At Bay Area Trainer, we have a fully equipped private gym. Anything you can do in a large commercial gym, you can do here in a comfortable private environment and with a Certified Personal Trainer. The workout is based on your current fitness level and personal goals. We truly customize each workout program based on where you are at now and where you want to get go!
I have always been active, growing up an athlete. I have done everything from going to the gym day in and day out, trying workout videos like Insanity and varying up the workouts with hikes and outdoor exercise. Sticking to working out has never been a problem but getting bored with workouts was. Then I found BayArea Trainer bootcamps and decided to try it out.

I have been going to Bay Area Trainers since September of 2020. I initially signup for 80 sessions with the goal of losing 50lbs. Before attending my first session I was nervous and felt worried that I would be the only one in the gym who looked like me, over 100lbs overweight. I knew tackling my weight problem would be a huge mountain to climb, and really did not know where to begin. From the first session I felt so comfortable with our trainer, and my worries eased. There were people there of all ages and abilities. I knew having a set schedule with one-on-one training would work best for me

Great certified personal trainers with broad experience in weight loss, weight gain, muscle toning and conditioning and, nutritional counseling to help me achieve personal goals. They offer one- on-one personal training including regular follow up goal assessments. Drew is my personal trainer and, Dean is always there to lend advice and opinion on different exercises and nutritional and supplement advice. Nothing like gyms you may have belonged to in the past. These guys will challenge you to achieve the goals you set for yourself. I see men and women working hard with experienced and credentialed

My husband and I signed up with Bay Area Trainers to get back in shape since we both lost our way for a while in staying fit. From the beginning of our evaluation process with Dean ( the owner) to then being assigned to Drew our trainer we have nothing but great things to say about both of them and the whole team at Bay Area Trainers. Drew has been the best trainer with fitting our workouts to our abilities and needs. He pushes us to achieve the best results possible.
Dean and Drew both have been extremely accomodating to anything we need.
This whole experience has exceeded our expectations

My trainer, Justin, is so knowledgeable and constantly adapts my training because of many joint injuries. I was impressed with the owner Dean right away and so pleased that he matched me with Justin. I've also trained with Drew when Justin was on vacation and I'm really happy with him too. The Covid cleaning is crazy great, I feel very safe and as I'm approaching the end of my 6 month contract, trying to figure out how to afford another 6 months!

I've been training with Dean for almost a year and a half. I joined when I retired and my goal was to become strong and more fit overall. I didn't really need to lose weight but wanted to be strong enough to keep up with my lifestyle and my grand kids! I could not be more pleased with the results. I've had gym memberships in the past and attended group exercise but there is no comparison to the attention to detail you get during personal training. These guys know what they're doing. I highly recommend Bay Area Trainer!

Big shout out to Dean Lumia and his trainers at Bay Area Trainer! In highschool I was a nationally ranked competitive gymnast. So needless to say I was in VERY good shape! My career ended with a shoulder injury which lead to a surgery, which in turn led me into the work force. Well, the work force landed me with a wrist injury that left me unable to use my left (dominate) hand/wrist for over a year. Two surgeries later I could finally use it again so I decided to get back into shape. Seeing as I never had to lift weights for my gymnastics workouts I needed the right guidance. And the trainers at

Just started my 3rd week of 3 days a week, 6 month commitment with Justin after my initial workout with Dean. In just the few sessions I already have more energy at home, more stamina and feel better! The trainers are all friendly, helpful, know their stuff and best of all, totally non-judgemental. It wasn't easy making this commitment at my weight and age (I'm one of the oldest clients) but it was the best decision I've made since I retired.
If you are looking for trainers who are 100% committed to you during your hour, this is the place. People go here to work, not to be noticed

I was looking for a personal trainer that would help me reconnect and trust my body again after my long illness. They did a great job challenging me but also respecting where I was with my relationship to my body. If your serious about to get back into shape but are recovering from an illness or injury, this is where you want to go.

Highly recommend seeing Jordan if you're ready to reach your fitness goals! I came here four months after having my son and was more than ready to start getting my pre baby body back. I got more than what I expected! Jordan is absolutely amazing. She listens to what your goals are and helps you achieve them. It's not all about losing weight, she's helped me gain muscle, lose body fat, and really help me get perfect form. I'm much more confident in a gym setting and it feels great! 10/10 experience!

If you’re looking for a one on one experience, this is a great place. The trainers are really nice and knowledgeable. I worked with De’vin and he provided a lot of varied workouts and increased my fitness level at a good pace. Workouts are by appointment only so sessions are very private. I’d recommend it for beginners - intermediate fitness levels, those wanting to establish good technic before going it alone (me), anyone wanting privacy, and anyone who needs external motivation to workout (having a set appointment with a trainer means you are way less likely to blow it off). Give it a try

Jordan is my first personal trainer and I have enjoyed every session with her. She really listens to what I want to work on and if I absolutely hate an exercise, she comes up with fun new ways to target the same muscle groups. I originally signed up for 3 months of training and I have signed up for another 3. I have seen so my progress for myself, not only externally, but mentally as well. I no longer absolutely despise the gym.
The gym is clean and fully equipped and workouts can be changed often if you get bored/need change. And there are 2 clean restrooms with room to change and cubbies to

This place is great! This gym is used solely for personal trainers and their clients. When you sign up, you meet with Dean, the owner, who asks you about your goals and talks over the options. You're then assigned to one of his certified trainers. I signed up for 2 sessions per week for 3 months. I was assigned to Jordan and she is amazing. She was very down to earth and committed, and you can just tell that she cares about the work that she's doing to help people reach their goals. She really teaches you how to do exercises correctly so you don't injure yourself. And she checks

"Since meeting Dean, it's the first time I've ever enjoyed training in a gym. Time passes quickly and the sessions are varied. He also provides a rounded service, focusing on nutrition as well as exercise so that I achieve my goals quicker. I'm definitely seeing a difference and getting more toned which is exactly what I wanted."

I spent a total of 9 months with Dean, unfortunately due to my hectic work and kid schedule I had to move to a 24 hour gym as I could not commit to a set schedule. Anyways, Dean was super nice, very knowledgeable and made my time pass quickly. Thanks again Dean for making this middle age father feel young again.

I have to admit I was hesitant to hire a personal trainer since I'm one of those know-it-all. I "knew" how to work out and have a gym membership. The sad reality was, I didn't go to the gym and I had that membership for years. Insanity is..... I finally decided that enough was enough! I'm not getting any younger and I want to see my body in shape! Wow, was I in for a surprise! Dean tailored my work outs perfect, they are fun and I've lost already 4.5 pounds in 2 weeks. Can't wait to see how my body transforms!!! Thank you Dean!

Glad I made the choice to utilize Dean for my physical fitness needs , I feel more confident working with weights and now better understand what each muscle in my body can do , my road to recovery from a hamstring tear has been nothing but great and the fear of injuring myself again is gone with the help of Deans knowledge and true desire to help his clients get back the strength , mobility and vitality for a healthier life.......I could go on and on about how much better I feel and how great Dean and his staff are but check it our for yourself !

Devin is a fantastic group trainer who has a talent for devising interesting workouts suitable for all fitness levels. He takes care to correct your form so that you remain safe and also get the most out of each exercise. The modified exercises for beginners are very challenging for me and I always feel as though I've accomplished something meaningful in the pursuit of good health at the end of each session. Cannot endorse this program enough!

I have been coming to Bay Area Trainer for about 5 months now. I get to have a one on one training session with Dean once a week and then go to the boot camps offered and I have seen the best result! I have worked out for over 20 years and never felt this good! Dean is the best trainer with so much knowledge of what my body needs to sculpt it and Devin who leads the boot camps pushes me past what I think my limits are! The combination of the two plus with the added bonus of help with meal plans has me feeling and looking better than I ever have! Highly recommend!

I recently signed up for the 36-session package to get the best rate and have to say I have no regrets in doing so.
I am currently on the fifth week with Dean, who is a knowledgeable, motivational and understanding personal trainer. He is absolutely fantastic to work with not only because of his training knowledge and personality but also his lifestyle guidance to achieve the best fitness result.
Best trainer in the area!

I found him totally by accident. I'm over weight & terribly out of shape. In 10 sessions I've noticed a difference. He is a fantastic trainer & a very nice person. He creates workouts that work for ME. He is very accommodating & is willing to work with me on a schedule that works for both of us. He's NEVER flaked or forgotten about me. If he's had an earlier time slot he will call & see if I'd like to come in earlier. I plan on staying with him for a very long time. I highly recommend him. His prices are very reasonable too!!!!

Dean is great and will get you amazing results! This review is way long overdue as I used him in 2007 before he had his own gym at the current Martinez location. Not only was I paying for a 24 Hour Fitness monthly membership but I also had to pay for a membership where Dean would train, but that no longer applies as the hourly fee is included with the current gym location in Martinez. So today's pricing is better overall!
I always paid 2 months in advance and that forced me to commit to the training as well as offering a better per hourly deal.
