“If you are someone who appreciates structure & a sense of community, this Orange Theory location is perfect for you!I've been to quite a few gyms over the years, and I usually am someone who avoids franchises & chains. I actually ended up joining here because my best friend was getting married and we were holding each other accountable up until her wedding date... though her wedding has already passed, I stayed because I love the staff here!As someone who has worked in the fitness industry for about 9 years but fell off of the fitness train herself, I can honestly say the staff here have not only made me feel welcomed but have motivated and pushed me back into the fitness lifestyle that I miss dearly.I do have hip dysplasia which is one of the reasons why ! had to take a step back on my own fitness journey for a year or two but the coaches here have been so incredibly helpful with working around my limitations and give me modifications when needed. I never feel pressured to bite off more than I can chew here.I’d also like to give a HUGE shoutout to my absolute favorite coach here. Coach Kass! She’s the best!I know one of the most daunting things about going to regular box gyms is having to figure out what your workout set will be, but the best thing about OTF is that you don't have to think about anything else except showing up.If you're looking for a sign to join. Especially if you read this far, this is it! If you're unsure about whether this is the place for you, your first class is free and they really don't pressure you to join if it's not your vibe.So if you're actually still reading this far, what are you waiting for?!”

7627 Fair Oaks Blvd, Carmichael“If you are looking for "Global Gym", this place ain't it. What you will get is an old school "Average Joe" style gym with the basic equipment. But what is unique is the attentive staff and class atmosphere. You feel like you belong and everyone is encouraging. The coaches are always watching to ensure you are applying correct form to avoid injuries, but they will know if you are holding back and will call you out on it.”
“I switched over to this gym from Cal Fit and it's been a huge positive change for me. The gym has multiples of all of the machines and free weights I like to use, so I'm always able to get my workout done quickly and I'm never waiting to get on a bench or to use the leg press. It's clean and spacious, and the aerobics room is available to use if classes are not going on. The staff has always been nice and friendly as I come and leave the gym. Highly recommend this gym in the Carmichael area. It's already wiped away all of my anxiety that I had at my previous gym.”

6432 Fair Oaks Blvd, Carmichael“Great gym for kids and adults. I started training myself but after seeing great results in about 3-4 weeks I ended up enrolling both of my kids. Since then they have gotten in really good shape and enjoy training with their friends from school. They offer morning and evening classes and there's also open gym available as well. I would definitely recommend this gym for adults, and kids if you want to get in good shape.”

7941 Fair Oaks Blvd, Carmichael“In-Shape always smells nice and is very clean. The best part of this gym is the staff. They are always friendly and welcoming. Whenever I go to the gym and check in, I enjoy chatting with the staff, especially Raina. She was working on the very first day I went to this gym and has remembered my name ever since.”
“I have been working with Dylan Williams for about 5 months now. I followed him to Rocklin from Arden due to his care for my training. He is focused on me and my well being; not trying to make me look like him or be someone else. I was having some elbow issues and he referred me to Lea for some deep tissue massage and stretching to help with the issue and that is helping. I was very impressed the last time I showed up as they were working together to make sure we were all on the same page with what my issues were and what they were seeing. I really felt like I was getting personal care and a program designed around me and my issues. In-Shape is lucky to have both of them on staff. I could not be happier with my progress and they are giving me the tools I need to address what I want to improve on.”
“OK, I didn’t do gyms for a loooong time? Mainly because I didn’t like the factory/warehouse feel of chain gyms. I feel lucky to have found a place where I get fitness that fits my level. Convenient times.I’m doing a small group personal training with Dan! He’s such a fantastic coach ? Also love the cupping offering here, bruh ?. It’s different than others I’ve tried. Lots of class options, including yoga! I highly recommend this woman-owned gym! Super queer friendly too! ?”
