soooo this is long, but bear with me.3 years ago i started working out with my first coach michelle at one life. i loved it, love her & still able to be friends. ive been in the gym off & on since like 2017 but always failed because got tired of googling exercises so when i started working out with michelle to get in shape for my wedding i loved it was going great, meal prepping, showing up to workout with her 3x a week. she even taught me how to box (man do i miss that).september 2021 came, my husband & i caught the covid so it put a halt on my working out & didnt have an appetite. well, got over it & tried going back to my workouts with michelle but i had the never ending side effect of covid with getting out of breathe so between that & i got a new job our schedules didnt workout together & then my husbands seizures started getting worse so i put myself on the back burner & of course was trying to figure everything out about that we finally got answers & he got the correct treatment he needed last year october 19, 2022 & hes been doing tremendously better so i decided that this year beginning of 2023 i was focusing on my health again & becoming better as i turn 30 in january of 2024 a couple girls i worked with went to grit life & always said how much they love it i followed grit for a while then decided to have my consultation with lindsay. came home & talked to my husband about how it all went & told him i was doing it & he supported/supports it/megoing was so out of my comfort zone because thats not something i would normally do, but i absolutely love it & am so glad that i joined. i have been doing so much better with my workouts & they have helped me with my nutrition that i am actually eating stuff i had never eaten before i meal prep & majority of the time i stick to it, there is still like maybe 15-20% of the time every once in a while i will give him and eat some kind of junk but before if i did that i would just fall off track & never get back on. so far ive lost 20 pounds since the beginning of the year & even though the scale doesnt want to move i can tell im still losing because im having to buy smaller clothes.for example we just had a long weekend of camping & before id come home & say ill just wing my meals for the week, but im almost done with my meal prep for the week this place & the people from coaches & other clients has changed my life

Pros: The owners are nice and do establish constant communication and are easy to get ahold of. The physical location is equipped well, and the idea of having a personal coach is intriguing. I am giving this review two stars for the aforementioned.Cons:The 6 week free transformation challenge is a SCAM!!!!!!! They will take your card information and charge you at least $750 for this challenge with the idea being youll see the return of this investment with this much of a discount on a future membership. So it is not free at all. (Fair disclosure I signed a contract with that in the print so I wasnt able to get anything back, but I felt forced into signing and was intimidated into committing to this amount.) I understand a program like this being free is probably too good to be true (it is), but its malicious and false marketing/advertising. Due to this and the additional cons below I did NOT proceed forward with a membership.The nutrition coaching is supposed to be custom to you, but youll quickly learn (through the gyms required accountability app) everyone is getting the same meals. Each person is not a one size fits all, and thus should not be treated as such.The coaches are kind and Im sure wonderful people, but lack any type of enthusiasm. I was not motivated at all during the workouts which is most of the point of going in person to a gym. The playlists leave something to be desired, and I was there on at least one occasion when a coach didnt even know what a certain exercise was that they were supposed to be teaching (and correcting form on) that day. In a fitness position, you really should be thoroughly trained on all exercises you plan to coach and the best form as well as modifications for clients. I did not feel confident at all in any of the coaches education.Like mentioned above, when you sign on you are assigned a personal coach. This coach is one of the instructors that youre supposed to check in with from time to time for accountability purposes. While I think this is probably a good idea, it felt forced to me and I never was able to be open and honest with someone I didnt know at all. A better way to do this would be to have every new client meet all the coaches and have them select who they would like as their personal coach after a little meet and greet. You could even have an event where a bunch of new clients and all the coaches meet and mingle. It would increase trust and thus also boost accountability.Finally, the incessant sales of protein powders, supplements, pre workout, etc. It felt like every single day I was getting a text, app notification, and email that they were trying to sell me something else. They also tried to use the its so discounted Im probably losing money tactic that just really puts a bad car salesman taste in my mouth.Overall, I would not recommend Grit Life Fitness to my friends or family. If you are someone who just wants to be told what exercises to do, how many reps, and basically do any other work (nutrition, form, etc) on your own- this might be a good fit for you, but you can get the same thing (or better) from other free, or significantly more cost effective, sources. If you choose to join, be very careful of what you sign.
