Liber8Fit Underground - San Diego, California

I have tried various different workout classes in San Diego but this place is above and beyond! I genuinely look forward to going even if it means getting up early. Angela is so kind and welcoming and really sets the tone for a positive, encouraging community. Highly recommend it, it's the best!

Liber8Fit is an incredible gym with knowledgable and motivating trainers. The structure is primarily organized around group cross training classes (except on Fridays, with the open gym) and the classes are currently organized in a format that really covers every muscle in the body. Mondays and Wednesdays take on a focus of lower- and upper-body, respectively, while Tuesdays and Thursdays have a heavier cardio component; I have never experienced the same workout twice. Furthermore, I have never had trouble actually booking a class I want to visit, so you don't need to worry about making the commitment to sign up, but then learn that all of the classes you want to visit are full. This gym is definitely for you if you want to learn to use free weights properly and efficiently and challenge yourself to do things you never thought you could. I wholeheartedly recommend Liber8Fit and its amazing community.

Liber8 is truly the best gym I have ever been a part of. The entire team of trainers are all so kind, knowledgeable, very approachable, and relatable. The gym itself is a welcoming environment and the members are real, down to earth people. This is the perfect spot for anyone looking for a good workout in a safe and welcoming environment. A lot of gyms these days feel intimidating to walk into, but Liber8 felt like home from day 1. Cannot recommend enough!

I have been training for 13+ years in a gym environment and Liber8 has been literally one of the best! The workouts are all class based (except on Fridays which is open gym but will still have workouts on the board if you want a structured routine) starting with a stretch, warm-up, then the actual workout followed by a cool down. The work outs kick my ass and leave me super sweaty (bring a towel) and with a smile every time. To be honest I was skeptical at first, coming from a lifting gym, I was not sure if it would be the right fit (I would typically spend 2 hours a session at my old gym) but boy was I wrong- within my first year I gained a whopping 6 pounds of muscles which was insane for me- and maintained a 9% body fat level.

This brings me to my next point which is, the trainers here ROCK and they know what they are doing. I have taken some advice and learned what I could about working out from friends and the internet but was definitely hitting a hard wall once I hit about my 8th year of training. Not only that, but I was riddled with injuries from working out improperly. The trainers here take a vested interest in your success and well being by making sure you are aware of the physical ques in the workouts. They are quick to jump on over and correct you when they see bad form as well as motivate and push you to your limits. I have had amazing gains and also noticeably less injuries which means I can work out even harder! WOOOOO

Finally one of the coolest things about this gym is the community. I have never made so many friends at a gym before and how everyone supports one another is beautiful. Times are trying and times are hard so community like this means the world to me!! So if you are local to the North Park/ Hillcrest area come and check us out!!

Huge shout out to the owner Angela for cultivating such a wonderful space and huge shout out to all the trainers! Especially Trainer Cait and Trainer Dom!

This is by far the best gym experience ever! It’s much more than a gym. It’s a supportive community filled with fun, inclusion, and challenge - in all the right ways! 💪🏽 They have the best trainers, amazing music, and every day is a different workout so your muscles will always be activated. Oh and there is a variety of in-door and out-door activities which is a huge plus. So if you’re looking for a place to test your limits while making friends and having fun… this is the place for you!

I love Liber8! I honestly can't say enough amazing things about this gym, along with Alyssa and Angela. They both care so much about everyone who steps through the door, and are great about motivating you during class. No two workouts are the same, which I really love! Classes are challenging but Ang and Alyssa are great about providing modifications. I've been going to Liber8 for about a year and a half, and I've grown so much stronger and more confident. I also love the community they've built - everyone helps lift each other up and encourage each other (and even cheer you on when you're stuck doing sprawls, haha). Liber8Fit incorporates fun weekend activities, like kickball, hikes, and beach workouts. They also host monthly challenges throughout the year, and help you create and set goals for yourself. I've tried a lot of different workouts and gyms, but none compare to Liber8Fit!

I was a member of Liber8FIt Underground for 3 months while I was working a travel contract in San Diego and I LOVED IT! It is my faviorite gym I have joined in all of my travels and I wish I could take it with me! The gym atmosphere is welcoming and encouraging. The trainers are knowledgeable and can offer modifications and form corrections, all while being positive and motivating. I also love that all the trainers, including the owner, are badass strong women! Each class keeps you on your toes with new templates and a large variety of exercises/equiptment. I always left feeling like I got in a great workout! I am sad to leave the San Diego area and will miss Liber8Fit and the community there!!
