MROC Training is an obstacle course gym designed for active adults who want to stay fit, crush goals, and have fun!

At MROC, we believe that working out should be fun and challenging, not boring. That's why we offer a variety of obstacle courses and strength training exercises in a team environment. Whether you're a beginner or a seasoned athlete, you'll find something to push you at MROC. Plus, our culture of accountability and support will make you feel right at home. We're veteran owned and operated, and have been since 2014.

You need to be patient when trying to see results. They may take some time, but if you stay consistent, you will definitely see results. It's exciting to see how quickly results come when you're just starting out. In just 30 days, you can see a significant difference in your strength and overall fitness.

We enjoy organizing our classes into small groups. This allows you to get to know other students who may share your interests!

If you're starting from a low level of fitness, you should realistically aim for 2-4 classes per week. Your body will need time to adjust to the intensity of the workouts, so you may need more recovery time between training days at first. After a few months, you can work your way up to training 5 days per week.

Our fitness program is what will help you get in shape, regardless of your current fitness level. As you become fitter, the workouts will become more challenging. Every workout is designed to help you succeed, improve fitness, and move you closer to your goals. Our program is scalable, making it perfect for any committed individual regardless of experience.

Our class programming will include a strength portion in which you’ll work on something like Olympic weightlifting, deadlifting, squatting, or bodyweight strength or you may work on a skill like handstand push-ups. After the strength or skill portion of the class is complete, most days will involve a workout that was programmed for that specific day. Workouts can be anywhere between 5 to 20 minutes or more.

You should enjoy special indulgences and meals as part of a lifestyle, but it has to be manageable and realistic for the long-term. Luckily, the healthier you eat, the healthier you tend to want to eat. You get hooked on feeling good and junk food just isn’t worth it. By avoiding excessive amounts of refined carbohydrates and measuring your intake of protein, carbohydrates, and fat, you will see dramatic, measurable increases in health.

Fantastic experience: I joined MROC in November 2021 and have had the most wonderful experience ever joining a group fitness community. The people (trainers and athletes) here are truly kind and genuinely happy to be there, to see you, and make you feel welcome immediately. I've joined many different group fitness places, including crossfit, and none of them were as welcoming and FUN as MROC. The incorporation of running, lifting, HIIT training, and obstacles keeps your body constantly moving and reacting for a true total body workout. If you enjoy working out, have goals you want to achieve, and are looking for a fun, inviting place to do it, MROC is the place for you!!

Fantastic experience: I have been working out at MROC for a couple months now. The energy here is amazing! Everyone is so encouraging and the workouts are tough but also fun. The coaches are great and I would highly recommend MROC.

Daniel Webb 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: MROC is a fantastic place to be motivated and inspired to be the best you can be! The team atmosphere, and friendly competition that lives in this gym give you the drive to achieve things you may have never seen yourself doing. A big part of this is the coaching staff, who are not only knowledgeable and experienced, but they genuinely care about everyone and help them reach their fitness goals, whatever they may be.

Fantastic experience: I never thought, at 47, I’d be in the best shape of my life! For 27 years I had been working out at the big name gyms, doing my own thing. One of the best things about Mroc is that the amazing coaches design workouts for us! No more thinking about what you’re going to do at the gym or if you’re doing it right. The coaches are there assisting you every step of the way. If you’re looking to train for a Spartan race this is the place to be! I recently ran my first race and placed 7th out if 15 in age group. The coaches and I are already working on getting me to the next level for my second race ! The first thing I noticed at Mroc was that this gym was on another level. As a beginner there, I was worried I couldn’t do all the others could do , but, to my relief, the expert coaches modified the workouts for me. Whether your an elite athlete or just starting to workout, the trainers will meet you where you’re at on your journey. The other members are welcoming and encouraging to all! We are like a big family and I’ve made several new friends. If you want to race Spartans or just get into better shape, you will reach your personal goals here!

Chris Manuele 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: MROC is the best obstacle training gym around. While I was a member there I was in the best shape of my life. My runs got faster, my lifts got heavier and my races got easier. Coach Mike and the rest of the crew are very passionate about continually improving the gym, the curriculum and the members themselves. If you want to take OCR to the next level, this is the place to do it.

Michael Gearhart 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: MROC has everything you need for OCR and Spartan Race training. Although I've completed 25 Spartan Races, their Obstacle Skill Series training provided pro tips and multiple techniques to complete an obstacle that I never considered. The MROC equipment/obstacles replicate Spartan's and enabled me to repeatedly practice what I learned; likely saving me a 60-90 burpees per race. The staff is extremely knowledgeable, friendly, and top notch OCR performers. It's totally worth the time and money to invest in MROC training.

Michelle Pohle 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: MROC is amazing. The coaches and community want to see you suceed. Classes are fun and rewarding, you always leave feeling like you were able to accomplish something that day. I love MROC and highly recommend it to anyone who wants to improve their overall fitness or jump into the OCR world!

Kate Dillione 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Such an amazing experience! We walked in during Open Gym hours on Saturday in prep for a Spartan Race, and the instructor, Jeremy, was so helpful. He showed us all the movements we will encounter during our race, and he told us all the tips and tricks. Highly recommend coming in to try something new or to train for a race!

Gloria Tupuola 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: What can I truly say about MROC that hasn’t already been said? I was looking to switch up my workout routine after being at my workout studio for 4 years. I needed something that was going to challenge me both physically and mentally. I was looking for something that was going to push me past what I thought my limits were and make me a better athlete all around. I checked out their obstacle simulation course on a Saturday and was instantly hooked. After trying a few other workout studios, I kept thinking about how challenging the course was and how much I was itching to come back. What else sold it for me was how much they want you to respect the space that you’re in and keep things clean. That is HUGE for me! Everything that everyone is saying in these reviews are spot on. MROC has some of the best coaches I have ever worked with. They are not only your biggest cheerleaders, but they also truly care about what you’re doing and how you’re doing it. Trying new things can be super intimidating but you have a community of people behind you at all different phases/paths in their lives, cheering you on. It is challenging but, it is FUN! I am so happy and grateful to be a part of this community and so happy to have found MROC!

Fantastic experience: My wife, daughter and I competed at the Deka Mile hosted by MROC today. What a fantastice event! Very well run, excellent coaches, just a tremendous vide. See you in October if not sooner to train at your gym.

Nicoletta K 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I found out about MROC from someone at a Spartan race about a year ago. They offer obstacle course training. I signed up for one of their obstacle course trainings and I really liked it. The trainers were awesome! They showed us techniques to get through different obstacles. Since then, I have been back for one of their Saturday obstacle course sessions and a DEKA Mile. They are super organized, friendly, motivating. Both the coaches and the MROC members were friendly. I felt comfortable every time I was there. It's a fun place to work out. I also like that they allow guests for their Saturday sessions.

Tracey Baldemor Von Dollen 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Was in the area for a short time for work, decided to try out this gym because it looked so fun! Not only did they have a flexible payment plan for my short stay, the whole gym had a really great vibe. All the instructors are so sweet and encouraging and knowledgeable, so are the folks who attend classes regularly. Definitely not your average gym — the obstacle course aspect makes it like a big jungle gym for adults plus you get stronger and more prepared for any obstacle course races you may do. Lots of classes offered early morning and later in the evening. Also they do a body scan for objective tracking of your progress! Would def recommend to everyone who wants a welcoming and super unique gym.

Betty Moore 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: If I could give 100 stars I would. I initially came to MROC to train for a Spartan race but have discovered so much more! Mike and his coaching staff are masters at circuit training, obstacle training, all things fitness and mobility. MROC has state of the art equipment and recently added a Recovery area for when your muscles ache. I've never been a gym rat before but something about MROC keeps me showing up consistently every week. The encouragement & support I get from the coaches and all the members is very real. Definitely worth every penny!!!! I'm loving the results too.

Shari Schwartzer 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: All the other five star reviews got it right for this gym. I am so grateful I decided to join as soon as I moved to Carlsbad. I have learned so much in the short time I’ve been a member. The coaches truly care about your form and progress. They are so upbeat and the members are so incredibly nice and motivating. The obstacles are super fun and make you want to get stronger to conquer them. You will be pushed to be better and to do it with a smile on your face. I recently took the running clinic which was 3 sessions over the course of three weeks. This was exactly what I needed. I used to be a runner, but due to a back injury had to take the past year off of running. Now getting back into it I wanted to make sure my form was correct. The clinic taught me better form and so much more. I feel so much better running now and am ready to start increasing my distance. If you’re on the fence about one of their clinics I say just do it. You’ll have fun and probably gain more than you expect.

Fantastic experience: This is the best Gym experience I have ever had. The trainers are knowledgeable and know how to challenge and lift me during each workout. Thank you Brandon and Tiffany I appreciate all that you do.

Ginger Capers 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: This review is a long time coming. But how to convey how awesome this place is? I would give it 100 stars! I’ve done a lot of workout programs…like, a LOT! But I’ve NEVER made the progress like I have in the 3 1/2 months I’ve been coming here! When I started I was pretty good at hanging motionless from the monkey bars. Now I can go UP the monkey bars, swing from ring to ring, go over the high wall faster, and today I got the Spartan race weight Herc Hoist to the top…TWICE!! I can lift heavier, use better form, and run faster! The coaches here are WORLD CLASS! Even in group classes, it feels like you’re getting so much one-on-one coaching. There’s no way I’d have made this much progress in such a short time (if ever) by attending traditional group fitness classes at any other gym I’ve gone to. If you’re looking for a place to get in the best shape of your life, whilst having a ton of fun, stop looking and join MROC! I’d heard about MROC from a friend and was curious, but super intimidated! The first time I walked in, Coach Brandon was there & cheerfully said, “Oh come on in, don’t be intimidated, it’s just basically like a playground for grownups.” And that’s about sums it up…a playground full of really fun encouraging people where you get awesome at doing cool stuff. tl;dr…Just join, you won’t regret it!

Fantastic experience: This gym is my happy place! It’s an amazing community of diverse athletes at all levels with incredible highly skilled and knowledgeable coaches! I have made lifelong friends AND got in the best shape of my life! Highly recommend!

Ben Kent 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: After 2 years with MROC I can say this is the best overall gym environment I’ve ever trained in. The friendly competition of OCR events on Saturday, the fun and flexible group fitness classes, and the incredible coaching staff make this a unique experience. Thanks to MROC, I’m now more mobile than ever and found a perfect environment to overcome old injuries while maintaining strength training.

Rosel Liza Reyes 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Positive: Communication , Professionalism , Quality I would recommend MROC to anyone with fitness goals and needs help meeting those goals. The program is geared for success incorporating the proper attitude and hard work. The coaches and members are extremely supportive of each other. I used to dread working out but coming to MROC has become the best part of my day.

Robert Vangrin 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: A little over a year so far at MROC, and can't give the team and facilities over there enough praise. Classes are designed and run by a fantastic group of coaches who are able to get the best out of any skill set or physique individual. If you are willing to put in the work, MROC will give you all the competition, coaching, training tools, and motivation necessary to hit personal bests for your strength, cardio, and competition goals.

marianne masterson 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I’ve been a member for 3 months now and am loving my experience! Coaches are very knowledgeable, encouraging, and put together interesting and effective workouts. I look forward to my continues improvement as I gain strength and technic.

Brandon Burbach 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: ***UPDATE May 5, 2022*** I just wanted to provide a quick update on my review. After about 1.5 years of being apart of the MROC Army, I couldn't be more happy with my decision to join MROC! Going to the gym is now truly something I look forward too each day. The gym has drastically improved all aspects of my health and fitness. I've lost about 30 lbs since joining and have made incredible gains in my strength, endurance, and cardio. Now instead of just trying to survive the workouts, I'm working on pushing myself each day, and am setting and achieving goals I never thought possible. This is all thanks to the MROC staff and fellow gym members who provide a community of support and motivation that is unmatched. I can't recommend MROC more to anyone that wants to improve their health and fitness and have a great time doing it! ****** MROC has been a true highlight in my life since I joined back in September! I can't recommend it more to anyone looking to improve their health! As a gym it was exactly what I was looking for. They do a great job of incorporating all aspects of overall fitness: strength, cardio, endurance, mobility, and functional fitness. Which was critically important to me, because I want to be the best balanced athlete I can be. Their workouts are INTENSE but in a good way! They help you push past your limits, work harder and do more than you ever thought possible! And yes they also have all the awesome obstacles you could ever imagine! So if you're an OCR racer or just looking for something new and fun to shake up your workouts, you can't find another place like this anywhere in SD. But what I really think makes MROC so unique and special are their Coaches — they are simply EXCEPTIONAL! I don't know how else to put it. Not only are they incredible, elite level athletes with a deep knowledge of exercises, fitness and mobility, but their energy and enthusiasm is infectious! They create an atmosphere that is so positive, happy and motivating that you can't help but want to be there, even as they're kicking your butt in a workout! And I've had amazing results since I joined! Everyone kept saying "you just gotta keep showing up" and boy do the results start coming in! In the short time that I've been there, I've lost a considerable amount of weight, made major gains in strength, and greatly improved my overall cardio. MROC has got me back on the path working towards the level of fitness I want to achieve and I couldn't be more excited to "keep showing up"!

Fantastic experience: Amazing gym! The staff is so awesome, motivating and positive. Keeping me strong minded and body. This is my home. Highly recommended. The people here are so supportive, nice and inspiring!

Blake Coolidge 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: This place is awesome. I’ve never been to a gym like it - a mix of a great workout with some fun & challenging obstacles. Jeremy was very helpful showing us around during open gym (Saturday). We’re getting ready for our first Spartan Race and he helped coach us on the obstacles and techniques to get through them. We’ll be back for sure!

Sam Jordan 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: At the risk of sounding like I'm exaggerating - this place changed my life. I'm not a member and live over an hour away from MROC but I heard they had a running clinic through word of mouth and decided it was worth checking out. I love running and have been recovering from a series of injuries, so I almost didn't go, but again, thought that I might still get something out of it even if I couldn't participate. Not only could I participate, but I saw and felt an astonishing change by the end of the clinic. We covered an impressive amount of information in so many areas related to running like lifestyle, nutrition, form, equipment.... For something that I have loved doing and pursued my whole life, I had no idea how little I actually knew. I wasn't by any means the only one that saw success - I think every single person there felt a certain degree of the same. More than the external/physical improvements though, I felt a renewed sense of hope in what I would be able to accomplish going forward, knowing that I am approaching it in a much healthier and worthwhile way. Thank you so much to both coaches - Tiffany and Brandon!

Molly Crowley 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Can't say enough about this gym. Found it a few years ago, and finally able to come back and train here full time. The energy and the community are one of a kind. All of the coaches are wicked knowledgeable and push you to your best, and always have ways to modify workouts as needed for anyone's fitness level

Max Long 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: MROC is fantastic and I couldn't be happier there. I took over two years off from OCR after moving across the country, and after being at MROC for only 4 months, I actually did better on the obstacles than in the past. If OCR isn't your thing, the gym is still terrific. The community is top notch, and there is nothing but support from the other members. The gym also hit a home run with the primary coaches. Not only are Coach Tiff and Coach Brandon world class athletes in their own right, they are excellent at leading classes and getting the absolute best out of everybody.

Nancy Breymeier 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: traveled 2 hours to get here. Oh boy was it worth it. had everything i needed to get the "ninja" workout i needed. But this facility is way more than Ninja, i think they had every fitness modality one could ever want. The trainer had a couple great techniques to help me conquer my weak areas. The facilty was super clean, super organized. Asked my husband if we could move closer. Best gym ever!.

Drew Wagner 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Very happy to have joined this gym. Working out before hand felt like a chore but with MROC I actually enjoy going to workout. The coaches are well versed in all things fitness and the classes are very challenging but coaches are quick to make adjustments and provide alternate workouts should the workouts of the day be too challenging. Good for any starting fitness level. Shakes up your workout too as during one session you might be doing deadlifts then scaling a rock wall or A-Frame obstacle; keeps it interesting. Coaches care more about form rather then reps to make sure you don't hurt yourself and get the most of your workout. Everyone we've encountered there have also been very friendly and encouraging during the workout process. Working out with the Coaches and other members definitely feels like a team effort. RESULTS ON THREE

Brooks Sterling 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: MROC is a great community to be a part of. All the coaches are amazing and extremely knowledgeable. The workouts are challenging and rewarding for all levels of expertise and are setup in a way so that you can continue to challenge yourself as you progress psychically/mentally. I'd highly recommend MROC to anyone looking for a change/challenge in their workout routine, a solid community to be apart of, and results that matter.

Irene Burch-Travis 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: One of the best decisions of my life! I was fairly new to the fitness world when I signed up in August 2020, and I hadn’t heard about MROC or obstacle course races until a friend told me about it. When I saw the gym I knew it was it, the place that would transform me and get me to my goals. Not only has MROC been helping me consistently reach my goals, I have gained an amazing fitness family that I happily drive 30 miles one way for (and at the height of training multiple times a day.) The coaches are amazing, and all my teammates/ family are great. The first day I meet Coach Mike I thought my initial goals were impossible, but he inspired me and Coach Mel, Coach B and all of MROC pushed and supported me.

Jazz Hands 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Positive: Communication , Professionalism , Quality 100% recommend MROC! I came to take the OCR Workshop to prep for my first race. The coaches are exceptional, super friendly, supportive and knowledgeable. I learned so much. I will definitely be going back and recommending to friends that are looking for a gym that offers ocr training and more. Thank you MROC!

Cristina Alvarado 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Too many good things to say can’t find the words to say it but here it goes! Being new to MROC was intimidating!! And I say that in the best way possible. Intimidating but EXCITING! From the outside looking in, it’s hardcore. But once you’re in you’re hooked! It may be tough and challenging, but all at your own pace. I specifically love that they take 3 days to personally train you in fundamental movements before group training. It doesn’t just stop there though, coach Brandon & coach Mel consistently throughout the classes watch and correct form/grip or even modify if needed. ALL of the coaches are knowledgeable, fun, and amazing to workout and mobilize with. Not only are the coaches great but the community within as well. Everyone is constantly encouraging and pushing each other. Never a dull moment at MROC! With that being said in the short amount of time I’ve joined the gym I feel stronger and faster, result city! #juice #easyday

Fantastic experience: I can’t say enough great things about MROC! All of the coaches, community and workout programming are unparalleled! I have been doing crossfit for quite a while and was looking to change things up and couldn’t be happier when I made the switch to MROC! The coaches, people you work out with everyday and programming make you excited to put that work in! Love this place and highly recommend it to anyone looking to be part of a great team, crush goals and have so much fun while doing it!

Sonia DEVOLDER 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: MROC: If you want to see results, this is the place you want to be. The Coaches are great, they teach you the correct and safe way to do the excerise, lifting weights and obstacle course, very encouraging. I'm lefting weight and doing obstacle that I wasn't sure I could do at my age. Wow !! I surprised my self and getting stronger everyday. THANK YOU MROC, THE COACHES, ALL THE POSITIVE PEOPLE. LOVE THIS PLACE

Yvonne Martin 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I can’t say enough good things about MROC training facility. The training center has excellent equipment and challenging obstacles. You can tell the owners take pride in their facility and their excellence shows in the coaches that they have coaching their members. Coach Brandon and Mel are extremely helpful and knowledgeable. The design of the workouts and the way the coaches teach proper technique and body mechanics really helped me as I worked on my fitness goals. Coach Brandon helped me to work on mobility as well as pushed me to strive for my personal best at every workout. The atmosphere of the gym is so positive and the attitude of the members are encouraging and inviting. I recommend this gym for all fitness levels. They will help you to meet your fitness goals and you’ll meet some awesome people!

Braden Tierney 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: MROC is an astounding place to achieve your fitness goals, whatever they may be. There is so much buy-in from an incredibly accomplished coaching team; they put in a staggering amount of effort to design challenging and varied group 35-45 minute workouts that can be catered to individual fitness levels. Whatever your fitness goal, (e.g. competing in endurance races, losing weight) the coaches will make sure you specify it so they can help you reach it. Workouts rotate every 6 weeks and contain a mix of cardio (e.g. hill repeats), obstacle (e.g. monkey bars), and strength-based (e.g. squats and cleans) exercises, ensuring that you will advance all aspects of your fitness. The sheer amount of certifications and training the coaches have results in a strong focus on working out effectively and safely (i.e. with proper lifting form). I am always impressed by the detailed, individual attention I receive during a group class with ~20 people. Finally, the MROC community cannot be overlooked -- the people here are more than "gym buddies:" by joining this group you'll inevitably form close friendships that extend well beyond the gym. I cannot recommend MROC enough.

Jane Doe 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I can not say enough good things about this business or the employees. I love the gym, I love to train, more so, I love to see results. Ok, done, I am already feeling incredibly good getting back into shape here. But that's not really brag worthy. I walk in and literally EVERYONE is smiling, sweating, and motivating the people around them. The vibes at MROC are so good, it's hard NOT to push yourself and believe in yourself when the coaches and others training outwardly believe in you. Plus, you have people with incredible credentials right there to help you meet your goals. The owner has gone out of his way to film short videos to help you recover at home, there are guided meal challenges, if you like competitive races (Spartan, Tough Mulder, etc) you are in a gym full of people who want to do them with you, if like to lift heavy weights they do that too, even runners are there getting there sweat on. Forget the traditional gym, come join me at MROC.

Vera Stepina 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I found MROC on Google in 2016. I completed my first Spartan race and it was obvious I was lacking many skills necessary to participate in obstacle course races. I attended Saturday OCR bootcamps until Oct of 2020 when I joined the gym on a full membership. MROC coaches are very experienced and knowledgeable in strength training, running and obstacle course skills. They always challenge us to push harder while making sure we have a good form. MROC offers regular nutrition challenges and workshops as well as mobility classes to encourage us to take care of our bodies beyond the workouts. Our gymfam is very friendly and we all have each other’s backs, in the gym and outside of it. I highly recommend joining MROC if you are looking to challenge yourself and learn how to properly exercise and get stronger and faster, all while having fun with some awesome people.

James Vandergriff 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I found this place on google, looking for any gym in the San Diego area that had anything similar to what you would experience at a Spartan Race. MROC 100% exceeded my expectations. I can go on all day about how the coaches sincerely care about your success.. whatever that might mean for you. But it's more than just an obstacle gym.. they have every piece of equipment you could imagine to get a great workout in. All the toys!! I'm very grateful I found MROC and look forward to being a part of the friendly community.

elmira pakkhah 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: One of the best decisions of my life becoming a member at MROC. This place is my second home. Friendly members, very knowledgeable, experienced, professional Excellent trainers. I joined MROC back in Feb 2019. Since the time I started my membership, my running has been improved, I also had learned how to tackle obstacles and I managed to do my first Spartan race back in Jan 2020. I am extremely happy with my experience. I recommend this Crossfit Training Center to everyone

christina sharp 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: You won’t find stair masters, treadmills and all of the other standard machines that enable you to approach fitness as another cog in a wheel of countless bodies in a Big Box gym environment. The machine at MROC is you. Add in the monkey bars, walls, tires, hammers, kegs, ropes, slack lines, and rings and what you get is a workout that is super fun and highly effective. The coaches are fantastic instructors and highly supportive. They make you feel like a million bucks (athletically) while simultaneously kicking your A$$. Fantastic people, fantastic community. By far the best investment I’ve ever made in my health.

Fantastic experience: I love, love LOVE this gym! The environment is competitive yet friendly, pushing each other to achieve what was otherwise thought to be impossible. The coaches are top notch, they watch form carefully to ensure maximum results while reducing the chance of injury and are always encouraging to push each member to their individual ability. The gym and workouts are designed to be mostly outdoor so we can take advantage of the fresh air and surrounding hills, enjoying the beautiful California weather and setting MROC apart from any other gym I’ve seen.

Ty McIntee 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: MROC has been a saving grace! I just joined this gym three months ago after so many years of not having a consistent workout regimen, running a mile or playing on jungle gyms. The first time I walked in the gym, I felt the magic. After my first three months of working out here, I feel the difference in every single aspect of my life. The coaches work with you to develop individualized workout plans/fitness goals, develop action plans to make your goals achievable and push you to show up for yourself the whole way. The workouts are fun, the other members are SO encouraging and motivating and you're given the space to carve out your best self. So why haven't you signed up yet? Come and Spartan up with us!

Jodi Willett 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: I was not sure what to except when I decide to join MROC 2 years ago. I was very out of shape and had never done any obstacle course training. All I can say is WOW! This has been the best decision I have ever made! Not only is MROC fun but I t’s like having a second family! A fit family that you can go run with or say I’ll meet you at the gym. The coaches are so attentive and caring and know everyone on a personal level. They know your strengths and weaknesses as well as how to motivate you to get better with each class you take! I can not recommend this gym enough! Make the call talk to a coach and get in the gym you will not regret it! MROC is definitely the best choice when you are looking for a great workout a safe environment and new friends! Come join the family at our fantastic gym!

Jordan Woods 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: While I have always been active I really got into fitness about 7 years ago. It started with home videos like Insanity and outdoor activities such as running biking and paddle boarding. As I got older, my responsibilities shifted and my time for these activities became scarce. As a way to prioritize my fitness (and to get out of the house), I’ve tried several gyms in North County over the past few years. First was Orange Theory which provided a great indoor cardio workout. Their tread mills and rowers are great but I quickly maxed out the weights that were available for lifting. Also while I liked many of coaches I found them cheering me on instead of helping me improve my technique to achieve my goals. As I wanted to become stronger, I then joined a box gym. With a focus heavy lifting, I enjoyed the wide variety of equipment but often found myself spending 1.5-2 hours at the gym as I was unsure what to do each day. Then I found MROC.... For me, MROC has been a great balance of cardio, weight lifting and functional fitness. The classes are small and coaches do a great job of motivating while still correcting technique. Over the past year I have become stronger and better conditioned but more importantly, I have become a better athlete! This is because MROC teaches the “why”behind everything they do. Since joining, I have learned about Olympic lifting, trail running, obstacle course racing and more. In addition to being a better athlete, MROC also offers classes on diet, mobility and running that help with performance, recovery and injury prevention. Another thing I like about MROC is the bench mark week that occur every quarter. These workouts are the same each quarter giving you the opportunity to recognize your improvements first hand and more imperially set goals for the next quarter. Lastly, while the gym is great the coaches and members are what make it special. From my first day there the entire gym has gone out of its way to make me feel like a part of the community. Whether you are the strongest or weakest, fastest or slowest everybody is there to support and cheer you on. Whether you are looking to race your first Spartan, become a better athlete or just get in shape and have fun MROC has something that you will enjoy and a community that will support you along the way.

Fantastic experience: There are so many great things to say about this MROC community. Fantastic coaches who support you, challenge you and help you reach your goals. Each class I attend, there is support and friendliness from fellow members. I love the diversity of the workouts, as each day is different. Significant focus on using the right form so that you are as efficient as possible. Throughout a normal week, workouts will hit cardio, weights and obstacles. Finally, the owner (Mike) sets a great example for all to follow. I've only been a member for 3 months, and I already know it's a place I want to be for the long run.

Fantastic experience: THE PREMIER gym in North County if you want top quality coaches and personalized training for superior functional fitness. Mike and his crew specialize in getting people ready for Spartan races but their support has much more to offer. They help members with goal setting, nutrition, running techniques, and have the energy to keep you motivated to meet your goals. Highly recommended for all ages.

Fantastic experience: MROC is more than a training facility, it's a place to transform your life. I joined in 2015 when I decided to make changes to improve my physical health and learn from professional coaches who would help me reach the goals I had in mind. Over three years later, I'm still a member continuing to build on each new level of fitness and skills. I've lost over 50 lbs, learned how to eat properly, and train like an athlete if I want to win competitions or just live a healthy lifestyle. The coaching staff brings different backgrounds and levels of expertise that push all members to reach levels and skillsets never thought possible. This year alone, I've started taking an intro ninja class and have learned moves that make me feel ready for regional competitions. Athletes of all ages and all skillsets are welcome and the workouts are designed for each individual to push their limits without pressure to keep up with experienced athletes. All the members are extremely encouraging as we all remember Day 1 at MROC. It's more than just a training facility, it's a family.
