| - I met the owner Stefannie at a LocalFirst AZ event and was so interested in her place. I had been looking for a "gym" but I had very specific wish list. I didn't want a big box gym, didn't want Barbie's hanging out doing nothing while I'm sweating like a pig and trying to lose 50 lbs, wanted a local place that was intimate but encouraging and full of energy. I also wanted something that wasn't just an aerobics class but something that really focused on strength and endurance. Well what do you know...DeLa Fit!
I tried the free introductory Tricore class she offers and wow. 18 minutes of endurance/cardio, 20 minutes of strength training, and another 20 of flexibility which was pilates. This isn't stuff for your grandma (unless grandma is a badass). Rowing, lunging, twisting, medicine balls, terracore squats with weights, backward burpees and then finally....pilates. I think they do offer other classes and personal training but this is just the Tricore program that I'm reviewing. The trainers are knowledgeable and very encouraging. Not in a ridiculous cheerleader way but just enough of what you need to feel good. They also offer bottled water and nice clean fresh towels.The equipment is nice, new, and clean. They make sure after each group goes through, they sanitize and wipe each piece of equipment. They focus heavily on form and doing it the right way to prevent injury. You get the personalized attention that you would not get from a big box gym or even Orange Theory at this point (they are just too big now).
The last couple of weeks have been extremely stressful for me and I was starting to get in a rut and my energy was very low. I was very tense and was hoping this would help me a little. I felt incredible after. I know that sounds cliche but seriously, I was so relaxed on my drive home and barely had enough in me to take a shower before hitting the pillow. I was sore the next day but not too bad. I definitely will be signing up for the 2x a week plan which will be just enough for me. One thing I wish they did have was a locker room with showers. I go here after work and it would be nice to jump in for a quick shower before I drive all the way to west valley, which is where I live but I'll sacrifice that for everything else. They do have a good sized bathroom with nice hygiene products for use, which was nice. They also have a cubbie up front that you can put your purse, bag, keys whatever. It's always within eye shot too.
Give her introductory free Tricore class a try - you will not regret it.
