An absolute gem of a gym here in Agoura! I’m a personal trainer and have run my own private business for several years now. With running my business comes renting from gyms so that my clientele can enjoy a fully functional workout program. Out of the 4 gyms I’ve ever rented from in the area, TTG is my absolute favorite and the ONLY one I rent from now. Alex, the owner and a trainer here, is incredibly welcoming, understanding, and a joy of a person to work with/around. He puts so much love and small details into the gym that you genuinely look forward to walking in the door. All trainers and clients here bring extremely positive vibes, the place is kept spotless (I would genuinely eat off the floors here -lol), and the amount of equipment is unmatched; free weights, machines, functional equipment and more make for extremely diverse workouts for all levels and goals. I have never experienced such a welcoming and comfortable setting for myself and my clients as I have here. I cancelled my own membership at a corporate gym I was going to because my workouts were way more superior here. If you’re looking for a place to find your solace for the day and get your sweat on, I cannot praise this gym and the trainers here enough! This is my home away from home❤️

This review is long overdue! I found this gym through a friend who raved about it and thought I’d give it a shot since it looked super private! It sounds crazy but I make the 45 minute drive from playa vista to come here and I NEVER regret it (besides the next morning😂) I’m not one to go to a large gym because I was always intimidated by the equipment that I did not know how to use and not a fan of crowds…at all. Not only do they push you to do your best, but it is so much fun! The trainers genuinely care about your health and body. I cannot thank them enough!If you are thinking about taking the next step in your fitness journey I HIGHLY suggest trying this gym/training team you will be so happy you did.

This is not a traditional gym where you go and just workout. The trainers are amazing and they emphasize on personalizing each of their client’s workouts according to their fitness needs. It is a very positive upbeat atmosphere and anyone of any fitness level can fit right in and have great results.

The training grounds is a great place to train! It’s not crowded, is extremely clean and everyone is super nice. It is the perfect gym. I have worked out at many gyms over the years and The Training Grounds is by far my favorite!!!

Great gym with awesome trainers! Alex and his team are always so friendly. Alex creates programs specific to individual needs and is a great motivator with tons of information on health, fitness, and nutrition. The gym is always very clean and doesn’t get overcrowded. Highly recommend if interested in personal training!

Alex is an incredible personal trainer! He takes the time to get to know his clients on a personal level and really specifies your goals with a practical timeline to get you there ASAP. His friendly and uplifting personality makes it a pleasure to work out with him. I highly recommend him.

I was hesitant to try personal training because I live with chronic musculoskeletal pain and was afraid I wouldnt be able to keep up or meet a trainers expectations.Alex, the owner of The Training Grounds, has completely changed my perspective on personal training. He has taken the time to identify my limitations and has tailored a program uniquely specific to my needs. He demonstrates professionalism, patience, empathy, and is a great motivator! His gym has a well-thought-out layout with substantial floor space to train and not bump into others (which is great during a pandemic). It is immaculately maintained, has quality equipment (which you never have to wait in line for). If youre looking for an unparalleled gym, The Training Grounds is it.

I loved working with Alex and will continue to work with him whenever I get the chance. A very friendly and warm environment to start getting into a fitness routine!

If you need a real trainer that will customize your nutrition and workouts according to your goals look no further! You’ll find Experienced highly trained independent personal trainers at the training grounds. This place offers the essentials in free weights and cardio equipment without the public crowd. The training grounds is sanitized hourly has adequate air ventilation allowing proper air flow through the bay door. One can Feel safe and in professional hands when visiting the training grounds for that rewarding yet gritty training session. You won’t be disappointed! I guarantee it ✊🏽

This is a fantastic medium sized gym with all the equipment of a full sized franchise gym. It’s definitely much cleaner than the bigger gyms, yet no where near as crowded. There are a perfect variety of trainers there for pretty much anyone’s needs. Its definitely an ideal gym for those who are just getting serious about their fitness, those who are fitness fanatics and everyone in between. It’s the real deal over there!

Alex Perper and the other trainers (Houda!) at the training grounds are phenomenal. Total professionals - incredibly motivating, knowledgeable, fun and understanding all at the same time. The facilities are also top-notch - a fantastic studio. I have been a client for years, and now my teenage daughter is as well. Can’t recommend Alex, Houda and the whole team highly enough. Do yourself a favor and check them out.

Where do I begin? I have so many great things to say! Not only is Alex one of the kindest, most supportive people Ive met, but hes also the type of trainer that makes you want to work harder and reach further. He knows my limits, and pushes me just enough to grow past them each session. Ive been training with him since 2017 and he helped me lose around 20lbs in a short amount of time through guided diet and exercise (and keep it off!). I was so thrilled to start training in his new gym, and when I walked in I was even more thrilled. Its clean, private, spacious, and has all the equipment you can think of. Im proud to say that I train here, and even more proud to consider Alex my friend. Heres to many more years staying fit and healthy at The Training Grounds 💪🏼

It’s CLEAN and they have great equipment.Don’t you hate it when you go to a gym and the machines are not ergonomically correct? No problem here , Alex knows the machines and equipment to get to have you move ergonomically and bio-mechanically correct.He cleans them all the time also.Where can you find a gym that has hanging gym rings, punching bags w gloves, and every little contraption you can think of?Great people, xlnt trainers, clean and friendly environment.I’ve numerous trainers from Woodland Hills to Camarillo, this is the BEST place I’ve been to.If you’re serious about getting into shape, then go here and ask for Alex or Arie.

Awesome gym with a great atmosphere and good people. Private and never too crowded. Tailored for any athlete or gym goer.

The workplace here is open welcoming not to mention great precautionary Measures taken they clean their weights they clean the area I love working out here personal atmosphere I’ve had a good chance to meet every trainer basically definitely will be spending a lot of time here in the future

Owner and chief trainer Alex is an experienced guide in helping clients set goals to achieve short term progress and long term success. Highly recommended especially for those who need an accessible entry point towards a healthier lifestyle.

The Training Grounds is amazing— it’s a smaller private gym so it’s never packed and always really clean! The owner and trainers there are super knowledgeable and accommodating (one on one training without the distractions/mess of a corporate gym!!). Always good music, cold water, clean towels, and good vibes!! I would definitely recommend to any and everyone!

The training grounds is the perfect spot for individuals who are serious about their results and workouts. Perfect environment and energy. Everything you need compacted into one. Trainers here are all friendly and know exactly what they’re doing. Amazing establishment.

Great spot to train! Its a friendly yet private gym and when I train either myself or my clients there, its more comfortable for us girls to really push it hard as we dont have to worry about making loud embarrassing grunts because it is so private. The owner Alex is easy-going and easy to work with. Id recommend this place to trainers and to my clients.

Amazing facility. Amazing trainers. If you are in the Agoura Hills/Calabasas area and need somewhere to train look no further. Alex has provided me with tools needed for weight loss and toning. He has kept me motivated on my fitness journey and has made me feel great about my progress along the way.

Alex Perper is more than just a trainer, he truly cares about his clients. Here’s how I know:I’ve been a client of Alex’s since my (late) husband and I first met him in January 2010. Throughout the years Alex has guided me through significant weight loss and strength training. Even more than that he’s taught me about nutrition, been beneficial to my mental health, and over all well being.These last couple years after losing my soulmate, have been really challenging. Healthy lifestyle was replaced by bad eating habits and no exercise. However, the time also included quite a bit of introspection and growth; and I’ve finally reached a point where I’m ready to care about myself again.I’m grateful to Alex who would periodically check in with a text or a call, or a meet up just to see how I was doing, and always let me know he was there if I ever needed him. He’d remind me to give myself permission to take the time I needed, and when I was ready we’d not only get me back to where I left off, but better than before.So I believe the timing of Alex reaching his goal of finally opening his own (BEAUTIFUL!) gym and me being ready to re-invent myself, well it’s no coincidence. Because what I know is that The Training Grounds is the perfect environment for me, that I’m ready to challenge myself, and that Alex’s experience, knowledge, compassion, and professionalism makes him the perfect trainer and friend to entrust with the job of guiding me to my goals.Stay tuned.

One of my favorite gyms to work-out in. Feels private and the treadmills have a nice greenery view. Definitely would recommend anyone to bring their trainers here!

Outstanding experience. The workouts have been geared towards reaching my goals and the results have been remarkable. Thank you for your help and professional service.

Brand new equipment, great music/sound system, and amazing trainers that are very knowledgeable and passionate about fitness transformations. Love coming to work out here!

Wonderful staff with very charismatic attitudes and extensive knowledge of how to correctly train individuals depending on their needs and limits.

Just a great place to work, love the other trainers here
