My husband and I had never been to a gym and we thought it'd be great to have someone show us how to strengthen our core the CORRECT way.  Albert is the BEST trainer for us!  He watches us intently to make sure we're doing everything correctly.  He doesn't say do 20 of these and leave.  He WATCHES us, making sure every bit of our body is doing the correct thing.  He knows exactly what to start with, and when to slowly increase the weights or the activity.  I also like that Albert has us working on cardio, arms, thighs, everything!  He has us working on different equipment, too.  This gym is co-owned by Albert and his dad, Mark.  The coaches who work at the gym are very friendly.  As my husband and I warm up on the treadmill before we begin with Albert, we watch the morning boot camp in session and see how everyone is focused on how to better themselves, how they support each other, and observe how Mark teaches, encourages, and monitors each one of them.  You can see a family atmosphere because of how Mark and Albert work with everyone.  One can easily see how Mark, Albert, and others truly care about the people and helping them reach their goals.

I've been coming to this gym for almost a year, the coaches are very professional and very uplifting, and they make you feel like family. They teach you the proper technique form to avoid injury. The motivation is unlike no other making it easier to come out of your comfort zone and making the transition easier. The coaches work with you to boost you up to the next level and help you surpass any physical limitations. I have seen a considerable change in my health and lifestyle. I highly recommend them.

Signing up to this gym has been the best decision! Every workout is intense and the trainers Mark, John, and Albert keep you motivated. They not only care about the number on the scale but about our overall well being. Since joining The Next Level my confidence has gone up and thanks to John and Mark, my posture has improved. What I love and is unique about this gym is that they not only care about the number on the scale but they measure your body fat and provide custom made nutrition plans. This gym has the family ambiance and everyone is super nice and motivated. More...

I've been coming to this gym for my second week now. I absolutely love the boot camp. I've learned formation, how to properly do workouts, and if I am ever struggling there's always a trainer to train and show me then and there.

I just completed the 3-week program. I had never worked out with a trainer before, or even stuck to a program for more than 3 weeks. I surprised myself that I could do so much and gotten this far, I never hesitated going to the gym daily. They challenge you with a variety of routines and the coaches are amazing. I would recommend this gym to anyone who wants to lose weight, don't want to get bored, and are motivated to improve themselves everyday. Good one! More...

The Next Level Gym is amazing! The equipment is top of the line, everything is kept extremely clean, and the trainers are an absolute joy. The bootcamp is wonderful! Everyday that you show up, they have a complete workout set up and ready for you!  It is NOT one of those bootcamps where they just set up stations and leave you on your own to figure out. The trainers come by VERY often and coach you through the workouts and provide words of encouragement and support.The atmosphere is fun and very positive, but they still kick your butt during the workout!! They have a wonderful following of people that regularly attend the bootcamps and they are always willing to help you out. I recommend the Next Level Gym to ALL of my family & friends! More...

If you're looking for a gym that will keep you MOTIVATED, you've found it. If you're looking for a POSITIVE, judgement-free learning environment, you've found it. If you're looking for top grade equipment and the told you need to succeed, you've found it!Albert runs the evening classes and ensures correct and safe posture when pumping that iron. He's creatively enthusiastic and always has a positive attitude that encourages me to believe in myself.Mark (Albert's dad) inspires the morning class and is equally as motivating. Here they truly treat you like family. There are a lot of personal trainers out there that believe the only way to motivate their client is to point out their flaws. Not an the Next Level Gym. This family run business consistently checks in on us to make sure our nutrition plan is on track and allows for a fun work out experience. More...

It's been two months since I joined this gym and  it's been one of the best decisions I've made for myself. They truly treat you like you're family everyone is wonderful and supportive and definitely help you stay motivated and stay on track. For me the hardest thing was trying to get back into the habit of working out and making changes to my diet in order to improve my lifestyle. I'm so grateful to have found this place. I'm doing training sessions and going to the classes. I love how each day I'm doing something that doesn't bore me and I definitely break a sweat. I've noticed changes in how my clothes fit and overall working out has totally boosted my confidence. I appreciate Albert, Jake and all the other team members.

The trainers here care a lot about helping me do the exercises right.  The class format gives you a well-rounded approach, mixing cardio and strength training in a way that make it possible to come every day. Albert, Mark, and the other trainers make the classes high-energy, and they will always check-in individually to make sure I'm protecting myself from injury and getting the maximum benefit.  I have been coming continuously since June, training three, four, and even five days a week.  It's hard work, but I've noticed a strong improvement in how I feel from day to day, and my energy level is way up.  I have better definition in the bathroom mirror, and for 2017 'abs' are within reach.

I met Mark and his team over 7 years ago and since then I have been continually impressed by each coach's ability to commit to each client thru an effective program. I have lived in NYC and Orange County where I tried group classes at elite boutique gyms, but none of them come close to the services that the next level gym offers. The weekly schedule that includes exhausting one muscle group each week (instead of a full-body workout in one class) + the dynamic, tailored nutrition plan and the invaluable coaching along the way, make it the most effective program/gym I have ever belonged to.

The Next Level is as good as it gets when it comes to the gym!I love the fact that the trainers pay extra attention to the proper form and techniques and make sure you are preventing an injury  and getting the most of your workouts. They take the time to explain the workouts and provide clarification if needed making sure you understand what the workout entails and also building your confidence to be able to use the knowledge acquired on your own when needed. TNL is a supportive and positive atmosphere, great place for you to improve and continue learning about wellness and fitness. They also provide with a personalized meal plan and welcome you to bring in your own and modify it for you if needed. If you are a beginner they will modify your workouts and meal plans to any fitness level, still keeping you challenged at all times. Every workout is different, I promise you will never get bored! As a result since signing up I have gotten much stronger in such a short time, I strongly recommend TNL. More...

I actually LOVE going to the gym now!Next level gym is really the ideal place to work out.  I've been attending the indoor boot camp that is run by Mark Haro.  I've done other boot camp and kickboxing and zumba classes but i get bored pretty quickly and stop going. But so far, after a few months this one is still challenging and different each and every time. More importantly, the trainers are all motivating and encouraging, they actually know you by name and you feel accountable.  Other places you're just a paying customer, and once you pay, they forget all about customer service, but here they really get invested in wanting you to feel better and achieve your goals.   They have a very good nutrition plan - a reasonable one with normal foods - not all egg whites and nasty protein shakes.  He also does actual caliper measurements to measure your level of body fat.  Which even though painful is motivating.  Sometimes the scale doesn't change but seeing those percentages move as you change your body from gooey fat to toned muscle is better than anything.  Very happy client - i think i finally have found a home after bouncing around from class to class and from gym to gym.  Thank you Mark, Albert and Marissa!

I have been training with Mark Haro at Chino Hills Indoor Boot Camp for 10 weeks. During that time I've lost a total of 13 pounds, gained 6 pounds of muscle while losing 10 pounds of fat. Having worked out in gyms for over 32 years I have never achieved results so quickly. Mark's multiple tiered approach combines resistance training with aerobic conditioning and proper nutrition. What's even more amazing is my recent blood results show that I'm no longer a borderline diabetic or have high cholesterol.

I'm getting married on Oct. 1st and I needed to trim down and look good FAST!!!Around June, I originally made the mistake of going to Fitness Concepts which is also located in Chino, but that place has such a horrible ($dollar sign$) vibe and they about killed me just in the original consult. ....AFTER I told them I hadn't worked out in like two years, they didn't care.  Afterwards, every muscle in my body was screaming with pain, I couldn't walk or sit without making funny faces or swearing like a sailor for a whole week.  But THE NEXT LEVEL GYM is different.  After my horrid experience at the other facility, I logged onto yelp and typed in Personal Trainer and it gave me two results.  Two locations that were quite close to each other in fact.  I ended up closing my eyes and just pointed my finger to see which one it landed on, ok not really, but I decided on NEXT LEVEL. I called the place up and got Albert on the phone.  He was friendly, courteous and just gave a relaxed vibe, told me to come on down to the gym when I can and we'll take it from there.And that's exactly what I did.  After visiting the place just once, I forked over the big bucks for a 3-month (36 sessions) one-on-one personal training with Albert.   He totally understood what I was capable of and never pushed me beyond my limits.  After the first few sessions, I was sore and achy but was never out of commission.  It was a pleasant feeling knowing that you were putting your body to the work, and the soreness was just letting you know that.  (It was NOT the screaming pain from before where my body was pissed off and wanted to know WTF I did to it!)Albert also provided me with a nutrition plan to help me w/ my eating.  At the beginning, he even had me take photos of my food to text it to him.  Maybe he didn't trust me?!?!Now it's almost the end of the 3-months.  Originally, I was just going to stop there but now I want to keep going!!!  I feel great now, my clothes fit me so much better now, my fiance drools over my legs, all my friends and family say I look like I've lost so much weight!  But I really only lost just a few pounds.  To me, it's not about the number though, it's about how my body feels and looks.  I eat healthier and I look more comfortable and happier with myself.  And the bonus is that I will fit my wedding dress perfectly!!!  I didn't even need to make alterations to it.  Now I'm just worried I'm going to lose too much and the dress will be too big!  AHHHH!!!!I like going here because I lack the discipline to go to a public gym on my own and I also get bored easily.  NEXT LEVEL keeps me motivated to go because I actually see results on a weekly basis.  They also offer boot camp classes taught by Albert's Dad, Mark and some other smaller group training  w/ his younger bro, Nate.  I'm not comfortable with Boot Camp classes because I don't play well with others, so it's just the one-on-one for me.  But I love watching the classes, people watching amuses me.My Stats: (I know, it doesn't look like much....but it's enough for me)                                       Orig 5/25          As of 8/16              CHANGESWEIGHT:                    162.80 lbs       155.00 lbs            -7.80 lbsLEAN BODY MASS:  104.68 lbs       115.80 lbs            11.13 lbsFAT BODY MASS:      58.12 lbs         39.20 lbs             -18.93 lbsBODY FAT %:              35.70%            25.29%               -10.41 % More...

You won't find a more passionate trainer than Mark! The training is always challenging and his nutritional program is flexible and one you can stick with for life. Don't let the laid back attitude fool you into thinking the workouts are easy! You will be challenged and you will get in the best shape of your life. No workouts are ever the same. I started with Mark a year ago...having never worked out consistently. He educated me on the proper form to lift weights, taught me all about nutrition and consistently holds you accountable to changing your life. His positive spirit and undeniable passion for fitness is apparent. He truly cares about the individual...and shares in your struggles and your successes.   The minute you walk in the door, you feel like a member of the family.  You absolutely will NOT find another gym like this one.You can come every Saturday at 8a.m. for a free bootcamp.  See the kind of fun we have during the week...and be surprised by the passion!
