First, I would like to start off by saying rec shop is amazing. All the trainers there are super sweet and experienced. Luckily for me I got to train with the owner fani. Fani is an amazing trainer. She explains everything thoroughly and shows you step-by-step. It helped that she did that because I have ADHD and I have a hard time focusing and picking up on things but she was very patient with me and took her time to explain it to me until I understood.. I've lost so much weight and I'm starting to feel confident again, I owe it all to rec shop! Everyone there is so nice and welcoming. Overall, my experience was amazing. I would 10 out of 10 recommend.

I have been a member since March. The 6 AM class is a great way to start the day. REC Shop has several trainers and each one has a different style and approach to teaching proper form and motivating class members to get the most out of each workout. Each class is run flexibly enough for members of various training levels to work out together and still get a personalized workout. The trainers are good at providing modifications on the fly so that everyone benefits equally from the time spent. Each month the routines are changed up, which keeps the workouts from becoming routine. There is a good balance of focus on strength and resistance training, mobility and speed, and endurance / conditioning. I have definitely seen progress towards my goals of increasing my strength, power, muscle growth and overall fitness.

In May 2022, I joined the boot camp classes at REC SHOP Training Facility. Earlier this year, in March 2023, Fani (The Best PT) somehow convinced me that it was about time to start Personal Training.It has been the best decision that I have made!With Fani’s & the REC SHOP Team’s help, my form is so much better (I had no form; they’ll teach you), my posture has gotten better, my physique (almost looks like William Levi’s), and my CONFIDENCE level is through the roof.REC SHOP is a unique gym. Family oriented, the vibe, the music, the culture in general is like no other gym.Sign up for boot camp classes or Personal Training at REC SHOP Training Facility! What are you waiting for!

I've been at Rec Shop for over a year now. Everyone is so welcoming and sweet, down to the owner Fani, the trainers, and people who attend this gym. I've grown so much confidence in myself and my body since attending this gym. My form has improved greatly in the exercises I do, thanks to all the trainers. I attend group training classes and every trainer hypes you up, guides you to have correct form, and also repeats the exercises in the circuit when you forget (which is me daily lol). I now enjoy coming to the gym daily and live the progress I've made in muscle and toning my body. If you're thinking of joining, do it! You won't regret it.

I have been training at REC since 5/21. I cannot express how welcoming, supportive and encouraging the staff and members are. There are many fitness journeys and level of fitness but you feel welcomed and part of team at REC. It's nothing like any other training facility or gym that I've worked out in. They offer classes, private training, small group training. It's a great place to start your fitness journey, you will not feel out of place or out of sorts. Which is always the biggest hurdle when going to the gym. The coaches are support encouraging.

I have been coming to Rec shop for almost a year When I started I weight about 235 with hard work and dedication I was able to drop my to 194 witch is 41 ,pounds. The coaches will give you the tools that you need to be successful in your fitness journey is up to you do the work and watch what you eat and drink . I highly recommend to get a personal trainer they help you correct form and they cater to your personal requirements. The reason why I keep coming back because it's feels like a second home and every one treats you like family.

THE NEXT CHAPTER IN MY LIFE IS CALLED HEALTHY & HAPPY.I can distinctly remember the first day I walked into the REC Shop gym.Immediately I got the feeling of, “this is such a happy place!” I was introduced to the owner Fani. She made me feel welcomed and comfortable all at once. What struck me the most about Fani was her genuine love for all her clients. There was sincerity in her concern for their physical well being.I am in my 60s, and that was a concern for me. Fani reassured me to give REC Shop a try. That every work out could be modified. I had to dig really deep to walk into the gym with all these younger clients but again they all made me feel very comfortable. Now, they all tell me i inspire them! I did a trial workout for a month, and that month turned into the best 15 months ever.I know Fani has great intuition in choosing her trainers. The trainers follow her lead in knowledge, communication, passion and energy for what they do. Always patient with me, for small and big accomplishments they cheer me on. My coaches know what I am capable of & always push me to do more than I do. And I trust them!I could go on and on about the Rec Shop Gym. It’s cleanliness, amazing trainers, great vibe. Good experiences.My biggest accomplishment is after 13 years on high blood pressure meds, my Doctors have taken me completely off BP medications.My Drs at St Jude Med Center in Diamond Bar are extremely proud of me! And wanted to hear all about my gym!!!Hands down one of the best choices I have made. If this is possible for me, it can be for you too. I still have weight to lose & I will continue on my fitness journey, life is just to precious not to!

Love this gym!! I attended the grand re-opening/expansion this weekend and did the 30 minute "Glutes of Steel" class. My buns were on fire and no I'm not talking about grilling hamburgers. By the end of the class my old gluteus maximus was newness awesomeness. Now I can crush small fruit with my legs and when I jump the clap of my chiseled cheeks break the sound barrier with a satisfying ku-chunk sound like a cowboy swinging a whiplash. Thanks Rec Shop for my newfound confidence in my badonkadonk.But seriously though this gym is perfect, so much space, brand new equipment and all of the trainers are really nice. The owners Fani and her husband Valin are amazing and have really put care into making this gym a great experience for people. They are also really sweet, nice people and I feel happy being a part of their gym as a client for their personal training program. Fani has been helping me with strength training and after a few weeks I am already seeing and feeling the positive results on my body! She has been very encouraging and helpful during my workouts and has made me feel welcome and comfortable here right from the start!I have also trained with coach Angelina and she is amazing! She's super nice, knowledgeable and makes you feel heard and seen whenever you are struggling with a workout and has helped me find the extra push I need to finish a set or go for more reps. I also love how she integrates a bit of a mindfulness approach and showing gratitude to your body during and after workouts as that's something I try to practice in my everyday life. This gym has been the perfect boost I need to feel better about myself, my body, and my mental health has been improving since I started. I can't wait for my next workout!!!

I started at REC Shop back in September 2021. I feel like my form needed soo much help, along with my physique and confidence. 6 months later, I feel so much better about myself, my eating and working out habits have been healthier and more consistent... I have all the lovely trainers to thank for that! All the trainers are always trying to help everyone be their better and healthier versions..The environment at REC is always motivating, uplifting, and so friendly! & my favorite thing from is that it is never a dull workout when I'm there! I love REC Shop & hate that it took me so long to find my fav gym!

I’ve been a member of Rec Shop since June 2021. Initially, I was glad to find that the members here were friendly so I felt comfortable coming back. I attend class 6 days a week - that is how much I love my gym. I love it because it is challenging, but not ridiculously difficult to the point you can get injured. You choose your own weights so you can decide how much you want to push yourself. The instructors are passionate about their jobs and teach each class with motivation. They correct your form to help you target the right muscles but allow you modifications if needed. I am feeling so much better about myself now that I am stronger, and healthier. I can do things today I could not do months ago - like jump squats. I have dropped a size on blouses, and I am excited to continue my transformation over the rest of the year. Thank you Rec Shop!

Hands down the best choice I’ve made is training at REC shop. I started attending REC shop a few months ago with a goal; to improve my overall lifestyle. I can honestly say I have gained more confidence in working out and in myself. My eating habits have improved, I am way stronger than when I started. Overall I am happy with my results thanks to coach Fani and her team. I have no plans on quitting anytime soon!REC shop is my second home (literally there almost everyday), the environment is friendly, encouraging, the trainers are amazing. I highly recommend REC SHOP!

Before having joined the RecShop family I had a gymmembership with a regular gym. My motivation wasslim to none since the only thing I knew was theelliptical and stair-master. I had NO clue how to workany of the equipment and personal training was outof the question, I didn't think it was reasonable to spend hundreds for only 4 sessions a month, it wasn't going to happen. I decided to try something different and I'm SO happy and grateful I did. My life has been transformed from night to day. Not only do I feel fit but most importantly I'm healthier. One of the many great things you will love about RecShop is that there is a coach helping you each step of the way, making sure the exercise is being done properly to ensure your well-being/safety. If you feel uncomfortable doing an exercise, it can be modified for you. And if you are a competitive athlete and like to push yourself, they would be able to meet your needs and help you reach your goals as well. RecShop is by far the best gym I've ever been to and don't ever plan on returning to a traditional gym again. The environment, members and Coaches are the most supportive and encouraging bunch ever! We root each other on and always strive to make each other better. I have been a member with RecShop for over 6 years now and LOVE it!
