10/10 trainer and environment. I’ve had gym memberships for years but nothing is as motivating and rewarding than being a member of Neighborhood Muscle. Kareem is professional and he takes his craft seriously. He has managed to ALWAYS make a beginner like me feel comfortable and like I deserve to be there just as much as anyone else. To my beginners, I know it can be a mental hurdle to learn and move your body in ways you may not have before, especially in the company of others but something about attending here just completely lets your guard down. All you have to do is show up and try and you WILL get your money’s worth!!!!

I really like the way we each work on our own workout menu set by Kareem here. At regular gyms, I used to feel uncomfortable - worried about being judged by others, or feeling awkward if I wasn’t wearing the “right” workout clothes. That kind of ego, pride, and comparison with others kept me away from joining. But here, there’s none of that strange pressure. I think it’s because everyone just focuses calmly on their own training.

Even so, there’s still a sense of connection, like we’re companions in this together. I never feel left out, and I believe that’s thanks to Kareem’s personality. The atmosphere isn’t just about working silently - there’s also light conversation, sometimes about daily life and sometimes about the workout itself. Those small chats make the sessions more enjoyable.

Honestly, before every session I still think, “I don’t feel like working out” or “It’s a hassle to go.” But once I’m there, I always enjoy it, and knowing that keeps me coming back. The gym is well-equipped, so I can do exercises I could never do at home, and with Kareem’s support I know I’m training safely. He makes sure the program is right for my current skill and strength level, so it feels both safe and effective. It’s truly a wonderful environment to continue training in.

I absolutely love training here. The gym is unisex, but it feels very comfortable and welcoming, and the other members are always kind and respectful. The trainer is excellent (certified, knowledgeable) and truly invested in helping you succeed. He provides effective meal plans and fitness programs tailored to your individual goals, and he knows how to adjust them based on your progress.

He’s kind, patient, and a great motivator. With his guidance, I was able to reach my goals in a short amount of time; it took discipline on my end, but his daily motivation and accountability made a huge difference. One thing I really appreciate is how attentive he is to any injuries or limitations. For example, when I had a knee issue, he modified my workouts so I could keep training safely without losing progress.

The facility itself is clean, well-equipped, and has a positive atmosphere. Overall, he’s an outstanding trainer with a great space, and I highly recommend him to anyone looking for real results and a supportive environment.

My husband and I have struggled with our weight for over two decades.
Neither one of us knew how to properly train/exercise.
We saw Kareem advertising his business for YEARS (usually on our way to Dairy Queen) and always thought one day we will call him.
Finally, a little over a month ago we had a Consultative Meeting with Kareem.  He was extremely friendly, not judgmental and ask important questions (health conditions, physical limitations, expectations).
Our weekly sessions with Kareem have been a lot of work but so worth it and gratifying to learn how to properly work out.  Kareem keeps our sessions new, interesting, and revolving so we are not doing the same type of activities each time which helps with folks who get bored easy!
Kareem is very kind, engaged and concerned with how we are feeling along the way and building sessions unique to our individual needs.
We would highly recommend Kareem and his team at Neighborhood Muscle.  Amazing group of people that genuinely care about their clients and their health goals!

Neighborhood muscle is much more than a gym, you walk in and you Immediately feel at home. I’ve had the privilege of knowing Kareem for over eight years as my trainer. He is helpful and informative whether you have a Pacific goal in mine or just wanting a health change depending on individual preferences. Once you walk in you become part of a neighborhood gym family.

Very encouraging, motivating and always gives great advice.

I lost over 15lbs in 3months and he helped me get back into shape which allowed me to be able to increase my fitness goals.

There is not enough space to describe our(also my daughter’s) experience. When I first started I would sit in my car and cry telling myself I can’t do the training and exercises. Well Kareem had so much faith in me so I kept on going and going. I developed a whole new understanding of how important exercises and nutrition are to our body and mind while lowering my blood pressure and blood sugar. He is so creative and fun in developing exercises. You are one lucky person to have Kareem as a trainer. He saved my life.

If you want to feel better, look good, and extend your time on earth, I highly recommend Neighborhood Muscle and Kareem for training. I came across his ad 7 years ago on Nextdoor at the end of 2018. By summer 2019, I was down from 250lbs to 200lbs and confidently taking my shirt off at the beach lol. Kareem provides a challenging but fun environment that was full of energy and workouts that were always unique and different from day to day. He also assisted with providing diet guidance which was critical to my health and transformation. Thanks to him, I am 46 years old, playing basketball, and have never felt this strong. He helped me establish a healthy lifestyle, eliminate my high blood pressure, and improve physical exam results. You won’t regret it and will feel like a different person.

My trainer Reem at Neighborhood Muscle is great. He made sure that my workouts lined up with the goals I wanted, made recommendations for other areas that I could improve on and kept me accountable. He has various times that I can train throughout the day which is great for me because my schedule changes frequently. Not to mention the price for unlimited weekly training sessions was a great deal and helped me get to my goal faster. Hands down one of the best trainers I’ve worked with over the years.

First off, I want to say I respect this man’s hustle! I discovered him marketing himself on the corner a few years back. It had to be God because at the time I was searching for a new trainer and he popped up. Not only am I immensely proud of him and his family for having this new gym that they can all theirs but I also want to take the time and say I see the blessing first hand. Fa sho, give the Tyler family 5 stars not just for the dedication they give in the gym to help get your body right but the genuine spirit they have for others. 🤎

Kareem is the best! I started working out with him back in 2019 when he was at a different location, but unfortunately had to stop due to unforeseen circumstances. When I decided I needed to get fit again and lose weight, without hesitation I knew I had to start back up with Kareem at Neighborhood muscle. I'm now 2 months into my fitness journey and I'm already seeing results.

It is very reasonably priced and Kareem definitely gives you that push and motivation you need to achieve your goals. If you're thinking about joining 10/10 recommend.

I have been weight training with Kareem for over 5 years now. Starting up at 51 years old was definitely a challenge but Kareem put me to work at my level. He didn’t make me do exercises that my body wasn’t capable of. We started with simple exercises with the goal of making everyday life easier, like getting out of a chair, up off the ground without struggling. I am now able to do far more than I ever thought I would. Very grateful for his professionalism & friendship.

My husband and I have been working with Kareem for three months now, and the results have been incredible! We've already seen major physical transformations in not only how we look, but also in how we feel. Strength and endurance have improved in ways we never expected in such a short time.

Kareem tailors workouts to our individual needs and goals, while keeping things fresh and engaging. No two sessions feel the same, and his creativity ensures that we're always challenged in new and exciting ways. He has an incredible way of pushing us beyond what we think we're capable of while still making every workout enjoyable.

I've worked out with other trainers in the past, but Kareem's approach stands out as the most innovative and effective I've experienced. If you're looking for a trainer who truly cares about your progress and keeps workouts dynamic and results-driven, Kareem is the one. We're so grateful for his guidance and can't wait to see how much further we can go with his support!
