This place is the rare case of the best equipment available and the experts to instruct you on its use. The owners are hands-on and if you need or want a personal trainer there is none better. I've been using personal trainers for 15 years on both coasts, Bill is by far the best.

This is truly one of the best gyms in the world. You most likely won't find a more well equipped gym, with real Nautilus and Med X equipment anywhere. Bill Crawford and his wife, the owners, are super kind & knowledgeable. There really isn't much in fitness they haven't seen or done themselves.Warm regards,Rob SaarIPR Fitness FounderUnited States Marine Corps

Best gym ever. I've been going to Basic Training for 10 years now. The gym is clean and comfortable. Bill Crawford knows what you need to build strength, balance and power. The equipment is excellent and it helped me to build and maintain my mussels. Lately, to my joy, my bone mass is holding steady, and slightly increasing! As a woman in my 60's I'm over the moon. See Debbi Crawford to get started!

I have a severe muscle wasting disease that makes the lifetime of my skeletal muscle only 8 weeks. Bill and Debbie Crawford added 2 important years to my life as I continued to self diagnose and fight doctors to get to root cause. I can only build muscle in the first several weeks of a muscle build, and so their technique for rapid muscle gain was key to getting the most possible benefit for me.

I have been training 3x a week with Bill and Debbie for 3+ years starting in my mid-30s. They have all the equipment, from equipment to attack any muscle, to rehab and injury (back, shoulder, neck, knees, ...). Bill is an expert in getting the most of you and the equipment. My back pain (from scoliosis) is gone, strength is off the charts, and I am having fun at the same time.

15 months ago I discovered Basic Training. No surprise that it was recently voted Best of Scottsdale 2019 Best Place to Exercise and Best Personal Trainer (Scottsdale Progress). My life has completely changed since regularly doing a proven program designed and administered by National Fitness Hall of Fame Trainer Bill Crawford. After I had lost more than 120 pounds, Bill placed me on a program to reshape my body. Now my waist that was 44 inches is today 33 inches! My strength in all areas doubled and tripled. I am 4 pounds away from hitting an 8-year targeted goal and in the past 15 months Bill has accelerated this accomplishment. Thank you Bill and Debbie Crawford for changing my life!70 and getting younger and more fit every day.
