I am glad I made the investment in myself and found Formula Fitness. My experience has been wonderful. The gym has an incredible staff and is very clean, well maintained and equipped. I started my fitness journey with training from Jason and JP. Both trainers are passionate about what they do and have motivated and supported me as I have worked to reach my fitness goals. When I began working out seven months ago, my priority was to keep moving and to not let my Parkinson's diagnosis define me. One on one personal training with Jason and JP did more that. The consistent workout schedule has provided me with more energy, balance, strength, and better sleep. The “extra push” when needed, confidence building workouts and dedicated recovery time at the end of each session have been invaluable. No matter how big or small your goal is, this is the place where you want to be!

I just wanted to learn the foundations of weight training, and decided to give Formula Fitness a try with a 6 month program. Little did I know Formula would become my home gym for the next 1.5 years! Everyone on the Formula team is so genuine about your health and well-being. At Formula, it’s not just about getting a specific aesthetic result (although you definitely can achieve that if it’s your goal) - but about learning to take care of your body for longevity. The team caters exercises and routines to fit your own personal needs and limitations - even in small group classes. It’s never a one size fits all type of deal at Formula, and it teaches you to be mindful of the uniqueness of your body and learn a routine that works for you. They also emphasize recovery after each exercise - never have I had unmanageable soreness or pain even after a hard workout at Formula, only the good kind of soreness that tells me I worked hard. ◡̈

I went from having no knowledge in weight training to developing a strong foundation that allows me to workout alone, without fear of hurting myself or doubt on whether I’m doing things right. I also learned the unique strengths and weaknesses of my own body, and things I should be mindful of in exercise and also in daily life. I think Formula Fitness is a great gym for anyone, no matter where you are in your fitness journey - but I especially recommend this team to people who are early in their fitness journey, or looking to boost performance to the next level. 10/10!

Formula Fitness changed my life! Jason has been helping me get back into athletic shape after my Sinal Fusion I had 2 years ago. I didn't know if I would ever be able to play basketball or go surfing again after my years of pain that led up to the surgery on my low back. After I completed my physical therapy I wanted to continue getting stronger but I was afraid that I would injure my back again. Jason picked up where the PT left off and helped me to achieve my goal of total mobility pain free! After accomplishing the pain free life we have been able to set and achieve many other fitness goals as well. I have been able to get back into the waves and I enjoy playing basketball every week!!
The environment at Formula Fitness makes working out so simple. They offer one on one training while others are also receiving one on one training or there are also group classes as well. When I am not feeling up to a certain workout Jason always teaches me a new recovery or a new way to do the strengthening without pain. They work with my busy schedule so that I'm able to achieve my goals in the midst of it all. I always feel at home going into the gym and I am so so grateful for Formula Fitness! Jason has even offered group classes to train me and my kids at the same time during the summer! I couldn't recommend this place any more highly regardless of your fitness level or your goals!

Post-COVID my body was all kinds of messed up from working from home, leading to muscle weakness, constant injury, and poor posture. Years after regularly getting sessions at Formula Fitness, I feel stronger, more confident, and less prone to injury.

What I love about Formula Fitness is that they prioritize recovery and mobilization in addition to strengthening. Love all the equipment they have. Getting a massage with my training was a total treat.

Tony is great and I really enjoyed working with my trainer Brent. He’s very encouraging and always patient and flexible with me when I was having wrist or elbow pain. I appreciated that he made recommendations for my diet as well.

Love this place and I’m real sad I’m moving away from it. Thanks all!

I worked with Tony and Jason at formula fitness for about 6 weeks and I really enjoyed that the team took their time to explain different exercises to me and their benefits, but most importantly corrected me when my form was off. 

I did small group training mostly at the gym, and sometimes it can get a little tight but its a small boutique gym so everything cant be perfect. At least I get to avoid huge crowds at other gyms that focus on big groups. At formula fitness the groups at most are 5 members per Trainer.

I loved the fact that the trainers make recommendations for nutrition, supplements, and shoes. They even send us links from amazon to make it convenient.
I would love to see them sell the actual products in the gym. This would be a win/win situation for the members and business.

My Goals were to lose weight and improve my posture.
Already in the short amount of time I have noticed my stomach getting smaller, posture has improved, and my upper body strength has improved.

I am very happy with the experience that I’ve had with the gym and the team. I would recommend it to anyone that needs extra help to learn, get motivated, and experience great results.

Owner is fantastic. Love the personal attention. Tony makes sure you are always doing the exercise correctly, gives positive feedback and encouragement. This gym had been a lifesaver this year as exercise is a key to staying healthy.

I started training at Formular Fitness 5 months ago. Tony and Jessica are both great trainers. They both are courteous, detail oriented, positive and friendly. My posture has improved significantly over this short period of time. I've had chronic back issue forever, but now it hasn't bothered me. I love this place and highly highly recommend it for anyone that wants to improve their health.

First, I'm a gym lover. I have 4 memberships in different places back home in Denver just to keep things interesting. I come to Cali every summer though with the mindset to challenge myself in a new way to see how I can transform my body. I thought I pushed my body to the limit, I thought I knew what a full body workout entailed. Wrong! This summer, meeting Tony, he challenged the way I workout, and how to push myself beyond what I thought I could do. I lost only 10lbs total (counting from my home scale) in the 2 months I trained with him, but what was more impressive is for the first time I have abs peeking through! I'm a single momma to 3 young kids, so let's be honest about when we last saw those! I lost 4" around my midsection, 2" everywhere else, and I went from a size 8 to a size 2!
The beauty of Tony's classes is they build upon each other. While you might feel that they are random, the way they are structured is to always keep your body guessing. When it falls into a pattern you stop growing and building. Even something as simple as changing the speed helps build the muscle and tone the body back together. Having these personalized classes 5x a week, with a bonus boot camp on Saturday mornings were a special treat.

Working with Tony at Formula fitness has been really great. I appreciate the theme of the gym as its very intimate and inviting for those who don’t prefer to work out in the typical open gym with tons of other people. For me, bigger facilities give me this gymtimidation and by coming to formula fitness I am able to come and just work out without having these worries in the back of my mind. Although the gym doesn’t have a ton of machines to choose from for cardio like a stair master or elliptical, the gym does have 2 new air bikes and 2 rowers machines, so the space is still suitable for group cardio work. As far as other equipment, there’s a ton of new weights, kettle bells(my favorite) and importantly a scale that measure body fat % to track progress. If you’re looking to really gain nutritional and body knowledge in regards to your journey of bettering yourself, I highly recommend looking into formula fitness. The environment is personal meaning that its great alternative to your traditional intimating gyms, it’s very aesthetically clean and appealing with all the new equipment, and lastly you are networked with a team who’s very motivating and genuinely want the best for you and your journey.

I am very fortunate that I have the ability to train with Tony. He's very knowledgeable in all aspects of fitness training and he's very understanding and caring. I have been training with Tony for past 5 months and within few months, I was able to get my heart stronger and feel confident in the way I looked. Tony is a life coach, nutritionists, trainer, and truly inspirational. You cannot go wrong in choosing Tony as your personal trainer. I highly recommend him!

Great work vibe with the owner Tony. Small group sessions really motivates you, Whether you’re competitive like me or motivated By a group of others who are doing the same thing. It’s a unique formula but it works and You’ll be happy you did it.

Tony is a great trainer and very knowledgeable. I do not know another trainer that has learned so much about all body types, muscles and exercises to help. He is very patient and keeps me accountable even though I'm a very difficult person to train due to my schedule. He doesn't just help with exercise and your health but your overall life. I would highly recommend!

Tony is amazing! I was looking for a trainer that would change my outlook on working out. He has taught me so much since we started back in June. I have a healthier mindset on fitness and nutrition. He has tailored my workouts to my lifestyle - which is huge for me since I own a business and travel quite a bit.

Overall - things that I couldn't do, I know I can do now. Injuries that have held me back are no longer a concern. If you're looking for amazing trainer this is the place. No judgments on what you know, he makes you feel comfortable and confident throughout the process.

Gym is brand new, he keeps up with new tech and equipment.

If you are looking for someone to push you, to get you out of your comfort zone, and to uplift you while you sweating like crazy then look no further than Formula Fitness. Tony will push you to do things that you didn’t think were possible. For a great workout in 20/20 set your sights on Formula Fitness.

I am so glad I decided to train with Tony. He is very knowledgeable in all aspects of fitness and truly wants to help clients with our fitness goals. The main reason I decided to seek a personal trainer was because I was having excruciating shoulder, neck, and upper back pain. I had already seen a doctor and received physical therapy with only temporary relief of pain. I have been training with Tony for about 4 months now and the pain is 100% gone and I feel stronger and with increased energy!! Honestly, Tony changed my life and still is (now concentrating on nutrition)!
Exercise sessions: The exercise sessions always have a warm-up and cool-down. Tony always demonstrates the exercises (sometimes multiple times) and ensures I am using correct form while doing the exercise. Routines are never the same, and he even tailors the exercises to specific areas I want to work on sometimes. Sessions are always fun and very challenging. There are times I feel I won’t make it but Tony keeps me going to the end; I feel great afterwards! The new facility is very nice, spacious, and clean. It is equipped with various exercise equipment.
I can assure you that you will not be disappointed at Formula Fitness!

After my #ironman #triathlon race I was looking for a trainer who can help me get in better shape for my next race and then I met Tony.
He has helped me with muscle imbalances and is helping me get my mobility down and strengthening where I am weak at.
He is wonderful and teaches you so well and you will learn more about your body in detail.
I highly recommend checking him out and get worked for 2020!!!
