Block Fitness Oro Valley: Reviews
Fantastic experience: Very positive atmosphere with helpful people attending. I appreciate what it does for me.
Fantastic experience: I LOVE Block Fitness. I am trying to get back into the habit of working out and decided to give it a try. Not only is the facility clean and bright but the trainers give incredible personalized attention and positive feedback. Since I'm "self taught" on some exercises, their input has helped me get the most out of my work outs. I've recommended Block Fitness to everyone I know.
Fantastic experience: Started circuit training and just love the exercise and the caring level of the staff!
Fantastic experience: Phenomenal gym with stellar, knowledgeable and friendly instructors (shoutout to Stephanie, James, Joanna, Ethan and Shaylin, who I see most frequently). Place is clean with good equipment. App program is easy to follow and scheduling highly flexible. Excellent for gym beginners and veterans alike.
Fantastic experience: Very nice gym and excellent coaching. Just what I was looking for.
Thank you for the fantastic review, Dave! We're thrilled to hear that you find our gym and coaching to be just what you were looking for. Your satisfaction is our priority, and we look forward to seeing you continue your fitness journey with us!
Fantastic experience: Knowledgeable coaches with attention to detail and form. Great workout protocol!
Thank you for your wonderful feedback, Bill! We're glad to hear you found our coaches knowledgeable and appreciated their focus on detail and form. Your support motivates us to keep providing great workout experiences!
Fantastic experience: I am so glad to have discovered Block Fitness Oro Valley. It's an entirely different way of working out to build strength. There are several coaches on the floor at any given time, keeping an eye on me and helping me as needed. I work from a plan through an app on my phone that they specifically design for my needs, and they adjust it as needed. They work with all ages of adults, but especially with seniors who have certain physical limitations. It's different than any gym I've belonged to, and the coaches are incredibly friendly and fun.
Thank you for your wonderful review, Cindy! We're thrilled to hear that you are enjoying your experience at Block Fitness Oro Valley. Our dedicated coaches are here to support you every step of the way, and we appreciate your kind words about our tailored programs. We look forward to continuing to help you on your fitness journey!
Fantastic experience: Block fitness is by far the best gym I’ve ever attended! The staff are all so kind and knowledgeable. They are all more than happy to explain different movements + technicalities to you and never make you feel bad if you aren’t doing something right. They are so accommodating for your individual fitness goals. The training is very functional and well crafted for all athletic levels. Such a cool place! Thank you Block!
Thank you for the amazing review, Clara! We're thrilled to hear that you had such a positive experience with our staff and training programs. Our goal is to support everyone in their fitness journey, and your feedback truly motivates us. We look forward to seeing you again soon!
Fantastic experience: During my time here at Block I was in one of the greatest gym environments I have personally ever been from the trainers who all do an amazing job at not only helping throughout workouts but also connecting with each client. Clients/ other gym goers were also very nice and all and all a very positive gym environment as a whole
Thanks for joining the program and letting us be a guide in your journey!
Fantastic experience: Great space, clean, supportive, and the coaches are friendly, knows you by name and checks in on you and your goals. I’ve joined many big gyms before, and this is my first time with a semi-private gym where the classes averages only 8 people, you don’t need to wait for equipment, it’s not loud or intimidating. Every one is there to achieve their own goals, and the coaches will support you in yours. Love it here!
Love having you man! You're rocking it.
Fantastic experience: I have had the best experience with this gym and with the support of their staff. In other gym experiences, I get assessed at the gym as being able to handle more than my body and my injuries really can. At Block Fitness, they challenge me at my level, take into account my injuries, create custom plans built to build me and setting me up for success! I could not be happier and feel more empowered! The environment is comfortable and inviting. I used to fear the gym but here, I feel comfortable and confident! Tell Block Fitness that Jamie Seedall sent you! It’ll start your membership with a discount!
So great to hear that you couldn’t be happier and the plan is working so well for you! Keep rocking. We love having you!
Fantastic experience: Form, fit, fun. Focused instructors. Love this.
Appreciate it and glad to hear!
Fantastic experience: Block is exactly what Joseph built it to be - a community built around fitness for all. I have been working with Block for just around 3 years now. I love the support of all the coaches, the workouts that are meant for me and my needs each month. My workouts push me as needed. My son that plays competitive sports also joined, two years later the results he sees are tremondous just not on his plays but also in helping keep flexible and injury free. The community welcomed both of us with open arms and has extended beyond the gym.
It was awesome to read this! You both are such important parts of the community. We value you both so much! Thanks for the kind words
Fantastic experience: Joseph is the ultimate personal trainer. He focuses on YOU, he creates exercises to strengthen your weak areas in a supportive and caring way. Best of all is the take home video exercises created just for you in their app so you can do workouts at home with alternate exercises using your own body or simple free weights. Block fitness has a fun vibe and I look forward to my sessions there.
Love having you Natalie! You're doing amazing :)
Fantastic experience: Joined a month ago and couldn’t be happier. I’m not in great shape so I was worried but the plan they set for me is challenging without being too difficult. And the coaches are always there to encourage or push you if needed. I feel comfortable as a 59 year old at this gym and am looking forward to continuing to improving my fitness with the Block Team.
Fantastic experience: I absolutely fell in love with this place my first week in. Everyone is amazing!! The community, the coaches, and the owner are all so welcoming and kind. I definitely recommend this place!
Ahh, thanks Stella and great to hear! We love having you!
Fantastic experience: The staff at Block Fitness designed a workout plan that is tailored to my needs. During the semi-private classes, they are readily available to check on form and make suggestions for modifications. I think this is the best of both belonging to a gym and having a personal trainer at a reasonable cost.
So happy to hear! Love having you Deborah. Keep up the great work!
Fantastic experience: Block Fitness is nothing short of life changing. I’ve not only improved my physical strength, but I believe Block is why my mental health improved as well. Every coach has had a profound impact on my life by showing me I am stronger than I think. If you are looking to improve your fitness and quality of life, then Block Fitness is the place for you!
Fantastic experience: I started at Block Fitness because I needed direction. It’s been a great experience with Simi private coaching. The app is so helpful and helps keep me on track. They take into consideration any and all issues related to my body needs. I’m greatful to have found this gym.
Thanks for sharing Judy! Love having you!
Fantastic experience: Caroline and the entire team are amazing! This is a great gym with really nice people. Everyone is welcomed and the instructors are very educated (and fun). They help all people at levels of fitness. I just started going back to the gym and found my people on the “Block” in my neighborhood at BlockFitness
Awe, so awesome to read! We love having you!
Fantastic experience: For someone like me who is not comfortable in public environments, joining a gym seemed way out of my comfort zone. At 62years, I’m into trying new things and am so grateful for Block Fitness. The facility is clean and fresh and the equipment is well maintained. The exercise program is easy to follow and the attention given to the client by the coaching staff is above and beyond. I am motivated to work out and am happy with the results.
So happy to hear! Thanks for sharing! Keep rocking it!
Fantastic experience: I am new to Block but have trained at multiple gyms in the past. The on-boarding here was fantastic - they really assessed my level and developed a training plan for me that works. I love their coaches and the personal attention and small gym atmosphere is fantastic.
You're awesome Meg! So glad it's a good fit. Love having you!
Fantastic experience: Block Fitness is amazing. Interesting concept. Loved all the coaches and felt like they really paid attention, gave good suggestions, and knew how to make modifications if I needed them. The space is large and airy and well equipped. Lots of positive energy. Highly recommend!
Fantastic experience: Everyone here is so caring and helpful and encouraging. I feel very lucky to be a member. They work so hard to make your exercise experience super positive!!!
Love having you! You're doing great!!
Fantastic experience: Just what I need!
Yay! We love ya Renee!
Fantastic experience: Great gym. Staff is super nice and helpful and it’s not an intimidating space. They cater to people of all fitness levels and are a wonderful local business to support!
Thanks Rosalind!
Fantastic experience: Coaches are motivating and supportive, always providing helpful feedback and programming to meet my individual goals. This is a very comfortable environment, even for a gym newbie!
Yay! Glad you're loving it Sarah!
Fantastic experience: Been a member for about two months and I'm loving it. The gym has just about any piece of equipment you could ask for. It's a fun and friendly environment with staff and other members. The staff is well trained and does a good job of pushing you, but in a non-aggressive way.
Glad you’re loving it! Love having you. Keep rocking it Ben!
Fantastic experience: Fantastic gym. Really welcoming and great for all levels
Thanks Corinthia!
Fantastic experience: Lost about 30 lbs recently.. needed to ‘firm’ up a bit..this is the place to do it. I had lost so much strength..I needed to be strong again! Been going for a month and the change is noticable.. the trainers are so helpful..if an exercise is difficult, they suggest different ways to do it and still get results! Always hated the gym…but i love this one! I actually look forward to having sore muscles… because those muscles are getting stronger..and I feel better! Great place!
Fantastic experience: This is my second month with Block Fitness. I was a bit intimidated at first with getting my exercise plans online and figuring out what to do! On the first day I was greeted and welcomed and assisted with every aspect of my concerns addressed. I work at my own pace, choose my own weights and the exercises that I found challenging were modified for me by the staff. Staff are knowledgeable, patient, kind and encouraging! I am 73 and decided to take a MetaFit class. Although I was clearly the oldest in the class and couldn’t remember what do do in spite of just watching a demonstration, the instructor Aubrey was kind enough to show me again! I actually made it through the entire class and have signed up for another one. Love this place!
Fantastic experience: Great workouts and trainers! Super helpful and knowledgeable.
Yay! So happy you're loving everything!
Fantastic experience: Coaches are friendly and helpful. Facility is clean with plenty of space for workouts
You're doing great! Thanks for the kind words
Fantastic experience: Experience of.Block Fitness: 6 stars. Experience of Exercise: not my cup of tea They make it more bearable. Highly recommended. Block Fitness, I mean, and I suppose exercise in general, too.
Thanks for the kind review! Glad you’re finding the positives of exercise :)
Fantastic experience: Been with Block for about a month and have loved how much stronger I’m feeling already. Not to mention the flexibility and balance that I’ve already seen improved. The coaches have been wonderful! Really positive experience.
Fantastic experience: After I had rhabdo last year and wrecked my legs, I was terrified to exercise again and I didn’t know how to navigate that on my own, so I started Semi-Private training here at Block Fitness. It’s a safe and supportive environment where you receive a custom plan tailored to your personal goals, but you’re still in the gym with other people, which makes it feel less intimidating than one-on-one personal training. You get a new plan every four weeks so it keeps things fresh and engaging. The highlight of Block Fitness is the coaches. They are great at meeting you at your current fitness and skill level, while at the same time motivating you to overcome the mental obstacles holding you back. I attend on the same days and at the same time each week, so I almost always have the same coaches, which has been great because it has allowed me to build trust in their abilities. I see James the most and he is super knowledgeable, great about explaining which muscles each exercise works and how they are helping me work towards my goals. Shaylin is so friendly and helpful, and it’s very encouraging when Caroline walks by and says, “I like that weight.” Overall, I’ve really been enjoying my time here and never thought I would be a gym kind of person, but here we are.
Wow Kristi! What a wonderful review! Thank you so much. We are so happy you found us and that the program and coaches are everything you needed! Keep up the great work!
Fantastic experience: This type of workout facility fits me perfectly. Semi-private training sessions and group training sessions are perfect for anyone, your program is specifically set to you. The effort put forward from the trainers to keep me pushing myself in a safe manner and effective manner is outstanding. Staff connects with you to make sure you're doing well outside the workout sessions and answer any questions you have. The facility is clean and inviting, the other clients are fun and supportive. I highly recommend Block Fitness Collective.
So happy you’re loving it! We love having you Elna. You’re doing great!
Fantastic experience: The personal programs mixed with the incredible coaching is the best!
❤️
Fantastic experience: The best gym in Oro Valley! This boutique gym encompasses a welcoming and positive environment and fosters a supportive community. There is so much value in a membership at Block; Not only do you get a custom program designed for your goals, but there are highly skilled and knowledgeable coaches on the floor to ensure you are training safely and effectively. The group workouts, Meta-Fit, are low impact, yet challenging! Whether you are an athlete looking to improve in your sport or are just starting out in your fitness journey, Block Fitness Collective is the gym for you. Block Fitness is also locally owned and operated!
Thanks for the kind words Samantha!
Fantastic experience: Muscle mass is lost due to aging.... that was the article that sent me to a gym for the first time in my life. I can lift quite a bit more weight than when I started 6 months ago so I know there is improvement. The trainers have helped a lot, especially with explanations of how a particular exercise helps and how to do it correctly without hurting myself. And I have met some very nice people there doing the same thing that I am doing.
You’re rocking it Cliff! So happy you’re building the muscle you were after. Keep it up man!
Fantastic experience: Started with Joseph years ago before he moved to Arizona. His new location looks amazing. I’ve worked with him remotely from California through Covid lockdown and beyond. He’s great and really cares about his clients. He makes working out become an integral part of your life for people that never thought they could lift weights and have fun doing it!
❤️ you're too kind! Thanks Lisa!
Fantastic experience: Joseph and the entire staff are very professional and courteous in all they do. The gym is busy enough to have people to talk to, but they plan classes sizes out so you get that personal attention as well, its the best of both worlds.
Thanks Rick! We love having you man. You put in so much hard work every time you step into the gym!
Fantastic experience: I have been out of the gym for awhile due to knee issues and didn’t know how to work out safely. I decided to try semi-private training at Block Fitness, and I’m so happy! The programming is geared to work around my issues and give me a great workout. Very clean gym with a wide variety of equipment. The coaches are knowledgeable and supportive, and I am getting my fitness and confidence back. Highly recommend!!
Yay! So happy to hear your knees are doing great! We love having you Penny!
Fantastic experience: Block is great! Joseph and the whole team really care about you as an individual. The attention to detail and community are awesome! Can’t say enough good things about them!
Too kind, sir!
Fantastic experience: Great place for a consistently delivered workout
Yay! So great to hear :)
Fantastic experience: I have never been a gym member & always felt uncomfortable/intimidated to use one. I’m 63, so it’s been a lifetime problem. I found Block Fitness on facebook & it was close to my home, so I set up a meeting to see what they were about. I truly love them, it comfortable, there are trainers to help, it’s clean & smaller classes. My only downfall is the pricing, I do understand they give lots of support but the price point is larger for retired people to n a more fixed income. I wish they offered some less expensive options. But they are truly worth the money & a wonderful place
Thank for the kind words Geri! Hope it was the perfect jumpstart with some knowledge and focus so you can keep it going. Loved having you!
Fantastic experience: Everyone of the trainers are great to work with. They set up your workouts specifically designed for you and what your needs are. It’s a fun healthy take care of business workout that has exceeded my expectations. Thanks Block Fitness.
Wow! Thanks Paul! So happy to be helping!
Fantastic experience: Great culture, most amazing trainers, electrifying results. Worth every penny!
Thanks for the review and kind words Seth!
Fantastic experience: I can't believe it's already been a year since I was referred to Joseph and Block Fitness. I have knee issues, which is why I have the privilege of training one-on-one with the coaches Joseph, Juliet, Ethan, Becky, Jo, and Caroline and taking part in the 5 a.m. Meta Fit class. Their knowledge, skill, and unwavering dedication to your success and celebrating your achievements are what sets them apart. They know when to push you and are with you every step of the way. It's more than just achieving fitness; it's about the feeling of belonging. I'm so grateful for all the encouragement, the laughs, and the motivation they bring to this amazing journey. Block Fitness is more than a place to work out; it's your fitness community.
We love and appreciate you Jill!
Fantastic experience: The Block Fitness team are awesome! I was a little nervous about starting at a gym — I had no idea what I was doing, I was healing from an injury, and I wasn’t in my best shape. The team here are so genuinely warm and helpful that I quickly got over that. They created workouts targeted to get me past my injury without exacerbating it, and they are really good at pushing in a way that makes me challenge myself. All the other folks working out are really nice, but focused on their own workouts, so it’s a great, upbeat vibe without any judgement/peer pressure. I never thought I would be a “gym person” but I absolutely love going now, and I’m the strongest I’ve ever been. Can’t recommend them highly enough!
You're awesome Kristin! So happy that you found us and we were able to help with injury recovery :)
Fantastic experience: Fantastic, knowledgeable, caring coaches.This is an amazing gym! The staff is all top tier and the client support is the best!
Thanks Anne! Love watching you get stronger each day! Keep up the great work.
Fantastic experience: Great place. The gym is super clean and kept nice. Just by the clients, you can tell the coaching staff is caring, know what they’re doing, and connect with every single person there.
Fantastic experience: I finally found the place for me!!!! Two major reasons: First and foremost I needed a place that put their emphasis on long term health, and prioritized a healthy mindset around working out. I want to do triathlons for the rest of my life, so strength and mobility are key for that longevity in the sport. I also want to love working out for the rest of my life, so I needed a place where I WANT to go. BLOCK FITNESS DELIVERED!! They are supporting my health for the long game, and I love the community feel! The second big reason is schedule flexibility! I never pulled the trigger on personal training at other gyms because I just couldn’t consistently commit. The structure of the Block Fitness programming allows me to get a plan tailored for ME, work out under the watchful eye and encouragement of a coach, and do that on a time table that works for me. I can even take the workout on the road when I travel, thanks to the handy app with video instruction. I am sold on Block Fitness!!
Yes! Here’s to decades more of triathlons and a long healthy life. Appreciate the kids words and so happy you found us!
Fantastic experience: Block Fitness is hands down the best gym I have ever been a part of! From the custom workouts that are tailored for you and your goals to the best coaches that are truly there for your success and growth, you will not be disappointed!
Ahhh!! Thanks Bailey! You’re the best of the best. We love training you and appreciate all that you do to give back to your fellow members.
Fantastic experience: My time at Block Fitness has been nothing short of life changing. I’ve done the “gym thing” since the early 80’s; I have never had the type of positive experience or results from any other fitness program as I have with Block. Every single coach at Block knows me and has been invested in my success and I am eternally grateful. At 64 years old, I feel better, healthier, stronger and more focused on my physical wellbeing than I have in decades. Thank you Block!
You’re one incredible human, Michelle! Your dedication to training and improving is nothing short of amazing. So proud of you! The entire Block Fitness crew loves ya! Thanks for the kind words.
Fantastic experience: Love the environment. The coaches are amazing!
Yay! Love having you. You’re doing amazing!
Fantastic experience: JoLee Kovacic Block Fitness is an amazing studio. All the coaches are super friendly, knowledgeable and encouraging. The community at this studio is incredible and it is such a joy working out here and making new friends.
We love having you Jolee! You’re always a bright light in the studio, smiling, welcoming, and working hard! Thanks!
Fantastic experience: Genuinely the very best gym I have ever been to. Not only do they meet you where you are they encourage you to do what’s best for your body. All while teaching you about why you do what you do and how to do the exercises correctly. Not only do you show up and are greeted with a warm welcome from every single one of the coaches, you are greeted by other block members who never make you feel like your walking in on a private conversation. Block also has the best of the best equipment and are constantly adding to the tools necessary to have the best workout. An amazing community with amazing coaches. 10/10 recommend to anyone and everyone!!
Thanks Amelia! Amazing how much you’ve learned and the strength you’ve picked up! Keep rocking lady!
Fantastic experience: Block Fitness is the gym I needed! I love putting the work in, but didn't know the correct things to do to get my desired outcome. I show up, do the specific workout created for me, and I'm done! The trainers are amazing and ensure you are doing things correctly, and challenge you to push just a little extra when they know you aren't working to your full potential. I highly recommend Block Fitness!
You’re doing great! Keep it up! Thanks for the kind words. So happy you found us.
Fantastic experience: Simply the best gym in Oro Valley.
❤️
Fantastic experience: Block Fitness has been a game changer for my fitness & strength. As I get older, I realize weight lifting is so important and Block has helped me get stronger while doing the moves safely, with the knowledgeable instructors always watching our form. Ethan always has great hip exercises too for our stiff hips, doing these help relieve some back pain I suffer from. Thanks Block! You guys rock
You're getting so strong! Wonderful to have you and so wonderful to have you be a part of the community! We love ya back!
Fantastic experience: The owners Joseph and Karil, as well as the 3 other coaches (Caroline, Ethan, and James) that I have met at Block Fitness are friendly, motivating, and are well versed in fitness and nutrition. If you have injuries or medical limitations, they will create the perfect workout program for you, and are always there to ensure proper form. Block offers both custom workouts designed specifically for you, group circuit training, or both. Just let them know what your fitness goals are, and they will set you up!
So glad your back is doing SO good with the programming. Love having you at Block! We apreciate your energy and hard work!
Fantastic experience: If you are looking for a great place to work out with excellent coaches, amazing environment and incredible hospitality this is the right place for you. One of the best gyms I've ever been to. I highly recommend!
Thanks Eduardo! We love having you rock it at the gym! Getting strong my man!
Fantastic experience: Block Fitness is a special place. I found Block through a friend when I was recovering from ankle surgery. I was ready to get back into working out but was nervous about finding what I could do safely and what I couldn't do yet. From day one, every trainer helped me find my limits and work to surpass them. Eight months later I am doing things I haven't done in years with my ankle and my body. I'm loving working out more than ever. I'm grateful for the mentality of Block. I feel safe, respected, and valued. Each time I attend a class there is laughter, fun, and I push myself to new limits with the support of some really caring coaches and people.
So glad your friend told you to come in! Your ankle recovery has been amazing! Love how hard you work day in and day out!
Fantastic experience: The Block Fitness Collective is awesome! Everyone I have met there has been super friendly and inspiring – both coaches and other members. In the past, I have struggled going to the gym, but at The Block – I look forward to it.
We love that YOU love coming! Happy we can make it such a great spot for you. Keep rocking Heather!
Fantastic experience: BlockFit is the best gym I've ever belonged to. The energy is high, the coaches know what they are talking about and support don't judge, workouts can be tailored to your specific needs and those that join Blockfit are fun and supportive too. I really enjoy going there.
Thanks for the kind words Liane! We hope to always provide all that for you!
Fantastic experience: Block Fitness is a great gym with coaches who really care. The workouts are safe and effective!
Thanks Jenny! So happy your knee is doing so good these days! Love having you!
Fantastic experience: Joseph is like none other in the business! Professional, knowledgeable, fun, caring, kind and someone to look up to. He represents what he preaches! He has great workouts each month, an app to track your progress in his group strength training program and gives regularly to local charities. I am so glad my friend brought me to check out his program because I've found a great place to not only workout, but meet a new group of friends. Check Block Fitness out, I don't think you'll be disappointed.
Fantastic experience: I am motivated by the semi-private training. The workout is designed specifically for me and the routine changes monthly. I am getting stronger (2 months in) and have more balance. The trainers and other participants are wonderful. I have trained with Caroline, Ethan, James, Joanna, and Joseph. And, from my experience, I appreciate how friendly and non-judgemental everyone is at Block Fitness.
Yay! Doing so so great! We are happy to be there for you!
Fantastic experience: Block fitness has been a winning recipe for me. The coaching is top notch, the atmosphere is encouraging, and the app is great. I always thought my genetics/injuries wouldn't allow me to workout regularly, but Block has tailored a workout plan that helped with form and proper exercises to get strong . PS - when they advertise any age - they mean it.
What a great review to read Brett! Love the results you’re getting. Happy you walked in and trusted us. Thanks for being a great part of the community!
Fantastic experience: Fantastic place to strength train with customized workouts. The coaches are knowledgeable and upbeat. Very supportive, no judgment environment.
Thanks Bobbi! You're rocking it ❤️
Fantastic experience: Edit: I’ve been here for a few months now and it’s still fabulous! Most of my workouts have been with Coaches Caroline, Juliet, Ethan, James or Joseph. All super helpful! Bottom Line Up Front: Block is an awesome place with knowledgeable coaches who help move you toward your personal best with every interaction. I’ve been here a month now and participate in the semi-private training sessions. While they are semi-private, I can always count on a coach to be around to help with my form and to answer any questions I might have. With every visit, I learn something new. The group classes, called Meta-Fit, are an awesome challenge in a group setting (complete with modifications, as needed). The vibe and culture is one of encouragement. The workout is challenging, yet fun. I’m seeing progress in my body already and am enjoying the culture of feeling like I’m with a group of like-minded friends who encourage and support one another along the way. This place is awesome. Come as you are, whether you are already super fit or a rookie like me. You will be challenged and supported no matter where you are in your journey.
Wow! Such a kind and amazing review! So happy to hear you’re loving it and seeing results! Keep up the great work Chris!
Fantastic experience: I was looking for some personal training in a group setting and this exceeded my expectations! The trainers are awesome and I receive my own personal training program to fit my needs. I'm getting stronger every day! I used to have to get on all fours to get up from the floor, but not anymore!
Wonderful to read Teresa! So love having you at Block and helping you achieve all your goals ❤️
Fantastic experience: Upbeat, very positive and the owners and trainers all make you feel at home!! They are hands on and make sure your form is on point. They truly care about your well being! There is nothing like this gym in Oro Valley. If you are thinking about getting your health and fitness on track please sign up and see for your self. Love this place!
Thanks for the kind words Mara!!
Fantastic experience: I’m in my 4th year of happily and successfully working out at BFC. The coaching team is extraordinary and they all help me individually and together to help me reach my fitness goals and to go further than I thought I could go. Thank you all for everything y’all do. The team is truly the best.
You’re rocking it lady! Stronger and fitter than ever!
Fantastic experience: I started going to the gym because I had some specific goals (lose some weight, be able to do a pull up), but wasn’t particularly excited about going -I had tried and “failed” with at-home programs, big box gyms, circuit-style programs, and personal trainers. My experience with Joseph and the gym shifted all of this radically. My goals have changed (I now want to work out for the sake of working out-it’s its own reward—and because of my long term goal of being strong AF when I am an old lady), my relationship with my body has changed (I now focus on the weight I lift, rather than the weight of my body, and focus on performance rather than appearance—though both my weight and appearance have improved considerably!), and I have better mental health too-I am more optimistic, hopeful, and confident. While I owe much of this to Joseph’s training, it is also the community he builds at the gym that keeps me going. When I’m traveling, I’ll still work out (he has helped me craft in-room workouts so I can stay balanced and sane on business trips), but being able to sweat, suffer, laugh, and celebrate with other people in a place where I am cared about and seen has made a world of difference. Joseph also helped me stay the course when I went through a year of physical therapy. He worked with me to integrate my particular limitations and needs into my plan so that when I finally got back under the barbell, I saw rapid improvement and gains. Both the programming and the positive attitude helped me get through a very challenging year! The TL;DR is: I went from someone who knew I needed to make a change in my lifestyle and wasn’t particularly thrilled with it to someone who loves the gym. I promise you, if you are on the fence, or if you have tried other places and didn’t like them, this one is worth a shot!
You're one amazing human Alex! Love your dedication to training and the results you've had!
Fantastic experience: Awesome Community that encourages and inspires everyone to achieve their own personal goals!
Yessir! Thanks James!
Fantastic experience: I just started with Block and cannot say enough good things about this program/gym. Great staff, great follow up and feedback, and very involved. It is great to see your coaches working out right along with the other clients and staying connected to the system they use. I am also doing the nutrition program and love the accountability I receive and the accessibility of my coach! If you are looking to get started, or step back into fitness, Joseph and Karil have the program and team to get it done! 6 week update: Still five star and still one of the best experiances I have had in a gym and with fitness in general. I have learned so much while working with Joseph and his coaching team as well as Karil on nutrition and relearning how to not only fuel my workouts, but change my relationship with food. If you are looking for a fun, professional, and results driven gym, THIS is the place!!
You're rocking it man! Love watching your strength shoot up and so happy that your knees and back are feeling great!
Fantastic experience: Great atmosphere, great staff and challenging workouts!!! Totally worth joining!
We love having you Amber! Thanks for sharing :)
Fantastic experience: BLOCK coaches help in the friendliest way. The gym is always clean and inviting!
Thanks for sharing Julie! Love having you in the gym every week!
Fantastic experience: James is one of the nicest people I know. Kind, caring and likes his work as a trainer.
Thanks Susan! Love training you!
Fantastic experience: Where should I start? The trainers offer private, semi private and group classes. You get the 4th month free if you pay 149$/ month. Okay that's more than your gym but you get RESULTS FAST. You will be pushed in a group class for example because you have 2 other people doing the same exercises 6 total to motivate you. It's a mind set a bit addictive to wake up Saturday morning early to attend group at 7am. I no longer want to sleep in. Caroline, Juliette and Joseph will become like sisters and brothers - the owners/ managers and trainers. They are knowledgeable about your form and assist those with injuries to modify the exercises. It's fun, and the best part is it goes by so fast. If you want to start tightening up, losing inches and considering a healthy diet then I recommend trying a free metafit group class. You will feel so good.
Wow Darcelle! Thanks for such a high level, kind, and powerful review! Wasn't expecting to wake up and see that. You're amazing!
Fantastic experience: Block Fitness keeps my workouts personalized and fresh. Joseph and his team are great at creating routines that push me while protecting a prior knee injury. I love my gym family!
So great to read Kris! We love having you at Block. You bring such fun energy and work hard everyday!
Fantastic experience: The meta-fit program is an excellent approach to get in shape - especially your core. Staff are fantastic. Highly recommend Block Fitness!
Thanks Dan! You're rocking it
Fantastic experience: I’m leaving a review on behalf of my wife. She has been a member for 3 years and loves this gym. The coaches and members are welcoming and encouraging. The workouts are challenging but they vary so you never get bored. It’s a local owned, Oro Valley treasure in the sea of franchise gyms.
Thanks Carmen and Rick!
Fantastic experience: At Block you'll find knowledgeable coaches, challenging workouts, and a welcoming atmosphere. It's a recipe for success!
Thanks Krista! Your results are amazing my friend!
Fantastic experience: An amazing place! Joseph and his staff truly care about not just your fitness but also your health. Their passion, knowledge, and caring about each individual makes it a unique experience that improves the quality of many lives.
Thanks so much Kathy! You’re amazing to have at the gym. Love helping every step of the way
Fantastic experience: I love Block Fitness!! I was ready for a change and had done Orange Theory, F45, and other gyms etc.. I wanted more one on one attention and strength building, not so much cardio. They offer group classes as well as customized solo workouts specifically focused on your goals. All of the coaches are knowledgeable, helpful and encouraging. There’s more of a community environment at this gym and I really appreciate that. Check out Block Fitness, you will not regret it!
Thanks for Jill! Made us so happy to read such kind words. We are just as happy you found us and you're a huge part of our community!
Fantastic experience: I've been with Block a year now and most importantly it's the staff that deserves the review. The environment is fun, friendly and all understanding to each individual there. The gym is well equipped and always clean which is a must for most. Much respect for all of the trainers and their efforts to the members. To You!!!!
Thanks Maresa! We do our best. The coaches will appreciate reading your kind words!
Fantastic experience: I have been working out here over a year. The group classes are small and challenging. The coaches are all amazing people. I absolutely love working out with Juliette two mornings a week- she is funny and encouraging and supportive to everyone- and knowledgeable. Every coach at Block is non-judgmental and meets you at the fitness level you’re at. They push you to be better and do better, but also can adjust exercises on the fly or any injuries or challenges you may have. They are also all amazing at protecting our bodies from injuries. They know body mechanics and the workouts are designed to strengthen your spine and protect your joints and not cause damage to them. I love this as a healthcare provider. The members of the gym are awesome too! Thanks Block! Cannot recommend them enough!
Thanks Kinnette! Means the world. So grateful you are a part of the gym and community. Keep rocking it!
Fantastic experience: Block Fitness is fabulous. The coaches are very invested in my progress. They are so welcoming and friendly. The workout programs change monthly and are developed for me, individually. The gym is very well equipped. I highly recommend Block Fitness!
Thanks Julie! You're one hard working woman! Keep up the great work. We are grateful for you!
Fantastic experience: Great local gym with unique group training concepts. Coaches are super awesome and genuine. Highly recommend Block Fitness.
Appreciate you Ashwani! Keep rocking sir!
Fantastic experience: Coach Joseph, Juliet and Caroline are 5+ stars. The gym is an amazing family to be part of and I’m so glad I found it. I look forward to my custom fit sessions and my 6am regulars. I can’t say enough of how much it’s helped me on my fitness journey and I will continue to always be part of this amazing gym and group of people. If I could give it more than 5 stars, I would. Want results? Come to the Block.
We love having you at Block Danilo! Thanks for such kind words. We hope to continue to deliver!
Fantastic experience: The best gym hands down. I never have stuck with a gym this long and I believe it’s because you are getting a trainer to guide you through the whole workout and a regimen to follow. I could never go to a gym and make myself workout properly so block fitness has been perfect for me. Everyone is super nice
Thanks Kristin! So happy you're able to find a place that keeps you consistently coming. You're getting so strong. Love having you!
Fantastic experience: Block has changed my entire family lives. Never did I imagine my mom or sister working out. Now they are inspiring me to push myself in the gym. It’s surreal to see how passionate they have become. Thank you block for being such an amazing community. You have given them practical tools to make real change. Not only that, everyone is so welcoming and it’s such a safe space for everyone.
Thanks Derek! Appreciate you brother!
Fantastic experience: Great place to exercise. The coaches are amazing and very knowledgeable. They are there to help you in any way possible.
You’re amazing Charlotte! Keep rocking.
Fantastic experience: The thing I love most about Block is knowing that the coaches are always watching and paying attention to form. They encourage, correct, motivate and make Block a place I love coming to. They know each persons strengths and weaknesses and they communicate with each other. If I have an issue with my shoulder one day, you can bet another coach is going to check on that the next time I come in. I love knowing that the coaches will push me but also always have my back
Such a kind review! We got you Michelle! Thanks for being such an awesome part of the community!
Fantastic experience: "You belong here," is painted on the entrance of Block Fitness. It is the first thing you see as you approach, and it is certainly what you'll feel when you walk through the doors. The trainers are very knowledgeable; and ready to support, push, and inspire. This is a gym like no other I've experienced. Yes, come here to train your body, to get strong, get in shape - be prepared to find your spirits lifted and your face smiling a lot - even as you sweat and challenge yourself to improve. If you're thinking about it, try it! This place is special.
Wow! Such an amazing review! Thanks, Lucinda. So happy you found us. We love training you.
Fantastic experience: Incredible (new) facility, incredible people. If you're looking for a tremendous fitness experience, do yourself a favor and check out Block. This place is more than a gym, it is close knit community with boundless support for every member as they purse their fitness goals.
Appreciate you Allan!
Fantastic experience: Getting back into fitness after moving to Oro Valley and finishing cancer treatment has been challenging but finding a community at Block Fitness has been such a rewarding experience. The staff is so helpful and encouraging. They help me modify when I need to and help me push through to meet my fitness goals. I’m so grateful for the experience they bring to this journey I am on. Come try out Block fitness and you will be home!
Thanks Nicole! Glad you found us after moving here from California! We love having you :)
