Transform FX Fitness Bootcamp

Thanks Josh, Monica, Robin, Dionne and Ale for helping me exceed my fitness goal. The workouts, nutrition plan and your support is what I needed to get back into shape after 3-​years of grad school. My fitness was on a downward spiral until I met you wonderful people. It took me 3-​weeks to lose the 15 lbs I gained in 3-​years. Thanks TFX Team!

Just completed a 3 week weight challenge and met the goal. This place is great. The workouts are challenging but rewarding. Besides the weight loss, I feel stronger. The trainers are very knowledgable and so encouraging. They are attentive during the workouts to correct improper form so as you don’t hurt yourself but push you to work as far as you can. They always provide modifications which I really appreciate. I attended different classes almost daily because of my schedule yet never felt out of place. the other participants are very friendly and encouraging as well.

Early this year I decided to lose weight and after failing on finding good a gym and good diets to do. I saw a transform fx add on FB. So I immediately signed up for it I had nothing to lose. Except FAT.
One of the things that I loved about this place is that the members and past challengers welcome you with with such joy, they’re supporters and encourage you at every stage.
I love that they have a 5:15 am class and a lil area for the kids.
I got to work with Robin one of the trainers,
and she is AmAzing always giving me an extra push!
I did the 6 week challenge I lost 20lbs
I couldn’t be happier, every day was hard but it was worth it :)
Thanks fx fam!!!

I began my first challenge January 4, 2016. I never imagined the impact it would have on my life. The Transformed Fitness team is so knowledgable and encouraging. I went from a size 22 to a size 14 and feel so much better about myself. I have battled fibromyalgia since my early 20’s and have lived with daily pain believing it was just what I had to do. Through learning how to eat healthy and how to exercise the correct way, 90% of my pain is gone. When I see friends who haven’t seen me since before the challenge, they notice I have lost weight, but not only that, they say my face looks brighter. I figured out I’m no longer wearing my pain in my face because it’s not there! This experience has been invaluable! I highly recommend it to anyone who is willing to listen to their coaching and willing to do the work. You will be rewarded beyond belief!

I joined the 6 week challenge in April, 11 and last Saturday I had weight out. I lost 21 lbs.
This journey was amazing. I met a lot of awesome people. I used to go there 6 days a week, and we had even our morning team. I have to say, I loved the bootcamp, I loved seeing those smiling faces every morning. It was the best way to start the day. It was the best motivation not to give up and keep reaching my goal.
No matter how hard it was, everybody was motivated and ready to do more than he could! I want to thank Dionne Davis and Robin Martinez. They are awesome, they were always very helpful. Their workouts were just amazing and they pushed us to our limit.
Sometimes, it was very hard to work out the schedule because of my baby, but I made it and I am so proud of myself. I have recommended already the bootcamp to my friends.
I learned a lot about my body. Now I know what helps me best to stay in shape.
I am going to join Transform FX team as a member. Highly recommend it to all, who have any concerns. This is a great place, great nutrition program, that really works, and great people, supporting you down the road.

This is an awesome place to workout.
The day I walked into Transform FX fitness Bootcamp I weighed 222.6 pounds and wanted to do something about it. Joining them have given a new definition to my life. The coaches are amazing and the support they provide are out of this world. I would recommend this bootcamp to anyone who want to change the lifestyle.
Since the first day I walked into bootcamp started doing a workout program and the diet plan, I’ve lost 44.6 lbs and have dropped several clothes sizes in 13 weeks. I feel great. Everyone who sees me now tells me how good I look. All I can say to Transform FX fitness Bootcamp is thank you for a great place to work out and changing my life.
All is say to TFX Fitness is to keep doing what they do well and change peoples’ life.

I lost 21.6lbs with this boot camp! The toughest part for me was the diet. The first week I was dying… (Lost 11lbs in one week) But I didn’t give up! I pushed through the workouts, worked out 6 days out of the week (CARDIO) and got my money back. I would recommend this program to anyone who is looking for fast results. Stick to the diet & you won’t have a problem. Thanks again TFX!

Well what can I say… I started out weighing 163.2 and weighing out 145.6 losing a total of 8.5 inches from my waist! Although I did not lose the 20 pounds I am so very grateful to have joined the 6 week challenge.
The team at tfx is more then helpful, they help you strive and stay focused on your goal. They have a group on fb that is very helpful! Everyone is there to support you and share recipes and just share their daily struggles or even accomplishments.
The workouts at the boot camp are amazing, each day you are working your whole body but always a different focus. You will feel sore! But that’s the best part :) that’s when you know you’re workin that body! :)
Dionne, Ale & Monica are such great trainers! They keep you on your feet and wanting more! They are there cheering you on and believing in you even when you aren’t believing in yourself! They are angels.
I finished my 6 week challenge feeling happy, healthier and definitely with more Confidence in myself! I will continue to smile and keep on keepin on till I get to where I wanna be!
If you are on the iffy side about joining please just take my advice and just do the damn thing! Because not only will you thank me you’ll thank the tfx crew and most importantly yourself for doing your body a favor.
You will learn to have more control of your mind body and soul & to obtain the nutrition and correct way to eat and live a healthy lifestyle.

Smartest workout I ever joined, they have great trainers that care about you hitting your goal. A great and easy meal plan to fallow, a face book message center that helps everyone stay in touch .
If your dedicated toward losing 20 pound, you will loose a lot more than that .
This place succeeds where others fail, don’t be afraid just do it !
I lost 24.4 lbs in 6 weeks and I feel great, more energetic and overall more happier.

I would like to thank TFX for the wonderful opportunity and the experience I had with the program. All of the coaches were supportive with a great attitude, always willing to help with anything, questions, concerns, they would always be open to help you and listen to you. The boot camps was my favorite part of the program. They were so much fun and always looked forward going to class. I would recommend this program to anybody who is willing to put some time, effort, dedication and discipline. If I was able to do it, why not you? I encourage you to do it, you won’t regret it. I’m so pleased with my results. Thank you again TFX!

This place is just plain amazing… if you’re ready to put in the work!
Amazing coaches, amazing members and an amazing workout and nutrition program. Did I tell you this place is AMAZING???
I just can’t say enough great things about Transform FX. I’ve gone through a 6-​week challenge last year and lost 24+lbs, but relapsed after some difficult personal challenges. Called the TFX leadership team and told them I was ready to come back and lost 29lbs in 9 weeks, not quite to goal, but an amazing journey nonetheless.
They really give you the tools to make better eating choices (which is the hardest part, in my opinion) and the group workouts are guaranteed to make you sweat.
If you are ready to make a positive difference in your life, call Transform FX right now. No seriously. Do it!
(NOTE: Transform FX did not pay me to write this review.)

I heard about this through Facebook and thought it was just another «lose weight scheme», but it’s the exact opposite! I attended the info session and was inspired right away! I pledged to a 12 week challenge and had a goal of 40lbs to lose! I hit 44lbs lost at week 9 and have changed my life! I continue to work hard, with TFX’s help, to proceed to my next goal! The trainers here treat you like family and are amazing! TFX is like a big family and people take care of you! I truly truly recommend this for anyone ready to make a life change and get healthy! While also losing weight!

I want to thank the staff at TFX. Alejandra and Dionne you guys are the best. Thanks for making my journey a wonderful experience. My wife is now a member and I will continue to FTDI because she is. You made me believe I could do it and I did. It was a great experience and I would recommend it to anyone.

***They try to keep your money even if you lose 20lbs*** (last paragraph explains more)
**Loved P2P if you’re looking for a Bootcamp program**
I did not like this gym. I made the mistake of not continuing with P2P in concord and thought maybe this would be the same. It definitely was not. The «hour workout» was in reality 10 minutes of stretching 10 minutes of learning the workout and 20 minutes of actually working out which did not get your heart racing until damn near the end. Then you did a cool down for 10 and you were done. The fake grass is also not pleasant to work out on especially since we witnessed a dog go to the bathroom (at the final weigh out) on it and Ale the manager simply picked up the poop, did not clean or spray it, which makes me question the sanitation of the equipment including the mats we lay on as well. They also have very limited times to workout which are required, P2P was available damn near all day every day which made it easy to meet the requirements.
The only positive things I can say is that Robin, an instructor, was very helpful and sweet and she was literally the only person who was in shape that made me feel better about being there with her as my instructor. That’s it. I believe in leading by example and to be taught by people who are not in shape themselves makes me question the program. It’s like getting financial advice from someone who filed for bankruptcy.
***Getting a refund***
I was told that even though the contract I signed stated that I want to lose 30 lbs and it states if you have 40 lbs or more you would automatically do a second challenge. They tried to withhold my money, telling me I agreed to doing a second one. Once I proved that contract does not say anything about having to continue, unless you had 40 or more to prove, they tried to make me do a 3 week challenge to lose the last 10lbs since I said 30lbs, something else that is not stated in the contract, they kept trying to tell me I had to abide. I lost my 20lbs and I did not want to continue. So I had to tell them I would fight them, talking my sister who owns a lawfirm and to my credit card company since the contract stated I was not in the wrong, i had the proff. They eventually said that I «technically had to do a second challenge» but they would still give me a refund?
Horribly way to run a business. My advice? Go to P2P, they had actual workouts with actual certified trainers who were in shape.

AMAZING!!! I lost 45.2lbs in 13 weeks! This program really changed my life. I have not been in a great place in my life for the past year or so. Very unhappy with the way I looked and it was just easier to drink a bottle of wine and forget about it than go for a run every night. I went back home to Connecticut for Thanksgiving and had this really depressing conversation with my parents about family medical issues and it just did not sit well with me, I knew I had to do something before my health got any worse. I saw an ad on Facebook for this challenge, went to the orientation to see what it was about and said to myself, its now or never.
This was not an easy thing to do. That’s why its called a CHALLENGE. I had to sacrifice my social life for 3 months (I did 2 challenges). I knew I would do well with the workouts, I love the boot camp style workouts, I have done it before and I knew this type of exercise would keep me going. It was the diet part that was difficult. That has always been my struggle. Buy they laid everything out for you as to what you can and cannot eat. IF IT’S NOT ON THE LIST YOU CANNOT EAT IT!!! The Facebook group is extremely helpful. Tons of support from fellow and former challengers along with recipes and ideas for meal prepping.
Everyone’s body is different so this program can’t be 100% successful but from my experience if you FTDI (Follow The Damn Instructions) you will have great results in 6 weeks, whether its the 20lbs or even 10lbs, your life will change for the better!
I worked with Dionne the most and she is just amazing, her arms alone are an inspiration (one day my arms will look like yours Dionne! hahaha) she brings the energy to the class to keep everyone motivated no matter how tired we are. I am truly going to miss seeing her almost every day of the week! Ale and Josh are walking examples of this program and are also just amazing people. The whole TFX family is my inspiration to keep my journey going. So inspirational that I’m considering looking into changing my career so I can educated myself and others about health and fitness, I have no idea how to even start going about it but that’s how much this program has changed my life. I highly recommend this program to everyone!!!
FTDI!!! it freaking works.

This place is awesome!
The workouts are quick and effective!
They are fun and change frequently so it makes it a fun challenging workout! I definatley recommend it!
The coaches are there to help as needed.
I completed the 3 week 10 pound weight loss challenge and extremely happy I did!
I suggest you give them a try if you have tried everything else and have given up!

To update my review from April/​May of last year when I originally did the six week challenge. Like I said then the program was hard, really hard at times, but the encouragement from the group of people you meet in your classes is amazing. It really is a great community of people and social media helps, you’re never alone there are veterans (past transformers) and a coach on the page at any given time. It never takes long to get an answer if you have a question. The 6 week program is a great way to get a jump start to weight loss and fitness.
That being said I just finished the 3 week/​10 lb challenge. It is just as hard as the six week but you get the same support ans ass kicking as the six week challenge. This place works if you put your heart and mind into the program and FTDI 100% of the time you’ll make your goal.
The trainers seem to care about you as an individual, they want to help and are open to all your questions and never treat you as though you’re stupid. Robin does the am classes I especially like her. She ensures you are doing the exercises correctly and pushes you to do that little bit more. The instructions are easy to follow, as far you sticking to them that’s not always easy but well worth it.
I’m happy to report I’ve kept the 23 lbs, I lost originally, with TFX off since May and I’ve not lost 14.2 lbs more with them. A total weight loss of 37.2 lbs with TFX!

I have had always been on the chubby side and never felt secure about my body. I always wanted the easy way out and take diet pills and fat burners and all that junk to avoid exercise. So I seen a add on Facebook for TFX and P2P I contemplated on both but decided to do TFX. The Trainers and the people is what really made me stay and complete this challenge, I wanted to give up a few because I wasn’t dropping the weight, but the trainers never faltered on me. They were always there to guide and assist me. I’m so happy I did this and now I’m a proud member. It was truly a wonderful experience and made amazing friends and I have never felt so beautiful and comfortable in my own skin.

I’ve always had trouble losing weight, so when I found Transform FX boot camp and their 20lb challenge, I thought it was too good to be true. I started my journey on 12÷01÷15 and I promised myself I would push hard & change my life to be the best I could be for my wedding on 08÷6÷2016. The initial orientation, while motivational, also left me skeptical of what I was getting myself into, but I took the leap anyway. I didn’t realize what was to be expected of me for diet and exercise. I should have known better before I signed my money away.
WORKOUTS 5 STARS – Let me start by saying that before signing the contract, it would have been nice to know EXACTLY what was expected of me. There are 6 mandatory boot camps per week on-​site (or 4 on site and 2 at home) and you’re expected to do 30 minutes a day of cardio 6-​days a week, none of which was explained initially. I ABSOLUTELY LOVE THE WORKOUTS. BEST WORKOUTS I HAVE EVER DONE! Dionne is an amazing trainer; very motivational and pushes you but doesn’t break you like some other classes I’ve taken. She’s not a drill sergeant, but she’s there to push you and correct you if you’re not doing the move correctly. Ale is also a great trainer as well; she REALLY pushes you and I love that!
The workouts are different every single day, which is great so your body doesn’t adapt and you stop losing weight. This is why they get 3-stars…if you’re looking for a boot camp; this is the one because you’ll never get bored! However, I wouldn’t suggest the challenge if you have more than 20 pounds to loose. Why? See below.
DIET 3 STARS – The diet plan is fairly manageable. I personally didn’t have a problem with the food list, but I wish there was more explanation behind the science behind carb cycling, and why certain food items were selected or excluded. I love to learn and this knowledge would be invaluable. More guidance on portion control would have also been helpful. For example, in the program they don’t distinguish between a man or woman who have extreme weight differences and their allotments of protein and portion size.
LAST WEEK – I DO NOT agree with the last week of the program, i.e. «fish week.», whatsoever. You’re only allowed to eat asparagus & white fish. I understand the purpose behind this, but I DO NOT think it’s heathy for anyone to CUT weight like this (my fiancé is a boxer & he did something similar when getting ready for a match). The last 2 days you’re limited to just 16oz of water… this was an extreme SHOCK to my system & now I’m suffering from kidney pains, for which I had to see a doctor. If I had known this was the expectation when I signed, I would NOT have done the challenge. it was too hard on my body.
MANAGEMENT-​Overall, I don’t feel like it’s very organized. I never received a copy of my contract, and the yellow copy of my contract was used to write an essay on the back of the yellow sheet (carbon paper) So there is no way I could’ve taken it. I didn’t get a copy till I asked for it which was at the end of my challenge. Nothing was signed by a TFX representative, so technically the contract is null and void, MINOR FAIL.
There is a Facebook page that’s exclusively for members which I love. Everyone comes together like a community to discuss their challenges and successes. You must check in twice, once on Facebook, and once on a zenfolio site, which is horribly designed. I found it very confusing to have to contact multiple people regularly, which include texting your coach (you have to text your weight twice per week). There are 3 people you deal with on a daily basis– Ale (Trainer/​Manager) Dionne (Trainer) Josh (Challenge Ambassador), and the all have DIFFERENT suggestions and interpretations of the challenger expectations. I got mixed information on multiple occasions. It needs to be better organized; perhaps one 1 designated contact to ensure consistency in communication.
WEIGH-​OUT – Lastly, I met my 20 pound goal and lost 22.2 lbs; most of which was the last week. This week was NOT healthy, as I wrote above… the weight comes right back.
It’s really fun and truly inspiring to come in the last day and see everyone so happy they met their goals! However my biggest issue is how unfair the whole process is. I was told I had to do 2 challenges because I had more than 20 pounds to loose, but this isn’t determined at the initial orientation. No official weigh in, no measurements, NOTHING. They collect your money and THEN tell you the expectations a month later. It’s extremely subjective and unfair on the manager’s part. Another boot camper and myself, who were in the same challenge, both weighed-​in the exact same weight, but she weighed-​out more than me and was NOT forced to do a 2^nd round. One challenge is hard, but a 2^nd challenge is much more difficult, and it feels like this is done to help people to ultimately fail. CONCLUSION– I love the workouts but do not like the challenge! Join as a GYM. but AVOID the challenge.

This is my update to my earlier review. I still love this place because the coaches make it awesome and the workout is awesome — which is a recurring theme in my previous reviews of TFX.
With 2 days left in the challenge, and after confirming with my doctor, I decided to drop out. (aaAAnd cue the song «beauty school drop out» from Grease — LOL)
I decided to drop out of the challenge because I didn’t want to lose water weight just to attempt a loss that would not be sustainable. My doctor confirmed that restricting water and fasting will only result in water loss. If I were within 5 lbs of the 20 lbs, I would have gone for it.
I wasn’t. I’d rather focus my next two days on continuing the good habits TFX has instilled and keep moving forward.
Bottom line: If you are on the fence about the challenge, read all the past reviews and do your due diligence. Better yet, do a drop in class and feel the energy of the place to help cement your decision.
