The Sandlot

Experiencia fantástica: From day one I felt so welcomed by EVERYONE. Perfect gym for all levels of individuals wanting to improve their well-being. Trent and the team ensure proper technique for you to crush goals!

Experiencia fantástica: Awesome Gym in the Des Moines area! I was in town for work and dropped in for a quick workout. The community was extremely welcoming and coach Trenton was exceptionally knowledgeable. If you’re looking for a raw gym feel with some major energy, this is the gym for you!

Experiencia fantástica: The best community and training! I worked out here all summer and met some amazing people through it. The workouts push you mentally, and physically!! Nothing but amazing things to say about the coaching and atmosphere :)

Experiencia fantástica: I started training at the Sandlot last year in June and have loved it ever since. I never touched a barbell before coming to the Sandlot. I have grown so much since then, not only in strength but also in confidence. Trent, the owner and main coach, has taught me so much about health and fitness. He has become our friend and even put a special workout together for my husband and his groomsmen on our wedding day morning! You really feel like part of a family here. Highly recommend trying it out!

Experiencia fantástica: Great community environment with trainers who know how to safely and effectively progress individuals regardless of starting point!

Experiencia fantástica: Coach T is the man, and has a deep passion for what he does, and his clients in general. If you are trying to take your training to the next level, or want to work on perfecting your form on some lifts this is the place to be!

Experiencia fantástica: Absolutely love everything about this place. From day one, I have felt welcomed and supported by everyone involved. So thankful I found another place to call home. Encourage everyone to give it a go!

Experiencia fantástica: I've been working out there for nearly 2 years. The staff is welcoming, supportive, and encouraging. The gym has a nice community environment. Coach T gives individual attention and provides good guidance on lifting form and technique. You can expect to do power cleans, squats, deadlifts, and other functional movements. Every day's class is a little different with the dumbbells, rowers, bikes, ski machines, jump ropes, and even a few rope climbs. I like that all the workouts are challenging without being intimidating as they're all modifiable based on my skill level.

Experiencia fantástica: Sandlot is the place to be if you are in Des Moines or visiting Des Moines. Trent is just awesome.

Experiencia fantástica: Best local gym around the Des Moines area! Trent is the man and will structure workouts to meet your goals/needs. Great community to be around and grow with!

Experiencia fantástica: The Sandlot is by far my favorite fitness facility I have ever belonged to. My fitness journey has spanned over many years and evolved many different ways. Hands down I’ve had the most measurable changes being a member here. Not only are the workouts effective and the trainers amazing, the community here is phenomenal. Trent has created an amazing culture and is one of, if not THE, best trainers I’ve ever worked with. Top shelf all the way!! ⭐️

Experiencia fantástica: A year ago I joined the sandlot and it’s changed how I look at fitness forever. Trent promotes community and fitness that’s functional. The perfect gym for anyone and everyone!

Experiencia fantástica: I have been working with Trenton for almost two years. The gym has never been a place I loved. I don’t look, eat, or act like others I have seen at larger gyms. This always made me feel intimidated. Trenton and the Sandlot community and allowed me to work at my pace. I have improvements and new PRs in all of my lifts. Improved my overall conditioning. I now enjoy my gym time. Trenton also works to help me increase my mobility which is something I have award struggles with. As I have rehabbed a broken elbow and fixed back issues, he never let me stop. He adjusted and worked with me. Encouraging and pushing for improvement along the way. Because of this community I am healthier both physically and mentally.

Experiencia fantástica: Positive: Communication , Professionalism , Quality

Experiencia fantástica: Positive: Communication , Professionalism , Quality Excellent gym with options for all ages and athletic ability. Trent (owner) is caring, educated and the best motivator! Class size is not too large and the attention to detail and form is much appreciated! Best gym, with the best vibe and tribe in my opinion!

Experiencia fantástica: The Sandlot is truly one of a kind. I was terrified to try it out and had talked about it for a year before I actually stepped foot in the door. I was always obese and had lost a huge amount of weight. I wanted to fit into a gym and build muscle but don’t have the “gym” physique and have never been an athletic guy. The moment I walked in the door, I knew it was the best decision of my life. Coach T welcomed me with so much positivity and encouragement that I knew I would be ok. I was quickly introduced to the Sandlot family and the encouragement received was unexplainable. Many days felt like I couldn’t do the workout but I survived. I have amazed myself in so many ways. Words can’t explain what the Sandlot, the Sandlot family, an Coach Trenton mean to me. Deserves way more than 5 stars for sure!

Experiencia fantástica: Fun atmosphere- it’s a community with wide range of age and athletic ability. Trent’s patient and a good teacher. I always look forward to going to the sandlot.

Experiencia fantástica: I've been training at The Sandlot since March 2019. Trent has significantly improved how I approach my daily workouts. I've made more progress across the board (strength, endurance, and mobility) during these past 18 months than ever before. The space is always organized and well-maintained, convenient location, priced correctly, and a welcoming community. Would recommend to anyone looking for a change of pace and solid guidance from a coach who truly cares.

Experiencia fantástica: I loved my experience with training at the Sandlot. The teamwork atmosphere and coaching make it a fun place to workout! The workouts will push you to challenge yourself to new levels!

Experiencia fantástica: Trenton and Garryson are great coaches and able to teach the correct and effective movements for the workouts. They are really attentive and the class atmosphere is fun! Definitely recommend for beginners, advanced Crossfit athletes, or an out-of-town drop-in.
