Prevail Strength & Conditioning - Gyms Near Me - Laguna Beach, California

Prevail is an unbelievably amazing facility with top notch equipment, beautiful amenities including showers and best of all, inspiring, kind trainers who get results you'd never expect. My trainer Ryan, is a calm, kind and encouraging coach, and the best I've ever had. For people like me, going to the gym can be daunting, discouraging or a little embarrassing. The environment here is completely the opposite. This isn't your backyard CrossFit, run out of a storage bin. It's a full on gym, in a beautiful location, with awesome amenities and even better staff. This is coming from a real, paying customer, and I was never asked for by Prevail to write this. But I want to see the reviews roll in, so I'm happy to be the first. read more

I have been training with Jack for over a year now and he is incredibly knowledgeable and creates a personalized plan to help you reach your health and fitness goals! I also love the InBody machine so you can get precise and reliable information about your progress! This place is really a gem! read more

I've been training with Ryan since November 2016. I came to Ryan with a bad lower back and chronic knee and quad pain after one too many bootcamp-style classes. He taught me the importance of developing long-term strength gains through a combination of periodized weight training and high-intensity cardio. In other words, if I want to engage in high-volume, high-impact workouts, I need to develop the strength and muscle composition to sustain these impacts. More than two years later, I am in the best shape of my life. The numbers don't lie: my one-rep max for the back squat started at 155 lbs; it's now 265 lbs. My deadlift (from 6" blocks) has increased from 205 to 335; overhead press from 90 to 140; and bench press from 145 to 200. And I have been injury free since I've met him! Ryan's demeanor is calm, friendly and encouraging, but also steady and unwavering: He helps me get into the zone so I can make that one final rep or give that one extra push. Ryan is also very knowledgable and detail-oriented, giving me precise directions on form and technique (spoiler alert: the bench press is not just about your arms and chest!) and varying the sets, reps and tempo to create more efficient movement and challenge your body. At the same time, he knows my limits and has stopped me from over-exerting myself more than a couple of times - as someone who likes to go all out on every single workout, his sense of restraint has certainly saved me from a world of injury and pain! What I admire about Prevail is the pride that Ryan and Jack (the co-founders) take in their craft: they are always reading and learning about new strength strategies and techniques, and developing programming that incorporates the latest in physical science. Their dedication also shines through in the gym layout: it's sophisticated, neat and clean, and the equipment is top notch and well-maintained. Clients also enjoy complimentary access to a range of pre- and post-workout supplements during their personal training sessions. Doesn't hurt that it is located in the center of Laguna Beach - a fairly quick drive from most locations in South OC. I am immensely grateful to Ryan and Jack for creating this space, and for changing my approach to training and fitness. If you prefer substance over style, and real results over glossy and unrealistic advertising, this is the place to go. read more

Jack has been my personal trainer since 2014, and my girlfriend and I have been coming to train here since they opened. The facility is really bright and open, when the weather is nice they even open large doors on each side of the gym which really brings in the ocean breeze. The facility is only a short walk to Main Beach in Laguna. I highly encourage everyone to stop by and check out Prevail! read more

I have been training for 10 years and I know a good space when I see one. Ryan and Jack are some of the nicest people around. I live in San Diego and needed a spot in Laguna to train an MLB pitching coach that lives in Anaheim. I found this hidden gem. They welcomed me and my client with wide open arms. When I got there I felt comfortable and not like an alien which is veryyy easy to do in the fitness industry. Ryan and Jack are AWESOME people. If you are in the area, stop by and you won't regret it. The facility is super super clean and modern. Another hard thing to do in the fitness industry is to keep a clean space! Way to go guys. I will definitely be back! The space is family friendly and everyone is smiling and there are all different types of people training there! Woot Woot #teamprevail Go train with them! read more

I have been training with Jack since March 2017. He is, by far, the best trainer I have ever had. Jack develops a customized program for each client based on that client's physical condition and goals. In addition. Jack continuously changes the program based on client feedback. I have had fantastic results with Jack. When I began working out with Jack I had chronic joint pain and was very stiff in the morning. With Jack's help, today I am virtually pain-free and can do a much wider range of exercises than when I began training with Jack. I have also noticed an improvement in my daily functioning. Jack is extremely knowledgeable and I truly appreciate his ability to tailor my program so that I can continue working out even if I have a minor injury. The gym itself is a very nice facility which is light and airy and very well-equipped. The restrooms are modern and clean and there is also an outdoors area. read more
