WESTCA

Fantastic experience: Westca is amazing! The encouraging and welcoming environment has helped me achieve my weight loss and muscle building goals. Through my amazing trainer Adam's nutrition advice and workout plans I am motivated to keep my body moving and and getting better. This beautiful place with clean equipment is what I look forward to after a stressful day at work. I completely escape and can focus on myself so that I can continue to be there for my own clients, family, friends, and most importantly myself. Thank you Westca for creating a loving, encouraging, and welcoming environment. I highly recommend this gym for those who want to be surrounded by friendly people who are encouraging and will help you set up doable steps to achieving healthy fitness goals.

Fantastic experience: I’ve been training at WESTCA Gym with Ivan since November 2023 and have split sessions with Adam since September 2024, and I can confidently say it’s been a game-changer for my fitness journey. Ivan is an incredible trainer who not only focuses on form and technique but also helps me develop a strong mind-muscle connection, making each workout more impactful. Adam is equally amazing and has built on this new foundation of proper form with challenging (yet effective) workouts. Since starting, I’ve seen tremendous progress—both in my physique and in my confidence when it comes to training with free weights and dumbbells. Before joining WESTCA, I had memberships at big-chain gyms but never knew what to do, so I’d waste time, stick to cardio machines, and eventually stop going. That’s completely changed here. I have lost over 6% body fat and 53lbs since joining WESTCA! As a female and solo mom, I truly appreciate how welcoming and encouraging the atmosphere is— which is why I 1000% recommend training here! I was able to bring my son in with me when I didn’t have the flexibility with my schedule for training session and the team was super understanding and sweet! You get results because the trainers genuinely care about your progress, nutrition, and overall well-being. The semi-private training sessions create an amazing supportive and motivating environment. The other gym members I have met in session and around the gym are so welcoming and supportive. The front desk staff are friendly and fun - with music playlists that keep me going! Ivan’s workouts are always creative, effective, and adaptable—if a machine is taken, he quickly adjusts without missing a beat. My trainers both know exactly when to push me to lift more, when to adjust if I’m having an off day, and when to match my sassy sarcasm about the torture from exercise. But truly - every session leaves me feeling accomplished, stronger, and more confident. And last, the owners - Meaghan and Tory are kind and thoughtful individuals. I’m proud to support this local, family owned team! If you’re looking for a gym where the trainers care, the workouts are fun, and you actually see results, WESTCA is the place to be! Thank you team

Fantastic experience: I have been working out with Ivan for about four months at WestCA. I recently moved to San Jose and wanted to get back into my workout routine. I was stressed with a new job and the move, which made it challenging to establish a consistent routine. Ivan made the transition back to the gym easy; he understood my busy schedule and never gave me a hard time if I was late. It's also great that they offer affordable group sessions that are manageable. Initially, I thought I could only work out if I was eating healthy or dieting, but Ivan helped me realize that exercise is essential, regardless of our diet. He is very passionate and patient. I would highly recommend giving Ivan and WestCA a try—you won't be disappointed!

Fantastic experience: I’ve had an incredible experience training with Sydney! She designs workouts tailored to my fitness level and ensures my form is always perfect, preventing injuries while maximizing results. In just a few months, I’ve noticed improvements in strength, endurance, and confidence. Beyond being knowledgeable, she is friendly, professional, and genuinely invested in my progress. Highly recommended!

Fantastic experience: My trainer Charlie is smart, creative, a good motivator, and has helped me consistently improve. The gym itself is welcoming and well equipped. I appreciate Charlie's and WESTCA's flexibility with rescheduling.

Fantastic experience: I really enjoy this gym especially when compared to the cheaper options near me. The space is clean and equipment is where it is supposed to be. It's usually not packed in the mornings so you move through a workout pretty efficiently. I have been going consistently for a year now with Charlie in semi-private training and have really enjoyed the structured workouts and tips to help improve my fitness. I also just appreciate that everyone is genuinely nice and helpful. The culture is really positive and motivating to be around.

Positive experience: I hit up WESTCA gym for a late-night workout and just needed a day pass. Punam at the front desk was super nice, and within 10 minutes, I was all set. She gave me a quick tour, and I was ready to go. The gym may be small, but it’s got everything you need to hit every muscle—clean, organized, and well-stocked with cable equipment that’s easy to find. Plus, the music playlist is , perfect for staying pumped through your session. For just $25 for a day pass, it was a solid experience, especially for a quick, effective workout!

Fantastic experience: I’ve always had a great experience at Westca gym. Also shout out to my trainer Charlie who’s really knowledgeable, experienced, and always helpful. I do also hope he reunites with his lost water bottle soon.

Fantastic experience: Hello, I have joined WestCA 2 months ago and I am already seeing the results. My trainers Charlie and Genti are knowledgeable and help me understand each form and the associated pressure on the muscle. Thank you both of you and WestCA.

Fantastic experience: I've been taking semi-private training with Charlie for almost a year now and the experience at Westca has been great! Prior to coming here, I've never weightlifted before because I was always too intimidated, but Tory and everyone else has been very kind and welcoming. Charlie is patient and great at explaining how to do all the exercises. There's a strong sense of community here that I think can be hard to find these days.

Fantastic experience: WESTCA has basically been my home away from home since 2019. The equipment is top-notch of course, but the COMMUNITY is what keeps you coming back ! My trainer, Charlie’s workouts are killer and his emphasis on slow, controlled movements over weights have been game changing for me. Adam’s meal plans are AMAZING, you don’t feel like you’re on a diet! Tory, Meaghan and the entire team at WESTCA ensure that you make sustainable lifestyle changes and not quick fixes! Can’t say enough good things about WESTCA

Fantastic experience: Charlie is a great trainer. I have been able to achieve both my strength and aesthetic goals working with him. He is super knowledgeable, very flexible, and does not get mad at my swearing during session when he makes me do too many reps. Highly recommend this gym and this trainer!

Fantastic experience: Awesome atmosphere, great people. Honestly the best gym I've ever been to, since I began lifting 5 years ago. There's a lot of positive energy and good people there and everyone feels welcome, from casual lifters to competitive bodybuilders and powerlifters. No matter who you are, you will not feel out of place here.

Fantastic experience: WESTCA is a great gym! The staff and trainers are nice and so helpful. WESTCA cultivates a friendly atmosphere and community for every level of people on their fitness journey.

Fantastic experience: A great gym with good equipment, nice staff, great value of the 1-week pass. Suggest to have a few heavier kettlebells :)

Fantastic experience: WESTCA is hands down the best gym in the San Jose area. All the equipment you need. Competent, knowledgable trainers. Friendly, approachable, and kind people who work out there. If you're looking to get started working out but don't know where to begin, WESTCA is your new home.

Fantastic experience: Clean gym and super friendly people

Fantastic experience: Been a member since it opened. Best gym in San Jose “bar” none. Family feel with people serious about getting in shape. Give it a try!

Fantastic experience: I've been a member of Westca for about 4 years now and I've enjoyed every step of the way! All of the employees are extremely kind and ensure everyone has a safe, clean and comfortable workout. I never feel out of place when I come here and would absolutely recommend this gym to others!

Fantastic experience: Today is my first day at this gym and I have a really great first impression! I used to go 24hr, Crunch for the low rate, but the vibe is just different. At WESTCA, it is super chill and everyone is friendly and respectful. Although it’s a small studio but they have pretty completed set of equipment.

Fantastic experience: Hands down the best gym I’ve ever been to. A few things I loved were it’s size (not too big but not too small), crowd (never felt over crowded), cleanliness (EVERYONE cleaned up after themselves) and #1 community/culture (the staff as well as the owners Tori and Meaghan take their time to get to know you and make you feel welcome). Only got to be there for a year but WESTCA truly shifted my expectations of what a gym should be. One of the saddest parts about leaving the bay was having to find a new gym open a SoCal Location please Wish you guys the best and keep prospering!

Fantastic experience: This is one of a few gyms of which I am a member. The equipment is well cared-for, the staff and vibe are extremely friendly. They have everything I need to do the work I need to get done, and plenty of cleaning supplies to ensure that I am able to leave clean equipment for the next user. Love this place!

Fantastic experience: WESTCA has been my “Stomping Ground” Gym since 2017. There has been a time I took a LOA for Personal & Private Reasons, but it is a gym that I let loose my charisma while I am doing cardio, let alone that I just would like to be noticed. I have a close connection w/ Tory & some of the Front Desk staff. My MOST FAVORITE MOMENTS are the pictures I get w/ Tory & some of the “‘Bodybuilder’/‘Physique’ Bros in Christ” for Fitness Inspiration & Motivation. Especially when get my pictures w/ them, i have the resources to stay motivated & determined, though I ALWAYS continue to add more. My ONLY issues are the parking (especially that since I can NO LONGER put any trust into the Parking Garage: 1 of them, Car Theft). Additionally, like Tory, I would like to be able to train/workout w/ someone w/ a STRONG & BUFF Physique such that I can stay focused in my workouts since I sometimes find myself distracted while I workout. Most especially that since I work late during the weekdays, I am not able to get a lot done & usually do the same workout every time. Overall, based on everything I said, I am Autistic & just trying to be myself. At the same time, I just need that EXTRA Motivation to help me stay focused in my workouts. As I love Pokémon & Acting (just to name a few of my MOST FAVORITE Hobbies), I would like to be understood in my workouts.

Fantastic experience: My favorite place to train when Im in San Jose! The vibe is great, people are friendly, and there's a ton of free weights and equipment.

Fantastic experience: Working out at WestCA is fantastic. Although it’s a small gym there’s always machines available. I have workout sessions with Genti and he’s great to work with. He creates workout plans for the days that I’m not with him which helps me to continue to work on my fitness goals. Strongly recommend this gym! 6-month update: I joined a 6-month program and was blown away by the experience. Genti, my trainer, was a great guide in my fitness journey. He made sure that I understood the workouts and what I should be doing outside of the gym in terms of eating. I started at WestCA not being able to do one single push and was using 10lb dumbbells. After 6 months, now I'm able to do up to 20 push ups and have even done reps of dumbbells at 35 pounds. I am forever greatful to WestCA and to Genti for taking me in and for showing me that I can build up my strength.

Fantastic experience: I’ve had an exceptional experience at WESTCA. First, the condition of the equipment is commendable; everything is well-maintained and operates smoothly. During most occasions, I did not have to wait in line for machines, which is a huge plus for anyone with a tight schedule looking to maximize their workout time. What truly sets this gym apart for me is the semi-private training sessions. Based on my observations, my and other trainers are incredibly patient and attentive, tailoring their coaching to meet individual needs and abilities. This personalized approach has not only helped me improve my fitness but has also significantly boosted my confidence in the gym. Specifically, my trainer, Ivan, goes above and beyond the one-hour training sessions. He keeps in constant contact through text messages and the fitness app, monitoring my cardio activities and diet. His ongoing advice and encouragement have been pivotal in my fitness journey, offering support that extends far beyond the gym walls. Beyond the physical benefits, the sense of community here is great. The friendly and welcoming atmosphere makes every visit enjoyable, encouraging a consistent workout routine. This gym has fostered an environment where everyone can feel at home, regardless of their fitness level.

Fantastic experience: I've been training at WESTCA with Genti for about 3 months now, and I’m so happy and thankful for the experience so far! The sessions are challenging and Genti is always mindful and quick to check in with me to make sure that I'm feeling good and comfortable with the exercises. Definitely a solid balance between pushing me respecting my pace. It's been empowering to feel challenged & supported throughout the process. Our sessions are thoughtfully structured to target my goals while keeping things engaging and varied. In the time spent working with Genti, I’ve had physical improvements and gained confidence + knowledge about my own capabilities in the gym - that’s been so cool! I highly recommend Genti and WESTCA ! :)

Fantastic experience: Discovering WESTCA, a locally owned gym, and training with Ivan has been the highlight of my fitness journey. Ivan’s expertise and personalized training have been transformative, pushing my limits and exceeding my expectations. His dedication to my progress reflects the overall ethos of WESTCA – a place where community and individual growth thrive together. WESTCA isn’t just a gym; it’s a community hub run by passionate local owners who create a welcoming and supportive environment. Joining this awesome community and working with Ivan has not only helped me achieve my fitness goals but also connected me with like-minded individuals. WESTCA and Ivan offer a truly five-star experience, combining professional training with a heartwarming community spirit. Highly recommend to anyone looking to transform their life with the support of a great local gym and incredible trainers.

Fantastic experience: I thought it important to me to drop this note about a very special place in my daily life. I have been going to WESTCA Gym for almost two years know and could not recommend a better place. I am not a diehard weight lifter but do it for my health as I am now considered a senior. Meaghan and Tory, as well as all the staff, have been very supportive in helping me in anyway they can. I am definitely not the hulk, nor do I want to be, but want to keep my muscles strong and motion skills sharp as I know move into my golden years. This facility has something for everyone regardless of their age or goals. I have met some great people, both working there, and working out there, that will always help you to accomplish whatever your goals are. Check it out as I highly recommend it. Cheers

Fantastic experience: I have been training with Charlie for nearly 6 months now and have been really enjoying the experience. I love the programming and the gym has such good vibes. I appreciate the owners attention to their clients and for being so inclusive and welcoming. Really appreciative of the space, equipment and proximity in the downtown location.

Fantastic experience: Charlie from WESTCA will make a difference in your life. It’s not just how much knowledge he has about customizing each of your training cessions to maximize the results, it’s also how disciplined he is to himself as an inspection for all to follow a healthy and responsible lifestyle as a human. He’s amazing. The gym is great too.

Fantastic experience: WESTCA, or Focused Integrated Training, is a fitness studio in San Jose, California. It offers workouts, training, nutrition, and accountability programs. WESTCA is located at 30 N 3rd Street, near St. James Park. WESTCA is open Monday–Thursday from 5 AM–10 PM, Friday from 5 AM–8 PM, and Saturday–Sunday from 7 AM–5 PM. WESTCA offers group workouts with one trainer per 3–5 people. Each client receives a program based on their goals, fitness level, and workout schedule. Some say the staff is friendly and the equipment and facilities are clean. WESTCA features wheelchair accessible seating, parking lot, entrance, and restroom. It also has a transgender safe space.

Fantastic experience: have been coming to this gym for about a year (6 months as guest due to work travel, 6 months of being a member). I can say the things that I'm impressed is compare to other gyms is that WESTCA is very community oriented and they do multiple events for members to network with each other and have the opportunity to get to know their staffs and the owners! Also, I really how the gym is very clean and the members are willing re rack the weights and sanitize the equipments! If you're looking to be a part of the community and ready to level up your fitness and nutrition knowledge, I can say WESTCA is the gym for you!

Fantastic experience: A terrific gym! Friendly staff and lots of equipment. Highly recommend!!!

Fantastic experience: I've been training with a personal trainer at WESTCA gym for six months and the experience has been outstanding. The trainer's expertise helped me become significantly stronger and their tailored approach to fitness made every session effective and enjoyable. Highly recommend WESTCA for anyone looking to improve their strength and fitness!

Fantastic experience: The atmosphere at Westca is great, and encouraging! Big shoutout to my trainer, Ivan, for his well-planned workout routines and for making 6 AM training sessions really fun and energizing. Definitely recommend this gym for people in and around San Jose!

Fantastic experience: Nice gym, that is not too crowded. Always greeted with a smile.

Positive experience: I really enjoyed my time here. It has a great flow, and a variety of people at various stages in their fitness journey; which I greatly appreciate seeing. My only critique is their floor space to do calisthenics is pretty small, as in only 5-7 people can fit. Also, if there’s a trainer with a group they can sometimes have little regard for other people who want to use the machine they and their group is on. This is only an issue because there’s really only one of each machine. On the whole though, it’s a great gym and good location, a little off the beaten path, but still close to most things. It’s always clean and there’s a good sense of pride in their front desk and training staff.

Fantastic experience: Megan and Dorothy were very helpful. I highly recommend this gym to local San Jose residents. It helps with time managements and is very affordable with good vibes. My coworker and I come during lunch and get our workout in

Fantastic experience: I think the most important qualities of a gym is being in a community that is inclusive, supportive, and treat you like a human being. And Westca is just that. The community here not only cares about your health, but also you as a person. As someone who identifies as trans and queer this was the only gym that ever made feel safe about who I am. The staff have been super awesome (big shoutout out to the amazing human Maegs!) and make the genuine effort to honor my respective pronouns. I’ve been working with Ivan who is helping me reach my goals of living my true authentic self by preparing for my top surgery. Working Ivan has been a blast, as I can already feel much more confident in myself and working out than I did starting 4 weeks ago. As someone with severe depression and anxiety it has been absolutely healing to be here because of how extremely kind everyone is. I honestly brag a lot about being here. You wont make a mistake if you are thinking of working out here.

Fantastic experience: Great Gym ,Great Enviroment ,Good Machines. All together a good gym.

Fantastic experience: Fantastic gym. Everyone there is super friendly and you get a strong sense of community every time you walk in. The space is small but they make the most of it and I've never had any issues waiting too long for certain equipment. All the equipment is in good condition and anything that breaks usually gets fixed quickly. I moved out of San Jose and had to leave this gym but I'm really going to miss it.

Fantastic experience: This gym is a great place to work out both individually and with their training staff! I've been personal training with Faith during my pregnancy and she has been a great support in designing customized workouts that are both challenging and safe, helping me maintain muscle mass and strength during this pregnancy! Definitely recommend Faith if you appreciate learning more about exercise science too!

Fantastic experience: Working with Faith has been the best experience for my lifting journey and I'm so glad I joined the WETCA community! This is my first time working with a personal trainer and I'm so happy to have been paired up with Faith. In just a couple weeks of training together she has already adjusted my grip and squat form for higher weight. I love how big she is on empowering women to be strong and lift heavy :) Def recommend working with her if you want to get stronger and work your thighs and glutes!

Fantastic experience: I joined Westca 4 months ago. My fitness journey has progress greatly training with Maegs! She creates great plans and has motivated me to make progress every week! Everyone at gym makes you feel welcome.

Fantastic experience: WESTCA is both a gym and a community, one that I’m proud to be a part of. I've had the opportunity and privilege to work with both Tory and Adrian, who have shown me the ropes of training with free weights and machines. Both of them have been patient and professional during workouts with an attention to detail when it comes to correcting my form. Their constructive criticism has helped me lose nearly 10 pounds of fat and build up my strength. In the early days, I considered myself lucky if I could smoothly handle 45-lb dumbbells. Now, I’m on the verge of pushing myself with 100-lb dumbbells under the guidance of Tory and Adrian. Thank you to WESTCA and its team for providing an awesome lifting community in the Bay Area!

Fantastic experience: I hated working out until I found Westca, my girl Maegs pushes me every week to become a better version of myself. Truly such a light, bubbly, and fun person! Maegs has helped me feel more confident by teaching me proper form and giving me super helpful tips. She’s tiny but don’t underestimate her. Truly the best trainer!

Fantastic experience: I've been going to Westca for a little over a year now and couldn't imagine a better place. I've never been really comfortable in a gym setting, but everyone at Westca just wants the best for you and are so welcoming. I train with Adam, who is incredibly knowledgeable and committed to helping me (and all his clients) improve in all facets. I can't recommend him and Westca enough.

Fantastic experience: I have been coming to Westca for a little over a year now. I signed up since I started pulling muscles in my back from inactivity. The personal trainers are amazing! Maegan is my personal trainer and she is dedicated to helping me reach my fitness goals. She always greets me with a smile in the mornings and genuinely cares about my progress. The staff is so friendly and supportive. No matter what fitness level you are at, Westca can help you get to where you want to be. Now I can pick up my chunky 25lb dog and not pull my back out! I feel so much stronger and confident.

Fantastic experience: The gym is smaller than your big box gym with dated machines, but it makes up for it with its cleanliness, welcoming environment, and people, both staff and gym-goers! I’ve always felt welcomed and supported here, even when I was working out on my own. I can honestly say all staff will greet you with a smile, say hi when able, and are approachable if you have any questions. One day, I was invited to work out with one of the personal trainers, Maegs, and I was hooked! I signed up for sessions immediately and enjoyed every minute. The one-hour sessions go by fast and are so fun, filled with laughter and mini dances during rest periods. Maegs will brighten up anyone’s day with her positive attitude, even at 7am. She is knowledgeable, down to earth, and makes me feel comfortable in my own skin. This gym is amazing because she’s a huge part of it! She deserves a raise!

Fantastic experience: This was my first gym experience and I was lucky to have my first trainer Maegs! who taught me so much about strength training and how to use equipment in the gym that I used to be intimidated by. She is so sweet and truly cares about your fitness and health goals and ensures you reach them safely! I've been going to her for about 3-4 months now and I can't recommend her enough!! :))

Fantastic experience: I started training with Maegs in November 2022. I signed up because I wanted to learn proper form and had gym anxiety on my own. From the get go, she has been so comforting and positive. Not only have I gained a ton of knowledge on form and how to do exercises correctly, I have gained a new level of self love that I was struggling to find. I can say in confidence, this is because of Maegs. She is a true gem. I look forward to every single session with her, even if its early! WESTCA as a whole is a very clean and inviting facility and everyone there is so nice. Definitely the best place to be!

Fantastic experience: Maegs is a great trainer, happy to have her positivity while training. The gym as a whole is very supportive and welcoming.

Fantastic experience: I joined WESTCA in Oct 2022 and instantly felt the support from everyone, such a welcoming and fun community. I've been training with Maegs for 3 months and I've never felt better! She's very knowledgeable and motivating, always pushing me to achieve my goals. Even with my busy work life, Maegs has always found a way to fit training into my schedule going above and beyond to make sure I stay on track. It's been a dream to train with Maegs at WESTCA!

Fantastic experience: When it comes to my personal trainer, Adam, it's five stars all the way. He's kind, patient, has a really positive attitude and a great sense of humor. And yet he also keeps me accountable and on track with my fitness goals. The gym itself is clean and has a nice community atmosphere. The clients are friendly and I've never noticed anyone being creepy or weirdly macho. My fiancée and I did have one frustrating episode with Westca: We were significantly overcharged for several months. When we noticed the issue and asked for it to be fixed, it took a few months—and several reminders plus an in-person meeting—before they finally fixed things on their end. We'd hoped they might make some kind of gesture for their error, but when we asked if there was anything they could give us for our troubles we were effectively told: "Well, we gave you your money back." ‍♂️

Positive experience: First and foremost, my trainer Adam is AMAZING, he pushes me to up the ante in my workout but never in a way that makes me feel unsafe or pressured. Can’t recommend him enough. I also love what a diverse group of people workout there and people are super nice. Despite being busy at times, the wait to use a machine is never too bad. There’s a variety of workout equipment and the place is kept clean. That said, I have had persistent billing issues that totaled to ~$3000 of overages over the 9 months my fiancé and I have been members. I’d alert staff that I was being double charged, told it was fixed, only for it to happen again. Hopefully, it is fixed for good since having an in-person meeting with the manager this month. Though tbh it was disappointing that when I inquired whether a gesture could be made for the inconvenience the manager declined-citing that she had returned the money (which is not a gesture, that’s simply returning money I was rightfully owed) and that my enrollment fees had already been waived (which they were, but that was supposed to have been because of a promotion being offered at time of sign up). I totally understand mistakes happen but I just think that after being overcharged by thousands of dollars offering some sort of gesture (such as waiving the additional annual fee this January) would’ve been the least they could do considering the impact to my budget and the time it took me to make multiple inquiries requesting repayment.

Fantastic experience: I was fortunate enough to attend a few sessions during the two-week trial with Adam and he was communicative, well-equipped/trained, and motivated me during our workouts. I expressed my weaknesses and goals to him and he was considerate and tailored a workout plan to help strengthen my injured shoulder and leg pains. He places a strong emphasis on technique, which I appreciate. I was, unfortunately, unable to continue to workout with Adam because of financial obligations, but I would recommend him to people trying to gain muscle, overall body workouts, and rehabilitation.

Fantastic experience: I have been training with Adam at westca gym for past 4 months. Adam is a great trainer who motivates you to work on your goals everyday. I have seen results pretty fast. He has great knowledge about nutrition too which is a plus. He provides great tips on what to eat and how much you should eat. I recommend everyone to train with Adam and workout at westca, you will definitely have fun and will achieve your goals!

Fantastic experience: I have been training with Adam since last July. Adam is professional and knowledgeable, he crafted a training plan based on my needs and pushed me to succeed. He is also an nutritionist and gave me lots of good information that help me to achieve my fitness goal. Adam is above and beyond, I HIGHLY recommend!!!

Fantastic experience: WESTCA is the best gym downtown; there's a variety of equipment, parking nearby, and what sets them apart best is the personal trainers. I've been working with Adam for a few months now, and having someone to encourage you and guide you throughout your workouts is a game-changer. 11/10 recommend working with Adam

Fantastic experience: I have been been a WESTCA member for a little over 2 years now. And recently have worked with Adam as my nutritional trainer. I can't say enough how thorough Adam is when creating meals and macro target goals for daily meals. I am completely new to dieting and learning what my body should be eating to fuel me through out the day and what I should be avoiding. But Adams program has made it simple for me to understand where my food sources should come from. He also included different recipes for easier meal prepping for the busy weeks. The weekly phone calls have really helped me stay accountable as well and Adam is always supportive when it comes to my fitness and health goals. Adam is a great addition to the entire WESTCA community. The gym itself has hard working members/staff inside and outside the gym. On top of a community that really uplifts one another and is extremely supportive of each other. The gym itself is clean and stacked with different pieces of equipment to complete your workout, whether that's elastic bands, lifting belts, medicine balls, kettlebells, cable attachments, benches, etc. I would highly recommend WESTCA, Adam or any of their training staff for anyone looking to add to their fitness/health goals!

Fantastic experience: I've been training with Adam at WestCa for the past eleven months. He has great training skills, is very informed and experienced, and is able to adapt his training to the needs of the individual. He is genuinely invested in helping me achieve my fitness goals and provides me with a pragmatic plan to do so. When a particular exercise is beyond my current fitness level, he modifies the session accordingly. I think WestCa is the best personal training service in San Jose!

Fantastic experience: Adrian is an awesome trainer. He always has a positive attitude and a smile on his face. He does a good job if helping you reach your goals and is always very supportive while pushing to you to improve. He has been an important part of Westca since it opened. The gym itself has a wonderful atmosphere and sense of community. Great place, great people, great space to workout.

Fantastic experience: I ’ve been a member at WESTCA for 4.5 years and I have been training with Adrian for almost a year now. I only have good things to say about him; he’s one of the best! Very knowledgeable, attentive (he watches your form and will tell you to slow down) and has a genuine personality. Sessions with Adrian are always fun but he also pushes to work hard. As a former athlete I really appreciate the challenge and motivation to stay active. This gym has become my second home since I started working downtown. Westca is a sanctuary, a place I come to clear my mind and decompress. I have a pretty hectic work life so I look forward to walking through those doors. The gym is a vibe; from the people, music and overall positive environment. I love the community and the friendships I have built here overtime. It’s one of the main reasons why I have been loyal to this gym. Thank you Tory, Meaghan Paulina and team!

Fantastic experience: Follow up review from 6 months ago! During the past 6 months, I have been on a bulking cycle. My trainer, Adam, has helped me gain 10 pounds of overall weight with of which 5.8 pounds was an increase lean muscle mass! In addition, my body fat percentage has actually decreased 0.6% which is amazing. He has helped stay on my nutrition plan. I can't thank WestCA enough for helping me towards my fitness goal and I highly recommend WestCA if you want serious results! I highly recommend WestCa to anyone who’s serious about fitness and working out. Adam is my nutritionist and one of the physical trainers I work with at WestCa. He’s professional and understanding but also keeps my accountable to my goals! I highly recommend Adam and WestCa for all of your fitness goals.

Fantastic experience: I recently started working with Adam at WESTCA and I couldn't be happier with my decision. I was in need of a personal trainer and heard great things about the gym, and it definitely lives up to the hype. Adam has been an absolute pleasure to work with - he's easy to count on, extremely supportive, and keeps me accountable. He is knowledgeable and always pushing me to be my best self. I highly recommend Adam and WESTCA to anyone looking for a great workout experience.

Fantastic experience: I love going to work out at WESTCA. Adrian is the BEST! He really takes the time to listen to your goals and sets up a program to help your goals become a reality. Plus he's got a great, upbeat attitude.

Fantastic experience: Adrian at Westca is THE BEST trainer! He pushes me to achieve my fitness goals, and is very thoughtful with planning my workouts around my personal needs and whatever is going on in my life. He makes training fun and is the coolest guy ever. Also, Westca the gym is super clean, the owners and staff are all incredibly knowledgeable and friendly, and the best gym experience I've ever had.

Fantastic experience: Wasn't gonna post anything because I don't want Adrian's schedule to fill up and have it harder for me to get in but he is hands down the best trainer I've had!! Even in a group setting Adrian makes sure to tailor your workouts to be the perfect blend of challenging and effective. He's super motivational and a joy to hang out with! I highly recommend him for anyone looking to up their strength training at any level (new or experienced). Thanks Adrian for pushing me to be able to squat 185 lbs !

Fantastic experience: I have been training at Westca and with Adrian for a few years now. This place is amazing and very family oriented. Adrian has definitely helped me achieve me goals and helped me understand a lot of fitness. Adrian is someone that cares about his clients and goes the extra mile. I'm happy to call to him my friend.

Fantastic experience: Going to the gym and feeling confident in that space has always been a struggle for me, but since starting personal training at WESTCA, there's been a huge shift in mentality. I now walk into the gym ready to put in work in a safe space surrounded by an incredible community. I've been training with Maegs for awhile now and she took the time to get to know me and my goals, for my body but also for my overall wellbeing and mental health. She is respectful, caring, and is the ultimate hypewoman. Gym sessions have become something I look forward to throughout the week, and I have learned so much about the ins and outs of the different ways you can take care of your body through exercise. If you're looking for a gym to become a regular at, or looking for great trainers, I would highly recommend WESTCA!

Fantastic experience: I have so many great things to say about Westca, the trainers, and the members! This gym truly is a place of motivation, support, and no judgment. The owners Tory and Meghan are wonderful and really take into account their members needs like family while maintain a very clean and sanitized gym. I have been a member since they opened and wouldn’t have it any other way. I have been trained by one of the hardest working trainers Andy Le for almost a year now. I do not know where to begin on how amazing Andy has been through all that life has thrown my way including the pandemic in 2020. He is dynamite! He always pushes me harder than I even knew I was capable of doing with weights and commitment to my own self care. He is extremely understanding of my crazy work schedule and does not hold it against me, but does remind me daily that I need to put myself first more often! Training with Andy makes me want to invest in myself more everyday and push myself in all aspects of life. I am grateful to have him as a trainer, motivator, and a big part of fit fam! I cannot wait to meet all the goals I have set out for myself with Andy’s help and all the Westca family! Best gym in the Bay Area!

Fantastic experience: I signed up at WESTCA a little over a year ago . It's got a good selection of weights, racks, machines, and other equipment. The front desk lads are stellar people and quite helpful. The environment is welcoming and supportive, especially because of the wonderful folks that come here to work out. My trainer Adam has been kicking my butt with great sessions for the last 6 months. He's taught me all kinds of new workouts, flexibility/mobility exercises, and even some health/diet suggestions. He's accommodating when I need to reschedule sessions in advance. Adam has been an absolute pleasure to train with!

Fantastic experience: Great community gym. Facilities are clean and the trainers are friendly. Would like to recommend Adam, who's great at designing different programs based on individual requirements and always goes the extra mile for his clients.

Fantastic experience: I used to be a very active individual that does many sports and regularly goes to the gym many years ago before I completely stopped due to reasons like college and work. Coming back was definitely a difficult process. I joined bigger gym chains and ended up just wasting money for memberships that I very rarely used. A little over a year ago, my friend invited me to try WestCA and I instantly loved the place and the vibe the people here have. Everyone is very friendly and welcoming, most people know each other and even hangout together. Aside from that, you can see and feel everyone's determinations to become better versions of themselves each day. That's when I decided to make the commitment to start training with Adam and everything has been going smoothly ever since. I used to think that going back to my "active and fit" form years ago is impossible but now I'm actually much better than I was back then! It's definitely been a pleasurable journey and I hope this will continue for a long time. Thanks Adam and WestCA!

Fantastic experience: I have been taking strength training sessions from Maegs since Sep 2022. Its been an amazing journey so far. I feel stronger everyday. I started from zero, but Maegs has patiently trained me to get better everyday. She pays attention to my exercise posture and she is very humble and motivating while training me. I am very impressed by how accommodating she is when it comes to my schedule and makes room for makeup sessions. Maegs is confident with her answers; one can tell that she has a lot of knowledge in her area. Her cheerful and cute personality makes the training session so much fun. I have seen a huge difference in my body within 2 months of training and I continue to workout every 5 days a week. I started with very confused and skeptical mindset about gym, training, and the overall environment at gym. But, now I am certain that I will continue this for the rest of my life. Credits to Maegs and Westca. ❤️

Fantastic experience: I've been training at WESTCA for 1.5 months. Its a great gym. Superb staff and high quality equipment. My trainer Ivan has been training me and he has adjusted the workouts according to my goals. Also his patience in teaching me form and sub routines is commendable. Provides me motivation and helps me anyway he can. I usually go in the mornings and there is no 15 minute waiting lines at each equipment like in some other gyms. 100% recommend the gym as well as their personal training program.

Fantastic experience: I've been going to Westca for a little over a year now and have used both their private and semi private trainings sessions with Brandon (who's no loner at Westca) and Adam. From getting set up with a consultation to finally "graduating' from semi private training to my regular gym sessions this gym has been nothing short of an amazingly welcoming gym. I was used to those 24 hour fitness gyms which made me scared to try weightlifting. Working out here has been the complete opposite. I had amazing trainers that took the time to teach me the machines and movements and pushed me to do my absolute best each time even when I give them the hardest of times. Since joining, according to my inbody scans and Adam's math - I've cut my body fat in half!!

Fantastic experience: I’ve been coming here for a few months, doing semi-private training, so i workout with my trainer, Adam, and a couple other people. I think westca is the perfect place for any fitness level because you’re surrounded by a helpful staff, knowledgeable trainers, and judgement free peers. I’ve put on 10lbs and lost a percent of body fat in a pretty short time thanks to Adam keeping me accountable, and constantly challenging me. If you try Westca, you’ll never want to go to a regular gym again

Positive experience: My trainer Adam helps me to improve my health and fitness. He understands my goals and organized my plan. He also provides helpful tips and guidance.

Fantastic experience: I am the kind of person that does not like working out. It gives me a lot of anxiety and discomfort being around a lot of people that seem to know what they're doing. However, since I started training at WestCA, all of those discomforts and worries melted away. I've been training with Adam since June 2022, and he has made it the most enjoyable and rewarding life changing experience - something I never thought was possible. He makes every workout challenging, and works with you to make sure you're moving in the ways that work best for you. Everyone at WestCA is warm and welcoming, and makes you feel like you're part of a community. If you're looking for a great community to join, and an awesome trainer, I definitely recommend Adam and WestCA.

Fantastic experience: Going to WestCA is one of my favorite times of day. Everyone is welcoming and the vibe of bettering yourself is all around the room. I signed up for personal training with Adam Rall and he has been the workout partner that I needed. In 6 months, not only have I regained strength that I only had while playing football in high school, but I’ve become ever stronger than those personal bests. I still go to WestCA to train and will continue to do so to reach my workout goals!

Fantastic experience: I am not someone who seeks out a gym for my exercise. However, I was missing strength training and consistency so I needed to find a gym and trainer that would be flexible to my needs. WESTCA was recommended as a gym that has a positive environment and a diverse clientele (age, weight, experience level, gender). I never felt comfortable before in a big box gym environment. The friendly culture and supportive staff, along with my knowledgeable trainer Adam, are what make me return for more. I highly recommend WESTCA and Adam .

Fantastic experience: I started working out at WestCa back in October with Maegs. She brings so much energy and encouragement to the work outs that the time flies. She is also super flexible with her schedule and is always willing to help where she can to make sure you get your work out in. 10/10 recommend her for anyone looking for a person trainer!

Fantastic experience: Every new year brings new beginnings and this year I decided to finally take full control of my health. After shopping around many different programs in 2022 - WESTCA provided the best environment, staff, and support I need that fits my overall goals and lifestyle. I met Ivan, a very friendly, outgoing, kind, but determined individual at a bar and he mentioned to me that he was personal trainer. I was in the market as I wanted to make 2023 my year of wellness and health. Ivan’s philosophy of wellness and health resonated me. I immediately set up the appointments and didn’t hesitate to sign up. So far - it’s been two weeks into my program and I not only see but feel the improvements of my overall quality of life. After years of “working” out off and on, Ivan’s training style to ease me back into it gives me the confidence to wake up and work hard. His workouts are the perfect level of intensity where he pushes me but at the same time doesn’t kill me to function during my extremely busy day to day. I would highly recommend not only Ivan but WESTCA as a place for people who want to change their life. The small facility catalyzes a culture of community and support as the people who go at 5AM are friendly. I’m extremely excited for the next 5 months with Ivan to see how my journey for health and wellness transcends!

Fantastic experience: Love this gym! Small but still feels spacious with well maintained equipment. I mostly use the barbells, dumbbells, and resistance machines but they also have plenty of cardio machines. Have not done personal training here but the trainers are all friendly and focused on their clients. The owners, Megan and Tory, are often there, and they stop to say hi to people so they care about the community they are building here. I feel safe, motivated and productive when I come to Westca.

Negative experience: Great gym, friendly people here but predatory cancellation system for gym membership that eventually lead to exploitation of the member. You always hear about gyms making it VERY hard to cancel the memberships to make extra money and I didn’t really believe that until my experience with WestCA. Before I dive any deeper here is the backstory: Was looking to cancel gym membership for westca since I no longer go, it was an annual membership so it was $500. My membership was set to auto renew December 17th. Mid November I call them and let them know I want to cancel the membership and the staff member let’s me know that he put a note in the system and that their process is to have only the manger to be able to cancel memberships. So he advises that he messages the manager and tells her to leave a note to email confirming that the membership has been cancelled. He did give me a heads up that the manager was “busy”. After 3 weeks with no email with cancel confirmation, I call again this time in early December. The staff confirms that he sees I called earlier and again let’s me know that the manager is busy and he will again shoot her a message to cancel it. I let him know that’s fine she is busy and my main concern is I don’t get charged. He says I won’t get charged and says again that he left a note for the manager to reach out to me when cancelled. About a week passes and still nothing from westca, so this time I decide to follow up in person since the 17th is only a few days away. This time I stop into westca and ask to cancel. I’m told the same thing I’ve been hearing again: yea we see that you requested this in the past, manager is busy and she is only one who can do it, you won’t be charged, we sent ANOTHER message to the manager to cancel and we’ll send an email once cancel is confirmed. Now come to the present day 12/18/22 still nothing from them confirming a cancellation. I get an email from westca about the annual membership subscription auto renewal. Thank god the credit card that I signed up with is no longer valid so the auto renew cancelled. I guess my point in writing all of this is to say their membership cancellation process is absolutely ludicrous. So please heed my warning when considering this gym. I’m not sure how much more proactive I could have been - reaching out 3 times prior to auto renew date and doing so more than a month in advance. I get the manager may be “busy” but with other subscriptions such as Netflix this process takes 30 seconds, what’s the hold up here?! I’m grateful that the auto renew didn’t go thru due to an expired credit card because if it did then I would have to continue this process of trying to remedy the situation with someone who clearly is not showing any effort. Would have went to the better business bureau with my complaints but since the payment failed to process (thank god) , I figured a review woth my experience would help others be aware. PLEASE NOTE THESE SHADY BUSINESS PRACTICES BEFORE SIGNING UP AT THIS GYM.

Fantastic experience: I can honestly say its one of the best gyms! I have been to many gyms where I have felt intimidated and unwelcomed. This gym is super friendly and welcoming. Everyone is trying to achieve their own goals and it’s really motivating. I have started training with Maegan for about 2 months now. Let me tell you she is AMAZING!! She will definitely give you that push that you need and is very knowledgeable. I have learned so much from her and I can already see results. She will get you looking good and feeling good! If you are looking for a trainer she will not disappoint! :)

Fantastic experience: This a review dedicated to Maegs (trainer)!! For context I'm a total newbie when it comes to the gym. Never formally worked out in a gym setting or worked with a trainer. I found the gym setting really intimidating and had a huge mental block to committing to exercising regularly. Maegs has made me feel really comfortable at the gym and given me the knowledge to continue exercising solo once my program with her is over. She is super welcoming and personable. She balances pushing me to the next level and also respecting my comfort level. I definitely feel like I am achieving my goal of creating an enjoyable, healthy, and sustainable relationship with the gym. I was nervous a trainer would push or try to enforce cosmetic/aesthetic goals over my kind of my mental goals with the gym. But I can confidently say Maegs will support you in whatever you come to the gym to achieve.

Fantastic experience: I've been going to WESTCA for 1.5 months now and i'm honestly in love with the place. I've never felt so comfortable and supported at a gym before!! My trainer Maegan has been super helpful in this journey of mine too. She keeps me motivated and pushes me to do my best with every session and has helped me get excited about working out (including being at the gym at 7am) and pushing myself to be the best I can be. It's been an amazing experience. And the rest of the staff is really awesome too and super welcoming and helpful. I can honestly go on forever with more things but I hope I painted a nice picture of this place thus far :) Oh last thing- its SUPER clean and organized which is amazing too. I'd highly recommend this place to anyone

Fantastic experience: Westca has a great environment and I am so glad I gave them a try, I have social anxiety and the gym environment makes me feel at peace.

Fantastic experience: Every since I started training with Andy here at Westca last year I have learned and grown so much. Andy challenges and motivates me each workout session. Even on days where I doubt my strength he is there to push me and support me. He is always introducing different ways to strengthen different muscles, which makes working out challenging and fun. I'm excited to continue growing and becoming stronger as I continue training with him.

Fantastic experience: Such a welcoming gym! I just started my semi-personal training and I was raised to hug people and my trainer welcomes me with hugs! Haha gym is always clean and everyone is actually really friendly and nice. We all have goals and only intimidation part, is yourself. It's comfortable environment, easy to navigate and ask for help. I am very happy I chose Westca as my home gym!

Fantastic experience: Love the gym. It’s always clean has all the equipment you need. You can really sense the community the owners have built. It’s a motivating atmosphere and something everyone should strive for. 2 suggestions tho would be 1) maybe open at 5 in the mornings instead of 530? My partner would love to workout here because of the proximity to our home but the 30 min is a deal breaker since it cuts into the commute. I’m sure there’s a reason for this 2) add more clocks on the weight lifting floor. There is one small analog clock high on the wall, you really have to squint to see the hands on the clock. It’d be convenient to add more clocks or better yet bigger analog clocks with the seconds so people can time their rest breaks for HIIT/Tabata workouts Keep up the great work!

Fantastic experience: Have been a member for about a year. Very friendly staff and members, and in the heart of DTSJ. I mostly keep to myself but I really like the crowd. You get to see what good looks like. It keeps you humble and motivated.

Fantastic experience: Staff is super supportive, inclusive and approachable. Folks of all shapes, sizes and stages of fitness are seen & supported. Plenty of equipment for all sorts of routines (weightlifting, stretching, functional and cardio) They have phone charging station which is a good addition.

Fantastic experience: I’ve been training with Adam at WestCA for nearly a year. Thanks to Adam, over this past year I’ve gotten significantly stronger, more confident in the gym, and have focused more on my nutrition and overall health goals. The gym itself is super welcoming and supportive and is a great place to work out. I look forward to going every week! I 100% recommend both Adam and WestCA for a great trainer and fitness community!

Fantastic experience: I have been going to Westca for about four years now and I can honestly say it has transformed my view of fitness. The environment and people at Westca are unlike any other. It is a community where you will find encouragement, education and motivation thanks to the owners Meaghan and Tory. People of all fitness levels are welcome and everyone is just so friendly. I never did much weight lifting but after doing group training with Meaghan and Paulina, who are exceptional, I feel comfortable with pushing myself. I really could go on and on about how much I love this gym. I highly recommend it!

Fantastic experience: By far the best gym in San Jose. Great variety of equipment and always in working order. If something is non functional they are quick to get it fixed. Tory and Meaghan (owners) have a great team of well educated staff and resources. I signed up for personal training for a period of time to get a head start on some fitness goals. The workouts were tailored to me specifically and I was taught why certain exercises were beneficial for me. Wrapping it up the biggest take away is the environment that's been created. It can be hard for those going to a new gym to make friends or have conversations. It's quite the opposite here. The environment and people are warm, friendly and inviting no matter what level of fitness one may be at. Whether you're looking to get a couple workouts in a week, receive training or bodybuild this gym is for everyone.

Fantastic experience: I have now been a member at WestCA for 18 months, with Adrian as my personal trainer. The atmosphere and culture of WestCA is so welcoming and encouraging. Wherever you are on your fitness journey, you will receive the support and guidance that you need. And I highly recommend Adrian as a trainer, he's an ultimate professional, but still has a wicked sense of humor. A big thanks to Adrian, Tory, Meaghan, and the whole WestCA team!
