Pure Form PFT - Stockton

Carl at Pure Form is great. I signed my mother up for some one on one sessions to try and get her out of a funk, partially from the isolation resulting from COVID. Carl made the process super easy and really took care of everything including my mom. Prices are very reasonable and it's really nice to see the owner so involved with every aspect of the business.My mother just finished her first 12 sessions and she looks and feels better, she seems really upbeat and thinks she's ready to go off on her own. I would love for her to continue one-on-one training at Pure Form or to get involved with the small group sessions, but for now at least, we're going to get her back into her regular gym and see where things go from there.

I'm constantly challenged by the workouts and the coaches, but supported and motivated. The members are probably the nicest group of people you'll ever meet and full of positive energy. Trash the excuses and try it out. You will not be disappointed.

So I normally like the 1:1 instruction so I was unsure how this group training would go but i have to say I loved it. I started with the 28 day accountability challenge with coach Carl and it was the best coaching. Using the app and having to submit pictures of my food daily keep me accountable to myself and coach Carl. i knew that if I was falling off I could be honest with him when I messaged and checked in daily. I've stuck with the accountability. So the classes are the best and give you a great workout. I've taken bootcamp classes before but what I like about PFT is that you warm up and stretch out at the end. So important and for me coming off a back injury I could appreciate this. During my first workout Coach Carl remembered my back issue and gave me a tip to adjust that would put less strain on my back. Coach Tara is awesome And so is coach Jana. She watches and corrects form. Trust me when I say you want a coach that will do this so you don't end up hurt. And this isn't about just getting through the workout, it's about form and fitness. You just feel really good working out with others who are cheering you on and saying, "good job" at the end. Needless to say after 28 days, I signed up to continue. If you are looking for a great place to burn calories, feel supported, and be challenged, this is the place for you. Just try it and you can decide for yourself.

I really love this gym! It's small group classes offered at a variety of times, and the music is always on point. The trainers really take their time to make sure everyone is doing their best and keeping good form, as well as encouraging us not to give up! The workouts are hard but not impossible, and they last 45mins! I've been consistent only a few weeks but I feel myself getting stronger and better each day! I go to the noon class, and everyone has been friendly. I love Pure Form so much more than the "CrossFit" concept which I dreaded. Now, I look forward to going to the gym! Workouts change each day and are pretty intense-keeps me on my toes! I highly recommend you try out Pure Form!

This is more than a gym, it's a positive, motivating, family oriented environment. I've been to several gyms and have not experienced the level of motivation that you get from PFT trainers . They push you to do your very best each time which makes you wanting to come back for more. I have lost 12 lbs since joining and know that without the support I would not have been that successful. The workouts vary from day to day and month to month with the use of resistive equipment and/or body weight. The environment is clean and the equipment is comfortable. I can't think of any other place I'd rather be to met my fitness and overall health goals!!

Great small gym with a personal trainer guiding you through the 45 minute workout. They will make you sweat. Price is reasonable. Trainers seem to know what they are doing. Unfortunately I wont be in town to experience the full workout routine, but the small amount of time I have been here is enough to say that it is worth going here. Give this place a try!

I came here just to try this out and it's amazing. The trainers and everyone around are very motivating and they will give you encouragement as well as tell you how to adjust to have better form. I never felt insecure being here. I usually do Pilates or HIIT at home, but this was a shock to my system. Highly recommend and I hope to be back soon!

Pure Form Fitness Training is a great place for anyone of all skill levels.At first I was a bit skeptical when I first signed up for the group classes and walked in on the first day. Looking around at the other members in my group (not meaning to sound conceited) but I thought the workout was going to be a breeze. Boy was I wrong. It was one of the most intense workouts I've had; and at the end of the first session, I was lying on the sidewalk out side the gym for at least 15 minutes before I event felt comfortable to attempt to drive home.Now, don't be intimidated by my experience. The neat thing about the workout is you put as much into it as you want. You determine how hard you want to push yourself. As un-intuitive as it seems, this is a "one-size-fits-all" workout that really works for EVERYONE. Trust me.The only down-side of this training center is the hours. The hours were very limited and I wasn't sure how often I would be able to make it with my busy and varied schedule as a grad student. However, coming in January, I heard Carl ("THE" trainer) is going to be increasing the hours!Finally, Carl "THE" trainer is great. He is very encouraging and knowledgeable. He even sends out occasional emails with tips and reminders on eating healthy and other fitness tips. I really look forward to those emails as well and forward them to several of my friends!Overall, a great work out program. I highly recommend it.

I will be starting the following week but this review is based solely on management. I've called and left messages for not only Carl but to Ryan as well regarding how to signup. I even went out of my way to contact Ryan on his PFT Instagram and yet no response. It's been almost two weeks and I'm curious as to how this is getting overlooked. Thank goodness for today, I was able to spot Carl at some type of event he was holding and he questioned whether I even left a message and later saw the voicemail I left for him and apologized for the mishap. I'm hoping they are able to accommodate me for the next 6 weeks over this issue. The only reason I am still signing up are based on the reviews of the last clienteles: people are getting stronger and learning proper form. And to be frank, I believe customer service is a huge part of any business' review. As upset as I am to dock a couple of stars down, I believe everything I am speaking about is very credible and worth a mention: it wasn't fair for me to get overlooked that many times by two different people and two different forms of communication for almost two weeks.So of course this isn't the end of my review, updates to come regarding the actual classes (and results!). :]

Coming from one entering into the stage of life known by many as the "declining years" and also from one who despises the whole notion of exercise in its various physical forms, I called CARL THE TRAINER kicking and screaming after several of my professional colleagues kept at me to do so. I have long been the sort who would workout only when there was nothing else to do and only when I could make it fit into my life regimen. Carl has changed all that with great attitude, superb advice, excellent background in fitness and all-around support. I hate having to occasionally miss our sessions, be they private or semi-private or any of his classes, simply because I feel so much better after every encounter with this monstrous beast. I cannot say enough good stuff....
