FNS REVIEWS

FNS IS MORE THAN A GYM…

It’s a lifestyle choice you make

STEPHANIE is a real treasure. Very knowledgeable, always spends time in advance to prepare for my training and follows my nutrition, results, etc... She always pushes me to use my whole potential meanwhile taking care of my postpartum and physical issues. Very understanding and supporting person. I can't tell enough about her. I really like the facility and other staff too.

- Lili Ghazian

FNS is fantastic. I just show up without thinking or planning and get a tough yet fun workout. The coaches make sure that I’m using the right form and challenge me when I’m ready for the next level. The class camaraderie is so great and pushes me harder. Thank you to the whole FNS team!

- Megan Diehl

I LOVE FNS!!! Discovered Brian Nuñez through Instagram, where I joined his live classes every Friday. ( I was looking forward to Fridays:) and after I decided to join his team on AMAZING FNS platform. After only a month of guided Zoom Classes I improved my running speed and strength performance up to 40%. Whoever struggles with motivation to make that first move, FNS is the place for you. You will be working out with the team of enthusiastic professionals just from your home at the time that works best for you.

- Drobnjak Ana

This program is so accessible right now. The energy during the workouts is high and the community is tight- and that helps with accountability! I have been attending workout sessions at FNS since 2016 & I’ll continue for the foreseeable future. There’s no place like it!

- Royce A

I’ve always struggled to have a consistent workout routine. I love that Brian holds me accountable in the most encouraging way. There is a sense of family when joining this gym. I also love that the workouts are streamed live from my home. No excuses with how convenient the streaming feature is. 🙂

- Kaitlin Keller

I am currently taking PT sessions with coach Mary. She is very mindful of my fitness goals and I have made good progress towards achieving these goals. I feel the training sessions have been increasingly challenging, which has helped increased my endurance. Mary tries to make sure my form is perfect and works patiently towards this end.In addition, the facility appears world-class and the atmosphere is very motivating and addictive. During my initial visit to the training center, I really liked the fact that there wasn’t a push for hard sell and the focus was more on understanding my fitness goals. Overall, my experience thus far has been wonderful and I hope to remain an athlete at FNS for the foreseeable future.

- Puneet Anand

I took a class here at the behest of a friend who is *super fit.* I knew going in I would not be able to keep up, but that's OK with me. The space and equipment were great. All the staff were so friendly and welcoming. The coach was really good-- kept everyone moving and motivated, checked in and gave feedback. It was clear that he knew each person and what they needed. The other gym members were all really kind and supportive too. What a great place to go and get after your goals!

- Rebecca Howarth

This place has transformed my fitness in many ways. The owner/coach Brian is so amazing and friendly. I have gone to the group classes which are awesome and fun and had 1:1 training with Kim who is AMAZING! Within a few weeks, I have lost fat, gained muscle and become much stronger. The equipment is really good and all the coaches, regardless of whether they teach you or not are super friendly and motivating. Love the culture this place has!

- Sharanya V Prasad

Love this place. Great workouts. Encouraging coaches. Always pushing you to be your best. Amazing culture of encouraging others. Only competition is being better than you were yesterday.

- Ann C. William

Best place to elevate your potential and to be the best version your yourself. All you need to do is just show up.

- Mahesh Kumar

Great place, Coaches are really enthusiastic about exercise.

- Carlos Mencia

"Best place to loose weight, educate yourself in fitness as well as nutrition. I can say it has the best and supportive people there that will help you along your journey to a better lifestyle. FNS is for you. Period.

- Luis Ramirez

I love coming to FNS! Such a positive environment. Coaches and athletes are very supportive. I’ve always hated gyms until I came to FNS. They even have a recovery center. The coaches encourages changing bad habits to set you up for your lifetime and not temporary fixes. Coaches are attentive to each individual needs such as levels of expertise, and when to push you. No egos! Everyone is there to work hard, push, and encourage each other.

- Khai Aimee

I love coming to FNS Training Center classes!! The classes consist of involving workouts with different movements at each station. Your time in class will go by SO quickly because it's all fast paced and you're not doing the same thing for too long, making it super fun.

The trainers are always so high energy and helpful with describing the movements for each station. Music is always on point too.

Love that they use quality equipment here (love/hate relationship with the AssaultBike!) and they have plenty of towels, hand sanitizer and cleaning supplies to clean up your station when moving around.

Definitely would recommend this gym to someone who loves a fast-paced, hard workout class. They have classes at convenient times (although the evening ones do tend to fill up quickly), and they focus on different parts of the body throughout the week. Even though it's usually the hardest classes, the full-body metcons are my personal favorite. Go check it out.

- Debbi B.

Coach Brian is definitely the Oracle of fitness as his classes are hard and they challenge you. He is very personable and ensures your body can push itself to the best of its ability. FNS is a community and every coach is great as they know you by your name and ensure you have the best form while working out. You will definitely see results and for the fraction of a price compared to a physical trainer, it's a great deal. Given it's a mix of kettlebells, medballs, ropes, dumbbells, barbells, landmines, the works outs are challenging and build your core. The hour goes by very quick as you're having fun while building strength and your core Definitely the best group class I ever been to and I feel my endurance has been the highest it's ever been.

- Lalit T.

While attending different gyms for last 15 years I've always struggled to find and keep a good structure for my workouts and stay challenged at the same time. At FNS they have really good program for athletic training: it's intense, fun and injury safe. I definitely feel challenged and motivated in this gym. Also stuff is really supportive and that motivates me to push even further.

- Nikolay L.

I had to come back and update this, it's been 7 months since we have been taking classes regularly at FNS and the experience has been a game changer for me. I did my annual body check in 2020 and everything on the report was pretty much red and soaring high, it's just been 7 months I have no idea what the heck these red levels look like anymore. Blood Pressure, Cholesterol, Blood Sugar, Triglycerides, BMI are all within the normal range and the shirts I used to wear before now wrap around my body 🙂

For me this place has become a feeling more than a gym and I'll continue to be a FNS athlete for as long as I can.

- Poojan S.

FNS is literally life changing. Whether you want to learn to work out for the first time or feel like you need a new goal with your fitness .. this is the place. Sincere people, an open community .. and constant growth.

Words can't express - this place is truly the best.

- Whitney D.

It's best gym ever!! This is not your regular gym, it's a community of like minded people who encourage and push each other to do better. The coaches are some of the best I have come across and the facility is clean, well equipped and spacious.

- Neha C.

The atmosphere is extremely welcoming! The work outs were challenging. This was top notch! We hope to come back here and get a pack of memberships in the next few weeks.

We worked with Pam who scheduled our trial class. She welcomed us when we got there and went through the brief Covid screening.

The work outs were great. They had weights for us to use that were sanitized between each class. The place felt very clean.

The trainers were awesome and had fantastic energy.

We took a class by Brendan and Kaylee (May have misspelled names) but they were great. The energy they have is amazing.

They also demo'd the work outs and you can tell they practice what they preach.

They take a genuine interest in their students and that is very motivating when your getting your butt kicked.

After coming back from having a baby a few weeks ago working out has definitely been a different type of challenge and they helped me push through.

The atmosphere really helps raise your standards to be better because the class is full of bad asses.

It seems like an excellent community to be apart of.

- Krystle K

Professional, empowering and goes above and beyond to meet the Covid19 pandemic safety requirements.

I am THAT person who told myself that I would never miss gym days again once they open up. Low and behold this place has exceeded my expectations. I participate in the outdoor HIIT class taught by Brian. He's like THE perfect coach to have by your side even though you're sharing him with your other work out mates. He's not overbearing and definitely encouraging while hilarious. The same can be said for the rest of the coaches (Kailey, Bryan) and those who participate in these classes. It feels like a family and because of pandemic times the support everyone has for each other is much needed. These are awkward times and everyone could really use the positive reinforcement and smiles. Yup, they bring humor into these workouts and it's awesome!

Another thing I love about FNS is that you can sign up for the class through an app. Which tells you if the class is filled or not. Also, the staff is very proactive and will call you if they have to cancel a class (I.e., unhealthy air quality due to the fires). Since these classes meet outside per county regulations that is something very important to me to know they are mindful about given my health history. (Thank you Pam!) They have even adjusted their teaching to not put anyone at risk. I feel like when an obstacle comes this gyms way they literally are able to work through it and find better ways of improving. Why? Because they care THAT much about the people who attend. Seriously can they get any better!!

Cons: A bit pricey cuz I do a month-to-month but that's because I won't be in the area for too long.

Pros: It's so worth the cost and the staff encourages you to strive for the best! You don't fill pitted against another person in any way at all unlike other gyms.

Thank you FNS!!!!

I came to try-out my first class today 3/31/21 and coach Mike was awesome!! He kept checking on us and did a great job coaching. I was pleased and glad i gave it a chance. I came home after 8pm and got a text message from Mike welcoming to the gym and kind words of encouragement.

I was pleased and glad i gave it a chance. I came home after 8pm and got a text message from Mike welcoming to the gym and kind words of encouragement.

That's a great customer service for sure. An hour later, I realized I had lost my ring and remembered that i had left it in the personal individual small bin that the gym had provided.

I panicked and texted Mike right away. He got on it and contacted the gym for me.

Fortunately 15 mins later he informed me that front desk got the ring.

Phew!! I was so happy and grateful for whoever had found it and turned it in as well as Mike who personally wanted to help and reached out to the staff.

I'll be forever thankful to coach Mike.

Having been in the fitness industry for over 25 years, I am always looking to stay relevant, improve & learn from the best. Trust me when I say, it doesn't get better than Brian Nunez & FNS Training center. I have always admired and looked up to Brian as a leader in our industry, so I decided to make the most out of quarantine and sign up for their Zoom classes. Why not take this opportunity to learn from the best! Of course, it did not disappoint. The classes were amazing, instructive , creative & fun. While I wasn't part of their original "tribe", I felt so welcome. If you are lucky enough to be able to take classes at FNS in person DO. It is worth every penny & is truly life changing! If you are like me and that's not in the cards, try out their Zoom classes. I knew Brian was amazing, but also had the chance to take classes with both Brendan "Captain Crazy Socks" and Kailey, both of whom were wonderful. I appreciate Brian and his gym for setting such a high standard for us in fitness to live up to. He has helped me rise to another level.

- ami j.

I attend this gym virtually. They offer 5 live classes a day and 2 on Saturdays. Plus a SWOLL workout sheet for Sunday.

Every class is challenging. I have not been to a class where I was "oh my this is fairly easy".

You pay for an hour and they run you till the end. You are pushed and will be pushed. If you find the moves somehow easy don't worry they give you options for the over achievers out there.

Coaches are very positive always giving feedback.

Service and support has been great.

They are very dedicated to what they do.

As for results I started looking through smaller shirts I had, as my current selection is getting a bit to baggy to wear.

- Carlos M.

Simply put, I LOVE this gym! Prior to training at FNS, strength training had always been daunting to me. I've tried various workout studios from Barry's Bootcamp, Basecamp, Soulcycle, Rumble, etc., and I've enjoyed my time at FNS the most. Primarily because of the community and team of coaches here, who are optimistic, motivating, and attentive. They truly ensure that you have the best workout experience! The classes here are always fun, never boring, and you're guaranteed to get a great sweat in. Since shelter in place, Brian and the coaches have worked hard to ensure we still have optimal training experience with an online platform and daily Zoom workouts. They even gave me a free month of membership because my job was impacted due to the pandemic. It just goes to show that FNS is not just a gym, but a community of like-minded people who are here to support you on your journey to greatness.

- Michelle Z.

I am attending FNS for almost four months now and absolutely love it. I usually attend twice a week and try to go for their total body strength (most of my sessions were taken by Kailey) which were fantastic and a perfect combination of cardio plus strength. Recently their live sessions (live + replay) are fabulous as it is helping me continue with the workout while at home. Special thanks to the team for arranging these. The other part I like about the club is the energy and motivation that trainers bring into the class, gives the feeling of unity and helps you finish the class strongly. The only one star that i am not giving is coz, I am not sure how they arrange their weekly workout, as in, what muscles will be focused on what days. If those are known I won't do those muscles other days.. This is very minor thing, so I wanted to give 4.5, but I am not able to give that.. I would highly recommend this place for high intensity training.

- Anup N.

I put in exactly two years at FNS -- Jan 2018 through Jan 2020 -- and amongst all the other craziness, change, and activity in my life, FNS was my rock. It's not just a gym, nor simply a community...it's a family. Waking my butt up for 6am class was always worth it for the challenging workouts and time spent with people who pushed me to be my best (coaches and fellow athletes). I recently moved further up the peninsula and am no longer able to keep my membership, and it was one of the toughest goodbyes ever! I highly recommend FNS to anyone and everyone -- they deserve every bit of praise they get!! Love my FNS Fam

- Bella D.

I have been taking fitness classes at FNS for about 4 months now after belonging to 5 other gyms simultaneously (Lift, Push DT, OTF, AVAC, 24). I LOVE the workouts here. The workouts are based on strength training and not so much cardio. I try to workout 5 times per week and sometimes, I can not even look at another treadmill or rower! The trainers and front desk know me by first name and could not be more welcoming. The atmosphere thrives on a culture of teamwork and camaraderie. Brian, the owner, is down to earth and not above his clients. Their philosophy of We is greater than Me and everyone is an athlete is so motivational. Working in Santa Clara, this gym has been a great find for me during lunch hours and so far, I have seen great results in my personal strength. I would highly encourage anyone to give it a try.

- Holly B.

I love FNS. It’s been “my place” since 2013 and regardless of my personal ups and downs, the staff and coaches at FNS are always there, checking in on me and cheering me on, encouraging me to compete only against myself. Just show up and do the work. Simple.

- Stephanie Foreman

Hi FNS Family! I have always loved the love and passion of the work you do to keep us healthy and motivated. Every person I have worked out with: either the Coaches or the fellow classmates are the best. I know in the hour class I am going to get a great, safe, well-trained workout.
