Amazing transformative experience. The trainers are first class. The food is healthy and excellent and all the facilities are amazing. Highly reccomended
I have been here one week so far and I LOVE it. I'm so glad I signed up for 4 weeks. The trainers are the best I've ever worked with by a country mile, the nutritionist is really knowledgable about leaky gut and all the other things that can cause many health problems, the meals are delicious, there are cooking demos that will help me make great meals at home, and the exercises are many and varied. We go from 6am to 6pm, and it's never boring, never repetitious. We've left the property for hikes, kayaking and paddle boarding, spice store shopping, and other things. The people I've met here, both fellow campers and employees, are people I'll stay in touch with. I'd highly recommend this to ANYONE serious about getting in great physical condition. I never got a chance to go to overnight camp as a kid and I feel like I've given myself a real treat coming here. I am getting in shape and making friends!
My stay was filled with fun, hard workouts, laughter, professional knowledge in whole body (big, small and buried muscles)and mind fitness, new (for me)fun activities, nutritional knowledge, INSPIRATION and MOTIVATION. It was an exceptional experience to be with a group of participating people looking for health wellness and activity. What an awsome bond - that I did not foresee. With the guidance of caring and motivating professionals, I witnessed and experienced incredible changes in cholesterol, blood pressure and of course size. The human body is truly miraculous how it responds.
The facilities, food and resort were all very good. It was exceptionally helpful to my current and future success to have the nutritional knowledge applied in the meals and snacks provided, and Chef Jason sharing recipes and ingredient supply info.
Living in a northern climate, November was/is the perfect month to escape cold wet gloom, for the sunny warm dry climate near San Diego. It is a great place to reset and work towards your goals.
I just celebrated my 1 year Anniversary from PFC, and I am still living a healthy lifestyle thanks to all the amazing instruction and support I received. It is the first time I have ever stuck with a program, and use the tools I was given on a daily basis. I truley encourage anyone thinking of spending time at PFC to do it now...you will not regret it. In addition to the healthy lifestyle I learned, I also made some amazing friends, that I still keep in touch with today! The staff at PFC are the best you could possibly ask for, and I hope to go back again one day!!! Thanks PFC!
My wife and I decided to jumpstart our year. Premier Fitness Camp was the best combination of workouts and healthy cuisine we could find. All the trainers were friendly, energetic and extremely knowledgeable with regards to all styles of exercise. I would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a week or longer to concentrate on getting into a healthier lifestyle.
Premier Fitness Camp is a wonderful place to build knowledge and develop a commitment to personal health/fitness goals. The food is incredible, the staff are amazing, and the trainers are incredibly gifted.
Premier Fitness Camp was everything and more we had hoped to experience. The meals are incredibly delicious and satisfying and the chef is extremely devoted to sharing his meal prep tips. The nutritionist lectures and grocery store tour are very helpful for preparing you to go home and continue to make good food choices. The behavior health professional had well prepared and informational lectures as well. The trainers are top notch- the best you ll find. They make it fun but push hard and watch form and technique to ensure you ll be successful at reaching your goals. All in all, we left feeling prepared to maintain our new lifestyle and left happy with our results. Thank you PFC!
From the beginning, I was floored by the passion and compassion of the staff, the quality of the food and the variety of workouts. I came to PFC to change my life, restart my battery and learn new ways of living. PFC has delivered, and then some! Everyone on the team brings their all every day and the people who come here are simply wonderful. I still have 5 weeks left and I can t wait to see the results! I already have seen results and my energy has been restored. What a gift this place is!
It's amazing and life changing. What sets it apart is the staff, all of the trainers are incredible people who truly help and care if you succeed. They really stay true to their motto about the mind coming first, they aren't just going make you workout or eat healthy, they're going to inspire you and walk with you as you change your life.
I've been to PFC twice in the past year. Having been in the military for 20 years, I was fairly fit. That is, until I retired. I was feeling quite down about how I had let myself go and was wanting an experience that would not only help me get back into shape, but something that was easy to continue after I left the camp. PFC did not disappoint! I'm going to break down every aspect about the experience separately so anyone can get a much better idea of how great this experience can be for you. First, the physical training is intense! They begin the week by giving everyone a physical fitness test. This will not only help to evaluate where you are in your current fitness level, but it will also help you evaluate how well their training is at the end of the week/weeks. I'm not going to give away all of their secrets, but let me tell you that you will be working out every morning with some intensity. Whether it's circuit training, boxing, weights, TRX, or any combination of the above, you will never get the feeling that you did not get a good workout. After a vigorous workout in the morning, the afternoon sessions are a great end to the day. You will have the opportunity to do one of many different things. Some of the afternoon activities range from different hikes, bike rides, beach walks, rock climbing, or even canoeing in the harbor. They are deceptively a really good workout. I say deceptive because everything is fun and beautiful scenery, but also a good workout without realizing it sometimes. Second, the staff. I thoroughly enjoyed all of the training and activities, but the staff is second to none! They are honestly more like a family. They will help you with whatever you need while you're there. Seriously...whatever you need! You will get advice/training on fitness, nutrition, mental wellness, and cooking to name a few. The trainers will do whatever they can to help you not only enjoy your time there, but will also do whatever they can to help you succeed both while you're there and after you return home. It doesn't matter what your fitness level is when you get there, the trainers will do whatever they can to help you. They are the most positive and motivating people I have ever been around. And I can't tell you how much I needed them in my life at the time! They have a nutritionist and a life coach on staff who are always available for any questions or help. Let's face it, getting fit is way more than just working out. They are able to help guide your nutrition and mental habits to help you succeed. The final part of the staff machine that most people don't see is the office staff. Everyone will get to see them but not as much as the others. But let me tell you that they are the engine that will make your experience. Not only do they take care of accommodations and amenities, they are also always available to help after you have returned home. A part of this program is the care that they give you after you have left. The office will make sure you have everything you need in order to keep your experience going at home. Finally....the food. In my comments about staff, there is one group I didn't mention and that is the chef and his staff. I felt they deserved to be praised along with the food that they provide. As I mentioned, you can't get fit by only working out. It's a complete life change that PFC will offer and the food and education about food is one of the most important aspects of change. The chef at PFC is absolutely amazing. The food he provides will amaze you beyond belief. Food allergies? No problem. Lifestyle/religious choices? Pssh....bring it on! Chef will accommodate to whatever needs you may have in regards to food preferences and will make it absolutely delicious. You will receive three squares a day while you're there and snacks in between workouts. You won't be hungry! As I said, I've been twice in the past year and I plan on going back very soon. I suggest doing the Culinary Fit program.
I have really enjoyed my time at PFC. The staff is energetic, helpful, and committed to the wellness of every person there. Compared to only one other fitness-type place I have been, this camp is more oriented to exercise on a regular basis and you will get plenty of it at camp! You ll enjoy it.
The other thing I would mention is that the dietary approach is very balanced. This is not a low fat camp. This is not a no carb camp. This is not a secret supplement camp.
The food is amazing and plentiful. The setting at the hotel is absolutely stunning. And the San Diego weather does not hurt a bit!
Please give this camp careful consideration. I am glad I did! I m coming back with my wife.
Every element of this program is OUTSTANDING! The world-class trainers are extremely dedicated, caring, and knew just how to stretch my abilities and push me to succeed. We were exposed to SO many forms of exercise: circuit training, cross fit, spin classes, Pilates, hiking, resistance training, water aerobics, Tabata, etc I worked HARD for the calories I burned off -- and it FEELS so GOOD!...
The on-staff nutritionist taught me how to feed my body what it needs for optimal health. Through her lectures and even a grocery store trip, I now have the tools needed to make the right food choices and succeed at home. This, in conjunction with the SUPERB Chefs and kitchen staff, I have learned that I can eat both deliciously and cleanly and it is SO satisfying. You are not on a diet at PFC, you are simply giving your body what it needs. I have truly changed my relationship with food.
For a mindset change, we had lectures on everything from navigating restaurants to exercise physiology to how to transition from camp to home. I learned how to plan my improved lifestyle at home and set myself up for success. In addition to a 12-week home plan, I remain connected to the dedicated staff at Premier Fitness Camp who are prepared to answer any questions that I may have. Combined with that support is the support of the fellow campers whom I have had the privilege of meeting. They became like family to me! We have all talked about scheduling a reunion at PCF someday
After my incredible experience at PFC, I feel empowered with tools for success, motivated to continue what I have begun and inspired to teach my family what I have learned. I highly, highly recommend PFC This camp is weight loss and fitness the right way! It is the best investment you can make in yourself!
I am in week two of the camp and it has been such a motivating experience! I have never been pushed this physically hard for this many hours a day and been able to walk away with a smile on my face. The trainers have supported my family and I 100% no matter what level we were at. The support for one another within the camp is indescribable. They also provide ample education for you to learn how your body works, as well as how important your mindset is. The camp also provides all of your meals which are prepared by amazing in house chefs, they take the time and effort to customize to anyone's needs (I was a bit difficult with some food allergies) and make very healthy foods taste great, as well as educating you along the way. I already feeling successful and strong in beginning week two and intend on completing another two weeks. I can honestly say if given the opportunity I will be back, if only for a reset or reminder of how good it feels to be this healthy. I cant thank Tony (one of the Trainers) enough for getting me and my mom here and ALL the trainers for making me want to stay! It is a truly life changing experience.
Although I haven't attended Premier Fitness Camp, I would recommend it because I know one of the instructors there. Her name is Renee and she's an awesome person.
Back when I used to in the North County area, I would attend her spin classes. Her courses were always fun and energetic. The short hour flew by because I knew it.
She helped push me physically and mentally. The pool of sweat underneath my bike after class was proof.
Give Premier Fitness Camp a try and you'll be thankful you did.
I attended PFC for 3 weeks in the summer of 2015. The experience was incredibly hard, emotional, educational, and life changing! Since my visit, using all they taught me, I have lost a total of 80 pounds and my fitness level is better than it has ever been. The world-class trainers, staff, and facilities are well worth it!
I have been here for 4 weeks and thoroughly enjoyed every moment of it. I highly recommend this for all age groups. The PFC community is highly professional and genuinely care for every camper's progress. The follow-up is incredible. The food is very healthy and of restaurant quality. The lectures are very encouraging and motivational.
PFC was so much more than I expected! My expectations were to eat healthy food and exercise. However, I came away with so much more! Each staff member at PFC cares for the campers and the food is amazing! I m an extremely picky eater and I loved every single meal! I realized so many new things about my body, overall health and have all kinds of new ways how to incorporate healthy meals and exercise into my everyday life! I can say that PFC is truly life changing and I can t wait to come back!
This is an amazing experience not to be missed. The staff, the trainers and the entire culinary team are amazingly good at their jobs and make the guests feel like they are the most important person there. I just wanted to take them all home with me. If you are serious about getting fit or losing weight this is the place to come.
It's now been 1 year since I was at camp and I still use the same 4 exercise programs I created for myself, with the help of the trainers, to work out at home. I also love getting the blog posts they send out with inspirations and new exercises to try. It feels like I was just there.
PFC was the best thing I have ever done for myself. After 4 weeks my mind, body and spirit is healed and ready for a bright future! I have never felt healthier! The incredible team at PFC is second to none!!!
I spent 3 weeks here at PFC because at age 60, I was over weight and out of shape and frustrated at where the last 20-25 years had gone in regards to my health. I had devoted all my time to family and business which was all great and thriving except I did not stop to take care of myself. At age 55 I started thinking about this more and began trying to get some exercise and my wife and family helped with promoting healthier choices and I experienced some mild to moderate improvements but it was difficult to push myself. Then came a diagnosis of early stage Prostrate Cancer and the overwhelming advise from the Doctors was to lose weight and adjust my diet while they maintained active surveillance. I had considered "boot camps' previously but this diagnosis drove me to start doing some serious research. I found PFC which offered the total approach to fitness, diet, education and general well-being and it has been the best choice I have ever made in regards to my personal health. All the management and support staff have been exceptional and the trainers are world class and full of energy combined with the right doses of discipline, education and understanding of limitations while you get stronger. Thank you Tony, Megan, Rene, Candice and Debbie who took outstanding care of me while having a lot of fun.The dietary staff headed by Chef Jason was awesome and all the food was delicious and sustained me through all the active days. The nutritionist Jessica provided excellent lectures and information to take home and provided life blood analysis which proved to be very helpful and informative. The campers ranged in ages from 20-65 from all walks of life and the support and comradery that evolved was very enjoyable and many friends were made. My results have been fantastic as I have lost many pounds and inches, I am stronger and my fitness and stamina levels have returned. I highly recommend PFC and I hope to return in the future.
Premier Fitness at La Costa is a very impressive fitness camp. Beautiful location to begin with. 2nd, they have a staff that is very well educated and know their stuff. 3rd, well organized and do a tremendous job in educating and motivating their clientele.
Ive never posted a review on anything (good or bad). However, I would like to encourage you to have the PFC experience. Every single trainer is amazing, they push you hard but with loving care. If you consider attending PFC, ask for Diane. She is more than a sales person, she really cares about your success and happiness. Diane is a must!!! PFC is a well oiled machine. It has really changed my life in every single way.
I spent the last nine weeks at Premier Fitness Camp after researching my options online for many days. I chose PFC for many reasons; mainly due to the combination of their educational component along with the variety of physical training sessions that they offer six days a week. The philosophy of those who work, run, educate, and support this amazing program do everything to enforce their core (no pun intended) belief system. Through their fundamental philosophy; sharing and teaching through kindness, learning is enjoyable and easily motivated!! I will end my stay here shortly, however, I am certain to take home with me the many practices I've learned and repeated over and over since I started my journey at PFC. I also do not intend to stay away long, as this the best way to gift myself the promise to remain healthy into the future.
I want to live here. The staff are the warmest, toughest, most-caring trainers I have ever met. The food is amazing. If everyone knew how good clean eating could taste we would never eat a processed heap of food product again. My cholesterol dropped 70 points in 2 weeks. The facility is beautiful. My fellow campers were supportive and inspirational. We brought my whole family here for 3 weeks and it has changed our lives forever. My hopes that my son would learn the feeling of being, living, and eating healthy could not have been more realized. And now we are set to take what we learned home and live happier and healthier. I love this place!
PFC was a life changing experience! I gained lots of knowledge about myself, nutrition and exercise. I have gone through the program 2 times and highly recommend to anyone who wants to improve their health, mental state and fitness level.
The staff was amazing and listened and answered questions. They really care about each person and love their job.
Thanks PFC for making me healthier and happier! I feel 10 years younger!
At last - health, fitness, and weight loss success! After gaining unwanted weight and trying several approaches to get my health under control with no success, I reached a point where I was ready to give up. I had just completed three months of personal training and didn't have results to show for it. I honestly was ready to go for cosmetic surgery (and in fact had made several inquiries including completing an assessment) out of desperation. Instead, I decided that I wanted to actually be healthy (not only weigh less), lose weight sustainably, and learn how to maintain a healthy lifestyle for the future. I did a ton of research and found PFC plus a few other contenders. I chose PFC because it offered a holistic program - mind, emotions, body - and the exercise component of the program (albeit certainly intimidating!) sounded incredibly interesting. I chose a two-week stay and am just back, and boy am I pleased: 8 pounds lighter, 8 inches smaller, blood work showing phenomenal improvement, and equipped to sustain a healthy lifestyle. PFC taught me how to understand the motivations behind my poor eating choices and that I can indeed exercise intensely and for long periods without my middle age body giving up (lol)! Coming into the program I was pretty intimidated at the thought of all of the exercise and worried that I wouldn't be able to keep up. I was also dealing with a bad lower back and was afraid I either wouldn't get the benefit of the program or that I would re-injure it. My fears were unfounded: PFC's excellent trainers ensured I approached the physical activity the right way, and I came home strong and in great shape to continue my journey to health at home. In addition, the food was AMAZING!! (Go Jason and team!) Healthy, delicious, filling. Highly, highly recommend PFC!
Wow, one of the most amazing places to get your body sweaty, lots of non stop workouts, amazing Food amazing walks,amazing people, amazing trainers and the location is amazing , but at the end of your journey you go home with the spirit up high and ready to continue with you weight lose journey; Love you guys and miss you a lots
just Joined PFC for 2-weeks.; it was the best way to spend Holiday. I wish I had done it years ago. The location is perfect, the program is terrific, the trainers are exceptional, and the food is real gourmet. In addition to all the exercise and hiking by the sea/mountain, they also provide so much nutritional information and behavior change therapies. It is life changing event and I would highly recommend PFC
I am now just completing my third "stint" here at PFC. My results (157 lbs total weight loss --- over 3.5 years) have been stellar (by any metric)! And I am just one of many success stories that I have had the honour to witness firsthand over the years! My Body Fat has been cut by nearly 50%, my Lean Muscle Mass has increased by 31%. Personalized training with full-on oversight whilst working-out (kudos to Tony and his Team of highly-skilled Personal Trainers) is a daily event; gourmet food that everyone looks forward to (Thanks to Chefs Jason & Anthony --- ably assisted by Ms Alejandra) is a much-anticipated thrice daily event! Lots of well-researched and topical lectures which focus on behavior modification and learning new lifestyle / diet / nutrition / exercise protocols. Dara and Co. ably over the administration of the PFC juggernaut. What the "Camper" gets to see is a well-oiled and very efficient machine! What's not to like? Losing the weight is, of course, only part of the struggle --- and quite probably, the "easy" part of this process. Keeping it off, however, off is the ultimate long-term goal --- and I can truthfully say that I have (during my 3 separate "incarcerations" here at PFC) been totally (and successfully) at being "re-programmed"--- and that I now feel very confident that I have ALL of the tools necessary to ensure that I am able to live a leaner and much healthier life from this point onwards. Thanks to everyone at "Team PFC"! I can honestly say that 3.5 years ago (at 66 years of age) I would not (on a typical Sunday afternoon here in SoCal) have been spending my "day-off" from the PFC Fitness Camp in Mission Bay cruising around at 30' in the on a HydroBoard....
Wow! Couldn t imagine a better place to learn how to eat healthy, move properly, and think positively. The staff is so kind and knowledgeable, it s no wonder this place is THE #1 fitness camp out there. Highly recommend this place to anyone interested in bettering their health on all fronts.
I have been home for almost a month since attending PFC and I still don't have the words to properly express how much this place means to me!!
I am a college student who found the freshman 15 to look a little bit more like the freshman 40 and needed a place to go and figure out how to make some adjustments to my lifestyle. I have been overweight for as long as I can remember and I have tried every diet and workout plan known to man. But there is just something about this place!!
From the moment I stepped through those doors, I felt encouraged, understood, and MOTIVATED. The trainers are unlike any other and I never felt uncomfortable or judged by anyone at PFC (which when you're overweight becomes your expectation of any fitness facility). Their compassion and drive to help lift you out of whatever situation you have gotten yourself into is astounding.
Since I have been home I have continued the progress I made at camp. I have lost inches and pounds like I never knew I would be able to do on my own. Their program is doable and I am forever grateful for the people at PFC who invested in my future and taught me how to workout and have fun at the same time!!
I stayed at PFC for 6 weeks and lost 22lbs and 15 inches. To say this place changed my life is an understatement. I will be back again and again!!
Life Altering Experience - I thank PFC Fitness Camp for starting me on my way to health and most likely one reason why I am still alive today. When checking in at PFC, my weight was 288 pounds. By the end of the one week camp I attended I had lost 17 pounds (yes, 17 pounds).It's been a few years since I have attended this camp, but what I learned in that one week has paid major dividends to me in all facets my life not only health and fitness. I am now down to 191 pounds. I eat healthier, have a more positive mental attitude and I am finally back to being fit. I wish to thank all of the staff at PFC Fitness Camp.
The best thing I ever did in my life was go to PFC! They are not in it for the money. Its all about the campers! They are an AMAZING group of dedicated people who truly care for every person from all walks of life, who come in to this camp. They welcome you in "LIKE FAMILY" I was truly blessed to be able to spend 8 weeks there. (I wish it could of been longer) Not for one minute did I want to go home or thought I made a mistake by choosing PFC. PFC changed my life and my thought process for becoming a much healthier ME! PFC is the whole package! If you are thinking about going anywhere... Don't wait! GO! Even for a week! You will not be let down! Do it! You actually do have something to lose! Your old self!
I am finishing up my third week at PFC and am so thankful for this journey. This is what was needed for me to get hold of my life again and start feeling good again. This is a first class place with the most incredible staff. From the chefs to the trainers, they have all made this the most positive environment. I felt at home the minute I got here and want to keep in touch after I am gone. I can t say enough great things about this place and it s people.
It would be hard to imagine a better program to address health and wellness. A complete program staffed by incredible professionals commited to its clients success. Brian, Candice, Renee, Wendy, Megan, Chef Jason, Jessica and Tony thank you! I would recommend this program to anyone interested in improving their mindset, health and well being.
Premier Fitness Camp was an amazing experience!!! The trainers and staff are amazing. They care about your goals and well being. They are knowledgeable and help each individual achieve their goals.
I have "worked out" in some form or fashion most of my life but my husband has not. When he suggested PFC, I was very excited that he was making this step towards a healthier lifestyle and becoming more fit. I backed him all the way thinking this would be a great thing to experience together and that I could learn something new along the way too. Well it was a GREAT experience, and LEARN I did! I learned that PFC is for everyone regardless of age, size or ability and the knowledgeable and professional trainers will encourage you to be your best. I learned the value of a fitness program combining cardio and strength training and that I am capable of so much more than what I had been doing. I learned to set up my own effective fitness program that does not require going to the gym; that can be done from wherever I may be traveling to. I learned a lot about how to better balance my diet with extremely tasty dishes made with simple ingredients, how to eat healthy when traveling, and the importance of regular, healthy snacks. I learned the importance and effectiveness of "mindful eating." During all this learning I met a caring group of PFC staff members. I also got to know a bunch of great "campers" who were all working towards their own personal goals yet always encouraging their fellow campers. Most importantly I have seen the change in my husband. Thank you PFC.
Best week ever! The trainers are knowledgeable and supportive. The food is out of this world and the location is ideal for being outside. I would highly recommend this place for any weight or training level - they work with you on your own goals.
The best fitness facility in the world. The trainers, owners and staffs are superb! 6 stars quality!!! Exercises are filled with fun activities and games. And the food provided is world class, healthy and yet scrumptious.
The staff is so supportive and knowledgeable my daughter and I cried when we left. While I still struggle with the scale at times I can always contact them or refer back to my notes and literature to get back on track. I learned from the camp that there was so much I could do that I never imagined I could. And I loved the food!!! Am looking forward to returning soon.
I was so impressed with PFC! The staff was amazing. You could tell the clients felt very comfortable and loved. There was a very positive energy amongst the staff. The food was delicious and presented beautifully. Beautiful setting
As an educator I am off for the summer months and look forward to leaving New York in order to meet people from all walks of life and to be physically fit at the same time. Last summer I attended PFC for three and a half weeks and now I am just about to complete my three week journey this summer. Upon returning home last summer, I found myself missing PFC and the wonderful friends I had made as well as the structure and routines that were set in place. All of the staff created an open-door policy and allowed me to send them updates and photos of my meal prep/work-outs. To this day, I find myself using their words during my own workouts when I feel like giving up as well when I am tempted by poor food choices.
At PFC you will find a team of extraordinary professionals of tremendous versatility, intelligence and discipline. The trainers have great knowledge of body mechanics, muscle function and are capable of determining the individual abilities of their campers. Their pleasant and positive attitude is a great asset of their willingness to work with campers at their own level. They instill confidence and encouragement to make you want to work further and apply yourself more diligently and for those reasons I cannot wait return to PFC next summer!
What a great way to reset your life ! Nutritionally, fitness and mind/body/spirit. I found everyone encouraging and extremely professional. Anyone any size and any age can benefit from this experience! The food is delicious , the training top notch and mental wellness lectures very on topic ! Can t wait to come back:)
When I returned home after 4 weeks and was asked by friends to describe my experience, I answered, Exceeded expectations. I knew I would be exercising like I d never exercised before but I didn t know I would ENJOY it! There was a great variety of activities and the trainers were so encouraging and professional. Chef Jason and Jacque made our healthy food delicious and beautiful. Our nutritionist, Jessica, gave us practical and doable advice to prepare us for real life when we return home. My husband and I were looking for a healthy lifestyle change in order to enjoy our retirement and found so much more than we expected!
Fun and healthy way to lose weight, get fit, and change your habits. The staff makes your feel like you and your success is important to them from the minute you arrive, and, they continue to reach out once you get home!
I was worried, scared, nervous and hopeful when I arrived at the camp weighing 436lbs. What will I possibly be able to do? Will they be mean? Will I hate the food? Will I be hungry all the time? The answers were: Lots! They crafted my workouts according to what I could do, then pushed me just a bit harder. And the remaining answers? No, no and NO!!! I spent 4 weeks there, and another week 12 weeks later. I have never been happier. The trainers are the best!!!!
This place completely brought me out of my funk. I had lost my passion for treating my body with the respect it deserves and in doing so gained weight. The PFC program renewed my love of exercise, eating well, and (most importantly) love of myself!! The trainers are so fun and friendly and super encouraging to any and all fitness levels. I wish I could have stayed longer than 4 weeks!!
I was at PFC for 9 weeks in total and it was the most INCREDIBLE experience I've ever had! The activities, the food, and especially the staff (Tony, Renee, Megan, & Kandice) are what makes this camp the best there is! I was going down a pretty unhealthy path before I came to PFC but once I was there it was like everything clicked into place. I learned so much and I will bring that knowledge with me for the rest of my life. PFC is exactly what I needed to get back on track and I HIGHLY recommend this camp to anyone who is interested in working on reaching healthier goals! I can not wait to go back! :)
Premier Fitness Camp has been the most amazing experience! The whole day each day is a well thought out balance of exceptional training by the greatest trainers I have ever been around! They are super motivating and fun to be around during In the hikes and the other creative calorie burning activities. The gym and outdoor facilities are top notch. Chef Jason and staff are fantastic and Jason is a super creative master chef! All the meals are great! I had a little different experience getting here as I was procrastinating my way out of changing my life like I should have years ago. My family did an intervention on me and it was an eye opener for me as they said time is now you got to do it now for you and us! They were done with hearing my excuses! My daughter cinched the deal by having printed info on Premier Fitness Center in her hand which we looked at and promised to call and check it out and called them in the morning and I signed up and haven t looked back!!! The place food and people are out of this world.
I attended this camp a few years back. I LOVED it!!! It was run very well. The staff and accommodations are amazing! My whole experience while staying here couldn't have been better. The staff was very knowledgeable and were able to help address my personal reasons for attending. They helped me set attainable goals and then helped me reach them. The things that I learned from my stay here have been things that I have been able to apply in my life back at home! I would definitely recommend this camp to my friends!
You are making an investment in yourself. The return on investment is up to you. PFC will give you the opportunity to maximize your return but you have to be willing to put forth enough effort to get a return. While I was at PFC I listened to the instructors, participated in the programs, and worked on improving myself inside and out. The results at PFC were the best I ever had for the time invested. Some people worked harder and received greater returns either in weight loss or stronger muscles or a better figure. As I learned the how's and why's it got easier to work harder. I got more out of my actions and the hard things became easier so I would do more of them. At PFC It's all about getting the best return for the time and effort invested. And yes your surroundings and accommodations are fantastic. Thank you To all the staff at PFC for helping maximize the return on my investment.
I love my PFC family! The PFC team is so passionate and authentic. You can actually feel how genuine they are in caring about you and wanting you to achieve your goals...there are no words. Thank you PFC.
This February will mark my twenty year anniversary of living with type 1 diabetes. although this sounds like an achievement I barely managed to get by the first seventeen. I came to PFC with the desperate hope that I would find a way to thrive with my illness. It was the best decision I ever made for my health. You're are surrounded by staff that know exactly how to educate, encourage, guide, and push you to see what you are truly capable of and more, and campers who offer compassion, perspective and inspiration. I often share my experience with others by saying "before camp..." or "after PFC..." I don't see this changing anytime soon, for I am truly grateful for all that I learned during my stay at PFC and honor my time there by continuing to apply those lessons to my everyday. I am the healthiest I've ever been and look forward and aim to have my healthy years with diabetes outnumber my unmanageable ones.
Premier Fitness Camp is by far the most incredible and fun place to turn your life around. PFC focuses on complete body, mind, and overall wellness transformation. Not to mention the bonds you make with both staff members and other campers... you leave with an entirely new outlook on life, a strong, supportive, fun, caring new family, and a body and mind that are healthier than they've ever been!
My experience at camp was life changing. The program is well thought out, managed superbly, and, best of all, executed in a manner in which you leave with extreme confidence in yourself. I would recommend PFC to anyone who is looking to take control of their health!
I was not one of those who had a good experience at Premier fittness camp. I found the instructors to be very cliquish and when I went out on a hike they prefer to go ahead with the more popular people at the camp and they left me struggling by myself. I really found that they had favourite guests who they have relationships with because They have been there for periods of time. I was just there for a week and did not have the same chance to bond as others. I feel that those Who struggle need even more help in those who don't. They tell you that if you need any help just call after you leave and they should get back to you within a short period of time no one ever got back to me at all but the questions that I had. The most positive person in the experience was the chef who is very inviting and made everybody feel welcome. I would not recommend PFC as a workout weight loss camp. I wouldn't have said anything but now you are asking?
Life changing experience. I went for 2 weeks with my 78 year dad and we both felt that the program was perfectly tailored to own needs despite the vast difference in our ages and physical ability. That is attributed to PFC s incredibly designed program and made meaningful and impactful by the incredible group of trainers and program staff that make it all happen.
I have been going to PFC for 6 years, pretty much since they opened in San Diego. It took a while for it to all sink in mentally for me because I only have about a week to 10 days to give each year to PFC, but slowly and surely I am winning the battle because of the fine people and this amazing place. I learn so much each time I come about nutrition and exercise, but mostly about myself. I still have about 40 pounds that I want to lose and I am on my last quest to do it with much support from the amazing staff. They keep in touch with me throughout the year and I am lucky to call them my friends. They are caring, but they push me to be the best I can be. I don't know what it is about this place, but every time I go, I can be myself among people that are on their own but similar journey and wonderful bonds are created.
I was a somewhat reluctant participant. After getting there I changed my mind about things and now I m a firm supporter. They have a great program.I also felt one week is not enough. We were there for two . It would be nice to do it one a quarter to get fully committed to a long lifestyle change. I highly recommend it to everyone needing a healthy change in their life s direction
My experience at PFC was amazing. Not only would I highly recommend it to others, but I would do it again to build on what I accomplished and reset from the stress of work etc. I went for two weeks, which seemed to me to be a sweet spot/minimum for first timers. It was such a well designed and organized program. The top notch trainers somehow managed to cater to individual goals and fitness levels while creating an amazing group experience. It was really the shared struggles and accomplishments with fellow campers that made this an experience I will never forget.
This place has turned my life around more than once. All of the trainers are phenomenal and the workouts are a lot of fun! I can't wait to come back here, it's one of my favorite places on Earth!
After 2 weeks in a 4 week program, I feel like I left my old body at the curb & there is a new body evolving. The program is making my mind and body stronger and enthusiac about wanting to continue this healthy lifestyle. I recommend it to anyone that is serious about making a positive change through nutrition and exercise. There is only 1 word to describe the entire staff @ PFC, AWESOME!
Premier Fitness Camp (PFC) is one of the best decisions I have ever made. I couldn't think of a better way to invest in yourself! My boyfriend and I both spent considerable amount of time at PFC (him 11 weeks, me 4 weeks). Not only did we lose weight (easiest part), but we changed our entire outlook on health and life. We learned how to change our mindset through education on behavior, nutrition, and maintainable workout plans. The trainers - Renee, Candice, Tony, Deb, and Todd - are all excellent. Jessica (nutritionist) is excellent and takes the time to individually work with each client. Chef Jason is the ABSOLUTE BEST wellness chef around - he makes it fun to eat and cook. His energy is hard to match. Dr. Mantell's lectures will provide many "ah-ha" moments where it makes sense why weight loss in the past has been unsuccessful. Overall - incredible experience. I look forward to continuing to visit PFC annually. LOVE PFC!
Not only did the PFC program help me improve my physical wellness but the staff greatly effected my emotional health. They changed the way I thought about myself and about myself and about my weight loss journey. I love PFC and to do this I am still in contact with the trainer who helped inspire me and change my outlook on weight loss. I went to just lose weight but I left having gained a support system and family that I had never had before. They do not stop caring once you leave they will stay keep supporting through your journey. I highly recommend PFC to anyone weather they need to lose weight or not. "Those goals won't get themselves."<3
I can't even begin to describe my experience at PFC! I was in a very serious rut as far as working out and eating right. I was at the end of my rope and new I needed to do something serious! PFC was the answer! I went there with the hope of completing two weeks. After day one, I was hooked. The trainers are so incredibly motivating and fun! I actually looked forward to the workouts! They were incredibly knowledgeable and always there to help you go one step further than you thought you could! Not only did I complete the two weeks, I signed up for a third! They helped get me back my mojo back! I plan on going back next year with some girlfriends!
A true life transformation physically and mentally. The professional staff are simply the best. They truly care about everyone that wants to walk thru the PFC door.
I have been thru the program twice for 1 week at a time. Each time has boosted my self confidence, and I have learned a lifestyle that can be managed at home, work and on the road.
I'm down 20+ pounds in 5 weeks. I feel great, I'm closer to my wife and I am healthier than I've been since college.
A special thanks to the staff. You are truly special and caring people. You've changed my life.
Thanks Chef Jason . The fantastic food prepared was fresh and delicious!
This place is amazing. I was a little nervous about coming because I didn t know what to expect. But the staff is incredible.
Every one of the trainers are great. They help every step along the way and you never feel intimidated by any of the exercises or activities.
The staff and the other guests really give this place a community feel. The Center Court are on the property is a great gathering place for everyone to feel at home. I would recommend this to anyone.
I spent two weeks at camp and WOW! It was a love/hate experience . My body hated each moment I pushed, sweated, huffed etc. , but loved the feeling of accomplishment each day. The food was fantastic. I looked forward to each mealtime. I was most impressed with the staff. They were mindful and supportive. I took home with me a wealth of knowledge on nutrition, fitness, and overall health. Thank you PFC.
Just finished a two week stay (signed up for one week, by day 3 in I was extending). This place is the REAL DEAL. Chef Jason cooks everything from his heart and it's friggin amazing food.. The trainers.. Renee, Tony and Candice are in love with what they do. Each of them have a strong desire to get you to the best version of yourself. They work out with you, teach you perfect form and how to modify any exercise. They take the time to know you, talk to you, share a meal with you... they truly meet you where you are in life.. (and fun as hell!) Jessica is the sweetest most knowledgeable nutritionist ever. Her talk sessions where real, and easy to see fitting into my life. To be honest. I felt in love with this place, Id like to be there now and all summer long. I came home a new person in just two weeks. One last comment. I have made life long friends at PCF.. you become a loving family when you workout, eat and relax next to each other day by day..
PFC is the real deal. It is perfect for anyone who wants to make health and wellness a priority in their life.
No matter what shape, age or mental state you are in presently, the training staff, nutrition experts and professional counselors will work with you to help you kick start changes that can last a lifetime.
This is not a day spa , it is a life spa . Every dimension of how you think, how you eat and how you move/exercise is addressed in a positive and non-threatening way.
I could not be happier and I will carry this program into my daily routine as I return home.
The most important thing I realized at PFC, was that it wasn't too late to turn around the bad habits and the fun that came from making those changes. PFC will forever be in my future! T
I have been the PFC now 4 times and will be back again. My doctor recommends that I come every year for an "annual tune-up". It helps me physically, emotionally, and mentally. They say stress will kill you, but who wants to die early from stress? I have researched the entire US for something equal to PFC and it does NOT exist! The weather, the people you meet from all around the world, the trainers are literally in a good mood every day, the nutritionist is the BEST I have ever met and I will NEVER let her go from my life. And now they have added a 5 star chef so the food is 5 star restaurant quality. Not to mention the resort/hotel! I am still friends and keep up with people I met here in 2012 and continue to meet them here as much as I possibly can. I know I am crazy, but this is my favorite vacation because I am taking care of myself! LOVE PFC!
Best decision i have ever made! Has an awesome and knowledgeable staff. Would recommend this facility to anyone. I have not been able to lose weight in years and I was finally successful with PFC!
Great staff. Very knowledgeable and love their jobs of helping people at the camp. They are trying to help people make life style changes for the long term.
