“Fitness Quest 10 is the most progressive and fun place to work out at! I have been healed through workouts with the FQ10 staff and the TRX products have helped me strengthen and contour my body. Thanks FQ10 for helping me help myself!!” ~ Diane Hirsch Merrigan
"Marilou's yoga class is great! I really enjoy her Tuesday and Thursday afternoon classes. They are the perfect way to spend your afternoon and get yourself ready to finish the day." --Jeanie Barat, class attendee
“Fitness Quest 10 builds community among its clients- this is very unique and is a key factor in my enjoyment and motivation to participate! It’s about “connections” that makes the difference in any conditioning program.” –Mike McKay “Fitness Quest 10 is the only place I would go to workout even though I live in UTC. The instructors and employees are extremely motivating, always challenge me to be better, and they all know your name. The other member’s are also very positive, and often I want to come to class just to see them and share their energy more than to exercise. I always plan my social activities around FQ10 classes."--Jenny Hu “My experience at FQ10 has been nothing short of outstanding. I’ve lost nearly 40 pounds in less than 18 months and am in the best shape of my life. The facilities and staff are world-class. I highly recommend FQ10.” –Chris McFarland "I love taking yoga at Fitness Quest 10. The noon class is perfect to help you relax if your day starts out stressful or help you get through the rest of the day. You must try one of Marilou's classes. You won't regret it." -- Mike Gerstein, class attendee “I love all that Fitness Quest 10 has to offer! It’s obviously one of the top gyms in the country, and not because of the accomplishments, but because it’s the quality of the staff that makes Fitness Quest 10 special. They make you feel like a family. It’s not an act, it doesn’t have the feel of a commercial chain fitness club, rather it is genuine care and concern.” “I’ve been a client at Fitness Quest 10 for 2.5 years. I live in Point Loma and it is a 36 mile round trip to workout. I have improved tremendously, doing things now that I never thought possible. The positive motivation at Fitness Quest 10 is unparalleled improving me mentally and spiritually as well. The staff is so knowledgeable that I can bring my 10 year old daughter to train also. They keep it fun and appropriately challenging for her. Fitness Quest 10 has created a unique experience for us to workout together and as a result my daughter has become much more health conscience. I would never consider training anywhere else.” “I have been a dancer and athlete all my life and cannot express enough gratitude to all the staff at Fitness Quest 10, for reshaping my body after I retired from professional dancing. Their positive energy keeps me coming back where others have failed. The trainers are the very best and I have been to a lot in my career. Best of all, results, results, results in an uplifting atmosphere! Thank you! “This is the finest exercise experience I have ever done. It all starts with Todd’s vision and energy. He employs the best trainers and techniques to optimize health and fitness.” -- Matthew “Tuck” Sitzer, Physician "This class is a must for any and all ages. It will get your body feeling GREAT and is important for overall recovery and flexibility." --Donna Dickinson, class attendee
“This is a fantastic place to work out and get in shape. The energy is always positive and the instructors are very professional. I am getting into great shape and enjoying it along the way.” “In Todd’s’ world of ‘Joes and Pros,’ the FQ10 ‘brand’ is a positive force in each of our lives. Todd builds community by inviting people into the FQ10 family. It is the sum total of small actions: remembering names and histories, introducing people to each other, poking fun in a way that puts people at ease and leveling the playing field by finding strength in everyone.” “I have been working out at Fitness Quest 10 for 7 years. At first, to get back into shape, and then later to strengthen my back and arms after carrying my baby around. I went on to lose 30 pounds of pregnancy weight and I am fitter now than have ever been. I attend Fitness Quest 10 three times a week and I am always challenged to take my fitness to the next level. Todd and his staff are so warm, knowledgeable and energetic, that I hate to miss a workout!” “We have been working out as a family for the last year at Fitness Quest 10. The staff at Fitness Quest 10 really does a great job at challenging you and keeping you motivated. They really tailor your workouts to fir your needs and ability. The true testament to the level of expertise at Fitness Quest 10 comes as a result of working out with your family where everyone has a different ability level yet we all feel we got a great workout after each session. “The environment at FQ10 is friendly and professional. I can honestly say I’ve never been in better shape in my life and my energy level is off the charts. Thanks FQ10!” “I came to Fitness Quest 10 over 16 months ago and it has changed my body. I am now addicted to Pilates and truly enjoy coming to work out. Fitness Quest 10 is a great experience.” “Age places me beyond the goal of achieving a sculptured body, so my fitness priority is about remaining strong and maintaining the ability to move. Fitness Quest 10 is preeminent at offering the tools, through top notch professional trainers, to accomplish these goals. Yoga classes have kept me flexible and strong, Pilates sessions continue to strengthen my core while adjusting my body alignment, one on one training sessions increase my strength, agility and all important balance. And when the efforts necessary to staying fit are spent, the reward, personalized body work/massage is a miracle cure. All this is possible with TD and his staff. They are the best! “Todd expects the best and gets the best! He knows how to push me to my personal limit!” “Great place, great trainers, great classes. Todd is the greatest!” “I have tried diets and gyms but have never succeeded. I have succeeded and seen great results since joining Fitness Quest 10. People have begun to make comments about my appearance. My husband has complimented me on my appearance and is encouraging me to work hard and stay strong. Thank you Fitness Quest 10 for helping me maintain a healthy lifestyle for a long time to come.” “The workouts at Fitness Quest 10 have been tough, but enjoyable. The trainers at Fitness Quest 10 do a great job at constantly varying routines and workouts. As someone who is not an athlete, it is great to be trained like one and train side by side some of them. It’s an inspiration to work out alongside such elite athletes as Drew Brees, Pete Clifford, Malcolm Floyd, Tony Gwyn, Jr., Shawn Merriman, LaDainian Tomlinson, Chris Young, and others. All the Fitness Quest 10 staff at have been very friendly, helpful and encouraging. They make you feel like family.” “After years of trying different gyms and fitness programs I have finally found what I’ve been searching for at Fitness Quest 10. Each of the highly qualified trainers brings something unique to the team and everyone at FQ10 team makes the total experience upbeat and positive. There are no empty promises just to get you in the door; it’s serious fitness training tailored to each individual and it works for everyone, from the average person like me to professional athletes. Thanks to FQ10, staying fit is no longer just something that I hope to do; it’s what I want to do.” “My goal is to age healthfully, internally and externally. Fitness Quest 10 employs highly educated and motivated fitness trainers that are fun to work with. Together, they have helped me reach my goal and stay motivated for several years now. I love the Fitness Quest 10 experience!” “I have been using FQ10’s facilities for 3+ years. The trainers are top in the field. It is apparent to anyone new to FQ10 that great thought and consideration was used to their client’s needs and goals. Everyone there, including the staff behind the desk, cares about you.” “My massage therapist has been working on me body for several years. Marilou is knowledgeable in various methods of bodywork and energy therapy and always finds a way to improve my aches and pains. She’s magical! There’s a high, feel-good energy at Fitness Quest 10, and even though I’m not there to work out, the trainers and the rest of the staff are very friendly too.” “I started at FQ10 for massage, then eventually started doing Pilates, and then personal training. Now I’m working out there five days a week. The trainers are all of such high caliber, and the staff is friendly and knowledgeable. A great start to every day!” “Simply put…Fitness Quest 10 is the absolute best thing I’ve EVER done for myself!” I typically have a very short ‘self-discipline attention span,’ so I never anticipated I’d still be working out two years later! But, much to my surprise and PRIDE, I’LL NEVER QUIT now that I’ve discovered how GREAT I feel, how STRONG I’ve become and how much I love seeing the RESULTS! At 61 years old I attribute my success first of all to Todd’s upbeat, positive, supportive staff…and secondly to my determination to live the healthiest years of my life from this day forward!” “I have been coming to FQ10 every week for over 5 years and it has changed my quality of life in many ways. Todd has built and incredible fitness facility and has staffed it with trainers and staff that are knowledgeable, caring, and have tremendous spirit. I have developed great relationships with friends and trainers at FQ10 that I cherish.” “The level of intensity and energy at Fitness Quest 10 truly makes the experience/lifestyle of working out unique. I have lost almost twenty pounds and totally changed my body shape since having my daughter ten months ago. I recommend FQ10 to anyone I know because it is such a positive, life-changing experience to add to your life.” “Wow!! Do I see and feel the difference! For the past year since I started Pilates at Fitness Quest 10, my flexibility and range have increased tremendously. My cycling and golf game have improved greatly. The Pilates crew at Fitness Quest 10 is the best!” “I am so happy I finally decided to come to Fitness Quest 10. I’ve always walked and done sit-ups (for back issues), but have never been dedicated to a fitness routine…until now. Marilou’s yoga class is one of the best things I’ve ever done for myself. I tried yoga at several different gyms before Fitness Quest 10 but nothing compared to the specific detailed level of instruction Marilou provides. I feel I am getting stronger and more flexible every week. Between yoga and a few amazing massages (also at FQ10) my sciatica issues have lessened dramatically. Then I shared a few personal training sessions with some girlfriends (very fun!), started Todd’s Functional Fitness class, and now I am hooked on an exercise routine for the first time ever. There cannot possibly be anyone else out there like Todd, who can make working out so incredibly fun, while at the same making sure you are progressing at your own level (I’m 49…LaDainian Tomlinson I’m not!) and not injuring yourself. I love the fact that there are people working out in this facility from teenagers, to the young buffs, to pro athletes, to the old ladies (and men!). There’s even a man in the functional fitness class who just turned 75! And, we all seem to get what we need from the class. Absolutely amazing! But the best part is I feel better than I have since I was a kid. As a matter of fact, the warm up we did today made me laugh so much and comment that I feel like a kid again out playing, which is basically what we were doing!” “I have been a client at Fitness Quest 10 for over 3.5 years. The combination of doing Pilates and massage therapy has kept me in shape and, more importantly, saved me from having back surgery. And Ryan has done a wonderful job training both my kids on their way to playing volleyball at the collegiate level. In short, you and your talented staff are amazing!” “I was referred to FQ10 by a friend of mine who saw me lying flat on my back on my back on my office floor due to terrible back pain. After working with Brett at FQ10 for a short period of time, my back felt great. I have been coming every week for over 5 years, and I feel great. I can’t say enough about the staff, the techniques that are utilized, and a clear commitment by everyone at FQ10 to be the best.” “Around the time I turned 50, I realized I no longer had the agility to enjoy the occasional sports I loved, such as skiing and hiking; and an old injury was causing persistent back and hip pain. Even simple activities, like walking the dogs or shopping, were often difficult and painful. Meanwhile, I saw my aging parents losing their independence as they lost their strength, flexibility, and balance. At that time, I made a decision to get into a regular exercise program that I could adopt as a lifestyle. But I knew I needed help to keep me motivated and to avoid aggravating the old injury. I’d belonged to various gyms before, but had never stayed with a program very long. Several friends encouraged me to check out Fitness Quest 10. There, Julie did a great job assessing my condition and goals – she recommended a program of Pilates and functional fitness training, and matched me to personal trainers based on my needs and preferences. Over a year later, I still look forward to every visit to Fitness Quest 10, from the friendly, intimate atmosphere to the highly qualified staff. Every session is varied and always challenging. Pilates has complemented the functional fitness training by improving me symmetry and strengthening my core. I’m in the best shape in years; I’m pain free and, best of all, I was able to ski a double black diamond slope with my son in March!” “I always feel very welcomed when I come through the door.” “Everyone at Fitness Quest 10 is friendly and welcoming – often greeting me by name. The Tuesday/Thursday yoga class with Marilou is fabulous. I always feel strong, relaxed and stretched out afterward, and my back is grateful!” Athletes“Todd’s new facility allows me to train at the maximum level possible. Between the expertise, knowledge, equipment and program impact, it is where I choose to do my training. The Fitness Quest 10 team is an MVP in my book. Between the challenging workouts and the recovery options I can choose from, it translates to success on the field. If you want the best…train with the best. Todd’s facility and training programs will certainly challenge you to be your best. They will get you ready for your upcoming season in any sport. Point blank.” ” “Fitness Quest 10 makes you better everyday and turns you into a champion. They have a great staff that will motivate you to be the best and achieve your highest potential.” “Fitness Quest 10 prepares you for training camp both mentally and physically. Todd gets you focused and ready to attack the new season. No one does it better.” “Fitness Quest 10 gets you to peak performance. They push you everyday to get better and better.” “Thanks again for another great off-season of training. You’re the best there is at getting the most out of me. Have a great 2009 and see you soon.” “The energy is electric and vibrant. Vince is a fitness god who takes my training to heart. FQ10 is by far the best gym in Southern California.” “I’ve been going to Fitness Quest 10 for about 5 months. Fitness Quest has helped me get in better shape for many different sports like lacrosse and football. The trainers are very nice and will take time out of the class to show you how to do it the right way on the machine, and how it will help in physical fitness. By going to Fitness Quest, I have more energy for all the sports I go out for.” “I’ve been working with Fitness quest for 5 years to help improve my strength for softball. I started out to improve my speed and agility, and gradually moved to strength and core work. My training at Fitness Quest always kept me moving with the competitive workouts and motivating trainers.” “Fitness Quest has created a new healthier lifestyle for my life as a person and also a football athlete. Fitness Quest has helped me reach my goals to a fuller life. Now I am one of the top rated offensive linemen in San Diego thanks to the trainers that led me to incredible results.” “For me Fitness Quest was a way to get stronger and faster in a sport I love to play, football. When I first started, I was unable to hold a plank for 1 minute, now I can. Fitness Quest 10 has provided me with a new healthier lifestyle for my entire life.” “Fitness Quest has really changed my life. It has made me in shape and has made me faster and stronger in the sport I love to play, football. “When I first started, I barely knew the basics when it came to fitness. But, the trainers took time to train until I improved my agility and speed. Now I’m a threat on the football field and the track. Thanks Fitness Quest!” “Since I have joined Fitness Quest 10 I have noticed a huge change in my appearance and, most importantly, in my athletic movements. I feel more confident when I step out on the field knowing that I can throw these guys around with ease. I also have a lot more energy and endurance when I run and work out.” “Doug has helped me increase my distance with my drives. He also improved my strength, endurance, and flexibility. Doug’s the best!” “I started coming to Fitness Quest 10 to improve my speed, balance and core strength. I have improved more than I had hoped for. Thanks Fitness Quest 10.” “I first came to Fitness Quest 10 because I was having reoccurring hamstring injuries that I couldn’t seem to get rid of. I have been working out at FQ10 for a few months now and feel stronger, faster and better, yet haven’t had any hamstring problems since.” “Great workout atmosphere! They worked my brother and I to our max and now it shows on the field. Made great personal accommodations for injury, soreness, etc.” |
