Ownit Rx: Opinions

Fantastic experience: I can't recommend Ownit Rx enough. I am getting physically stronger, but I am also mentally and emotionally more resilient. My ability to handle stress has greatly improved. Fabien is a great trainer, the community that he created at Ownit Rx is incredible—a range of body types and strength levels, all supporting each other to do their best. I have never been an athletic person and going to the gym has always been a chore- a chore I completely avoided. Now in my mid-40s I wanted to start taking better care of myself and so six months ago I took an intro class at Ownit. Despite being immediately welcomed by Fabien and the others in class -- truly, kindly welcomed and supported, I still struggled to go. For months I came maybe once a week, for several weeks not at all, but Fabien kept checking in and encouraging me to come back in. He modified the exercises so that I was challenged but not discouraged. And now for the last two months I have been coming three days a week and for the first time in my life, I look forward to working out. Thank you, Fabien and everyone at Ownit Rx!
Thank you so much for your thoughtful and inspiring review! Your journey over the past six months has been incredible to witness, and I’m beyond proud of the progress you’ve made—not just physically, but in the way you’ve embraced the process and built resilience in all aspects of life. It’s completely normal to struggle with consistency at first, but the fact that you kept showing up, even when it wasn’t easy, speaks volumes about your determination. I'm grateful to have played a role in your journey, but even more so, I appreciate the energy and commitment you bring to the Ownit Rx community. Seeing you go from hesitant to genuinely looking forward to your workouts is what this is all about! We’ll keep pushing, progressing, and supporting each other. The best is yet to come. Keep showing up—you’ve got this! — Fabien & the Ownit Rx Team
Negative experience: The owner might be nice to its patrons, but is very rude to anyone walking in to talk to him. They have disrespected multiple people I know just because of the color of their skin, including my parents. I stopped going there immediately, and would advice caution with them.
Dear PK, Your accusation that Ownit Rx is racist is both false and unacceptable. I have never met your parents, and considering you haven’t been a member for over two years, this claim seems entirely fabricated. In your time at our gym, no one was rude to you, and certainly no racist behavior occurred. Ownit Rx is home to a diverse community of people from all races, creeds, and orientations, and we have never tolerated any form of discrimination. If you’re going to make such serious claims, I expect you to provide evidence to support them. If you have a legitimate issue to discuss, I encourage you to come in and speak with me directly. However, I will not tolerate baseless accusations that damage our reputation. Prove it, or I will gladly refute these lies. Sincerely, Fabien Wilkinson Owner, Ownit Rx
Fantastic experience: I was a regular at lagree studios for 5 years before one day realizing I needed to level up. So, I decided to try and find a place where I could learn to lift heavier weights. Ownit opened in my neighborhood a couple years back and I always thought it looked intimidating, which is hilarious to think of now because it is so not that kind of place. I had a good feeling about joining after Fabien told me over the phone “this isn’t a bro gym,” and after the free introductory class I didn’t even bother looking elsewhere. You can expect a personal training-like experience but in a small group setting, so don’t worry if, like me, you are inexperienced with traditional gym exercises. A “class” is a structured workout where you can expect to lift weights and pull sleds and other assorted exercises, while learning good form, essentially learning how to work out at a gym (which is what I wanted). There is an app where all the workouts are loaded and I was even able to follow along while on vacation using the hotel gym. Everyone is so nice and helpful and I enjoy spending time here. Highly recommend.
Thank you for the review.
Fantastic experience: I love this gym! It’s such a good community, I like that i actually get to know the people who come to the gym. I’m so much stronger now and I can see definition and tone where i haven’t before. All in all, my whole body just feels stronger!
Thank you so much.
Fantastic experience: Great people to train with and a supportive, no-judgment community. Owner and head coach Fabien knows his stuff and sets a friendly, encouraging tone.
Fantastic experience: Long time member here. I love the sense of community that Fabian has developed amongst the members and the personalized approach he takes to training! A focus on functional fitness and strength training has been just what as I need as I look to fitness routines that I can sustain and are going to be beneficial to me in the long term.
Thank you!
Fantastic experience: I'm quite particular about cleanliness, and the first thing that caught my attention was how clean and organized the gym was. The location is also perfect, away from heavy street traffic. The personal sessions really helped me regain my mental focus for workouts, and their weekly classes ensured I stayed accountable. Overall, the atmosphere was fantastic with clean, modern equipment. Needless to say...I'm completely sold!
Thank you!!!
Fantastic experience: I’m a new member of this gym but so far I really like it! The space is a bit small but the workouts are challenging and the community of members have been really welcoming. I can see myself coming here for the long term. I also like the different class times to work with my schedule. Fabien is also nice and funny sometimes.
Thank you!
Fantastic experience: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ From the first moment I walked into Ownit Rx, I could tell it was going to be a fantastic experience. The vibe and energy here are unmatched, making each workout session truly exceptional. So much above the other gyms Ive been to throughout the SF Bay Area. Fabien, the owner, is absolutely exceptional. His dedication to each client's success is evident in his personalized approach and innovative programs. He's not just a "trainer"; he's a motivator who genuinely cares about your journey. The workouts he designs are challenging, engaging, but tailored to push you to so that you actually get real results. This was crucial to me because I was tire of doing the Orange Theory thing and getting nowhere. The community at Own It Rx is also a huge part of what makes this gym special. It’s an incredibly welcoming and supportive crew. Everyone here welcomed and me feel like I was apart of the crew even though I had just met them. From the staff to the members, I didn't feel like an outsider. The equipment and facility was also top notch which is really important to me. Ive gone to some gyms that look like they got their equipment from someones garage sale or the back lot of a Play It Again Sports. If you're in Oakland and looking to make real changes to your fitness and health, Own It Rx is the place to be. The results I’ve achieved are beyond my expectations. I’ve not only improved my physical health but gained a newfound confidence in myself because I'm finally happy with my physique which no other gym was ever able to give me Thank you, Fabien, and the whole Own It Rx team. You’ve truly changed my life for the better!
Thank you
Fantastic experience: I've been training at Ownit Rx for the past few months, and I couldn't be happier with my experience! The trainers are incredibly knowledgeable and genuinely care about helping you reach your fitness goals. The gym is clean, well-equipped, and has a welcoming atmosphere that makes working out enjoyable. The community here is supportive and motivating, which has made a huge difference in my fitness journey. I've tried both the group classes and personal training sessions, and both have exceeded my expectations. If you're looking for a place that combines professionalism with a friendly vibe, Ownit Rx is the spot for you. Come check it out and see for yourself! You won't be disappointed.
Thank you so much !!$
Fantastic experience: This gym, the owner, and his family have all been amazing! When I first started, they welcomed me in without hesitation and made me feel like family. Every time I go in to work out, I feel supported, cared for, and most importantly, feel stronger! I would recommend this gym to anybody that’s looking for an extremely knowledgeable trainer (Fabien) that can take you to the next level.
Thank you so much !!!
Fantastic experience: I’ve always struggled to make the best use of a gym membership and stay motivated… given that, I can confidently say this is the best gym I’ve ever signed up for. Classes are small and there’s a friendly and communal feel with people who want to see both themselves and others grow and succeed. I’m definitely at a beginner level when it comes to this kind of training but it hasn’t felt like an impediment. Fabien is a phenomenal and kind instructor, he gives solid individual guidance (classes are small enough for that) as well as encouragement and correction when I’m struggling with form, and he can clearly identify which parts of my body need extra strengthening. He checks in on me in between classes giving tips for at home exercises, stretches and nutrition as he sees health holistically in terms of body, mind and spirit. If you’re looking for a personal trainer he does that too and no doubt he’s a great one. Overall Ownitrx is just a really encouraging atmosphere for getting healthy and I’m so glad I joined. I feel great after every class. If you’re on the fence, don’t wait, or at least come do some trial classes and see what I mean!

Fantastic experience: Love this place! Great ownership and clientele that are supportive and just good to be around. This ego free environment has great programs that can be adjusted to accommodate anyone and I always look forward to coming here and fully enjoy myself while getting my butt kicked. I may have moved out of the neighborhood, but as long as I’m living in Oakland (likely forever) Ownit Rx will stay my gym.
Thank you!
Fantastic experience: Ownit Rx is an aboslute gem! As the Owner and a Coach, Fabien sets the tone with his wonderful energy and vibe, creating a supportive and motivating atmosphere. Fabien is attentive--he helped me correct my deadlift formヽ( ᐛ )ノ and he knows his stuff--✧・゚: *form over everything*:・゚✧ Beyond workouts, the gym organizes social events and challenges, fostering a strong sense of community and celebration. I had a blast doing the Spartan Race with the gym and the food at the Christmas party was fire~

Fantastic experience: I recently joined Ownit RX gym and I must say, it's been an amazing experience so far! The gym has great equipment and a variety of workout options to choose from. The trainers are very knowledgeable and always willing to help with any questions or concerns I have about my workout routine. The gym also has a great community feel to it, with friendly staff and members who are always willing to offer motivation and support. I particularly love the group classes and the personal training sessions, which have pushed me to achieve my fitness goals. Overall, I highly recommend Ownit RX gym to anyone looking for a top-notch workout experience.

Fantastic experience: I came in town to visit a friend and she invited me to OWNIT RX. I haven’t exercised in literal years and I have to admit I was intimidated. Fabien welcomed me with open arms! He adjusted the workouts so that I could participate in a meaningful way. The adjustments made the workout manageable, but trust me I was exhausted by the end! I also want to shout out the members. They were so incredibly warm and welcoming. I live in LA, so I don’t know a lot of people in the Bay Area. If I moved to the area, I would DEFINITELY join, not just for the incredible workout, but to establish myself in an amazing and supportive community. Thank you OWNIT RX for such an incredible experience! I’ll be back!

Fantastic experience: Great atmosphere; everybody I’ve met here is helpful and friendly.
Fantastic experience: Ive enjoyed finding and joining this new community at Ownit! A special shout out to the 6am crew that makes the whole space a fun learning environment. We workout hard and also discuss home buying, travel, kids, pop culture etc. Very happy to workout here! Thanks, Fabien & Amarra!
Thank you so much !!!!!
Fantastic experience: I‘be been training here with Juliet Barton for a couple years now. Our workouts are rigorous — I go harder in my warmups with her than I used to in my own actual workouts! So grateful to have this in my life. It makes work and playing with my kid way easier when I have more strength and energy and focus.

Fantastic experience: I worked with Fabien at Ownit Rx for individual personal training and just joined a group class. Fabien is a great trainer. (I actually worked with him previously and found him again to help me get in shape.) He’s professional, friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable. He uses a variety of moves and activities to establish and build overall strength and fitness. He expects hard work, but he won’t push too far and will provide modifications to weights and movements as needed. This is a no-nonsense but friendly environment designed for people at any level to get fit. I highly recommend Fabien and Ownit Rx.

Fantastic experience: What a gym! Fabien and Amara run a great workout regimen for all skill levels. Personally, I was very out of shape coming out of Covid and was in need of some patient, supportive coaching to get me back to where I’d been in 2020. This was just what the doctor ordered and I’m very pleased with the experience. Wonderful, tight knit community of athletes, too.

Fantastic experience: This place is so dynamic and it’s trainers are definitely in tune with their clients. I look forward to the training sessions. The culture here is one of mutual support team building and positive personal growth. Definitely exceeding my expectations
Thank you fam!
Fantastic experience: I've been going to this gym since it opened. I've tried other gyms before this one, and was disappointed in the workout program because I never felt like I got a solid workout. Here at Own-it you'll definitely get the results your looking for as long as you show up and DO THE WORK. (I got the 6-pack abs and sweat to prove it) The coaches are great people and the members make great workout partners. Its the workout you'll hate but love the results. So come and get your medicine !

Fantastic experience: OI RX is legit. It’s more than a gym, it’s a lifestyle. Yes, you get your money worth with the workouts but you also connect with the community and get to work on other factors like foods, sleep, mental health, etc. Fabien is the man! He is a natural coach because he knows just the right amount of push and challenge to keep you engaged and making gains without killing you. Don’t wait. Reach out, try a class. Now is the time to put yourself first!

Fantastic experience: Ownit Rx is special. It is not only a gym, but a community of open-minded, kind, and passionate people. Every day, I am challenged to be a stronger, healthier version of myself. Even on days when I don't feel like working out, I am happy to be at Ownit because of the coaches and people. I am personally not very self-motivated to work out on my own, so I love that Ownit focuses on group training. You get individual instruction because the classes are small. The workouts also are a little different each time, so you never get bored. All in all, words cannot describe the overwhelming amount of love I have for Fabien and the gym that he has built. If you are at all curious, I highly recommend you come check it out. You will not be disappointed.
awwwww man !!!!
Fantastic experience: Great gym with wonderful people. The coaches are knowledgeable and supportive, and the workouts are planned to help achieve longer term benchmarks. 10 of 10.

Fantastic experience: Been going for 4 months and I’m in the best shape of my life, great strength and conditioning classes, really welcoming community and helpful personal tips
Thank you!!
Fantastic experience: I've been going to Ownit for about 5 months and it's a workout that's become habit -- which says a lot! The owner, Fabian, has put together a program that is both sustainable and effective. Every day is something new, and every exercise can be adjusted to fit your skill level. There are bodies of every level of fitness and shape that come to this gym. The community here is also a very welcoming and positive bunch, which is a cherry on top. Couldn't recommend it enough. First class is free. So try it out, what do you have to lose?
Fantastic experience: I've been working out with Fabien for a few years now and he's great, funny, kind and smart. He knows how to challenge you and tailor workouts to help you reach your goals. He helped guide me through marathon training with workouts to compliment the running. I highly recommend Ownit Rx.
Fantastic experience: Ownit Rx is a brand new, beautiful facility with many ways to get creative with your workout. But more than that, the owners of Ownit are the main attraction. I’ve know Fabien for several years when he was training out of a different gym. His classes were always so brutal, but so fun and motivating. He constantly changes the routine and finds new and creative ways to make your body and your mind grow. Your paying for his leadership and sense of community while growing with likeminded, motivated individuals. You’re likely to walk out with a few sore muscles and a few new friends. 10/10 would recommend!!
Fantastic experience: I've been going twice a week and love the workouts and results! Feelin so good being back at the gym in 2021. Workouts are perfect balance of accessible and challenging. Plus Fabian is great and keeps things dynamic! 10/10 would recommend. First class is free!
Thank you!!!
Fantastic experience: Fabien’s is one of the best trainers I have had in a long time. He is great to talk to and actually knows what he is doing. I appreciate how his workout program is planned out weeks/months ahead because I like organization and I like to progress each and every week and fabien most definitely helped me progress during my time in oakland. Great Price. Great motivational trainer. Clean Gym. You can’t beat that on top of the fact you can talk to him about anything. So if you reading this go ahead and witness the best training in the BAY AREA!
Damn son!!
Fantastic experience: Fabien is without a doubt one of the best trainers Ive ever worked with! When I walked in the gym I thought for sure I’d stick out with the biggest belly, but fabien made me feel at home. He’s funny and encouraging and makes working out something to look forward to. 10/10 Definitely try it!
Aww
Fantastic experience: Challenging as all hell and so worth it. Fabian has created a fun, collaborative space that pushes you to be your best and leave it all out on the mat. I’m not someone that typically goes to gyms, I’d rather be in the woods, and many of the movements don’t come naturally to me. Both Fabian and Matt have been incredible to work first on form and then add weight to keep all the movements safe. Appreciate all the guidance and wisdom and my new “guns”. Love the results!
Thank you!!!
Fantastic experience: Been going to the gym for about 2 months and I have nothing but great things to say. I come from a background of yoga and steering away from gyms but this space is perfect because it’s not intimidating due to its smaller size and I get the focus I need to help assist with my goals. I was scared of doing heavier weights and things but have had a really supportive experience!
Fantastic experience: Fabien is an amazing trainer and makes workouts fun and exhilarating. His classes are designed for people at any level in their fitness journey and he always mixes up the routine for best results and to keep us engaged.
Fantastic experience: Small class size, individual instruction, everyday people, great vibes, and really really intense workouts! Coach Fabien's workouts have changed my life. Check it out for yourself. I promise you won't regret it :)
Thank you
Fantastic experience: I’ve trained at many facilities and with many trainers through the years. None of them compare to OwnitRx. Fabien has this place is filling the prescription - trainers who provide high quality coaching, as well as a welcoming, encouraging community, to help you push yourself through challenging workouts that will get you into great shape. Go check it out and see for yourself.
Fantastic experience: Love working out here! Not your average gym and the workouts are challenging but fun. Training with Fabien is awesome as he adjusts the workouts to what I need to improve on (e.g. strengthening, improving endurance, rehab).
Thank you!!!
Fantastic experience: Fabien is an excellent trainer !! I’m currently trying to “ Get fine for the summertime “ And he and his well trained staff are helping me do so. It’s like a family there , you will love it !
Fantastic experience: Yes, Ownitrx is a gym. With heavy stuff to lift, with stuff to make your heart rate up, with professional coaches and trainers. But Ownitrx is home. Home where you feel comfortable, accepted no matter of your level of athleticism. Home where you feel safe and want to come back. Home where friends become family and hard workouts can get easier with big dose of jokes and smiles. Come get your medicine!
Fantastic experience: After not working out during COVID, I was introduced to Ownit and Fabien. Truly one of the best 1 on 1 trainings i've ever received. I'm feeling more confident in myself and my strength. Fabien is an excellent communicator and working out with him has been an amazing educational process! I've also taken a class at Ownit and the environment is amazing. The staff is great but so are the other memebers who go there. Also...can I say, clean?? They keep the place spotless which is very important to me especially still feeling nervous about opening up after COVID. I would highly recommend personal training or the classes at Ownit
Fantastic experience: I never thought I'd survive CrossFit but I'm officially a fan! Ownit is the best gym I've been a member of in the Bay. Coach Fabien is a master of his craft and will push you while being empathetic. The facility is always clean, the music is great and most importantly all of the members are awesome. Feels more like family than a gym.
thank you
Fantastic experience: My husband and I were looking for a clean, professional and community feel gym. We found OwnIt Rx. We were warmly greeted by the owner Fabien who welcomed us immediately. Since January 2021, we have noticed how our bodies, minds and spiritual well beings feel better. We love the challenge that each class brings to us. The OwnIt Rx community sets this gym aside from others. People are friendly and motivates each other to do and be better of their whole self. What are you waiting for? Come in and check out this place so that you can OwnIt to yourself for a better YOU!
Fantastic experience: My friend invited me to try this place (first class is always free)! I said yes but was skeptical because the pandemic basically depleted all my muscles and i gave myself the go ahead to eat anything I wanted after the kids went to sleep for a solid 12 months because anxiety and that impending doom feeling one gets in a pandemic. Thank goodness I tried it! Fabien, Juliette and the crew are all so awesome.. I am so impressed at the variety of strength, cardio, and conditioning of each class. I respond best to someone telling me what to do and actually helping me out with if I can add weight, reps,etc... it's the only way I see results! They push you just the right amount and make you feel like you're part of the team from day one. I highly suggest trying this gym if you want to get fit, get healthy, gain some muscle, lose some weight... Beginners welcome! Do it!! You won't regret it!
Fantastic experience: Ownit Rx is a premier gym! Fabien is an owner and trainer that is very passionate about his clients and their fitness development. I love this gym and Fabien has poured his blood & sweat into creating a space that's inclusive for everyone despite their fitness levels and their fitness journey. I highly recommend Ownit RX to anyone and everyone that is looking for a premier fitness gym with an AMAZING community.
thank you
Fantastic experience: You’re going to make the most out of 60 minutes at OwnIt RX! Not to mention, a clean facility with top of the line equipment. I’ve trusted Fabien as my trainer for a few years now and have been able to push my strength in ways I never would’ve imagined. I appreciate being challenged while under the supervision of coaches that are attentive and caring of each member. Everyone from the staff to other gym members create a sense of positive, welcoming community that keeps me coming back. No matter where you are in your fitness journey, there’s a place for you here.
Fantastic experience: I’ve had the pleasure of working with Ownitrx for a few months now. Not only is the community authentic and welcoming (all levels), they are all committed to their training and the program. The strength and conditioning is one of the best in the Bay Area, and I can’t recommend the space, people and various training options enough.
Fantastic experience: I went to this gym for about 6 weeks while I was temporarily living in Oakland. After one class I was hooked - I hadn't had that good of a workout since well before the pandemic. I've lived in a bunch of different cities and always preferred going to boutique gyms that had great functional strength training and conditioning, and this gym rivals the best. More over, what makes this place so special is the community. Everyone at this gym is so welcoming. It feels more like a family than a gym, and it's the part I miss most after moving out of the area. HIGHLY recommend you check this place out.
thank you.
Fantastic experience: OwnitRX is a great gym! The size of the gym and the types of equipment were right up my alley. Fabien (the owner) programs challenging but fun workouts every week. All the other gym-goers I've met so far have been really encouraging and fun to be around. Plus, class sizes are pretty small. All in all, I recommend this gym to anyone who's looking for a great workout!
Fantastic experience: Coming here is always the highlight of my day. Coach Fabien and the Ownit Rx tribe (specific shoutout to the 5:30 class!) are really everything…10/10 highly recommend
Thank you!!
Fantastic experience: I love this gym! Everyone is friendly and it’s a good community to be apart of. Fabien and all the trainers really care about each persons health, fitness goals and overall well-being. They really focus on proper form, mobility and give you modifications when needed, which was really helpful in my experience, since I had not been to a gym in over a year. The classes are a perfect balance of strength training and high intensity conditioning. Every week I feel stronger, healthier and notice improvement on my athletic performance. It’s the best workout!!

Fantastic experience: The Best!!!!
Thank you
Fantastic experience: Positive: Communication , Professionalism , Quality I absolutely loved every workout I ever did with Coach Fabien! He fosters such a supportive and enthusiastic workout environment. His training is not only fun, but also get's you in fantastic shape. I highly recommend Ownit Rx if you want to train with someone who is highly qualified and also genuinely cares about his clients. :)
Fantastic experience: I love working out at Ownit Rx. Ownit Rx has created such a wonderful community of people who are really focused on improving their health, supportive of others at any level and fun. I am definitely stronger since I started training at Ownit Rx! Thank you Fabien!
Thank you Katie.
Fantastic experience: One of the best privately owned gyms I’ve EVER been to! What better way to work out and improve your life than to do it with a group of people that make you feel like you’re with family and close friends. You’ll not only walk out of there with a better body, better mind but also great connections and a family that is there for you. OWNit RX is the dose of medicine we all need in our lives! Thank you Fabien & Family for all that you do!
Fantastic experience: This is the best workout facility, classes and staff I’ve ever tried. After moving from SF, I tried a bunch of different gyms and classes. This one is great. The staff are very friendly and knowledgeable without being pushy or intimidating. It’s such a welcoming environment, plus the music is always fun.
Thank you!!!
Fantastic experience: Positive: Professionalism I have worked with Coach Fabien since he has been at the other gym location. He is great at what he does (train the hell out of you...) once you follow his directions you will definitely see results you are looking for. He has helped me a lot over the years to accomplish my weight lost goal.
Fantastic experience: I’m not usually a gym person, but the impact of COVID was both a mental and physical one for me. I trusted Fabien with the safety precautions he was taking and the professionalism for which they ran their gym. Joining OwnIt Rx was the highlight of this horrendous year. Added plus: you get a whole load of laughter every time you’re training with him. Thank you Fabien and OwnItRx fam!
Fantastic experience: Positive: Professionalism , Quality I’ve enjoyed my workouts and the challenge. Fabien is great coach!! I’ve never worked on strength training and now I’m stronger and in the best shape I’ve ever been in!!!
Fantastic experience: Fabien is a true gem and you’d be lucky to have him — or anyone he chooses to be a part of his team — as your coach. It’s rare to find a community that inspires you to show up consistently and always give it your all. But Fabien creates that! If you are trying to figure out how to shed your covid-19 body in 2021...look no further!
Thank you!!!
Fantastic experience: At risk of sounding too over the top, Coach Fabien has changed me. I had never attempted anything similar to metcon (mostly a yoga or elliptical girl - if anything) and now I can honestly say that I’m addicted and a much better person for it. Fabien is the best coach around and all of the members are equally as welcoming and inspirational. The workouts are tough, but scalable, fun and they’re always willing to help a newbie. My husband and I started working out with Fabien about five years’ back with joint personal training sessions and he's honestly the most energizing trainer. We are so excited that he opened his own gym, OwnItRx. Since we moved a bit further away, we even drive 45 minutes to attend classes at OwnItRx because it’s so worth it!! I love working out at this gym. Thanks Coach Fabien and OwnItRx!!
Thank you!!!
Fantastic experience: Loved everything about the experience at Ownit Rx. The staff was very friendly, attentive, and extremely knowledgeable. Especially this big burly dude with a large head, who said he was the owner. He was extremely inviting. The gym had nice equipment, and was very clean. They also seemed very serious/dedicated to following Covid guidelines. Wonderful experience, and will continue to go back!
Fantastic experience: I love this gym! Everything is brand new and spotless but the best thing is trainer Fabien Wilkinson. His classes and workouts are always different and always challenging. He personally adjusts each workout for every client’s fitness level and personal goals. His thoughtfulness and genuine interest in his clients overall well-being help his clients through a tough workout as well as a tough day. would give 10 stars if I could!!
Thank you Jen
Fantastic experience: Fabien is a great motivator and has an unlimited source of knowledge with a varied background and from what I’ve seen loves to keep adding to that. As a woman it’s very important to feel comfortable with a male trainer and Fabien exceeds that, he’s able to give great verbal corrections but is very consciousnesses if he does have to make physical ones, no creeper vibes here. All in all I’ve had nothing but great experiences at Ownit!
Love it
Fantastic experience: I first met Coach Fabien in 2017 at another gym in West Oakland. He is a motivating force in my life that pushes me to reach my mental and physical goals. I’ve learned how to do kipping pull ups, rope climb, Olympic lift and more with him. I am so excited he has started his own gym and thrilled to follow him here. I remember attending one class and Coach Fabien introduced me to David Goggins, he is one of the world’s best ultra-endurance athletes and retired Navy SEAL. He wrote a book called, “Can’t Hurt Me: Master your Mind and Defy the Odds.” We talked about our physical strength and how much our minds typically fail us before our body will. Coach Fabien trained me to see workouts as an enjoyment for my mental space and push my body’s limits. I know you’ll find what you’re looking for here. He truly cares about his clients and will tailor the workouts for your own pace. All are welcome!
Fantastic experience: Positive: Communication , Professionalism , Quality Never have I felt more comfortable, motivated, and inspired at a gym! This place is a FAMILY! Coach Fabien has been with me on my journey as I’ve lost over 40lbs and his encouragement has never wavered!
Fantastic experience: Fabien is super knowledgeable and conscientious. He designs excellent workouts, makes sure my form is correct, and manages to keep the process fun and upbeat. I look forward to working out with Fabien.
Fantastic experience: I moved into the building above OwnitRx and really needed a local gym to keep me committed and hitting my goals and I am super glad I came across OwnitRx. Fabien & Amara have really done an amazing job in creating an atmosphere that encourages you to work hard while also building a community of support. Currently have been working out here for about 3 months and I've never once left the gym unsatisfied, the group trainings are tailored to fit any fitness level/age so its definitely beginner friendly. If working out by yourself is your vibe then that's also an option too but all in all this is a great place. 10/10
Fantastic experience: Fabien and his awesome team at Ownit Rx have been an incredible source of inspiration during a time when motivation is hard to find. Everyone involved takes your personal goals to heart and works with you to make sure you are on track. The facility is amazing, and their ability to adapt to the ever changing state regulations has been great, and very much appreciated because as a small business implementing the changes can't be easy. I would definitely recommend anyone, no matter what their fitness levels or goals are, give Ownit Rx a chance!
Thank you!!!
Fantastic experience: Ownit Rx is a brand new, beautiful facility with many ways to get creative with your workout. But more than that, the owners of Ownit are the main attraction. I’ve know Fabien for several years when he was training out of a different gym. His classes were always so brutal, but so fun and motivating. He constantly changes the routine and finds new and creative ways to make your body and your mind grow. Your paying for his leadership and sense of community while growing with likeminded, motivated individuals. You’re likely to walk out with a few sore muscles and a few new friends. 10/10 would recommend!!
Fantastic experience: I have worked with Coach Fabien since he has been at the other gym location. He is great at what he does (train the hell out of you...) once you follow his directions you will definitely see results you are looking for.
