Settle in for a long review...How does a guy who practically eats donuts for a living stay fit?…read moreThree letters: L8R I've worked with Jeff and Jenny for over two years and without hesitation recommend them to anyone looking to get fit, take their fitness to another level, or step onto the bodybuilding stage. Me, just I'm looking to stay fit while eating donuts, and they've more than helped me accomplish that! Will you do some cardio each day? You bet. Will you lift heavy things at the gym most days of the week? Count on it. Will you get a customized meal plan to help you meet your goals? Yup. Will you have extreme diets like cutting out all carbs and eating cubes of butter wrapped in bacon? Hell no. Will you see results? Absolutely, IF you trust the process and PUT IN THE WORK. Don't be intimidated by the big muscles, Jeff and Jenny are some of the most down to earth people you'll ever meet, and they're 100% dedicated to every one of their clients. If you're lucky, you'll get to work with one of their other coaches, and just know that Jeff and Jenn still review every client's plan. Stop listening to your neighbor who says she lost 80lbs in two weeks, stop buying whatever overnight miracle pill you see on TV, and stop trying the fad diets you see on social media. Instead, get in touch with Jeff and Jenny Later to make sustainable, healthy, long-lasting change to your health and wellness (and don't forget to eat donuts along the way)!

If your not on steroids, these guys can do NOTHING for you. I hired them, paid nearly $900,…read morefollowed their regimen, and after three months- NO RESULTS. ZERO! They had me at 2660 calories per day, eating 1 lb of steak a day (after being cooked) which is ridiculous, and cardio every day. Jeff will sell you his coaching program then immediately after you sign up, he hands you over to an amateur protege. I asked them why I wasn't at a lower caloric intake and their response is always, just give it time. They won't answer your phone calls but will make Vimeo videos and only text, so don't plan on talking on the phone with quick questions you might have after signing up. Jeff offers no substitutes or allows for flexible dieting, like a dinosaur, one size fits all approach. After hiring a real trainer/nutritionist they put me on a 1850 calorie diet and guess what happened! Got down to goal weight. Dont let theses guys take your money and leave you broke and with no results.

I don't like going to gyms because I often fell judged by younger and more fit patrons and staff. I've found here that I feel welcomed and supported. the exercises can be really hard but I feel a payoff. I haven't been there long enough to see a lot of change but I'm starting to see some. I enjoy going there and I feel like I'm improving myself both in strength and mentally. Great choice for me !

I've tried SO many different boutique gyms throughout Salt Lake City over the six years I've lived…read morehere and none of them have stuck. I've either gotten bored with the workouts or haven't felt motivated to continue going. I love lifting, but haven't been able to get into Crossfit, and other studios have been too cardio-focused for me personally. K Effect training has been the best thing for me - they mix up their workouts so I'm never bored, and they have the perfect mix of lifting days and cardio days. A new schedule is released every month, which keeps things fun and exciting. I started with K Effect for a 4-week challenge they were doing in February, and have stuck with them ever since. I honestly thought I was just going to do the challenge and then dip out and never come back again, but once I started going I realized I wasn't dreading my workouts like I usually did, I was actually looking forward to going and having a solid workout. The workouts are fun, challenging, and different every single class. They mix lifting with HIIT workouts - some workouts are lifting focused, others are cardio focused - and there's a great mix. They're also the perfect amount of time, and are typically about 45-50 minutes long. The community in this gym is also incredible. It's such a diverse mix of people and everyone is SO friendly and welcoming. It's always intimidating starting at a new gym, and I've never felt more welcome than I have been at K Effect. The coaches are amazing, the members are amazing - I love coming here. All of the coaches are so good at remembering everyone's names too - I don't know how they do it! If you're looking to step up your workouts, but tend to feel gym-timidation, check this place out!

If I could give this place and their shady practices zero Stars I would. The facility itself is…read morefine as a gym and actually has some pretty intense and fun hiit sessions. The problem is a douche name Coach Cam who lures you in with a promise of this free 28 day fitness challenge. He asks you what your goals are, for me it was being able to do a pull-up. He writes that down and creates a contract. But I thought it was free? you ask. Oh of course it is but we need a deposit so that you have skin in the game. Wtf? Of course you'll get it all back he promises but we really hope youll want to stick around. Fast forward 28 days and I'm still not able to do a pull-up. But guess, what that was part of the contract?! You can't do a pull up so we're going to keep your deposit. Are you kidding?! I demanded the return of my deposit and told him as much as I might like to join this gym I'm already a member at another gym like I had told you before we started and I'm not in a position to consider another membership until that one expires. "Do you really think that's fair" says coach cam. "You got to work out here for free." Um Yeah, that was the deal, you smarmy *$$. He refused to give me my money back. Literally said no. Thankfully American Express has my back and they immediately opened an investigation and returned my money. Beware of these gyms and their predatory practices. When a gym claims your workout is free, it should be free. Period. Sign a liability waiver but don't sign a fraudulent contract meant to take advantage of someone excited to try a new gym facility.

16+ years. That is how long I have been a client of Eliza James at her Boxing Is For Girls studio,…read morewhich is miraculous, because my previous pattern had been to go once or twice, maybe a maximum of two weeks, to the dozens of other gyms I have tried through the years. This place will become a part of your life, you will successfully integrate into this powerful community with shared lifetime goals involving much more than your health! As a emergency department physician in Northern California, and an officer/brigade field surgeon for the Army reserves with numerous Combat Zone deployments, and a single mom, and now the primary caregiver to my elderly mom, can I say that my time is extremely valuable, yet I am happy to say not one minute is wasted with Eliza. Even after not being able to make it in for several months, and suffering from severe deconditioning, after just two or three sessions with Eliza, my friends and family immediately notice the difference, the changes, that I'm back on track, with Eliza leading the way down the correct path!

I signed up for personal training with Eliza six weeks ago with a goal of getting stronger and more…read morefit. I needed someone to be accountable to beyond myself and I'd passed by the BIFG studio for years and was always impressed by Eliza's presence and her staying power in her community. Little did I know that I'd get so much more than a hard workout when I first entered her space. I don't often meet people as dynamic as Eliza. She's tough, but genuinely caring. She's curious, but a natural teacher. She pushes me while respecting where I am on my fitness journey. She lives her life very authentically and she emanates wonderful energy. She cares about everything and everyone, even the little insects that find their way into her space. (Seriously, she carries them out to safety, it's lovely.) I'd honestly give her 10 stars if it were an option. You won't regret becoming part of her community.

Really wanted to like this place, but unfortunately it left me underwhelmed. I dislike writing…read morenegative reviews and in fact never have, but it's important you know what you can be getting. It's already pricey at over $100 a week for an 8 week program that only gets you one nutrition session and one workout a week for a total of one hour. The first "nutritionist" I saw was a joke and recommended all the foods I had been telling him don't work for me to lose weight and clearly didn't have a true nutrition background and I lost no weight. A few weeks in they changed who I was seeing and I was never changed back. Turned out the first guy left and I was never notified. I like the second person who they placed me with a lot better, but as I was switched halfway through the program my new nutritionist/trainer never had any openings before 8 pm or that were convenient with my schedule. So I was paying $100 a week and not always being able to get in for appointments. For two of the appointments the wrong time was also communicated to me and I showed up and they weren't available. Ok one time, might have been my error, but twice definitely not as I've never had this problem with any other appointments. They then would say they'd reach out to reschedule and it would be days later before I heard something. I did call and talk to the owner and they credited me a few sessions from all of the back and forth and inconvenience, but one of those again had a time mixup. I finally just gave up trying to reschedule and cut my losses. Learn from my mistake and save your money and go somewhere else.

I really wanted to like Total Health and Fitness. While both my husband and I DID lose weight,…read morethere were a couple of things that I was unhappy with. PROS 1. We both lost weight. There is no doubt in my mind that macro and calorie counting works as long as you are disciplined and stick to a diet plan. THF sat us down and helped us outline a plan that worked best for us, including recipes. 2. The recipes are pretty tasty! (some trial and error required) 3. Flexible scheduling times. 4. Discount for paying upfront and purchasing multiple packages. 5. The provided binder was a wealth of information and a great place to compile and compare all of our stats and data. CONS 1. Their staff is inconsistent and very few of them have any actual qualifications. -The first "nutritionist" we worked with was the only one from the bunch that had any actual education on the matter. She was by far our favorite and the most helpful in terms of teaching us how to eat better and helped us tailor our meal plans to meet not only our physical needs, but also our medical needs. I had some pretty severe medical needs that we were trying to help control with a diet change, and she was the only one that seemed to take that seriously. - We had to frequently ask for services that were supposed to be regularly provided throughout the program (taping, body composition, weigh ins, etc). - Some of the staff were more frugal in their food recommendations than others. For example, one "nutritionist" that we saw was so into trendy food items that our monthly food budget skyrocketed, so we were spending close to $800 a month for 2 people. The other two "nutritionists" we had were more reasonable and had many cost-friendly alternatives, so we only ended up spending around $400 a month on food for 2 people. 2. Many of their recipes have instructional and caloric discrepancies. Counting calories is kind of a must when you are trying to lose weight, so it was frustrating to me that SO MANY of the recipes had stats listed that were very different from what was in the meal plan system. I had to downsize many of my meals to almost nothing in order to stay within my calorie and macro goals. I brought this issue up with several of the staff and received only a shrug. 3. It's EXPENSIVE, especially considering none of them are licensed nutritionists (the one we saw that actually was a licensed nutritionist ended up leaving partway through our second 12 week round). The cost would have been easier for us to swallow if their staff had better qualifications and training. In the end, we were still happy that we chose to use THF, as we learned a lot, lost some weight, and formed several healthy habits.

I came to Karve wanting to be more toned, become strong but not bulky, get better posture, and to have a workout that challenges me without being high-impact or rough on my joints.

It has also significantly increased my core strength-- it shows in the way I do other exercises, my posture, and how my clothes now fit better. Every day is a little bit different and each instructor has their own teaching style, so the workouts are never repetitive. The environment is so supportive and I always look forward to seeing familiar faces in class. I drive all the way from Provo to Lindon to attend these classes because they are simply that stellar. The owner Brooke is also really nice and she has done an incredible job creating the perfect workout environment.
