If you want trainers that not only care about the work you put in the gym, but the fuel you put inside your body outside of the gym, this is your place.
I've done "big box" gyms, who only care about the bottom line. I've done mass bootcamps, 30+ people and 1 trainer which do not provide 1:1 attention. This place doesn't up-sell you, there is no crazy add-on; it provides 1:1, small group classes, and mini-bootcamps. The best part is that the owners have hired trainers that actually care about your progress and your fitness goals.
I train with LJ and Camille and they are absolutely amazing! LJ makes my workouts fun (on no conditions have I ever thought working out was "fun") but they are with him! He encourages me with each week that I progress to push myself to do even better than last week. Camille is the kindest, sweetest, most motivational trainer I have ever met. She truly listens to you, and customizes the workouts to meet your needs. You know sometimes when something seems impossible? And you trap yourself inside your own head, thinking you can't do it? Camille pulls you out of that dark place, and helps you understand what your body is capable of. She has gotten me started on a whole new way of looking at my nutrition, and understanding that you truly can't "out exercise a bad diet!" On Saturdays she offers a bootcamp, which is always new, fun, and an insanely intense circuit.
The small environment allows you to get to know the "regulars" who are all very kind and encouraging. There isn't the random "bro" in the corner throwing his weights on the ground, screaming for all to hear, like you see in the big places. Rather, everyone is working on their own stations, pushing their own limits, and encouraging one another when something gets tough.
I am so grateful I found Scott, Ron, Camille & LJ at Underground Fitness. I've been coming here since April, and I've been able to push myself further than I ever thought possible. I leave every session feeling like I got my booty kicked, but with a new strength and confidence to tackle my day.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Sabrina S.Phoenix, AZ05Jun 15, 2023
I was interested in their 63 day challenge, but I needed to know the price. They wanted me to come in for a consult, but if I couldn't afford the price, it would just waste their time and mine. I asked for just a ballpark figure, just something to go on to make sure I could afford it. But, no dice. Apparently this information is not known by those who communicate with you. All communication was done by text; I'd rather speak to someone instead of texting. So, hence the 2 Star review. Just give me a price!!!! When a company won't give me a price, that tells me they're hiding something.

I love training here. I've been coming here for over a year and I have never been in this good of shape. I have gained muscle and and strength I never thought I would have. David Forbes is the best and every session he pushes us to be our best. This is what I love. I wouldn't be able to do the things I can do with out this gym.

I used to be a member here, and my coach was really good. I quit going at the start of the pandemic and worked out at home. I wanted to sign back up but the owner was super weird and creepy when my husband and I visited, and tried to to shame me for not writing a five-paragraph essay in this very strange intake form explaining the reasons for my goals that he'd sent a few hours before the appointment. The owner also kept telling me I didn't show up when I was a past member (untrue, and I have all the stats in my fitness app to prove it) and seemed to be giving an elaborate spiel because (we guess) they raised their prices even higher and had to find a way to justify it. (We don't know for sure if it was due to a price raise because we left before we got the sales pitch, since were so weirded out by the vibes and pressure and weirdness that we left shortly after the owner told me I "wasn't ready" to join the gym I'd already been a member of and asked my husband if he wanted to join). For the past year I've been driving by this gym multiple times a week on the way to my NEW gym and am really glad I dodged the bullet. The description of how the program had changed definitely raised both of our hackles and seemed more cult-like than just a place to go and get a good workout in, which explains why they try to break down people wanting to sign up and berate them over not filling out a form the way they want.

Where do I start! Before Underground Fitness I was in a very unstructured place with my health and fitness. I thought I had the right idea and was on the right path BUT none of my efforts were breeding any results. Just maintaining! I knew I needed something and a regular gym was not going to cut it with my health/fitness ignorance and misconceptions. So I sought out a personal trainer and of course funds were my first concern but I have spent money on fast food in 2 months in what I I swore was to much but nonetheless I took a leap of faith and through my personal training with Daniel and my coaching with Ron I was able to see/feel a change. This time was different I actually took action and was supported with every step! I'm losing weight, gaining muscle, mental clarity, and making a lifestyle change not just a FAD! Im running with my my three kids and making health dinner options for everybody and have been inspired to help others. So thankful for this place!!!!

I joined Underground Fitness in the beginning of October 2020 to lose weight and get toned again. My trainer has been Kelsey and Ron has provided me with weekly nutritional guidance. I started the program at 221 pounds. After two months of working with them, I'm done to 201 pounds. The exercises are challenging, but not overwhelming. Kelsey has done a fantastic job of constantly changing my exercise routine; I new do the same sets of exercises day-to-day. I'm amazed how fast my one hour sessions go. Kelsey keeps me engaged during it session that, before I know it, the hour is up. Ron has done a remarkable job of guiding my nutritional habits. I've been so pleased with them that I signed up for another two months to keep my momentum going.
When I first started, Ron spent a good hour with me discussing my fitness goals, medical history, and past workout history. From there he was able to extrapolate a general outline that Kelsey has used to create my daily workout routines.
As they're told me, it took a long time to gain the weight, and so it takes time to lose the weight. I've pretty much averaged loosing two to three pounds each week. I highly recommend Underground Fitness to anyone who are serious about their health and wanting to achieve their fitness goals.Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0Business owner information

Working with you has been refreshing and inspiring! Your progress is visible every week. Keep up the good work. Thank you for the kind words and taking the time to write them. We appreciate you.

4 star rating due to cost of personal training(65-85$). Even with a package deal the price is still too steep.
I have a friend that trains there and said price depends on who you talk to.
The trainer Vickie deserves 5stars. She put me through a workout that addressed my needs and it flat out kicked my butt. Again if it wasn't for cost and distance to gym I would totally be there.
The gym itself is really small. I was there at 5am when few people are there, not sure sure what 6-8am or rush hour times would be like there.
Check it out. It maybe what your looking for or not.Helpful 7Thanks 0Love this 1Oh no 0 - Teresa S.Phoenix, AZ4146Jul 14, 2020
This place is super clean. The trainers are all great and nice not just the one I've worked with but the others I've had interactions with as well. They care about you they want the best for your body and health and do what they can to make it happen. I'm still in the process of my first contract about nine weeks I think I've lost about six or 7 pounds but I feel super strong and healthy and look forward to see what the next four weeks bring.

Determination, genuine efforts, and attention to detail are the pathway to success on both sides of the coaching experience. You've brought it ALL! I appreciate that you recognize the same in us. The next 4 weeks will be even better! Thank you Teresa!

My husband and I have been training with trainer Miles and we both agree that he is definitely the best trainer we've been with and we've both, together and separate, been with many trainers. He combines cardio with strength and works all your muscles! He really pays attention to the both of us while we work out so we get the optimal benefits from every move and watches to make sure we are lifting correctly. He is always asking for feed back to ensure we've are getting what we want from each workout. We are so impressed by the cleanliness of the gym and the overall atmosphere. We are both in our 50's, that's hard to say , and we feel so comfortable there. I really am so glad we found them.

The staff here is great, and the environment was exactly what we were looking for in a more private gym. Ron is extremely knowledgeable and has helped my fiancé and I set out goals that work for us individually. Miles, our trainer, has really pushed us farther than we have before. Great place, glad we found it!
