First time working in a small group training setting. I thought Chad was very professional, calm and I thoroughly enjoyed the class. I appreciate the calmness the class brought- nothing worse than being yelled at by a coach fist thing in the morning. It was a steady pace and flew by. Thank you!
Today was my first class, and I truly think it’s exactly what I need. I’ve been going to the gym here on and off for a while but haven’t seen the results I was hoping for. I realized I probably need that extra push and this class delivered. It reminded me of the power of group workouts and how motivating it is to have someone encouraging you to push through just one more round. From the moment I walked in, I felt very welcomed. Jake showed me around and introduced me to my coach, Chad, who was friendly, approachable, and incredibly helpful. The rest of the class was already warming up, clearly comfortable with one another and having a great time, which made the atmosphere even more inviting. Chad took the time to show me each exercise with proper form and posture, which meant a lot to me. I sometimes worry that I’m not lifting correctly, and he was quick to offer guidance and corrections in a supportive, encouraging way. Before I knew it, I was fully working out alongside the rest of the class. Everyone was welcoming, supportive, and motivated each other to do better, even as the new person, I felt completely included. By the end of the class, my legs felt like jelly, but in the best way possible, I actually felt like I accomplished something. 😊 I’m really looking forward to my next class and I’m so glad I found this place!
Starting my fitness journey at AIM Athletic has been a great experience. Chad guided me through a mix of dynamic warm-ups that got my blood flowing and strength exercises that challenged my muscles in new ways. He paid close attention to my form, correcting my posture during squats and adjusting my weight to match my ability, while encouraging me consistently throughout the session. I left feeling energized and ready to take on the day, exactly what I needed in the morning - the kind of boost that wakes up your whole body and sharpens your focus. The atmosphere at AIM Athletic is motivating without being overwhelming; the space has a steady, positive energy that keeps you engaged without pressure, making it easier to stay committed. This energized start has made a real difference in how I approach both my workouts and my daily routine.
Chad is great coach. Good feedback during workout! Positive vibes.
First time in the gym! Chad was our trainer and did great! Will be back.
Chad is an awesome super knowledgeable coach He’s always in a great mood and leads a great class everytime. Workouts are always so enjoyable with him
Rachel was incredible! She took the time to really observe my form during each exercise, offering clear guidance on how to improve my technique. Her coaching made the workout feel both challenging and manageable, especially when she adjusted the weights to match my strength level perfectl - and that I have recently had a stroke.
I chose Aim Gym because they have semi private training sessions I’m older with a couple of injuries I need my program tailored to my specific issues. That is exactly what I get and I’m very happy with the way they help me increase my weights without hurting me, but also progressing me along so that I continue to improve I have noticed a difference in my strength Plus, I also think about the things I have learned and use them at home in every day situations Like using my core if I’m carrying something Mostly, I work out with Chad Rachel and Jake I find all of them excellent at modifying where needed Also pushing me a bit. Thank you to the team at Aim!!!
Rachel is good coach. She help me so much. I love to attend her class again. She is awesome.
Coach Chad was great today. Always positive and supportive. He keeps the class motivated and makes sure form is explained on all movements. After 3 months I am see huge improvements in strength and cardio. Would Highly recommend joining 👌
Rachel guided me to a great workout today. I was exhausted after a very daunting workout but really glad that I joined in. Thanks! :)
Rachel was amazing as always!!!
Chad is an excellent trainer, always providing great instruction. I have made major progress in fitness levels.
Received encouragement throughout the class and maintained an upbeat mood! Thanks!
Travis is an excellent coach: always upbeat and encouraging. The time goes by quickly because he gets you motivated to achieve your personal besy!
What’s one achievement you’re proud of at AIM Athletic?
Had a wonderful session today. Racheal Helps a lot. Thanks Racheal.
Good cardio workout I like the choice provided whether it was strength or cardio. It was nice not having to think about a routine and just give ‘er… The only downside is it was a reminder how badly my cardio sucks! I will be getting a punch pass.
Rachel is great! She always does well in making sure I'm going beyond my comfort zone. She is always mindful of my back issues and adapts the exercises to fit my needs. I always leave feeling encouraged and exhausted... in the best way!
Rachel’s class today at AIM Athletic was great. She focused on proper form throughout the entire session, constantly watching each person’s movements and offering clear corrections to make sure we were doing the exercises safely and effectively. Despite the tough workout, she pushed everyone to the max, tailoring the intensity to match each person’s various abilities. The energy in the room was intense but motivating, and I left feeling like I had worked hard but also learned a lot about how to improve my technique. It’s the kind of challenge that leaves you proud and ready for the next session.
I had my first class with Jake today. The class was great. I loved his way of coaching and how he paid attention to each person in the class and made sure the way of doing the exercise was right. It was a great work out and I will go again
I had an excellent experience training with Jake! The class was upbeat, motivating, and led with great professionalism. The environment is exceptionally clean and positive, featuring top-of-the-line equipment and a well-organized setup. Jake’s leadership and coaching style is impressive — clear, encouraging, and perfectly balanced to challenge every fitness level. The members were warm and welcoming, making it easy to feel comfortable right away. I left feeling energized and inspired, and I’m excited to try more of the classes. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a fun, high-quality group fitness experience! Thank you!!!
Class was great. I enjoyed the format and the small class size. Looking forward to attending a morning class this week.
Travis is absolutely incredible! He’s knowledgeable, encouraging, and always finds the perfect balance between pushing you hard and keeping things fun.
Rachel was excellent Friday and today. She made sure that I was in the proper position for all my workouts. Nice clients. Super friendly too. Rachel corrected my weights and I really enjoyed my workout.
Great 6.15am class with Rachel this morning! She bring a lot of good energy and tempo for an early morning workout, I was tired and rejuvenated both by the end of it. I appreciate her attention to our form as well as giving me the push when that energy/focus dips!
The class was great. Helped find modifications when needed
It was an awesome workout , Travis is patient , calm and gives excellent instruction on proper form and exercise. Very concise It’s a 10 !! Thank you
Travis was very helpful and informative and mindful of my injuries
I've been going to AIM for over 2 years now. It's the only gym program that I have been consistent with. Why? It's the people who make up my gym family! Chad usually runs the small group sessions that I go to and he's wonderful! He's encouraging, supportive and super chill. I feel confident challenging myself knowing that Chad is there to provide the bit of extra support that I need. He also helps me adapt my exercises when needed. Best yet, he lets me do box jumps as an alternative to squats (yessss!!!) I can't say enough good things about being a member at AIM. I'm getting stronger, staying healthy and having fun all at the same time!
I had my first group session today with Jake. I was welcomed as soon as I walked through the doors, not only by Jake but by everyone there. I enjoyed the intensity and felt comfortable and safe knowing I was getting proper instructions for each workout. I look forward to many more sessions with Jake.
I loved taking Rachel’s class, she is a great motivator and I swear she has eyes on the back of her head because she always seems to know when someone in class needs a hand and will be there in an instant. I really appreciate how she offers adaptions or changes up an exercise that isn’t working for you. I cannot recommend Rachel enough!
Chad was my first introduction to AIM Firstly, very impressed with the layout , cleanliness and equipment selection. The thought process on the 3 day cycle makes so much sense and is only possible due to the 8 Person limits on these classes . Other 45 minute franchise gyms cram as much people into each class making it difficult to have an effective safe workout . Chad was a friendly 1st impression and walked me through the stretches before the class started and was attentive to all members during the class . Well done !!!
Great workout!
Travis was great as per usual overseeing my workout. Providing feedback where required to ensure that I had the correct form.
Always a great workout with Jake, he’s a beauty, always keeps the energy high
Travis was great at demonstrating the exercises, was attentive to the group, and made sure to give supportive and constructive feedback!
I always have a great class with Chad! He makes sure I am doing the exercises with correct form and encourages me to push myself in a balanced way. I especially appreciate his importance to safety - anytime some one is a doing a heavy set he is there to spot them!
Hi Jake! I sincerely appreciate how inclusive you were with the new members (myself included) IE: remembering our names, providing feedback, making us feel welcome. I really enjoyed the variety of what we did throughout the class too and how clean the gym was. Thank you so much :)
Really enjoyed today's class, and appreciate him taking the time to repeat his instructions to our group and correcting my form. Looking forward to taking another class.
Had my first actual work out in almost 12 years and was quite weary to try a class. However, I am so glad I did. My daughter introduced me to AIM as she raved about it. Rachel who was coaching our class went above and beyond to ensure I was doing each exercise correctly and modifying where needed. I will definitely be coming back.
Great experience with coach Rachel today! Coming back after vacation I was struggling with energy but Rachel motivated me to really push and get through. I came out of the workout feeling much better than I did going in thanks to Rachel’s encouragement and energy!
I have been working with Jake 2-3 days a week as part of my active rehab. I feel stronger than I ever have working with other trainers and my mobility has improved immensely. I hope to continue working with Jake as part of my daily strength training routine going forward. He very knowledgeable and a great coach that will modify or adapt as needed to make sure you are working the right muscles to achieve your goals. I am very happy with the results so far and can’t wait to continually improve.
The coach was Rachel and she is always positive, upbeat and challenging. Thanks for the great class!
5 to Travis for a valuable first session!
I worked with Travis today. He was great to work with. He explained the movements to me in a clear and understandable way and demonstrated them as well. He checked in with me many times to make sure I was doing ok. It was a good workout and I feel great afterwards, especially since I am just getting back into a fitness routine after a long absence. Thank you Travis. It was fun too. 😊
Coach Chad: perfect amount of encouragement and support. Very patient. Tailored the workout to accommodate me as a beginner.
Good workout and good encouragement
I would like to say thank you, Trevis for his work. It always fun to be in class.
Pushed me to do my best while also customizing the workout to best fit myself. Great like always!
The small group training class with Jake was amazing! Every session is intense, dynamic, challenging, and fun, with something new to learn every time! Jake is an incredibly supportive and motivating coach, with extensive knowledge, and he adapts to your individual fitness level to ensure you get the most out of each workout!
Yesterday I did a class with Travis who made me felt comfortable, challenged and supportive. He took the time to assess my health status and quickly adapted the routine, targeting key muscles. AIM and Travis are highly recommended.
Chad is great lots of help! He works with your specific needs and very approachable! Everyone in the classes are friendly and encouraging!
My experience with Chad this morning was exceptional. He was very patient and clear with how to do the exercises. Even when it was grueling, he didn't over push, but motivated us to get the job done. I would highly recommend any beginner that doesnt know what to do to just give it a go.
Great class today! As usual a lot of valuable advices and effective exercises.
Had my first mom workout class with Rachel today. Small group is and a baby friendly environment make this place perfect for new moms to get their outwork in. Thank you for the great space and program
It was great
Chad, was awesome!
Coach was actually Rachel (for the mom/baby sessions). I've been loving the classes, only wish we could do it 3 times a week instead of the 2 😊
Rachel was great! Very informative and motivating!
Love attending Jake’s classes! His programs are functional, challenging and he offers training options it meet your goals at any fitness level. AIM over all is the best!
Chad was really good. He wouldn’t let me stop the exercise until exhaustion and was quick to spot me so I could grind out a few more reps. Overall it was a really good class.
I really enjoyed my first AIM small group exercise class. The personal trainer Jake is very attentive. Would highly recommend!
Logan had been working out with Jake since the Spring and I can say without a doubt it has improved Logan’s hockey/skating tremendously. His speed and endurance shows on the ice! Thank you Jake. We look forward to keeping you as an integral part of Logan’s growth.
Travis has the ability to push you to achieve your goals and get the most out of your workout. He’s an asset to the AIM team
Beat coach ever!!! So much knowledge
Chad is a great coach. He cares and makes sure that I am working out 🏋️♀️ fully to my advantage and potential. 👍👍👍
Chad was very understanding and well informed. He made me comfortable on my first day of workout which was after a very, very long time. Once he knew my limits and injuries, he customized it accordingly. I look forward to my time with AIM in getting strong.
Great class. Keep up the good work.
Great, was a really good workout
Chad was great for my first time in a gym! The work out was fantastic.
Very well he’s great coach
Chad was great! It was my first time lifting weights and he really took the time to show me how to do it and encouraged me to do my best.
I felt a real one on one connection, thank you Trevor
Chad is a great attentive coach. Correcting my form as needed. He's friendly. I highly recommend all the coaches @ Aim Atheltics
It was great workout as always! My shoulders on are fire, in a good way. Thanks to Chad. If you have not check out AIM. The trainers are awesome. You won’t be disappointed!
As always, class was fantastic with Trevor! Always pushing us to our limits!
