Elev8 Performance

This is the best boot camp I’ve ever been to! Mark is such a great trainer & Kat the owner is so nice & encouraging. I found them through Groupon & I’m so glad I did. If you’re looking to get in shape in a fun, friendly, positive environment this is the place for you! Thank you Elev8!

I’ve been attending this gym for about 4 – 5 months and planning to stay longer. Pham and Kat are very determined to helping you reach your fitness goals, as well as the other Personal Trainers there. They are open to answering any questions you may have and are more than happy to help. The vibes in the gym are like no other and are very motivating, pushing you to your best ability. Highly recommend stoping by to check it out!

I’ve been training here for 2 months now and I can easily say that signing up for the semi-​personal training with Pham is the best decision I have made for my health. The facility itself is very clean and has everything that you’ll need to get a great workout in. I’ve also been able to work with multiple trainers at Elev8 and they’re all great.
Pham is obviously a professional and he displays that in every exercise that we go through. Workouts with Pham have been different every time and he has been teaching me proper form and movements that are key in seeing results.
I had a membership at 24 Hour Fitness Super Sport but the experience at Elev8 is completely different. The motivation and focus in trainers and members here is on a different level and that definitely helps when you’re trying to push yourself through every last rep. Everyone should give Elev8 a try… even with one session you will learn a lot.

I love this place great instructors :) Yea i don’t mean to brag but i am the beefyest ! :)

I joined Elev8 after seeing its results first hand. I witnessed a friend of mine accomplish his goal of building mass and muscle thanks to Pham and his badass gym.
I’ve been going there for almost 2 months now and I love it! Pham is an amazing, knowledgable, and skilled trainer. I’ve been shocked at how many different exercises and variations exist that I never even knew about!
The environment and attitude in Elev8 is one of a kind. It welcomes all levels of fitness while at the same time pushing and motivating everyone to try their best, put in work, and leave it all on the gym floor.
I came to Elev8 because I had taken almost 2 years off from the gym due to injuries and laziness. I was looking for a place to jumpstart my level of fitness and improve my life. Not only have I gained 7lbs of muscle in these 2 short months, but I’ve also become more determined, dedicated, and focused in all areas of my life.
I thank Pham and everyone at Elev8 Performance for their time, effort, and commitment, and I look forward to reaching all my goals!

Loved Meeting Kat! Down to earth gym, trainers were amazing and would recommend to all friends to stop by and visit 5 stars!!!

I’ve been to so many different gyms and trainer. This is one of my favorite! This place makes you feel like home and Pham is an amazing trainer. He shows me the proper technique to working out my muscles and plus I barely use any weights and I’m dead by the end of my workout. If you are serious about getting in shape this is the perfect gym!

Gym is awesome !!! I‘m a trainer, teach muay thai jiujitsu some personal trainer students, and I need to get train by somebody for have that extra push and offer the best for my clients !!
Here at elev8 Pham and Ryan are super good !!! A lot of knowledge on weight lifting I totally recommend !!!
In 2 weeks I gain 1,5lbs of muscle and lost 2lbs of fat !!! they did my diet and train me hard as hell every day !!! Its definitely a investment on my body !! No regrets !!!
6 stars !!!

My favorite gym in OC by far. I love that it is a private gym and I don’t have to wait forever to use the equipment… They also have different equipment that a normal gym fails to have. Everyone is super friendly and is serious about working out. Whether it be personal training or a regular gym membership Elev8 is the way to go!

I found Katrina on Instagram and was completely blown away with her expertise and dedication to fitness that I needed to check out her gym. I was hooked on the first day and now on my 5^th month of training. I fell into a slump from being active most of my life and needed that push that I only found at Elev8 to get back into a healthy lifestyle. The facility is top-​notch with a high energy ambiance and a great team of other expert trainers. Thank you Elev8!

If you are serious about training and want to get a good, quality work out in– Elev8 is the place to train at. Elev8 is a private gym that specialized in personal training and the owners Kat & Pham are really nice! No gimmicks, no joking around here– if you want to be serious about fitness and reach your goals, then come here.
I train at commercial gyms also, but coming here gives a different vibe. I feel more serious and motivated when training here because everyone comes into this gym with one thing in mind: a solid workout to attain their goals.
If you haven’t gotten a chance to check this place out, I definitely recommend it! It’s clean and well-​kept.

I am extremely pleased with the results I have seen with Ryan’s help as a personal trainer at Elev8 Performance. I started five months ago with Ryan. During that time I have lost 20 pounds and seven inches around my stomach. I no longer feel tired in the afternoon, I can lift around twice the weigh on my exercises than when I started, and in fact, I feel better now than when I was 20 years old.
Thank you Ryan for helping me improve my life.

Can’t say enough good things about this gym. This is a private gym that specialize in personal training. Every trainer is very knowledgeable and friendly. This is a place that you don’t have to be afraid to drop the weights like the other corporate gyms. This gym is great for anyone, from beginners to body builders to powerlifters!

Went in to take a free Intro session with Pham. I’ve been active for most of my life (weight training, running, martial arts and boxing) but by all means not a professional or amateur athlete.
With the hour plus I’ve spent with Pham, I could tell he really knows his stuff. It’s obvious he’s physically fit and a professional by appearance, but he provided me with so much detailed knowledge during my exercises. While training specific muscles, he explained the movement of the muscle, timing, muscle strain and flex, etc. While working on a simple incline bench press, he gave me knowledge I’ve never learned but made so much sense.
The gym is clean and has everything a functional athlete would want. Tires, sled, battle ropes, weights, etc. Very cool and positive vibe.

I’ve been a following Katrina and Pham on IG for about a year now. Seeing their lives collaborate and build a business they both feel passionately about was simply inspirational. They both work hard in regards to nutrition, working out, and balance. When they opened up this place, I told myself that I will workout there one day.
There are three types of people in the world:
1. Ones that make things happen
2. Ones that watch things happen
3. Ones that wonder what could happen
I live in the Bay Area and have a busy ass schedule; between my career, my kids, my gym, my education, and other things in my life (sports, volunteer work, reading, etc.), finding downtime seldom come to mind. I’ve gone through some financial waves but I put together a plan to not only take my kiddo to Disneyland but to also fulfill my quest.
Once I knew the dates I would be in Southern California, I reached out to both of them and told them that I will be coming down and wanted to workout at Elev8 Performance. I also forewarned them that Gavin will be w/​me. Not only were they both responsive and welcoming, they said that the have a TV/​Wii setup and if Gavin wants a challenge, Pham would game.
Met w/​Katrina and I was so giddy when I gave her a hug. I signed waivers and to my surprise, they did not charge me for working out there. Not all gyms are that accommodating and understanding. I made myself right at home and so did my little one.
There are cubbies to put your belongings in and a unisex restroom. No shower facility. This is a no frills gym. You come w/​the mindset to work the fuck out and if you are lucky, you will get to see athletes and celebrities from LVFT (Pham and many others), Shredz, BodyBuilding (
), MPK (Meal Prep Kingz), and the list goes on and on.
— 1 cardio machine (StairMaster)
— tractor tires
— steel weights (bars/​dumbbells)
— carries Flavor God seasonings
— LVFT apparel
— holding cooler for folks to pickup their meals from MPK
— artificial turf
Everything is well-​kept and cleaned religiously. Open atmosphere.
Happy to cross this off of my bucket list. I plan to do another session in January when I will be in town for the LA Fit Expo.
Gavin and I love it here.

This is the type of business that with ease lives up to its reputation of being one of the best around.
The outline
— easy to find
— Ample amount of parking.
— very clean
— brand new equipment with for a variety of trainings
— well lit and designed
— friendly staff and good atmosphere.
biggest bonus: it’s not the average commercial feeling gym, it’s a home like environment.
Must go!

AHHH! I love Elev8! As much as I hated working out. starting my training here with the bf was the best decision of our lives! Yes, we have gym memberships too. but unless you’re someone who is super serious about the gym/​working out. most likely 80% of the time you don’t know what to do at the gym when you’re there. Well that’s ME at least. I would go to the gym and do the same workouts and whatever I felt comfortable doing and that’s about it.
But here. this is when you are out of your comfort zone and get pushed to the max. Pham and his whole team here all know what they are doing. I literally am soaking wet after each session with Pham. We do different workouts each time and I swear, I am sore in areas that I’ve never been or even knew I can be sore in before. Thats the good thing about working out here! I am introduced to different and new workouts/​routines that I would’ve never done on my own! && also as I am dying during each workout, I look around and I see everyone else sweating and killing their workouts with their trainers as well. TBH that pushes and motivates me to work out harder as well!
I’ve also trained with Ryan for a week when Pham was out of town and he’s awesome as well! The trainers here are all good and really care for their clients. And don’t worry, if you want to have a female or male trainer. they will all equally kick your butt (in a good way) and make you sweat like you’ve never sweat before.
Thank you Pham & Kat! You guys and your gym are awesome!

I’ve been meaning to write this review for a while but I never got to it. So I first heard about Elev8 from social media but then my brother also mentioned that he just started working out there when they first opened. I was intimidated because everyone who works out there looked like they were in top shape… me I am not! I happen to also be following David (my trainer) on social media as well and noticed that he was starting out at elev8. I emailed him and he was very professional and caring from the start. We met in person and he reviewed the plan for semi-​private personal training and I ended up signing up with him. I have now been working out at elev8 for 5 months and I would have to say my life, my body and my attitude has changed so much! David has gone above and beyond to given me guidance on my meal plan and also he works with my wife and I to establish a schedule to come in every week.
Aside from David being awesome, I also must say that Pham and Katrina (the owners of elev8) are very welcoming and nice. Even with their busy schedules they have made time to get to know everyone coming into their gym and also treat us like family. And that’s exactly what Elev8 is, it’s a family and a place you can go to get in shape and also get guidance. I really love coming to work out here and no longer feel intimidated. Everyone is nice and welcoming and all the trainers are knowledgeable!

My husband and I started training at Elev8 Performance when its doors first opened. We signed up with Katrina and Pham even before meeting them which was crazy. After having our first meeting with Katrina and Pham, my husband and I knew we made the right choice in signing up with them. They are two of the most humble persons in the business!
At first it was intimidating going to a gym where you see all these people who are in excellent shape but knowing that everyone is there with the same purpose makes you feel at ease. Each person, whether it be the trainers, the trainees or members, are focused and encouraging. There is a sense of community and family at Elev8 that you certainly don’t get at a 24 Hours Fitness, LA Fitness or Gold’s Gym. The equipment and the workouts are on point; the facility is intimate yet versatile. For anyone who is looking to «elevate» their physique, Elev8 is definitely the place to be!

Very personal and open gym. Tons of energy and great people to make you feel at home. Staff is on point and Pham and Kat are above and beyond when it comes to courtesy and respect. I highly recommend this place if you’re looking to change up your gym routine.
