After almost 4 years of not going to the gym, 5 months ago I took the leap and I started training with Pete Peterson, first the stats. I weighed 270 lbs at the start I am know 260.lbs. My Muscle Mass was 110 it is now 118.8 ( that's .2 from 9 lbs of new muscle). My Body Fat was 29.8 it is now 22.6. Every month I have exceeded my expectations and if you have a trainer that is what you should demand of your trainer, RESULTS! Beating Expectations and Overall improved body muscle and health, CHECK!. I also am now a 36 waist when I started I was 40. That felt awesome to share! My review. I read Petes bio and I felt he was the best match for me. Picking a trainer for someone who has trained for over 30 years (I'm 52) is not easy, because I need someone that will push me, explain to me why I am doing this when I ask intelligently and knows his SH$T because you can't fake it with someone who lived to train since his teens and there is nothing worse than a fake poser trainer! but with the pandemic, herniating my lower disks (L4/L5) and owning my own company which means I work sometimes 24-7, and with travel every month I got severely out of shape, packed on 35+ lbs, dropped in muscle mass, waist size expanding from a 34 to a 40 and I just became a couch potato with damage self esteem. But 5 months ago and with some heavy pushing from my husband of 10 years I did it and it was the best thing I have done for myself in the last 4 years. Pete is not just an awesome person, he is super knowledgable about training, the body, fitness, and lots of other super fun stuff that can keep you engaged and motivated as your training. He took into consideration my injuries and my messy back which meant the first month/6 weeks was really getting my body realigned, getting it back into the rhythm of working out, and burning off the fat. It also meant getting my confidence back to be in the gym. The last 5 months I have maintained a 3 day a week schedule with Pete, packed with muscle building, fat burning routines that have transformed my body faster than I ever thought possible! I posted my 5 months results as proof of how good Pete is, it amazing how a person can motivate you and keep you motivated plus talk to you clearly about why you are doing this, why you are doing that, here is the path and what the goal. I am person that needs to know the person I am training with know his SH$T and I need to see results or you're not my trainer, period. Now my husband trains with, Pete a buddy of ours just started training with Pete and a few more friends are thinking of switching their trainers for Pete based on the results I have had, at 52! so I no spring chicken! You want to get back to you fighting weight, to wear clothes you feel good in, to look in the mirror and whistle at yourself because your so HOT, to bring your sexy back in your relationship big time! Pete is your man. Thanks Pete, you're a game changer buddy!

Well, 10 months later and I feel I owe OAC an updated review. Things got much much worse before they got better. The whole personal training staff quit and no one in the admin office answers emails or gives a damn about your experience, as far as I can tell, so they've lost me as a personal training client. You'd think this would be a priority since I pay WAY more for 2xweek training than I do for use of the gym, but curiously, despite trying to reach out in person, by phone, by email, and even by yelp review-- yeah, no one cares. Why 4 stars? Well, at the end of the day, my annual fee (about $60/month each when you pre-pay) seems like a decent deal after the remodel. They now have 6 lifting platforms in the main weight room. They also just installed 8 or 10 more in a newly remodeled area and I think there are 4-6 more downstairs. So, I have not had to fight for a squat rack in months. Hallelujah. Rarely do I find a wait for things like benches or machines. All in all, this is much improved. And, another big cheer for AC everywhere. Cool, sweet, breezy AC, how I love you on a 90 degree day. I'm not really into classes or doing cardio in a gym these days but they do seem to have a lot of classes and cardio equipment with a variety of different views, if that's your jam. I would say I'm much happier now than I was last fall, but once again, we'll see what happens with the renewal and if they decide to rebuild a personal training program. Oh, parking, can we talk about parking? You technically get parking included but there either aren't enough parking spots or they don't do a great job policing them. It's tough to find a spot unless you go at like 3pm on friday or 7am on a weekend. So, I try to either walk or bike (there is also not enough bike parking in the area but that is an sdot issue).
