My son gifted me sessions at Force3Fitness to help me get back into weightlifting and it was exactly what I needed! I had fallen out of the groove and wasn’t sure where to start again. We did virtual sessions over Zoom, and I also followed a personalized DIY workout program through the app. Everything was clear, structured and easy to follow. I had some prior hip issues that came up, and Schad adjusted my program and helped me strengthen the area without causing pain. I felt supported the entire time. In just 4 sessions, I felt stronger, more confident, and back on track with lifting. I am so grateful for the push and guidance!

I had an amazing one-on-one training session with Schad at Force 3 Fitness. He is incredibly knowledgeable and truly practices what he preaches. I learned so much from him and he introduced me to the maceball which I am now obsessed with.He pushed me to squat w/ a 73 lb kettlebell, something I didn’t think I was capable of, but with his encouragement and confidence in me, I did it.The gym is super clean and well-equipped. I highly recommend training with Schad if you are looking to challenge yourself and get stronger in a supportive environment.

I recently had the chance to do a semi-private workout at Force3 Fitness and was really impressed! Coach Schad brings a high level of professionalism and expertise to his coaching sessions. His attention to detail stood out right away. He’s the kind of coach who watches your movement, gives meaningful feedback, and clearly wants to help you get better.As someone who has dealt with pain and injuries in the past, I appreciated the time he took to modify any movements that bothered me to ensure that I still got a good workout in.The gym has a welcoming, focused vibe that makes you feel like you belong from the moment you walk in. If you’re looking for a place where coaching actually matters, Force3 is worth checking out!

HIGHLY recommend Force3 Fitness and coach Schad! My husband referred me to start training with Schad. I was a little intimidated at first, not sure what to expect since my husband is kinda insane with his workouts. Schad met me where I was at physically and helped me push from there. I didn’t think I would be able to keep up with my husband, but after 2 months I started doing most of the workouts he does! I’ve gotten considerably stronger as a result. Schad is always on time, prepared, positive, and energetic. So grateful that my husband & I can get strong together at Force3 Fitness!

Schad is the best trainer in the LA/OC area! Before I started training with Schad, I had chronic lower back pain, flaring up about every month. I didn’t really know how to exercise anything outside of my upper body and was doing what I knew with my bros. I’ve been training with coach Schad at Force3 Fitness for since 2018 and it’s transformed my strength & performance. Best of all, my back & legs are as strong as ever so I’m no longer afraid of injuring my back. He’s helped me train my wife, mother-in-law, and many of my friends. Highly recommend you check out Force3 Fitness!

I cannot recommend Schad highly enough as a personal trainer! His dedication to his clients' success goes far beyond just counting reps. What sets him apart is his genuine care for each client's overall well-being and his ability to personalize workouts to individual needs and goals.Schad has this amazing way of pushing you past your perceived limits while still keeping things safe and sustainable. His follow-up between sessions shows his commitment to your progress - he's not just there for the hour you train, but truly invested in your fitness journey.The workouts are always challenging but purposeful, and he has a knack for knowing exactly when to push harder and when to modify. Thanks to his guidance and encouragement, I'm becoming a stronger, better version of myself with each session.If you're looking for a trainer who combines expertise with genuine care and personalized attention, Schad is your guy. Best investment in myself I've made!

A buddy of mine was doing remote workouts with schad and recommended him to me. I was used to doing the same workout routine for years, too much cardio and some weights. He designed workout programs for me to do on my own to break out of my usual routine. My legs got strong & big because I usually neglected those. His style of training changed the way I train today. He was very accommodating, changing things that I didn’t enjoy or anytime I had joint pain.

My husband referred me to coach Schad at Force3 Fitness to help me get back to a fitness program after giving birth. I’ve always been fit and ran most of my life, but I had some nagging knee pain from a tibia break. I knew I needed assistance to build a strong foundation. Schad created a wonderful program that addressed my fitness needs and helped me bounce back post-pregnancy. I even went back to my original bodyweight after 4 months!! Highly recommend Force3 Fitness if you want someone to help you get fit!

Force3 Fitness is phenomenal! I've been attending the semi-private personal training sessions for 10 months, and it's been an incredible journey.Schad (owner & coach) uses a whole-body approach to fitness and wellbeing that truly works. Schad's dedication, kindness, and care shine through in every workout session and this truly sets Force3 Fitness apart. One of my favorite things about working out here is the variety of equipment and workout methods Schad incorporates. This includes using barbells, dumbbells, kettlebells, steel maces, steel clubs, and much more. These workouts will leave you feeling strong and energized!I highly recommend Schad and Force3 Fitness!

Force3 Fitness is an excellent place to workout mainly due to the attentiveness and knowledge that Schad brings as a trainer. Exercises are totally catered to your own goals and what you are looking to get out of it. I always feel extra motivated and get a much higher quality workout at Force3!

Schad has had a positive influence on my health journey! He is patient, supportive and very knowledgeable. His most unique quality is being able to quickly adapt the workout to my specific needs each time I come in. Each workout is different and I like that he focuses on stretching to avoid injuries. He is flexible and always ready to help in and outside of the gym.

2024-04-09T00:13:45.605Z

You want to get strong body and mind, this is it.Schad is a dynamite trainer and teacher. He focused on full body and proper form / technique. He pushes you to set and achieves goals and re-work those goals to get your results. Movements are focused and accurate to target whatever you require. His energy is off the charts and his sessions are always a good time. If I could give him 10 stars, I would!!
