Thomas is a great trainer. He's very responsive to your personal fitness/health situation and works with you from where you are at. If you have an injury, he knows how to work around it and to strengthen you to avoid future injuries. Very good with seniors who have to build up strength slowly. Also good with young people who may need motivation and to be challenged. Knows his stuff in terms of exercise physiology. read more

The things i learned about myself through Trent led me to finally understand what worked for me physically and nutritionally. The last 8 months have been a challenge but now i am on the right path to staying successful and progressing more. Thanks to Trent for continuing to keep me focused. read more

So you're scoping out gyms on Yelp, huh? Well good for you. You're that much closer to getting off the couch and doing something sweaty, and appealing with you life. If you're here in the South Bay, up on the hill, or even inland a bit, and you want to find a gym you can call your own, this is the place for you. Trent and his wife Vicky are two of the most knowledgeable trainers that are widely recognized throughout the area not only for their expertise, but their approach and vibrant personalities. I know this to be true, because I have been working with Trent personally for the better part of a decade, and there is no place I'd rather be. They take a personal interest in you, should you desire to build a working relationship, based not only on health and fitness, but on tailoring a routine and diet, specific to you. Again, if that's what you would like from them. You only get out of working out, what you put into it, and if you're only going to half-ass it, you might as well sit back down on the couch and turn the television back on. This gym is a place people want to be, and the trainers here will help you push yourself to a place where you appreciate being able to tackle your fitness goals with finesse. Mitchell Fitness Systems can handle every kind and level of person interested in working out. From rehabilitation to weight training, agility and strength training, to distance and endurance training for the academy, and everything in between. Whether you're a newcomer to the gym, a high school athlete looking for that varsity edge, a seasoned veteran looking for that extra pump, or an elderly person trying to keep track of their muscle mass, it doesn't matter, they can handle anything you can bring their way. And make you even better at it. read more

If you want the finest facility and trainers for your workout Mitchell Fitness is the only place to go. I've been a client of Mitchell Fitness for 7 years. Trent Mitchell is my trainer. Trent is constantly changing up the workout so I'm never bored with the same thing. Also, Trent broadens his knowledge base on a continuous basis. I dare say he's more knowledgeable than most Physical Therapists and quite a few doctors. The workouts at Mitchell Fitness are individualized for each client and their particular needs. For instance, after 25 years of back pain and several doctors, tests, physical therapy, chiro, etc.....Trent is the only person that was able to make my constant back pain virtually non-existent. He really is an amazing trainer, as are all the trainers at Mitchell Fitness. And Vicki, well she makes you feel as if you're part of their big family and she's an amazing trainer also. The atmosphere is one of comfort, and you always feel welcomed....a rarity these days. I would recommend only Mitchell Fitness if it's an improved and healthier body you're after. read more

Trent and his staff are well-educated, credentialed and a pleasure with whom to interact. Jim M read more

Trent is an integrous and positive person as well as an extremely motivating and knowledgeable coach. He is truly committed to his client's well being. Being an exceptional trainer for the many various age groups and physical situations, Trent created an exercise program that enabled my ability to work out all the way up until very the week of my son's birth. Later, Trent trained that same son in high school to successfully prepare for his college baseball career. Class act. L.M. Decades Client read more

Knowing Trent personally, I can state assuredly that he is the best trainer in the South Bay area.

As a person in his mid 60s, I can easily endorse your consideration of any of the staff at Mitchell Fitness. While Vicky Mitchell is my personal trainer, I have also had the pleasure of having her husband Trent and their son Thomas as a trainer. They are all very professional, highly knowledgeable, extremely patient, and very reasonable. The staff at Mitchell fitness will customize your training program to support you in achieving your fitness objectives. Their gym is located in an industrial park off Lomita Boulevard. It is convenient and well equipped. If you want to make a difference in your life, please check them out. UPDATE - While there is no "I" in "Team", it was the superior fitness training at Mitchell Fitness that supported my significant contribution to my softball team winning the 2015 Culver City Senior Softball Championship on Sunday December 6, 2015. read more

Hooray!! No more meds for my bone density issues. Recently after my bone density test, I expected the worst coming from my doctor which was to continue with a stronger med for my condition. What about an increase in my bone density? I have to thank Coach Trent for that and more! Yes, it can be a struggle to continually improve and challenge your strength at times but with Trent's encouragement, his knowledge of my medical issue and his specific training of what my body needs made my immediate journey to wellness achievable. My personal goal of attaining fitness is on-going, as I become older realizing being healthy is a key to being a happier person and not taking it for granted. I have been working out with Trent for 8+ years now. His style of teaching the importance of a particular exercise, besides the what is, the why and the affects for your body. I have had many personal trainers since 1997 in a variety of gyms but no one trainer compares to the training from Trent Mitchell. I thank him for his professionalism, his superior knowledge of physiology, kinesiology, and nutrition while being dedicated to his clients and their well-being. If you are looking for a TRUE trainer, do yourself and your body a favor and look no further. read more

Trent, Cee and the programs they have put together are unbelievable. I've been working with Trent for about a year now and I am in the best shape of my life. The gym is always clean and comfortable, and Trent not only trains you physically but helps you with your diet as well. I would never go back to my old gym. read more

Trent Mitchel has trained my husband for years, he also got my two boys to a completely higher level of fitness. My daughter, who never liked working out and could not even do 3 push ups, trained with Vicky who made it so Much fun for her that she now regularly strength train. They are extremely professional and have knowledge about all aspect of physical training, they are both great people caring people as well. read more

Due to scheduling conflicts with Trent, I am now training with Trent's son Thomas full-time. Thomas might look young (and he is in his early 20's) but don't confuse youth with inexperience! While Thomas' personal fitness interest is functional strength, he's actually very well educated in many aspects of fitness, from stretching to core strength, balance, strength training, bodybuilding, and olympic lifting. You can tell a lot of Trent's vast fitness knowledge has been passed on to his son, and Thomas has also taken the time to educate himself on various aspects of fitness and human physiology. But, most importantly, Thomas is an excellent teacher. Thomas' friendly and humorous demeanor is a complement to his training methods, which can be as hardcore as you want (or need) them to be. Once again, this place is a class act! read more

I have been a client at Mitchell Fitness for 8 months. The Journey started with recommendation from a co-worker who has been a long standing client. I work in a physical field and I was out of shape. A Dr. from UCLA came to our organization with a health and wellness program. After testing i learned my numbers were sub par for my age. This Dr who tested us has been a client of Trents for multiple years. He recommended mitchell fitness, which I now realize was important investment of my life. That was the second individual that swore on Mitchell Fitness systems (MFS). I had to give it a shot! I decided to take the step and meet with one of the owners Trent for a free consultation. I was definitely apprehensive to say the least. When I walked into Mitchell Fitness there stood my future trainer Trent. Trent stands 6'2' and 230lbs of pure muscle. Intimidated? You bet. I was embarrassed to sit in front of somebody who obviously takes fitness so seriously. That embarrassed feeling was gone as soon as we sat down to talk. I quickly realized that Trent is very selfless and there to do what he loves, Changing peoples health for the better. We came up with a schedule and a plan and got to work two days later. Initial workouts were tough. I was out of shape. We progressed every week to more intense workouts yet i felt that that i wasnt as tired. Trent made me realize that means we are progressing. I started at 251lbs and 33% body fat. Today, 8 months later I am 212lbs and 21% body fat. I completely changed my "way of life' by simply following the MFS program. Mitchell Fitness offers a very comfortable environment. Every trainer is very friendly and they all have the same goals.. To help people! When I walk into Mitchell Fitness to train everybody is happy. I could tell that the staff really loves what they do. Trent is constantly giving me new goals, not one of these goals hasn't been unobtainable. I highly recommend Mitchell Fitness!!! read more

I have worked out with Thomas Mitchell for 5 months now. He is an excellent trainer and very knowledgeable. I am 58 years old and in decent shape, but wanted to compete in track and field again. i was very fearful of getting on a track again and injuring myself. Thomas started me out very slow with lots of posture correction, making sure I was balanced on both sides of my body. Then we got into developing all areas of my body. I have worn cartilage on the inside of my knees andThomas was very aware of this when planning my workouts and showing me the correct form in all my movements. now if I could only find a masters track team close to me that i could work out with. I highly recommend Thomas for personal training, he is awsome! Tracey B. read more

After working with Trent for only a few months my pain is gone, my balance is better and I feel better all around. He's very attentive and non judgmental. He makes you feel like you are the only one in the room. He pushes you but in a safe way so you are able to get a great workout while having the comfortability that he is watching to make sure you are moving correctly. Highly recommend!! (from my husband Adam W.) read more

I have been working out with both Trent and Thomas for two years now. They are both excellent at designing workouts that continually challenge your mind and body.

If you are serious about changing your body and have the discipline to eat right, Mitchell Fitness Systems can design a fitness program that will help you achieve the body you are looking for.

Having worked out with Trent for about thirteen years I'm still in awe of his commitment to providing the best training and support to everyone he serves. Over the years he has continued to educate himself and his clients with the latest in fitness techniques, healthful food research, personal goal setting, and positive support to aid in my quest to stay strong, limber, and active. Trent can adjust any program to suit my needs just by tweaking it slightly and I will be able to perform so much better. I like that MFS is always clean, well set up, and convenient. Trent takes so much pride in his profession and demonstrates it without words. He is a leader on a consistant basis! I truly believe my overall health (mind, body, spirit) has benefitted because of this man. read more

Vicki Mitchell took me from an untoned, bottom heavy figure to a bikini beach body in three short months, giving me the confidence to purchase and go out in public in a bikini, which I hadn't done in over 20 years! Soon, they're staring a Take Down Challenge, a program to losing weight of which I'm going to take part of. Can't wait!!! Thanks, Trent and Vicki! You're amazing and the BEST!!! read more
