Travis, the owner of the gym, is serious about upkeep and maintenance of the gym and this is immediately noticeable the moment that you step into his facility.

It's a clean gym, with good equipment, and good trainers.

In conclusion, it is a great gym to train in.

"Listen, folks β€” Travis owns a fantastic gym, maybe the best gym in
the country, some people are saying in the world. It’s tremendous,
really. The equipment? Perfect. The vibes? Big league. And Travis?
He’s the hottest, most driven guy out there β€” total champion. Nobody
trains harder, nobody runs a gym better β€” nobody. Members are getting
great results, and they keep coming back because Travis delivers
winning every single day. We love Travis. We really do."

Love the environment of the gym and all the trainers! The gym owner, Travis, welcomes everyone who comes to the gym and is amazingly detailed in making sure the gym is clean and organized for clients and trainers to use. There are plenty of trainers who specializes in certain workouts whether it’s bodybuilding, powerlifting, or just overall general health, so I’m sure you’ll find someone who fits your exact needs here! Highly recommend!

This gym is absolutely amazing! It's a wonderful place to get a workout in with your trainer. It's also a wonderful place to train clients if you are a trainer. I've known Travis over a decade and he really cares about BBA Gym and the experience of the people who show up there. BBA is a fantastic fitness community and I highly recommend it!!

This is an awesome gym with an owner who's dedicated to keeping the equipment and surroundings organized, clean and in great shape! It's an open environment where you're surrounded by and energized by trainers focused on helping their clients in a friendly atmosphere and where everyone's efforts are respected. The gym also enables the trainers there to really customize their client's workouts and it's a learning experience (everyday) to see various training techniques and their focus.

My wife and I first came to BBA when one of their trainers, Alex, started training at this gym. Alex is outstanding and has been our trainer for two years. He's extremely knowledgeable and passionate about training and can take you anywhere from HIIT to serious strength training for competition and everywhere in between. His latest mantra, "Exercise is fun!" is code for "Don't stop!" during our circuit training (LOL).

But that's how these trainers are at this gym. They're friendly, serious, focused on you, and they want to bring a little fun so you can improve and keep at it. My wife and I love coming to this gym for our sessions and we'd recommend it to anyone asking!

Absolutely love this gym! I work with my trainer, Audrey, at this location. She has helped me so much with the mobility, strength and endurance over the years that I have been working with her. She understands my body and knows how to adjust workouts based on how my body is feeling so I don't get hurt.
Gym has an excellent mixture of free weights/equipment, weighted/cable machines, cardio equipment, and a fabulous turf. They also have equipment for stretching and warming up to avoid injuring yourself.
Great amount of space to work with and all the trainers are super nice! You can tell that they pride themselves in the training they are providing to their clients.
Travis, the owner, always kept it clean and sanitized with COVID restrictions in place and continues to maintain that same level of cleanliness now. He also makes sure the gym and the equipment are working properly that issues are addressed quickly. Plus he always has a smile on his face and makes everyone feel so welcomed and comfortable! I highly recommend that anyone who wants to work 1-on-1 with a trainer to start their journey here.

Writing this review as a trainer who used to work at BBA. With over 10 years of experience I've run into a lot scary stories and bad trainers. And of all the gyms I've been to, this gym has to have some of the more experienced and well educated trainers out there. I would feel comfortable sending family and friends here without a second thought. Although I only worked here briefly I will still pick the brains of these trainers to help make me a better trainer myself. Highly recommend coming to this gym if you are new or experienced. This gym is a great place to better yourself judgment free and achieve your goals in a very safe atmosphere. Nothing but love for BBA.

Travis and Benny and all of the trainers are thoughtful, knowledgeable and effective. I have been a client for years and I have gone to many other gyms with many different trainers I can honestly say that the trainers here epitomize professionalism and hyper competence. They listen, they incorporate what they hear from you and they produce results.
I wholeheartedly recommend BBA Gym!

Highly recommended. Travis and the other trainers are knowledgeable, attentive and fun. Training sessions fly by and Travis has helped me reach a level of fitness I could not have done on my own. I’ve been training with him for years. The facility is well equipped and clean. A variety of great trainers to choose from!

I worked with Benny who is an incredible sweet and nice guy. I’ve always been a pretty athletic person, and have worked out extensively on my own. I booked personal training sessions to improve form, and ensure I’m lifting a safe weight. I did a consultation and everything seemed to check out - Benny is incredibly fit and so I figured if someone knows good form and lifting properly, it’s him. He’s also a really nice and sweet guy.

Fundamentally, it’s the job of a personal trainer to know when someone’s form is ready for a certain lift, to know which exercises are safe, which amount of weight is safe, and to advise a beginner on when to stop.

On the second personal training session, as a 120-pound woman, Benny gave me 272 pounds to lift β€” on my second, ever training session!

Since that session I have consulted 2 medical practitioners and 4 other folks who lift regularly; all 6 have said it’s extremely irresponsible and negligent to give someone 2x their bodyweight on a second training session and that the workout was barely short of pure recklessness. There's simply no way a beginner's form can allow for proper lifting of 2x their body weight.

For context, if you’re a 200 pound man, that means they'd give you 400+ pounds to lift - on your second session.

As you can imagine, on the lift, my back completely went out (I heard and felt some sort of sound), and was in incredible immediate pain β€” right after the injury, I couldn’t bend over without immense pain.

With a personal trainer, they're prescribing all sorts of weights with 10+ different moves each session; if any of those are off or cause injury, *you* will be living with that pain and the medical expenses that come with fixing it -- they won't.

Had the pain gone away in a week or so, I wouldn’t be here writing this review. Unfortunately, it’s been over a month and that pain has not fully gone away β€” 6 weeks and $500+ in medical bills later. Most likely I will need to have an MRI to see if there’s any kind of disc issue. These 2 sessions alone will likely result in over $1000 in medical bills if I go ahead and do the MRI.

I wrote the bulk of this review at 1 am in the morning in bed, because the tingling in my right leg has actively prevented me from falling asleep. My experience involved 3 days of intense pain, 1 week of extremely limited movement, and a month of continued lingering pain and tingling in my right leg down to my feet. Even a month after the injury, I cannot lift anything substantial without the pain returning. Woke up on Christmas morning with a backache.

I can’t in good conscious recommend this gym. I regret coming to this gym so, so, so much.

Giving a complete beginner 272 pounds to deadlift on a 2nd session seems to fall short of reckless.

If this gym employs someone that gives a workout like that on a 2nd session, I think it needs to re-consider it’s standards. Back issues are no joke, and I’d give anything to have to live pain-free again. You can always get another job, another car -- pretty much anything. But you can’t get another back. Plus, still dealing with all the medical bills.

If you’d prefer avoiding a slipped disc or back pain, I would avoid this gym.

Awesome place and awesome trainers! I was training with Justin last year at BBA Gym and got fully motivated and guided on both workouts and nutrition. Justin is one of the best trainers I have ever met in the past few years with his professional knowledge, great patience and uplifting personality. And I’m now training with Benji who is also a super trainer :D I will highly recommend this place to my fellows!

I like when it is not crowded and cool outside. With temperatures getting hot and people swarming it may lose its attractiveness. We'll see.

This is a gym that knows what it's about. The barbells are Rogue and plentiful. There's a cage per trainer. The only Smith machine is for reverse fly. There are giant fans to keep it cool. The showers are clean and private.

Honestly, everything else is pretty spartan, and I'm fine with that.

Fantastic place to achieve your goals. It's a positive, friendly, encouraging, and welcoming environment. Zac is awesome and I would highly recommend him. The gym is clean, spacious, and the private showers are super convenient. I was initially hesitant to join, but it turned out to be one of the best decisions I've made, and this gym has made it easy to stick with it for 2+ years.

Reached out to BBA gym once I was given the all clear from my doctors at 6 months postpartum (c-section) and it's been a fantastic experience with them from the start. I have been training with Benjamin (Benji) for almost 6 months now and he is very knowledgeable, upbeat and have made me feel very safe and understood that I m getting back into exercising. Each training session is the perfect mix of interesting and challenging workouts while still being okay to move around the next day. Can feel myself getting stronger and better with each session.

I have always hated gyms and physical activity, but Benji has changed the way I think about working out and eating healthy.
He does a great job at personalizing my workout based on my body, fitness state, and personal preference (I hate, hate, hate cardio). He has motivated me to get healthier and has been very invested in my progress, checking on me even outside of our weekly workouts. In a few months working out with him I have seen tremendous changes to my body and to the way I think about food and physical activity.

Overall, Benji is an excellent trainer and I strongly recommend him, even (especially) if you are thinking you will never love going to the gym.

Both my wife and I have been clients here for the past year and have been extremely pleased with our results. Travis and his entire staff of trainers are all first rate - professional, knowledgeable, and dedicated to getting results for their clients. Facilities have every piece of equipment needed and is huge. They also have other services here, e.g., yoga, chiropractic, and maybe a few others, but I haven't tried them yet. Regardless, the personal training here is top-notch.

A fantastic gym to workout. This place has such a positive vibe and all the trainers are super cool and friendly. I have been working out at BBA for almost 2 years and very happy with the results. I have been to big franchise gyms in the past but nothing comes close to quality of trainers BBA has. If you are in south bay and looking for superhero kind of trainers, BBA is the place for you.
