The community at this gym is very welcoming! It’s easy to get around and locate the equipment, beginner friendly. If you’re looking for a personal trainer, there’s plenty of amazing ones at the gym. It’s 24/7! I would say evenings can get busy, but it never feels too packed. Plus you’ll get a digital key to enter, so if you like to go late at night, no need to worry about you safety. Less

Throughout my fitness journey, I have had the privilege of being trained by Bolo whom I often refer to as “Coach D.” In 2017, Coach D played a pivotal role in shaping me into a fitness competitor. His relentless drive to see me succeed inspired me to push myself harder, break through barriers, and reach new heights in my fitness journey. His impact on my fitness journey is immeasurable, and I am grateful for the opportunity to have trained under his guidance. Thanks, Coach D!! Less

I love this place. The instructors are knowledgeable and really take their time to work with you. I've been seeing the results I want, and they are patient. Stay the course and you won't be sorry. They're the real deal. Less

The best trainer/ coach I have yet to come in contact with. He met me where I was and built my body brick by brick. His knowledge, understanding, and wisdom is vast and has many levels when it comes to programs to get fit and nutrition. I have been in the best shape of my life. He not only talks the talk but he walks, live, and is a perfect example of his brand . Someone i don’t mind following because the results show on him. He is an example and leader when it comes to this fitness world. One of the best trainers I know. If you come ready to work each time with his program you will see RESULTS . Thanks for following your vision to bring service to the people Less

There are a couple of ways to approach this review. For the beginner: Not a massive gym you will get lost in, yet still more than enough equipment to train every part of your body. Even the members are kind enough to point you in the right direction if needed. Now, let's think about WHY you want to be in the gym. There is some RESULT you are looking for. Heath, weight loss, a nice physique? Speaking from personal experience, I am knowledgeable about health and fitness. Versed in the hearth club, but I STILL knew I would benefit from some personal instruction! ENTER BOLO SWOLE FITNESS. I matched up with trainer "Bolo". Right away, I noticed on day 1, his goal was to really identify MY goal. Our meetings weren't simply a general script, but a personalized program. Understanding my fitness history, age, goals, etc. We began to train 2x a week. I will tell you, I looked forward to the workouts even though I knew they would be challenging, I knew my coach would be patient. My progress expanded passed simply weight loss and muscle toning. Sure, I was able to obtain those things, but my overall HEALTH noticeably improved, to my delight! I participate in sports and physical activity 🥊regularly. I also noticed markers athletically, which I found surprising at my age in the mid 40's! It was fantastic! Movement, speed, strength, all featured noticable improvements. What was new in this experience in my age was the RECOVERY from putting my body through all of this. I was convinced it was due to Bolo taking the time to help plan out my nutrition!! While men in the leagu, younger then I was, complained about aches & pains, I could tell the strength training prepared me for the impact, while the nutrient intake had me "ready to go" sooner due to my recovery. When your progress is noticable, your enthusiasm to continue and make it a lifestyle ALSO gets "STRONGER". Less

I had an exceptional experience with Bolo at Bolo Swole Fitness. His strong work ethic and attention to detail stood out, especially when helping me recover from a knee injury. Not only did he contribute to my recovery, but he also played a crucial role in strengthening my legs for my bodybuilding competitions. I won first place in my last show with him. His motivating and inspiring approach, coupled with genuine kindness, creates a positive environment. Expect to be pushed to your full potential under his guidance. Highly recommended! Less

The BEST physical and mental coach EVER the five stars isn't enough. He goes above and beyond to help you reach your goals. From nutrition to meal planning he hits your mind, body and soul when training. He's definitely a gem in the gym. Less

The reason why I’ve been so consistent for the past 3 years and continuously making progress is because of Bolo. Not only is he like a big brother to me but a damn good trainer. It’s because of him I know how to be strong and get stronger. Trust me, he’s a trainer first and one of the best people to have in your circle 💪 Less

I would highly recommend Bolo Swole, as a Fitness Coach. Bolo is not just a fitness expert, but his guidance and nutrition coaching is the perfect balance as well …Keep going 🦾 google ratings should’ve been 10 stars ⭐️ for you 🦾 Less

Bolo is an amazing trainer with so much knowledge not just in exercising but how to do the exercise. He explains thoroughly and has patience with his clients.
