Cali Life Fitness

Mike is one of the best personal trainers I have ever worked out with! He’s very knowledgable and made it seem as if each workout was specifically created with my goals in mind. If you’re ready to make the change in your life, Mike’s the one to go to. He’ll get you results quickly, safely and effectively. AND he’s one of the few trainers out there who actually pays attention to his client’s during the entire workout and then some. I’ve had trainers in the past who I’ve caught literally flexing and checking themselves out in the mirror while I’m counting my own reps and probably had terrible form since it never felt that hard. Working with Mike, I understand how important the right range of motion and the right exercises are in each workout. I highly recommend Cali Life Fitness to help you reach and exceed your fitness goals!

I trained with Deanne when she taught aerobic exercise classes and boot-​camp at my place of work. Deanne has a knack for creating challenging workouts that are accessible and beneficial to a broad range of fitness levels. Additionally, Deanne’s kind and cheerful disposition fosters just the right motivational atmosphere needed for group exercise. I always left Deanne’s lunch-​time classes feeling energized and in a positive place — ready to tackle the second half of my day!

I started with Deanna’s group class focused on losing body fat rather than weight. in 4 short weeks 8 total sessions, I lost 1.5 inches off my waist. I had also gone to my physician who had tested my body fat 3 months prior and was pleased I was down 3%. Just so you understand, I’m a big-​boned woman who has about 70 pounds to lose and I’ve tried just about everything in the book! Except Cali Life Fitness… After seeing the results from that one little class, I decided to keep going and have moved on to personal training with Deanna. It’s amazing how hard work pays off. And t’s not just about quantity, it’s about quality. She watches for perfect form in order to get maximum results.
It’s apparent that Deanna has a passion for what she does and wants to see her clients succeed. She has helped me not only with exercise, but also changing my eating habits. I’m getting stronger, in better shape and it’s fun when people start to notice a change in not only my body, but my peace of mind. In all honesty, it’s taken a long time for me to be able to first of all even look at myself in the mirror. But to be able to look at myself in the mirror and like what I see is such a huge accomplishment.
Also, as someone in the corporate world who has to travel for work, most of the exercises I’ve been doing and learning use my own body weight for resistance, so I can easily take my workouts with me on the road. There’s no excuse…
I’m going for it! No turning back. It’s an answer to prayer!

I’ve worked with Mike throughout the past year and he helped me lose 15 pounds of fat and convert it into lean muscle. Both my parents and girlfriend could see a noticeable difference in just a month. I would highly recommend him as a trainer.

Today is my last training session with Mike Santiago and I couldn’t be sadder =(I wish I could keep training with him but my job has relocated me. Mike is an awesome trainer! he came up with the most creative workouts and was very informative. I strongly recommend him! My friends and family noticed results before I had mentioned I was training. He taught me very effective workouts that I can do on my own. Thank you Mike

Mike is the best!
I used to be a cardio freak and thought it was all I needed. I always plateued with weight loss and never lifted a weight a day in my life until I started training with him. He showed me I could be strong and still feminine and I’ve never looked back. Now I love to lift and he’s never taken my safety for granted and always had my best interest in mind. He pushes just enough to keep you motivated and shows a genuine sense of caring. Hands down one of the best trainers I’ve ever had the pleasure of working with and I highly recommend his services. You won’t be disappointed! :)

Great service!
Great trainers!
Great results!
I highly recommend CLF to anyone looking for a change in the right direction in health and fitness.
