After 2 years with Alloy, I am still here training with the coaches. My body fat is down 11% and my muscle mass is up 4%. With the help of Alloy, I did break the weight & fat gaining trend of my naturally aging body. Additionally, gaining more muscle mass stops natural age-related muscle loss. I cannot be happier with the result.Thank you Alloy and I will be keeping it up.Bonnie updated review 8/22/2026p.s. I am very happy to report that currently my personal best plank time is 2 minutes 33 seconds. This is a great improvement from 45 seconds 2 years ago. Coach Chuck said that this means my core endurance and muscular stability are getting stronger.**********************************************************Before joining Alloy, I have been actively playing pickleball at an average of 2 hours per day each week for the past 4 years. However, I still cannot lose the stubborn 20 pounds that I have been trying to lose. I need professional help. After I talked to the Alloy team about my intention, I decided to give Alloy a try. Alloy does not disappoint. Three months’ journey with Alloy has proved to be a rewarding journey for me. Not only did I lose around 8 pounds over the last three months, I also gained strength and muscle during the same time. I joined Alloy with an attempt to lose weight. However, through this journey with Alloy, I discovered that I also need to build muscle strength to offset or delay the loss of muscle mass due to aging. To age gracefully and powerfully as described by Janice, the owner of Alloy.I enjoy working with each and every trainer at Alloy, i.e. Destiny, Chris, Chuck and Javier. Additionally, the small group working environment provides a group of fun and encouraging teammates. Each session starts with warming up exercises, then followed by 6 sets of different format of workouts including but not limited to weight lifting, core building, etc. Lastly, we will do a stretch session to end the class. Each class has different exercises so one will not feel bored and there is always new workout to learn to do. In addition to training session, Alloy also hosts happy hours and seminars about healthy lifestyles from time to time. I highly recommend Alloy to anyone looking for professional personal training.Lastly, recently I read a book written by Dr. Peter Attia and I cannot agree more with what he said in his book so much so that I’d like to share a paragraph from Chapter 11 “Exercise: The Most Powerful Longevity Drug” from his book Outlive – The Science & Art of Longevity – “I think of strength training as a form of retirement saving. Just as we want to retire with enough money saved up to sustain us for the rest of our lives, we want to reach older age with enough of a “reserve’ of muscle (and bone density) to protect us from injury and allow us to continue to pursue the activities that we enjoy. It is much better to save and invest and plan ahead, letting your wealth build gradually over decades, than to scramble to try to scrape together an individual retirement account in your late fifties and hope and pray that the stock market gods help you out. Like investing, strength training is also cumulative, its benefits compounding. The more of a reserve you build up, early on, the better off you will be over the long term.”Review by Bonnie who enjoy working at Alloy!Snowy day January 5, 2025.
