    I have a mixed review of End Result Fitness. I went for four training sessions with Chris who was absolutely fantastic. He was the nicest guy in the world and kept me motivated. I thought he did a great job. The facilities at the gym are somewhat limited however Chris made sure I got an amazing work out every time I was there. What completed overshadowed my good experience was my meeting with the owner, Allan Alguire, which is the reason I will not be going back. At the end my program I had a post assessment with Allan where he, expectedly, tried to sell me a package and sign on with the gym. I understand that this is a business and that he is obviously doing his job but in my humble opinion, I thought he was very unethical with how he went about it. I am a student and I am currently at a good weight but wouldn't mind losing about 5 pounds. When I informed him that I am a poor student and cannot afford to sign on, he was relentless about telling me what a good investment this would be for my future. I informed him, once again, that I did not have the money and then he told me it is worthwhile TO GO INTO DEBT to pay for the sessions. I reaffirmed my point that this was not in my budget and then he used manipulative tactics by stating that it doesn't seem like I am committed to being healthy. Once again, in my opinion, I think it is really unethical to push people to commit financially beyond their means under the facade of making them healthy when really it is just to make a profit. I was so upset after this, I googled his names to see if anyone else felt this way and Im not the only one. I also found that he commented on this video on how to sell personal training sessions which just reaffirms my belief that he is not genuine and I would not want to go back to his gym despite the great experience I had with Chris. You can see the video here and scroll down for his comment although I'm sure he'll remove it soon: http://ptpower.com/201...
