Coach Tom is amazing. He’s a super friendly coach who holds you accountable and wants the best for you. He has been my coach for about 6 months as we are preparing for a show in the new year. I have seen great results with him and am excited to see how I continue to progress. I’ve really enjoyed his attention to detail on nutrition specifically, and he is always informative when I have questions. He is always quick to respond and always does what he says he is going to.

It’s been a goal of mine for 8 years to be a bikini competitor. In January I decided to give it a shot, and call AZ Bodybuilding. Right from the start, everyone was friendly and I felt good about them. Shanita P worked with me to accomplish my goal. I competed in July and I’m soglad I did. It’s such a fun sport and I can’t wait to work with Shanita to continue to improve. Thanks Shanita and AZ Bodybuilding!

I've been training at AZ Bodybuilding for nearly a year now. Tom has been a phenomenal motivator and guide on my journey to get in shape. As someone who attends AZ Bodybuilding to get in shape, but not compete, I can't think of a single place I'd recommend more. Not only is Tom amazing, but the entire team too. Coach Ty, Lauren, and Shanita are all a blast to be around, and I can see they're as invested in their clients success as Tom is in mine. If you're looking for a trainer for whatever reason, look no further than AZ Bodybuilding.

I started working out at AZ Bodybuilding in July with Shanita I am feeling stronger and confident that I will achieve my goals. My clothes are fitting differently and Shanita pushes you to the limit of your abilities with every workout. Each workout is tailored to you as you receive individual attention in a small group setting. Shanita holds me accountable and a great motivator who genuinely cares. I highly recommend attending this veteran owned fitness gym.

The changes I have seen in my body have been amazing, I owe it to Shanita!! Thank you for giving me my body back!!!Sincerely,Ice Queen

I have been looking for the right fit, the right time and place, the right people and failed so many times with gyms and wasted memberships. All I can say now is FINALLY!!!AZBB has the right fit, the right people for the right time and place in my life I needed this for health and physical accomplishments!! My coach Lauren is so awesome she gives off this confidence and energy you need to succeed as soon as you walk in. AZBB gym and the team there is 5 star! My results so far in just 30 days is worth it.

This is an update. I wrote the last review after training with Shanita for only a few months. I have now been training with her for almost 2 years! I hit my ideal weight within the first 6 months and have exceeded my goals. I feel better and look better than I ever imagined. The boost in self esteem has impacted every facet of my life and greatly improved my marriage! I can’t thank her enough. My husband can’t thank her enough (but still does every chance he gets!)I train with Shanita and love it! I have done little exercise since having my son 6 years ago. That is further compounded by my age (I'm over 50) and a demanding career. I was worried that this just wouldn't work for me. However, Shanita listened. Listened to my concerns and my fears then helped me set goals to get me started on the path to success. She also works with me to fit training into my demanding schedule. Top notch experience! I still have much to do but am enjoying (yes I said enjoying) every step. I already feel healthier, stronger and more confident. A true gift!

Shatina has been my personal trainer for over six months, and I have enjoyed every minute of it. She is serious about her job and she respects your time and money. She’s truly knows her stuff and is a fabulous motivator.She stays current with the latest trends and innovations in weightlifting and nutrition.She makes exercising fun and also interesting – explaining what we’re doing and why. During my time with Shatina, my body fat percent has decreased 14%, I’ve gain noticeable muscle mass, and I’ve never felt or looked better! True transformation ☺️!

I had a goal that I’ve been trying to reach since I had my 3rd and last kid. I had taken myself the furthest I could in fitness. I needed an expert, I needed someone who knew my body type. A coworker told me about AZ Bodybuiding and I sent an email on a Sunday and the next day Shanita Jackson-Patterson (Trainer) called me and we talked about me, my goals, expectations.... She wanted to meet and we did😊 Meeting Shanita I was greeted with a smile and compliment. I told her I wanted to look like a bikini competitor without competing ( now I will compete this March 2019 because all this hard work is paying off and we need to show the world what determination on my end and Trainer Shanita’s knowledge and creativity can do!) So it’s been 5 months and I look the best I’ve looked in 13 years. My confidence, my self esteem has increased and I can not put a price on that.Training with a Shanita is challenging and I love it. She watches my form and corrects me, she feels my muscles during the exercise to make sure I’m engaging the correct muscle, she listens to me if I have an ache. She explains the what and the why questions I may have. I am never bored and it’s not repetitive. Her personality is warm, inviting, hilarious, patient and wonderfully unique. A beautiful spirit! I can’t say enough about her training and her as a person. As for the whole staff to include Coach Ty the owner are friendly and engaging. The facility is always clean and has more then enough equipment to maximize your results. I have made life long friendships in the short amount of time being there. I trust them whole heartedly with my transformation into a bikini competitor. When I move I plan on staying with them online because I know they know what they are doing. Once you’ve experienced the best of something, or what we say in the military “the standard” (meaning the highest of expectations/performance; nothing else will do. Thank you Trainer Shanita, Coach TY, Coach Tom for making this a place I look forward to going to every week.
