This review is long overdue. I went to this gym about 3 years ago and I went for almost a year. You…read moremay wonder why I am making a review now if I haven't been in so long, well the reason is because although I have moved on from this gym because I moved out of the area, I have taken the lessons bob taught me, with me. He is truly knowledgeable in proper form and the training I acquired from him have transcended across time and gyms I have gone to since then. I started to go to a new gym in the area I live in now and although the trainers there are great they do not compare to the proper training I received from Bob. Even when working out at other gyms not affiliated with bob I am always complimented on my form and technique. Anyways if you're looking for a gym that is really going to slow things down, to learn the basics and push you to be the strongest you can be I recommend ITG.

This review is long overdue. I started my fitness journey 6 years ago and I've been in and out of…read morevarious gyms depending on where I live and where I work. I have to say out of all the gyms I've been to: FBBC, UFC, Planet Fitness, The Camp, and many other local family owned gyms, Concord fitness boot camp aka Fit Body Boot Camp concord has been the absolute best! I lost weight but the change was not just in appearance. I actually felt stronger and could notice the difference in my strength. My energy and endurance was like my teen days. The crazy part is appearance wise this gym has been the least impressive. But Virgil makes the small space functional and you really don't need much more than this. When I showed up for my first trial the location made me hesitant. Virgil's customer service was great and he made me feel welcomed. The other members were friendly and there were all ages and body types. I stayed and loved it. Everyone was extremely helpful and motivating. They all push you to finish your reps, to keep moving and not quit, and if you struggle they make you feel okay with modifying while teaching you ways to work on it until you can one day do what you're struggling with. It was hard but it seemed like within days my body learned how to handle doing sit ups and push ups. Another major part is nutrition. Virgil helped me with a shopping list and meal ideas. He is respectful but also doesn't sugar coat. With each weigh in he reminded me what I needed to do to stay on track. I also learned how to count calories. If I still lived in the area I would see about joining again. If I didn't give it 5 stars it is solely because of the cost. When I went it cost around by $300/month. Is it worth it? Yes. Is it affordable and feasible? No. I could not keep up going there as it was too much for my budget. Pictures for comparison of cheeks and chin when I first started in March to September

Came here for my first Bootcamp class via ClassPass. When I arrived, I wasn't sure if the place was…read moreactually open for business because it was boarded up on the windows. With reassurance from the owner (whose phone number was on Google), it was indeed open for business, I was excited to get moving for my Friday workout. I was introduced to the owner and other people who showed up for the class and I could tell they were regulars. The place looked pretty legit as you know I love legit gyms :-) I was asked to disinfect the bottom of my shoes as street shoes aren't allowed on the floor, since we laid on them for floor workouts. That made me feel better because I ain't tryna rest my head on a floor where people before me don't know where to walk sometimes and you don't know where they come from ahem, SF CITY STREETS!!! This was my first Bootcamp class in a long while so I was pretty thankful that Virgil (owner and trainer) allowed me to modify my workouts. It was a damn good sweat and I had great energy the rest of the day.

For the first time, I'm intentionally putting my health first -- and the investment has been well worth it. What I appreciate most is that the workouts are challenging without being intimidating. I never leave feeling defeated or so exhausted that I dread coming back. The format allows you to push yourself at your own pace, with a strong foundation in controlled, calisthenics-based movements. I also value the focus on balance training, stretching, and mindfulness. It really is a complete, well-rounded workout. Most of all, Julie, the instructors, and the women I've met here are incredibly supportive and welcoming. I'm so grateful I found this community, and I look forward to continuing my journey here.

This community of women, both instructors and members, are welcoming, amazing, and strong.

Her programming was always focused on what was most effective and efficient - I learned I had been doing so many exercises that felt hard but really weren't going to give me the results I wanted. She also has such a balanced and realistic approach to nutrition, and she was the perfect balance of motivating but understanding and compassionate when I was having an off-day.

At one point, I tried to express how I was feeling emotionally and physically during the process (not to quit, just to be honest), and instead of support, I was met with defensiveness and eventually dropped as a client. It became clear to me that her approach leans heavily on marketing to women's insecurities, encouraging more spending at her gym rather than fostering real, individualized care or long-term support. She's incredibly present in the beginning, but the attentiveness fades over time. I'm sharing this so others can make an informed decision. Working with a trainer should feel collaborative and grounded in mutual respect, unfortunately, that wasn't my experience here.
