This is the best gym I’ve ever been too. I’ve been to many gyms and just felt like a number, but at Zen Fitness they focus on what your individual goals are and help you reach them. They find out what your goals are and create a workout plan just for you!!!! Carley and the other trainers are the there for you. The one on one personal attention and focus is unlike any other. Definitely would recommend to anyone if they want to change their life and routine.

Highly recommend Zen fitness! I have been with Zen fitness for the past 6 months and have seen dramatic results. The one on one attention and specific fitness plans for your goals is remarkable. All of the trainers are truly there to push you and help you achieve whatever your goals are! I swore I would never be a runner and now I can run 4 miles! If you are looking for high intensity workout that produce results then don’t hesitate to head to Zen. Carly and all of the trainers truly care about their clients you will never be just another number. Best decision I have made for my health!

Excellent training suggestions to do on your own when not training, as well as healthy eating advice and recipes. If your looking to improve your health, physique and your life, Zen Fitness is the place!

Way before I believed it in me, these guys can see the best, most confident, and chiseled version of myself. Zen Fitness has challenged me to the very last rep, and gotten me to the strongest I’ve ever been.I’m a return customer from a few years back and Zen Fitness always gets me great results. I had a list to check off this year: get off the couch and workout consistently. And oh yeah---I needed to get ready for ski season 2020! So, I called up Zen Fitness to get started. I just wish I would have done it sooner. All the trainers are kind and friendly and the gym is a comfortable and supportive environment.I’ve been working with Randy! Yay! He’s attentive, flexible, and a great teacher. I never knew the importance and challenge of stability training before. Having that as part of my fitness program has given me the best foundation for my strength goals, recovering from an ankle sprain, and preventing injury in my new fitness journey.Can I tell you what I can do now? Other than being able to do 80+ full push-ups in a workout (sometimes on a bosu or 2 medicine balls), I have arm muscles to brag to my husband lol, I’m happier, and I’m more curious than afraid of challenges.I learned that Fear will only keep you from the best surprise you didn’t know you can have-–to see how strong you really are. And these guys helped me get there. Definitely recommend checking out Zen Fitness!Adding to my original review-- I've work with Tristan also, and he's super awesome as well! He's a great teacher and his lessons on breathing and form, stick with you and go a long way. Thanks for the wise tips Tristan!

I’ve been working with Carly for the past 3.5 months and have already lost 35 lbs. I have worked with many personal trainers and fitness couches in the past and I’ve never had such great results in a relatively short amount of time before! More importantly, Carly’s approach to nutrition and fitness is so simple and the easy to follow. Carly genuinely cares that you succeed and is very knowledgeable at what he does. I’m so happy that I’ve found Zen Fitness, I have more confidence and my body feels better than ever, I only wish that I found them sooner!

I came to Zen knowing nothing about personal fitness except that there is no one-size-fits-all approach, and that not knowing what you’re doing in a gym can hurt you. The experience has been exceptional. My trainer, Randy, excels at personal training and creates a fun and challenging environment that I always look forward to. He cares about his clients and you can tell he wants their success above all else. I’m grateful for the better quality of life and the great people I’ve met. A truly rewarding experience and echoes throughout every area of your life.

I started off 2019 with zero self-love and no confidence and Zen Fitness helped me find both of those. Over the year, I've trained with many of the experts, but mostly Carly. Not only have I learned to love myself and have confidence, but there has been a huge improvement in my strenght and mental health! I am in the best shape I have been in in years and I have found a love for working out and clean eating. The trainers are motivational and give you that extra push when you need it - so there is never a dull moment. Zen Fitness is the place to be(=

Peak health and performance can rarely be achieved in life on our own. Accountability and coaching are the key to lasting change and the secret to true success. Carly and the Zen Fitness team have helped us find the answers we were searching for. They have profoundly changed our lives well beyond just the physical state of our bodies. The Harper Family

I have trained with Daniel at Zen Fitness for over a year now and have seen significant improvement in my strength, cardiovascular fitness, and form during exercise. Daniel is an excellent motivator and a knowledgeable trainer, and his workouts are well-designed, challenging, and never the same. He consistently pushes me to do my best while still having an intuitive sense of my limits. Highly recommend Zen and Daniel!

Blanca (one of the trainers at Zen) helped me get out of a long rut of eating badly & not exercising. She was extremely motivating and designed every workout carefully in order to work around my back issues. I also worked out on occasion with Tanner, another Zen trainer who designed fun & challenging workouts. I met my weight loss goals & exceeded my muscle growth goals with Zen's help, and I'm so grateful that their guidance has helped me maintain since. All of the staff are extremely helpful & encouraging. I would highly recommend Zen Fitness to anyone who needs some help losing weight or just leading a healthier life.
