Westside Strength & Conditioning

Experiencia fantástica: I just attended Westside Strength & Conditioning for the first time and I was extremely happy with my experience. First of all, when I signed up online I was asked if I had any previous injuries which I appreciated due to my low back injury history. I attended a small group session of 10 people. Sarah led the class and did an amazing job modifying exercises for me based on my injury history. She is very knowledgable. It felt like my own personal training session. And she did this with others in the class as well. I was never pressured into doing something I couldn't handle. I was able to challenge myself without fear of getting hurt again. Everyone went at their own pace but Sarah did a great job encouraging and coaching everyone in the class to get the most out of it. And everyone in the class was very nice and welcoming. Just an awesome atmosphere all around. If you're intimidated by group fitness for any reason, you can confidently go here and feel comfortable and get a great workout with a great group of people. I would give 6 stars if I could!

Experiencia fantástica: A fun and inviting atmosphere. As somebody who has been attending classes for 2+ years, I really appreciate Calvin’s ability to keep the workouts fresh and fun. But perhaps the most impressive aspect of this gym is the sense Calvin really cares about your well-being. Despite being a group exercise class, the personalized attention we receive to prevent injury and get the most out of our class is top notch.

Experiencia fantástica: If you want great results, while learning and having a variety of fun and changing workouts, there is no better gym than Westside!

Experiencia fantástica: I have been working out at WSC for over 4 years now and I can say and it is the best place to go no matter your goals. They will set you up with a personalized plan to meet your needs in a friendly and supportive environment. Great for people of all ages and physical capabilities, I much prefer the personalized training programs and family atmosphere you get at WSC over the larger gyms.

Experiencia fantástica: Great gym. Workouts are constantly changing. High energy staff makes it fun.

Experiencia fantástica: Westside is hands down the best gym in the area. Calvin and Sarah truly care about you and what you are getting from your workouts. They are always upbeat and encouraging to get you through the toughest workouts!!

Experiencia fantástica: I have been with Westside Strength & Conditioning for almost 3 years and consider everyone here family. The workouts are fun, challenging and always changing. If you are looking for a new gym with trainers and friends to support you in your journey to a healthier lifestyle, check out Westside Strength & Conditioning!

Experiencia fantástica: The trainers at Westside are amazing. They are very patient and teach you proper form. The other people that go to the classes are happy, encouraging and so fun to be around; it makes working out enjoyable!

Experiencia fantástica: Been going to Westside for 2 years now. I’m healthier and stronger functionally, at 41, then I’ve been in most of my adult life. The trainers are encouraging, knowledgeable and want to see you succeed. We’re lucky to have such great local option.

Experiencia fantástica: I can't say enough good things about this place. I have always liked group workout classes but never found anything that was mostly focused on weightlifting so this was right up my alley. I have been going for about 4 weeks now and I am still burning around 800 calories per workout. It is pretty amazing. This is the only gym I have seen that gives you a actual trial, they give you a 10 day free trial. Most gyms only give you a day or two which is no enough to determine if you are going to like it or not. I can guarantee if you are a fan of strength training you will be hooked after your trail. This is the best workout I have ever had and I highly recommend you try it out.

Experiencia fantástica: Sarah and Calvin are both great trainers. I have been working with Sarah for quite some time now, and she is a great encourager even when I don't want to show up or work out. They are friendly, flexible and knowledgable. I love their easy going style and welcoming for new comers. Their pricing is reasonable and worth the cost for fit trainers that care about their work. And it's always a fun time, encouraging atmosphere.

Experiencia fantástica: I was a member here for 1.5+ years and I can honestly say it was one of the best investments I have ever made. Super friendly staff who know you on a first name basis. They are also accommodating if you have any physical injuries/limitations. Most importantly, the trainers really put emphasis on maintaining good form and building mind-muscle connection. Class size can range depending on the attendance but the team atmosphere is fun either way. If you are uncertain about joining I say go for it, you won't regret it! I started with no weight training experience and I've seen soo much results over my time here!

Experiencia fantástica: Right around this time last year I was asking friends for gym recommendations. A few pointed me to Westside Strength & Conditioning and I haven’t looked back since! I feel stronger than ever and actually look forward to getting my rear end kicked every morning by Calvin, Jessica, and Sarah. If you’re looking for a smaller gym setting that will challenge you, where there are no gimmicks, and you’re trained by certified personal trainers, Westside is where you need to go!

Experiencia fantástica: Overall the best gym experience I have ever had. The staff are supportive, knowledgeable and kind. I would recommend for all fitness levels.

Experiencia fantástica: Calvin and Sarah have a great gym. I had a trial month thanks to Groupon and didn't hesitate to sign up for the next year.

Experiencia fantástica: Urbandale was missing something until Westside moved in. Calvin and his trainers really take a personal stake in your wellness and goals. I don't feel judged when I walk into the gym and I appreciate the time this place puts into adapting my workouts for my struggles and strengths. I love the small class size and the programming changes often. I have mixed in a few personal training sessions with Calvin and Sarah, which have really helped educate me on proper form and keep me accountable with my crazy schedule. Love the conditioning classes with Jess. This is a great place and I recommend it to everyone!

Experiencia fantástica: Best Gym in the Des Moines Metro! I've been working with Calvin for 4 years now and have never experienced a trainer who loves what he does more than him and who is dedicated to people like he is. I was a college athlete and these work outs take me back to those days. Stop in and see for yourself! You won't be disappointed!
