Can't say enough good about Justin, Rachel and San Diego Core Fitness! I've completely changed my…read morelife over the last ten months having purchased their 6-week groupon for my New Year's resolution. I've become a morning person, waking up for two sessions of boot camp while watching the sunrise, as well as the most important part, lost 20 lbs and am way more fit than I have been in a long time!!! I've also made some good friends and while it's a solo activity for the most part, you definitely do team workouts that make it more challenging and help you push and support each other. Kind of a funny side note, it was another two friends that convinced me to buy the groupon and I am the only one who stuck around for more than one class :-) So I'd say this boot camp is for the committed. You won't see results overnight and it will be hard, but well worth it AND you will learn workouts you can do on your own, without a gym, with every day items. Even when I go away, I am now conditioned to do my 30-45 second sets of strength, cardio and core. I'm addicted and LOVE San Diego Core Fitness for making me excited to wake up in the morning!

I found out about Irving & 1-on-1 trainer through a friend who had completely transformed his body…read more I have an aversion from going to gyms as my experience has been poor--waiting for machines, crowded. I did some research about pricing and session duration before signing up with Irving. My first session consisted of a physical assessment and discussing my fitness goals. It has been just over a year and a half at 1-on-1 Trainer & I am very pleased. I have learned an incredible amount about physical capacity. I am an active person who comes from a Dance & Theatre background, however I have not ever weight-trained. One of the biggest things I have impressed upon my work with Irving is that I want to learn the proper form as well as cultivate better overall habits in physical wellness. Irving and I recently discussed taking my training to the next level and starting to focus on building a bit more muscle mass. My initial goals were to tone up, strengthen my glutes and back--all of which has been achieved. I am grateful to 1-on-1 Trainer for the time, patience & support. Here's to continuing the journey!

Jey was recently recognized for being the Best Personal Trainer in Serra Mesa for 2026 and the…read moreaward did not surprise me. Why? Because, I can personally attest that Jey is the real deal. Showing up. Doing the work. Day after day. Month after month. Year after year. This is not just a pump-up review. (pun intended) I watched Jey with my own eyes for years because we worked out at the same gym every single day. That was 26 years ago. The passion, the grit, the consistency were always there. What makes him different is that he does not just train others, he trains himself. Mentally, physically, and emotionally. He is constantly pushing himself and figuring out what it takes to get to the next level so he can help his clients get there too. That is how Jey ended up here. A plan. Consistency. Discipline. There are no shortcuts. If you want results, Jey is the guy who will get you there, no matter your starting point or fitness level.

2016 Mike has moved his location and is now up the street…read moreinside the building with Evolve Physical Therapy at 11468 Sorrento Valley Rd. Ste. A, San Diego, CA 92121 I first started working out with Mike in 2008. I wanted to lose weight and tone up. Before we did anything, we went through a comprehensive evaluation of my current status and my goals and then he gave me dietary guidelines that were easy to understand and easy to follow. We started working out twice a week. Immediately I started losing weight and feeling stronger, AND I had more energy. Mike knows when to push me and when I am at my limit. In the days following my workouts with him I always have that feeling that my muscles have been working, they are not too sore but giving me just the right amount of feedback that my body is changing. I start feeling better, looking better and getting stronger. Through the years, I have taken breaks away from weight training with Mike. But as months sneak by, I'd notice my weight starting to creep up just a little bit, 3 to 5 lbs or so. I come back to Mike and get immediate results. I like the way I feel when I stay on a regular program with him. I know weight training increases the body's metabolism and helps me burn more calories even when at rest. And having that accountability of checking in with him weekly just helps me stay on track with healthier food choices. I have been going to Mike for 6 years now, and the workouts are never boring. He always manages to introduce something new to keep it interesting. I always have a good time going to the gym, which is something I never would have said before working with Mike.

As a personal trainer, Mike Maio is stellar. As simple as that…read more He is upbeat, friendly, knowledgeable, and most important of all, uncommonly easy to work with. I cannot overemphasize this point; Mike goes out of his way to make EACH workout session fun, and his easy-going personality is a big part of that. He will push you when he needs to, but is also accommodating to your needs. No ego, no hidden agendas, no small-print, no extra costs. He is also flexible with scheduling on a day-by-day basis. Mike promised me results when I first started. And I am here to say that there have been results. You figure out your personal fitness goals when you first meet with him, and then you jump straight into the exercise regimen without any fuss. He also works with each individual's intended fitness trajectory to set up customized nutritional goals. I had reservations about a few things in this regard, and he was able to easily accommodate them. There is no better feeling than knowing that you are getting in better shape. And to simply see your clothes fit better. And as the previous commenter mentioned, I owe my progress entirely to Mike. If you are in the slightest doubt, I would urge you take up the first complimentary evaluation session with Mike. You literally have nothing to lose. I cannot recommend Push Personal Training enough.

I've been working with Justin for the past 10 months, and I honestly can't say enough good things…read more His nutrition coaching has completely changed the way I approach food, fitness, and my body. I've lost fat, gained lean muscle, and for the first time in years, I feel like I'm in a truly balanced and sustainable place. What I loved most is that this wasn't some strict, miserable diet plan. Justin built a personalized program that let me enjoy life without spiraling. That was a huge shift for me. I used to fall off track all the time, but now I feel in control and way more confident in my choices. He uses real science (like DEXA scans to track progress) and takes a holistic approach that actually makes sense. I've never felt healthier, and he even helped me improve what he calls "metabolic flexibility," which just means my metabolism is strong and I can bounce back easily if I have a higher-calorie day. If you're looking for someone who truly knows their stuff and customizes everything to your lifestyle, I recommend you give Justin a call.

I did not have a positive experience at all with Justin…read more After less than 3 weeks I decided to discontinue services with him. This was based on cancelled appointments ,excuses for things not getting and lack of professionalism. I tried to discontinue services at week 2 when I didn't receive meal plans bc phone overheated , computer wasn't charged, cancelled appointments bc of stomach bug and the next day it was car stolen (see text pics below) He stated he did not offer refunds and to give it another try. Week 3 was when I finally decided I had had enough when he cancelled an appointment at 3:42 am bc he was "sea sick" from the earthquake. I emailed him wanting a pro rated refund and listing all his excuses he got very unprofessional. He took no ownership and blamed me and MY behavior on my antidepressants. He displayed arrogant behavior by saying no one talked to him that way and I didn't deserve his presence (see attached pic) At this point there was no way I could continue working with him. The relationship between trainers and clients are very personal. Based on the excuses ,unprofessional behavior and insults I let him know I was filing a complaint with Better Business Bureau ,writing a yelp review of my experience and going to small claims court. I'm writing this in hopes that no one else has this experience.A fitness journey should be a positive experience.But I did learn a valuable lesson not to hire people solely based on yelp reviews. Thankfully I found an excellent new trainer /nutrionist based on references and results from people I know. Update : The response below from Justin is EXACTLY the type of behavior I experienced after requesting a partial refund. He made negative personal claims against me which has nothing to do with me requesting a refund and is extremely unprofessional. * I've never been suspended from work nor had unprofessional conversations *I blocked all communication due to this type of content in his communication. Venmo is all that's required for a refund. So no restraining order or vile messages. * I rarely drink let alone show up to workout intoxicated I've never experienced such unprofessional behavior from a business owner after asking for a refund & cancellation of services.

Shes built such a positive culture where people cheer each other on, celebrate wins (big and small), and genuinely want to see each other succeed. It feels like a community, not just a gym. Working with her has been one of the best decisions I've ever made for myself. She has pushed me in ways I didn't know I needed, but always with compassion, encouragement, and deep understanding. She pays attention to form, mindset, and personal goals. My confidence has grown so much over the past year. I feel stronger, more capable and doubt myself far less then I did before in many ways.

I began in July and Lindsey and the community in this gym have truly changed my life and pushed me to be more confident in my skin, believe in myself more and have taught me that I am so much stronger and capable than I think I am. She creates long lasting healthy habits that are realistic. She truly cares so much about the people that enter her gym and you become apart of the Underground Fitness family.
