to accommodate what the facility can handle. I assume that prices need to be about doubled to get the clientele down to what the facility can handle. -They do not fix or replace machines as needed. They have two smith machines, and one of them sticks to the point where you can't use it for most exercises, so everyone waits in line for the only working smith machine while the other one stays empty. A few of the other machines have the grip coming off which exposes a sticky glue substance which gets on your hands as soon as you start the exercise -They do not bolt the equipment down (including the power racks and benches) so it gets crooked which throws off your lift -They do not provide enough dumbbells for the classes. I do not go to the classes myself, however, when a weight class is about to start, multiple people (around 5-10) will take all of the dumbbells ranging from 5lbs-25lbs from the main gym leaving the gym without those dumbbells for the duration of that class (about an hour) read more

Good and clean space, very open, got the vip membership, can't wait to see other gyms as well

This gym is honestly just fine. There's not many gyms in Livermore (there's only this one, 24H, and Anytime Fitness). You kind of get what you pay for. I've never had any negative interactions with the patrons here - definitely a high volume of high schoolers that come in and out of the space. Staff are fine too, they say hi when you come in and bye when you come out. The bathrooms are definitely gross and outdated, and sometimes there's not enough wipes around, but overall it's decent. I ended up deciding to cancel my membership as they installed new blue lights, which are pretty jarring for my eyes. read more

Gym used to be a good, solid gym. 4 stars. With no reason or customer input, they decided to change from perfect, soft, filtered light, to piercing, stark, burning bright blue and white light. It gives me a headache and makes me nauseous. But hey, it looks cool on instagram? Nothing says health and wellness like burning my retinas. Also, lovely business ethics trading drinks for 5 star reviews. read more

This gym was good, until they installed the neon blue lights! Nothing says healthy like blue rays beaming into your eyeballs! Seriously, this is so bad for your health. I pay my membership upfront for the year and stopped going once the lights went up. I will NOT be renewing my membership! read more

Fitness 19 - A lot of nice equipment to use and weights - Gyms Near Me - Livermore, California

Paid off what I owed when I cancelled my membership yet they still sent me to a debt collector over 20 dollars kind of a shitty business practice honestly plus the equipment really isn't all that great. To add on to this I was told everything had been paid off when I cancelled my membership. read more

You guys DESPERATELY need blinds/shades in the entire front of the gym where the front desk is and the bikes/treadmills are. The sun is so brutal in the morning hours, I have to turn my machine around. It's blinding. You have shades in the back area where the classes are, why not continue those throughout? It makes working out miserable read more

The company is remodeling the weight room area where squat racks cable machines and dumbbells are located. unfortunately this area has been closed off for weeks now and there is not enough equipment available and this company decided to change the lighting to purple and white it looks awful. gives me a headache read more

This place would be great if it was clean. The women's bathroom is disgusting and unhygienic. The white stains and the blood stain on the doors have been there for at least 2 months. Please clean for users. read more

I came in today on a guest pass. Was really impressed with the customer service, amount of equipment & cleanliness. Everyone working out was friendly & it was a "good" busy. Nice energy but not crowded. I'd definitely recommend this location! read more

Good enough to work out. Equipment works, with some wear as expected. Workers aren't rude but not nice either, they will try to get you to spend more than you need to. Look online for memberships, it's better than in person. Don't pay more for nothing like I did. read more

Great gym Great customer support and super helpful staff. Great variety of equipment Love the boxing bag read more

I've been going here for over a decade, this gym does the bare minimum job with the most basic equipment and has the most consistently low level of customer service I ever experienced , genuinely. It's always crowded except from 9:30pm-11pm, and don't you dare stay in the gym when the clock turns to 11:01. The employees have only become more miserable and rude over the years. The majority have never been great, one of the ones I thought was the nicest was fired for taking pics of women in the tanning bed a few years back, but you can really tell they don't even make enough to pretend to be happy now. They enforce the rules on members and then proceed to break the same rules right in front of your face. I've been thrown through hoops and loops ever since fitness 19 rebranded to vim+vigor and after 3 months of returning to Livermore from Pleasanton I was randomly informed there's problems with my membership again. This company is just ran by clowns at the end of the day who can't even pay for water pressure strong enough to wash your hands with. You're paying the bare minimum, expect the bare minimum. Good luck on your fitness journey! read more

I had been going to Vanica class on Wednesday and Sundays. And very disappointed that you no longer have her teaching anymore. This was a great workout. She was the only class that had a very high impact class which a lot of us enjoyed. Not sure why you removed it. A lot of very disappointed members. Please bring her classes back. read more

I really like the classes at Fitness 19! They are a great way to get a whole body workout while having fun and meeting people :) I really wish they would bring back the Vancia Fitness. It is unique in offering dance and boot camp. It brought my fitness to a new level, I could see the results. Please bring back Vancia!! read more

The morning staff is amazing especially around noon . Always a warm welcome. Really helps with making me want to keep returning and pursuing the fitness journey. Also some of them are always down to spot me on bench press if I need it read more

This gym used to be decent but since the new remodel, I haven't been back and I'm paying for a membership to a place I don't go to anymore. The new lights are awful and triggers my migraines which makes for a very unpleasant workout. Going to the gym should make you feel good for the rest of the day, not terrible. After reading few of the recent reviews I'm not the only one experiencing this. If they don't change it soon I will be canceling read more

I used to feel like this gym was really solid, but the renovations with the new lighting has really downgraded my experience. The old lights were nice because they were a warm light with a filter over them, but the new lights are this super neon-cold blue combined with this bright hospital-like white. Every time I go to the gym I walk out feeling nauseous and with the beginnings of a migraine and I feel like I have to look at the ground while I work out. I really hope the gym considers changing the lights to a softer option or even to a warm-toned color (like red) with a filter. The gym is normally my happy place, and I'm sadly considering canceling my membership because I'm uncomfortable. read more

I've recently retired and needed a gym to help me get back to a healthy life. Been working out for a year now and have lost close to 20lbs. Good equipment and clean. Staff are friendly and nice to work with. I've made this my gym of choice and recently signed up for lifetime membership. Thanks Fitness 19 read more

I used to really enjoy this gym--great equipment, solid environment, and it always felt like a place to focus and recharge. But ever since the renovations started last week, it's been a different story. The newly installed blue ceiling lights might be intended for aesthetics, but they're honestly annoying. The kinda harsh, fluorescent glow is a bit intense--eye-straining to the point of giving me a headache every single visit. What was once a motivating space now feels more like a migraine trigger. I really hope they reconsider the lighting design, because it's made the experience noticeably worse. I am considering finding another gym. read more

I just wanted to say that I found the most amazing class here at Fitness 19/Livermore and is very disappointing to learn that is no longer offered, as much as I like Zumba, there is no classes like VANCIA at this location PLEASE Bring it back!!! Sincerely, Fitness 19 Member read more

As a longtime Fitness 19 customers, I was very disappointed that recently, the .5 size dumbbells were removed from the free weight area. These would include the 7.5, 12.5, 17.5 and 22.5 weights. There are many folks over 60 that utilized these weights on a regular basis and losing those weights definitely impacts their workout. I've spoken with several gym members who have expressed frustration that these weights have disappeared. It's also aggravating that these 1/2 weights have reappeared from time to time only to disappear again from some unknown reason. While I understand that these weights are not part of the 'new' dumbbell set that came a few months ago, they are important to a vital segment of this gym's customer base. Please bring the 1/2 size dumbbells back. I don't care where you store them. Your customer base would appreciate it! read more

I have been coming to this gym for the past two years and it has become like a second home to me. During the construction of this gym I used my scanner to go to the *former* fitness 19 in Pleasanton. Little did I know, without my knowledge, the pleasanton location completely transferred my membership to their new title and did not notify me. Not a single email or heads up whatsoever. I had been continuing to attend f19 in Livermore for months until I was informed last week that I was actually no longer a member. You can understand my anger and confusion, trying to cancel and re-join f19 Livermore. Thank you thank you THANK YOU!! To Jason and Justin for being so patient through my frustrations. They both helped me through this headache with kindness. They are gems! They also always greet me with a smile which you don't always find at gyms. read more

I have been going to Fitness 19 in Livermore for a few years now. Over the last 12 months I have been working with Tyler as my trainer for a few days a week. He has helped transform my body and teach me proper lifting and gym practices. I cannot be more thankful for the attention to detail and enjoyment that Tyler brings to my gym experience. The facility is not the largest and during business hours it can be difficult to get every piece of equipment you might want but most people are open to sharing equipment (you just need to ask) and the team is prompt to repair equipment that requires it. I highly recommend Fitness 19! read more

This review is directed to Manager Josh. Josh thank you for your hard work in getting my refund, I truly appreciate it. Executive management of this branch needs to let you run the entire business. read more

PLEASE please bring back Vancia on Wednesday nights. Class is challenging, but fun. Many calories burned! Many of us miss the class!

Canceled membership multiple times. Keeps charging my card on file. Management on duty rude about refunds or cancellation. Moved out of area about 1 hour away and cannot use membership. read more

It's a very good gym, they have all the equipment that is required in a gym and the price is very genuine. My wife and I am going to the gym since last 5 months. We are having a great experience so far. The staff is great, we had some problem with the billing, Milton and the Manager of the gym handled the issue very well. read more

This fitness 19 is amazing. It is always clean. Machines in working order and everyone is friendly!

this is nice gym the workers are good good area for working out everything is good I have never had any issues or experience anyone else having issues read more

If I could give a lower rating I would. The gym itself was great BUT trying to get out of the contract when we moved has been a nightmare. I sent the request via email as advised and several days later we received a request to submit our lease agreement to prove we had moved. We sent as requested and then several, several days later received another email that we need to include the signature portion of the lease. Sent as requested and never heard back. during this time, both my fiancée and I are getting charged monthly to both our accounts. I emailed every week and received no response. Finally, my fiancée went to his bank and put a stop payment on the charges. My bank would not accommodate that stop payment, so I continued to be charged monthly. This went on for an entire year - I'd email and no reply. When we got married last March, I closed my bank account and combined with my husbands. I was so relieved to not have to pay every month for something I wasn't using - the total of several hundred dollars lost. Here is the topper. I received a letter yesterday and they sent me to collection. I had no choice but to pay the balance due of $121.96 so it didn't affect our credit. I am going to notify the BBB and look into a small claim suit. I know this happens a lot and it's not okay!!!! read more

Canceling is a total nightmare! Called to end my membership, told to do it online. Online, they demand a 30-day notice. Now, the online system wants to slap me with the next annual fee. Easy to take money when signing up, but canceling? Total hoops, extra fees, and zero transparency. Beyond frustrating, and their customer service sucks. read more

I'd give this place 5 stars if I could, due to their size and offerings that other 19 locations don't have and the friendliness of the staff, but unfortunately, they have one major issue. There is a trainer named Jose, who can be easily recognized by the same oversized black sweater he wears every day and the signature scowl and glare behind his foggy glasses, in addition to being much older than the other workers there. Jose is very reluctant and slow to comply to member requests such as turning on the massage chairs. He also never has a good attitude towards most members, and is more than willing to trash talk members such as myself and my buddy Chandler D for no good reason. If you make a small honest mistake, such as accidentally forgetting to re-rack a single plate, he would chew you out and proceed to stare out you for the rest of your workout as long as you're in his field of view. When I asked a worker at the front desk about him, that worker was more than willing to throw him under the bus. He told me that Jose has more seniority as a trainer who has been there a while so he may have some leeway in terms of his negative behavior, but encouraged me to write Jose up or talk about him to his manager, Josh, since Jose has had numerous similar incidents in the past. Now I would totally understand if his behavior and negativity was a one or two-time thing, since bad days do happen, or if it was only directed at just me. However, if numerous other members besides me and Chandler are unhappy with him as well, in addition to his own co-worker being willing to point out that he has had "incidents" with others in the past and encouraging me to write him up or report him to Josh, maybe this gym should think about taking steps to address Jose's issues or to consider whether or not Jose is still a good fit for Fitness 19 despite his experience. read more

Tommie is the man. I saw how he was teaching his student (with special needs) and had to mention the care, patience and passion he had. A lot of people will downplay fitness 19 for being a less expensive gym but the higher cost ones doesn't mean quality and the staff in this fitness19 facility is something you can't put a price on. It is a community, although a crowded one at times, I was happy adding my son to. I could not recommend them enough. read more

Enjoy coming to this gym Isaiah who works there is always so welcoming, exactly what you want to see when entering a gym is a smiling face!

7 months past due for reviewing my local gym, but for good reason! I literally come here every other day after work and I've never had to wait in line for any of the treadmills! Occasionally, I do have to wait for some of the machines (but I wander around other machines and workout). I first tried this gym out for a week (there was a promo coupon during the summer for first time gym users) and afterwards, I just signed up for a 3 year deal for $300 with no initiation fee for multi-gym use. That was less than half of what I used to pay at LA Fitness (in Los Angeles) for 3 years! This gym is smaller than other gyms I've been to, but it's got everything I need - cardio machines, free weights, barbells, stetching mats, and cables. I still haven't gone to any of the classes, but the Bollywood dancing classes sound pretty cool! Another great part of this gym is that the free weights are always re-racked and re-racked correctly. I don't have to go scouring far and high for a 15 pound weight because it's usually where it's supposed to be. The bathrooms and locker room is pretty clean as well. I've never encountered strange messes or weird smells, so that's always a plus. The only grudge I have against the layout of this gym is that the treadmills are literally placed right in front of the windows, so it's pretty hard to watch anything on the TV screens unless you're on one of the 3 treadmills facing the mirror in which case you can catch a glimpse of the reflection of the TVs. Otherwise, this is a great local gym in Livermore! read more

I feel so welcomed and safe here. I first visited another local Fitness 19 and to my dismay many were not wearing masks and they were not enforcing the rules. I called and talked to Jake the manager at another fitness 19 location and expressed some of my concerns. He offered to give me a tour and discuss his policies to keep his members safe. He really cares. I did sign up and have been very happy. Cauy the trainer was awesome. Yes he wants to sell you training sessions because it's his job to do so. I politely said no thank you to his training offers. He showed me some of the equipment and settings best suited for me. He even spotted me using the weight machine incorrectly and gave me some tips. Make sure you try the hydro massage lounges. One last note: They play a great blend of music for all tastes. I like that. read more

Very clean gym. All equipment is top notch. I love that you have to trade in keys to get barbell collars. Very large space so there's plenty of room and it doesn't feel crowded. Staff is extremely welcoming and available to answer questions. You really feel like family here. read more
