RJ is an absolutely amazing trainer! He is very motivated and keeps everyone motivated as well. He always makes sure to adjust workouts to meet everyone’s needs while also giving nutritional and overall body health information. My body and eating habits have improved so much since I started Underground Muscle. Best trainer ever!

RJ is a fantastic trainer! He is extremely knowledgeable and used that to personalize your workout to your body type. I have been going to sessions for a few weeks now and am already seeing great results. He not only helps you achieve your goals physically he also helps you get there yourself mentally through his encouragement and positive attitude. I would highly recommend him if you are serious about getting into better shape.

RJ is easily one of the best trainers that I’ve ever had. He always brings great energy into our workouts, and he always makes them enjoyable! I love going to his gym! Wish I had more time to go!

RJ is the first personal trainer Ive had the pleasure of working with and without a doubt he has far exceeded what I was looking for in a personal trainer. He is extremely knowledgeable when it comes to the entire spectrum of the personal training world, from nutrition to each individual exercise that we will be performing that day. I had meniscus surgery in early May and came to RJ upon completing physical therapy to work on getting my strength better than it was before. Immediately he began working on a strengthening program with a recommended diet to help me gain the most lean muscle in 12 weeks as I could. What I enjoy most about the way RJ looks at training is that he is very goal orientated. I came in with a vague goal of wanting to get stronger during his 12 week program and with the knowledge and experience that he brought to the table, he was able to help me expand upon my goals and make them a reality. Im sure that with RJs help, I, along with anyone who wants to make that first step towards becoming healthier can achieve their goals.

Wow... Where do I begin? RJ is absolutely spectacular. Having him as a trainer has not only changed my body physically, but my mindset as a whole. He is such a positive individual with so much energy. I look forward to each and every one of my sessions with RJ. An hour of hard work and meaningful conversation? Priceless. Every time I walk out of his door after my workout, a feeling of euphoria is upon me. Thank you so much, RJ. I can’t wait to continue working with you! Your passion is inspiring. Keep blessing this world with your hard work, and your presence. See you Monday!:)

Poor professionalism. Doesnt care about injuries. Charges 70/hr and works you for 30 min. He charged for per hour and said he was the best in the business. I did not get full hour sessions, I recommend discussing what you expect time wise. He just told me today that he didnt want to hear me say anything about my back during training. Be very careful what you sign. Fine tooth comb it! Be careful of promises, compare to whats in the contract.

Love working with RJ. I work with him through his online coaching and he has been very flexible in scheduling and working with me. He helps set attainable goals mentally and physically. He listens and caters my workouts to my previous back injury and listens to my feedback to adjust my workouts each week. He holds me accountable when it comes to nutrition and helps me fight my unhealthy cravings. When I was in town he even made time to workout with me to assess my progress to help better the workouts to me and my body. Highly recommend.

If you are looking for that extra piece of motivation to get you to your goals or someone to hold you accountable - RJ is your guy! He will perform the exercises with you when he notices your stamina is lacking and will always tell you to listen to your body. He is all about your overall health, not just producing numbers. Invest in yourself and give him a visit.

This guy gets 5 Stars from me. After 4 months, 30lbs gone. He has respect for my time, and for my bad knees. He knows what he’s doing. He guides you through the workout and explains everything well. You have to put in the work he can’t do that part for you. I highly recommend RJ!

I started this program about a month ago and I have truly enjoyed EVERY workout! It is always a big encouragement when you can see and feel the change in your body from week to week and with this program you defiantly can!RJ does an excellent job at pushing you to your fullest potential while keeping an encouraging attitude the whole time! Each workout makes you sore and is challenging but, if you just stick with it you will without a doubt be glad you did. Even though it is only my first month I would highly recommend this program to anyone who is willing to put in the work to reach their fitness goals.

RJ is great! If you want a trainer who motivates and teaches you, Underground Muscle is the place to go. RJ was willing to work around my schedule. When I injured my ankle last year, he didn’t let me skip a beat in our workouts. Instead, he taught me how to work out safely while my ankle healed. If you’re looking for a trainer who gets to know your needs and who will tailor workouts to challenge you, give Underground Muscle a call.

RJ Developed a fitness plan and a nutritional plan that helped me reach and exceed my goals. Thanks to his persistent help and encouragement over the last five years I have transformed my body to be physically fit, healthy, and Developed the confidence I needed to continue playing beach volleyball in college.

I have been training with RJ since October, 2018. This has been my first experience with a personal trainer, and the results have exceeded my highest expectations. In fewer than six months, I achieved my ideal weight. RJ provides a variety of fun and challenging workouts each week, tailored to my fitness goals, and he is always professional and energetic. 10/10!

Only having been a member for a little over a month, I am pleased to say I have seen drastic changes in my physique. RJ creates diet plans and workout routines centered around YOUR goals. He is always available to answer your questions outside of your training sessions with him, as I text him frequently with questions on my diet and workouts. The most valuable part of training with RJ is that I learn something new every session. I HIGHLY recommend RJ to anyone that is serious about changing their physique!

Review №35

Elizabeth is right on the money with everything she said. RJ is about as unprofessional as it gets. If I could give him ZERO stars I would.I came in today to address him for his rudeness and unprofessional behavior towards me and he tries to make it sound like its my fault. It was almost comical when he tells me to wait so he can turn on the security camera to record. I let him rant for a minute before listing out how he is late, cancels my sessions, and missed one session on 2 Feb. As soon as he heard that he broke out the checkbook and told me to get out. However he took his time to write the check... He knew he was wrong but he needed to feel like he intellectually bested me by saying how he has tons of money and he doesnt want to work with me because I dont have enough drive... No wonder the ladies next door park in his parking spot just to piss him off.Long story short stay away from this loser he doesnt deserve your time, sweat, or money.- - typical response from someone whose only leg to stand on is baseless lie. You cant even face the facts that we both substantiating by checking our calendars to prove you missed and canceled session on me. If any had invalid effort it was you. I served in the Army for 5 years I know the what my body can take way better than you do. On top of that I followed through with what I said I would do by getting the gear you recommended but you couldnt even follow through with sending the workout videos you supposedly made. The fact that your response was to come up with this baseless lie to spin it on me rather than owning your faults is pathetic - like I said before GOOD LUCK, especially with that attitude, you will need it.

I have just recently started going to Underground Muscle and it is amazing! I instantly clicked with RJ upon our first meeting and as we talked about my goals and want I wanted, I knew he could get me there. This is my first time having a personal training and I couldnt imagine having anyone else but RJ. He hypes you up and lets you know that this is an investment of yourself and a healthier lifestyle/future. He was exactly what I needed to stay consistent and be determine to live healthier/lose weight. Within the first week I felt like I could breathe better and didnt feel so sluggish moving around. Im super stoked to see the weight loss will be after a month with RJ!

I have been working with RJ now for about a month doing 1 on 1 personal training. I came in with no workout experience whatsoever and some concerns about body mechanics. RJ completed an assessment and helped me adjust certain exercises to work with my pre-existing condition. He has been very supportive and easy to work with! I highly recommend him!

I have been going to Underground Muscle for about a month now. I have not worked out in a gym for 27 years. RJ has been very patient with me in showing me the proper technique and modifying the exercises for me to be successful. RJS enthusiasm and encouragement has a contagious effect for the entire group no matter what their ages are, making it a very positive experience for everyone.

Finding RJ at Underground Muscle was what I needed after loosing my previous trainer. RJ really thinks outside the box and is in tune with your level of workout. There is such positive energy and motivation from him and others you work out with. Ready for a change in yourself and lifestyle, give RJ at Underground Muscle a try. You wont be disappointed.

Underground Muscle is the best place to work out and get results! I struggled for years with my weight, I tried diets, and exercised on my own but I nothing gave me results until I started working out with RJ in 2012; he has helped to reach my goals and maintain a healthy lifestyle.Getting in shape takes a lot of commitment and perseverance and RJ can truly help YOU to stay motivated and focused. Either at 7am or 5:30pm, RJ has always a smile on his face and a board full of workouts that will make you sweat!! Check out Underground Muscle, you wont retreat it.

Lately Ive been considering using a personal trainer. I have heard from several people say RJ Totten is highly reputable and has a passion for the personal training industry.

Review №58

Before I met RJ, I was considerably underweight and riddled with anxiety and self-confidence issues. For two months, I listened to my housemates rave about how good of a trainer RJ is. Ive had my stints with working out before, I even enlisted the services of other personal trainers to help me. I never stuck with it. The trainers didnt seem to be dedicated to my individual progress, and I didnt have enough discipline to continue the workouts on my own. I was skeptical to meet with RJ, to say the least.Eventually, they convinced me to go to a consultation with him. I decided to give it a try. At first, I couldnt lift anything. I started out struggling to deadlift 80 pounds. I was embarrassed of myself, but RJ wasnt. He saw what I could become, and each day he motivated me to do better. He would praise my success and help me push through my failure. Fast forward 9 weeks later, Im now deadlifting 220 and am at a healthy, normal weight for my height. Working out has become an integral part of my life, and I owe it all to RJ.RJ literally changed my life. He is not only my trainer, but he has become my good friend. If you are interested in achieving the body youve always dreamed of, contact RJ. He will absolutely go above and beyond to make sure you achieve your goals.

This is a great place to get the results you want. The trainer is very knowledgeable and will tailor every workout to fit your exact needs to produce the results desired. The atmosphere is awsome and makes you feel part of a family. UG has great people to workout with and everyone is always pushing each other to reach new goals. I have been going for approximately 2 months and I am seeing the changes I am looking for. I would reccomend this gym and RJ as a trainer to anyone who is willing to push themselves to improve themselves.

Underground Muscle and RJ Totten were actually and answer to a prayer. I needed help getting started and sticking with an exercise and weight loss plan. RJ has given me the encouragement and tools I need to be successful. I am half way to my goal of weight loss but more importantly I am so mobile and able to do things I havent done in 30 years. I have a different outlook on food and exercise which RJ has taught me. I work out with some of the nicest people around and yes we cry, laugh and joke but most of all we support each other on this journey. Health and fitness is a lifelong journey and without RJ and Underground Muscle I could not do it! Thank you for believing in me!

Review №62

First let me say that Underground Muscle is not a gym. Ive always felt very self conscience walking into a gym to workout. I didnt know what to do to get the effects I wanted and it was not a very welcoming place. Ive been going to Underground Muscle for 2 months working with RJ Totten and his staff. The atmosphere is very upbeat and friendly. Our exercise class is different everyday so, its never boring. RJ Totten is a very high-energy person with great morale boosting skills. You can tell that he really wants to share his knowledge and work with you to accomplish your goal...getting healthy. No, it is not easy and there have been days that Ive wondered what am I doing! :) Its hard work and RJ is there every step of the way. He has a structured program. All you need to bring with you is a will to work hard and a desire to get in shape. BTW....Ive lost 20 pounds and dropped down one size. I feel really good about myself! I actually look forward to the workouts now! Thank you RJ for keeping me motivated!
