So happy I discovered Ground Zero Gym/Team Zero Gravity Fitness through my trusty MindBody Fitness class scheduling app. I saw an opening for the 7pm Aerial Yoga Strength/Stretch class so I did a cross check with Yelp to scope out the gym. The photos were a bit intimidating so I decided to call to make sure that it was a good fit for my level. I spoke with Taylor and she reassured me that there are mixed levels in the Aerial class and we can always adjust as needed. She was super sweet and welcoming so I felt more confident about my decision and booked my class through the MindBody app. The location of the gym is in the plaza behind the Trader Joe's plaza, on the second floor above Elvira's Grill. I arrived a little early since it was my first time and I wanted to make sure I had enough time to find the location and fill out any first timer's release forms. Ryan saw me coming in and he was super friendly and took me to Taylor for introductions. Just FYI, Ryan and Taylor are married and they run this place together. Such a beautiful couple!! I got to observe the previous team class finish up prior to my aerial class and it was really inspiring. All of the ladies looked amazing!! For anyone who is interested in a group fitness class for competition body building or just general lifestyle wellness, this seems to be an incredible choice in the area. First class is FREE!! Check it out for yourself!! Anyways, back to my lovely Aerial Yoga Strength/Stretch class. I love that the class size is limited to 5 students so Taylor is able to give everyone the attention and assistance they may need, especially for any of those who are new to aerial. That being said, I recommend making a reservation in advance to guarantee your spot. I also really like how before class time, Taylor went around and made sure that our silks were at a good level for our hips. When the silks are too high or too low it could hinder your poses or you can hit your head in inversions, so I really appreciate when a studio checks it. I have been to aerial classes, I have been to yoga classes and I have been to aerial yoga classes throughout the IE and OC. To me this class was definitely more focused on the fitness and aerial aspects, with the balance and grace of yoga. The class environment was unlike any other studios I have been to because it was quite in the open of the gym. I really enjoyed the high energy, upbeat environment while we practiced our aerial poses in the open space. Taylor started out the class with basic warm up stretches to help us prepare for the rigorous work out. I definitely felt challenged to push myself to my limit, but Taylor was very positive and encouraging the whole time. I feel like her instruction was very thorough and it was clear enough to help my get into my poses with minimal assistance. I was so proud of myself!! Towards the end of class, before our cocoon shavasana, Taylor even offered to help us take pictures in poses that we learned throughout class. Yay!! I love pictures!! It really helps me see my progress with my strength and flexibility. When I am able to see how I am doing, I make internal notes to myself on improvements for the future. I love the energy here and Taylor is so sweet and encouraging, her teaching style brings out the best in me. Currently the Aerial Yoga classes at only on Mondays and Wednesdays at 7pm and I am usually not in the area those nights, but I am hoping that their hours will expand in the future. Nevertheless I am still interested in other classes at this gym when time and my schedule permits. read more

I've been playing sports all of my life and had many coaches, and many great ones at that. I honestly believe Ryan is better than all of them combined. Pure and simple, you will not find anyone who cares more about his team and his athletes than he does. If you are looking to either step on stage, or bring your body to the next level, there is literally no need to do any more research, just join team Zero Gravity. If however, you are still on the fence for some reason, here's why Ryan is hands down the best coach, there is no close second. #1: Just look at his results: Ryan has coached hundreds of athletes (maybe even over thousand), and for those who put in the work, 100% of the time they get the results. Not even the results they wanted... results way better than they could've ever anticipated, this includes my own experience as well. #2: This IS Ryan's life. Ryan has a true love for the sport and an equivalent love for his athletes. I know that sounds corny, but it's 10000% true. He wants you to win just as much, if not even more than you do. In a sport as grueling as bodybuilding, Ryan knows exactly how to walk the fine line of telling you to step up your game, while simultaneously recognizing that this shit is hard. #3: Ryan's commitment level is off the charts. He has coached me over a span of two years now and I've never seen him miss any shows for his athletes. And I don't mean that he is available via text, no, I mean he literally attends the shows (from 8 AM until 11 PM) communicating with his athletes the entire time. If there is a conflict in his scheduled (two athletes on same day in different shows) he stays in full communication even when he is not physically there. #4: He makes it simple. Obviously, bodybuilding is difficult by nature, but Ryan makes it crazy simple to follow the process. Literally, the only way to not get results is to not follow his plan by trying to make it more complex than it needs to be. Here is what I did: I shut my mouth and did EVERYTHING Ryan said, EXACTLY when he told me to do it. Period. #5: You won't be hungry. This is not to speak negatively about other coaches out there, but the reality is many coaches starve their athletes. I'm guessing because they don't know the true science behind bodybuilding. Obviously this is not healthy, nor is it enjoyable. I NEVER felt hungry. So many guys I competed against said their coach only had them eating small portions of chicken and asparagus for months and they were constantly starving. Terrible. With Ryan and team Zero Gravity, not only do you not starve your face off, you can eat a ton of variety of food and large portions. #6: The cost is a no-brainer. For the results that you WILL get, the cost is nothing. Please don't be fooled by other lower cost options out there. You get what you pay for, and in my opinion, the cost for Team Zero Gravity is way under priced. Sure, you will be able to find other cheaper coaching programs, but WITHOUT the results. I have several friends who went to the low cost providers and it was a joke what they brought to the stage. They wasted their time and money. Don't make that mistake. I could write ten more pages on how much I massively respect and recommend Ryan and Team Zero Gravity, but as Ryan taught me "it's simple... just do what needs to be done." So if you have even an inch of desire to step on stage or build your body the right way, join the team immediately. read more

Zero Gravity Fitness is a gem!!!! I've been training with Tonnell instagram tru_fitness and he has helped me lose 20 pounds in less than two months! I'm not hungry and I'm stronger than ever.

I walked in weighing 202 and very insecure about my appearance. Everyone and I mean everyone is super friendly!!! read more

You have to make sure this is what you need BEFORE PAYMENT!! I enrolled online training in Mar and pairs 1200 for 12-week online program, that's 100 dollars per week. I saw all these good reviews and saw their videos on tiktok in China(they're expanding their online training in China) and I was really impressed. I suffered from depression and binge eating last year and went to consultations and in recovery state. I gained 20 pounds in one month. I have to admit I'm not a person that's strong inside otherwise I wouldn't pay a thousand dollars for an online training with all those diet recipes available on the Internet and meal delivery and free workout videos on YouTube. So, for the first day I was given a recipe. And that's it. I couldn't believe that's all they provide. I'm a graduated student just started working a month ago and with this price and service I nicely asked for a refund for the rest of 11 weeks(I didn't even ask for the first week though I received barely nothing). When I tried to make the payment I found their website not working properly and only able to make it through email. When I asked for refund they refused that and offered me to start over. I don't feel comfortable working with them again and refused that proposal and asked if we could work around and I can have partial refund. They didn't reply me for nearly a month and I sent another email to check. Quote: Yes we have been inconstant contact with you and have provided 100% services. I was like wuuuuuut? They haven't provided any service after I requested my refund and no refund was processed. This's the worst experience I've ever had. I'm being reasonable here I can accept they don't refund the first week or they ask for a termination fee. No, all they did is to leave it there. BE EXTREMELY CAREFUL if you want to enroll cuz NO REFUND GIVEN even if you're not satisfied and they don't warn you that when you make the payment. I have all emails with them that can prove I didn't exaggerate this and for the whole time I've been extremely nice and polite(much better than what they were like when they knew I wanted refund). Don't be fooled by the 5 star reviews. read more

My following review is for Cayden Riley individually, not necessarily Team Zero Gravity. Can't find the option to remove it so I thought it would be appropriate to update it accordingly... Can't say enough about this no-nonsense gym. I've been training with Cayden at Zero Gravity for 8 weeks now. Although I've been working out off and on for all of my adult life (I'm now 46) I can honestly say that I've never been in better shape. I'm stronger and have more endurance than ever before. Cayden's motivation to keep pushing myself, his knowledge in nutrition and expertise in training are priceless. Not to mention you just can't help but really like the guy! I've never been much of a morning person, but there's no better start to my days than walking out of Zero Gravity after my morning workouts. I'm hooked! read more

Been training with Cayden for about 3 months now, lost about 25 to 30 pounds. Come with your head straight, don't waste his or your own time. Set realistic goals, make sure that diet is really on point, you'll lose those inches or bulk up in no time. He is an excellent trainer, very knowledgeable in not only weight training but nutrition and everything else. read more

Coach Cayden goes above and beyond I've had multiple coaches before I came into contact with him at the grocery store great guy he gave me a friend session and ever sense then I have been a loyal client something that stands out to me the most is he gets back to me on txting regarding my meal plan The Coaches in the past lagged at it on this part .. grateful to have him and fer sure referring his expertise to all my friends it's definitely next level ! read more

Taylor is the best personal trainer! The training fits my need and goal. This gym is very clean in a nice neighborhood area. Nice and friendly member. Well worth it. read more

I've trained with Zero Gravity for 3 years. When I first started at Zero, I was a broke college student, with a dream of becoming Miss California. Ryan and Taylor worked with me, and got me in the best shape of my life... for that, I will be forever grateful. They knew nothing about be, but wanted to bless me, I seriously couldn't believe it. While training with them, I've won 3 Pageant titles. I HATE THE GYM, I seriously can't stress that enough..but when I workout at Zero, it doesn't feel like I'm at a gym. I'm surrounded by family. When I'm down and can't see the finish line, Ryan, Taylor, & the team are there to pick me up. I owe my life transformation to them. Life happens to me like the rest of us..& I gain and I lose, because of choices I've made, but through it all, they've never given up on me. So many trainers and gyms claim to know everything about fitness..but Zero Gravity is the real deal. Results don't lie, they're legit. read more

Ryan is hands down the best trainer I have ever worked with. You won't find a harder working guy in the industry. Worth every $ .

I personally don't compete, but I joined Zero Gravity to be around motivated people who like to train hard and live a healthy lifestyle under the watchful eye of the best coaches in the world. As a police officer who does a dangerous job on the daily, I need to have the balance of strength and endurance while having a professional appearance in uniform. After joining, I found myself training with others who, like myself, were from all walks of life including others officers, firefighters, professional athletes, and many professional and amateur competitors. I was pushed to the edge with the physical training and saw changes in myself I never thought was possible. Is this gym for everyone??? Honestly, I saw people that couldn't take the training couldn't take the intensity... and that is ok. If you're looking to be part of something special, part of a team that will carry you and make you better than you can ever imagine, sign up immediately and get ready to work! read more

Team Zero Gravity Fitness - Coach working one on one with his clients post routine.. - Trainers Near Me - Claremont, California

I started training with Ryan over 7 years ago I wanted to compete in women's physique and bodybuilding. Ryan is the ultimate coach, trainer, and his knowledge is remarkable the way he coaches is incredible he took my body to Heights I never thought was imaginable I started training when I was at the age of 53. I did 13 shows placed top 5 and every single show top 2 and first place. I highly recommend them Ryan and his beautiful wife Taylor who is also an ifbb pro as well- trains the women and to see these women of all ages come and reshape their body and their mind is absolutely phenomenal. Not only will you learn how to train properly you will learn how to eat clean and healthy the team camaraderie is also something that you will never find in another gym. If you're serious about training this is the only place you need to be!! All I can say is I am 60 years old now and I never in my life would have imagined that I would have the physique I have and be as healthy and strong as I am. Just to give you a little example back in March 2017 I had to have full hip replacement surgery my doctors were astounded how I got up off of the recovery bed and walked 50 feet without any help. My doctors put me in the 1% tile of recovered patients and he said that is all due to my physique and what I eat!! I owe all of this to Ryan read more

If your looking for a social hour, this is not the gym for you!. If you truly interested in changing your life style and increasing your overall health and fitness you will not find a better group of personal trainers.

I will try not to be over dramatic with my review, but I won't hold back. I hired Ryan Bentson through Zero Gravity Fitness to coach me 20 weeks in advance. While this guy who calls himself a coach has several Olympia athletes under his watch, he clearly did not have time for me. Firstly, he entices you to believe that he will get you to win a pro-card because of his political influence with the shows. But that is not why I hired him. I wanted to get my physique to a pro-level in my class. After making my advance payment for a long 20 week prep, Ryan would not return emails or respond to photo submittals unless I followed up over, and over again. The last 3 weeks prior to my show, Ryan fell off the face of the earth and did not respond to either my text messages or email progress photo submittals. After talking to other team members and past team members, apparently many had the same problem of Ryan not responding to them. How is this coaching? How can any coach drop the ball right before Peak Week and 3 weeks prior to a show? In speaking with other athletes, apparently they have not had the wherewithal to demand a refund for the services he failed to provide. I am in the process of commencing litigation personally against Ryan Bentson and Charles Bentson. If you have had a similar experience with Ryan Bentson, I will cover all legal fees and include you in the lawsuit if you contact me here on Yelp, FB, or messenger. Further, Zero Gravity Fitness is operating under a suspended entity in the state of California. You can do a business lookup in the State's website to verify. My case will go far beyond what I paid for ZGF services because I had to incur flight costs, hotel cost, car rental, fees to enter the Men's Physique Contest, etc. This all felt like a waste of time not having a coach by your side. Do not use Zero Gravity Fitness or Team Zero Gravity unless you are fine with having little to no feedback on your fitness progress. read more
