Fantastic experience: TNT Strength has been a great find. I have worked with other personal trainers/gyms in the past and TNT has by far been the best. There method is straight forward and efficient. Ryan has been fantastic to work with. He pushes me to do my best and can already see results. I would highly recommend TNT Strength to anyone looking to get into strength training.

Fantastic experience: I’ve wanted to get into strength training for a while now but it’s always felt very intimidating. With no idea where to start or if what I’m doing is the “proper” way. Coming to TNT Strength has been the BEST decision I could have made for myself. Eric has been an amazing trainer! He listens to my concerns and works with me to create a plan that works for my lifestyle. So supportive in helping me reach + exceed the goals I’ve set for myself. I’m stronger than I’ve ever been and the progress makes me feel so good physically and mentally!

Fantastic experience: Love TNT. I feel stronger and healthier ever since I joined. The trainers are all smart regarding body science and their approach emphasizes this knowledge. I feel welcomed every time I walk in the gym. They have been able to make the workout accommodate an injury I have without missing a beat. They push me to my limit and it feels great. Anyone looking for a place to workout that’s encouraging, smart, fun, and based in science, TNT is the place to be.

Katherine Monahan 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Running, boot camp, and yoga kept me feeling healthy and fit through my thirties. Then came my forties when my metabolism and energy changed, and I started suffering multiple injuries. After it was suggested I look at Dr. Stacey Sims' approach to fitness for women 40+, I realized I needed support to learn to weight train the way she was suggesting. I googled "max strength gyms" to see what the options were close by with this approach. TNT popped up and that's how we met! As others have noted, the space is bright and clean, and the vibe is upbeat, kind of a Cheers of gyms. My trainer Ryan is friendly, knowledgeable, and encouraging as I work to find my groove in this new style of strength training. After 6 weeks, I already feel stronger and more like myself, and the InBody machine available at the gym validates that muscle and fat are trending in the desired directions. I'm thrilled to have found TNT in my neighborhood for my own health. As a naturopathic doctor, it's also invaluable to have a trusted gym and great trainers to share with patients where I am confident they will learn to lift safely with long-term wellness in mind. Thank you guys!

Fantastic experience: I feel great in my body and about myself! 30-minutes, twice a week and you're done! Highly recommend TNT Strength for results with efficiency! My trainer is Ryan and I adore him! What I like most about him that's different than other trainers I've worked with in other gyms before, is that he is paying attention to every rep! He is locked in to knowing how much weight should be loaded, pushing me to the limit, and I get the benefit of getting stronger in 1 hour a week. The whole team is top-notch: Liam, Jesse, Eric, and Ryan! I leave the gym saying, BOOM BABY!

Fantastic experience: I’ve been training with Eric for the past few months, and the progress I've made has been incredible! When I first started, I had specific goals in mind—building strength, improving my overall fitness, and enhancing my energy levels. Eric listened carefully to what I wanted to achieve and developed a personalized plan that kept me both motivated and challenged. Eric's approach goes beyond just physical training. He truly understands the importance of mindset and nutrition in reaching fitness goals, which has been a game-changer for me. His knowledge, patience, and ability to adapt the program to my needs kept me focused, and he always found ways to push me further than I thought possible. I’m now lifting heavier, feeling stronger, and more confident than ever.

Fantastic experience: I’ve had such a positive experience training with TNT strength over the past few months. The team of trainers at TNT are so friendly and personable. They really help keep me motivated to reach my fitness goals. The workouts we do are fun as well as challenging. What’s more is they are always switching things up to keep things fresh and never stale. Plus, they do a great job tracking your progress, so you can focus on pushing your body to the limit. Their pricing scale is very reasonable and they don’t lock you into long term contracts, which can’t be said for a lot of other fitness programs. I highly recommend checking them out!

Fantastic experience: Over the past several months, I had worked mostly with Eric and Ryan, who are both dedicated, excellent and encouraging trainers. They’ve pushed me to way beyond what I could possibly do on my own, and I feel that I have the muscle tone and increased strength to show for it. The 30-minute workouts, although increasingly tough, are well designed and are all over just when I think I’m about to call it quits (in actuality, that’s exactly how workouts should end up)! I can see the dedication, long hours, and hard work that all the trainers (Liam, Jesse, Eric, and Ryan) put in, and I appreciate the light, cheerful energy (and great music) that they pump into the gym.

Suzanna Chan 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: At the beginning of 2024, I received a shocking diagnosis of severe osteoporosis at age 58. I then learned that in order to strengthen my bones I must build more muscles. I had many criteria when I was searching for a trainer: the workouts must be effective (I was looking for progressive HIRT - High Intensity Resistance Training), must be located near home and in a safe neighborhood with easy parking, 1:1 training so I can strengthen my fragile bones safely without fracturing them, have a way to track progress, is not prohibitively expensive and possibly have some fun while doing it. 4 months into training twice a week, I will say TNT has met all my criteria, except maybe the “having fun” part. I have never trained with a trainer before and getting pushed repeatedly to fatigue physically is really far from my idea of fun but Liam sure tries to make the sessions interesting by switching up the training routines from day to day and I really appreciate his effort. The best part is the way the sessions are limited to 30 minutes – it’s over as you truly begin to feel the pain and burn. All the trainers at TNT are very easy going and nice yet professional and they cultivate a very positive environment. They chart your progress diligently on their ipads throughout your workouts and they have an InBody scanner to track your body composition changes. I feel empowered by the soreness after each session and encouraged by the InBody scanner showing I’m gaining muscles and losing fat. I’m determined to keep going and believe that the trainers at TNT can help me progress.

Fantastic experience: I highly recommend TNT Strength for their outstanding service! The 30-minute sessions are perfect for my busy schedule, providing a comprehensive workout that leaves me feeling energized. Eric and the trainers are incredibly knowledgeable and create effective workouts. One time, after a tough session, Eric noticed I was feeling down and took the time to talk with me about my goals and progress, giving me the motivation I needed to keep pushing forward. The atmosphere is supportive and motivating, ensuring proper form and technique. Since training at TNT Strength, I've seen incredible progress and couldn't be happier. If you want real results in less time, look no further than TNT Strength. Trust me, you won't be disappointed!

Fantastic experience: If you’re looking for a transformative and effective personal training experience in Oakland, look no further than TNT Strength! As someone who has always been hesitant about joining a gym due to the typical negative aspects (think dark, sweaty, dirty, and smelly environments), TNT was a breath of fresh air—literally! The space is bright, airy, and impeccably clean, making every visit a pleasant experience. One of the standout features of TNT is the efficiency and effectiveness of their 30-minute sessions. Unlike traditional gyms where you might spend hours wandering around without direction, here, every minute counts. The trainers and coaches are phenomenal. They understand fitness goals and tailor each session to ensure progress. In just a month, I’ve noticed significant improvements in my core, back, and neck strength—crucial areas as I get older. What truly sets TNT apart is the personalized attention and the welcoming atmosphere created by the staff. They are knowledgeable, supportive, and genuinely invested in your success. Plus, there’s ample street parking nearby, which is a huge bonus in the Bay Area. If you’ve been on the fence about starting your fitness journey, I highly recommend giving TNT Strength a try. You’ll be amazed at the results and the supportive community you’ll find here.

Fa Pa 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Before joining TnT, I believed that running more and adding sprints to my routine would make me a better runner. However, after joining TnT, I realized that weightlifting was also a crucial missing ingredient for my running and overall performance. I have seen a significant improvement in my runs, especially when tackling hills. I appreciate TnT's "Truth not Trends" approach to training, and I love that I can complete my twice-a-week workouts in just 30 minutes. Thank you, TnT, for helping me improve my training and performance! F.P.

Fantastic experience: I am sore! But in a great way! I have done various workouts in the last 20 years - and never really thought about strength training and how critical it is for overall health. The more I read about it benefits, the more I see this as THE most valuable tool for well being. The coaches are amazing and top notch! My coach Eric refuses to hear my grumbles (that weight is too heavy! i can't give you one more rep! but then he somehow gets it out of me!) He pushes me, harnesses my potential, and moves me beyond my limitations. He is encouraging, non-judgmental and sincere in wanting to get you to be your best and be strong. The rest of the coaches are great, funny, encouraging, and supportive. The workouts are never the same, never stays in your comfort zone, and truly results oriented. I like the small studio, has an intimate, personalized experience, great choices of music, and the equipment is clean and not outdated. I wish I started strength training years ago, never too late and really happy I found this place!

Fantastic experience: I’ve been going to TNT for more than two years, and it has been sooo worthwhile. I cannot say the workouts are fun, because they are hard. But what worthwhile in life isn’t? I’m almost 70, and, frankly, my muscles were getting soft. No longer. Without these guys - Brian and Jesse and Liam and Taylor - I wouldn’t feel as good as I do in everyday life and at pickleball. I enjoy going in and joking with them and working out every week, and I recommend them to everyone.

Fantastic experience: I have nothing but great things to say about TNT. Staff is super knowledgeable and friendly. You can tell that they take care of their studio- it is super clean and they have top notch equipment. They also have an InBody Scan which does a full body assessment (body fat %, skeletal muscle mass, water weight, etc). Jesse helps me understand what the numbers on my scan mean, and offers personalized suggestions on how I can improve. You can tell they truly care about you at TNT.

Fantastic experience: I started with TNT for bone health and tests has shown that my bone density has increased. Strength training does really work but it needs to be done consistently and that's why I go to TNT. Liam and Jesse are great in keeping me on track and of what's needed to be done. They also make it fun. The result is undeniable as friends and family can see I'm stronger and fitter than ever. I also gained stability and with that, confidence to do more vigorous activities without risk getting hurt.

Fantastic experience: I’ve been coming to TNT since November and have felt so much stronger , I continue to build strength and get challenged in each workout. I highly recommend TNT strength if you’re looking to get a workout that will challenge you each time.

Fantastic experience: I am an inconsistent person when it comes to practicing sports; I find gyms boring and usually don't last more than a month in any yoga or pilates class. But everything changed when I signed up for TNT! Liam and Jesse are experts in the field and listen to their clients. I feel super motivated to get to my session with Liam, and I am fitter than ever. I never imagined I would like weightlifting! It is also an excellent physical activity for women who want to gain muscle mass and protect their bones. I recommend it 100%! Boom baby!

Fantastic experience: My wife and I have been members of TNT for about 6 months and are completely thrilled with the experience. Liam and Jessie have a supportive, safe, challenging and fun approach. It's not all hardbodies -- people of all ages and shapes come in for help and the community is wonderful. This is like no other gym experience I've had before -- highly recommended.

Fantastic experience: I did 2 months here with Liam prior to moving away from Oakland, and it’s one of the places I miss the most. Workouts were quick but impactful, and Liam knew how to push me to always try harder. It felt extremely personalized and the small nature of the gym was my favorite aspect.

Fantastic experience: TNT is the best! Training with Liam has significantly improved my strength, mood, and look in a relatively short time. The model of 30-minute sessions two times per week is ideal for my schedule and Liam is always on time, prepared, and inspiring. I highly recommend TNT. It’s the kind of place you feel lucky you found!

Fantastic experience: Today was my first session with Jesse at TNT Strength and I cannot believe how much I learned about body and how build and maintain strength! The workout was really fast and way easier than I expected- even though he pushed me to my limits on every activity. It turns out I've been going about it wrong for decades, now I'm happy to be resting for at least two days! : ) I feel so excited and empowered with all this new information and support- I cannot recommend Jesse or TNT Strength any more.

Fantastic experience: TNT stands true to its name. If you are looking for results, look no further! The programs are personally structured, tailored, diverese, efficient and effective. They are also very data driven, which helps you visualize your progress and achieve your goals in an accelerated rate. On top of that, the trainers are all very knowledagble, passionate and supportive of your strenght development. Training at TNT is not easy, you're going to be pushed hard every second and minute of it, but at the end you will get addicted to it, and will want to come back for more results. My trainer Jesse is definitely making sure of this for me! Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: I have been training with Taylor at TNT for about 8 months and it has been transformative - not only physically but mentally too! Taylor is personable, knowledgeable and makes each training session fun and challenging. I was hesitant to begin working with a trainer one on one, but it only took a few sessions with Taylor to change my mind. TNT is lucky to have him as part of their team and I would recommend him to anyone looking to begin their journey in the private training to improve strength, fitness & health. Thank you Taylor!

Highly recommend them for anyone who is curious about cultivating a new kind of strength practice - the trainers are awesome guides rooting for you to keep achieving what was previously impossible and unimaginable.

Mel Hilario 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Exercise can be difficult partly because figuring out what works for you takes effort that most people understandably don't have the bandwidth or time for. At TNT, that problem is solved. You'll get an efficient workout where a trainer gives you *their* full attention and motivation for 30 minutes (don't worry--that will feel longer that it sounds, lol). The TNT crew tracks your stats to see how and when to progress you, all while cheering you on. Their system is clear--and honestly, comforting; I appreciated being able to just focus on the movements while Jesse coached me and threw in a joke when I wasn't sure I could do that last rep. :) If you find strength training mysterious, or you feel fit but want additional gains that you can work into your already packed schedule, try a workout at TNT!

Danielle Milburn 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Over the last 4 years ago, I gained approximately 35 pounds and have struggled to get back in shape. I’ve tried working out on my own, but could not keep up with a consistent routine. I finally decided to join TNT Strength about 3 months ago, and it was one of the best decisions I’ve made this year. I don’t have a lot of extra time in my schedule with work in mental, sports officiating (referee for basketball and lacrosse), keeping up with home duties, and trying to have a little fun. Taylor has been flexible with my schedule and training at my pace, is supportive, encouraging, pushes me to my limits, and provides valuable information to assist me with reaching my goals. There is never too many people in the gym at the same time, which allows more personal one-on-one focus and we are able to choose our own music while working out. The other trainers, Liam and Jesse are also super welcoming, friendly and supportive. Affordable training sessions in a clean and safe environment with good people, who want to help you reach your full potential and my husband and I are in and out in less than an hour each session. What more could a girl who doesn’t even like to workout ask for?

Fantastic experience: I wanted a strength work out that would be complementary to my running and they designed it for me. I really like being coached at TNT. A 30’ 1:1 work out at TNT is very effective. It is also a friendly and inclusive environment. The trainers are very experienced and supportive. I like that’s it’s super clean, not packed and can pick your music. I will keep going!

Heather Field 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Only great things to say about TNT. I’ve been working with Jesse for about two months and I’ve definitely gotten stronger. I’m just getting back into exercising after a long time so it’s been important to me that Jesse always takes me where I am with no judgment—only encouragement and support. He pushes me but he knows just how hard to push (and it turns out that I can do a lot more than I ever thought I could!). And throughout, he’s super careful about making sure that I do everything safely. He’s also very knowledgeable so I’ve learned a lot too. When I first reached out to TNT, I wasn’t sure if I really wanted to work with a trainer, but I’m so glad that I went for it. I work primarily with Jesse who is awesome, but Liam and Taylor are great too. Definitely recommend.

Fantastic experience: I've been going to TNT for a few months now. This is my first experience with a personal trainer and it's been overwhelmingly positive. All the trainers are lovely to work with and extremely personable. They are all fonts of information on fitness and nutrition and will gladly answer questions and share thoughts on best practices and how to approach your personal fitness plan. The gym is always clean and there's never been more than one other client there at any given time, so it always feels very comfortable. Highly recommend!!!

Fantastic experience: Never much into going to the gym, I look forward to it now that it only takes a half hour! Liam has tailored my workouts to meet my specific goals and needs. Gaining muscle feels good and adds another dimension to a runner’s regimen of regular running. I’m even injured now having rolled my foot and breaking a bone, yet Liam has found ways to still work both legs. I can’t thank Liam, Jesse and Taylor enough for their support, care, and shared knowledge. I highly recommend anyone of any physical ability to give them a try!
