Groundwork Fitness

Experiencia fantástica: This place is in central downtown Long Beach but inside, it totally has a New York/Brooklyn swagger. I had a great experience here! It's two floors, narrow space but certainly enough room to get a dynamic circuit going. The space is multifunctional and accommodates a variety of training setups. They emphasize "functional training" here so it's not the monotonous style of workouts you'd get at a regular gym or even a cross fit style gym. Gio is a total gem! She's got high energy, is very welcoming, and is passionate about what she' does. Free first class! And free 2 hour parking in the lot right across the street. Go visit!

Experiencia fantástica: Giovanna Ferraro runs the best Long Beach gym! If you are looking for the most impactful, motivating personal training or group fitness sessions, then Groundwork Fitness is the best place to go. Gio has the amazing ability to make you push yourself to achieve your fitness goals, whatever they may be. Groundwork Fitness caters to all fitness levels and makes you feel like you are part of a fitness family. It has been one of the best decisions I've made for the new year. I have been a part of other gyms and fitness programs, but have left after I felt like I was just another number. Gio's personal attention captivates you and makes you feel great inside and out.

Experiencia fantástica: Geo is an awesome positive person who has time and live for so many

Experiencia fantástica: I've never been here but I just saw you on NBC4.. Thank you Thank you for hearing our cry in the midst of your pain..EMPATHY

Experiencia fantástica: Gio is awesome. She brings a passion and a sense of fun to the workouts that ya just can't find anywhere else. I really appreciate how she helps me to make an exercise harder or easier to fit my personal fitness needs. Definitely worth checking out!

Experiencia fantástica: Love this place

Experiencia fantástica: If it is fitness you really seek, then you must talk with Gio. Well worth the extra 30 yard walk from a chain. Comfortable area for one on one classes as well as 20 size group. I'll be back in November to work with them again!

Experiencia fantástica: I love Groundwork Fitness! Gio is the best. Don't go to those chain gyms, get fit with a Long Beach local that cares about you and your community.

Experiencia fantástica: Best circuit training around! These workouts will really challenge you. I've lost nearly 90 lbs in a little over a year and this gym is a huge part of it.

Experiencia fantástica: The trainers and clients are all great. It's a good workout with good people.

Experiencia fantástica: Best gym in long beach

Experiencia fantástica: Incredible Place to get back in the routine of working out. Very knowledgeable staff and the experience is new, fun, and full of variety. Excellent job Gio for making fitness Fun!!

Experiencia fantástica: Groundwork Fitness is awesome! The trainer's are willing to help you reach your goals and the staff is nice.

Experiencia fantástica: Groundwork Fitness was highly recommended to me and it didn't disappoint. When I walked in the owner Gio was there to show me around and explain all the personal training and group training options. How many gyms give that kind of service?! Group classes are taught by Gio herself and are small enough so everyone gets the attention they need. She encourages you to pace yourself and be mindful of your own body - her personal attention to all aspects of the space, the routine and the clients make the real difference from other corporate gyms. She promotes fitness, fun and family. An excellent gym and proud to have in here in Long Beach.

Experiencia fantástica: Being a runner for most of my life, I've been able to maintain a good level of fitness. Or so I thought. I've had my share of big gym memberships in the past and the only time I ever stepped foot in the facility was when I had signed up! I didn't know how to work out so I just avoided ever going. That whole view on working out at a gym changed the moment I took my first (FREE!) group workout class at Groundwork Fitness. And now this little Long Beach gym has become like a fitness family to me. The personal trainer and gym owner, Gio, is a great motivator, not only in fitness but in the community and in life. I jumped right into it and felt very welcomed. It doesn't matter what level of fitness you are, you work with what works for yourself. I am now realizing the strength and power I can gain from cross training and that working with weights doesn't always mean I'll be bulking up. I love the group sessions because I can unhinge for an hour and let it all out with the guidance of someone who really knows what she's doing. Give Groundwork Fitness a try and give Gio a high five!

Experiencia fantástica: Groundwork Fitness in Downtown Long Beach is such a great fitness center. I'm a beginner and Gio made me feel so comfortable. The gym really is inclusive to all levels and the environment is so friendly. I tried personal training at first and now do the group fitness classes. It's better than a boot camp, the circuit training style keeps it positive and I never get bored. The clients are also welcoming and friendly. I highly recommend this gym as I'm getting stronger and can now keep up with the more advanced clients. Thank you Gio and Keep LBC Fit!

Experiencia fantástica: This is the best spot for personal training in the Long Beach area! Even for someone like me who hasn't worked out in years. Giovanna lets you go at your own pace yet pushes you to achieve your fitness goals at the same time. The crowd is always friendly and welcoming and supportive of each other. A beautiful warm space with lots of brick and wood. I leave motivated and energized to continue my day!!
