Discover Your Ultimate Fitness Sanctuary at Frankie's MMT Fitness Gym – My Personal Haven!

As a proud member of Frankie's MMT Fitness, let me take you on a tour of what makes this gym my go-to workout destination. Picture this: a well-equipped space filled with a diverse collection of Kettlebells (up to 2.5 pood), rubber-encased Dumbbells (up to 80 pounds), powerful Weighted Barbells (up to 110 lbs), and an exceptional Hex Bar – perfect for my strength training journey.

The sight of the Squat rack, Olympic Plates, and platforms immediately fuels my motivation, while the various cable machines cater to both my leg and upper body workouts. Cardio enthusiasts, rejoice! The cardio section boasts 2 Peloton bikes, treadmills, stair climbers, Concept 2 vertical skiers, and the legendary Rogue’s Echo Bike – ensuring I never get bored with my routine.

But what truly makes this gym stand out for me is its dedication to striking arts. The Muay Thai bags, heavy bag, and expansive mat space make it a dream for someone like me who enjoys Muay Thai Techniques, Kickboxing, and traditional Boxing.

The heart of Frankie's MMT Fitness is undeniably its owner and head instructor, Frankie himself. Beyond his striking expertise, Frankie embodies kindness and approachability. His open-door policy makes the gym feel like a community, and his willingness to offer advice and support adds a personal touch to my fitness journey.

The community of members here adds another layer to the experience. It's not just a gym; it's a diverse and welcoming community filled with positive vibes, where I feel at home regardless of my background.

Frankie's MMT Fitness doesn’t just stop at equipment and classes. The flexible operating hours suit my busy schedule, ample parking makes life easier, secure lockers keep my belongings safe, and the filtered water station ensures I stay hydrated during those intense sessions.

Years ago I first walked into this gym after spending 7 days in the ICU due to my own poor decisions. I needed to improve my health and I am so thankful this was the gym I walked into. After a few months, and encouragement from the coaches, I started getting on the mats for Muay Thai, and absolutely fell in love with it. Friends and family both would comment on how my physical and mental health had improved since joining the gym.

I had to move out of Orange County and leave MMT so I tried a different school in my new location and I absolutely hated it in comparison to the amazing coaches at MMT. So I quit doing martial arts for multiple years.

When I moved back to OC (years later) I came back to MMT, and was shocked that not only did Frankie (the owner) remember me but many of the other members of the gym and coaches remembered me too. Since returning I've lost over 30 pounds and went down 2 belt notches.

This year I had my first fight and felt beyond supported by the entire staff and community they built there. They pushed me beyond where I thought I could go but never past where I actually could go, and with their help won my first fight.

If you are looking to get in shape and build confidence in yourself? This is the right place. If you're looking to learn to defend yourself? This is the right place. If you are looking to gain the skills to become a fighter? This is the right place. If you are already an elite fighter and want to train with men and women at a high caliber (people so good I struggle to comprehend it)? This is the right place. If you're a bully or have a big ego this is the WRONG place.

Whatever your goals are it's up to you to achieve them but this gym will give you the expertise, knowledge, and tools to do so and be in your corner the...

This review is split into 2 parts. The fitness people who want a private gym and not some LA Fitness scam, and the 2nd review is for aspiring Martial Arts athletes.

If your looking for a gym to get cardio kickboxing in, use some gym equipment, this place is it. They have some amazing trainers if you want a 1v1 to help you with your fitness goals, they will help you reach it. I've seen it.

Now, if you're looking to get into Martial Arts, starting Muay Thai or coming from other backgrounds, this place is it. Frankie Mercado isn't just insanely knowledgeable, he's built champions and built fighters ready for the professional league.

I can give stories and examples of how this gym treated me, only being here 5 months and it's felt like I've been with these guys a lifetime. This here is family energy and if you truly have a desire to get to the mountain top, or any destination, Frankie and the boys will help you. But it's on you to stay true to yourself by showing up.

A blissful...
