      The crew at this gym are great! I came in wanting to improve overall fitness and push past some plateaus I was hitting. I ended up learning different forms that target muscles differently. I also really enjoyed the program starting from easier but targeted exercises to build a good foundation like floor hamstring curls and then moved on to complex movements like squats and bench press. I honestly feel like I learned how to properly bench and squat here. Overall, I'd highly recommend the gym if you're on the fence.

      This is the BEST gym I have ever joined. The team is incredibly supportive while also pushing you to meet your goals...and exceed them. I had given up on every finding a gym I liked. I'm 60 and a female and there are not many gyms that are even remotely friendly or want to bother. If you want to get strong and feel really good about yourself, Tailored Strength is the place to be. All ages are welcomed and it's a fantastic community. I work out with folks half my age and have a great time while working really, really hard.
      Do yourself a huge favor...JOIN!!

      I can't even begin to say how great this gym is! It's a small, private owned gym and the owner, Ryan, is amazing. Him and his staff of trainers (Drew, Joe and John) are not only professional, they are SO MUCH FUN!! Great guys who care so much about their trainees and really take the time to get to know you and help you develop weight lifting and workout skills to help better your overall health. I can't recommend this gym enough. You have to come here and try them out!!

      I've been coming to Tailored Strength for about a year and half attending the small group classes, and I've seen great results! Coming up with my own programming has been a bit of a hang up in the past, and Tailored makes it easy with challenging, fun, and creative routines each class. The trainers are knowledgeable and professional and are always available to watch my form. I also really enjoy the friendly and competitive atmosphere of the small group classes.

      I highly recommend Tailored Strength for anyone looking to incorporate more lifting into their routine than what the big corporate studios offer.

      I have been working out with Tailored Strength for about two years now and have seen incredible results.

      The whole staff is very kind, fun and motivating to the point where I can't wait to come back after each session. Ryan Taylor has seriously created a special community of people that want to improve their strength and health collectively as a team. The group sessions are very inviting to people of all levels, whether you are new to personal training or a seasoned vet. The camaraderie amongst the staff and other members is something you won't find at other gyms.

      I have done both the 1:1 sessions and the small group training (usually under 6 people) and have been very impressed with the hyper-focused attention and personalization each member receives. Ryan, Drew and Joe can always remember what weights I can handle and push me to reach new goals in a safe and productive manner.

      I would highly recommend giving Tailored Strength a try if you are looking for a new personal trainer. I promise, after meeting with Ryan for an initial free consultation, you will see how great of a guy he is and how knowledgeable he is about personal training! You are guaranteed to see results if you commit to a program!

      Ryan and the coaches at Tailored Strength are wonderful. Equal parts supportive, challenging and fun, I feel so safe and validated in my current fitness level working out here. Having only joined a few months ago, I really love the group sessions and am already seeing progress. Highly recommend!!

      My husband and I have been working out at Tailored Strength since 2019. Not sure why it's taken me so long to review - but it's been a really positive experience since the start.

      The gym offers three options: semi-private, solo training, or partner training.

      Personally love the group "semi-private" program - you have the energy of a group fitness class, but the careful/personalized personalized attention that comes with a small group (usually no more than 6). Whether you're working out with Joe, Drew, or Ryan, you can expect to have a well thought out workout that evolves over the course of the month building each week on variations from the week prior, with positive, knowledgeable trainers that take the time to get to know everyone and offer individualized feedback in each session. I constantly feel challenged with new skills, and they push me to meet my goals. I also don't feel like I'm sacrificing personal attention or quality training with the semi-private program- after a recent injury, each of the trainers took time to give me specific and solid exercises/modifications to help me get back to 100%.

      My husband prefers partner/personal training, and for anyone who enjoys customized, creative workouts in a comfortable but challenging environment, these sessions are also worth every penny in my opinion!

      Love the sense of community the gym has fostered, and will keep coming back!

      I love this place! After spending years on gym memberships with no guidance on lifting weights or proper form, I decided to look into private training and was pleasantly surprised to find Tailored Strength offered Semi Private/Small Group Training. Whether you are just starting out or advanced, they work with each person individually to find the right weights that work for you. The initial consult with Ryan was so informative, I was hooked after that. Each of the trainers (Joe, Drew, and John) are amazing and I look forward to going to the gym which has never been a thing for me until now. Don't walk, RUN, to join this incredible gym!

      I am so happy that I joined Tailored! I was apprehensive as I didn't like to exercise. Ryan (the owner) was super encouraging and motivated me to try it! I'm glad I did! I saw results within the first month! The trainers are awesome! They ensured that you were properly performing the movements and gave guidance. It's different than a collective work out class, it's semi 1 on 1 which gave me confidence in my progress. This team is the bomb and anyone who tries who not be disappointed!

      I've seen huge improvements during my training at Tailored Strength. Everyone I've met here has been super helpful and friendly and I've felt very encouraged by both the trainers and other clients. Drew has been fantastic during my personal training and the semi-private group classes are a lot of fun between exercises varying every session and everybody having a great attitude. Drew and Ryan have also been tremendously helpful in planning out my diet so that I get more out of my time at the gym, something I previously had trouble with before I began coming here. I'm super happy with the results I've seen and I absolutely recommend coming in to check it out!
