Couldn't have asked for a better place to get my butt kicked every time I come in. Been going to Fitness Impact for a number of years now and I can honestly say that this place is home. Everyone genuinely cares about you inside the gym as well as out. Gregg is not only the strength and conditioning coach for Long Beach Poly High school, but he teaches a variety of sports training, muy thai, and tons more. In short, he knows what he's doing and he will get you the results you want. read more

I just joined this private gym after reading AJ K.'s review, realizing it was the same gym that I passed by everyday going home and of course, visiting them! I was looking to join a gym that wasn't too expensive or crowded and had good customer service. I think this might be the place. I walked in and was greeted by San. She was cheerful and dare I say, peppy? I felt like Oscar the Grouch around her (in mood, not attitude). She convinced me to sign up. I was leery of the $220 yearly membership fee but it was only for one year at a time. They don't follow the pattern of Bally's or 24hrs' three year contracts. They have different classes everyday and it's $8 per class if you want to join. They offer: H.E.L.P. (all-around fitness), Muay Thai, Jiu-Jitsu, Boxing, Wrestling, Cardio Kick-Boxing, Kali, Kids Sports Training, Pilates, and Yoga. Like AJ K. said, the difference here is support. You're not exercising alone. They'll teach you how to exercise properly so you'll maximize your workout each time whether it's a personal training session or class. I'll update in a few months. We'll see if I get the results I'm hoping for! read more

I've been training at this gym since it opened in 2004 a year before my 2005 wedding to 'look good'. I am still coming religiously and this place has really changed my life for the better as well as the others that come here. I've always been actively going to Bally's by the circle but lacked a real focus that only a personal trainer can give you. However, I could not afford the typical one on one trainer for more than twice a month. Fitness Impact is a private gym in a quiet neighborhood on Loma in a fairly large space just north of PCH. Although they have one on one training I opted for the group H.E.L.P. class that the owner Greg personally instructs. The re is a myriad of training classes consisting of mostly 3 classes/wk and is broken down into different levels. The real difference for me is that it gives me a schedule after work and then the instructor motivates me from there. What's great is I don't have to think about what to do next or if I am doing it correctly. Everyone at this gym is very friendly and unbelievably helpful. This a a place where anyone can be comfortable from overweight persons wanting to change their lives to sportstars training in off-season to everyone in between. I love to EAT and a PARTY so coming to this place is a great balance in my life. read more

I absolutely love Fitness Impact, it has become my second family. Everyone here has the same goal, and that's to be fit! There's no fancy equipments and no state of the art machines....we use what we have and that's the way I enjoy my workout. Gregg has been a phenomenal trainer and has definitely taken my strength to the next level and I continue to improve on my weakness and strengthen my strength. I've been coming here for over 5 years and the workouts are never easier! I love the challenge and the pain, even though I bitch and whine all the time! As they say, "sore today, stronger tomorrow". Everyone here work out at a different level and Gregg never forgets who is at which level and I applaud him for his memory! Because I never remember my level! At Fitness Impact, we climb ropes, flip tires, squat with Olympic bars, Muay Thai kickboxing, and so many other regimen. It's awesome! It's my addiction! He also have nutrition class that helps you get your diet on track and many other seminars to improve your overall health. read more

Yes, I used to be guilty of paying a monthly fee at a corporate gyms like 24hr fitness, and would never go. When I did go I pretended to get a full workout in but never noticed any results. My friend introduced me to Gregg, and Gregg has this 3 free trial session, to see if this is something you want to commit to. Let me tell you it was the BEST DECISION I MADE!!! I've been a member of the HELP classes for about 7-8 months now and I still walk out of the gym feeling sore (the good sore) in muscles I never knew existed. What I love most about Gregg is that he continues to challenge me, only because he knows what I am capable of. He sits down with you to go over nuturition and weight goals. I go three times a week and I have noticed changes in my body, Im trying to get ready for summer, VEGAS POOL PARTIES lol! What I love most about Fitness Impact is the "family vibe" everybody is so friendly and you see familiar faces all the time, these faces eventually become your support group. If you are looking for a more personal vibe I suggest you check out this gym! I pay bills which can be annoying at times and let me be the first to say I never get upset when I see my monthly statement for F.I because it is worth every single dollar of my hard earned money! Gregg is the best by the way ask for him! read more

I participate in the HELP classes and get my butt handed to me on a regular basis. There is a lot of variety in the workouts and it's a well rounded way to work out. It feels very much like a family in there, with the warm colors and decor. Definitely not stale like other chain gyms. read more

I have been going to Fitness Impact off and on for several years now and each time I have achieved my goals. (the maintenance is the hard part - ha!) This is the first gym that I truly felt where I wouldn't get judged, have a great workout and have a good time doing it. Gregg understands when to push you and when to take it easy. Most of the time he pushes you! Besides the H.E.L.P. classes, semi-private & private classes, they also offer classes such as Muay Thai, Kick Boxing, Self Defense and more. You might even hear Gregg conducting a class on the beach! If Gregg is not available, Alan is another great trainer there as well. His classes that are held at the beach not only get you a great tan, but also a great workout where you are going to feel it for days to come. And when you do get sore and/or need a little T.L.C., see Debbie, a massage therapist there, who SERIOUSLY does wonders! My husband and my mom see Debbie whenever they can. Don't take my word for it, stop by the gym and see for yourself how unique this gym is. read more

This isn't a 24 fitness, this isn't a curves or even a weight watchers. It's a family atmosphere centered around totally body health. I'm a lifelong member earned through the countless drops of sweat spilled onto the floors. So my tip is bring a towel and a open heart. read more

Fitness Impact - The man in charge. - Weight Loss Centers Near Me

Great trainer , great group of supportive people , always down to help the community and make Long Beach a healthy place !

I have been going to Fitness Impact since November of 2004 after my first baby was born. Gregg Washington, my trainer and also the owner of Fitness Impact, has been my biggest advocate to be strong, be healthy and along the way, lose my "baby weight". Since I started with Gregg, I now have a second child and am wearing the same size as when I got married six years ago! I have had personal trainers for almost 15 years but Gregg has been the best-He knows how far to push me, his gym is huge so there is plenty of room and all different kinds of equipment to do many different exercises and he knows how to combine exercises to really make a big impact. One of the other things Gregg does is check in on how I am eating--no pressure just reminders of what I should be doing. My husband and my children (3 1/2 and 1 1/2) appreciate how happy I am to be healthy and strong! read more

Fitness Impact is amazing! I have been going there for over 2 years and working out with "Red" as my personal trainer. I love the positive energy, the staff and cleanliness of the gym. Both Red and Gregg are professionals in the fitness field. Gregg has trained both of our sons and my husband as well. They truly are members of our extended family! read more

I thought I had already done every type of stretching and maneuvering possible for anyone to do, until I came here. Great workout. It's nice to feel sore muscles in places you never knew you even had muscles.! read more

so i just started training here at fitness impact and let me tell you about the amazing feedback Ive been getting about my body. Ive been there for a month and you can already see results!! i lost 5-7lbs and i have definitely slimmed down. the staff here really takes care of your wants and needs without judging you, they push you when you don't think you can go anymore and that is exactly what i needed, and the enviorment is intense(from working out) but friendly. i really recommend this gym to anybody!! go head and see for yourselves if you don't believe me :) read more

Prior to coming to Gregg, I worked out at one of those impersonal, over-crowded chain gyms, and never felt the need for a personal trainer. During college, I played Division I baseball and developed a fairly robust understanding of lifting weights and staying in shape. Or so I thought. Following college, I continued to practice the same brand of working out and was reasonably satisfied with my results... until I found Gregg. Since then, I have been exposed to an entirely new dimension of physical fitness and now realize how little I actually knew about "working out." With his experience in the Navy SEALS and background in kinesiology, Gregg understands how to structure your workouts to help you achieve your personal best. Gregg places an emphasis on core-strengthening exercises and combines power movements with circuit-style training to keep your body moving and your mind guessing. What would a typical workout look like, exactly? Well, let me put it this way. Before going to Fitness Impact, I had never flipped a tire the length of a parking lot, climbed a rope to the top of a ceiling, or crawled backwards down a runway while doing pushups on a medicine ball. But even though every workout feels like a mini-boot camp (or at least what I imagine a mini-boot camp would feel like), Fitness Impact has a fun and relaxed atmosphere - the kind of place you like hanging out at. So, if you want to push yourself to your limits, physically and psychologically, you have to go see Gregg! read more
