1st Place Fitness: Opinions
Fantastic experience: this place is INCREDIBLE.. everything i thought i knew about fitness, health, or my body has changed after my first visit here... I have had multiple small injuries that bothered me severely with discomfort but i was pushing through them with workouts and playing football. I did one workout with one of their coaches (Julian) and it was an eye opener for me after the workout and how great I felt after, but the intensity was something that was a different challenge that I wasn't quite used too but I absolutely loved. Julian was pushing me when I was struggling and helping me complete the workout, but most importantly he was coaching me on form and proper technique that I noticed a difference instantaneously during the workout. It was a game changer having someone with experience and wisdom showing me the proper techniques to promote health and stronger balanced muscles. He was able to correct me on almost all of the movements I was doing which of course being an athlete my entire life, I thought I was doing correctly.. boy was i wrong, the burns I felt with the corrections were incredible and made me realize I am not as strong as i thought.. HA! After the workout I was approached by Frank who essentially diagnosed my shoulder impingement within a minute of taking a look at me. he proceeded to do a deep tissue massage in the affected area and was able to tell me about my injury without me saying anything to him.... it was incredible, i have had about 45% mobility in my left shoulder before this and after 15 minutes of him working with my shoulder i had 95% mobility back... I literally got the chills because I had not felt this with my shoulder in over 6 months.. BEYOND impressed with that.. After i experienced that... (I took advantage of the knowledge that Frank has which by working out and being in sports for over 15 years he has been the most educated coach/instructor I have ever worked with) I informed him of my shin splints I have been dealing with for about 2 months.. he chuckled and said come see me tomorrow.. NEXT DAY he took the time out to work with me and told me he could help.. he did more than help, after a 1 hour session I was sprinting, and even jumping and stomping with ZERO pain. Before this I would hop out of bed and have throbbing pain in my front shin area. Having this treatment at a local gym I personally think is incredibly rare and I want to hit myself for not taking advantage of place like this sooner. 2 times I have been here and my body has taken MASSIVE steps to be not only healthier, but better for athletic performance. If you have had any issues, small or large injuries I have zero doubt that this gym and their group of coaches can fix you. This is a no brainer if you are trying to achieve any fitness goal. I have told my friends about this and they cannot believe it. Thank you Frank and Julian for taking care of me getting right! Cannot wait to continue this journey.
Fantastic experience: I had lower back issues from crossfit and wasn't really working out or doing much. After some convincing, Frank got me in there and loosened up my back and started slow on the workouts. It's really amazing how much he knows about the human body as I had been to physical therapy for 6 months(needling, exercise, massage) with little improvement and noticed improvement immediately with Frank. It's been over a year since I've went and my back still much better than before (don't think it will ever be 100% - thanks crossfit!) If it was closer I would go all the time but even so he gave me some really good tools for working out, unlocking my back and understanding my injury that I will use forever.
Fantastic experience: I love first place fit! They are super flexible around your schedule. I was nervous about joining a gym for the first time but they make you feel right at home and are so understanding! I highly recommend!!!
Fantastic experience: 1st Place Fitness literally changed my life . I am overweight and had a bad back issue that several chiro's and back specialist couldn't fix. Frank took a look on day 1 and was confident he could fix it. Well 3 weeks later my back is fixed and the pain is completely gone. I am also down 15 pounds in under a month and plan on losing a lot more. I was the typical guy who thought going to the gym to lift a couple days a week was all I needed. Wow was i wrong. The workouts here will test you and push you to your limits. Frank and Juice will coach you through the workout and make sure you are doing it safely and correctly. So far I cannot say enough about this place and exited to see my results.
Fantastic experience: If your goal is to simply walk in the door, curl a couple dumbbells, maybe do some "crunches," post selfies, the usual workout you get from a trainer at a box gym, this isn't the place for you. Frankie will make you work, but you will walk out feeling stronger, happier and more confident than when you came in. He gives you results. Part of his program includes personalized, periodic fitness tests to track your progress. I love these because not only do they show you how you're progressing but also any areas you might want to focus on. He cares about each of his clients and is just as involved in your health journey as you are. 1st Place Fit is where you want to be.
Fantastic experience: Gained a quick 20 pounds of muscle. The Meal plan was perfect
Fantastic experience: Great training, helped me put on 15+ pounds of muscle fast. Intense workout sessions that made me faster and stronger for football!
Fantastic experience: I have always been fairly fit and then I had babies. I got right into working out after my second and dropped a little weight, but just wasn’t get the results I wanted. My husband and I signed up and work out together now and in 2.5 months I’ve dropped 8% body fat, and can see and feel a huge difference in myself! My husband stopped going to the regular gym saying he gets a more well rounded workout with Frankie, and is in the best shape he has ever been in. We both loving being clients here!!

Fantastic experience: I've lost over 50 pounds at 1st Place Fit. No one offers what you get here for the price. Frankie cares about everyone that steps into the gym. You get quality instruction, challenging workouts, spot on meal plans, mental toughness, and confidence in yourself. I wish I could give a 20 star rating.
Fantastic experience: Best trainer I've ever had!
