Palo Alto Fit

Palo Alto Fit is a great gym with a welcoming atmosphere and quality equipment. The facility is clean, well-maintained, and has everything needed for a solid workout, whether you're focused on strength training or general fitness. The staff are friendly and helpful, and the gym never feels overly crowded. A great place to stay consistent with your fitness goals.

I’ve been working out at Palo Alto Fit for almost three years, and joining was easily the best decision I’ve ever made. While the gym has top-notch facilities, what really sets it apart is the incredible team. The owner, Nina, is incredibly welcoming to all the clients, and the entire training staff is highly professional. I’m especially grateful for my trainers, Ale and Jason. They always listen to my goals and tailor specific programs to my needs. Beyond that, they make every session incredibly enjoyable, which has made me truly love working out here. Thanks to their guidance, I’ve seen an amazing transformation in my body and feel healthier than ever. I highly recommend Palo Alto Fit to anyone looking to elevate their fitness journey!

Working with Zade at Palo Alto Fit has been a gift. He is the absolute best. I came in already working out daily and needed a coach who could match my drive while keeping my programming sharp, intentional, and effective. Zade hyper-customizes every single workout, tailoring our strength and dynamic plyometric sessions specifically for skiing performance and real-world athletic power. His deep knowledge of the body and movement mechanics is evident in every set. As I’ve been navigating a knee tweak, he’s been incredible about checking in, making smart adjustments on the fly, and keeping me training hard while giving my joints the exact recovery they need. I'm already seeing fantastic results in my body composition and strength, and I couldn't recommend him more if you want a trainer who is genuinely invested in your athletic goals.

I began working out at Palo Alto fit after finding other campus options crowded and not fitting my personal fitness desires. From the start Palo Alto has been attentive and organized in helping me achieve my fitness goals. I have been working with Sierra for the past several months and could not be happier with the programs that she creates and her open communication. She is knowledgeable, dedicated, and responsive to feedback around creating programs and mid-workout adjustments. I really enjoy my workouts at PA Fit and the sense of community that the gym has provided!

I've been training at Palo Alto Fit for almost a year now and I love the results I'm seeing. I had a previous personal training experience that was lackluster and left me with an impression that 1:1 training wasn't worth the money or effort. [My previous personal training gym is in Menlo Park and starts with an "A" (>_<).] Ok, back to what I was saying. PAF has really changed my view of personal training. A real comparison is with the previous gym, I never saw my trainer track my reps and weight count (I didn't know better). Here, at PAF, my trainer tracks all of that so I'm actually making progress when he increases my reps or weights. He knows what I did last week vs what we should do this week. In addition, they also change the regimen every 4 weeks so you don't get bored of doing the same machines, movements etc. At the 4 week interval, they also do a dexa scan of so you can see your muscle mass in arms, legs and core and body fat, etc etc. I actually take a picture of the printout and I can see how my body has progresses month to month. Since I've had an elbow surgery and sometimes knee issue, I found that this gym is worthwhile because the trainers know how to modify the workout so you don't trigger any past injuries. I feel that's really important to have a knowledgeable trainer who understands the body composition rather than a person who just tells you how to lift weights. The gym itself is clean and parking is easy. There's a shower and lockers like most gyms. The app they use makes it easy for me to manage my own schedule but they have a concierge team to do that for you if you wish. The owner Nina is nice. You can tell she really watches over all her trainers like a family.
