My wife and I began training here at the beginning of COVID to increase our health and from the start, Marcus and his team have always put our safety in masking and outdoor training protocols at the forefront of helping us get stronger and more flexible.They check in regularly on how our plans are going and adjust as necessary to help us reach our goals. I highly recommend Aion to anyone, but especially those of us over 50 to join us. Its a great atmosphere to get stronger in!
I love this gym. This is my first experience with a smaller, private gym. Workouts individualized set to help reach my personal goals. It has a community feel and everyone encourages each other even though everyone is in different stages of their health and fitness journey. Marcus is the best. Highly recommend!
Marcus and his crew are skilled, attentive and really fun to work out with. Within 2 months my ongoing shoulder pain is almost gone.If you want good energy, quality training and some fun music look no further! ❤️💪
This is the best gym with the best coach and the best people! I never thought I’d look forward to going to the gym at 5am, yet here I am. Marcus is a caring coach who pushes me when I need to be pushed. Everyone is so encouraging - it really is a very special community. It’s nice to finally feel like I’m doing something good for myself, especially after 2020!
Hands-down, Best choice I’ve made to be part of Aion Family! Marcus was highly recommend! Alex really pushes you to exceed and meet your goals!
Had some problems with mobility in my knees, hips and shoulders. Working with the staff certainly ameliorated my condition considerably. Really improved strength and balance.
Good gym with good people and coaching. Met alot of new friends here who are supportive and encouraging. I have never been consistent with a gym or working out before. I plan my day around my workouts now. Marcus also helped me recover after my back surgery in 2019. One on one strength training and semi-privates to get me where I am today. I am grateful 🙏😊!
As someone who’s always felt fit (even if I carried extra pounds over the years), finding myself in my 40’s suddenly struggling with pain during everyday activities, I knew I needed help getting stronger and intentionally strengthening muscles I’ll rely on as I age. After 6 weeks with Aion, I can already feel the difference in my body and my mood. The atmosphere is encouraging and supportive. My plan is tailored to my personal fitness goals. Marcus and Alex are there to hone my workouts as they see how I work through them. I’m so glad I found Aion at this point in my life.
I’ve been working out at Aion for 2.5 years and have known Marcus for 3+years. There is no better place to train in Pasadena. The training programs are designed to help you achieve your goals and get you in the best shape of your life.Everyone is valued, known, and seen at Aion, which makes this place more than a gym. I used to hate working out but it’s now the highlight of my day. As I enter my mid-forties, I am so grateful to have a place where I can prioritize my physical and mental health, while having great fun with wonderful people who deeply care about others. Aion is more than a gym, it is a community of really GOOD people - and we all know how important that is.
What can I say about Aion Training except that it is amazing!!! I have been a member of Aion for 2.5 years and am in the best shape of my life! Prior to joining Aion I didn’t enjoy working out and hadn’t found any type of exercise that appealed to me. After joining Aion and getting to be part of the “Aion Family” I not only began to look forward to workouts but also found that I really enjoyed the idea of lifting!I have lost weight with Aion and gotten so strong! I see the results throughout all parts of my life, whether it’s doing something athletic or just bringing in the groceries from the car. Forever grateful to Aion and the knowledge that is brought to training all bodies at all levels of fitness!
I will not step inside a “normal” gym. But Aion is not your “normal “ gym and I have been coming since the 1st day they opened up. At Aion you get professional training from knowledgeable coaches who have studied and know the body and how it works. They create workouts for you that work the whole body with strength training, mobility and cardio. Aion is a community of people over 40 who encourage and support one another. We consider ourselves family and welcome anyone who wishes to join us!
I wanted a gym that would help me with the most effective way to work out. But Marcus showed me how to gain strength while having fun. There is no pressure to compete, its personal & comfortable. I now look forward to a workout!
Aion was the best gym for me to begin my swimming strength training. I was able to build my muscle strength & endurance for longer swim workouts with a small group of every day athletes who are committed to their own wellbeing & supporting each other. The trainers coached my movements from warm up to main sets, and their knowledge helped me perform the mobility & strength moves with better focus & intention. I even learned some warm up movements that I’ve seen the Olympic athletes using before they compete! I’m excited about my upcoming 2 mile Alcatraz swim, and I’m confident in my conditioning & training both the dry land with Aion and in the water - Thank You, Aion Trainers & Athletes!
Varied workouts that switch up - don’t focus on just big muscles groups —> better mobility & build muscles I wasn’t aware of to support entire body - don’t ever get bored with workout - accommodations for easier (or more challenging) always available. Great coaches & community. (Inside the gym and outside too - charity workouts & hikes & more)
If you are looking to make a difference in your fitness journey, Aion Training is a great place to call your gym home! It goes beyond singular goals of losing weight or building muscle mass. Building Community is at the heart of Aion. I look forward to my workouts and enjoy the challenges and inspiration to be the best version of myself! Why wait until Monday? Start your journey today @ Aion Training:)
Amazing high level training. Always professional, great communicators and knowledgeable in terms of anatomy. I know I’m getting the best training while staying safe from injury. Marcus is amazing. He is kind and always makes me feel comfortable and well taken care of.
I am so glad I found Aion Training. I was coming off a long fast and had loss several inches when we started a 6week fat-loss challenge. I was reluctant at first to eat as much as Coach Marcus recommended but I decided to follow the plan laid out for us and I am glad I did. Although I gained all my weight back, I learned to trust the process and I much leaner and stronger than before. And I do not need to starve to be fit...Thanks Coach for your guidance and commitment to bettering our lives. I am happy with the results.
Love the training! It is a mix of flexibility and strength training with some cardio. The programming is varied, with an emphasis on doing the exercises correctly. It’s also a fun place to work out.
Aion training is a great and supportive environment. They are committed to helping you succeed.
Aion is a great friendly place to work out. They are very knowledgeable. I am thankful I found a place that specializes helping people like me that are over 40 and need help getting back into a routine. They take your whole body into account and help work around previous injuries and ailments.
I had such a great experience training with the Aion family. I was 4 months postpartum and just starting to get back to feeling like myself again. Marcus was incredibly caring and had some great new workouts for me to try! The workouts were always personalized to me and my fitness level. There’s a fitness app you use to keep track of all your workouts and progress. I always left feeling renewed and energized. Being here is just what I needed.Marcus is all about safety both during workouts, so you don’t get injured, and with the pandemic. He takes all the necessary Covid-19 precautions including mask wearing, temp checks, sanitizing, and social distancing with outside workouts when needed. The new facility is clean and coming along nicely. I can’t wait to see what it looks like when it’s finished!
I am so happy I joined Aion Training. I have been working out on my own for a couple of years now, and lacked the motivation and accountability to be successful. I joined on a trial basis, and was impressed by the support, individualized coaching, and family feeling. Now I am attending regularly, and am thrilled by the improvement it is making in my daily life. Give Aion a try - you will get hooked!
Marcus is awesome at helping you get back into shape. He seems to know exactly when to push and when to ease off, all with a friendly bit of banter. His program gave me the perfect mix of strength and mobility training, tailored to exactly what my body needed.
Ive always been athletic and have done my best to stay in shape but as I get older and responsibilities add up, I needed to find a place where the trainer understood my personal goals and could deliver what they promised, and worked with me on a price point I could afford.In the 5 weeks I have been training at AION the results are showing.Marcus is always helpful, professional, light hearted and makes me work! I might cuss his name the next day when Im in pain but I cant wait to get back out there. I look forward to my training days. Marcus has taught me a better eating routine than I already had and I just feel better.Thanks MarcusThanks AIONFight On
Aion Training-Fitness is so much more to me than where I work out, its also where I have made great friendships. The owner, Marcus, is not only a great trainer but hes an amazing person. He has instills such a sense of community that that stretches beyond the gym walls. He organizes charity work outs for us and is big on team building exercises. His knowledge of fitness and nutrition is second to none.
The Aion Training community has been excellent for me. My goal when I joined Aion was to increase my muscle tone and flexibility. While I was not in bad shape, I was not working out regularly and the stress at work was taking its toll. Also, I was moving into Chapter Two (post 60 years old) so increased physical activity was the preventive maintenance I needed to keep moving. Marcus informed me that he could help me achieve my goals…and he did (and continues to do)!When working out with Aion, I don’t feel like I am on this journey alone, as the program fosters an atmosphere of family and positive support. Marcus meets you where you currently are physically, and slowly brings you along to improve your fitness level. Although the workouts can be tough, his voice of encouragement (as well as my teammates) help me power through that last set of exercises. I never get the feeling that I’m not getting the instruction that I need to perform the exercises correctly and in a safe manner.The other thing I appreciate is the flexibility in the program scheduling. While no gym class schedule is perfect, the Aion programming make it difficult for the excuse, “I don’t have time for exercise.” There have been times where job responsibilities prevented me from making my a.m. class, but there was an afternoon/evening course that I could attend in its place. Also, the commitment to keeping us on track during the COVID crisis via ZOOM workouts and online chats was truly impressive and demonstrated a true commitment to help us maintain our fitness goals.I look forward to continuing this journey of self-improvement and I’m glad I have Aion Training keeping me on track.
What can I say other than Aion is the best gym in Pasadena, and Marcus is the best trainer. I really appreciate the community. Marcus cares deeply about his clients and will tailor a plan to fit your needs. Well into my 30’s, and I am in the best shape I have ever been in. Not to mention that I have made some incredible friends along the way.
I highly recommend Aion Training. Marcus knows his stuff and is a real pro. I’ve been training with him for two years and it’s been a great journey. Marcus pushes me to get stronger, but he focuses on proper form, mobility and safety. The result is that I’ve been able to stay healthy and consistent. Aion Training is a really fun and diverse community. I look forward to working out with the friends I’ve made in the 5am strength camp four times a week. It is the highlight of my day knowing I get to improve as a person and have fun at the same time.Update May, 2021 - We made it through the pandemic and never missed a beat. Starting in March 2020 we went online, back to in person, back online, in person again but outdoors through the winter and finally back inside in Aion’s cool new gym space. New equipment is coming weekly and i feel like I’m getting to push myself towards new fitness goals!
Aion is a family. Coach Marcus makes you feel comfortable while working out. Corrects you, should you not do something correctly, so you dont get hurt. He is always watching out for you. He is just the best!During Covid Marcus immediately had us on Zoom and being consistent. Not gaining weight during the past year and a half has been a huge relief and the strength training is amazing. I never thought at 60 I would be lifting weights, trap bar at 135lbs and bench pressing. I enjoy it way more than i thought I would.
I cant say enough about Ion training, Marcus is an amazing coach, always educating himself to make sure we get the best training and nutrition advice as possible, even when Im injured I know I can still get a great workout with the modifications necessary to stay on track with my fitness goals. The Ion family is amazing, always encouraging and supportive, yes when you join this community you become family. If you want results in your fitness goals, join us.
Marcus is a top notch trainer. He is very knowledgeable and has done a great job building a positive community around fitness and health. Aion is a family and is so much more than just losing a few pounds. Highly recommend!
The community is positive and uplifting. Great place to get fit no matter where you are on your fitness journey. CAN DO ATTITUDE of Marcus and other trainers permeates every workout. Im in better shape now in my 50s than I was in my younger years.
Wonderful and effective training to get you safely to your health and fitness goals!THE BEST Positive, caring, and engaging group of people to be in a fitness community with.HIGHLY recommend - without question or hesitation!
When I started with Coach Marcus I was at my heaviest. He was able to get me back on track with my nutrition ensuring I slimmed down the healthy way. He understood I was prone to back injuries and made sure I did each excercise correctly. Marcus is very knowledgeable and designs the best programs for his clients who become family.
High level training with trainers that are knowledgeable, professional, make working out fun and guarantee results! This gym is the gym. Ive seen amazing progress, made great friends and overall feel much better physically and emotionally. Highly recommend AION!
Aion fitness is my favorite place to workout. Everyone is supportive, encouraging and fun. Marcus and coaches are very knowledgeable to help you reach your goals
Wonderful gym, coaches, and community. Marcus and Dana will push you to meet and exceed your goals, and there’s a great community to keep you motivated as well. He offers virtual and in-person classes and will work with anyone to help you reach your fitness goals.
Aion Fitness is a great whole person wellness program - so much more than a gym! I appreciate the individual attention I recieve from the coaches, but even more the support I receive from everyone in the group, whether it be to push through a workout, step up my nutrition, or just have a good time!
Great service and a very knowledgeable coach. Helping me tremendously with my shoulder injury. Highly recommend.
Marcus is amazing he can provide personalized training designed for each individual and during group sessions he’s right there to correct your form and avoid injury. And the community at Aion is genuine, people who care about each other and support each other.
