I am a 59 year old male who has been out of shape for over 10 years. 5 weeks ago I decided if I am going to be healthy and fit enough to enjoy retirement in a few years, it was time to make a major change. I decided to do the Farrell's 10-week Fitness Challenge. I knew the only success I have ever had in getting fit is if I am part of a group and am told what to do. The 1st week was rough and the second week was also rough. I started feeling muscles that I never knew existed. I thought maybe I injured my right bicep but the next day my left bicep had a similar pain which apparently was just my biceps being exercises and maybe growing. On Tuesday of week 3, a couple hours after my morning workout, I felt the best that I have felt in 10 years and that "felt the best" is happening every day now. I am hooked on Farrell's in St Paul. The staff is amazing. They give great instruction and motivation. The other clients are also amazing and encouraging. This morning in week 5, I had a mid-point body scan and I have lost significant body fat and have gained significant muscle. I know I made the right decision to live a longer, healthier life and I owe it to the team and other clients at Farrell's in St Paul! Thank you, thank you, thank you!!! If you need a little nudge like I did, you will not regret stepping in and giving it a try.

Farrell’s Extreme Body Shaping in Saint Paul is the only place you can find people who care about you. I have been working out this gym for many years, and I am so impressed with the results. The workouts are challenging, but very fun. Trainers are very knowledgeable and motivating. I have gained strength, lost weight, and feel much more confident. Come and tryout for a class of boxing or strength training.

Great gym and amazing community! The instructors, managers, and other members at FXB St. Paul really make for a top notch experience. Everyone is so supportive! I love the balance between kickboxing days and strength training days. They keep the workouts fresh so you don't settle into a dull routine. I'm so happy I joined FXB by enrolling in one of their 10 week challenges!

So very GLBTQ-friendly and welcoming! Love this kickboxing-classes gym with great music during their classes! Very beginner friendly to everyone. This is the location on Selby Ave in St Paul, and it is so much fun! Every other day is weightlifting classes, and included with the membership is nutrition coaching. Incredibly positive coaches with so much experience. Classes are available Monday-Saturday in the mornings and in the late afternoon/evening. Online classes are also available. Weightlifting is with dumbbells and exercise bands, which promotes great results. No direct sparring (whew!) but rather, you often pair up and share a punching bag (often one person is punching/kicking while the other person does body-weight exercises). Lots of diversity in the classes: Black, white, hIspanic, LGBTQ+, all ages, teachers, nurses, social workers, electricians, overweight, fit…and they are incredibly open to newbies—don’t think that you have to be an amazing expert to start here. :-) They often have specials where you can get the first week free to try it out! They often have 10-week challenges (one person at the location wins $1000!) but you can join in at any time. Most people don’t wait for a challenge to start classes, they just start coming, and then join a challenge when one comes up (about four times a year). Classes are “gamified” in a really fun way that I’ve never seen before, there is email (and Facebook group) support, and everything is done to make the classes as effective, safe, fun, and supportive as possible. Wow! That’s me in the picture. You can’t really tell in the photo, but I’ve lost my Covid-gut in the 2 months I’ve been going! It’s been incredibly good for my mental health, which in turn helps me be not only more effective at work, but also be a more patient and positive family member.

I passed by Farrell's for several months on my way to dance classes down the street, always aware of it and feeling curious, but without the proper motivation to learn more. Finally, after enough wondering, I called in and scheduled a trial week. I had been working on improving my overall health and well-being for a while on my own, and decided to see what it was like to work with a more established process/organization to further my goals and better understand the steps needed to meet them. The staff at Farrell's were very helpful and welcoming. They answered all my questions, worked with me to get me oriented and set up for success. With a bit of hesitation, due to time constraints, I did end up staying as a member, thanks in a large part to the wide range of scheduled sessions and the great community. I am glad I took a chance and came to Farrell's. I feel welcomed, motivated, and ready to step forward towards a better relationship with my body and my health. 💙
