GYMGUYZ helped this mama get into a bikini for the first vacation she'd had in years. The owner, James, was so professional and helpful when helping to put together a workout regiment that fit my schedule and body goals. He arrived to my home punctually without fail (even for the impossibly early time slots) and brought along all the equipment I would need. He wore his face mask at all times in keeping with today's COVID protocols. He was very personable and always encouraging. I would not have been motivated to workout as hard as I did without the assistance of GYMGUYZ. Having a trainer come to my home, instead of me having to drag myself to the gym early in the morning, was a game changer for me. I'm so glad I chose them to whip this post-baby body into shape!!

FANTASTIC. The team from GYMGUYZ was excellent. They met with me to understand my goals and customized a program to succeed. Lost the COVID weight!

I met James when I was at the LA fitness gym with my son. He noticed my incorrect form on an exercise I was doing and kindly demonstrated a safer way that put less stress on my body. After talking with him more, I learned about his fitness services and signed up for in home training. I was just going to try it for a month, but he was really making a difference. With his guidance, I am so proud that I have completely strengthened my knees that had been injured from playing tennis. In three months, he helped me resolve what I had been just suffering through for several years now. I’m now doing full repetitive, deep squats. My knees are solid and I feel like I can even start skiing again. My entire body is ready for my summer wear! Yes! James is very knowledgeable and patient. He is definitely one of the best fitness coaches. I highly recommend him. More...
