Alejandro is as good as it gets, he is a grade A trainer with a ton of motivation and knowledge…read more When working-out with Alejandro, he focuses on my needs according to the goals I would like to reach. I mainly work with him for building more muscle and improve balance, every session with him is unique to what body part we are focusing on. I find that he takes what ever i express with to him into account but still making sure I am executing exercises safely to prevent injury. Alejandro is also really flexible with my schedule, we find time during some crazy weeks and with his two locations as well as out door meetings, there is always a place and a time for a convenient work out. He seems to really cater to what ever is easiest for me. He is a great trainer and I would suggest him to anyone!!

I had a chance to try a few sessions with Alex and was very impressed with his abilities and focus…read more I'm no gym rat, but I would like to get a feel for simple exercises I can do to stay fit and use proper physics. Alex was certainly competent and he kept a good eye on my posture and listened well. He's a young guy but when he worked with me I knew he was serious about his business. The gym is a bit crowded at times and not very "upscale," but it's well stocked and Alex gave me good introductions to exercises that really felt like I could do them at home and not hurt myself. I'd give him a rating of about 4 on the coaching as he still has a few rough spots that I know he'll grow into as he matures at this career. But I'm giving him a solid 5 because he does what few coaches seem to do- he really knows how to give an awesome massage. When I has head or neck pain, he laid me down on the table and worked me deep and I was blown away by his talent. I told him he should consider physical therapy or Chiropractic as a career, he really has great hands. So overall I think the package he offers is really beyond your typical "GO FER IT" meathead coaching. His hourly rate is beyond what I can currently handle, but I think anyone with the finances to try a session or two with him will appreciate his patience and ideas. And be damn sure to have a few muscle complaints ready so he puts you on the table, damn good massage!

We came to him with a unique request, but he's a master of finding solutions uniquely suited to your needs.

Hard to say not knowing every trainer in the city but I'd say it's probably true. I started out in 1-on-1 training sessions with Sebastian to get some of the basics down and then moved into group sessions which are both more economical and more fun, training with others. Sebastian has an awesome location in Noe valley where we exercise outdoors with views of the city and a killer set of steps on which to torture ourselves. I'm 2 days away from my first Olympic Triathlon which I don't think I'd be ready for without Sebastian. He helped me dig out from 10 years behind a computer screen and get back into shape in just a few months and I'm confident he'll help me reach my aggressive fitness goals over the next 6-12 months. Come work out with us, it's fun!

I wasn't planning on joining a boxing gym, but my brother and his son kept telling me to try Solis…read moreBoxing--and I'm really glad I listened. From day one, I felt welcomed. The gym has everything you need: plenty of space, top-quality bags, and a setup that works for all levels. Whether you're brand new or experienced, you can train comfortably and actually improve. Fernando is a hidden gem in South San Francisco. What he's doing for the community is powerful--you can tell he genuinely cares and is building something bigger than just a gym. Shoutout to the coaches--Erica, Danny, CT, and Leon. They're all supportive, knowledgeable, and push you to get better every session. What I like most is the environment. You see men, women, kids, and all skill levels training together, all with the same goal: to improve. Definitely recommend if you're looking for a real boxing gym with a strong community.

From day one, the environment has been welcoming, motivating, and full of positive energy. All of the coaches -- Cesar, Danny, and Erica -- are amazing to work with and truly care about helping everyone improve, no matter their skill level. A special thank you to Fernando -- he is incredibly knowledgeable and has taught me so much about the fundamentals of boxing. You can tell he's passionate about what he does and genuinely wants to see people grow both inside and outside the gym. Since joining, I've gone from 185 lbs to 155 lbs, and beyond the physical transformation, I've also seen a huge boost in my son Max's confidence, which means a lot to me as a parent. This gym is more than just a place to train -- it's a community. We're very grateful to be a part of it. Thank you, Fernando and the whole Solis Boxing team!

There is no one greater than Roberto! I have been at World Gym since it originally opened (over 20…read moreyears) and when it came time to select a personal trainer, I looked around the gym, and saw who was the most attentive to their clients, not chatty, and whose clients actually shook their hand when they were done, and most important how long they kept their clients. I chose Roberto, because he was the answer to all those questions, and it was one of the best decisions I have made! If you had a bad day, he will get your mind focused, and you leave the gym knowing you accomplished something and you completely forgot what may have ruined your day. He is knowledgeable, and is truly client focused, and it is truly a privilege to have him as a trainer and a friend!!

As a former personal trainer myself, Juan's the trainer I trust…read more He's knowledgeable, well prepared, thorough, and personable. Lil walk through of my first experience with Juan. Ahead of our workout, Juan sent over a pre-session video explaining concepts around programming and rpe, which was super insightful. Had me feeling really prepared and ready to dive in. And when we hopped into the session, the hands on, in-person guidance was critical for me as well. I'm a visual learner most of the time, and when it comes to training, I tend to be someone who needs someone to take that even further, i.e. really walk me through things themselves. Basically hand hold me through all the bits and pieces. Juan was very accommodating on that front. Lastly, I loved not just the explanation/guidance around technique/how to do things properly, but context around why we should do things in those ways. Made things we were doing make sense. Coming out of our session, I felt confident in the lift, and I can say using Juan's methods I'd be able to replicate and apply his coaching throughout my own/individual training sessions, enabling me to see progress where I'm currently looking to improve. I'd highly recommend Juan for someone who is just looking to get into a fitness regimen, or for someone who's got years of experience in the gym. He's my guy!
