Dropped in from out of state while on a family vacation. Clean and organized facility and has all the equipment I needed for my programming (if you are powerlifting or Olympic weightlifting, this place has what you need). Customers/athletes always helpful and mindful of others (no judgment, just folks going about their business). Drop in rate is more than fair (paid way more in San Francisco and only needed the neglected power rack in the back of a globo gym, OMR is a god send). Hoping my next stop has a facility and owner just like this one!

Everything is cold there plus no jacuzzi or steam room like marina location Nice thing is that no one goes there so you have the place all to yourself I upgraded to 4 stars as the showers and ambient air are now much warmer but the shower heads still need to be replaced with a model that provides a decent shower . Like a speakman s 2252 Pool is colder than the marina branch . and it bugs me that since I go almost everyday I have to drive 15 hrs per month to marina so that I can use the steam room for my dust allergy . The pool area is very nice but they should have installed identical assets as the marina branch such as the steam room , jacuzzi and swim suit dryer machine

She would record me when THEY KNEW I HAD MENTAL HEALTH ISSUES but proceeded to treat me indifferent & uncomfortable. When I am placed in these situations, I will say dumb, stupid things & lose my temper. May have cursed but never cursed at anyone & when you told several different things & sometimes, they had bad days & said things uncool. My overall experience their went from fun times to being felt judged & nitpicked at. When I was out of shape & skinny things seemed fine but once I started to get in better shape & wanted my support for my aging body as a man....I'm told im wrong for this? Why is it anytime my life starts to get better that someone ruins it other than myself crashing & burning. So little support or encouragement. Overall, they did not provide me with the recovery to driving again....I SHOULD BE DRIVING AGAIN but physically UNABLE & was in this program for years. They just eventually tell you dont come back for some time & I regret going back. They don't even have a good gym culture, and they WERE SO FRIENDLY & misleading & then out of nowhere super strict. They left me feeling confused & upset many times over the years. They did not care about my mental health or overall goal to drive! Honesty wasted my time making friends that turned around to ruin my life like so many do. Learn to treat people with known mental health issues better & dont have a therapist pretend to be their friend just to get uncomfortable with things they said. Honestly, I should of never opened up with anyone that was not a Dr. for mental health. That was my biggest mistake.

Also Miguel was my personal trainer for 2+ years and I too was injured (shoulder) while training with him. Miguel wouldn't correct my form until I completed the each rep, according to him so he wouldn't distract me. None of the trainers spot you and they choose not too even if they're asked to. When I spoke to them about all of the above they ALL became hostile and argumentative and retaliated towards us. They're unprofessional people. They have an attitude of this is my business, my way, if you don't like it go elsewhere. They don't accept their wrong doing and most importantly don't appreciate their clients business per their own words. They're replaceable. Beware of this place!

I can't say enough good things about this gym and if I could give them 6 stars I would. I was…read morereally, really out of shape when I started here. It had been about a decade since I worked out daily. Many years ago, I was a devoted Pilates Coach/Ball Fitness Studios fan when I lived in Reno. And since then, I've never found a place I really loved or remained committed to. 2SA welcomed me and challenged me in ways I've never been challenged. I tried boxing and Piyo for the first time, loved both. Amanda's classes were great and she even ran over and held my hand doing lunges so I could get into the correct position. With pretty large class sizes, that really says a lot about the instructor. Most of her students had been with her for years, no other place in Monterey Bay has that kind of cult following this gym and its instructors have. Most people want to work out in a place where everyone looks like their ideal physique, and the people who attend this gym are definitely athletes. If you can get over your own insecurities and put in the work, you will love it here. Lastly, customer service is how it should be. Cancelling is easy. Signing up is easy. The monthly payment is low. There are no gimmicks or upselling or hassles. Just show up when you want to try a class and if you like it, join! Unfortunately with COVID I've been home doing Beachbody. I have a small child and can't make the drive over there for the foreseeable future. If I lived in Salinas, I'd be there in a heartbeat!

Finally, something that works! After years and years of investing my time and money in fad diets…read moreand commercial gyms, nothing worked for me until I started training with Coach Art. I am a busy working mom that has no time to train in the afternoons and evenings. His early morning workout schedule works perfectly for me. I started with little to no experience in lifting weights, interval training and martial arts. Despite training as a group, he was very accommodating and adjusted exercises to my limited abilities. His workouts are challenging but he knows how to push me without pushing me over the edge. I honestly didn't care for his combat cross-training class which I would skip from time to time. But now I'm totally addicted to it - especially when we train boxing! Since training with Art I've lost a total of 20 lbs. I'm stronger and more energetic than ever. Poor food choices have been my weakness all my life. However, with Art's guidance I have started to make healthier changes to my nutrition. The great results I'm seeing in my fitness tests along with the awesome members I train with have inspired me to make permanent changes to my lifestyle. I would recommend training at United Strength and Conditioning to anyone. If you've been struggling for results and are in need of some spark in your workout then I wouldn't hesitate to join the team.

I like United Strength And conditioning because I'm getting the exercise I need early in the morning so my day already feels accomplished, class size is small, and I'm getting the right amount of push to watch my diet. I also like that it's affordable. Since I've been working on muscle development I have only lost weight 8 lbs but my belly rolls are gone and I finally found my abs. If you are tired of falling short of developing a routine and would rather dish some duckets out to have maintain your routine, I'd recommend you give Couch Art a call, you won't be disappointed.

At this point, I do feel I have learned enough about weight training to not need a trainer, but I don't think I would push myself as hard if Tom weren't there saying "one more" over and over again. Love training here and I'm so excited to see how much stronger I will become!

Been going to this gym for some time now, and I must say it is great…read more Pros: There are no crowds, ample parking, the place is clean, the music is under your control and the few people there are usually very nice. The place has all the equipment I need (I mostly train with free weights) to work out hard. Tom, the owner is an excellent trainer with lots of knowledge to share. Cons: The location is somewhat hidden, the cost is higher than other gyms, no crowds (if you are into people watching), no showers. I am just a BIG fan of this place. The cost is a little high, but that just means that only people serious about working out go there. I would give this place a 4.5, but since that is not an option I will round up to a 5. In case you are wondering the -.5 would be for the bathrooms not having any shower stalls. Update (11-17-2009)** I stand by what I said before, I really liked working out here, but I was just on the receiving end of a 4 letter word laden tirade from the owner because I turned the tv off. This is something I was given permission to do, but the owner feels that pressing the power button on the tv "broke everything". I follow all the rules, re-racked my weights, wiped down when I was done, etc. I was a model member so it was completely out of the blue for him to call my house to cuss me out. So it's a great place to work out, just be aware you could be on the receiving end of a tongue lashing. It's up to you if you want to stick around after that, I for one am not.

I look and feel awesome and my clothing all fits. I do pinup modeling, so this was a lifesaver. The trainers, particularly Scott, are incredibly encouraging and supportive and you're able to reach them for support on nutrition and recovery. They are also proactive about reaching out to you so that you stay on track. They will make you meeting your goal their personal goal, so you're not going it alone. I started as a six week challenger, and while I did not meet my goal of 6% body fat loss, I chose to stay on to pursue my next fitness goal (not weight related), because I want to preserve my gain in muscle and strength. The cost per month is very reasonable for what is essentially small group training and access to the expertise of really great trainers. The gym is focused on functional strength, HIIT and Tabata style workouts that are a complete whole body workout in a short amount of time. Expect kettle bells, club bells, squats, and lots of body weight based exercises, along with a warmup and cool down, and assistance with a nutrition plan. They are expanding into striking classes and kids' programs as well. I dance ballet and practice yoga and was pleasantly surprised that I did not lose flexibility during my challenge and have better structural support in general for the demands of the disciplines. I'm able to balance better and longer, and lift and hold my legs higher because of this work. They have two locations: one in Monterey and one in Toro Park. No showers, but otherwise well appointed. You're able to reserve classes ahead of time using their push press app. If you're ready for a reset, just sign up for classes. It's a nice community and they'll take care of you and teach you to take care of yourself.
