My personal trainer Christina Marks is a professional UFC / MMA fighter, and specializes in Muay Thai. I really like her genuine approach at whatever pace I need to start and maintain the training I've been looking for. I can see that is reflected in the other coaching staff as well. The facility is impressive and clean with all the essential equipment needed for training. There's a boxing ring as soon as you enter, boxing bags lined up, cardio equipment, and a lot of outdoor training space. The only challenge I see is the limited parking, and sometimes is used for training. However, there is an adjacent parking lot for overflow.

Fast forward a few months later and I am still here because it has become way more than just a gym to me. What makes this place different is how personal everything feels. Sean genuinely takes the time to understand your goals, your habits, and why you are trying to make a change. It never felt like I was just another membership or being thrown into some generic workout plan. I am someone who likes understanding the data and reasoning behind things, so the detailed scans, movement analysis, and check ins were a huge plus for me. Sean always took the time to walk me through the results in a way that actually made sense and helped me understand what needed improvement, not just physically, but with recovery, consistency, and overall lifestyle habits too. The culture at The Fit Lab is also something special. Everyone is welcoming, supportive, and there is zero ego. You get honest feedback, accountability, and a team that genuinely wants to see you succeed. I originally came in wanting to improve my fitness, but I ended up learning a lot more about how to train properly, recover better, and build habits that actually feel sustainable long term. If you are looking for more than just workouts and want a place that truly cares about helping people improve their lives, I highly recommend Sean and The Fit Lab.

If you're someone who's motivated by data, feedback, and understanding the why behind what you're doing, this gym is an incredible fit. Sean, the owner, genuinely takes the time to listen, ask the right questions, and dig deeper into your goals and motivations--not just what you want to achieve, but why it matters to you. Some of my favorite highlights include: * A supportive, welcoming culture with both the team and other members * Curated workout plans tailored to your individual goals * In-depth data analysis and consultations to ensure you're on track * Flexible scheduling * Honest, real feedback--no fluff, just what you need to hear What I appreciated most was how Sean consistently walked me through my data, clearly explaining what was working and what needed adjustment, always backed by evidence. Beyond changing my physique, The Fit Lab helped me build better lifestyle habits and truly understand how to train correctly--and what that consistency can lead to long term. If you're looking for more than just workouts and want education, accountability, and real results, I can't recommend The Fit Lab enough.

Originally why I stopped coming was due to how crowded and unorganized it was which was such a deterrent! After the recent remodel with up to 18-20 Squat Racks, additional benches/dumbbells, and more Leg Machines, I started coming here over my favored UTC, but now that UTC downgraded from 11 Racks to 6 and removed the outdoor area in favor of potential Pickleball Courts I will not be going back unless they can bring back what they had before or even better as it's not a great place to go anymore for a Powerbuilding workout. For a Push Pull Leg workout between 3-5 days a week Balboa really hits better now and my only gripes are if they had more of the nice water bottle refill stations and cleaned the bathroom more since people come in from the pool and leave the ground wet, but the plumbing and cleanliness here is still better than at UTC which seemed to not make any changes on that front. If the dumbbells were organized as well that would be great but I can see how hard it is to manage. Overall this is my new home for now and definitely would recommend as it's not as seemingly as crowded before with more equipment availability. 3 stars but I would put 4 if the place itself was more organized and bathroom was always clean and dry!

The problem is this location has a serious overcrowding problem, so it can be difficult to use the equipment you want without waiting a lot.

Well, everyone has been back to the gym with a vengeance for a few years now and they need to open new locations.

There's no divide between small dogs and big dogs, so it's best to just keep an eye on your dog, and many owners around here are usually respectful. The street parking immediately adjacent to the park is free, however, it has a limit of 30 minutes, and the parking meter workers are strict on it if they're around. I bring my dog here around lunch time because those who live/ work in the area tend to bring their dogs during their break time and my dog gets his socialization time. They close 8am-11am MWF for maintenance/ cleaning. Currently, both gates are broken so it's not as secure as it should be, and who knows when the city will actually fix it. There're a few agility structures and a water dispenser. The children's park itself looks pretty cool for kids with a lot of structures with slides and swings. There's also another separate area with fixed exercise equipment that looks well- maintained. The water feature in the park is a water feature, not a pool.
