3 months ago, I challenged myself to do something totally crazy - attempt something no one who…read moreknows me would expect - something that, quite frankly, seemed scary to me. I got a personal trainer. With two little ones, I decided it's time I get healthier. But, what do I know about fitness?! From day 1 - I was put at ease by Nick. He met with me, talked to me about my goals and discussed what sort of options were available to me. He never once made me feel like it was a hard sell - more, he was here to answer my questions and encourage me. Most importantly, he assured me that this wasn't going to be something that was going to drive me away. The team was going to work with me at my pace. I decided I'd go three mornings a week - totally crazy, right?! Now, I work with Vince three early mornings a week. Vince is awesome! He's fun to work with, super knowledgeable - always taking the time to explain things to me. And, most importantly, he's encouraging. I'm nowhere NEAR as advanced as some of the people I see, but Vince makes me feel like I have a place there. Just a few months ago, I would have NEVER thought you'd EVER find me in a gym. Now, I look forward to going!

I have walked by this place a couple of times, and though I have a busy day today I thought I would…read morestop in just to ask if there was any kind of pamphlets with information. The person at the front desk was so wildly rude that I would never recommend this place to anyone. First, I was just standing at the door looking around and he told me bruskly to scan in. I told him I was new and then he just jumped in and said well I'll make time to give you a tour. I said I don't actually have time for that today, do you have any literature? Then he said no, and I don't have time for you. What business says I don't have time for you? I literally was considering changing gyms because of the 24 hours option. I can't meet the demands of your front desk representative on the spot therefore I'm not a good potential customer? I'm insulted when I walk in the door? Literally I have never been so insulted as a potential new customer in my entire life.

I started training with Melanie November of 2016. After one of previous personal trainers left…read moreBakar Fitness I tried a few people before finding Melanie. Melanie's profile caught my eye on the website of Bakar fitness. I have always been on the petite side naturally and one of my goals was to be able to gain muscle and be strong. I never thought it was possible for me to be very strong being a 5'3 and naturally skinny person. Melanie definitely proved me wrong! My proudest moment was when I was able to deadlift 185lbs (I was myself 107lbs). While the number of pounds gained/lost definitely shows progress and reflects great milestones in one's personal health journey, training with Melanie has helped me look at health beyond numbers. Training with Melanie has had cascading positive effects in my life. I have become more disciplined when it comes to my health which in turn has improved my diet, reduced my anxiety, helped with my insomnia. Melanie is definitely unique in her approach. I have had several trainers where training means 1 hour of working out with them every week. Melanie is not your average trainer. She cares deeply about her clients and goes above and beyond for them. Outside of our 1 hour of training, to give an example of how Melanie came through as a coach for me - She gave me a nutritional program and kept me accountable. I broke my wrist from a bike ride; Mel helped me train my lower body in isolation for multiple months which helped me stay healthy physically and emotionally. I also had a shoulder surgery from a sports injury. I experienced a lot of atrophy and stiffness after the surgery. Melanie has supported me over the last 2 years to build back my strength and range of motion. I can do pull ups again! I have gained a lot of strength and muscle with her programs. Melanie is not a trainer that just cares about the number of pounds dropped/gained or to just get you high numbers for squats or deadlifts. She is very cognizant of injuries, she puts a lot of focus on conditioning and stretching and taking care of your body like it is a temple.She is extremely educated about anatomy. These qualities differentiates Melanie's programs from just another personal training experience. People often think having a personal trainer is not worth the money. Why pay someone when you can google exercises/programs. Having done my share of googling programs and investing in a personal trainer like Melanie, I can definitely say I am better off with Melanie. I look at health differently now and investing in having an expert like Melanie has definitely been the right choice and the returns have been more than worth it.

Coach Melanie is da best (I live in Hawaii now)! Whether in person or virtual she is amazing!…read more Always supporting and helping you progress to meet your fitness, health and wellness goals! She is knowledgeable, non judgmental, kind and tailors the training for me! She always takes into account my aches , pains, post surgical condition, schedule, events, nutrition - you name it - Coach Melanie has always made adjustments that help me in my journey. I am so impressed by her! I met Coach Melanie at the UCSF Bakar Fitness Center when I barely exercised after a cervical spine surgery years ago. I was having back and nerve pain and I hadn't done a triathlon or run in eons, couldn't do a push-up and didn't exercise regularly. After working with Coach Melanie I strength train consistently ( super important for us all!), completed the sprint distance Honolulu triathlon, a couple of 10k's and few metric century rides and am on my way to more! My goal is to one day complete the iron- person distance tri and if anyone can help me get there it's Coach Melanie. We talk over nutrition I even meal prep now - not something I did before. I've had a few trainers over the years but Coach Melanie is the absolute best! I also really respect her values and am impressed by her own health, wellness and fitness journey. She's a fantastic person! Start training with Coach Melanie now to progress in your journey - no matter your level. You'll not regret it

I own my own business, work full time and oversee multiple side contracts. I don't have the energy…read moreand oomph I used to when training by myself - discipline in the gym is hard enough to come by when your plate is full of work endeavors and you're pushing 16hr days. I've been working with Felton for the past few months and I'm loving it. My endurance and strength are increasing; I've a lot more energy; I've lost several pounds of fat at a rate that still allows some flexibility for those extra hard days/weeks when nothing seems to go right (or everything goes right and you want to celebrate). Felton knows his shit. He's motivating, encouraging where he needs to be, and an amazing accountability partner. He's very vested in your fitness success, whatever that means to you.

I've tried to better myself for years, but I never followed through. When I found Felton, I was at…read moremy highest weight and I knew I was in for a change. I've been working with him for about a year now and no matter what my situation is (not feeling well, family problems, etc) he is very understanding and pushes me even when I don't want to work out. I'm not close to being done getting myself in shape, but Felton has taught me how to treat myself better with food and exercise. I always look forward to working with him and I know I won't stop anytime soon.

One of the hardest realizations that a disabled veteran has to make is waking up one day in your…read more40's and realizing that you have an additional 150 pounds on your body. You think to yourself "how did I end up in this bad of shape". As a young adult in the military, I knew all about physical fitness and loved the outdoor activities and exercise that came with the responsibility of being in the service. Due to my disability, being mobile and active has not been a part of my daily routine for years. I have tried many gyms and a few personal trainers in the past, but none have met or exceeded my expectations the way that Grant Nelson has. When I first met Grant, I had severe knee pain and high blood pressure. During my time with Grant my blood pressure has lowered by a substantial amount which has allowed me to discontinue my daily medications. My knee pain has improved to the point where I can now climb stairs normally, and I am pain free on most days. I have lost 24 pounds in 3 months. He is a caring, cheerful, professional. He explains that my workout is different from any of his other clients because of my fitness level. My workout has been tailored for me. He coaches me on nutrition, fitness, wellness, and overall health. After several bad experiences with personal trainers, I was determined that I was only going to use the first three sessions offered by Boom Fitness to learn how to use the exercise machines properly and be done. Grant has made me a believer on how a caring and passionate personal trainer can change someone's life and provide stability and support for my well-being. Thank you Grant, I am very grateful.

Sunday around 10:00am at Crunch Fitness Beaverton was one of the most unprofessional experiences…read moreI've seen in a gym. A manager handled a simple membership dues issue by yelling across the entire gym floor that my partner "could not work out until a fee was paid." This was done loudly, publicly, and with zero respect. My partner and I are both long-time Crunch members, and no one should be treated like that over a billing question. It was embarrassing to watch and even worse to experience. Situations like that should be handled privately and professionally, not broadcast across a room full of people. What made it more concerning is that employees mentioned this manager has a pattern of yelling at staff as well. If that is true, it is a serious culture problem, not just a one-time mistake. Crunch promotes a welcoming environment, but this was the exact opposite. I will be following up with management directly, but this needs to be addressed immediately. No member or employee should be treated this way.

After touring the gyms I came away with the impression that Stafford was by far the best gym in the area. The staff is superb and the gym and equipment are clean. None of that terrible "gym" smell that you often get at the gyms as they age. They also do an excellent job at making sure there aren't so many members in the gym that there are long wait times to use the equipment.

Overall review: This is a nice upscale gym/gym experience and the only real option for those who…read moreare looking for that upgraded feel in the SE portion of the metro area. I have been a member for about 6 months and really have enjoyed my time. Pros: -Women's locker room doesn't feel super dated. That was honestly a big reason I went with this gym, it was one of the few with a sauna/steam room that weren't disgusting. -Equipment/facility is generally in good condition and clearly proper upkeep is done. -Staff is kind and instructors seem to really care. Special shout out to Genevieve and Janet! -Yoga/pilates room is new and beautiful -This is a bit of a silly one but I love the room that used to be for bikes is now available for those who want a quieter space to work out if the other room has a class going on. Cons: -The class options for before/after normal work hours are incredibly limited. I am more of a class person and have been consistently disappointed with how few options there are. Generally, I think the gym caters to retirees/those who don't work a traditional 9-5 schedule. -Gym area is rather small. This definitely is more of a tennis club and the footprint of the area with fitness equipment is small in comparison to other gyms in the area. I have never had too much trouble waiting for equipment but when it's busy, it can feel cramped.
