When I started working out at Southwest Fitness 17 months ago, it was at the recommendation of my nephew who loved working out there, and worked out every evening (before moving out of state). He told me about the owners, Kristen and Bob and their encouragement and expertise. Since my nephew is a former Ranger in the Armed Services, I thought at first that their gym catered to "jocks" like him. However, after joining Southwest Fitness, I realized that Kristen and Bob have created a gym that caters to everyone who wants to be more physically fit, and to have fun doing it. I have taken five out of the last six "boot-camps" run by Kristen, and have become a little bit of a "jock" myself (losing inches and pounds, while gaining strength, confidence and aerobic capacity). The staff are friendly, knowledgeable and welcoming; the gym is clean; the prices modest; and the equipment well-maintained. This is the first gym I've ever liked enough to stay with. Bravo, Bob and Kristen!

If there are two nicer people in Gold Canyon than Bob and Kristen, the owners of Southwest Fitness, I've yet to meet them. Regarding the facility itself, the planning that went into its design and layout are very apparent. The facility is purpose-driven, and every square foot is put to good use. I'm probably there four days a week, and I appreciate the fact that I can go on my own schedule. So if you're looking for a conveniently located, great place to work out, I highly recommend SWF.

This is a great place - the 24/7 access gives people the flexibility to come in at their convenience. The gym is always clean and everything is very well maintained and fully functional. The staff have been very helpful with creating a custom plan for me, but there is never a hard-sell for personal training or other services. Unlike other gyms, there isn't any pressure from non-employees trying to sell you training or supplements, and it doesn't have the "meat market" atmosphere of gyms where people just go to meet people. You come in and do your workout - no surprises and no drama.

This is a wonderful fitness facility. I've been a member since the gym first opened in 2012. You can certainly see the pride of ownership that Bob and Kristen have. They know all of their members by name and take an active interest in helping members reach their fitness goals. When I first joined, I hadn't been to a gym in over 10 years. First Bob and then Kristen worked with me to get in shape and lose weight in the process. Gyms can be very uncomfortable and intimidating places - not so at Southwest Fitness. I feel so comfortable and at home here. The other members and staff are so friendly and helpful. I'm a member for life!

I have been a member since the day they opened a year and a half ago!! Best fitness center in the far east valley!! Love Bob Kristen and Jane, they are so friendly and knowledgeable in the fitness industry, its like a big happy family :) The fitness center is VERY CLEAN, the equipment is new and safe! When Im working out there I feel like its my own personal gym! Everyone you run into at their gym is also very friendly, happy always greeted with a smile. The clients really mimic the owners personality! I love this gym and would recommend it to anyone who is living out in the far east valley. I feel the premium you pay to be a member here is WELL worth the experience you get working out there! YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR!! all I can say is this facility and the staff are AMAZING! Thank you guys for being apart of my fitness journey!!
