I've been working out with Al for 1:1 sessions going on three years. I started because of a knee…read moreinjury and in addition to working on my knee he helped with overall strength and fitness. It is never boring, he must have 100 different ways to do push-ups, core work, and every other muscle. I am not a professional athlete, but very active and as a result occasionally get injured. So in addition to the knee, he helped me with back pain, shoulder pain, forearm pain, and tight hamstrings. I would recommend Athletic Edge if you've been working out for several years, just starting, or are coming back from an injury.

Every morning, I am greeted by Coach Al, Kory, and Rome and we are led through a warm-up, cardio, and strength circuit. The stations are explained carefully to emphasize proper form and the coaches provide feedback to correct our form to prevent injury. The cardio and strength circuit varies daily and modifications are provided. This is attached to a gymnastics center; therefore, we are able to utilize the whole gym such as the floor, trampoline, balance beams, and pit. I look forward to each class because I know that each workout will be exciting, dynamic, and challenging! I have never experienced such a friendly and warm-hearted fitness community who strives for individual and team building growth!

Micah really changed the routine and helped me get over the mental blocks. My lats and triceps are definitely sore, but it's a good ache--it means I did something right! Micah, thanks for changing the exercises! It really helped me realize I'm stronger than I thought.

My husband and I have been going to this gym for about three years now, and it's been such a solid…read morepart of our fitness journey. We started out doing CrossFit and eventually got into powerlifting, and this gym has supported us through every phase. The space is always clean, never too crowded, and the vibes are just right. They offer a bunch of classes--kickboxing, powerlifting coaching, and more--so there's something for everyone, no matter what you're into. Honestly, we've never even thought about checking out another gym. We feel super comfortable here, and after being here for so long, commercial gyms just don't cut it for us anymore. If you're looking for a gym with great equipment, a chill atmosphere, and awesome people, definitely check this place out. Highly recommend!

They have your class…read moretreadmills, step masters, rowing machines, ski ergs, a handful of squat racks, handful of powerlifting racks, handful of smith machines, several punching bags, treadmills where you move the tread itself, various machines, dumbbells and a gymnastics area. This place is an athlete's dream with the multiple resources they have going on and they had several new equipment for various activities. Come get your workouts done here while they blast classic rock music. The only drawback is that there is no fan or AC going on... We went when it was not busy and it was already quite stuffy, so cannot imagine how it would be when the gym is packed of people putting the pedal to the metal.

Why can't I give more than 5 stars??!…read more If you are like me and HATE working out, Lena is the personal trainer you never knew you needed. She provides a judgement-free environment with zero pressure from others because it's just you and her during the 1:1 sessions. She gives the right amount of push, positive reinforcement, and guidance so you can achieve your own goals. She is firm and demanding, but somehow gentle and understanding at the same time, too. She checks in to see how you're feeling at the start, multiple times during, and at the end of each session. She is attentive, provides clear instructions, models the movements, and is very open to modifying exercises and expectations based on what you personally need. I also love that her gym is smaller than a typical corporate gym. It has a cozier, less intimidating feel to it. Not to worry, though. Her gym is fully stocked and she has everything you need to achieve a full-body workout. In addition to a free consultation (5-10 min talk re: goals + 30 min workout), she offers single sessions or you can buy a package of sessions at a slight discount. In terms of scheduling, she's very accommodating. I've had to change my session to another day several times now and she was really great about squeezing me in on another day of the week. If you're on the fence about signing up, don't be. Lena is nothing like the personal trainer stereotypes out there. She's personable, approachable, knowledgeable, and encouraging. Do this for your future self; you won't regret it!

I've been training with Lena for 10 weeks now and the results have been amazing. I'm 69 and…read morerecovering from a heart procedure She's pushed me to build strength and stamina without ever pushing too far. She checks with me on my heart rate, keeps my form safe, and follows up after workouts with texts to make sure I'm doing well. The workouts fly by because she keeps you engaged and motivated, and by the end I'm drenched in sweat but feeling great. She's encouraging, but she also demands progress. Her gym is clean, private, well-equipped, and in a super convenient spot in Santa Clara San Jose border, near Sevens Creek and Winchester. I haven't felt this strong and healthy in years. I highly recommend her one-on-one training!

It allowed me to get an extra hour of a workout in during the week and now I'm hooked! Krav is a real world self-defense that makes me feel strong and prepares me for real life situations. ASD also offers many other classes and so many talented instructors! Coach Shayne has been a big influence on myself and my husband. He continues to help us learn proper fighting techniques. Andrea is an awesome coach who continues to amaze us! Amit, Troy, Chris, Sergey, Marziya, and Jason have all taught me so much in Krav. Ilya's Hyrox and Fighter Flow classes are fun and a great workout! He also has a cook book that explains easy and healthy recipes! Manny's Boot Camp/kickboxing classes are always intense and will leave you sore. James' DEKA class was creative, hard and definitely worth a try! My son has enjoyed the Kids Krav classes....thank you James, Andrea, Anh and Marziya for teaching the big group of kids! I love watching him come home and practice and share what he learned. We often compare what we are all doing in class during the week. I can't forget Neal, the owner! And Carrie at the front desk! They always make us feel welcome and at home! I joined the Locked In For Summer Challenge that they organized at ASD. It has helped me stay focused on my nutrition and fitness goals. And has helped me meet some new friends! Overall, ASD is a super special place. I'm so glad my family found it and I'd recommend it to anyone interested!

One of the instructors there recommended Field Fitness, and I've loved what I have found. I've mostly been taking classes with Josh and he's so motivating and supportive. I've got an arm injury and he's been great about providing alternatives for some exercises while keeping the flow of the class going for all. So impressive. There is no 'hard sell' at this place - which I really appreciate, and their endurance as a studio is there because they offer great programming and great product via the classes that they have. If your schedule means that you can only do infrequent or irregular classes, through to dedicated multi-times-a-week practice for strength, core, upper body and lower body work, you can do via the classes at this gym - so check it out!

Let me begin with this- Choice and suitability of fitness routines vary from person to person…read more Personally, this model didn't fit well with me. When it comes to fitness, the ideal way is to begin training slow and then gradually increase in intensity. In Xcel tribe the intensity is all time high irrespective of your level of fitness. You will be out of breath and left with sore muscles. But you may still underplay the body signals as there is just so much energy around in class. End result? You may be harming yourself in long run. So if you plan to join, be sure to listen to your body and not overdo things. There sure are pros (like good coaches and overall energetic vibe), but I realized this isn't something I am looking for. PS- Since this is a close knit community, you are likely to see all 5 star reviews. So don't blindly go by numbers. Go for the trial class, see if it is something that would work for you and then decide. There are those who liked it and there are those like me who didn't.
