Beard Fitness — Attraction in Colorado Springs

If you're looking for a gym that is tailored to your needs to help you achieve better health and a stronger mind and body...look no further...you have found it! I stumbled across Beard Fitness through a referral, have been working with Scott for just over 3 months and have never looked back. I am so happy with my results so far...It is now September and according to my scans I've gained 10 lbs of muscle and decreased my % body fat by 10%!!!!

At 53 (a recent empty nester) I decided I wanted to focus on myself and regain strength after struggling to lift something I would have asked my son to help me with, yet he was away at school and not available. After an ACL reconstruction and rotator cuff surgery within the last couple of years, I was feeling a little defeated and still working to regain some loss of mobility as a result of those surgeries. I joined a local gym, but the equipment was very different from what I used decades ago, and it was a little intimidating to work out with all of the people taking videos for Instagram, and there really wasn't anyone to ask for the type of help I needed in that environment. Scott is seriously one of the most welcoming and motivating people I have worked with, and frankly one of the most dedicated fitness professionals I have ever met. His focused guidance and support has helped me cease my negative self-talk, held me accountable to my workouts/nutrition (while helping me understand my needs as a vegetarian for optimal results), and has taught me to lift heavier than I ever would have on my own. He has a way of encouraging me and pushing my limits way beyond my comfort zone in a positive way while building a solid foundation for safe workouts and the confidence to believe in myself.

Scott's kind/easygoing demeanor and focus on proper form and FUN have seriously motivated me and I'm loving the transformation and reappearance of muscles I haven't seen grow in years. Working with Scott has been the best investment I have made in myself in a LONG time. I still have a bit to go in achieving my ultimate goal, I understand there's no quick fix for years of putting myself last yet it's exciting to see the consistent progress I'm making week over week. My success with Scott's coaching is proof that finding the right support and maintaining the right nutrition habits and dedication to the challenging workouts will provide results. I truly look forward to my training sessions, and I consider Scott a great friend/confidant and a true cheerleader to my success (which I really needed!). I have also met some of his other clients and love how they support/cheer each other on as we transition in and out of sessions. The boys at Beard Fitness have truly built a community of fitness, and I'm grateful to be...

I’ve been training with Scott for about eight months now, and it’s been a transformative experience. Starting a gym routine in my late forties was intimidating, especially with no prior strength training background, but Scott made the whole process not just manageable, but actually enjoyable and safe.

As a yogi with hypermobility, I’ve always had a lot of flexibility, but I needed to build strength to balance that out and prevent injury. One of my main goals was to be able to do a handstand, and Scott really listened to what I wanted to achieve. He designed each workout to specifically target the strength I need—especially in my upper body and core—while always keeping my safety a priority.

Every session with Scott feels fresh, challenging, and purposeful. I leave feeling energized and ready to take on the rest of my day. He’s incredibly supportive and motivating, helping me push past limits I didn’t even know I had.

If you’re someone who's hesitant to start strength training or just want to take your fitness to the next level, I can’t recommend Scott enough. His approach is thoughtful, effective, and you’ll always feel supported in your journey.

The gym, Beard Fitness, is fantastic — clean, welcoming, and well-maintained, with flexible hours that fit into even the busiest schedules. An added bonus is the stunning view—during certain hours, you can enjoy breathtaking sunrises and sunsets, as well as a beautiful, panoramic view of Pikes Peak...

I’ve been working with Scott at Beard Fitness for about 10 weeks, and the results have been nothing short of amazing. Having had multiple knee surgeries, I wasn’t able to squat or lunge for years. After just 9 weeks, I was able to perform deep squats again, and I’m still progressing towards lunges. Scott is extremely knowledgeable and has a strong focus on mobility, which has been key to my progress. Both Chaz and Scott are very friendly and easy to work with.

It is a little on the expensive side compared to a standard gym membership, but it’s absolutely worth every penny. You never have to wait for a machine, and the facility is immaculate with top-of-the-line equipment. What really sets them apart is the personal attention you receive. There’s always someone there to push you to your limits, helping you reach failure in a safe and controlled way. On top of that, they provide valuable insight into your nutrition. Using their InBody machine, I’ve been able to track my progress precisely — losing 12 pounds of fat and gaining 2 pounds of muscle over 10 weeks.

If you’re looking for a gym that provides personalized care, expert coaching, and a clean, professional environment, Beard...
