For a long time I was dealing with a lot of recurring pain, especially with my back. Every time it…read morewould happen my mind would immediately go to, "Here we go again. My back is always going to do this. I can't do anything. I'm not going to be able to do the things I love." Bouldering is a huge part of my life, so when my back would flare up I would immediately worry that I would not be able to climb anymore or that I would always have to be careful with what I did. The biggest thing that changed for me was the educational side of the program and changing the way I thought about pain. I started to understand my body better and stopped seeing pain as an automatic sign that I needed to stop everything or that something was seriously wrong. I feel a lot more confident in my body now and I have a much better understanding of how to keep moving and doing the things I love. For me this was not just about doing workouts. It was really a lifestyle change and a mindset change in how I move, how I think about pain and how I take care of my body long term.

As an active 40-year-old, back injuries are my biggest fear. In the past, a similar injury kept me…read moresidelined from exercise for months at a time, in constant pain. This time was completely different thanks to Dr. Jason. From the start, his evaluation was thorough and professional. Instead of just treating the symptoms, he took the time to identify the actual cause of my injury -- hamstring weakness and imbalance I didn't even know I had. He gave me a targeted set of exercises to address it, and I was pain-free within a week. I'm so thankful I found him. Dr. Jason is incredibly knowledgeable, and you walk away from every session having actually learned something about your own body -- not just told what to do. If you're dealing with an injury and want to get back to an active lifestyle quickly, I can't recommend him enough!

I thought I would never run again. Sometimes my back hurts and I don't want to do anything. I work out with him and my back doesn't hurt while we are hitting it and I walk away feeling fantastic. I don't know how he does it but it's better than every other trainer I've worked out with. He knows all of the new training methods and applys them to my personal situation. He is really exceptional in his field.

I was looking around for a personal trainer and connected with Todd based on the great reviews on…read moreYelp. Right from the start, Todd was extremely prompt with his communication and we were scheduled for a free assessment within a couple of days. He even set me up with a week-long pass to the gym Todd used the assessment to understand my physical state, my flexibility, movement issues, etc by having me do a couple of reps of a host of exercises. At the end of the session, we discussed what a training plan would look like. What I really liked about his training program was that he was willing to work around my constraints. I wanted to work with a trainer just once a week and he was willing to give me structure homework routines to do on my own on the other days. He also used MyFitnessPal to keep a track of diet and make suggestions. After the session, he was great about following up and answering any questions that I had. Overall, I had a great experience with Todd and I would highly recommend considering him if you're in the market for a personal trainer.

I've always considered myself athletic, but never really could get into a good gym routine myself…read more I'd run a bit, bike a bit, but always very inconsistent. I found this gym 5 years ago (then known as Arena Ready) and I've been consistently going 3-4x/week during that whole time. The motto "just show up" rings true as that's all you need to do. Once you arrive the coaches lead you through a directed warmup (to prevent injury) and workout. I loved not having to think about anything and just doing what was programmed, plus everyday is different so it's never boring and truly full body. Now 5 years in, I've formed many family friendships through the gym and cannot wait until we can return to our indoor space! Whatever your fitness goals, you'll find a partner to help at Fog City!

I can't thank these guys enough for the great gym they run, and how chill they are. They aren't super intense caricatures of CrossFit people. Coach Alex especially, who has been my coach most often, is such an incredible teacher and dude. He has a keen eye and makes sure that people are showing good form, and the gym is overall great about offering "scaling" options - basically stepping down the workout for wherever you're at. Learned a ton about form and feel much more confidence in myself around strength training. I felt and sometimes looked different after even just 1 class. I like to drink a protein shake either before or right after to minimize sore muscles. I never thought I'd become a CrossFit person - I just started going because it was 2 mins from my house - but here I am hooked! Thanks FCCF!

Thank you for listening to my concerns and handling the situation with such professionalism. I truly appreciate it and wish Strength Camp continued success.

I really wanted to love this gym since it's convenient and is a small business. However being a…read moremember has proved to be disappointing and I ultimately left this gym. Here are the main issues I had- -It's very cramped and can therefore get busy fast. -The cardio area in the front doesn't have enough air circulation or purification. However purification and circulation are a problem everywhere there. -Members regularly show up sneezing, coughing, and with runny noses. -The gym is unattended most of the time, and when staff are present they're glued to devices. The gym's own basic rules just go unenforced. -The equipment is regularly dirty and sweaty. The vast majority of members do not wipe off equipment after they have used it (much less before they use it.) And staff absolutely does not pick up the slack and clean off sweaty machines or provide even gentle reminders to members, in real time. Feels gross and makes it too easy to pick up colds, flu, Covid etc. -If you accidentally forget your water bottle you'll be totally out of luck! They only provide a bubbler- no cups. -There is not composting or recycling throughout the facility. Only the two cans by the entrance offer sustainable options. -Using their platform was difficult both from a cell phone and via the Safari browser. Like most other people in the Bay I'm an iPhone user so this proved to be inconvenient. -They milked me for another month when it was time to cancel. Their cancellation process is not straightforward and bought and you can be charged an entire month's membership, even if you cancel several days before the regular day your dues always deduct. It's a common feeling that if you cancel before your monthly renewal date, you should not be charged on the next renewal date. So to me it seems like their cancellation process is confusing and also is poor business practice, plain and simple. Really the only major perk here was that I could walk here. Ultimately this business might benefit from some local competition. I really don't recommend this gym and hope for Bernal's sake that they make some serious changes.

Terrible costumer service! I joined the gym because I…read morethought it would be a closer alternative to my main gym. Every time I attempted to enter my fob did not work (when I picked it up I confirmed with the employee that it worked). I was so frustrated when this happened a second time I emailed the gym asking if someone could let me in. I was instructed that I needed to wait until staff hours by the founder. Since I don't work in the city I would not be able to meet them during those hours (11-12) This ended up causing some weird email and text argument with the founder who was so rude. I canceled my membership (considering I couldn't even use the gym I pay for) and was charged randomly 2X the expected charge. When I asked for an itemized receipt like any normal business can provide founder responded with the attached email. What a terrible way to do business. Avoid this gym.
