EverStrongSF

Personal trainer

👍👍 I’ve done a lot of strength training programs over my years of playing high school football and college rugby, and I’ve never experienced a program like Abe’s Everstrong. Just a few minutes on his machines has an unreal affect. I left our 20 minute workout feeling good but not exhausted, however t...

Walk In Balance - Alexander Technique Center

Personal trainer

👍👍 I was suffering from headaches that acupuncture and body work didn't help and I had lower back issues. I'm young and exercise regularly so the problems that showed up in my MRI were pretty shocking! I have to look at this as a "wake up call" because I don't want surgery nor do I want to live on pain...

DIAKADI Fitness Performance Life

👍👍 This is by far my favorite fitness experience in SF. I work with Jesse, and over the last year he's helped me be pain-free, build strength, and drop 25 pounds.

👍👍 This gym offers a luxury experience and highly skilled trainers -- chief among them is Lu Green.

Rise Combat Sports - San Francisco

Physical fitness program

😠 I paid for one month in cash up front. A few days later I bought boxing gloves with a credit card. Without my knowledge, they retained my credit card information and then charged that card $200 a few weeks later for another month of membership. When I called to request a refund they refused. Take yo...

Live Fit Gym • Nob Hill

Gym

👍👍 Great location, compact with almost everything you'd need. Crowded during peak times, but so is every gym in SF; if you go just an hour later or earlier you'll be fine. Lots of treadmills and machines, one squat rack, one dual-axis Smith machine, and two barbells. Andrew is great and makes the gym a...

Live Fit Gym • Polk Street

Gym

👍👍 One of the best gyms I've been a part of! It feels very boutique as there aren't a ton of members. You can always get the machine you want. The hours 6 - 11pm are also great! Very convenient location on Polk in Nob Hill. I also have to give a shoutout to the manager, Daniel Liu, who created a welco...
