I have had the pleasure of getting to know several of the staff at BFF! I am currently working with Pam to help achieve some fitness goals that I have been struggling with and she immediately made an impact! I am also a massage therapist and regularly refer my clients here who are seeking to improve their fitness. The owners Mark and Mike have done an incredible job at curating a fantastic team! GO SEE THEM!

Bay Functional Fitness is a great facility to workout at. The gym is spotless, well stocked with tons of functional equipment. Most importantly, the trainers are experts, friendly, professional, and help drive results.

Very unreliable no answer when called on the phone, no answer on intercom and just overall disappointed with the lack of urgency.

Michael Smartt is beyond great. I worked with him before the pandemic, and started again when BFF moved to the new location, which I love (it's small enough and big enough, with easy parking). Michael knows so much about the body, can chase down any injury, prevents others; he's helped me prep for big back packing trips, and stay healthy and strong for every day life. He's even given me exercises that have helped my migraines! He puts together a well-rounded, smart workout, and he's also great to talk to. I want every one I know to start working with Michael!

Totally recommend BFF! It's a friendly place, with really skilled and knowledgeable trainers. I started training with Mark Lynn after going through knee surgery, thinking I'd just work with him for a few months until I could get back to doing my own thing, and 22 years later, he's still my trainer and I am so glad. When I want to push and work hard, he'll take me there. When I am injured, he's patient and helpful. And honestly, I've never had the same workout twice. In 22 years!!! He's got a big ole bag 'o tricks, and they're all great. Their new space is super nice - brick walls and big windows, but intimate at the same time. I was worried about parking but it's been super easy. A big thumbs up!

Super innovative, knowledgeable about physiology and encouraging in a non patronizing way. Just very realistic about setting goals with clients to help you achieve maximum wellness first and fitness as a part of that goal. Brilliant team.

I have been training with Mark Lynn for several years now. He has helped me to achieve and maintain a very healthy life, and we've enjoyed an ongoing conversation about music and health. I like the space, and enjoy bantering with other clients and trainers, who have become familiar over time.

My Google phone detected that I walked by this business in a strip mall. I can verify that it does exist (as of a few weeks ago). I remember the name. Thanks smartphones!

I have been seeing Lisa for about 5 years and find her incredibly patient and encouraging. I have a physical disability and am sure I'm not the most exciting person to train, but Lisa is always cheery, upbeat, and extremely encouraging. She does a lot of continuing education courses and brings new ideas to our sessions which are never the same. Lisa has a wealth of references/referrals in the health and wellness space if you are interested. She truly seems to love what she does!

Bay Functional Fitness is owned and operated by some terrifically talented trainers. Lisa Vonnegut has been training me every week since early 2014, and I've been working with Mark Lynn almost as long. The transformation of my strength, stamina, and daily functional fitness has been amazing. Lisa takes the time to understand what I want to accomplish and then uses her expert knowledge, instruction and techniques to help me get there. She has taken a genuine interest in my health, my mind, my fitness and my overall well-being. My workouts are varied and appropriately challenging, plus a lot of fun. I can't recommend her work highly enough. Mark provides consistent guidance and coaching, and he constantly mixes up our workouts to keep them interesting and fun. When I finish a session, I know that I've worked my body in just the right places and amounts. I feel fortunate to work with Mark ongoing. I've never been someone who looked forward to exercise or physical challenges and thanks to Lisa and Mark, I actually look forward to our workouts and time together. Bravo to both!

Lisa shares deep practical knowledge of how the body works, genuine concern for your progress, and a truly engaging personality that makes her sessions fun. She wants to help you do the things you want to do and function the way you want to function. Workouts are tailored to your capability and focus on what's right for you. Lisa is very focused on how you respond to each new exercise and works relentlessly to ensure you perform the exercise to receive the maximum benefit and prevent injury. I'm healthier because of her.

The trainers at Bay Functional Fitness are outstanding! I've been seeing Lisa for the past five years. She's helped me gain strength and confidence, coached me through several injuries and is a joy to work with. I especially value her knowledge about the way neurological issues impact physical strength and overall health.
