Self Made Training Facility Long Beach | Personal Fitness Center Reviews

I recently started going to this gym and so far I love it. The parking structure is right next to the building making it convenient. From the moment you walk it, the atmosphere drives you feel motivated. Great staff and the music's nice. I personally trained with one of their trainers named Caleb Bailey. He knows a lot about nutrition and how to target muscle groups. He even made a nutrition plan for my desired goal. I'm finally starting to see results! He not only makes you feel welcomed but, he never makes you feel bad about yourself. He's that gym bro that you want training with you. There's also plenty of clean equipment not just for weightlifting but for combat sports as well. This gym has a lot of protein snacks and drinks. Overall, I love this gym and will continue training here with Caleb.

I’d like to start by saying I’ve trained with other trainers before, even other Self Made trainers, but Jordan is THE BEST!! I trained with Jordan Maybach for about 8 months and she was so motivational and encouraging. I can’t even describe the ways she’s helped me grow as a person, not just in her training, but her overall outlook on life and fitness. Watching her made me want to be better in all aspects of life. She helped me with form and what I should be doing in the gym. I am now comfortable walking into any commercial gym on my own and I know I’m making the most out of my workout. She provided guidance in nutrition and fitness, helping me reach my goals and has my body looking better than I could have ever imagined. She genuinely cares for her clients and wants to see them reach their full potential. I came in looking for a trainer and walked out with a friend. I could never fully repay her. It’s a great feeling.

I work with the most amazing trainer, Rudy! He’s helped me lose 30lbs in 6 months! My only take away from this whole experience is that he’s not shown as much as he deserves to be. If you look on self made Long Beach social media, he’s not shown as much as I would like, which I don’t find to be fair but I find him to be a hidden gem at this gym! If you’re looking to lean out, build muscle or even youth performance coaching, Rudy is your man!

Embarking on my fitness journey, I found myself adrift in a sea of conflicting advice and uninspiring workouts. However, my experience at the Self-Made Training Facility was nothing short of a lifesaver. From the moment I walked through the doors, I knew I had found my harbor. My trainer Sterling has been excellent at guiding me through the choppy waters of fitness with expertise and encouragement. He took the time to understand my goals, crafting a personalized roadmap to success. With his support, I regained my sense of direction and motivation. What truly sets Self-Made apart is their dedication to empowerment. Instead of simply telling me what to do, they equipped me with the knowledge and skills to navigate my own fitness journey. From proper form to nutritional guidance, I felt empowered to take control of my health. Thanks to Self-Made and Sterling, I'm not just achieving my fitness goals; I'm surpassing them. With their guidance, I've built strength, confidence, and resilience. I've discovered that the journey to self-improvement is not always smooth sailing, but with the right support, anything is possible. If you're ready to chart your own course to fitness success, look no further than Self-Made Training Facility. Trust me, it's a voyage worth taking.

The gym itself is in DTLB, across from a free 2 hr parking garage. The facilities are clean, but they aren't a traditional gym where you pay a membership. You train with a trainer, which allows access to the gym. If you're not training with a trainer you are not allowed in. In a traditional gym you're paying the membership and a trainer, but you're only paying the trainers rates. I am someone who has tried it all. Juice cleanses, dieting, whatever you can think of I have tried. Couple this with being on fertility treatments for the past 3 years. I finally decided I needed to hire a personal trainer. I actually started with another trainer (who is no longer there) and then thankfully found Dustin. I'm someone who will start off great and then fall off at some point in dieting and exercise. Working out with Dustin has kept me accountable...although we've had many "Day 1s" mainly with my diet, he is changing my mindset on how I view both. Although the physical change is not there...yet...I can feel the change on the inside. I definitely recommend reaching out to him if you're looking for someone who is understanding and is supportive and can create a program that works for you.

An excellent trainer only gym means you don’t have to worry about rude crowds, inconsiderate machine hogs, or unprofessional attitudes You go to this gym to get results plain and simple. The gym has the best equipment in the industry with multiple sets of free weights, multiple machines, and a turf for cardio. You won’t find 300 treadmills here but you will find 4 different types with emphasis on HIIT, sprinting, long distance running, and plain Jane good ol running. I work with Noah Sharpes team specifically Dustin Powell who has worked with me for 3 months. Utilizing the inbody analysis I can not only see physical results in the mirror but know that my body fat percentage is dropping and my muscle density is increasing Don’t think twice about whether this gym is worth it because you won’t regret it

What an awesome gym! Clean, has everything for a great workout, even showers when you're done. It's a facility where local trainers train out of, so not crowded which is a major plus. Kinda hidden as signage is easily missed, but follow the directions and check them out!

Been coming here for the summer for the past two years. Without doubt, there are HUGE benefits that come with having a trainer to motivate you to consistently show up for yourself and improve. Shoutout Brandon Watson 🙏🏾 It can be intimidating because everyone is built like an action figure, but once you meet them everyone is incredibly supportive.

I’ve been training with Joe (Tenacious Behavior) for a while and appreciate the progress we’ve made. He’s improved my health and well-being substantially with great cardio & mobility exercises. He’s friendly, very supportive, but also great at pushing your limits. I highly recommend him. Do yourself a favor and train with Joe. He’ll get you to the best version of yourself.
