GetActive

Hector is one of the best trainers I’ve come across in OC. I normally hate trainers and I want to do my own thing but he has made me believe in listening to people that are in the know. Check this place out its really worth it.

I met Hector awhile back and found out he had his own gym. I have always been fit l, but Hector got me on a diet and a régime that changed my life. Guy is great and extremely professional. His gym is like a small family and he’s always got the best music. Im on a new
Level!!!

I’ve had multiple trainers at 24 hour fitness and Equinox, but they weren’t nearly as good as Hector. He actually studies the body and knows how the muscles work. I was amazed how much he knew and how passionate he is about fitness (but not in an annoying way). I had an earlier injury and he designed a workout that would not irritate any of my problem areas. I’m a happy customer! Just don’t wear Lululemon pants if he’s making you do things on the AstroTurf.

I can’t imagine a better place to work out with people who are caring, kind, and focused on getting you to your optimum health and fitness. Can’t say enough good things about Hector and Julie! I feel better than I have in 20 years.

I’ve had a lifelong struggle with weight; in 2013, I made it a New Years Resolution to cast off insecurity and finally lose the weight. I dropped almost 60 lbs and have successfully kept it off. Despite all of this, I wanted to see more toning progress. Over the summer, I came to Julie with a picture of Sarah Connor in my hands and said, «Make me look like this!» Over the course of the last few months, my body has been changing in ways I didn’t even think possible. Through Julie’s encouragement, can-​do attitude and specific routine plans, she has helped me see progress that I would never have imagined three years ago.
If you need an extra push or someone to be accountable to to make sure you reach your goals, look no further than Julie Powers. She will make you feel like you can do anything and that it’s okay to have minor setbacks because of life. The attitude you have about fitness is everything and Julie’s positive attitude definitely offers reassurance that you will reach your goals.

Hector is the real deal. VERY knowledgeable, great rates, not pushy! This is an amazing gym and staff! Nothing but positivity here.

If your looking to get serious results and want an amazing trainer, Hector is the person to see! I have been training with him for 5 months, and lost 40 lbs. I learned how to eat properly, even though I am a Chef, how to train at the gym and how to improve my body and fitness. Hector cares about his clients and takes the time to help and support you through your new lifestyle. He puts together a customized training depending on your needs, wants and body type. Every workout with him is different and fun. He challenges my body and the results have been amazing. He showed me that my body really can do things that I never thought it could. I have worked with other trainers in the past, but Hector has a way where he understands the body and can push it to its limits. I am beyond appreciative for the motivation and support that I have received from him. I am so much happier in my life, my health has improved and I can truly thank Hector for helping me get there. He checks in with me to make sure that I am feeling ok, doing my homework at the gym, eating properly and maintaining my health all while under my doctors supervision. Try out Get Active! You will not regret coming, just maybe not coming sooner!
They also have great classes such as surfset and boot camp which are super fun and different than anything else I have tried. I really like the surfset, where you workout on these special surfboards– working your core, balance, and body. It is fun, interactive and unique to Get Active.

Hector is a great listener, he very knowledgable, skillful, and motivating. He assess my progress and tailors my workout routines to accomplish my fitness goals. He helped me get stronger and be able to run which I haven’t been able to do in 10 years. I have learned a lot working with him as my trainer. He’s an excellent source of knowledge and skill for all thing fitness.

I love training at GetActive with Julie Powers. She encourages me to keep going even when at times I have felt like giving up. I am dealing with a shoulder injury and was becoming depressed. Julie kept in touch with me and gave me back the drive to work around the injury, always making sure I do not hurt myself. It is such a pleasure to spend time with her that an hour goes by quickly. I know that by training with Julie I will reach my goal.

I have been training with Julie for about 9 months now and I have nothing but amazing things to say about her!!! She was my first personal trainer and I don’t think I will ever train with anybody else!
First of all, she is the most positive and outgoing person I know! Her energy is so contagious and that makes working out with her a blast! (even if you’re dying on the inside). She pushes me to work hard with some tough love added to it! Her workouts are always different and exciting! I was in the greatest shape of my life thank to Julie!
I took a couple months break from seeing her because of school :(but I’m so glad that I’m training with her again at GetActive! The gym is spacious, clean, and I love that it’s an open area so you get fresh air while working out!
I would definitely recommend Julie to all of my friends and family who are interested in improving their fitness lifestyle! Thank you for everything Julie, you’re the best!

Who knew that as a senior I would be healthier, more knowledgeable about proper nutrition, and stronger than ever in my life? Hector did. I was only seeking help to deal with a strange pain in my leg, which he addressed successfully during my first session, but I continue because Hector stretches my confidence about what I am capable of doing.. . and I have fun doing it! The iGetActive Gym is a perfect venue for this multidimensional, individualized training. I have moved from doing miscellaneous exercises to using strategic combinations of stretching, cardio, and muscle-​building activities to correct imbalances that I didn’t even know that I had, and to move me toward functional goals. Combine these with Hector’s nutritional coaching, and I am ready for anything!

Getting to train with the lovely Julie Powers has been such an amazing gift. She has pushed me to my limits and taught me so much. My weight loss of 50+ lbs was because its not just a job to her, it’s a passion. Our session didn’t end when the hour was up. I could count on the text after dinner for accountability, or her to accompany me on a 5k or 10k. So if your looking for someone who really cares and knows what she is doing when it comes to health and fitness. Julie Powers is the best!!!

Love Love Love GetActive! After an eternity of gym shopping, I have finally found The One! The facility has a great flow – clean space, natural light, and nothing beats that ocean breeze. I love that it’s not intimidating or pretentious; I can just go and work on my fitness goals.
Love Love Love Julie! She is inspirational! If it were not for her contagious enthusiasm, I would never have it in me to exercise. She has undoubtedly extended my life by offering me simple, manageable workout strategies. It takes a special human being to make working out a joy, and Julie is that human.
Also, I love that the gym has towel service and a dedicated space for massage therapy!

I have been training with Julie Powers for over 16 months! She has been a key success to my new fit lifestyle: lower blood pressure, 30 lbs weight loss, increased the strength for my core, back, legs and my favorite biceps-​triceps-​deltoid! Each week I am continuing to be challenged by my trainer and I am amazed how I am continuing to excel. I consider my trainer one of my dearest friends.
