I can’t say enough good things about Physiques Gym as you will be able to tell!!! Physiques Gym is more than a gym we are a family! When I came to Physiques I thought I was coming just to exercise, lose some weight, gain some muscle and maybe eat healthier. I have gotten sooo much more than that here! It’s been an entire lifestyle and mindset change for me.
I have been at Physique’s for 4 months and have already done what I wanted to do plus gained so much more in the process. I would have never thought I would’ve wanted to come to a gym and gain anything but muscle! Here I have gained self confidence, I’m setting boundaries, I feel so much more relaxed and beautiful, I’m mentally much stronger and many areas of my life have changed. I’ve learned a lot about myself and how strong I actually am and that is the part that you don’t expect or even pay for!
Craig and the other trainers are always there to support you! They walk the walk and talk the talk! Look at them!!! 💪🏾🏆🔥Craig believes in you when you may not even believe in yourself! Craig tells you what you need to hear no matter what! Craig is very perceptive as to whether you need to be pushed harder and also if you have something else going on or an injury and need to take a break for a day or two. Sometimes I think he has 10 sets of eyes because he can see everything that needs to be corrected and always makes sure you are doing the exercises properly to prevent injury. Chest up, shoulders back, neck straight, breathe, bend your knees, bend your back leg, open your eyes and arch your back are all words I have not heard from other trainers that I will never forget now that I have trained here. Craig is a coach, teacher, mentor, friend and sooo much more!
Another surprise aspect is the friendships I’ve gained with others in group! Everyone is so supportive in group training and your fellow group members will hold you accountable and support you as well. Working in group training has been so rewarding because when you see others pushing themselves it makes you want to push even more! If a group setting is not what you want you can do one on one sessions too. If you prefer to work with a female coach Cara is awesome and the coach for you!
In closing, I am telling you you get so much more then the best trainers you have ever worked with! You get personal coaching and you gain in so many other areas of your life. That aspect was a surprise and an awesome bonus and blessing for me at a rough point in my life. You will get pushed to new levels and learn to push yourself to new levels and get results faster and greater than what you ever have anywhere else! I am a Arizona Native and have been to at least 20 gyms in the greater Phoenix area over the last 47 years and Physiques Gym is the best gym in town hands down!!! Craig, Cara and C2 you have definitely changed my life and in the process you are also now changing the lives of the most important people to me my children! Thank you for all that you have done and continue to do! Now everyone reading this get your butt to Physiques Gym today and change...
Read moreAs someone who has competed in bodybuilding before, I WISH I found physiques gym sooner. This is not your typical gym, this is a place where you are pushed to be your best self. These trainers are incredibly strong & disciplined people who want to see you win. They want to help you win and they will do whatever it takes to get you there. There is a different kind of energy inside this gym—you are surrounded by winners. You are working out with people who have serious goals & will do anything to accomplish that, even if it means tearing your body apart. Being surrounded by this kind of energy is exactly what I’ve needed. Being pushed to my physical breaking point is miserable but essential. I can’t believe I’m saying this but the physical pain is something I’ve needed. It’s a level of discipline that I am still getting use to. Training with physiques gym has made me realize how difficult bodybuilding really is & they will never fail to drill that into my head. But that only makes me want to do it more. It pushes me to accomplish the hard & it motivates me in a way I cannot explain. At the end of session, when I walk out of that gym, I feel accomplished. I feel at my highest self because I KNOW I didn’t give up. I’ve been here for about a month and a half & have met so many strong and inspiring people. I learn so much & usually something new every day. Cara & Craig are the perfect mix of kind & caring with big side of intense.. but that’s what I love about them. They’re determined & define strength. Every time I’m in there they never fail to inspire me to push myself just a little bit more than yesterday. They have so much knowledge about not just bodybuilding but the science behind it. I feel that there’s too many people in this world calling themselves “coaches” or “trainers” who don’t have what it takes to be one. Most people do not deserve that title. Cara & craig live up to that title more than anyone I’ve ever seen. THEY are coaches. THEY KNOW what they’re doing & I trust them 1000% to shapeshift me into what we know I can become. Moving to this gym was one of the best things I could’ve done for myself & I cannot wait to see where I go with them. The second I step off that stage with the first place title, it was physiques gym that helped...
Read moreMy dad has been coming here for nearly 20 years. I had come in on a few occasions when I was younger and remember being in awe even at such a young age. Last year he convinced me to tag along to a personal training session. At 21 with zero experience with body building I was laying down on the floor, breathing as if I had just ran a marathon, after about 25 minutes of working out with Craig. It was an eye opening experience to say the least. That was the start of my new found respect that I now possess for body building. One that continues to grow as each week passes. This is for the most part due to Craig and Cara. Their knowledge and passion has been evident from the moment I met them. They have created an environment where you can comfortably express and easily begin achieving your goals. Whether it’s your first time in a gym and want to put on some muscle, lose some weight, or even if you’ve been competing for a while and you want to reach the next level. This is the place to go. Physiques gym is a place of persistence, accountability, and most importantly, winning. There is a dedication that exists in that building unlike any other place I’ve seen. The distinction from working out and body building is one that is made clear from the start. A distinction that is held up by the standard that is set. No one sits you down and says these are the rules. It’s instilled in you, not only by the coaches but the others who you body build along side with. A culture of respect and a group of people who naturally make you want to push yourself to be better. I have gained so much from this culture that I have luckily stumbled into, from more confidence in myself to a constant badgering of people telling me to eat more food. My dad had raved about Physiques for as long as I can remember and I never understood why. Probably because I thought he was just being an annoying parent. I have found that he’s been right all along as parents are most of the time. I have gained so much knowledge and made progress towards my goals in my short time at Physiques. A true gym. I know there is much to learn and many more goals to hit. I can say I am excited to continue my joinery with Craig, Cara, and the amazing community at...
