Reviews of California Elite Training Center (Gym)

Janet Dryer

This is the nicest gym in SD not to mention Southern California. If you powerlift, or do crossfit this is the spot to train. This gym has everything you could possibly want. The equipment is top of the line. If you train conjugate this should be your home, I couldn't imagine a better place to train when in SD.

I love how much inspiration this place has to offer. From the strongest and most informed coaches to a great atmosphere where everyone just pushes each other to get stronger . Weather you re an elite or a novice , this is the place to train ! The head coach Gracie v and her team are amazing !! They push and their goal is to just get you strong . My experience with them has taught me to be brave , push myself for results and just work hard ! If you re not training here, you re not training right ! So hurry up and join CETC!

Been with CETC since it opened and wouldn't dream of going anywhere else. This place has the best variety of specialty and standard equipment, Crossfit area, tons of training space, legit parking, and qualified coaching staff. What's not to love?? Come check it out, prices are very competitive.

Whenever I'm in the San Diego area this is the gym I MUST go to!! My coach is the owner of the gym and she is great! She has really helped me post surgery become a much stronger lifter! CETC has everything you would need no matter what kind of lifting you do!! GO! You won't be disappointed!

By far the best gym I've been to! Top notch equipment and super motivating environment. Very family friendly with a lot of options for different types of training (powerlifting, crossfit, bodybuilding). The coaches and trainers are some of the best people I know.

California Elite Training Center is the premier place to train in the SoCal area. Beautiful large facility with all the specialty equipment one could ever need. From Powerlifting to Crossfit they have a knowledgeable staff of elite level subject matter experts to help you achieve your goals of competition, maintaining general fitness and pre/post injury rehab.

Crossfitdcs is the perfect san diego gym if you are new to crossfit. I recommend you visit them today.

Bee Pagarigan

Badass gym for serious athletes and home of the DCS Pack. If you're committed and willing to learn you will grow exponentially at this gym as an athlete. Whether you are a powerlifter, into CrossFit, an Oly competitor, or just like lifting heavy things the staff works hard at making you feel right at home.

Wesley Paben

Awesome place to lift and great atmosphere!

Andrew Ottaway

Best powerlifting gym in San Diego

Brandon Moss

I love this place! Great gym for beginner and veteran powerlifters alike. Super friendly staff and patrons. Not one person seems to be too intimidated to step in and "correct" or just help a fellow lifter out.

I've been coming here for about 5 months or so now. I can honestly say that my strength and technique has definitely increased within that short time. Gracie and everyone else that I train with there are like a second family and I wouldn't want to train anywhere else.

This place is great. The programming is really solid and the atmosphere is great. Gracie and her passion for training really shine through. The coaching is phenomenal and the equipment and variety match as well.

Kara Newsome

Honestly can't say enough; awesome place!

lorena deanda

Training with Gracie has improved my lift in numbers! Trainers know what they are doing. Would totally recommend it! Atmosphere is the best! Everyone works together as a team and supports each other.

This is hands down the best gym in socal I have ever seen or been to. Not only the equipment but the people are amazing. I haven't been to a gym where I was intimidated to go to like I was at this gym but as soon as I got inside that all changed thanks to the kind inviting people that probably saw the intimidation I was feeling and before I knew it I was one of them loaded up under a monolift for the first time doin some skwaats!

Derek Collister

If you live even remotely close and don't train at this gym you should come by and realize what you're missing out on. This gym has everything you need to better yourself whether you're a competitive powerlifter/strongman/Olympic lifter, or just wanting to better yourself. The coaches are great, the gym and its members are very helpful. The specialty equipment found here is cutting edge. I highly suggest you come by for a visit and see what CETC can offer you.

JJ Romanowski

If you are looking for overwhelming amounts of yelling, slaps, and heavy weights... this is the place. If not, stay at planet fitness.

Peri Smith

Great facilities and coaching!

Kiegan Gibson

Best gym I've been to by far! Home of the DCS pack and perfect for crossfit/powerlifting. Great coaches and great athletes that motivate everybody around them.

Erin Norris

This gym is made for all training levels , the atmosphere is welcoming . I train online with Gracie and in the last 5 months my strength has increased so much . If it wasn't for Gracie , I would've never done my first powerlifting meet . I highly reccomend this gym to everyone, the staff is full of knowledge and very helpful .

Taylor Aglio

This place is gym heaven! There is every piece of equipment you can imagine and the training atmosphere is unreal. I started being coached by Gracie this past January and I have seen such a drastic change in my lifts not only in numbers but form. All the coaches are friendly, knowledgeable and always willing to help. If you are in San Diego you should definitely stop by you will be amazed at the facility.

California Elite Training Center cators towards personal goals and self development. Gracie and staff strive to provide the tools and equipment to make people better. As a powerlifter, this is a fantastic place to achieve personal goals. It has all the specialty equipment one could ask for including a monolift and deadlift platform. Members are very supportive of each other creating a family-like feel. Gracie also offers strength based crossfit. She knows what she's doing and there's a reason why she's one of the best in the industry. No matter what level of fitness you are at, I would highly recommend California Elite Training Center to achieve personal goals.
