“During my 3-month stay in the area, I tried a few studios nearby, and Basecamp Burlingame easily stood out. The energy was consistently high, the environment was motivating, and the workouts were both intense and well-structured.
Special shoutout to Euni! she is fantastic. She brings such great energy to every class, keeps everyone motivated, and knows exactly how to challenge people in the right way. She’s encouraging, attentive, engaging, and clearly passionate about what she does. What really stands out is how she creates a positive and supportive environment while still pushing you to work hard. Her presence genuinely elevated the whole experience.
Really glad I found this studio while I was here.”

“I decided to check out Terra Nova Fitness for strength training. I'm starting to feel my age and know that I'm losing muscle. It was one of my best decisions.
Over the months I have felt stronger and have noticed my body changing. The best part is the training. There's always a coach watching the room. If I have questions or doing an exercise incorrectly, it is rectified quickly. Also, the encouragement is wonderful.
The studio isn't too large but it never feels crowded. Everyone has their own routines which changes every 4 weeks. I don't get bored and always feel that I am moving forward, getting stronger.
I'm happy I checked Terra Nova Fitness out and am extremely satisfied with the results.”

“I started training at Morph Fitness in September 2025 after reaching out for a consultation. During the initial meeting, I completed an InBody scan and discussed my goals and past challenges with staying consistent.
Since beginning training three times a week with Dimiceus, I’ve seen steady progress and recently decided to continue my sessions. The workouts are structured and adjusted based on my needs, which has helped me stay consistent. I appreciate not having to plan my own programming — it makes it easier to fit exercise into a busy schedule.
The sessions also include mobility work, which has helped with recovery. Overall, training here has made it more manageable for me to maintain a regular routine.”
“The supportive, knowledgeable environment at the Fix has honestly completely changed my perspective on working out. Connor has been so kind and encouraging, helping me learn how to do things I had no idea I could. He's so great about answering all of the questions I have about how stuff works or why we do things a certain way. Thanks to him and the studio, I've gained so much confidence in my abilities and my body!”
“The production here is exceptional. They have screens above each circuit station so you can review the movement while you're working out. The music is great and motivating. There's a super strong community here. My work schedule changed and I couldn't make it here anymore, but I had an exceptional time while I did.”

“Strength Camp SF has been a remarkable journey for me. I started attending this gym five months ago, and the strength and progress I have achieved since then has been unmatched. The program truly delivers on consistency in a way that many boutique studios, traditional gyms, or CrossFit-style classes often do not. There is a strong balance of structure, coaching, accountability, and community that has made a huge difference in my fitness journey.
The coaching staff is incredibly dedicated, and their expertise stands out. Coach Pat consistently corrects form, provides guidance, and finds ways to enhance form corrections and the approach week after week. Coach Jeremy brings a level of discipline and rigor to training that is both admirable and motivating.
Coach Jesiah and Coach Lisa make every class engaging and fun while still maintaining strong attention to form corrections and technique. Their enthusiasm creates such a positive training environment. Coach Richard and Kobe are extremely patient, consistently offering thoughtful guidance and demonstrating fantastic attention to detail that helps members feel supported and confident throughout workouts.
Every single coach has great attention to detail have been top tier and instrumental in clients making progress.
Overall, Strength Camp SF has created an environment that pushes people to grow stronger while also making training supportive and sustainable. If you are looking for to build strength, elevate your form, and make true changes to your fitness this is a great place to become a member.”

“Today was my first day at the gym and I really enjoyed everything about it . I drive 14 miles to get there even though there’s a gym 500 feet away from my place. It’s because here the staff are very friendly, welcoming, and always willing to help. The facility is clean, well-maintained, and never feels overcrowded, which makes workouts much more enjoyable.”
“I’ve had a great experience at Advanced Sports Performance. The coaches are friendly and really take the time to teach you proper form and technique. Coach Mike and Coach Melinda are so helpful and supportive during the classes. Coach Rick is very knowledgeable and has really helped improve my mobility, strength, and endurance. I love his positive attitude and the way he pushes me during my workouts.
The atmosphere is welcoming and encouraging. I am learning so much and have gotten stronger. I look forward to coming to my workouts here, whether it's a class or PT session.”

“TFT is an amazing community! All the coaches are really supportive and can help you with any questions you may have. If you sign up for custom workouts, the coaches can tailor the workouts to your specific needs, ensuring that each class is both enjoyable and rewarding. Also, I loved that there are other fun programs you can sign up for throughout the year besides the together and custom classes.”
“I’ve been coming to Solis Boxing for the past 3 years with my son Max, and it has honestly been one of the best decisions we’ve made.
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!”

I joined for rowing but have really enjoyed the stretch and core classes, Ive taking the rhythm ride class too. I want to take a dance class too eventually lol
Great community, so glad I joined!”
“I have been working out at the Farm for over a year now. Love this place cause it has everything I need - squat racks, large open turf area for sled pushes, walking lunges. Dr. Kelly has built a well thought out space. He is super knowledgeable and will offer you pointers and suggestions on your workout if you need it.
This place is a part of my morning routine. It’s incredibly well equipped for barbell and dumbbell based workouts and the gym is way less crowded and actually functional than big commercial gyms that pack people in there.”

“FullGrip (FGBB) has a VERY special place in my heart, so it was not easy for me to choose what to write for a review. I am a person who is far from anything athletic/gym/training. Like I’ve “donated” enough money to various big gym franchises in my life 😆. It has been more than 1.5 years since I’ve been with FGBB and it is the only place I can keep going despite the city traffics. I was a total strength training newbie, but Mark and Cat were patient, accurate and professional to take me in and grow. They have vibes as those uncles and aunts lived in your next doors forever 🙂. If you are looking for a classic gym that you could find locally back in good ole’ days, don’t hesitate and just commit!”
“My first time here and trying archery, friends invited me and I can honestly say I am very happy I participated. The staff are very knowledgeable and welcoming and make you feel so comfortable.
