After exercising there for several months, I began experiencing a surge of restless leg syndrome. After speaking to my doctor, he suggested that I cut down on my physical activity. I wasn't saddened by the doctor's orders because I hadn't lost any weight and seem not to get any help with any of the equipment. I began a walking regiment and lost 10 lb. I sent the owner a letter asking for my second year which I paid in full refunded. It's been over a week and I've not received a phone call or an email stating why I have not received my second year refund. I'm okay with him keeping the current year

Excellent gym! While I believe most of their clientelle are fitness classes and their mobile gym, they accommodate more heavy lifters like myself. With dumbbells that go beyond 100 lbs and being both free weight friendly (powercage, many barbells, dumbbells, ez grip, etc) and plenty of machines for all muscle groups, I found it to be ideal for when I wanted to heavy lift and max out, while also allowing me to have days of negatives on the machines. Cliff even accommodated me by getting a few 5 lbs and 2.5 lbs so I could add small increments in my lifts. Myself going at 8pm and beyond, it felt like

When you come to EXSSFIT the dynamics of training changes. The trainers are awesome and above reproach. Cliff and Kurtis have a team dynamics approach that feeds into their individual personal trainer style and reflects in, on, about their clients health and goals they want to reach. They train and challenge you to bring out the goals you want and the ones that you did not know you wanted.

I’ll probably never love going to the gym but this place is a very strong like. Cliff is really great at pushing you farther than you think you can go without being a domineering tyrant that won’t listen. He’ll gladly modify exercises when needed but won’t let you skate by if you really can do it.
The gym itself is very clean and well-equipped. Membership is limited so you never feel crowded out even during peak times. The mobile gym service is another but it does kill the “I just couldn’t make it to the gym” excuse. It’s not an excuse when the gym comes to you.

I've always hated going to the gym, but Clif and the team ( especially CASH) Have kept me motivated and encouraged. Day one Clif wrote out a fitness routine for me to follow and almost 60 days later I'm still cranking it out ( I've normally ghosted the gym life by now). The gym is clean, intimate ( not so big, loud and busy you feel lost and intimidated), friendly and truly open 24hours 7 days a week; which is epic 😎. Here, I'm not afraid to ask questions about the equipment or how to improve my weight loss/fitness experience. Overall, great place and I am incredibly thankful for it.

Probably one of my favorite gyms that I've ever been a member at. Their equipment is always clean, working, and is state of the art. The staff is friendly and knowledgeable on all aspect of fitness.
The fact that it is a 24 hour gym is another added benefit for us with hectic scheduled. If you're looking for a gym, definitely give this place a look!

I am so glad I found this gem of gym! It’s a nice and very clean little gym but don’t let the size fool you! There is so much to do there! Here are a few of the reasons why I love this gym and why you should join:
1. First of all you can’t beat their prices!
2. They have hiit classes Monday-Thursday (that do not cost extra) with extremely knowledgeable, creative, and motivating trainers that are there to support you throughout your fitness journey. (No matter where you are at on that journey!)
3. This place is very welcoming and supportive to everyone that walks through the door!

The classes are challenging and the trainers are knowledgeable in nutrition and fitness. They are always ready to share their knowledge to help you achieve your goals. It is a small gym, but they maximize the space so you always get a great workout. The membership is unbeatable and 24 hour access is available so there are NO EXCUSES to sit on the couch! 😊

Absolutely love doing group train at EXSS Fit with Cliff! The accountability level is extremely motivational. The flexibility of different class times is really great and allows me to get in a workout around my busy schedule. I would highly recommend EXSS Fit to any skill level from couch potato to gym buff. Better than any gym experience, very personable and encouraging. Cliff will always build you up and not let you down!
