Thiary and Chris are amazing! Ever since I joined their gym, I don’t have to convince myself to workout in the morning. It’s just part of my routine. They’ve made me feel so welcome and are good at making it feel like a community rather than just a gym. I mostly workout with thiary and you can tell she’s very passionate about what she does.

I’ve been going to BUILT BODY FITNESS for a little over a year and the only regret is not joining sooner! BBF is more than just a gym, it’s a community. Thiary and Chris genuinely care about each individual’s success in their fitness journey, and that’s what sets them apart from the rest. Each session is like having a personal trainer but in a small group setting. I’ve tried other gyms in the past but none come close to or compare to BBF. The energy is always amazing and contagious. My muscle mass and strength have increased so much in only a year with BBF guiding me. Thank you Thiary and Chris for always pushing me to go harder and get out of my comfort zone, you guys are truly the best!

BBF is an amazing gym filled with so many like minded people who come and give it their all because of both the trainers Thiary and Chris. They both push you to your best and challenge you, I’ve been surprised with what I can do actually. This isn’t like your traditional gyms, they have structured workouts for each individual, red light saunas, and so much gym equipment! Definitely recommended this place if you’re feeling stuck with your workouts and need some more guidance.

Thiary and Chris aren’t just amazing coaches but also amazing human beings. Ever since I started at BBF a year ago they have been nothing but welcoming, encouraging, patient and motivational. Not only them but also the entire BBF community 🫶🏼 They push you to give it your all even when you think you have nothing more to give. I appreciate them so much and so happy I made the decision to join BBF. I highly recommend BBF if you want to start your fitness journey!

Almost two years strong with Coach Thiary and Chris at Built Body Fitness 💪🏽✨ Started my fitness journey back in April 2024, and I can honestly say they’ve changed my life in the best way. These two go above and beyond — they don’t just train you, they believe in you. Thiary and Chris pour their heart into what they do, and you definitely feel it in every single session. 🥵

They push you when you need it, cheer you on when you’re doubting yourself, and make every workout feel like a win. I’m beyond grateful for the growth, the friendships, and the Built Body community. Grateful for all the hard work, laughs, and progress — Here’s to more memories, progress and more heavy lifts with my BBF fam 🖤🔥 Love you guys so much & can’t wait to hit that 2-year mark! 💪🏽

This place is awesome. I trained at their initial location across the street when it first opened so it’s exciting to experience the expansion first-hand. Chris and Thiary are both great trainers, super knowledgeable, always have great energy and most importantly create an environment where we feel confident in our fitness journey. They’ve created a great sense of community here and it’s awesome to also experience other events they host in the local area. This place is more than just a gym!!

I joined built body fitness at the end of September and I’m so happy I finally decided to. They put a lot of work and thought into each of their clients and their needs. They provide guidance throughout the workout and cheer you on while keeping the classes high energy. Seeing everyone’s progress around me is so motivating. They even reach out to check in on you and see how you’re doing/adjusting. They really care for and support each of their clients. (I say client but they always say built body fitness is a family and that’s something you can feel the instant you walk in). Super greatful to them for providing this space💛

I wanted to take a moment to share my transformative fitness journey, one that has been life-changing and continues to inspire me daily. Four years ago, I began this journey at 349 pounds, and today I’ve reached a personal low of 185 pounds, currently maintaining at 206 pounds. I had weight loss surgery on May 28, 2020, and I’m proud to say that I’ve kept the weight off for three years. In 2023, I underwent excess skin removal surgery, which took off 22 pounds of loose skin.

On March 22, 2024, I started with BBF, and it has been the greatest blessing in this chapter of my transformation. When I first began, I was diabetic, had high cholesterol, and was generally unhealthy—though at the time, I thought I was fine. Today, I no longer face any of those health challenges, and I’m amazed by how incredible I feel. I have more energy, improved mental clarity, and an overall sense of well-being that I never imagined possible.

The support I’ve received from Chris and Thiary has been unmatched. While I’ve worked with trainers before—“good” ones—nothing compares to their passion, knowledge, and unwavering guidance. They’ve helped me master the correct techniques and always make me feel comfortable asking questions. The energy they bring each morning is contagious, setting the tone for the day and pushing us to give our best. Not to mention, the music is always on point, adding to the electric atmosphere!

This journey hasn’t been easy, and some might say surgery was the "easy route," but I can confidently say there is no such thing. These surgeries took a lot from me mentally, especially as I battled body dysmorphia. But now, I recognize and embrace my hard work and dedication. Thanks to BBF, I know things will only continue to improve from here.

Walking into BBF that day was one of the best decisions I’ve made. I truly believe in trusting the process, and I’m excited for what’s to come. 🖤🙏🏽

Chris and Thiary are the kindest humans you’ll ever meet. The cleanliness of their gym is top-tier. All the trainers were welcoming and made me feel comfortable. They answered all my questions about nutrition perfectly with thought and care. Absolutely recommend. Best gym ever.

The best decision i made was joining BBF. I'm 3 months in the program and have gained 6 lbs of muscle and lose 4% body fat. The coaches are amazing! They will teach you the proper form of weightlifting safely. I'm excited to hit my fitness goals in the next 6 months. I highly recommend BBF.

I am so glad I took the initiative to join BBF. I was looking for a gym where I would be able to start my fitness journey and gain knowledge on proper weightlifting. Thiary and Chris are amazing coaches who really focus on making sure you get the best of your training sessions. They take their time to teach you to perfect your form & motivate you past your limit. I have already gained strength and have learned so much and I’m only at the beginning of my journey with BBF. My only regret is not joining sooner.

This gym is incredible and unlike any other gym I've been to! I just had my 2nd baby 2 months ago, and both Chris and Thiary have done an exceptional job of helping me slowly build my strength up again, and easing me in to each workout! I've been going for 4 weeks now and I feel a tremendous difference in my overall strength compared to my first week in! I look forward to coming in to complete my workouts each week. Everyone is so friendly, attentive and so amazing at paying attention to detail. Thank you guys for all that you do!!!!

I had the privilege of training at Built Body Fitness for the past six months, and I must say it has been an incredibly rewarding experience. The knowledge and progress I've gained during this time have exceeded my expectations. The trainers are not only knowledgeable but also incredibly motivating. Signing up to train here has been the best decision I ever made!

I have trained in many different gyms over the years and never had real results in terms of muscle and weight gain. For 6 months I closely monitored Thiary's social media and saw many client success stories in terms of loosing weight and gaining definition and I have to say I was impressed!
I told myself I have nothing to lose but try and see the transformation for myself. I started to train (June) 3-4 times a week with Bult Body Fitness and it was the best decision I ever made.
Not only did I see the difference in my muscle mass and gained weight but I also have developed this love for working out, self confidence, hanging out with amazing group of people, even noticed I drink way more water than usual. The results came after 3 months.
Thiary, Chris, Lindsay and Maritza really care about you and when I say they are in your face I literally mean it. They micro observe your every move and make sure you are doing your workout correctly without hurting yourself. You defiantly get the full attention even when you think they are not looking and you start slacking you will heat Thiary from across the gym "lets go Lori!" Do they kick my butt? Absolutely!!! But I don't mind because I love what I see in the mirror!
Their new gym is amazing! Super clean, spacious and the right type of equipment to hit every muscle group.
Over the past few months I became super close with Thiary and Chris and as a small business owner myself I admire their determination, professionalism and honesty when it comes to business that I decided to closely work with them in referral partnership. Built Body Fitness is a gym I regularly recommend our clients. I even talked my daughter in training with me.
I highly recommend Built Body Fitness for all your body fitness and remember you are investing into your body and health. There is no price to that!

Built Body Fitness (BBF) is an amazing place! They are very motivating and energetic. They will educate you on fitness and create a unique plan for your needs. I witnessed my boyfriend gain strength after surgery for a torn meniscus. He had one on one sessions with Chris. By the time he returned to the workforce he was physically ready thanks to BBF. We highly recommend you check them out! -Andres & Brenda

I’ve been training with Thiary for 5 years now. I can’t imagine training with anyone else. She pushes me to do my best and because of that I’m in the best shape ever. The environment that her and Chris have created at their gym makes going there so enjoyable. I can’t recommend this place enough.

I learned about Built Body Fitness through an old friend via her IG page. She posted her workouts and how Thiary and Chris help her reach her fitness goals @ home. I then went to try it out for myself to see if I would like it and I ended up joining after my free class. Thiary and Chris are super helpful and knowledgeable. They make sure you are doing the work out properly, so you don't hurt yourself as well as make modifications for each person individually. I honestly enjoy going to my class and working out here. I normally struggle with going to the gym just because I am self-conscious but not at BBF. You feel like you are part of a community, and everyone is super friendly. Definitely give it a try if you are looking to become healthier and more active.

I have been with BBF for over a year now, and I love how consistent Thiary and Chris have been! I started my fitness journey during COVID, I trained independently for a few years but found myself losing motivation, getting bored, and not pushing myself as hard as I should. BBF changed all of those things. I needed that external motivation to continue challenging myself and I have continued to get stronger every week while perfecting my form on exercises. This gym is for all levels, you will feel comfortable, welcomed, and proud of yourself during every session. If you are hesitant to try, just contact either Chris or Thiary, or try out your first session for free! There are two other trainers, Maritza and Lizzie - who are so sweet and kind too :)

Build Body fitness is one of the best gyms out there! Thiary and Chris are both amazing. They have taught me so much about proper weight lifting and I’ve seen incredible results. If you’re looking to tone up and overall feel more comfortable in your body I 100% recommended this gym. I started off not knowing anything about the gym. I felt intimidated at regular commercial gyms because I didn’t know where to start. If you’re anything like me start here! Trust me the environment is welcoming and they offer personal and group training. It’s a perfect place to meet new friends who also want to have a healthier lifestyle.

Built Body Fitness is an incredible place. Thiary and Chris are professional trainers who are patient and highly knowledgeable who pushes you to your limits. I came in with two health injuries including the knee and neck, yet they were able to assess and give me proper body mechanics which I appreciated! Ever since I have joined this gym, my physique has greatly improved within 2 months. Being a mother of 4, my waistline, butt and thighs has blossomed! I really like that BFF has flexibility with their working hours to accommodate those with tough schedules. Scheduling is easy to plan ahead and cancel when needed. I recommend BFF to everyone who are looking for amazing trainors and wants to see results! 😻💙🍑

One of the best decisions I’ve made was to join Built Body Fitness! I’ve never joined a group class and was hesitant at first. But since day 1, Thiary was welcoming and motivational to where I felt comfortable just after 1 session. After signing up, Thiary and other trainers like Chris and Lizzie has been continuously transforming me in ways I never thought I was capable of! I genuinely love the coaching when it comes to proper weight lifting and pushing you to the point you never realized you can reach. BFF is efficient with individualized workout plans, proper weightlifting techniques and explaining how the physical anatomy works. Energy level is always high in the gym and motivational. As a nurse, I work many hours but joining BFF has been my happy place and a way to de-stress while also achieving my physique goals.

I have been training with thiary for a few years now. I have done online coaching and now in person. When doing online, thiary was always on top of everything and was able to still form check me. She modified everything during my pregnancy and made working out smooth. I am now a few months In doing in person and OMG I love it. I have never enjoyed working out more than I have since joining BBF. I can honestly say that my love for working out has come due to all the trainers at built body. I have met many new people here that are kind and helpful. BBF is a great place to workout with no judgment. This place is definitely worth it.

I discovered Thiary, Chris & Built Body Fitness (BBF) last year in September. While my main goal hasn’t been to loose weight rather to get stronger and have an active lifestyle, the weight loss has definitely been a bonus. I love the atmosphere that Thiary and Chris create at BBF. The work outs are all programmed to each individual and the knowledge Thiary and Chris have is amazing!
