When it was founded in 1983, Fitness Power broke ground by being one of the first personal training companies in the Bay Area. Now, the exclusive gym provides one-on-one training, either at its Sand Hill Road location or in a client's home. Fitness Power is owned and operated by Ken Preminger. The Stanford alum and former fitness coach for the 1986 San Francisco Giants was also the first personal trainer to serve on the President's Council of Physical Fitness and Sports in 2000.
Bayfront Fitness has been a privately-operated gym since 1995. The facility offers ample room for cardio machines, free weights and small group sessions. Personal training, plyometrics and functional training options are also available. When the weather allows, the back wall of the gym is opened up towards the bay, allowing a breeze to come in and provide perfect ventilation for those exercising. The gym is located close to the Marsh exit on 101. Not part of a chain, Bayfront Fitness is ideal for those looking for a low-key neghborhood gym where they will be known and remembered by name.
The goal at III Pillars is to provide its clients with the tools necessary to lead an independently healthy lifestyle.
III Pillars has created a one-on-one training facility dedicated to rendering quality health and wellness coaching in a positive and stimulating environment. Its staff believes that exercise, nutrition and rest all play an equal role in achieving optimal health. Most other progams use a broad approach, which does not always meet one's unique indiviual needs. The III Pillars method uses a "whole picture" approach to create a customized program.
The company is owned and run by Ryan Manuel and Erik Heywood. They both have CPT certifications and their affiliated trainers have CPT, ATC, USAW and other certifications. Check out the company's website for some spectacular training videos and more in-depth information about its services.
