I've had memberships to all the big-name gyms in so cal over the last twenty years hoping one would be better then the last, but I was never satisfied. It was always the same old crowded, hot, dirty place with uninterested staff and managers who don't seem to care about you once you've signed the contract. I finally found Matador Performance Center through a friend and have been training here for the last 5 years and plan to stay. I can honestly say this is the BEST and the most WELL-RUN gym that I've ever been to. No doubt it is because the owner is always on the premises and oversees operations. He is constantly making upgrades and improvements...even when it doesn't appear to be needed. The facility is extremely clean, modern, and has a motivating feel to it. A nice variety of new machines, free weights, cardio and exercise equipment. The mutual respect and camaraderie between the owner, the trainers, and the clients is obvious and refreshing to see. Each time I visit, my trainer makes me feel right at home and hands me a clean, white, Downey- fresh workout towel. What other gym does that?? I have had 3 different trainers here and they all have a passion about health and fitness and seem to truly care about my personal fitness goals and helping me reach them. It's also nice that they have never coerced or pressured me into training beyond what my budget and schedule allows. No long- term or complicated contracts either. I truly look forward to working out here as often as I can.
