Fantastic experience: Where do I start? First off, thank you to Underground Fitness who’s been my home gym for about 3 1/2 months. Loved the dynamics of a personalize training session with a small group of people. Most Importantly, a huge deep appreciation to the owner Kevin! I came in late December to Inquire about the Gym and my experience since than has been nothing but Amazing! This place has brought me immense joy to my fitness journey and “Thank You” for helping us every step of the way. You have brought out the “Dog” in me Kev and pushed me to greater heights I never could have imagined. We just getting started! So again, thank you brother - I appreciate you! If you’re looking for a GYM that makes you feel at home? This is the place!!! - Come check them out! Promise it’s life changing and the program is something I never done before and it works.

Fantastic experience: I enjoyed my experience here with the trainers. My personal trainer was Gavino and I enjoyed working out with him as well as the running program that Kevin had provided for me!! I felt that they did a really good job at targeting all of my goals when I was working out there.

Nickolas Bedynek 11 months ago

Fantastic experience: First personal trainer I've ever had and I love it. Very accommodating to different schedules, I know due to being a bit of a headache for them. They teach you everything you need to know and work with you to achieve your goals whatever they may be. Sadly had to cancel for the moment but I WILL be back for more very soon!

Fantastic experience: Total transformations can happen here. You will be given everything you need. Incredible experience at Underground Fitness. From the moment I started, the team, led by Kevin, has been completely dedicated to helping me achieve my health and fitness goals. When I first came in, my VO2 score was at the lowest level, but Kevin customized a cardio plan specifically for me. Today, I had an amazing workout with Gavino that was completely different from any training I've done before - not just lifting heavy, heavy weights. The workouts are tough, but they're tailored to my specific needs. I can't emphasize how excited I am just by that fact alone. What sets Underground Fitness apart is their holistic approach. They don't just focus on strength training—they give you every piece of the puzzle for a healthier life. They've helped me with everything from tracking calories to creating a customized workout plan - and I've already started losing weight by following their recommendations. This personalized support I'm getting is key, and exactly what was needed. If you're looking for a place that will genuinely invest in your health and well-being, Underground Fitness is hands down A MUST! Trust the process, listen to these guys, be patient, work hard - they've got you!

Fantastic experience: I’ve been trying to get fit on my own for the past few years. I’ve struggled with building muscle and losing weight. I’m on week 6 and already see a difference in my physique. Gavino is a great trainer. He has given me a structured plan catering to my needs. It’s what I’ve been missing with solo training. The nutritionist has taught me how to properly eat to help balance my insulin. I used to need naps in the afternoon but with better eating habits I have more energy.

At the point of joining and setting up my schedule Ron was welcoming and helpful in finding the best trainer for me. In comes Kasey! He has been amazing in teaching me the correct way to preform all my workouts. Always offering words of encouragement and making sure every workout is full of knowledge and comfort. He has been great to work with and have great conversations of my own personal point of interest. Music is always on point! He takes requests people Thank you guys for making my health journey a tough but easy one!

Fantastic experience: Joining Underground Fitness is one of the best decisions I've made...After only a few sessions I can sense a difference. My energy level is improved, & I'm feeling muscles I haven't felt in quite awhile. Losing a few pounds has been an added bonus. My trainer Kasey is attentive & very knowledgeable. He's giving me great instruction in the gym, & really good suggestions on things I can do outside the gym to continue a healthy lifestyle. I'm thankful I found Underground Fitness.

Fantastic experience: I started a month ago with Kasey as my trainer. He knows how to push me to do more but also being very aware of my limitations. Kasey is calm and easy going. He makes working out as pleasant as possible but still hard enough for positive results.

Fantastic experience: Underground Fitness has a healthy, positive environment. I’ve been working with Kasey. He’s been awesome. I really like the structure and accountability. I’ve seen a difference in myself. He listens when you don’t like a specific exercise and has an alternative exercise that still works the muscles that you feel comfortable doing.

Fantastic experience: Kasey is a great trainer, every session I had was positive. He’s focused on helping me achieve my goals and makes every session challenging (& somehow fun) He explains and demonstrates how to execute each exercise, and ensures that my technique is always correct to avoid any injuries. I enjoy working out here and would recommend Kasey & his team to anyone looking to improve their fitness!

Fantastic experience: Been at Underground now for over 6 months and it’s the best decision I made. Kasey the trainer was able to get me to the strongest I have been in my life (32). As a business owner my energy levels and mental clarity have changed along with my strength in really positive ways. It’s nice to be able to work out in a more focused environment than the usual big box gyms. Your goals and weaknesses are focused on truly by Kasey.

Fantastic experience: I have nothing but good things to say about Underground Fitness. I started their 63 day transformation program in Jan of this year, and am still at it. Have lost 30+ pounds, gained muscle mass, reduced body fat percentage, and am eating a very manageable program. I elected to continue with both the fitness and the nutrition consult to ensure the routine and the discipline in the workout and meal management. Kasey is an outstanding trainer who has tailored the workout for my goals and demographic. He is very imaginative and responds to requests for emphasis. Christina is a rock star whose nutrition ideas have really caused me to turn the corner. The perfect combination for an intense program. You have to put in the work, but if you do both pieces, you will see the results. I definitely recommend this program to any demographic.

Fantastic experience: I love this gym! It makes working out not a complete drag! I seriously hate physical exercise and I have been to many gyms: camp transformation, I love kickboxing, & independent gyms. I don't like high cardio or intense workouts where I fall out during the warm up. Not only are the exercises low key, they are effective! I have lost inches, my clothes actually fit me now. Kasey is my trainer and he is so kind and motivating. I am very pleased w my decision to sign up. I am always hesitant because I know I need to lose weight, but I hate throwing away money where I feel that an establishment is not invested in my goals. Kasey is genuinely intentional in his training and guidance. If you hate the common gym scene and are not comfortable w your energy levels, strength or looks, I would encourage you to join this training. I am most certain you will not be disappointed.

Fantastic experience: I’m so glad I chose Underground fitness. Immediately Ron was so welcoming and understanding with where I was coming from. My trainer Kasey is the best. So supportive, knowledgeable, and builds relationships with his clients. He even helped strengthen my bad knees and I went hiking with no pain for the first time in 10+ years! I always feel great (but tired lol) when I’m done with a session, and I have gained so much confidence in my ability to do physically demanding things.

Fantastic experience: Underground Fitness is a great place if you are serious about making progress in your fitness journey. They help you stay accountable, help motivate you to push yourself further. I have had the pleasure of working with Gavino and Tripp. They are excellent trainers. Underground Fitness is great if you just want to increase strength or tone or if like me you have a large weight loss journey ahead. You won't get lost here like we all do in big box gyms. They have flexible hours, I have been working out here since January 2022 and as my life has changed I have been able to work out at 5am, 4pm and even in middle of day. They have great programs for all needs, in fact I just re up'd for the 3rd time. Words don't do Underground Fitness the justice it and the trainers deserve. We have all been to big box gyms and lost our motivation 3 or 6 months down the road, not here. For the 1st time in my life I started in January for a new years resolution and have gone nonstop all year and am continuing in 2024. If you're anything like I was in January 2022, you are out of shape, are apprehensive about going into a gym cause of all the gym bros. Here at UF there is none of that, I have only seen serious like-minded professionals of all ages that are on their own fitness journey. I attribute a lot of my success to the trainers here at Underground Fitness. GAVINO IS AN AMAZING trainer and has a ton of knowledge to share. They have great equipment and teach ypu how to use it, I wish I could give 20 stars!!

Fantastic experience: What a wonderful team of people! I say team, because that’s what you get when you join this program. You work out 3 times a week with a personal trainer. My trainers are having me do specific exercises for my body type and to help build up my back from a lower back injury.Also, I have a nutritionist who helps me with meal planning, and also calls me weekly to see how I’m doing.The encouragement I receive from the staff is so uplifting, and I am closer to reaching my fitness goals. Underground fitness is a very positive environment, and I actually look forward to my workouts.

Darwin Diaz 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: I have had a really good experience here thus far. Kasey Gibbs is my trainer and is very good at what he does. He learns what you like/don’t like, safely pushes you to your limits and beyond, and gives great tips along the way. I knew a lot before starting training with him, but he has already taught me so much more. Everyone is also very friendly which is a plus. Training here has been a great motivator to stay healthy and in shape while learning new and useful exercises/tips to continue building muscle and burning fat. I feel the strongest and healthiest I have in years. It’s a little pricey but you will get from this what you put into it and is ultimately worth the investment in my opinion. Also, they have very helpful payment plans that make it easier to manage! (There is no better motivator than having financial skin in the game and a trainer who will keep you accountable).

Fantastic experience: If you’re on the fence-just go for it. It’ll be 100% worth it. Dave and his team at Underground Fitness will support you all the way. They truly care about their clients’ success. I started working with Tripp this past summer, and I lost 40 lbs over the past 6 months. He helped me understand that I don’t have to kill myself in the gym to see results, and he helped me gain confidence about how much I can lift (the right way). Gavino is also a great trainer. They meet you where you’re at, and build you up. They also put just as much focus on proper nutrition, and your personal goals.This is definitely a better experience than going to an overcrowded big box gym where they’re constantly trying to upsale you.

Lamberto Torres 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: I started training with dave and his team at the beginning of 2020, and they completely changed my entire life around. I had no previous experience in working out, but they provided me with everything I needed. Their team was also always very accessible whenever I had a question in regards to meal prep or workouts. They helped me get to my dream body when I never thought it was possible. Everyone in the training center is also super cool and kind, and are genuinely there to help you achieve tour goals. Dave and his team are great, kind, and passionate people! This is definitely a place I recommend to anyone that is looking to achieve their fitness goals/journeys! 10/10 recommend!

Fantastic experience: Underground Fitness hands down! Is the best training facility to train at. If you are looking for a quality trainer who knows what they are doing and motivates you through every workout, stop looking and join Underground Fitness. I have been coming to Underground for the last 10 months and have had the best results I have ever had in the last 2 years of working out. I came in with a goal and when I was introduced to Dave, not only did he tell me what I needed to do he put together a plan for me and made sure I executed the plan. 10 months later I have seen results I have never seen before. I will continue to train with the best trainers in the Valley!

Reginald Epps 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: I’ve always considered myself a fairly healthy guy. I played sports all my life and have always been an active person. In my younger years, I depended on my youth and metabolism to keep me in shape. I ate how I wanted and never really tipped the scale too bad, but in December 2010, I found myself married to my high school sweetheart, and 230 lbs and I’m only 5’6”. That was literally the heaviest I had been in my life at the time. I walked into a gym in Farmington, Missouri and ran into a very energetic guy. I spoke with him about training and getting in shape. His name of course was Dave Bess. I had the luxury of being his first client EVER…lol. Needless to say the results were amazing. I went from 230 lbs to 193 lbs in matter of 16 weeks. No fancy diets, just hard work and dedication. So, fast forward 11 years, and wife and 2 kids later, I sat at 228 lbs and not knowing how to get out of it. As an ex athlete, working out is easy for me. But whenever I started, everything else in my life became unbalanced, which led me back to doing what was easiest, just making it through the days. I wasn’t built bad but I just needed guidance. How do you balance it all? How can you balance being a Christian man, husband, father, career, and self care all at once. As a father I wanted to show my wife and kids a good example of a man who could have it together spiritually, mentally, and physically. I also suffered with thoughts that’s my health was in jeopardy any way. My father, and both of his brothers all died at early ages from prostate cancer. My grandfather who passed less than a week ago also had prostate cancer. So obviously you get a feeling that your future is doomed. I was in a frustrated dark place when it came to the wellness of my family and myself. Eight weeks ago I sat on the couch scrolling facebook and I saw a live video from Dave and he asked “What trips you up when starting a plan?” I commented on the post, but I didn’t expect it to go any further. Out of the blue I received a FB message from Dave asking if I wanted to get together on a zoom a chat. I agreed. We discussed not just weight loss but we discussed life and all the important pieces of that make it worth living. He laid out a plan. It was not just about working out but, it included time for spiritual walk, time with my wife and kids as well. It was a wellness plan, not just a workout plan. Before starting the transformation plan I had no discipline at all. I didn’t realize the importance of planning your health walk the same way you plan on your job. It helped me to get all of the pieces to the puzzle and finally put them together. In just 8 short weeks I’ve come down from 226 lbs to 202 lbs, and I even have my family on board with me. I have seen changes in I my physique that I haven’t seen in a long time. The meal plan is not strict but it does involve making better choices as you should in life. Dave and I speak on a weekly basis and the topic of discussion is “How do you feel?” Its not just about body gains and workouts. I would definitely recommend the 63 day transformation to anybody that needs the total package of achieving results and learning how to do it properly. I plan to eat and live this way the rest of my life. At this point in my journey I feel as if all the pieces of me are coming together. My family and I are opening other areas of interest with each other. Health and wellness is becoming a natural part of our lives. Thanks to Dave Bess for a second time!!!

Carly Renckly 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: TLDR; signing up for the 9-week transformation was hands down one of the best decisions I've made for myself in quite a while. They give you the tools to bet on yourself, and win. I had attempted to lose the 25-30lbs id put on for ~2-2.5 years with zero traction. I would start enthusiastically, and when I didn't see ANY results, I'd either give up completely or take my foot off the gas considerably. Then wash. rinse. repeat. I was completely hopeless and frustrated with my self and my life. Enter underground fitness. I left my initial consultation with Dave feeling almost giddy (and. don't use that phrase lightly). Everything he said just clicked - for the 1st time in a long time, it felt not only possible but likely that I would be able lose the weight. And 9+ weeks in that feeling hasn't gone away. Thanks to Dave and my Trainer Tripp (honestly one of the most knowledgeable trainers i've ever met), and despite my newly discovered hypothyroidism, I've lost 3 inches off my waist, I have the confidence to take pictures with my family/niece and even been able to bring a few items of clothing out of retirement! And all this was possible without being forced to eat salads or protein shakes all day. Dave taught me how to be accountable for myself and my food. If I want dessert, and make sure I have it budgeted into my daily calories and I eat that dessert. He genuinely cares about his clients and his only goal is for your to reach your goals, and in the process teach you how to eat for the rest of your life. Honestly, could have easily gotten double the money out of me for the following 9 weeks program but because I was doing well with my nutrition, he moved me to a less hands-on 9-week program. And frankly, Just knowing that I know how to lose the weight and keep it off and that I won't have to deal with this issue again is pretty mind-boggling.

Fantastic experience: I am so glad my chiropractor recommended UF and trainer Jon D to me about a year ago, saying I needed core strength to keep from continually throwing out my lower back, which I had been dealing with for decades. I am especially thankful to Jon, who has been the perfect trainer for me, always friendly, motivating with kindness and respect, and never overbearing. Through Jon’s expert guidance and personalized plans, I was able to make surprisingly quick progress toward my objectives of eliminating the lower back issues plus gaining overall strength, endurance and definition. In my early 60’s, I am so happy to be in the best shape of my life, and I plan to continue with Jon at UF indefinitely!

Fantastic experience: Underground Fitness is a great gym! I signed up for the 9 week program and it was exactly what I needed. They focus not only on getting physically fit but working on the mind and spirit as well. The owner Dave set me up with his custom system that helped to hold me accountable to goals that I set for myself. He also set me up on a meal plan that is simple and has been a game changer for me. The trainer CJ is extremely knowledgeable in all facets of strength training whether you are looking to drop 100 pounds or bulk up and put on muscle mass. Overall I would highly suggest checking this place out. You will not be disappointed!

Jonah 5 years ago

Fantastic experience: This place is amazing! I spent many years at the big box gyms hitting the same ten machines and not showing much progress. Owner Dave and trainer CJ are amazing and genuine people. They have helped tremendously showcasing their immense knowledge and passion for moving weights. I have also gained a working day to day knowledge about choosing the right foods and setting goals to keep those pounds off. Try Underground out and prove me wrong.

Jessi Paige 5 years ago

Fantastic experience: I was stuck in such a rough patch in my life, I’d hardly eat more than a meal a day, or would mostly consume junk food, and would rarely work out. After getting out of a toxic relationship, I found underground fitness after looking through several gyms, and this one seemed the most genuine to me, which IT SURE WAS. One of the first things Dave told me during our first walk in meeting was “We don’t just want to transform you for 9 weeks, we want to help and provide you with knowledge that will benefit you for the rest of your life.” Everyone at the gym is so friendly, I felt absolutely no judgement from anyone there. Both Dave and Liz showed me so much kindness, and have helped me sooo so much. I highly recommend this place to anyone who’s looking for a lifestyle change with a happy, loving environment!

Fantastic experience: I love underground!! Trisha has been training me and working with me for the past 5 weeks and I’ve seen such great progress!! She’s an excellent trainer and knows what she’s doing. She always takes the time to write down my workouts so I can easily repeat them. I would definitely recommend her or any of the underground crew to anyone who is looking for a personal trainer.

Fantastic experience: Everybody here was so kind and down to earth- I cant stand the typical atmosphere of most gyms with meatheads. When I walk in, I feel no judgement. Jon was super kind and professional and was willing to sit with me for a while and discuss my goals and how to reach them, and how we would reach them together. Very good experience!

Fantastic experience: I can't say enough great things about UF and the trainers (Trisha is the best :-)), I am here to write another review. Thanks to her unrelenting focus on clients health and well being, I have successfully completed another Rim to Rim (North Rim to South Rim) Hike at Grand Canyon. I couldn't even walk up my stairs a couple of years ago and I have already finished 2 hikes at Grand Canyon and conquered Humphrey's Peak - Thanks to all those brutal but effective leg days. Thank you Trisha and everyone at UF. You guys change lives :-).

Fantastic experience: Underground Fitness and my coach, Jake, especially have been a wonderful source for reaching my fitness goals this Summer. Even 700 miles away in the state of Utah, Jake was present with me over the phone and text during the entire program! Not only was I constantly encouraged, but I was challenged in a way that made me want to excel toward my fitness goal. Jake's uplifting attitude and constant vigor to encourage and motivate me was greatly appreciated. I would highly recommend Jake, and Underground Fitness if you're finally wanting to meet the goals you've always wanted. Now it's time for my wedding, and I'm sure i'll be back post-honeymoon ;)

Fantastic experience: I’ve been working out at Underground Fitness in Glendale for about 1.5 years now, on and off. The first day I walked in Trisha was helping me and made me feel right at home as if I belonged there. She scheduled me with a trainer who would best fit my goal for building muscle. With my busy schedule I’m able to train at least two times a week, and I’m very grateful for all the trainers there. They are very competent and experienced in their own way which makes it the perfect gym. No matter what your needs are, you’ll be taken care of and you will reach your goals if you stay consistent, believe me. I recently went out of state for 3 months and I’ll tell you that it was not the same to workout at another gym. Something was missing and it was the trainers at UF. Now that I’m back it’s really amazing and the trainers made me feel like family. I would definitely recommend UF to everyone that wants to reach their fitness goals and wants to feel like they belong.

Fantastic experience: This place is amazing. I have a busy work schedule and was able to get into some group sessions. I have been going for a month now and let me say I am not one to work out alone. Having Tisha help push me has made me look at my overall health, diet and goals to get to. This is a great place if you are like me and want that extra drive to get healthy. I always leave feeling the workout and always wanting to come back.

Fantastic experience: Underground Fitness is great! It's the perfect spot for those who don't like going to gyms, or those who don't know what to do at the gym. Each one of the trainers has their own style of training and each style works in it's own way, no matter who you are or what you're looking to work on. They help you track what you eat so that you are able to take full advantage of the membership. The trainers are very personable, making everyone they work out with feel like they are a friend and belong at the facility. Dave is great at focusing on specific muscles during a routine and helping build muscle. Trisha is the best at working on your mobility, not using a lot of weight but focusing on movements and flexibility.

P K2 6 years ago

Fantastic experience: I have been with UF from the past 1.5 years and I can't say enough good things about these guys.The whole vibe at UF is extremely encouraging and positive - thanks to all the trainers - Trisha, Jake, Dave, Jon (and the new guy) who make each session very much focussed on individual needs and at the same time, they are absolute fun -- intense but fun :-) Thanks to Trisha, I lost all those extra pounds I put on (working from home is really dangerous for the waistline :)) but most importantly, I gained strength, a bit of muscle (yayyy) and an understanding of how a correct posture can help enhancing the exercise routine. Did I say that Trisha is a stickler for correct posture :-D? The best part - I gained enough confidence to venture onto a single day 'Rim-River-Rim' hike at Grand Canyon - not recommended by NPS and I wouldn't recommend unless you are extremely prepared well enough. I finished the whole hike in 14 hours and lived to tell the tale :) Without all those leg days , which I seriously dread even today, I couldn't have ventured onto this adventure. For a guy who had tough time climbing the stairs at my home, this is indeed extra special. Thank you Trisha for helping me in this journey. You are a rock star!! Give these guys a try. They will really change your life :-) **Pic on the left is from Dec, 2017 and the pic on the right is March, 2019 from Grand Canyon ============================== If I can give 100 stars to this amazing place and trainers, I would without any hesitation :-) I probably topped the list in procrastinating everytime the thought of joining a gym crossed my mind. I am that person who spent 30 minutes in front of UF building deciding whether to step in or just get the hell out. I guess all the “fitness” planets aligned right when I made the right decision , which is probably the best one so far with regards to leading a healthy life style. I started with 206 lbs in the month of November 2017 and could barely stay for 30 minutes during the first couple of sessions. As of today (Feb 27th, 2018) , I am at 182 lbs (bye bye 24 lbs) and I feel much stronger and healthier, thanks to my trainer Trisha. I cut down close to 3 inches of my waistline and shifted from wearing ‘Large’ shirts to ‘Medium’ size. Trisha has exceptional skill and understanding of different training techniques that suited exactly what I needed (loose weight + get strong :-)) and she genuinely cares about your overall well being. When I am at session, she constantly checks whether my form was good and continues to push me beyond what I thought I can do. She also ensures that I am eating enough to meet my calorie goals. She pushed me to achieve my target and I can’t wait to see what she has in store for me. And the other trainers in the facility are super nice too. I see both Dave and Jon almost everytime and they are awesome guys , who not only encourages the people they are working with but the rest of the teams training there. This is a place where you find people from different walks of life with different backgrounds but all working towards the same goal with each and every person from UF encouraging and assisting them in that journey. I am super glad that I found UF as I could never achieve what I did in a span of 3 months. If you are in the process of finding out the best place to get healthy and get in shape, give UF a try. You won’t be disappointed.

Fantastic experience: Underground fitness has an incredible team of trainers who are there to help you on your fitness journey. For me, my goal was to be able to walk up a flight of stairs and not run out of breath. I have come a long way since then with the help of my amazing trainer Trisha. She has not only helped me get into shape but has assisted me in building nutritious meals that fit my lack of cooking abilities and busy schedule.

Cindy 6 years ago

Fantastic experience: I can’t say enough good things about Trisha! She is patient and encouraging, while not letting you take it easy. The workouts are designed specifically for me and my personal goals and are done in a comfortable environment that isn’t intimidating but keeps me motivated to do my best at each workout. Thanks Trisha and Underground fitness for creating a space that is enjoyable for everyone, regardless of where they are at in their wellness journeys!

Fantastic experience: What a great group of people and trainers! I started working out with Jon almost 18 months ago. I hadn’t actively worked out for nearly 15 years and didn’t think it was possible with my crazy schedule, but these guys make it work for me! Shout out to big Dave, Trisha and Jake too, they are always friendly, helpful and I look forward to every workout!

Adrian Brown 6 years ago

Fantastic experience: I have been training at Underground Fitness for 2 years now, I train with Jon and it has been a great experience. Jon has a very unique motivational style that took some time getting used to at first, but when I did, I hit my stride and never looked back. I have made a tremendous amount of progress under his stewardship, he is extremely knowledgeable and always goes the extra mile. There is a big focus from the team on aligning the training with nutrition and all trainers are very knowledge in this area. The overall Underground team is great to; very friendly, motivating, not pretentious in anyway, great place to workout. Appreciate everything the team there have done to improve my fitness.

Howard Choi 7 years ago

Fantastic experience: Can't say enough about the team here at this Underground Fitness! Over the past year, I have gotten to know all of the trainers personally. Dave, Jake, John, & Trish are all extremely knowledgeable and great to work with. I struggled for years with chronic back pain and needed to get into shape for a Spartan Race. Dave was able to get my strength and conditioning on point for the race all while strengthening my back and core. I can happily say that after all these years of chronic back pain, I am almost pain free! You can't go wrong with the team here. They all really care about you as a person and for that hour that you train, they make you feel like the most important person in the world. :)

sujatha mallapragada 7 years ago

Fantastic experience: I've been going to Underground Fitness for about 8 months now and I'm never looking back! I was a little skeptical at first because I had never done personal training. My brother had been training with Trisha for quite some time and was constantly trying to get me to tag along. I decided to go for the first session with Trisha and I've been going ever since then! Trisha is really knowledgeable about personal training and customizes her routines per person. But more importantly, she really pushes you to go one step further each time. I've lost 20 pounds so far with the nutrition plan and the workouts and I don't plan on stopping now! Not just Trisha, but every other trainer as well really cares about personal training and they all want you to become the best version of yourself. It's truly a supportive and fun place to exercise! Thank you Underground Fitness!

Jeremy Georges 7 years ago

Fantastic experience: No words can really describe this place! It's not just another gym, not just another personal training studio. Here you will get results, results that you probably didn't know even existed! I train with Dave and Jake. They are both phenomenal and push you to strive to your ultimate goal! My ultimate goal was to get my life back and lose weight while doing it. So far 43 days in I have lost 25 lbs. You yourself have to want it ! Following the diet is top key to get what you want ! I've gained muscle and lost fat . I started in a size 42 waist and for the first time yesterday I actually fit comfortably in a 38. That's 2 sizes and 25lbs in 42 days. Going to the gym for an hour three times a week. This place and the trainers are priceless to me!! They go out of their way to help you reach your goals ! STRIVE NOW!!! MAKE THE CALL, I DID AND I'M SEEING RESULTS WITHIN THE FIRST MONTH! I couldn't thank these trainers enough.

R Henderson 7 years ago

Fantastic experience: Let me start by saying I’ve been lifting for the past 20+ years. I’ve had my up and downs like everyone else. Some good consistent years and others sporadically. The past few years have been plagued with injury and poor eating habits. I finally broke down and said enough. I’ve had a few visits next door at Impact Physical Therapy (awesome place by the way) and saw people working out here and always thought it was a good place to train at. I met the owner Dave and scheduled the first workout with him, which is free by the way, and we went over nutrition and a full body workout assessment. We determined that with my schedule, it’d be best to set me up with Jake Page. I’ve been with Jake about three months now and I’m loving everyday I get to workout with him. He is knowledgeable and cares deeply for his clients wants and needs. I have been more sore (the good muscle sore) the past three months than I have ever been lifting on my own. Also, not only Jake, but everyone there at Underground is knowledgeable and happy to help the people there. You generally don’t find a business where the employees are happy and excited to be at work but they are here!

Fantastic experience: I absolutely love training at Underground Fitness. The environment here is so clean and welcoming, and the trainers are all very friendly. I train with Trisha, and I just have to say that she is the best!! She is so knowledgable, and helps me to perfect my form and is always challenging my body and mind with awesome workout routines. She will push your limits to help you reach your potential and goals! Can't say enough about the improvements I see physically and mentally. Thank you so much Trisha and Underground Fitness!! Highly recommend!

Skull Daddy 7 years ago

Fantastic experience: I have been working out at Underground for about 6 months now. I had lifted most of my life on my own. I never saw a trainer at my gyms that I felt could train me.. they all looked ridiculous and normally had their clients on treadmills as they checked their cell phones... It had been about 3 years since I worked out seriously, and I was really in bad shape. Apprehensively, I signed up for one on one training with John. This guy was really good... he asked about my diet and helped me put a plan together. Gave me a free app and held me accountable for what I put in my mouth.. He didn't just forget about it.. he wanted answers.. After a month of one on one I went over to group classes. Group was with Dave.. Dave is Underground Fitness' Rock Star. This guy is AMAZING. He tweaked my diet further and really tied the mind/muscle connection together for me. The gains that I have had are just amazing. Being 52, I did not think this was possible. He has really motivated me to get back into this and stick to my diet. I have lost over 35 pounds and countless inches since I have started. Finally, I have worked with Trisha on Saturday mornings. We have concentrated on Core exercises... She gets it... she listens to what you are trying to achieve and gets you there. She is on Dave and Johns level... maybe even better. All of the trainers listen to what you are saying. They do not want you in pain or puking. They want you to succeed. I highly recommend taking this road if you are looking to change your appearance, but more importantly to change how you feel and add YEARS to your life.. Your not too old or too out of shape for this group to help. Now get motivated and get to Underground!!!!

Stefanie Fasciocco 7 years ago

Fantastic experience: I've been working with Kerry with online training for a little over 6 months. Can't tell you how incredibly relieved and happy I am to have her support and knowledge. Went from thinking I knew a lot about diet and exercise to actually learning to fit proper diet and weight training into my lifestyle. I still have a long ways to go but I'm excited to have Underground Fitness along with me on this transformation/fitness journey. My mental state, lifestyle and body is going through a complete overhaul and the only thing I regret is not starting earlier. It's been worth every penny having Kerry as my emotional support and biggest cheerleader. Can't wait to see what these next 6 months and beyond have in store for us.

Fantastic experience: 5+++++++ stars. Awesome Atmosphere. Great personal trainers. The staff is very knowledgeable and Friendly. My personal trainer Jon Dudzinski is great!!! Workouts are very challenging and fun. I would highly recommend Underground Fitness for anyone trying to reach their goals and quickly see results.

Tina Flores 7 years ago

Fantastic experience: I have worked with Trainer Dave Bess for 6 years. He has taught me how to work out smart and efficiently with effective results! His thought process on your diet is more about leading a lifestyle and allowing you to still enjoy the foods you like, while not over consuming. His approach in training is based off each individuals needs and wants and targets those specific areas. Dave has lead me to be a successful Boston Marathon Runner and 3x Ironman. As a Triathlete, I have not gone without injury and Dave knows how to work around those areas without compensating the rest of body and still concentrating on core strength and agility. Trisha Thurston has now joined Underground Fitness. She has been an incredible asset and has helped me learn how to Cross-Train to improve my fitness level, endurance and performance. This Dynamo Team is now leading me towards another Ironman Event and I could not be more enthusiastic about referring such wonderful caring people as Dave and Trisha and everyone at Underground Fitness.

Lana Seegan 7 years ago

Doyle Scott 7 years ago

Fantastic experience: As somebody who had never lifted before, I needed some place with an experienced staff that could work with me and guild me through a lifting and nutrition program. Over the years I’ve worked both with Dave and Jake who both really understand the science of lifting and eating that’s needed to fully develop muscle. Since starting I’ve added more than 25 pounds of muscle and completely changed my physique. Also since starting I’ve entered two bodybuilding competitions, winning one! Thanks guys for all the help and guidance. I highly recommend them. Doyle

Fantastic experience: It has been 2yrs since I have joined Underground and its been a blessing. I am one of the lucky ones in the gym. I can honestly say that I have had the opportunity of working with all the trainers in the gym, even the new kid Jake or Jake the Fake as he is known. The nicknames come from Big Dave, don't ask just go with it and have fun. I have had Jake the Fake train me now for a couple months ever since he came to Underground. I see Jake once a week at least and I still see my main man Big Dave. From my first workout with Jake he pushed me hard and he continues to push me to my limits every session. I'll be doing a set with Jake and I can see and hear Big Dave from across the room in amazement and dropping the S bomb a time or two. Jake is very good at what he does and explaining things and showing you. Especially with body sculpting moves. As a Flight Attendant with a crazy schedule, half the time I don't know if I am coming or going. They are so great working with my crazy schedule Not only do they put me through a workout but they have put me on a diet. Teaching me how not only to eat right but how to meal prep each week. Learning how to meal prep has saved me money in the long run. I am still able to add the foods I enjoy like a Pop tart from time to time. All trainers at Underground are the best of the best and they are unique in their own ways. If you ask me who is the best I will always say Big Dave, he is my main trainer and I also consider one of my best friends. If you ask me who is second best well I couldn't tell you since they all are great.

Colette Rovey 7 years ago

Fantastic experience: I am a new member to Underground Fitness, and I must say I have never been so excited for my fitness and nutrition journey! I am not new to fitness, I have worked out my whole life and played college volleyball, but my body has stayed the same for as long as I can remember. I wanted a gym that would challenge me and push me to new limits. I went in for a consultation with Dave, and when I left I knew this was the place for me! Dave took the time to truly explain everything and in a way I would understand. Sometimes gyms and trainers can be intimating, but not underground fitness. When you go in , you will feel inspired and encouraged to push yourself In ways you didn’t know were possible. The best part, is the focus on nutrition. Not only are you getting a killer work out, but you’re learning how to eat and what is best for YOUR body! I could go on and on, but I will just say that I can already tell that underground fitness is going to change my life! Dave and his team are AWESOME!!

Fantastic experience: Jon Dudzinski has been my Trainer for 4 months. I have found him to be knowledgeable, patient, encouraging, professional, friendly, creative and possess' s a nice personality. As my Trainer he has been able to bring variety into my workouts which keeps my interest and commitment at a high level. I am enjoying the benefits I have gotten from working with Jon. I feel confident to recmmend him to someone else.

Wendy 7 years ago

Fantastic experience: I’ve been working out at Underground Fitness for about 5 months now and I LOVE it! All of the trainers are fantastic and incredibly friendly. I only have done sessions with Trisha - who is great and I would recommend to anyone - and yet all the other trainers know my name and greet me. It makes it feel more like working out with friends and it takes away the intimidation I’ve always felt towards private training. That said, they don’t go easy on you with the workout. They push you to be the best you can be while still taking in your fitness levels and safety into consideration. I definitely recommend Underground Fitness!

Connie McDonald 7 years ago

Fantastic experience: When I joined Underground Fitness 4 months ago I had no idea I could feel this good. I had trouble with balance, not anymore. I had trouble with core strength, not anymore. I had low self esteem, not anymore. My personal trainer, Trisha, keeps me motivated and challenged, even when I'm not at the gym. I've dropped two sizes and feel great! Thanks to Trisha keeping me in check, my goals are now being achieved.

S 7 years ago

Fantastic experience: Dave has always been positive and encouraging. He is an extremely knowledgeable personal trainer. I will continue to go to Underground Fitness, and recommend you do to. (I have also worked with Trisha and she is awesome too! This place rocks). I lost my mom (my only parent for 22 years) to a sudden stoke at 44 years old. I was her only child and I just graduated from college. I was completely lost in life and extremely depressed for the last 2.5 years and as a result of bad habits and lack of guidance, I gained a tremendous amount of weight (40lbs). I was very afraid to begin personal training because I can get “psyched out” easily if someone pushes me too hard. I also have an autoimmune disorder that flares up if I feel too much stress. Thus there was a lot of fear joining a gym. BUT I tried out Underground Fitness and took a leap of faith with Dave. It has been 8 weeks and I have lost 15 lbs, 2.25 inches in my belly and I feel physically and mentally stronger than ever.

William Mueller 7 years ago

Fantastic experience: This place is great! I came in about a month ago looking to drop some lbs and get back into shape. In the first month I've gone from 239lbs to 225lbs. Jon set me up with a great plan to meet my goals. The workouts are challenging but fun, and there is a nice variety to the exercises. I tend to get bored if I'm doing the same workouts over and over, I've been here a month and haven't been bored yet! I can't say enough great things about Jon and the rest of the staff there!!

Scott Robinson 8 years ago

Fantastic experience: My body transformation with Dave Bess (my trainer) at Underground Fitness Arrowhead is like the infomercial’s you see on TV for P90X. I’m a 52 year old guy with a 40 hour a week desk job. My goal, before meeting Dave, was to avoid getting fat like most of my coworkers. I was doing cardio and some light weights 4 to 5 days a week just to maintain my weight and I was busting my butt. A friend of mine suggested meeting with Dave (for a free consultation) after working out with him for a few months. I could see the great results my friend was getting so I decided to give Dave a chance to see what he could do for me. I’m 6 feet 2 inches tall and weigh 230 pounds. I have been with Dave for 4 months now and I have packed on about 10 pounds of muscle and lost about 10 pounds of fat. My weight has stayed the same but I lost 2 inches on my waist. My old shirts are all very tight around my chest and arms. My arm (bicep/measurement) is 17.5 inches when rested for a few days (18+ when pumped from a workout). I work out with Dave 3 hours a week for 1 full hour each workout. Dave monitors my nutrition and has set me up with realistic nutrition targets (Macros: calories, carbs, protein and fat). I log everything I eat in an interactive app (on my phone). Dave has 24/7 remote access to my information and keeps me on target. The bottom line is I look and feel fantastic. I get complemented on my physique every day by people I know and sometimes even strangers. They ask me how I got in such great shape and I tell them about Dave. At 52 I’m in the best shape of my life thanks to Dave Bess and Underground Fitness. I would never have been able to achieve these results fumbling around in a gym on my own. I look forward to seeing how the next 4 months with Dave will impact my body.

jeannie duschik 8 years ago

Fantastic experience: I have been going to Underground Fitness for almost 2 months. This is the BEST gym I have ever been to by far. I lost 20 pounds in the first month alone with the help of my trainer Jon! Jon has always been very encouraging and has personalized my nutrition to help me reach my goals. I have worked with both Jon and Jake, and both have taken the time to listen to my needs. The workouts are challenging and motivating. Thanks so much Underground Fitness!

David Derartinian 8 years ago

Fantastic experience: Underground has helped change my life! Before I started with my awesome trainer Dave at the studio early this year, I was a self-conscious, insecure guy. I would try to work out on my own and attempt one-off diets with no success. Hope of achieving my goals was slipping away. When I walked into the studio for the first time, I was warmly greeted and welcomed by the man who I would soon call my very own personal trainer, Dave Bess. Being a nursing student with a lot of schoolwork on my plate, Dave understood that I have a very busy schedule and was willing to meet my individualized needs. In the past 10 months that I have been working with Dave, there has not been a single week where he has not been able to accommodate to my schedule. His level of professionalism is exceptional and he incorporates fun and learning into each workout, teaching me about different moves, muscles, and nutrition as we go along. The expert knowledge, advice, and accountability that Dave has to offer has helped transform that self-conscious boy into a more confident, stronger man. I would 100% refer anyone to Dave and the rest of the Underground team!

Kelly Ballard 8 years ago

Fantastic experience: I highly recommend Underground Fitness for anyone who is wanting to get in shape after having a baby! After having my second child, I lost all of my pregnancy weight on my own. However, my shape was dramatically different, and I was not filling out my clothes the way I liked. Hiring Dave Bess was the best decision I ever made! Dave set me up on a nutrition plan that allows me to eat the foods I like and still continue to lower my body fat. Using my individual nutrition plan and weight training plans, my body is transforming, and I’m feeling so much more confident.

Fantastic experience: Can't say enough great things about this place. I worked with Jake in his evening group classes and looked forward to each and every session. He's so great with his clients that it was like having one on one training. I saw results quickly and immediately started feeling better mentally. I couldn't be happier with my experience here.

Chadwick Fowler 8 years ago

Fantastic experience: I cannot say enough good things about the team at Underground Fitness! I have had the good fortune of working with several of them over the last year and a half. I've done one on one training several times a week, and love their group sessions as well! I recommend Alpha Hour! Dave has been great at helping me get my diet sorted out and directing me on a solid workout routine! Alec took the time to identify my specific wants and needs and built a regiment that has helped me achieve them! And when I injured my shoulder, Trisha adjusted my workouts to rehabilitate my shoulder while still working towards my overall goals. And Saturday's with Jake are great! He's a machine! Give this place a shot, you'll thank me for it!

Jason Goetz 8 years ago

Fantastic experience: I destroyed my foot in early April so about a month ago I decided to seek a personal trainer to help with the rehabilitation--my goal is to get back onto a basketball court sooner rather than later. I looked at a few places in the area, but when I walked into Underground Fitness I knew I was in the right place--the vibe was right and the music was right, so I violated my own personal boycott on all businesses on Yam properties and signed up. I was hooked up with the rehab specialist, Trisha Thurston. Trisha is the real deal. This was perfect; some other people who work out here have nicknamed her "the assassin" and I had explicitly asked for a "drill sergeant" because when I was in high school I had worked out with a world-champion bodybuilder who, as I had said, "had an assassin's mentality" towards workouts. There's no use going for training if all you want is for the trainer to tell you that a light workout is just great. At the same time right now I have to be a little more careful, and Trisha gets that--which some other drill sergeants might not. Trisha has worked to strengthen the muscles around my foot, also around the other ankle (in which I tore a tendon some time ago), and to help me regain my balance on each foot. She's really focused on my calves, glutes, hamstrings and hip flexors, and I feel better and stronger after each workout. I highly recommend both Underground Fitness and Trisha individually to all those who, like me, are in need of some help building back their strength after a major injury.

P Mack 8 years ago

Fantastic experience: I have been working with Dave for the past 2 years. I'm 68 years old and in the best shape I've been in since I was in my 30's. I have improved my strength and balance tremendously. By using flexible dieting and counting my macros under Dave's guidance, I have achieved the look I desired without starving or depriving myself.

Last November my oldest daughter said she was getting married and I decided that all the excuses I'd been making had to stop!! I called Underground Fitness, Glendale, AZ...made an appointment to go in for my free consultation and workout session and the rest is history. They put me on a comprehensive - (do-able diet) and set me up on an intense exercise program with Alec Allan. 3 months later my posture was amazing, I'd lost 20 pounds, and my muscles were becoming more defined. I've worked with trainers in the past but never gotten the results I wanted this quickly. You'll want to call Underground Fitness today and in 4 months you'll be the one writing the review. Patty S.

Fantastic experience: I have never worked out before and after 7 months postpartum, I decided to get back into shape. Being in the gym is completely out of my element. Seeing those machines and weights are pretty much intimidating for me. So I was looking for a more intimate set up and a more personal approach. So I gave underground fitness a try. I must admit I was scared with my first consultation with Alec. On the contrary he was very welcoming, I explained to him my current state. Alec was very detailed with all his explanations as to how I can achieve my fitness goals. Alec has huge enthusiasm, he is really good with what he does and makes working out more enjoyable. Two months after, I am very pleased with how much weight I have lost and how my mind has changed just by embracing this new lifestyle. What an immense pleasure to have Alec as my trainer. I have been greatly enriched by his input, expertise and knowledge. If you are looking for an amazing place to work out, excellent trainers and willing to put in the work- give underground fitness a go. You will not regret it.

Fantastic experience: I have been training at Underground Fitness for 3 years. Before starting at the studio, I was very overwhelmed and nervous because I had never worked out before. From the first day I walked into the studio, I felt so welcomed and felt like a priority. Dave is in charge of my nutrition. His knowledge and approach to flexible dieting has created a lifestyle that I will continue to follow. I am able to eat and incorporate foods I love (Lucky Charms) while seeing great results! I currently train with Jake and Alec and could not be happier. They are flexible with my busy schedule and give me a great workout every time. They taught me patience and to trust the process. I never thought I'd be able to get such good results without extreme dieting.

Fantastic experience: My new physician suggested weight training as I had lost about 20% of my body mass due to a major gastrointestinal surgery. Underground fitness was a cross the drive so I walked in and met Alec Allen, liked the guy and decided to give it a try. Started in January, had knee replacement surgery in Feb. Then the real work began. I have lost 5% body fat, gain about 6.5% muscle mass. Alec, looks out for my knees, my low back (3 vertebrae fused) and has helped me transform my body to a much younger version. At 68 years young, the transformation is much more than I expected. Alec doesn't push, but challenges me to push myself, has quite a humor, and is really fun to work with. Originally I was 3 days a week with golf 4 days a week. But decided I had the energy, the drive and now work with Alec 5 days a week. ANYONE LOOKING TO GET INTO SHAPE, LOOKING TO TRANSFORM THEIR BODY SHAPE AND DIET, SHOULD SEE ALEC OR DAVE AT UNDER GROUND FITNESS. IT'S NOT ALL FUN BUT WORTH THE EFFORT WITH THESE FOLKS.

Fantastic experience: This place is a life changer. Whether you are looking to bulk up, lean out, or anything in between, underground fitness is the place for you. All I can say is: If you do what they tell you, YOU WILL GET FIT. I've tried working out on my own for years before I came here, but I never saw substantial results- especially in muscle gains. The thing is, I was never confident that what I was doing was correct. I had the drive to go to the gym and "eat clean", but, like a LOT of people, I didn't really know what I was doing (whether or not I had proper form, was doing the right exercises, was eating the right foods at the right times, etc. I watched ALL kinds of youtube videos, read all kinds of articles, and there is just SO much conflicting information out there. Just pick a health/fitness related topic and put it into google, and you'll see what I'm talking about. There's so many examples of this I won't even bother listing them. Anyways, I would get very discouraged because, on top of not seeing results, I didn't know what I was doing wrong. It was frustrating. Thankfully, I found underground fitness, and it has been life changing. I'm finally seeing results and my strength has grown exponentially. Over the past year that I've been coming here, I've had the opportunity to work with or talk to pretty much all the trainers here (shout out to Jake the Snake, Big Dave, John, Alec, and the rest!) and I can honestly say that ALL of them KNOW. THEIR. STUFF. It's a BS free gym. They can tell you EXACTLY what you need or don't need to do to get in the best shape of your life. They make it simple for you. All you need to do is put in the effort. They are very professional yet personable/down to earth at the same time. On top of that, they have always been able to accomodate me according to my crazy schedule and were willing to work with me financially. Great environment too! I've met alot of great and inspiring people here (trainers as well as other trainees) and everyone is so supportive. Give Underground fitness at Arrowhead a try. I'm SURE you won't be dissappointed:)

Fantastic experience: After my first session, I knew this would be a great place to help me reach my goals. Good atmosphere. The trainers are very friendly, experienced, and they really care about their clients. Dave is great guy, and he's been a big help getting me on the right path! I would definitely recommend this place!

David B 8 years ago

Fantastic experience: I hired Dave Bess and Underground Fitness in February of 2016 and have experienced remarkable changes in my lifestyle and lost 55lbs in this time frame. Dave worked with me developing a training routine that worked for me and also pointed me in the direction of making healthy food choices that have now become part of my lifestyle. I can honestly say that I feel better at 58 years old than I ever thought possible. If you are looking for a personal trainer I highly recommend Dave. When a person hires him you not only get an excellent trainer but you also get a lifestyle coach and a great friend!

Fantastic experience: I love working out with the guys at Underground Fitness! They always make me smile when I come in :) and I look better when I leave!

Fantastic experience: I have been a member and client of UF for over 5 years. This group of trainers are not only very professional, but they truly get to know you and your body so they can create a fitness plan to meets YOUR needs. When I first started with Dave Bess, I had a very bad lower back. I could barely tie my shoes without sitting down. It took about a year, but slowly Dave helped me strengthen my lower back and core to a point that I am now able to do heavy squats, deadlifts, bent over rows and tie my shoes with any problems. Dave help changed the quality of my life 1000%. If you are serious about your fitness and want to have fun, then UF is the place for you!
