- PAPatricia AguayoNov 16, 20255.0Absolutely love it my trainer Marco is great so patient After not really exercising for a long time At 71 I found a place that works for me I am so looking forward to seeing and feeling my progress.
- GMGrace MannAug 21, 20255.0All the trainers I worked with, Daryl, Justin, Merry, Marciano, were super friendly. They work you hard, but they do it with a smile and humor. You get their undivided attention when you're at the studio.
- JDJ DLSAug 19, 20255.0Truly the perfect workout! So close and so convenient, and the team is extremely flexible with scheduling, not to mention super nice and friendly! I always feel so comfortable and excited for my workout, like I’m just going to hang out with my friends for 20 mins. Above all that, I am absolutely so much stronger and more energized. I really do get a good workout in 20 mins, and even work up a sweat. The perfect workout came at the perfect time for me because my joints were really starting to hurt. It was so hard for me to bend at the knees while doing simple household chores. Now, I feel much healthier and my joints are actually pain-free, which is the biggest bonus. Most valuable 20 mins of my entire week!
- DJDarcy JonesJul 23, 20255.0I am so happy that I found The Perfect Workout. It is extremely effective - my strength gains have been exceptional in the past year. You can track your results on the app, and the app now has features allowing you to track your body fat percentage. The trainers are supportive and every one of them pushes you to fatigue so you get the most efficient and effective workout. The 20-minute format really works. The trainers set up each machine for you so you don’t waste time waiting for a machine or remembering how to set it up, and they make sure you do progressive overload for each strength exercise so you get muscle gains. They also will customize the workout for you and your goals, and the trainers are extremely knowledgeable and always focus on your form. I used to detest strength training. I was always sore and found it tedious, but never felt like I was seeing much improvement. With The Perfect Workout, I look forward to each session and my progress is real. They don’t try to sell you on anything, and there are no gimmicks. Parking is extremely easy and free. I love this facility and everyone in it.
- TYTisa YontsJul 22, 20255.0The Perfect Workout is smarter weight training that amazingly brings results in just two 20 minute sessions a week! Knowing my session will be just 20 minutes gives me so much motivation to be consistent and bring everything I’ve got. And working side by side with a trainer, who sets up each station, keeps track of each session’s progress and knows how far I like to push myself is sooooo helpful. Best investment I could have made to develop a weight training lifestyle! And I know it has powerfully advanced my health.
Frequently Asked Questions About The Perfect Workout
This sounds too good to be true – Great results in 20 minutes, twice a week?
We understand the skepticism surrounding a 20-minute exercise routine. It goes against the grain of traditional beliefs.
The truth is, if you’re doing more exercise than needed, your workout may not be intense enough. With many traditional methods, a lot of time spent during your workout is “rest time.” More rest during a workout can reduce muscle growth and cardiovascular impact.
So you can either work hard during exercise, or you can work out for a long time – but you can’t do both. Intensity is key if you want to effectively boost your metabolism, improve VO2 max, and not only build lean muscle but support your skeletal health.
Our approach is not only unique, it’s grounded in research.
We train all major muscle groups through 5-8 exercises with minimal rest between sets. Our method and technology provide the perfect resistance for every exercise, eliminating virtually any risk of injury. So you’ll spend your sessions burning more fat and building more strength than traditional weight training.
But don’t take our word for it! Come in for your own free Introductory Session. Experience the methodology first-hand, without any obligation.

I don’t have a lot of experience with exercise. Is this the right workout for me?
Absolutely! You don’t need any prior exercise experience to see results with our method.
Slow-motion strength training is incredibly effective and easy to adapt, making it perfect for beginners. Our certified trainers will guide you every step of the way, tailoring the workouts to your pace. Whether you’re new to exercise or a seasoned fitness enthusiast, The Perfect Workout is designed for all experience levels.
When will I see results?
Many of our members notice positive changes within the first 6 weeks, and some even feel the benefits almost immediately.
Everyone’s body and goals are unique, so results can vary. Your progress will depend on how your body responds to the workouts, your nutrition, and how well you push yourself. Remember, everyone’s journey is different, and we’re here to support you every step of the way! Consistency is key, so keep going, and you’ll see the progress you’re looking for.
Will I get too big and bulky?
This is a common concern, but rest assured, the answer is no.
Slow-motion strength training helps you build lean muscle mass, which will tone your body and boost your metabolism to burn more fat. Since muscle is denser than fat, adding muscle and losing fat will actually make you leaner and firmer. So, you can enjoy the benefits without worrying about getting too bulky!
Are your trainers certified?
Absolutely! Our trainers go through a rigorous education process that sets us apart.
Unlike many other certifications, ours includes extensive hands-on training with real people. We ensure our trainers are highly skilled through numerous written and practical exams.
