McAlister Training - San Luis Obispo, California

McAllister training is unlike any gym I have ever been to. They utilize expertise in functional fitness and motivational psychology to get the entire class moving, energized and getting an amazing work out. I haven't felt this great in decades. Highly recommend checking it out. All ages can benefit. I go with my 22 year old son!

I am a “newbie” at McAlister training, and I have loved my experience so far. All of the trainers are so fun, sweet, and knowledgeable; the atmosphere is supportive and encouraging. There is always a friendly face there to jump in with me and go through the work out together. The owners are very thoughtful and welcoming. The workouts are all so different, which keeps me interested, and I love that there is a clear muscle group focus every day. I find myself becoming so excited to get back in there and become a better version of myself. I’ve genuinely enjoyed finding my baseline and can’t wait to see how much stronger and more athletic I become.

From the moment I walked through the door for my first class, I felt welcomed, encouraged, and motivated! The class size is perfect—not too big, so you get plenty of personalized attention, but large enough to feel the energy and motivation of the group.

The trainers are incredibly knowledgeable, supportive, and always push you to do your best. They take the time to ensure everyone has proper form and is getting the most out of each workout. Whether you’re a beginner or more advanced, the exercises are adaptable to your level, so you never feel out of place. I leave every class feeling accomplished and stronger!

This is more than just a gym. The trainers are amazing, positive, and very knowledgeable. Mcalister’s provides a family atmosphere that is unlike any other gym in SLO County. Couldn’t recommend them more.

I couldn’t be happier. McAlister Training has changed my life for the better. Previously the pain was so unbearable that I wasn’t able to sleep through the night. Michael’s wonder women classes have provided me with not only strength, stability, and mobility as a 66 year old, but with confidence. I can continue to do the things that I love like gardening, playing with my dogs, and taking walks. Michael is encouraging, attentive, personal, and provides detailed cues to each movement. He loves to challenge me to try my hardest.

I had my first training session with Delanie last night. Delanie is an absolute pleasure to work with. She is knowledgeable, friendly, and very welcoming. She analyzed my fitness level and thoroughly went over my goals and expectations. I am excited to continue working with Delanie.
McAlister's training studio is clean and organized. Delanie introduced me to Reese who was also working last night. Reese was equally as friendly and welcoming.

Before coming to McAlister, I thought that I had a pretty good system of writing my own workouts at the gym. Within two weeks of classes, I canceled my gym membership and switched solely to McAlister! The workouts were some of the most difficult that I had done and I could not match the level of intensity on my own. I have always tried to use strength training to help me stay fit for other activities in life like mountain biking, skiing, running, surfing, or anything other outdoor activity. Putting in the work in the gym makes the experience outside of it all the better. The McAlister workouts aren’t just put together to help you get bigger, but they’re strategically designed to help your body get stronger in a functional manner. Showing up in the gym has never felt better!

It didn’t take long to feel apart of the warm welcome and professionalism McAlister Training offers! Their trainers are so skilled making each class feel like you’re receiving the same benefits as a one on one a personal training session.
