Secor Strength has been a driving force for helping me get back on the right track for a healthy lifestyle. Miguel has been a game changer keeping me honest and constantly pushing me to my best. I’ve been a member for almost 2 years and the difference is night and day. Miguel is 100% the best trainer hands down.

Our daughters have attended Secor Strength for the past 5 years. The Secor’s have always treated our daughters with the utmost respect while encouraging and pushing them to work hard inside and outside of the gym. We have noticed so many positive changes in our daughters during this time! They make more responsible eating and drinking choices, love working out, and have improved their overall mental health since attending Secor Strength! They always want to go and never get tired of going. The Secor’s have made such an impact on their lives and we can’t thank them enough!

I've been training with Miguel for over a year, and it's been a fantastic experience! He meets you at your level and creates safe, personalized, effective workouts that build all around real strength. This gym isn't just for heavy lifters-it's also for 50 something women looking to stay strong, fit, and active. I've felt totally challenged and supported in the best way. The atmosphere and Miguel are welcoming, and the results are real. Highly recommend!

I’ve been going to this gym since January and it’s honestly been one of the best things I’ve done for myself. I started with personal training and eventually worked up the courage to try a group class—which I never thought I’d do—and now I love it! The workouts are always different, which keeps things interesting, and the atmosphere is super welcoming and motivating. I always feel better after a session. Highly recommend!

My husband started at Secor Strength about 3 years ago, he absolutely love it there, found his lifting crew, and many life long friendships. I started coming to Secor a year ago, I was a bit hesitant because I didn’t know what to expect. Glad I gave it a go. To me, a gym is more than a place to workout, it’s a place to have friendships, and a support system that is far beyond any gym I’ve ever been to. Miguel and Allie make the gym what it is, very family oriented. This was one of the many things that have sold me on the gym. I have two young children and sometimes need to bring them with me for a workout. There are not a lot of gyms when where you can bring your littles and workout. My son who will be 6 next month started the elementary class last year absolutely loved it. This class taught our guy so much discipline, accountability, and team building. There have been quite a few times Miguel has been coaching others and has allowed our son to Mock Coach. Cannot say enough about this gym. Thank you for all the hard work you and your family put into Secor Strength.

I've been coming to Secor Strength for 2 years. Miguel took my weight training to a whole new level. When I was told I needed brain surgery to be free of trigeminal neuralgia Miguel got me in great physical and mental shape to make a quick recovery and do what most won't. He was one of the first people to check on me when I came out of surgery. Secor Strength is like family. Something special is happening there!

The feeling of family is what sets Secor Strength apart. Miguel is a great motivator and the gym is full of positiver energy no matter your level of fitness. The ages range from grade school, middle school, high school , college, young adults, to us older guys/gals just trying to keep the years from getting the best of us. You won’t find a more accommodating gym. Miguel has the knowledge and gladly helps you achieve your goals. Whether you just need a little guidance or want full training sessions i highly recommend Secor Strength.

Secor Strength has helped me not only physically but mentally as well. Miguel cares about every single person that walks into the gym. Secors had such a great impact on my life. I highly recommend Secor Strength if you’re looking for something to help you get stronger mentally and physically, as well as the people there making it so worth going. I show up ready to get better each day, and leave feeling like I accomplished so much! I’m so glad I get the opportunity to be part of such an amazing thing!

Secor Strength has become such an important part of my life. The gym isn't just a place to train but it's somewhere you can feel seen, supported, and genuinely cared about. Miguel does an awesome job of making a space where everyone feels like they belong no matter their experience or fitness level. Not only have I grown physically but as well as my confidence and mentality. The people there make it easy to show up and give my best. It's an overall amazing place, and I leave feeling better each time. I'm really glad I get to be apart of it.

Training with Miguel has been one of the best investments I've made in my health and confidence. As a woman in my 70's with osteoporosis, I needed someone who not only understood the importance of bone strength and balance, but someone who could guide me safely and effectively. I'm happy to say my bone density has improved after training with Miguel for just over a year now. It's exciting! Each session is different, engaging and tailored to my needs. I honestly can say I really look forward to the work-outs! I love how he challenges me and pushes me to work hard. I never feel that I am at risk for injury. I can feel myself getting stronger and more self-assured. He is careful, encouraging and knowledgable! He is clearly passionate about helping people improve their lives. It feels amazing to be part of the gym family at Secor Strength! I hope to continue to train with Miguel for many years to come!

I’ve been going to Secor Strength for a little over a year and I feel the best I’ve felt in a long time. Miguel does an awesome job of creating a program to fit your schedule and he works with people at different stages of their fitness journey. If you are looking for a new gym or trainer, a spot check on your current fitness program, or wanting to start taking your health and fitness more seriously, Secor Strength is the place to do it.

Secor Strength has easily become a favorite place of mine throughout the week. Miguel especially has been someone to hold me accountable when it comes to training while providing a safe and fun workout environment. I never leave the gym without sharing a smile or laugh with at least one person in there!

Secor Strength has helped me regain the strength that I lost with surgery and given me the ability to feel as though I can do some of the things I wasn’t sure I would ever be able to do post-op while also providing a safe and welcoming environment to workout!

Secor is an amazing facility.
My 12yr old has been going for almost 2yrs and has grown immensely inside and out.
Miguel has taught him self confidence along with strength training.
It’s not just a gym, it’s a community and I’m so grateful for everything my son learns from Miguel.

Awesome facility!! I can’t say enough for the gym with extensive equipment both free weights and machines. More important than the equipment is Miguel who is always present to assist with anything including guidance on equipment selection and form. There is open space for functional cardio including my love/hate of push/pull sleds. To top it off, the addition of the sauna is a recovery game changer. Phenomenal recovery with 12 minutes of 220 degrees. Oh, the bonus, no knuckleheads to dampen the uplifting vibe!! What sold me to try Miguel was his work with my son over many months in preparation for his firefighter physical test. He provided much more than solid functional training advice, he provided encouraging positive holistic mind/body support. Will always be grateful for this!!

Secor Strength has been a game-changer for me. Miguel is not just a great trainer; he’s a true coach who genuinely cares about your goals and overall well-being. Since working with him, I’ve seen incredible progress—not just in strength and fitness, but in becoming a healthier, more balanced man. Miguel takes the time to understand where you are, where you want to be, and builds a program that pushes you while keeping you safe and motivated. His positive energy and dedication make every session something I look forward to. If you’re serious about improving your health and transforming your life, I can’t recommend Miguel and Secor Strength enough.

My 4 younger kids are elementary, middle school, and high school age. They’ve been attending Secor for a year and a half. Our 12 year old daughter just had the highest hitting velocity in her softball group at Nationals, and we believe that the strength training program is part of what has helped her to achieve that. What Secor teaches goes beyond just physical strengthening. My kids have also developed a stronger mental mindset. They are taught to take care of their body in their daily nutrition and their thoughts, and they are encouraged to show respect to others. Secor has helped our 8 yeas old son work on some behavior problems that he was having at school. Their love for the program was so contagious that I decided I wanted to start attending at the beginning of the year. I will admit that it was a bit out of my comfort zone, but everyone was so welcoming and friendly. I came in after having shoulder surgery and moves were adapted for me as I started to regain strength. I love that this is something that we share together as a family. On a weekly basis we talk about the things that we are learning and doing within the program. It is an investment that we choose to make in our busy lives to help us to thrive on a daily basis, and I would highly recommend reaching out to the program if you have any interest at all. Don’t let fear stop you. My only regret is that I wish I would’ve started sooner!

Gym has went above and beyond to provide me with my personal needs from a leg press to a new sauna for pain relief. Its hard to find a gym that wants to train the way I do but this place provides that. Its a place where family and friends come together. So if your looking for a place to train and get you to the next level, this is the place hands down. My kids won't go any other place to learn how to train the proper way.
