I also always felt exhausted, and started to dread working out. After discovering MoveSF, I'm EXCITED to come to class now because it's different every time, I feel STRONGER, and the workout intensity is JUST enough where I have energy for more! I also think all the trainers are incredibly friendly and personable. I cannot recommend MoveSF more I've basically swapped out all other classes for this!

I love how they have a swimsuit dryer and plenty of showers. I highly recommend you purchase shower shoes! Don't let your feet touch the ground in the locker rooms. I like the 2 pool concept. It makes it easier for the lap swims to be spread out. I have a monthly pass and I have been swimming usually during the "lap swim" times. I know the "rec swim" can get busy here. Bring shoes!!! Staff are nice. Easy drop off and pick up area outside the building too.

All F45 classes last roughly around 45 minutes where members spend time (30-45 seconds) at a station working on strength or cardio exercises. For this particular class it was a mix but the burnout for me was the sled push with weights on it- I havent done it in a while so it felt good but I was gassed out while pushing back and forth on the turf. Each of the instructors were energetic, encouraging, and helpful on correcting form etc. The class is co ed and everyone is so tunnel focused on their progress that you don't feel secluded or judged. I went to F45's transbay location and they're both equally clean, organized, and a great workout environment.

Andre has helped me tremendously with modifications and teaching me correct form, as well as bringing an incredible and welcoming vibe to the studio! Excited to continue my training with F45 North Beach.

Super friendly local spot with weight workouts and yoga and weight oriented (NOT CLASSICAL)…read morePilates. They also have special one-off classes like a sound bath or quiet, rejuvenating yoga. They cultivate a community feeling and the owner memorizes your name quickly and makes you feel so welcome. I enjoyed the kettle bell class in person and online. No one made me feel wussy because I was choosing lighter weights and wasn't as strong as the regulars. The yoga class was lovely. I didn't like the core pilates class because it was really hard core and not enough Pilates, but the other 15 people in the class seemed really happy to be there. The kettle bell class had more like 8-10 people in it. They have massages and yoga too, but I haven't tried them.

I've been to BodyRok a few times at a few different locations and I have to say that outside of…read moreBerkeley, this one would be my favorite. It's very clean and I love the changes in the lighting they use during the classes. The customer service here is really good. Kelsie is the sweetest and always so helpful. And all of instructors that I've had so far have all been great. It's a "push yourself, but no pressure" type setting and I love that as someone that is still getting comfortable with the reformer. I hate that the changing/locker room is so small and I am often times left standing there waiting my turn to grab my things or rushing to get my locker together for a class, but that truly my only complaint. I also wished they could do a better job of airing out the room after a class. --maybe spraying a fragrance/deodorizer. This is a good, convenient location for afterwork and I've because of that, I've been in attendance at least once a week. It's not cheap, but not too expensive. I think I'm paying $35 per class and it's worth it.

I've been to a few BODYROK locations and this FiDi one is my fave so far :) I'm not a regular…read morepilates nor reformer pilates goer by any means, but I've never felt too lost during class since the instructors are helpful and attentive. I usually try to let the instructor know beforehand that I'm still getting familiar with the movements, and they usually suggest that I set myself up at the front of the room and/or next to someone who is more experienced. Most instructors tend to check in on me a bit more throughout the class, which is always appreciated. I try to go to daytime classes during the week if I'm available - those classes are a bit quieter and don't get too busy. That being said, even if you went at a "busy" time on a weekday evening or during the weekend, you shouldn't run into issues if you signed up in advance since it's one reformer per person anyway - it just means you might have fewer spot options if you don't arrive early enough. I like the variety of focuses/classes that BODYROK offers, so even though I don't plan to become a regular, I definitely see myself continuing to drop in from time to time in the future.

I was coming out of a recent reinjury of my L5 pars bulging disk, and at first, I was hesitant to lift any weights ever again. Fast forward 6 months later, I lost 2% body fat, gained 4 lbs of muscle, learned to deadlift over 290lbs.... and most importantly, I am in ZERO PAIN! He kept me safe throughout, pushed me to work harder, and overall, my time with him was a positive influence in my life, both in and out of the gym. I'd love to be coached by him again. Thanks so much, Alfonso!!

I highly recommend Joan Glick, owner and trainer of Fit for the Ages. Here's why:…read more In May of 2013 I met a woman (maybe in her late 50s early 60s?) who had been seeing Joan for a few months. She said that her outlook on what she was physically capable of had changed, and she had a whole new level of optimism about what she could do. She gave me Joan's information, so I did a bit of research and made my first appointment. What I was *not* looking for was a young, studly trainer guy (or girl). I also wanted to work with someone who had seen all sorts of body types of all ages, and who was more about wisdom, patience and a positive attitude. I was self-conscious about my gelatinous body. I'm in my 40s and had never imagined I'd get as giggly as I had. I've also had issues with my back since my early 20s, and did not want someone telling me to "work through the pain." Pain is not on my agenda. I also like the positive, encouraging and happy approach to training - yelling doesn't inspire me. Joan doesn't yell - she's more like a calm, upbeat cheerleader. In the past 7 months working with Joan twice a week, I have gained a perkier butt, firmer biceps and triceps, and best of all, a much stronger core. I can sit up from a horizontal position without any 'ug' as I used to do. I'd interviewed another trainer a while back, and while I knew with him that I'd have seen results very quickly, I was not ready for the level of involvement he would have had in my life. He wanted me to keep food journals and email them to him daily. He wanted me to work with him three times a week and do additional workouts without him totaling at *least* 5 workouts a week. He was also $15 more per session. I have a budget, and I have other things I want to do in my life, so this style wouldn't work for me. When I mentioned my weight to Joan, she said, "You're in charge of the fat, I'm in charge of the muscle." That's only fair. She cannot control what I eat or drink - only I can. I am the same weight I was 7 months ago, but things have been repositioned on my body. My stomach is much smaller, my waist more defined...anyway, I'm very happy. I still need to lose weight, but that's on me. Finally, to get an idea of the surroundings - Joan has a studio in North Beach (I drive from Marin to see her now). It's one room on the ground floor, with mirrors on opposing walls, a work-out bench, various hand weights, resistance bands, a couple short ballet bars, a Bosu, exercise balls of various sizes...but there are no machines. I am amazed - totally amazed - that even after 7 months she still gives me something new to do every single visit - not the whole workout - but she changes things up all the time.
