I have been a "member" of several gyms in and around San Diego. I felt a disconnect between staff/trainers and members. The moment I walked into Hardcore Fitness, March 2015, I became a part of a family of fitness, positivity and support. The program that the owners and trainers have comprised encourage a better lifestyle in and out of the gym. To date, I have lost over 50 lbs and gained a whole new sense of worth. I am grateful every day that my good friend invited me to experience the "5 Day Pass!"

Hardcore Fitness isn't just a gym, it's a place that helps you to become fit, teaches you how to eat to make the most of your work out and visibly gives you great results. I've been to many gyms over the years and I've never seen results as I have in the 10 months I've been here. The owners/trainers are wonderful! The workouts each day are designed to target different muscles, the trainers go over the exercises for each class and come around to not only challenge you but ensure that proper form is being used. My daughter introduced me to Hardcore Fitness and I can't thank her and Hardcore Fitness enough! I'm in the best shape of my life!

This place is amazing, so excited to have joined, they find a way to keep you motivated and pushing your limits more and more. The whole staff from front desk to trainers and management are first class, top notched. A special shout-out to Gaby! She’s the reason I joined.

It's an incredible all around gym that has a welcoming and warm atmosphere. After just one day of the five day free pass I signed up for a membership knowing that I was in the right place. All the trainers are amazing and very knowledgeable with training and encouraging you throughout the workout creating an environment that you can easily succeed and pass your goals. I have been attending for 5 weeks now and I am already down 10lbs and have noticed a huge difference in my body with tightening and toning. Don't cheat yourself out of an opportunity to excel and work on your mental and physical strength.

Ty is a jokester, but doesn't play when it comes to working out and will make sure you feel it. Chris won't bother you if you're doing the exercises properly, but is attentive if you need help. Justice believes if you can do the exercise too easily the weight isn't heavy enough. You leave his class cursing him out in a good way. Coach D is the cup of coffee you need in the morning. Even when he's tired he's full of energy and it keeps you going. Nico... I don't see him enough, but the couple times I did his workouts they're on point. Austin shows us he has strong abs by making us suffer in his warm ups. It's a good thing. Sam doesn't play in fight camp and I love it. I learned I have no coordination when it comes to punches. I feel like I missed one, but I probably never worked out with them. Daysi, Gabby, and Janae are sweethearts and it's always great to see them. And I look forward to being at HCF another year

Love my fit family, they have always made me feel welcomed since day one. Staff, trainers and members are great. Joining this gym has been the best decision I've ever made.

This is a wonderful gym! You actually see results and the trainers are attentive to form in order to challenge you but also make sure you don’t injure yourself. I always look forward to going to the gym and miss it when I’m out of town. Highly recommend!

I like that the instructors demonstrate the workouts and go through to make sure you're doing the exercises properly. I also like that they challenge you to do things you may not be comfortable doing. The other members are also very friendly and it just seems like good vibes all around. I am happy that I found this place! ~Ericka

I love this gym! Many times I have been a member of other gyms in my area and I lose motivation quickly as I feel lost in the weight room even though I know what to do. Hardcore keeps me on point! The trainers are amazing and you pretty much get a personal training experience at each class. You just show up and do the work. It’s a great community and I highly recommend joining! I even started bringing my teen son here. It’s worth it! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Best gym I've ever been to. Staff I'd fantastic, facilities are always clean! Trainers are always there to help, whether it's correcting my form or just pushing me throughout the workout. The camaraderie amongst other gym members is amazing. Can't say enough great things about this place.

Been a member since 2019, if you’re like me who doesn’t know anything or have minimal knowledge about lifting and proper form this is the gym for you! This is the gym where you workout with trainers who pay attention to your form and helps you achieve your fitness goals. All you have to do is show up, follow the workout on the board and leave with a happy face because you know you did great. I love this gym and the community it has created.

By far the best gym especially for muscle building! Their trainers are very motivating and will challenge you without getting hurt in the process!! Totally the gym for me!!! Come check them out!

In my 4 years of being part of Hardcore Fitness, I have gained a plethora of knowledge about lifting weights, proper form, and dieting. Having trainers lead the classes is so helpful because despite your level of experience, there is always something new to learn. This gym is for ANYONE...whether you have years of lifting experience or none at all. The trainers guide you through proper form for movements, explaining HOW/WHY you work certain muscle groups together, and genuinely care about your well being. They modify movements for anyone with injuries/unable to perform the exercise. I am not kidding when I say all skill levels are welcome. Hardcore Fitness is more than a gym, its a community full of welcoming people who celebrate eachother's wins. If you are looking for a gym but do not know where to start, this is your sign to join Hardcore FItness Convoy!!!

Member since 2016 I don’t think there’s any other gym better than Hardcore Fitness Downtown

Has to be a joke, I called ready to sign up for a class, ready to work out, Manager said no because I needed to do a tour of the facility first. Then I said, my wife does not speak fluent english, she said that it wouldnt work out because my wife needs fluent english in order to sign up... I didnt know u needed to be fluent to carry weights.

I've been involved in fitness for half my life. I've seen a lot of gyms. I've used quite a few trainers. The thing I find most unique about this gym is the sense of family- there's a tremendous amount of support and positivity. There's a variety of trainers (and playlists), but they are all knowledgeable, motivational and kind. They genuinely care, want to help and it's fun getting to know them- they all bring something to the table and have unique teaching styles. I really like how they focus on nutrition- they provide both sides of the equation for fitness. They also keep things interesting and continually shock the body with different workouts every week. Huge cardio focus one week. Heavy lifting the other. I also like the fact that they cycle muscle groups so you can go many days in a row. There's a variety of class times throughout the day and classes are offered 7 days a week. While I definitely could get a good workout at the gym, I wouldn't be having such fun, I wouldn't have the structure I need to stay accountable, I wouldn't be meeting all these great people, and I wouldn't be able to keep it as fresh and variable on my own. That's the service this community provides- challenge, support, validation, structure accountability, knowledge and a hard core attitude. I've only been a member about 38 days now but I've made huge strides to get back into shape and I've met some great people. Give it a shot. You get 5 days in a row free. Like me, go all 5 and you will definitely be there on day 6 signing a contract.

The amazing environment here is addicting and has been life changing! I couldn't have asked for a better gym community where everyone is so supportive and pushes you to work hard and achieve results!

I recently joined this week and am in week 1 of the challenge. I really like the education of nutrition that goes along with the workouts. The staff is welcoming, the trainers are professional, knowledgeable, and some are competitors. I like the availability of class times which for a working mom helps to get it in when I need to. My ass is getting served here (in a good way) 😂😉 I came from a different gym and it was hard to leave but this place fits my schedule more and I appreciate the accomodation. I would drop a star for parking because it is a tough lot to find a space at times, but that really isn't the gym's fault. This is a great fitness community. Members and staff provide accountability and encouragement.

Anyone can open a gym, buy the latest equipment, and hire buff trainers to hell at you. But what Hardcore Fitness has is much more than that. They've created a community and that's just really positive where everyone from the trainer to the owner knows you and wants to see you be successful. Also, the parties are 🔥🔥🔥 Also wanted to mention the 60 day fitness challenges and being a friend free on Fridays.

Been to the Hardcore Fitness San Diego (Morena Location) a few times and every time the experience I have had has been life changing. Always left there feeling better after a good workout and a better mindset. The owners and trainers are amazing. Truly love what they do and it shows by the way they help everyone out. This gym has and continues to help many people out with living a healthier lifestyle.

The trainers are great- They are knowledgeable, respectful, know how to challenge you, and are professional with just the right amount of fun. The equipment available is great and things are well- organized and clean! The members and gym staff have all been great as well! I always feel welcome and there’s such an encouraging and positive vibe from everyone!

I like that the exercises aren't repetitive every week so it allows us to learn new exercises. There's a good mix of time we get to do exercises as well as workout splits so we get to rest our muscles. I also like that there is a demo before we start so it makes it easier to know what we need to do in each station specially if you are a beginner. During the workouts we also have the trainers making corrections so we don't hurt ourselves or motivating us so that's a plus

Whether you are experienced at weight training or not, hardcore fitness provides such a great and welcoming environment. They have amazing trainers/staff and never fail to provide a fun and challenging workout! If you’re needing modifications for whatever reason, they are also helpful at adjusting as necessary so that you don’t miss out on a good pump. My home gym was the convoy location and I 10/10 recommend popping in and checking them out :)

I like the friendliness of the staff and the thoroughness of the trainers as they emphasize proper form, challenge you to go beyond what you think your limits are, the intentional focus of each workout, and of course the results! There are people of all levels in their fitness journey, so this is not a place that will make you feel intimidated if you are new to working out and it is still a very good workout for those who have been doing it for years.
