After trying a few different diet and exercise routines, I was referred to Stark. I’ve been at Stark for 3 months now and getting great results. Between the doctors, nutritionists, and trainers, the team at Stark has really transformed me physically and mentally. At 40 yrs old, I can honestly say that I’m in the best shape of my life...I’m excited to continue on this journey with them. Thank you for everything!

I am 65 years old and have been a Stark client for coming up on 3 years. Without question they have helped me improve my overall health and fitness with a well thought out and executed plan. I am stronger and healthier than I have been in a long while and would highly recommend their holistic approach to ones well being to anyone who cares about their overall wellness.

A well-rounded team! I can see changes in my body after only a month. I am growing stronger every time I go to Stark. In addition, I have one of the best trainers, Crystal has been a God sent to me. She pushes me to do better in the gym and out of the gym. If you want someone that urges you to work hard and has fun with you. Crystal is your gal!

Stark is a Team. They are warm, welcoming and extremely effective at delivering a well rounded fitness program. I set the goals and they turn those into an optimal combination of exercise, nutrition and recovery. We then collaborate to execute. The experience is very personalized and is distinctly superior to any program/gym I’ve previously been a part of.My progress at Stark would be impossible without my coach.Crystal is incredibly focused. She expends an extraordinary amount of effort into understanding her clients’ goals, strengths and weaknesses. Her approach is therefore very targeted. She emphasizes quality and rigor; I have better habits as a result. Her knowledge and experience are only one part of the equation, her energy and caliber is yet more impressive, wether I’m her first student for the day or her 8th there is no distinction in her dedication.The end result will ultimately depend on ones own effort, but Stark delivers the rest to near perfection.

Since starting with Stark, I have not only transformed my body, but I have also significantly improved my overall health! On top of losing 25 lbs, my cholesterol numbers have seen a remarkable decrease. Stark’s naturopathic doctor helped me get my total cholesterol down nearly 50 points, my triglycerides went from 285 to 53!!! My primary care medical doctor is ecstatic. Thanks to the whole team at Stark especially Bianca for all their help and support!

Stark has been an awesome experience helping me on my fitness journey. My coach Crystal is awesome taking a very personal interest in my success. I could not do it without them. The rest of the team including Coach Madison are incredible and it feels like a whole fitness family encouraging and motivating each other. Stark is now a huge part of my life and I will be forever grateful !!!

Ive been working out here for 5 1/2 years, and at 62 years of age am in better shape now than in my late 20s. My trainer, Crystal, keeps me on track, always scrutinizing my form to ensure I get the most out of every workout without injury. Ive had a number of personal trainers over the years, but Stark is by far the best.

Stark is everything you need for optimal health, and more! From the naturopathic MD to the chiropractors, personalized nutrition plans, hand tailored workout programs, and even the top notch coaches, it is so clear they all will do whatever it takes to help you succeed. Only come when you are ready for REAL, meaningful change, because that is exactly what you’ll get!

Review №15

I’ll be the first to admit, six weeks ago - food logging, blood tests, supplements, plus weight based training did not appeal to me. I like fun workout classes. I’m too busy for all of that other stuff. I hate needles. Yet, some friends of ours were so darn excited about their experience! It got me wondering. Today, I am thankful the bloodwork showed me the food sensitivities to avoid, I happily log my food and am cheered along (or kindly reminded) as the days go by + I always look forward to my weekly training sessions with Crystal and the rest of my stark team. I am seeing results and will continue to make these small changes that now know will help me keep my health and well being a priority.

Stark is a unique gym that takes a very different approach to getting you into shape. It’s a refreshing change from your typical gym. Everyone I’ve worked with has been amazing especially my trainers Crystal and Dylan.

Review №23

Stark is the BEST! I first became interested in Stark when I began to see some amazing results in a few of my girlfriends who suddenly looked so sculpted and toned. I went in for a consultation and so happy I did! It’s much more than a gym. You get a team of skilled professionals working with you to customize a program that’s unique to you. I’ve always worked out and been a pretty healthy eater, so I was a little skeptical that I wouldn’t see any major results. Three months in and I can’t believe how good I feel. It’s made me rethink my entire approach to health and fitness. I sleep better, have so much more energy, no more lower back issues and my body is the most toned it’s been in years. Plus, I find I’m actually spending much less time at the gym and fitness classes then I used to, and I’m seeing much better results.You’ll get a specialized plan and train with one of their amazing trainers based on what suits your schedule. Your program changes every six weeks based off of you and your trainer’s feedback. I love how customized everything is and efficiently they manage your workouts. The staff are all super friendly and it’s a very welcoming atmosphere. I can’t recommend Stark enough!

Staff is always friendly and willing to help and explain exercises and the benefits.Also having a complete body test, blood test and vitamins have helped me to see what is good and bad for my body and since the test results I have made several changes in my diet and feel great! :)Keep the hard work going Stark!! 🙌🙌

You will love the results you get from the holistic approach at Stark! I have been training at Stark for almost 4 years. The culture of the organization is amazing. The leadership have built a integrated approach to training. Its more than just exercise, but also nutrition, health care (with Dr. Alice) and body work with the chiropractors. The trainers are very knowledgeable and encouraging. Rolandas puts together interesting, varied work outs.

Stark Newport Beach is a fantastic place to work out. I love their holistic approach to training, nutrition and overall wellness. i have seen great results since i started working with the Stark team back in February. The trainers are great and really know what they are doing. All of the staff are super friendly and it feels more like family than any other gym I have been to.

If Stark were a car, it would be a screaming red Ferrari ... a highly-precise machine capable of extraordinary things. Stark is not a gym; it is a whole-body transformation center. Its trainers are technicians who focus on every detail, understanding that the little things are in fact the big things that lead to tremendous results. I highly recommend Stark to anyone who is interested in living the best life possible. Definitely a 10 out of 10!

Stark is not only the most elite training facility in Orange County but also offers a complete 360 suite in overall wellness. A one-stop shop for inner and outer health. I love the staff, and their culture - they challenge you, they push you, and they make you feel right at home! If youre ready for change, join! You wont regret it!

I guess I must be an original, been going to Stark since opening of the Irvine gym, maybe in 2011. Amazing coaches and staff, love them all. They are family and make working out as pleasant as can be for someone who was never a gym rat. The coaches are far more than coaches to me, theyre brothers, sisters, life coaches, doctors...…...you name it. I cant imagine every going anywhere else, though I do tease them about going to 24 Hour Fitness if they push me too hard. Thanks for the effort and putting up with me all these years. First in Irvine and now in Newport.

Stark is the best training facility in Orange County hands down and I have trained at a variety of different gyms. What makes this place the best is the quality of the staff and trainers there and how much they care about your health and well being. I have been driving 40 miles one way for the last 4 years to train with Richie and I dont have any plans of finding somewhere closer to train because its that awesome of a place to train at.

Stark is incredible. You think you know what a gym is, and you quickly realize that you dont. You think you know what a Doctors Office is, and you quickly realize that you dont. Stark delivers the best atmosphere and plans to get you in the best in the best shape. At the end of the day, they truly care about you and whats best for you. They are focused on me and not themselves. 10 Stars

One of the most inviting environments to train in. They understand my goals and have helped me formulate more focused ones and execute them. They have developed a personalized training program for me and have continued to support me and my goals as I peruse them. Great facilities and great people! Also Crystal told me to say shes the best trainer. :)

I’ve been training at Stark for almost three years and seen great results in my overall health, fitness and energy. I like going to one place for medical, nutrition and fitness.

This place deserves more than 5 stars! Been training with Stark for 1.5 years. The quality and care from the top down is the best I’ve been apart of in my 20 years of training at multiple gyms.. They create a unique training experience that caters to every level, motivate and create a fun environment to train in. It’s a one stop shop for everything with Chiro/soft tissue services to high level blood work and custom programs if you want it. They’ve nailed it!

I have been going to Stark for 3 years. I love my trainer, Bianca, but all of the trainers I have used have been phenomenal. By using the Stark method, i have tons of energy, look better in my jeans, and feel great! I have learned so much about exercise, nutrition, sleep, and overall health consciousness. I can work longer, run faster, feel stronger, and enjoy my family and life more!

The second Stark location in Newport has the same vibe and experience as the original location in Irvine; however, I love the new look! And the location is amazing on PCH and Newport Center. Not only is Stark fantastic for achieving any one of your health related goals, but I also found my girlfriend there!

I used to be a student of Stark and I loved it so much that I became a trainer. This is by far the most integrated facility I’ve ever been a part of Stark is a place you can get a Doctor, Chiropractor, and Coach under one roof. Stark is like a family and everyone communicates with everyone so if make the process nearly effortless giving you a chance to focus on yourself while we worry about the rest.

The BEST gym that I have ever been a part of. Stark is a 360 fitness experience and has state of the art equipment, but the gyms best feature are the trainers/coaches! Very friendly and extremely knowledgeable, they will make you feel welcome and tailor each program to your personal fitness goals. amI looking forward to continuing my fitness journey with Stark.

Stark will quickly become your second home and second family! The staff here sincerely care for everyone who walks through the doors, and having a holistic wellness team means that all your blood work, nutrition, chiropractic/ortho concerns, and training all work together to create the best version of you. Whether you are looking to get out of pain, get stronger, eat healthier, age gracefully, or just live better, Stark is the perfect place for you!

Review №49

Really the best facility because of their complete approach to your experience that includes Dr. Nguyen guiding your supplemental needs and Dr. Gundlach and Dr. Cheng helping with recovery. The trainers are diverse and really know their stuff. I am pretty strong for a sixty year old and I am proud to say it. The trainers push and nudge you to think about taking care of yourself. I have cooked for their clients and my clients look amazing. The trainers know I neglect meal prepping for myself sometimes and remind me to take that time for myself. They keep you focused!!!! I am now more focused on meal prepping for myself to really try and look as amazing as my clients. I love the atmosphere and the trainers camaraderie and care. They know how to get the best out of you and it is so fun doing it!!!. I just want look better naked and be really strong and I think they are going to get me there. Thank you all!!!!

Ive been coming here for roughly 5 months now and I cant say enough about the experience at Stark. The coaches and team want you to win. They tailor a program geared towards what YOU want to achieve, whether it is fat loss, muscle gain, athletic performance, etc. They start from a baseline, lay out a plan to achieve your goal (fitness + nutritional), and the rest is up to you. Personally, I like Coach Crystal :)

There really is no place like Stark. Before training here I was always fearful of weight training, afraid that I would get bulky. So for years I focused on cardio only. However, now that Ive been training at stark for the last month I would never go back! I feel myself toning up, Im seeing definition and overall I feel stronger. And not only that but Im seeing the benefits of naturopathic medicine and chiropractics on top of it!

💯💯💯World-class health, wellness, and fitness pros! I have never left a Google review in my life but feel genuinely compelled to shine a bright light on this awesome place!The amazing Stark team first caught my attention from 2200 miles away with their Stark Naked Radio Podcast. The podcast is full of smart, fun, life-changing information and interviews with brilliant guests, all presented in a very digestible format. Listen if you haven’t, you won’t believe how fun they make learning about your body. They talk about it all 🍑🧠💪🏼💩🥗💊❤️😴I just knew their enthusiasm for health and fitness made them the type of health professionals I needed to connect with, so I traveled out to Stark Fitness in Newport Beach, CA for the “Ultimate Package.” The 360 experience exceeded my expectations and continues to reward me from across the US through nutrition and fitness programming and regular check-ins from the “mother ship” lol! This dynamic group of caring professionals are eager to share their A+ homework to improve others’ quality of life!Sincerest thank you to Todd, Tyler, Dr. Alice, Amir, Brian, Maddison, Justin, Bianca and all the other welcoming faces. Y’all make Stark burst with good healthy vibes and so much FUN!!!Stay Awesome-est 🤗 XOXO from Bama
