I took the 6am Metabolic class with Ben and it was such a great experience. 100% love to Activ8! They have such a supportive community that immediately embraced me and supported me cheering me on and encouraging me! Ben is a fantastic trainer that is also supportive, encouraging and shows tough love! I was told several times by members if I can do this class, I can do anything. So I can do anything! 10 stars!

The trainers are so kind and really know how to encourage the athletes positively. They helped me get ready for my fall season of college field hockey and I will definitely be coming back for my breaks. I feel a lot more prepared for college just from a couple of weeks of working with them. Definitely recommend for personal training.

The experience at Activ8 is by far one of the best. From the moment you walk in the door, until the moment you leave, you feel apart of the family. My 9 year old nieces, both who play competitive club soccer are a part of the group athletic development curriculum. They started last month and their soccer coach has already expressed the difference he has noticed in the girls speed and footwork. The classes provide a great semi-private experience creating peer motivation and personal enough for the coaches to provide individualized attention. Another great aspect is while they are in class, I'm able to utilize my open gym membership and get my work out in! I recommend them to everyone.

Activ8 is nothing less then amazing. The gym has a great environment for working out & is a top of the line facility with top notch equipment. The trainers are constantly pushing you to be better and holding the athletes accountable. I have seen improvements in my overall athleticism , strength , balance , etc..... would highly recommend for any athlete who is looking to take their and to another level!

Activ8 is an amazing gym and I would recommend it to anyone in SD looking for a place to train! TJ, Dan, and Andrew really push you to perform your best. They stress injury prevention, which I found to be really valuable as an athlete. The Elite classes have helped me perform better on court and have given me the competitive edge I need to play college tennis at Yale.

Activ8 has been a solid training facility over the years for myself. It has prepared me for the football season well since 7th grade and has tremendously developed my overall athleticism. Great environment for any athlete looking to enhance their game.

Activ8 is the best gym I have been in, throughout my life. Yes, I said throughout my life. I have worked in the fitness industry for over 20 years and have NEVER experienced anything like Activ8. Yes, Activ8 has a lot of what other gym's have; equipment, instructors, etc. But, what they offer in the way of class size(max 8) and their unique ability to connect with an attendee of one of their classes is truly second to none. Not only do TJ, Dan and Andrew connect with each of us, but they know when one of us is dealing with an injury and they then make an effort to adapt our workout on the spot allowing them to still get the benefit of showing up. By the way, I have been attending for over 3 years (I think) and have never had the same workout in that time. Yes, we do some of the same exercises, but the workout is never the same. As an athlete that has played sports at every level, I would recommend this to anyone and would challenge you to find something better. My classmates/instructors encourage me and know when I am not around for a bit and want to know if all is well. I am lucky that I have found Activ8, now you need to come on in and experience what I have. I challenge you to do just that! Now go! Really, go!

I have been working out with Activ8 for about a year now and I've loved it. They have been instrumental with the success of my CFA ( candidate fitness assessment) for the US Merchant Marine Academy. All the trainers love doing their job and are always willing to help when it is needed.

The Activ8 Team is the best group in San Diego. I have been seeing them for over 7 years and they have helped me come back from several big knee injuries. I would not be the collegiate athlete I am without them today.

I am a girl competitive soccer player and in the past four years I have made my way through two ACL tears. For the second one I rehabbed at proactive physical therapy, which by he way is right next door to Activ8, and made a smooth transition over to Activ8 to get back into performance training to play soccer at least one more year. I remember I had gone to Activ8 a few years before to keep my body active when on off season from soccer, but after my injury my mom talked to TJ who she learned had experienced a torn ACL as well so we immediately had something to talk about as we trained along. Now I had already gone through rehabbing my first knee two years before at a different place, so I knew what to expect, but I was so surprised when I went to train at Activ8 and it was less intimidating, less stressful, and more Informative than the first time around. I talk to all the coaches about life and going into college, instead of just solely getting my exercises done. There is a bond, that I normally have a hard time creating from being shy, that Activ8 has helped me develop.
In addition, Activ8 is super accommodating and flexible, especially for a high school athletes that can just text TJ when they need to change the time of their appointment. Also I can just come in and exercise on my own once a week if I want. Plus, I have gotten the chance to work with every trainer there and every single one is amazing, dedicated, and cooperative.

I am doing real well now with both of my knees and get a good workout in once every week. I finished high school season with Activ8 keeping my legs strong so no more injuries here. For the time I have been here I have loved it and it has been beneficial.

And so I feel like this is no longer a review, but honestly a thank you to Activ8 and it's trainers for everything they have done!

This place is awesome. My 14 yr old son went in here to try to get quicker and stronger for lacrosse and football. I was impressed with the level of detail they showed in their evaluation of my son's athleticism and their subsequent plan to improve those areas which needed the most attention. He was definitely challenged in the beginning of the process and that helped him to grow emotionally as a young man. By the end of a 3 month session, his speed and quickness were noticeably improved and he has much more confidence to compete against anyone. He physically did things that he didn't think he could do. These guys know their stuff.

I have enjoyed working out with personal trainers at Activ8 since the year it opened. I am not an elite athlete. I did not have the self discipline to exercise regularly on my own. After I had a heart transplant I knew I had to be serious about maintaining good health. The trainers treated me as if I were a serious athlete, pushing me to get stronger. They soon learned I did better if I could talk and laugh while I worked. I began to stay after my sessions to use equipment alone. I am more active now outside of the gym. My experience at Activ8 has far exceeded my expectations.
