Crunch

They use a separate billing company to handle their shady billing practices, so if you have a discrepancy on your account each company will tell you to handle it with the other. Very unprofessional, very unethical. Don’t give them your bank account information or any account they can auto deduct. If they were honest they wouldn’t need to contract out their dirty work to another company.

I love it here. Right around the corner from my house. Awesome mix of people. Memberships are appropriately priced. Staff is cool. All around great gym experience for your typical fitness junky.

Great gym. Plenty of free weights, bench press, and a squat rack was all I needed. Clean and friendly staff! Was able to give me a 1
Month membership during my winter break for a very reasonable price.

Friendly staff, the gym is impressively clean, even tho it’s a small gym the crunch gyms has kept a steady level of cleanness both on the floor and bathroom. I am a 24 hr fitness member and I can tell you by far crunch bathrooms are kept way cleaner and well maintained. Kudos to your company and staff for maintaining consistent standard with your faculties.

Simply put: a nice, clean and affordable gym. New equipment and only overly crowded during peak hours.
Also surprisingly better than both the nearby LA Fitness and 24 Hour Fitness, which are 5−6x the price.

This was the first gym I joined when I moved to San Diego and it really was like any new gym in regards to machines, space, and equipment with a very nice side room for classes and TRX. But that is not what my story is about!
I fell behind in payments because I moved and wasn’t getting mail to the same place anymore. I owed about $ 100 to the gym since I stopped going and just completely forgot about it. I let Matt, the GM know that I had moved and I probably wasn’t ever going to be driving that far so I would like to pay off my balance and cancel my membership. Matt went out of his way and worked out a deal with me to allow me to attend for the next year if I paid my due balance and let me know I could keep coming whenever I was in the area. He was super nice, super professional, and I definitely suggest anyone in the Kearny Mesa and Serra Mesa area attend this specific Crunch Fitness. The staff has always gone out of their way!!!
Although I won’t be attending as much due to the move, I felt extremely grateful for the gratitude extended to me. Thank you Matt!!!

I love the atmosphere, the equipment and the people here. I look forward to going to the gym almost daily because this place rocks. That’s not a normal feeling for me, definitely something new. The group classes are also great, and they’ve recently added even more, which is super convenient. Also I can bring in a guest to the classes, which is awesome. The classes really keep me motivated and in shape. I also tried the personal training and they all seem to really know what they are doing. Candon is especially good– I have fun during my workouts with him, and I am always smoked by the time we’re through. If you are looking to re-​energize your workout routine, or even your life, check this place out.

Love this gym. Great location and the staff is always friendly. I’ve been training with Tammarra for a few months and I have seen better results than I ever have with any other workout routine. She has not only helped me tone and strengthen but also given me lots of advice for my cardio routine and diet. She challenges me every session but still keeps me motivated and having fun. I always feel great after a session with Tammarra and I look better than I have in years!

A couple of months ago, me and my husband made the switch from 24 hour fitness to crunch fitness, and I can honestly say I am so happy we did! It’s a small gym, which means it doesn’t get super crowded and all of the staff are also super friendly and greet you every time. I paid for the highest membership so I get to bring a guest for free every time, which is awesome! And still the most expensive membership is $ 15+ less than 24 hour fitness per month.
But what makes my review a 5 star is mostly my experience with working with Tammarra. I’ve been training with her since I started at this gym, and she is amazing! I also go to her tread n shed class (think treadmills group class) and her trx class. What makes her great is that she really takes the time to teach you how to work out correctly and helps you fix your form so you get the best work out. She also comes up with really creative and fun ways to exercise. I no longer feel scared to venture over to the weights side of the gym. But most importantly, I feel like I’m getting the results I’ve been wanting since training with her… I’ve already dropped a dress size in less than 2 months!
I also heard they are going to remodel and expand to include a child care while you exercise. Love it!

Crunch is such a great gym and for many reasons. It is close and convenient, which limits my excuse to be lazy and not workout. The staff is always friendly and willing to assist you if you have any questions. Also, the gym is welcoming to all ages; I’ve seen everyone from young adults to grandpas and grandmas trying to get their fitness on! My only request would be to extend their weekend hours– as someone who works weekends it’s difficult for me to make it in to the gym due to their shorter hours. :) Oh and did I mention it’s extremely affordable?!

Everything you need without the crowds.
So glad Crunch has come to our neighborhood. This location has everything you need for a great cardio or weight training workout. The staff is exceptional, it’s clean and equipment is well maintained (unlike other gyms). It is never overcrowded so you can always get on the machines you need to get a great continuous workout. There is always parking. The price is right — definitely give it a try.

This gym is great in that it’s not over-​sized like other gyms but it definitely has the right equipment necessary for a full workout. It has its times where it gets busy but I believe that’s normal for any well-​functioning establishment. The gym staff is helpful and greet you when you walk in and out the door and personal training is available! I would recommend this to any of my friends.
INB4: Great gym, go here.
On a side note, I can’t work out to Justin Bieber so bring a pair of earphones if that’s not your taste. Have fun!

Currently training with an excellent trainer at Crunch Serra Mesa facility. Corey Graziani has been my trainer for almost 2 years now. Best money ever spent. I feel younger, stronger, more confident; my posture, my waistline, my muscle mass all have improved significantly. Training with Corey Graziani is a gift that just keeps on giving. I am very happy. I hate chicken breast but love Corey Graziani to the moon.

Less than 10 bucks a month for a brand new and super clean gym with complete equipments (cardio/​weights) isn’t a killer deal?! This gym gives extra motivation to work out every day! The staffs are nice but Omar and Matt are the best, thank you guys!

This gym is awesome! Very friendly staff, new equipment that is good quality, and for the cheapest price around! For what you pay, you can’t expect more.
For those complaining about the music… I find the music pretty good, though if you don’t like the music, wear headphones. I play my own music and don’t even notice the gym’s music.
I like having different brands of equipment. You can use the weight lifting machines made by hoist where your whole body moves with each rep, or you can use the standard machines. Definitely try this place out!

Crunch fitness let’s you bring a guest for free everytime your workout! omg! so Cinna B and I had time to kill before an event so we decided it’s better if we work out (vs pre party)…
it’s a pretty basic looking gym… rows of aerobic equipment (treadmills, bikes, ellipticals etc…) all facing the center of the gym… the other ½ was all the free weights and weight «machines»…
there is a single room for classes (so only one class at a time).
there is a room with a tanning bed/​hydromassage
from the quick rundown i got. there are 4 different price/​month levels…
starting at $ 10 for basic membership which includes use of facilities… excluding classes/​massage/​tanning/​guest
$ 20 adds on classes and free guests
$ 30 — can’t remember
$ 40/​month includes everything…
we did 30 min on the elliptical. super current equipment!
then 15 minutes on their circuit weights (i’m not sure what to call it)
i worked different parts of my arms and my abs… all self explanatory… and i’ve never used any equipment like it!
they are opening a crunch close to my house… i am thinking of joining.
will come back with Cinna for sure! thanks cinna =)

My only complaint: They play the worst music at this gym and they play it too loud! Hard to hear your own headphones over it at times. The other day it was R&B slow jams? In a gym?! Hardly gets you in the mood for lifting heavy weights or cardio. There’s a reason why everyone in the gym is wearing headphones, we don’t wanna hear your music. Please turn it down!
Aside from that, I like this gym a lot.
It’s inexpensive
Equipment is new
Not usually over-​crowded
It’s clean, including the locker room/​bathroom
Location is great for me
Friendly staff
This is a good gym. It’s on the small side but has everything you need and the equipment is clean and new. Good mix of people working out too. No judgements.
** For those complaining about the extra fees, not sure how you didn’t know about them since it’s explained to you when you sign up? It’s also printed on the membership paperwork they give you. And, it’s still hundreds of dollars cheaper per year than other gyms and sports clubs in SD. **

PROs: This is a great beginner to intermediate gym for the $ 19.99 a month. Mall the equipment is brand new and in great working order. Occasionally things break like all gyms, but the staff seems to get things fixed within 48 hrs or less every time. Has almost all equipment that you could want. I wish they had more benches that could be moved around the gym vice the ones just mounted in the floor. Also I wish there were Dumbbells above the 80lb mark. Adequate bathroom with lots of lockers. Nice tanning beds and hydra massage area too. Lots of personal trainers and they seem to do a great job with their clients. Also the staff responds very well to medical emergencies. I’ve witnessed that first hand three times here.
CONs: Like all gyms there are peak hours, especially in the evening time. Just work your schedule around that the best you can. There’s always staff members here, but sometimes I think they could be better served enforcing proper gym etiquette like ensuring people wipe down the equipment when they finish, keeping large groups from standing in front of other pieces equipment when their not using them, and making sure people rerack their weights.
After being a member here for over 4 months, I would recommend it to people who live in the neighborhood. All in all its a great gym for the low cost. I

The only good thing about the gym is that it is for the most part cheap, after the hidden charges. They charged me an $ 40 fee after 3 months on top of sign up fees and the monthly payment. This is due to an annul fee, I haven’t been here a year yet. when I called about it they said I was supposed to be informed at sign up and they are sorry the sale agent did not tell me, but nothing they can do about it now. The gym locations are small but clean. Overall it gets the job done, but for me they have lost the trust of the consumer.

Location, location, location. I love the gym, but only when it’s convenient to me and I don’t have to travel more than 5 minutes to get to it. I feel like I could easily do the same routines in my house than to waste 20 minutes to the gym.
However, I walk to this gym, it is so close to my house! I love it!!! Obviously, once I get to the gym, I work out harder than how I would’ve worked out alone in my house because… People are watching. This gym has hard, challenging classes, plenty of endurance machines and three substantial weight racks.
There are some high-​traffic times that should be avoided. Mon-​Wed 5−7pm. It’s bad. Like 20 treadmills occupied, bad.
I got a personal training session with Nick Schultz. I told him all my body issues and how I want different parts toned and of course, my need to lose ten pounds. Instead of rolling his eyes, he gave me effective work outs for all of my goals. I wish he gave me more nutrition advice, though, have you seen where I’ve checked in lately? That’s not a DIET.
