Body By Discipline

I joined one of their challenges. They motivate you and offer a fair amount of classes. Is it expensive maybe. But it's also depends on your needs and pockets. I would recommend this gym to other people. More...

Went in, knew what I wanted (I loved martial arts when I was younger, the mind/body connection and pushing yourself), and signed up! The people seem super nice (it has a family atmosphere), the prices are VERY reasonable (especially for having open gym hours all day), and there are classes in the beginning, middle, and end of the day (so I know I can make at least a few). I like the motivational pictures/quotations on the wall/glass, it adds to the positive feel that the gym has. Super looking forward to training here! More...

I have attended this gym for 3 years now! Love it! Changed my life! I lost 35 pounds since I joined! The coaches are knowledgeable and beyond friendly! You can use the machines or attend classes, I do booth. The price is very fair, specially when compared to other boxing gyms. In my case I focus on pure boxing, because that's where my passion lies, but you can attend or practice a gamete of other combat sports, or simply focus on core/fitness! I highly recommend this gym! I'm so happy to access to this in my community! More...

I'm super glad I found this gym. I not only get my good work out, but also great energy and good vibes. The coaches are mood lifting and they have good music. I'm on a mission to reach my health and body goals and I can genuinely say that this gym will get me there. If I'm not at work I'm at the gym, that's how much I like this place. Shout out to my personal trainer, Chris. He is so motivating and works my butt off. More...

Sorry this is long overdue.  I would give this place 1000 stars if I could - this place is phenomenal.  Me and my daughter purchased a package some time ago and had the pleasure of training here specifically with Chris and his other fantastic team. Chris is professional, the facility is clean, well organized and the results (after just a few workouts) were extraordinary.  Summer is around the corner, spring break too and if you want to be prepared, I highly recommend this facility and the sister facility in Point Loma.  Additionally,  it is fun! I like that there is no pressure or up-selling, prices are GREAT, there is a genuine care about the client and they really love what they do! Further, you feel comfortable in this facility (ladies that can be a challenge for some of us , specifically me).  Listen I dont mind looking ugly to look pretty later ha! You can just be you here, no make up and all and feel great!  A+++  Give it a try! More...

I've been to several boxing gyms in San Diego and Body by Discipline is one of the best boxing gyms I've had a membership with. The classes provide an excellent full body workout. The coaches/trainers are great and the atmosphere is fun, welcoming and family oriented. It's not necessarily for those that want to compete and build a career in boxing (although it's possible!), but, if you're looking for a fun, challenging and interactive workout while learning some good techniques, this is it! I highly recommend! More...

If your looking for a new gym, Body By Discipline is it! My husband and I have been members for about 4 years. This is the longest I've ever been at one gym and consistent with working out. I love all the classes and the personal training sessions ( with Coach Jaques) will kick your butt! I've made some friends at B by D which is an awesome bonus. The owner, Chris Lumpkin, takes care of his members and has really established a nice neighborhood gym thats comfortable and convenient to go to. I like it so much better than a "regular" gym.

I found this gym looking for boxing classes for my 10 year old son. We both ended up attending many of the classes they offer. I specially like how they offer a class for adults and kids (kick boxing) which my son and I love. Coach Francis is super patient but at the same time will push you to perfect your form and go hard! The rest of the staff is also really down to earth and friendly. No one is pretentious and you don’t feel pressure. Only thing is I wish classes were one hour instead of 45 min. Imagine that! We liked them so much we wanted 15 more minuets each class. :) More...

Awesome. Family. Just all around cool people. I started going here to help my mom. The staff is really down to earth, passionate, and family oriented. They look out for their own which really touched my heart. My mom always had a problem with weight loss programs b/c in California people really be trying to take from you and no guarantees with those programs. Hard work pays off, especially with these guys. It was surprisingly fun, great stress relief, and have classes that work around almost every schedule. Only thing was it got hard to budget for. But they really try and work with you though. Chris and his team all have great vibes that make you wanna stay and workout. I loved Chris, Joe, and Ed's classes. Would definitely recommend them. Thank you.Word of advice. They are a bit tight in parking but they are sharing with other stores. They have 4 spots infront of the gym but those are reserved. They do have a big parking lot next to them, park behind them in the huge 99 cent parking lot which isn't too far, park at jack n a box which is right down the street, or take the trolley or the bus that isn't far from them. You came to workout, parking isn't the reason why you're not working out. That's a good warm up/cool down if you park further. More...

So, I have lived a block from Body by Discipline nearly four years and recently started personal training sessions about two months ago. Previously I had tried a number of gyms and personal trainers in the San Diego area never finding one that felt like a fit for me. Being an overly analytical person always stuck in my head (computer programmer) I was apprehensive and intimidated at the idea of joining a boxing gym. After a cursory online review and knowing I needed a lifestyle/fitness change I decided to give Body by Discipline a chance. Walking into my trial/first personal training session those feelings of apprehension and intimidation were ever-present, but after 10 minutes of working with, Coach Chris (owner) they were gone. Chris was extremely welcoming, patient, and knowledgeable making it apparent that he enjoys his work. It was clear at the end of my trial session that Body by Discipline was a fit and I purchased personal training sessions. Working with the Body by Discipline team these past two months have been amazing! Staff and members alike are friendly, welcoming, and helpful – there is a great sense of community. I have worked primarily with Coaches Chris, AK, and Jacques. Chris is a great motivator and takes the time to explain our workouts and exercises in detail. AK keeps me accountable, pushes me toward my goals, and keeps our workouts fun and challenging. Jacques got me to try boxing, and I found it extremely challenging, but that initial push made me want to stick with it and learn. With some small lifestyle changes and the help and knowledge of the Body by Discipline team, I have been able to drop 30lbs in two months. As long as I am in San Diego Body by Discipline will remain my gym. My only regret is not joining sooner! For anyone with reservations or fears, trust me, take a chance it is worth it! More...

BBD is the best! If you're looking for an amazing workout to get your heart rate going, learn some new kickboxing skills, and be trained by the most professional and encouraging staff, then look no further. My only regret is that I did not find this place sooner after living local to the area for two years! My personal testimony is that while I've only been training for a few weeks with Jacques, I can already see positive changes in my body as far as burning fat/loss, getting stronger with leaner muscle tone, and making healthier decisions with nutrition and lifestyle changes. Every workout is varied using functional fitness movements so you will never get bored. I always walk away feeling great after a motivating workout and immediately look forward to the next session.

Words cannot express how much Body By Discipline has changed my life, MY LIFE!! Before dedicating myself to BbyD, I had always put myself last, always! ! And because of it I became a person whom I disliked everytime I looked in the mirror, or much worse walking pass a window and seeing my reflection. Over the past 5 years I gained 80lbs!!! Why did I put myself last? I became a mother of 2, a wife, a student, a worker. Where I had no time for myself or should I say where I MADE no time for myself.  I was full of excuses after excuses of WHY I had gained so much weight!! Well...That all changed when I decided to "give it a try" at BbyD. I wouldn't call this place just a gym!! Body By Discipline feels like a home away from my own home, a place where I can escape from reality and zone out into focusing on me, ONLY ME!!! But all this is not possible without the huge help from my gym family: CHRIS, JAC, ED, VICTOR, & SOFIA!!! These people are amazing, always seeing great potential in us all!! They push us to strive for a great workout sesh, every single time!! They all have their own style of instructing a class... So every workout class is always different!! I walked into this place to just "give it a try", now I'm ALL IN!! This place gets my epinephrine going all the time!!! In a matter of 6 weeks my life has changed for the better... By giving 100% in every workout sesh,  By dedicating myself, By committing to my well-being, By receiving amazing support from my gym family, I started off at 241lbs. and now down to 220lbs.. I know I have some ways to go to get to my healthy goal, but I made huge progress: physically, mentally, and emotionally with the help of BODY By DISCIPLINE!!! More...

This is THE BEST gym I've ever been to, no question about it. If you're serious about investing in your health and training with professionals who know exactly what you need to reach your fitness goals, you must talk to Chris and Jacques. I've been attending BbD since the beginning of December and the difference it has made in my health and weight loss goals is hard to believe. I've never been a runner. Now I can run a mile at sustained speed every other day without much fuss. I've lost 4 clothes sizes, from a 16 to a 12. But mostly, I can't wait to train with coach Chris and Jacques because their workouts are the s***t. I've been to many gyms and I've had at least 5 different personal trainers in the past 10 years of my life. Every single time I got bored with workouts because they were always the same and results were hard to come by. Believe me when I say that these guys are the best of what's around. Every workout is different and challenging, but not impossible. You never know what to expect and they're amazing trainers for boxing and kick boxing. I love these guys. Their prices are unbeatable as well. If you're seriously thinking of changing your life around, go talk to them without wasting any more time. My only regret is not having started training with them sooner. More...

I was visiting the BBD yelp site today as I do often to see the great reviews that are always posted and I came across the negative reviews left by Kenzie. C, Alex E. and Lorenzo S.  I have known Chris for almost 6 years and I, like so many others, know him to be a strong and confident owner that is always encouraging to his members.  I am saddened that one person's experience and negative perception has led to lies and slander against this great establishment.  Chris and all of his trainers are amazing and I would be weary of these three individuals who are upset that they could not bend the rules of the gym and now are spreading very harmful reviews that are untrue.  If you want to know how Chris and his staff treat their members, look no further than the words of praise from many members on this page.  Body by Discipline and all of its members are like a family and Chris is a very poised and confident leader.  Best wishes to all of the wonderful team members of B by D!
