Faster Fitness

Love this small, local owned and operated gym! Marshall and David are knowledgeable and have years of experience transforming fitness into a manageable and enjoyable lifestyle. They also focus on nutrition and fueling your body with the nutrients it needs. Trainers (Josue you the mvp) are engaging, understand fitness, genuinely care about clients, and make working out fun! They always have challenges, send out messages through their app, and do their absolute best to make every member feel welcomed and a part of the community. Check them out on IG for workout tips, events, and new challenges!

Waited over 17 minutes past the appointment time to speak with their trainer. 5-10 mins late for an appointment, I can understand, but this was blatantly disrespectful of my time. There are better gyms as far as respect, cleanliness, look, smell, etc.

I recommend Faster Fitness to everyone I know in the St. Louis area that is serious about improving their health and fitness. This gym is the definition of a family and, more than that, you will see real results, real quick! I have always had a gym membership since I attended college but, like most people, I would walk around for an hour or two hitting some machines I knew how to use without seeing much results. When I started at Faster Fitness they helped me understand how exercise and nutrition work together to create results. I participated in one of their 6-week challenges and lost about 3.5% body fat and learned more about nutrition than I thought possible. I also made a ton of friends along the way. I move around the state a lot for work and I have never found a gym that even compares to FF. Their small group training environment gives you the motivation you need to get the most out of every workout. They are always looking for ways to improve and incorporate technology into their training program to help members see even greater results. Regardless of where you are at in your health and fitness journey, you can find a home here. Marshall, Greg, and their whole team will make you feel like part of the family on Day 1.

I used to be a member at Faster Fitness some years ago, life caused me to forgo renewing my membership at the time. After a few years I got back to a place physically I didn't like, and frankly never thought I'd be in again. I knew what worked for me in the past, Faster Fitness. So I joined a membership 5 weeks before their Spring 2017 6 week challenge and signed up for the challenge at the same time.

Faster Fitness is without a doubt the best and most effective workout routine I've ever done. Aside from the program being amazing - the nutrition guide and council you get as a member sets you up for success. It makes the things we've all heard about eating right, so simple it was literally impossible not to follow the plan! Nutrition is supremely important, and the tools Faster Fitness uses to ensure you not only follow the guidelines but truly understand them are fantastic! It's like a daily micro-learning session (which has recently been proven an extremely effective teaching method for adult learners I might add) of the nutrition principals.

Lastly, the staff at Faster Fitness - their energy and positivity is contagious! You can't help but enjoy coming to the gym, you actually look forward to it believe it or not! I think I speak for all that have become members when I say Faster Fitness is our CHEERS. I cannot say enough good things about Faster Fitness - unparalleled!

I saw an ad for the 6 week challenge on facebook and emailed to get more information. The challenge was definitely a shock to my system. I won't spoil the surprise in case anyone's thinking of doing it, but I'd never guessed I would be to do that intense of a change. I was glad that I did not learn what the diet portion of the challenge entailed until I had signed up and paid. Between the various aps, private facebook group and motivational emails, I really had enough support to drown out all the negativity from others. Greg and Marshall are amazing trainers, and I really appreciated the group personal training. Other fitness studios may call their classes "Group Personal training", but FF classes are actually like getting the amount of customization involved in a personal training session, but in a group. My form is not always the best, and every time I forgot proper form, I got a gentle reminder from the trainers. Other FF members are really welcoming. I loved having the data from the InBody, I could really see my progress. In 6 weeks,I lost 10 lbs, lost 13 lbs body fat, 6.3% body fat, and gained almost 2 lbs of muscle. I have to add, I already worked out 5-6 times a week, and I did 4 PT at FF and maybe 1 additional yoga class a week. I also have to add, I also have a few chronic injuries, but with their warmups, personal training and stretches, I did not get hurt at all over the 6 weeks. I definitely didn't think that I could do it, but I'm glad to find out with the help of FF, I was able to get drastic results in a short time. The end of the program also includes tips on how to sustain a healthy lifestyle.

I've been with this gym and have seen their program evolve since 2012. This is the only workout I've ever stuck with consistently. I've always had a gym membership and once in awhile had a personal trainer, but I've never been in good shape until joining Faster Fitness. I even tried to quit once in 2013 when work got busy and I was met with encouragement and a gentle nudge that giving up at the gym was not going to help my ability to deal with work stress (I got another job instead). This is truly a supportive and fun environment to get healthy, not just work out. They have assessments and accountability worked into the program, so you can track your progress and set goals to stay on track. Seeing Greg, Marshall and David in the morning is a game changer!! I can't say enough about Greg and how much his personality and support add to the program. He's someone I want to work hard for! By nature, he's upbeat and positive and you can't manufacture that. These guys know what they're doing and if you're serious about working on your overall fitness and health, this is the place to do it!

I've worked out with Marshall for 5+ years and he has changed my life. I had gained alot of weight and was not living healthy and then I met Marshall. As resistant as I was to exercise, Marshall continued to find ways to motivate and encourage me. He made working out something I actually looked forward to and soon I felt great. I had more energy, I was strong and learned how to eat for my body type for optimal health. He taugt me correct form so I wouldn't get hurt. Marshall wants his clients to feel and look better but he mostly wants us to be healthy and living life to its fullest. You won't find a more enthusiastic trainer or a more dedicated wellness coach. He really is awesome and I recommend him without reservation.

I was referred to Faster Fitness by a friend of mine. My current workouts had become stagnant, and I was clueless as to true nutrition. From the second I set foot into Faster Fitness things started to change. Not only was I introduced to a completely different way of working out, but it has become a day in day out learning experience as to what to eat and what not to eat. The staff take their time in explaining things, and the moment your body becomes acclimated with one workout they change it up. The gains I have seen as far as appearance and energy level in a very short time are phenomenal. I would highly recommend this business to anyone that is SERIOUS about getting into shape and caring for their body.
