This gym is fantastic! From the moment I joined, the trainers made me feel welcome and encouraged, calming any nerves about starting fresh.

Anthony, in particular, went above and beyond to keep me motivated and help me progress. He made an effort to learn my name right away, and made note of my progress as I was gaining. I’ve seen him training others, and Anthony is absolutely incredible. Everyone he works with seems to make a ton of progress.

The equipment is spotless, with spray bottles readily available—and everyone takes care to clean up after themselves. Every machine or weight I’ve wanted to try is here, and everything is well-maintained.

Having lifted in gyms across the country (especially in California), I can confidently say this is the best gym I’ve ever been to. Worth every penny! Highly recommend!

Literally no complaints, I just wish I was staying in the area a bit longer. Will miss it when I move!

We have been incredibly fortunate to have Anthony Mallory (Dynastride) as a personal trainer for my son, who is a high school long-distance runner. Anthony combines deep knowledge of running techniques and endurance training with an impressive level of patience. He's taken the time to understand my son's specific needs, designing workouts that are both challenging and tailored to his progress. Not only is Anthony a great motivator, but his calm and supportive approach has helped build my son’s confidence. We’ve seen remarkable improvements, and my son enjoys his training sessions. Highly recommend for any athlete looking to improve their performance!

He also really enjoys his personalized training with Anthony at Self Made Fitness. This place is incredible and offers much more than a typical gym. The facility is huge, always clean, and filled with all the equipment you could ever need and friendly staff. Highly recommend!

Such a wonderful and an amazing environment for meditation and getting back to a reality.
My son stared working out with Mr. Anthony last year around this time. He’s drive to be successful in his training is much better than he was. His motivation and dedication is what makes a difference in anything you do or activity in life. Anthony’s guidance leadership and most importantly is his commitment to all his clients.
I would definitely recommend him to anyone who wants to starts or get back into it.
Blessings and prayers to all!

Blake Taylor is MAGIC!! ? At 48, I’m stronger than I’ve ever been. I never felt at home in a gym and weights were never my “thing”…until now. Blake is super knowledgeable without being intimidating, explains everything clearly, and provides the perfect amount of support and encouragement while still pushing you to exceed your own expectations and self-limiting beliefs. He genuinely cares about his clients’ wellbeing — inside and out. Best of all, training with Blake is FUN. I actually look forward to every session. (Like I said, miraculous!) Don’t sleep on his group boxing classes either, even if you’ve never boxed before. They are a BLAST!

Working with Nichelle at SMTF has been nothing short of life-changing. Her approach goes far beyond physical training; she's helped me cultivate a new lifestyle rooted in stability, strength, and vitality. Through our sessions, I've grown stronger physically with targeted stability work and strength training, but the transformation has extended far deeper. Her nutrition guidance and mindset coaching have truly reset my approach to wellness, helping me build habits that will enhance my health span and support me for years to come.

One of the most incredible parts of this journey has been rediscovering my love for mountain biking. Nichelle has reignited my passion for the trails, and I’m now back on switchbacks and single tracks, tackling them with improved endurance, energy, and a renewed spirit. Thanks to her guidance, my life feels richer and fuller. She has truly pushed me toward my happiest, truest self, and every day feels like a better adventure to be living. I can't recommend her enough—she’s a true coach in every sense. We also have fun and get to be silly sometimes:)

I've been a member of Self Made Training Facility (Folsom) since they opened. I can confidently say it's been an exceptional experience from the day I started training with coach Hanns. I train 4 days a week with Hanns working on boxing techniques and weight training.

First and foremost, the facility is top notch with state of the art equipment that caters to all fitness levels and goals, there's something here for everyone!

I have trained with many trainers/coaches and at many different facilities. The one thing that sets Self Made Training Facility apart from others is the welcoming feeling. You truly feel like you are part of a family here (not just a number). There are no crowds and the facility is well maintained.

Overall I would recommend this facility to anyone! The support received from my coach is unmatchable. The motivation I feel when I walk through the doors is amazing. The mental clarity I feel has no comparison to any other feeling.

Come train with me! Coach Hanns is the truth and you will not regret it! Being in the RING is the best part of my day!

This review is for Digvijay, DJ .
I have been working with DJ for past 9 years. I saw him working out in gym and instantly connected with his workout style and mainly thought process of improving lifestyle. I have been part of his online and offline trainings and nutrition plan. His style of teaching and giving you straight direction has driven me towards being better in every day in whatever I am doing by just simply applying one-rep-at a time.
His nutritional plan is not those typical diets we all get from other sources. His plans gave me new insights towards building a better lifestyle. The best part about him is that he gets your potential quickly and he taps into it to give you better results.
One last thing as DJ says “Trust the process, and give your 100%, there is no way you can’t see the results “
