We we’re introduced to SMTF by our amazing trainer Megan Naymola!🤩 Who is the kindest, most patient, humble and knowledgeable trainer I have ever met in my entire life. I feel the same with her new home “Self Made Training Facility” in Palm Springs, California. I have lived in the EastCoast (N. VA & NC) and all over the WestCoast and this training facility is the BEST training gym I have ever seen in my entire life!!! It has everything. Every type of Equipment. Boxing gym. It’s beyond CLEAN & The positive energy is contiguous!! EVERYONE is so kind & friendly when you walk in. Who likes to go to a snobby or intimidating gym? Not Me!! When Megan brought me to this beautiful state of the art facility I was a little shy. I’m a 50 plus woman, running a business of over 15 Independent Contractors and my fitness days felt long gone and last on my everyday priorities. Megan customized my fitness routine to my goals and experience and truly has helped me not give up on Myself. No matter how busy I get. I actually enjoyed our twice a week sessions because I knew she was putting me first when I wasn’t. When I’m out of town, Megan provides online coaching and is constant communication about my nutrition as well as my weekly routine. Which makes me push myself more on my own. I just wish I could afford Megan EVERY DAY lol. But, beyond grateful her prices are affordable so I can train 2-3 times week! Thank you coach for everything!! And congratulations on such a beautiful and welcoming training...
   Read moreThis is a two part review, one of the facility and another of a trainer. The facility is the first part:
Facility Rating: 2/5. The facility is very nice, every piece of equipment you can think of & then some. However, there is a real lack of identity… it’s advertised as a “trainers only” gym, but then there will be hordes of people there clearly without a trainer. I’m talking the fire department, high schooler night, hell even people from the local barbershop are cruising through there randomly. It’s 100% not a trainers only gym. It creates a weird atmosphere for sure. Plus, the location is not great at all. You’ll pass multiple gyms with more equipment & access before you hit this one.
Trainer 1/5. was trained by Angel Orozco for little under a year. Outside of his open displeasure with how the gym is run and the other trainers he has to work with. He was excellent to a point. He lacks variety in exercises and equipment forsure. Up to a point where we decided to end the relationship due to his egregious behavior. My spouse and I were just honestly shocked. This is a franchise facility, and I do not think they should allow a trainer with this behavior to operate out of here. I did contact the franchise owner & the director of the franchise regarding this. If you decide against your better judgment & book, everything must be on a hard copy of paper which is dated and signed - review the agreement carefully.
Overall rating: Do...
   Read moreI've been working with Angel for quite some time now, and ever since I’ve started working with him I began to see remarkable progress in my fitness journey. Angel is a true expert in this field of personal training. What sets him apart is his personalized approach to training. He takes the time to understand my fitness goals, my limitations, and my preferences, and crafted a tailored workout plan that perfectly suited my needs. During our sessions, Angel pushed me to my limits while ensuring proper form and technique. His knowledge of anatomy and physiology is truly impressive, and he is always able to explain each exercise in detail, helping me understand the purpose behind every movement. I also appreciate that Angel goes above and beyond to check in on my progress, provide nutrition guidance, and offer words of encouragement when I need them most. Thanks to Angel, I've seen incredible improvements in my strength, endurance, and overall well-being. If you're looking for a personal trainer who will challenge you, support you, and help you become the best version of yourself, look no further than Angel...
