Able Body Fitness

I only have positive things to say about Camilo and Able Body Fitness. Camilo tailors every workout thoughtfully to individual needs and goals, and his depth of knowledge really shows—he explains the “why” behind what you’re doing, which makes the training feel purposeful and safe. The gym itself has an impressive variety of equipment that’s always clean and well maintained. It’s a welcoming, professional environment. Highly recommend Camilo, the owner Stu and Able Body Fitness to anyone looking for smart, personalized training.

I found Able Body Fitness on one of my walks. At the time, I was experiencing sharp, stabbing, back pains. I thought I would check out Able Body as I was looking for relief. I was glad I did as I got a solution. Able Body has a lot of retirees and elderly clients. They are getting the help they need to stay fit and mobile. The fitness center is run and owned by Stuart Allen. Several things impressed me with him. First is integrity. He is honest and fair and works to provide what you need to meet your fitness goals. Second, is his knowledge of the human body and its inner workings of muscles and tendons. Third is his experience. Stuart has been in the fitness business for many decades and has worked with Olympic trainers. He has seen all the fitness hype and counsels his clients to avoid it. He knows what works from experience. He knows thousands of exercises. If one exercise does not work for you, he knows others that will. He will always keep you safe, keeping you from hurting yourself. Fourth, Stuart has invested in great equipment and matting. Fifth, he runs a clean, germ and virus-free place, sanitizing equipment often. He encourages staff and clients to stay home if they are sick. Sometimes, exercise is not enough to free up tight muscles that prevent movement. In these cases, therapeutic massage is required. On staff is Christina, a certified massage therapist, that works wonders with tight muscles and tendons. Lastly, there is the attitude of the staff. They are glad to be there. It is not work – it is fun. Mark K.

Able Body Fitness is perhaps Sacramento’s hidden gem amongst a plethora of fitness facilities. Located within the South Land Park area of the city, this gym caters to a widespread yet close-knit community of individuals seeking a variety of health and fitness options and goals. Clean, inviting, and aptly appointed with state of the art machines, equipment and tools for an improved and maintained lifestyle of health and fitness, the center welcomes everyone regardless of age, color or creed. The remarkable staff and certified trainers offer an abundance of personalized workout routines, specialize in rehabilitation programs and create an atmosphere of inclusion, encouragement, and support. The facility’s 24 hour access allows for individuals with specific scheduling needs to utilize the gym at all hours of the day and evening, without the overcrowding found at other fitness centers. Despite being located in one of Sacramento’s affluent neighborhoods, this gym is in a class all its own and offers membership at an incredibly affordable rate considering the services offered, which would be considerably more elsewhere. High recommendations all around for the team and Able Body Fitness! Continue your great work serving the community! -Thomas H.

For over 20 years I enjoyed having Bruce Coolidge develop my workout plans. When the old gym closed, I quit working out and got out of shape. Then I found out Bruce was working at Able Body Fitness and signed up for personal training. In the past year my workouts with Bruce have: improved my balance, strength and the way I walk; decreased joint pain; and increased the time I can garden. Bruce enjoys working with people and makes workouts fun, too. Workouts are individualized to meet your goals. Bruce focuses on exercising with good form to get the most benefit. Just a few inches difference in position and the exercise may not work the right muscles. If an exercise bothers an old injury he switches to another exercise. Christina’s massages also help loosen tight muscles, improve flexibility and allow more progress during workouts. Able Body Fitness is always clean, equipment works, and Stu, the trainers and clients are friendly and encouraging. Working out at Able Body has been a good investment in better health.

Able Body Fitness has everything you need for a stellar workout! The equipment is new, and the facility is always clean. The staff is very friendly and welcoming. There’s no intimidation. Just good vibes and wellness. I would definitely recommend this place.
