Exercise Science Center

Blake and Carla are amazing! It’s been ages since I was lucky enough to train with them and catch a bit of their passion for fitness and life! That was way back in High School. (I still regret not taking Blake up on learning javelin!) These two know athletes and know true potential and how to dig it out of you! Now decades later I still think back fondly on the foundations they laid regarding quality movement, safety, intensity, programming etc. They were the first seed planters in my future career as both a coach, instructor and trainer. If you want to be where fitness is done well by passionate loving people, you need to be at ESC! Thank you, Blake and Carla!

This is the best place that’s happened to me in the past 3 years. It has changed my life and my body. I have confidence, focus, and good health. Now, you can probably get this at any gym, but Exercise Science Center is different because of the staff. The co-​owners, a husband and wife team, are adjunct faculty at the community colleges with physiology degrees. They know their stuff. They help you and guide you and encourage you. You start with baseline measurements, then a work-​out plan to reach milestones. Every two months, you get re-​assessed and a new work-​out plan. It’s like having a personal trainer always available to you, with the price of the low monthly fee.

If you are any kind of athlete and you haven’t already gotten a fitness test, then you absolutely need to go here. Call this place tomorrow and go and do the GPA test. The GPA test measures flexibility, aerobic fitness and strength and gives you a grade out of a 4.0 scale.
I can’t stress how useful it is to have scientific results of your fitness that can be tested regularly to measure your progress. And in the results of the test, Blake can dissect your health and fitness with incredible depth and make ballpark suggestions on what to do to improve that you’d otherwise have to go through rigorous and expensive testing elsewhere to basically get offered the same advice. And best of all the service is so cheap and Blake is so friendly.

Anyone can get certified as a personal trainer but not everyone can earn Master’s Degrees in Science and sports education. That’s this place. The owners, Blake and Carla, are amazing. They know everything about working out and will share it with its members. This isn’t the most glamorous gym in the world but the staff sure know what they’re talking about. You can offer the most RANDOM sports athletic or workout question and they’re know it. The city even entrusts them to do the Firefighting testing.
A great gym with just enough equipment to get the job done.
