I went to Brian to begin my fitness journey with the goal of getting bigger. He started my program off slowly to ensure that I get the form correct before going to heavier weights. He closely pays attention to how you perform your exercises, areas that you're struggling with, and guides you through ways to improve it. During my time with him, I injured my shoulder from a work event and he was able to alter/switch my exercises so that it wouldn't impact the injury while it was healing. He is incredibly knowledgeable with the exercises and the areas that it is working out. Brian is incredibly personable, motivational, and down to earth. I only saw him for three months and would've continued with him if I didn't have to move for work.

Working out with Joey has been a LIFE-CHANGING experience to me! Joey is FUN, PATIENT,…read moreDETAIL-ORIENTED and most importantly, he genuinely cares about helping me achieve my fitness goals. I am a working mom with a toddler boy. After a day of juggling between child care and work, exercising was the last thing I wanted to do. I was tired, unmotivated and depressed by my postpartum body. Through a good friend's strong recommendation, I started working with Joey 6 months ago, and that was the best decision I've made in 2022! Here is why: 1. Joey's 1:1 fitness sessions are tailored to each client. I look forward to going to his gym every week because Joey never repeats himself. He is like a magician who assembles various workout exercises and makes them fun and challenging. 2. His women's group sessions are full of positive energy. We support each other through tough cardio workouts. Many of Joey's clients became friends after working out at his gym. 3. Joey always makes sure I know the science behind each workout exercise so that not only I know how to do it correctly but also which muscle group(s) he wants me to focus on. 4. Joey knows exactly when to encourage me to challenge myself and when to let me take a break. 5. Joey is super approachable and he has a great sense of humor! Feeling good about myself and motivated to challenge myself to another level, I have already joined Joey's Fitness Challenge in January. If you are looking for a personal trainer, please give Joey a call. It'd be the best New Year gift to yourself because you deserve the best!

I have been training with Joey 4 times a week in both morning group classes and private sessions…read morefor over a year. As you can see from the before and after picture, my body has completely transformed. Not only that, I'm feeling happier and more energetic everyday. I found Joey two years after I gave birth to my second baby. Different from my first postpartum experience, the journey of losing weight the second time was a lot harder than the first time. I guess aging started to take a toll on my body, too. Intending to quickly get in shape, I first resorted to what I was familiar with - dieting, intermittent fasting, moderate exercise (mainly cardo such as jogging and swimming), but I just didn't see my body change much. Around that time, I started doing research and gradually came to conclusion that I probably needed strength training to build muscles, so I can develop a faster metabolism that will benefit me in the long run. I interviewed a few trainers and finally settled with Joey. One year later, I can confidently say I'm in the best shape of my life and I have only Joey to thank for. Here are a few things that really set Joey Speakes Fitness apart from others. First, Joey's integrated approach is sensible, balanced and conducive to his client's long-term health goal. He doesn't sell you a quick fast-loss scheme that's either unrealistic or comes at the expense of your long term goal. He's there to build you as a person from the get go. From the very first session, Joey has emphasized on building a sustainable lifestyle so not only can I lose fat efficiently but also maintain my progress. He has been advising me on the exact calorie intake and macro nutrients percentage. He also emphasizes on a balanced diet which includes healthy carbs and healthy fat. I used to try to cut sugar completely out of my diet and I was MISERABLE. Now I'm eating healthy and also eating what I actually like to eat, never feeling deprived. Though his gentle approach focuses on the big picture and long-term benefits, it still has delivered great results. So far, I've dropped all my baby weight and have become leaner and toner than ever. Also, I've started to develop a curve on my body. I always think I have a cute face but my body is just a typical Asian girl's body, square and straight, with lots of skinny fat, but I guess I was wrong. I could actually have some attractive curves, too. :) Second, Joey actually pays attention to you and gives really clever cues. You may think, duh! Of course a trainer pays attention to his clients. Let me tell you! No no. That's not true at all. At my previous gym, you often see trainers check their phones or pretending watching their client's moves while their mind is somewhere else. Joey is different. He actually cares. He watches your every move closely and makes sure the correct muscle groups are being engaged. He notices when your knees go inward instead of pushing outward. He corrects your back shoulder curve when it's flat. He often asks me "where are you feeling it?" If my answers show that I'm not engaging the right muscles, he would stop me, having me try something different on the spot until I feel the right muscles and then go back to the original exercises. Also, his direction cues are on point. For example, he would ask me to push the soles of my feet down firmly to feel my hamstrings. I think his clear explanations derive from decades of experience in the fitness and sports field. It really shows in the gym. Last but not least, Joey makes working out extremely fun. Training with Joey is like opening a box of chocolate. You never know what kind of exercises you'll get for that day. He mixes cardio with weight training, boxing with jump ropes, disciplines and encouragement. For his group classes, you see sweat, but you also hear laughter, lots of it. Girls are simply having a great time working hard. Before Joey, I used to do the "7 minute workout" series at home but it was always a drag. Time felt passing slowly, too slowly. But the experience with Joey is quite the opposite. Usually, when he tells me "this is your last set", I feel disappointed that the session is almost over. Time really feels like flying when I train with Joey. I know I've written a lot and I'll stop here. :) If there's one thing I want you to walk away with here, it's that the most valuable assets we have in life are our body and our mind. I do lots of meditation for my mind and now I'm investing in my body. Please give Joey Speakes Fitness a try and training with him can be one of the best gifts you can ever give to yourself.F

When The "Safer At Home" directive was issued to the city of Los Angeles to stop the spread of the…read morecoronavirus, I had just left my former gym and needed a new place to exercise. I was fortunate to have won a 90 day membership to 1A Fitness. Although all gyms in the city where ordered to close for in-person workouts, 1A Fitness was offering an at-home fitness challenge. The gym owner, Kevin was very proactive and adaptive to all the changes taking place during the quarantine. He instituted an online program that provided multiple classes to be taken via Zoom. Regardless of your home gym equipment, one could take part in the workouts. Kevin along with his fellow coaches divided up the 1A Fitness members and made sure to check in weekly on our progress. Kevin, Monica, & Justin made sure to see to it that we were all exercising daily, eating properly, hydrating, and getting enough sleep. As the pandemic wore on into the spring and summer, Kevin slowly re-opened the gym to accommodate up to four members in the gym at a time for one hour classes. Each member was given their own space & equipment to exercise with. As conditions improved, Kevin opened the parking lot for outdoor workouts with the same standard of each member having their own workout space and equipment. At all times, I always felt safe and confident in the environment that Kevin fostered. He made sure all members had properly cleaned equipment to work with and that the gym was kept clean too. I especially appreciated the fact that Kevin took the time to get to know me and my goals. I always felt confident in his instruction and the workouts he programmed. Although I was only a member for 3 months, I very much felt a part of the 1A Fitness community and look forward to when I can rejoin the gym again.

They really make sure that they don't just overload you with weight. They want to make sure that your form is correct and will size you up with their recommended weight. A typical workout at their gym will include a warm-up (that'll make you feel like it's already a workout...lol), a strength portion, and a metcon (metabolic conditioning). Classes will run about an hour. Another great thing to mention is that their classes have no more than 8 students per hour. They have classes at 6am, 7am, 8:30am, 4pm, 5pm, 6pm, and 7pm. Location is also great as it's located right in the heart of Downtown Arcadia! If you're looking for a gym in the area, definitely give this place a try!

UPDATE - AUGUST 2025…read more Over four years and 500+ sessions later, I can say with confidence: Reason Fitness is still the last stop on the road to better health and real results. I've dropped into many CF gyms while traveling, and it's always a relief--and a joy--to come back to Reason. The coaching here is next level. (Kara, Luke, Ed, Lauren to name a few...) Since my original review, these standout coaches helped transform my son into a serious athlete and, ultimately, a United States Air Force Academy appointee. Special shoutout to Coach Ed, who played a key role in getting him physically prepped for the intense USAFA requirements. I'm proudly part of the 5:30 AM crew (the finest hour, in my humble opinion). But no matter when you go, the community is welcoming, down-to-earth, and fun to work out with. One of Reason's true strengths is their ability to attract people who are ready to do the work--and to gently filter out those who aren't quite there yet. They also have a gift for hiring coaches who are not only highly skilled but also genuinely enjoyable to be around. Reason works with you, 1-on-1, to map out a plan that fits your goals--whether that's strength, weight loss, mobility, or just feeling better in your skin. You'll find all shapes, sizes, and fitness levels here. This is not a mirror-lined vanity factory. No egos. No robots. Just people doing the work. If you're serious about making a change--and want a place that will meet you where you are but won't let you stay there--Reason is it.
