The instructors are amazing and curate different challenging workouts every week. Other gym peers are also very friendly and encourage you to push your limits. Very positive motivating vibe! Wish I had joined it earlier!!! :)

My husband and I have been going to Panthro since the end of September and we really love it. We started with semi-private classes which was a great introduction for us to see what Panthro was all about. The boot camp classes are lots of fun (and hard work) and each week and day is different so you dont get bored of the same routine that you might get in other fitness studios. I love that the classes are small and you get lots of feedback from the trainers. Weve worked mostly with Olivia and she is so personable and really cares about your progress. Although we havent trained with Rosie, we love it when shes around because she just oozes with great energy and keeps us pumped!We look forward to continuing our fitness journey with Panthro. You guys are bomb

Been a member of Panthro for a few years now. The trainers are some of the nicest, motivational, and caring humans on the planet. The other members are like family. Such a great experience... its not about how much you can push, pull, or move. Its about providing that energy for the next person to be the best version of themselves. Zero pretension, total results.

Panthro is the perfect place if you are looking for a community that pushes you to achieve your goals and cheers you on along your journey.They have different classes to pick from, depending on your interests. I really like the metabolic classes; they are never exactly the same, but always challenging and customizable depending on your fitness level.Due to the smaller size of classes, coaches will get to know you individually and call on your BS when you are lazy and pick a lower weight than you should or dont choose the harder modification for your level.They also offer challenges (e.g. weight loss), classes (e.g. on nutrition, posture, foam rolling) and events (like a scavenger hunt + food & drinks) for the entire gym.If you are looking for more than just a gym, this is your community!

Panthro is great. I’ve been taking their semi private classes for almost a year. I’d highly recommend them because their coaches are great. I’ve worked mostly with Rosie and Chris and they have done a great job teaching me technique, critiquing my form, and motivating me. They’re friendly and understand clients well. Chris in particular has previous PT experience, so he’s very well versed in body mechanics and muscle functions, which carries over into improving technique as well. Reggie the owner is very personable as well. They’re great about allowing makeups and changing class times as well. They give solid general health and diet advice as well. A few of the other younger trainers who I’ve occasionally worked with I wasn’t impressed with. Sometimes the classes are a bit full as well, so I typically get times that are less crowded. Overall this is the best gym experience I’ve ever had - and would strongly recommend it.

More than just a gym! When you are going through the hardest times they truly care about you in and out of the gym. I’ve been a client for almost 4 years and Panthro is still my favorite place to be. All of the trainers are great and make each class different and fun. I have been training with Rosie the longest and I can’t say enough how amazing she is! She is so inspiring, motivating and will challenge you to do more. She loves what she does and it shows with the energy she puts into every class. Another reason I love it here is the community. It’s really encouraging to see 8 people cheering for 1 person hitting their personal record. I can’t say enough great things about Panthro and I highly recommend it.

I have been going to Panthro since February and don’t know what I would do without this place. I’m a semi-private client which is great for me since it’s a very small personal basically one-on-one experience. I’m someone who needs to be told what to do - I love not having to think about it! The workouts are always different and challenging. The trainers are the best part of Panthro!! I’m in the best shape of my life.

Started going with a Groupon deal...stayed going way after then :). Ive been working out at Panthro for about the past year and a half and while Ill never be one of those people who LOVE the gym, Panthro has come to closest to giving me that feeling. I really dig going to my semi private classes weekly :) . The workouts never feel repetitive and the trainers are absolutely stellar: equally as knowledgeable as they are encouraging. I appreciate the thought thats put into making sure that we, the patrons, get the best out of our workouts, feel valued, respected and most importantly, like family.

Panthro has changed my entire outlook on going to the gym. We give each other high fives and encouragement. We workout in small groups with trainers who watch our form, give us personal instruction, and tailor workouts to our needs. The trainers are full of positive energy and the community keeps me motivated to be a regular. After five months, I can do more with my body than ever before, even more than in my athletic youth, and its amazing!

I cannot speak highly enough about Reggie, Rosie, Olivia and the rest of the Panthro crew. I’ve been a cardio queen my entire life with little experience in strength training. The personal attention you get at Panthro is unbelievable. They really care about you, want you to succeed and do it with proper form. I love the community and will be a member for years to come!

Very welcoming and helpful. As someone who hasn’t lifted weights in about 7 years they have made me feel comfortable even on my first day. They aren’t pushy and don’t try to make you lift a lot. They understand this is a slow process for some people. The work outs get your heart rate up and aren’t boring.

Incredibly knowledgeable and committed trainers--each fostering a fun and engaging environment, motivating people on all levels toward their best individual goals.Their commitment to positivity, education, and safety makes this gym an easy decision. Workouts are challenging and unique, very rarely the same thing twice.I joined looking for a solution that had the discipline built in, self-directed workout days had never stuck. With the standard gym model, I either wouldnt go enough, wouldnt work hard enough when I did, or focused on too narrow a workout. Panthro is a great solution! I show up, receive instruction and work to the buzzer. Everything is intelligently addressed by each workout! I cant recommend it enough!!

The first thing I noticed about Panthro was how friendly and family-like the atmosphere was. I remember thinking that these people must have been working out together for years, but I quickly realized that this was simply due to the great staff and general upbeat and welcoming attitude of the other clients.After being at Panthro for well over a year, I have seen many different types of people change their lives in a positive way (including myself). No matter your level of strength, age, weight, or limitations the trainers will give you the attention you need to maximize what you get out of each and every session. The daily workouts are widely varied and challenging, which allows you to stay involved and never fall into any boring routines. The trainers are also highly focused on nutrition, which is where you can really start seeing amazing results.I truly do not have a single bad thing to say about Panthro. I feel amazing after every session – I challenged my body a great deal, but I also laughed and enjoyed myself at the same time. It really is an amazing combination this gym provides that no one else can. They have helped me in more ways than they know, and I owe them a lot of thanks. I feel happier and healthier than I’ve ever been, and I have gained some amazing friends.

Panthro is more than a gym. It is a full experience. I have been going just under one year and the results are amazing. Ive always felt I was in decent shape, but always was a scale watcher. I was more worried about the weight than I was about strength. As the coaches will attest I was not very strong at all when I showed up. The amount of weight I can lift now is unbelievable. Im still a work in progress but the results are visible. And the scale also went down and I lost a lot of inches!The people in my classes are awesome. Everyone motivates each other. While we are all competitive, we are all there to help each other get stronger.The coaches are are dedicated to you as an individual. They insure you are using proper form and not risking injury. They bring an energy to the class that makes you look forward to going to see what they have planned. They encourage and motivate (and dont let you slack when you maybe arent pushing yourself). They work with you on nutrition. Its the real deal at Panthro and by far the best gym I have ever been involved with. I actually enjoy working out now and cant wait for my next class!

I have nothing but great things to say about Panthro. The staff is incredibly friendly and supportive. The resources and information they offer are well researched. The workouts are tough, varied and give results. Quickly.There are lots of reasons for people to join a gym like Panthro. Improving ones appearance is probably highest on the list. Improving ones health is likely just as high. While both of these are important goals, theres something else worth mentioning that I got out of Panthro in just a few months, and thats strength and endurance. For example, I recently insulated my roof. This required 25 bags of insulation, at 2 ft x 3 ft and about 25 lbs each, to be taken from my car to the porch, from the porch up a flight of stairs, from there up an 8 foot ladder and through a 25 by 25 inch opening and into a sweltering attic. A year ago, this would have been day one of my project. Today, it was just the warm up. My point is, the aesthetic and health outcomes are great, but if thats not enough, dont forget about the everyday benefits of being stronger and fitter.

Ive been a member since about February of this year. Its the best decision Ive ever made. All of the trainers are great. They really take the time to come up with detailed workout plans taking into consideration the individual goals and limitations of their members. Trust me when I say you will never get bored. The workouts are challenging and constantly evolving. Since coming here Ive gotten into the best shape of my life.

Panthro is great! The small groupings feel like you have your own trainer. They stress doing things the right way and care for their clients safety and wellness. All the trainers I’ve worked out with are great. The trainer I work with the most, Rosie, is really awesome. You’re not just a number in the Panthro gym. I highly recommend them!

Really enjoy attending morning boot camp class before work M, W, F. Would encourage anyone to try it. For me its much easier then going to a gym and trying to come up with a workout on my own. The class serves as a good motivator and ensures that an expert is designing variety into the program.

Ive only been going here a couple of weeks but I can tell that Ill be a long termer. Ive had 6 semi-private sessions and theyve all been great. The exercises are unique and they change them up to keep you from getting bored. The trainers are fantastic. I have a problem with my right knee and theyve done a great job of making sure I dont hurt my knee while at the same time ensuring that I still get a good workout. Its not just the trainers though, the other members Ive been working out with have also been great. The place just has a good enthusiastic feel without being over the top with fake enthusiasm. Also theres just enough fun competition to help keep you motivated. In all of the sessions Ive been in, when they were over, it didnt feel like Id been there an hour at all. They went by fast. So, no drudgery. This place was a great find for me.

I started with Panthro in spring 2013 to get in shape for my upcoming wedding and with the help of the diet guide and coach Craig, I lost 15+ lbs and gained a ton of confidence! I moved and stopped coming but then started back up in January 2015 and it felt like I never left. Panthro isnt just a gym, its more like a family--you work out with the same people week after week and the coaches get to know your strengths and weaknesses and push you to do better each time. Ive never been a gym person but Panthro isnt your typical treadmill and elliptical gym. The classes are small (4-12 people), the coaches know your name from day one and if you have a previous injury or special condition, theyll work with you to modify exercises.I found out I was pregnant 2-3 months after starting back up with Panthro and I told my coaches before my family since I knew I wanted to continue working out with them. Ive been attending classes 2-3 times a week throughout my pregnancy and it has been a HUGE help so far. Even during my first trimester when all I wanted to do was nap after work, I pushed myself to come to the gym and felt 100% better and more energized after each session. The coaches are knowledgeable about which exercises pregnant women should and should not do and now that Im 7 1/2 months pregnant, I have to modify my exercises slightly due to my growing belly but I pretty much do what everyone else is doing. I credit my continued work at Panthro for my healthy pregnancy so far--no back pain, minimal weight gain, no preeclampsia or gestational diabetes. I love Panthro and plan on continuing until baby and then after to help me get back into shape.Thank you to coaches Rosie, Craig and Reggie!!!

Reggie and all of the coaches at Panthro are great. They have awesome workouts that are always changing to keep things fun and different. The coaches take time to help you individually and they will modify any exercise that may interfere with an injury. Rosie has so much great energy and is super motivating. I never looked forward to working out like I do now!

My experience at Panthro Fitness has been- hands down- the greatest experience Ive ever had at a fitness studio. The improvements that Ive seen in my strength and overall fitness are undeniable and even more than that, I genuinely enjoy every second of the time I spend there. The coaches and the clients at Panthro are inspiring in ways Id never think imaginable. Make no mistake- this is TRULY a judgment free zone. Even in my first days and weeks here, I never felt unwelcome or otherwise left out. These people will inspire you to take on challenges and encourage you every step of the way.Besides the unbelievably positive vibe they have going on here, they also have an amazing space and ultra-fun workouts. The expertise of the coaches at Panthro is second to none. Favorite hour of everyday. After my experience here, I would never work out anywhere else.

I am loving Panthro Fitness! I just finished one month, going religiously to the M-W-F 5:30am class in the strip with Coach Rosie. I love the hours - it gives me the flexibility to get a workout in early before going to work. 1. I never thought I could workout intensely that early but having the same group of people each day that early with you really motivates you to get going and work hard. 2. I had measurements taken after month one and there were definitely results - a tape measure cant lie.I just signed up for month 2 and cant wait to see results and continue to build the relationships that have developed with the coach and other classmates.Love it!

My Panthro family has changed my life. I have been coming here for over a year usually 3 days a week. I am a diabetic and have had my medications reduced twice. The support of the coaches and my new friends has literally changed my life for the better. I also am 57 years old, have a double knee replacement and feel better than I have my entire life. If I can make these changes anyone can. Also down three clothing sizes. Go me with my Panthro support.

I started going to the bootcamps one month ago and am already seeing great results. They pack a lot into 45 minutes so that youre working a lot of different muscles and its never the same workout. The class sizes are small so you get individual attention to make sure youre doing the exercises correctly. Would highly recommend it!

Panthro Fitness is not just a gym...its a family: a family that doesnt judge you, that supports you and that pushes you. As many others have said in their reviews, I have been to a ton of different gyms, have taken many, many classes and tried out infinite trainers and none of them are as interested in your successes as the coaches at Panthro Fitness! Im afraid to continue writing amazing things about this gym because I want to make sure theres always space for me in the 6:30am class :-). But it really is an amazing place!

I love Panthro Fitness! I cant say enough about how great they are and how they have changed my life. I have always worked out, but never saw the results I wanted. I started Panthro Fitness three years ago, and have become the strongest and the fittest Ive ever been. Im 47 years old, yet I feel like Im in the best shape of my life. Reggie, Rosie, Jess, and all of the other coaches genuinely care about their clients. The workouts are amazing and always challenging. My form has never been better due to the coaches, and because of this Im lifting heavier weights that I never thought I could. They have helped me not only with fitness, but also with my eating actually having me increase my calories, and I actually lost weight! I see such a big difference in my body with gains in muscle! And the best thing, I have so much more energy and Ive become this awesome mountain bike rider, due to becoming stronger. Panthro has become a second family to me! I also love the other clients in the bootcamps, because they are just as encouraging and supportive as the coaches.. And this is because of the overall attitude of Panthro. They care about their clients and truly want everyone to live a healthier happier lifestyle!

I am so grateful to be a part of the Panthro Fitness family (and that is exactly how it feels to be a part of this team), and I am amazed daily at the transformation that it has made in my life. As someone who has never been very athletic (the complete opposite, actually), I wasnt sure that Id be able to keep up. The greatest asset that Panthro has to offer though is its incredible coaching staff. Our coaches can evaluate you, and develop a training plan that will allow you to grow and develop so that you will ultimately exceed your goals. Perhaps today you cant do that pull up, but with their patience, dedication, and their continual commitment to helping you learn and develop, you will get there. Especially with me - they have a lot of patience!Ive never had an easy workout at Panthro, and I can honestly say that Ive never had the same workout. There is constant change and encouragement to continue to advance. Starting out, I had so little confidence in my ability to perform physically. I didnt think that I was strong - and worse, I didnt believe that I was capable of becoming strong and coordinated. I figured that the best case scenario was that Id lose a little weight. I have to say that I never would have believed that I would one day love exercising! My hour at the gym is genuinely the best part of my day. I look forward to it, and I love our coaches and the people that I am privileged enough to work out with. The encouragement and excitement that we have in our sessions helps me so much in preparing for my day, and it improves my overall mood and happiness substantially. I know that I am more confident now in everything that I do, because I truly know that I can do it - whatever the challenge is. It might sound cliched, but Panthro has taught me to believe in my self and to know that Im strong!

After being on the Panthro Fitness boot camp program for almost 90 days I finally feel I have found the gym that best suits my lifestyle. I am now seeing results in my body that I have not been able to gain from other membership gyms or from my at home work out programs that promise a better body in 90 days. I discovered Panthro via Google web search because I was feeling lost and in need of a gym that was more personable and who would have fitness coaches who could teach me how to achieve greatness. The class sizes at Panthro are no more than 10-12 students which allows coaches to assist each student and make sure they are exercising correctly, safely, and aggressively to achieve maximum results. Within my first 30 days my coach (Craig Householder) encouraged me to begin the Panthro Nutrition Plan which has improved my energy levels and work out performance tremendously. I defiantly recommend Panthro Fitness for anyone who is looking for a new positive change in their health and well-being.

Ive been going to Panthro Fitness for about 5 months and the results have been amazing. I look forward to every session, mainly because Rosie never ceases to put a smile on my face. Seriously- her attitude is contagious and she truly cares for the well being of her clients. Reggie has created such a great program that focuses on more than just a work out. Whether preparing food at home or going out, their nutrition guide is also a valuable resource. The workouts are never the same and they challenge you. Ive surpassed many of my fitness goals with this program and I can not wait to see how much farther I can go. I highly recommend Panthro to any and all ages and levels. I plan to renew my membership and stay with this place for a long time!

I have been attending boot camp classes three times a week, for a little over three months. I have no intention of stopping! The trainers are so supportive, knowledgeable, and kind. They push you to reach your fullest potential and I really feel that they care about my wellbeing. I have also made incredible progress and Im able to do things physically that I never thought were possible.In addition to helping me reach by fitness goals, Panthro has helped me make healthier choices about the foods I eat by offering courtesy nutritional counseling and support. Reggie, the owner, has developed an easy to follow meal plan that can be adapted for each persons lifestyle. I have also attended nutritional seminars held at Panthro that have connected me to other local business in my community which support my health and nutritional goals.Deciding to sign up for Panthro was the best decision I have made for myself. I recommend it to everyone who would like to become more healthy.

Panthro is the best gym I have ever attended in my life. I moved to Pittsburgh a year ago from Louisiana. My boyfriend and I did not know anything about the city or anyone. For 6 months we tried to figure things out, finally we joined Panthro. This place seriously changed our lives in more ways than one! Not only have changes been made physically, but also emotionally! I found my job because of Panthro. I now have friends and a community to engage with. The owner and trainers are the best I have ever come across, and I earned my BS in Exercise Science so I am very picky haha. If you dont try Panthro, youre missing out on one heck of a workout, and a gym community that will inspire you every single day!

Panthro Fitness was a total game changer for me. Ive been training here for just over a year, and heres whats happened: Im so much stronger and more energized, my daily stress levels have evened out tremendously, and Im eating better. I tried out a lot of gyms when I moved to Pittsburgh, and Panthro was my match because 1) the people - both the coaches and the clients! - are fantastic, motivating presences, and 2) the exercise keeps my attention. The coaches make sure Im never bored, and theyre always available to help me reach my goals.I struggled when I started, but everyone in this gym was encouraging and helped me stick it out. They assured me Id improve, and I did - more than I would have ever imagined. Whether youre trying to find your way into a healthy lifestyle, or youre maintaining one, theres a spot for you here. Come try it out!

I have been attending bootcamp for a little over six months now and the entire experience has been positive. Panthro fitness provides a very unique workout. Before joining panthro my workout was very routine and I was not seeing results. Since joining Panthro I have seen positive results and look forward to each workout because each workout is very far from routine. The couches are a very positive influence because they push you to work harder but also encourage you so you can reach that next level. I highly recommend Panthro Fitness.

Panthro Fitness has made a huge difference in my workouts. I actually ENJOY the gym!!! Im upset when I miss even one workout. The approach here is a group effort. All of the coaches arent just Class A instructors - they are Class A people who truly care about you AND your health and fitness. I love the group mentality of workouts because not only am I held more accountable but it gives you layers of encouragement that dont exist if youre on solo gym time. The ability to push yourself to your own individual limits is so beneficial because whether you are a veteran or a newbie, youre still getting the workout that suits you best. Im proud to be member of the Panthro Fitness Team and would encourage all to try it!

I started going to Panthro Fitness in 2012 and it was the best decision I could have ever made. Before panthro I would go to the gym and take some classes but it was the same routine day after day. I was making no progress. One of my friends had recently started a boot camp type class in her area and I thought why not give it a chance.The work outs are challenging, yet fun at the same time. I am a competitive person and the boot camp atmosphere is perfect for that. But dont worry if you are not competitive it works for you too, the coaches cater the workout to all types of clients! It pushes me to lift that extra weight or push myself to do more reps. All of the coaches are very knowledgeable and are always there to help in any way possible. I have an ongoing knee injury and the staff is always willing to work with me.I look forward to every workout... and i am lost if I miss a session. Plus the clients at the gym become like family. I can truly say that I have made some of my best friends at panthro.Thanks to Reggie and company for providing such a great environment!

My wife and I recently moved to Pittsburgh and quickly found a home with Reggie, Craig and Rosie at Panthro in The Strip. We are semi-private clients and have enjoyed all aspects of what Panthro has to offer from boot-camp style classes, small semi-private sessions (1-4 people) and even boxing. The classes are always interesting and challenging while still being fun. Ive done Cross Fit and Ive had trainers in the past but the focused guidance at Panthro is top notch. With a range of client types, the coaches all motivate without making one feel incapable. Many clients (myself included) are working back from or with injuries and they can tailor a plan to help you personally work through it. They are always positive, while pushing you to succeed and do your best. And as someone who struggles with diet, theyve helped me turn around my eating habits and get me back on track through their nutrition program.I would highly recommend Panthro if youre looking to get in shape, get your diet back on track and or just want to stay in shape while having fun.

After the first class I was HOOKED. Panthro Fitness has changed my life in so many ways. I have only taken the 6:30am bootcamp class, but have never once felt like I was not getting individual attention. Rosie has been my trainer and she is attentive to each persons level and makes sure to give everyone equal time. I have encountered nothing but the same from the other coaches and Reggie-the owner. They have also taken the time to work with me on meal planning which has been a huge help. if this sounds like something you are interested in-DO IT. You will not regret you decision to go to Panthro.

Its really impossible to describe all the ways in which Panthro makes my life better, but Ill try:A little over a year ago I was feeling unhealthy, lethargic, and depressed. I was getting sick at least once a month, it was a challenge to drag myself out of bed, and I was feeling as though maybe I was just doomed to be an overweight, out of shape person who awaited some sort of unhealthy meal or drinks every night to make me feel better about it for a few minutes. It was a real low point...Im sharing this because I know there are plenty of other people in the same place I was and struggling. Finding a gym that provides all the things Panthro does has truly changed my life. Ive had many swings with my weight and with various exercise routines and fads over the years, and Ive settled on three main things that I need in a gym for it to be sustainable as part of my lifestyle rather than a means to an end:1) group training led by qualified professionals who take an interest in their clients (they also put up with my clowning around....)2) a community of fellow members who are supportive while challenging each other, and enjoy having fun, and3) a holistic approach to health and fitness that promotes exercises, routines and diet approach that are realistic for a working professional to integrate into their daily life.You see, I had found a place like this last August in my old hometown, before I moved to Pittsburgh in January, and I was really worried about making the change. Crisis averted. Panthro is all those things and much more.Today I am a totally different, happier person, and my hour at Panthro is the most important part of each day. I love the workouts, I love the people, and I love being at Panthro, even after stressful or exhausting days. Ive lost just over 60 lbs in the last year, and Im setting performance goals now, not just weight or measurement.Perhaps the best thing I can say is that 100% of the time I feel better when I walk out of Panthro than when I walked in....and really how many places or groups of people can you say that about?If youre nervous that youre too out of shape or worried youll be judged by others - dont be. Theyll work with you, challenge you in new ways constantly, and the entire Panthro family will be rooting for you to succeed.

I have been with Panthro Fitness for almost 4 years now and have loved everything about the experience. Before joining Panthro I had no workout routine or had a healthy eating diet. I joined the program as a support system not expecting to care or last in the program. Once I joined Panthro I was introduced to a healthier lifestyle.I have been in both semi-private and co-ed boot camp classes and equally enjoy both. The coaches and staff are exceptional with working with the clients to meet their goals ,whether it is a weight loss goal or just need to maintain a healthier lifestyle.As a mother of 4 I felt I had no time to squeeze in a work out but with the flexibility the staff provides it has made it possible for me to come in a few times a week.Not only have I worked with great coaches I have also met a lot of classmates that make coming to class not only fun but also found a support system for myself.I highly recommend Panthro to anyone that is looking to make a change for a healthier lifestyle.

I had always been active growing up but then life got in the way - you know how it is working full time, taking care of a disabled child, aging parents, a house, etc, as much as I tried exercise seemed to move further down the priority list. I made it a point to walk my dog everyday but I realized that wasnt enough.I decided to check out Panthro Fitness on the recommendation of a friend. I was a little intimidated at first not knowing what to expect. I had torn my calf muscle a few months prior (not by exercising) and was leery about starting an exercise program. I met with Reggie who assured me that his staff would be able to work with me and adapt exercises as needed. I decided to give it a shot and signed up for a 30 day trial.Coach Craig and Coach Rosie, worked with me during my trial period in semi-private lessons. My goal was to participate in the boot camp classes. The program was intense and exhilarating at the same time. My initial thoughts were you want me to do what? Are you kidding me? I cant do that! Both Coaches were extremely supportive and patient. As my confidence grew I turned cant into Ill give it a try to I got this!Then something unexpected happened - my body began to crave this type of exercise - now I know a body can crave chocolate but exercise? Really? It was the weirdest sensation and I loved it. After my 30 day trial it was a no brainer for me - I was hooked. I had an outlet that provided me with more energy and helped me to deal with my every day stressors in a positive way. I decided to make the commitment to myself and signed up. Panthro Fitness is now a part of my life just like everything else and I head there 3 days a week. I participate in boot camp twice a week and boxing once a week.Reggie and his staff are dedicated to health and wellness and it shows. They offer advice on nutrition and meal planning, classes are always different - no two are the same which keeps me motivated and wondering what do they have planned for me today?Panthro Fitness is so much more than a gym - it truly is a place that focuses on spirit, mind and body. If you are looking for a positive outlet from every day stressors, this is the place, these are the people who will help you on your journey.

A little about myself and why I chose Panthro as my fitness family:Im a 23 year old, native Pittsburgher and Im not overweight by any means. I run a great business in the South Hills and Im lucky to have it. However, I have found myself swamped and I paid no mind to taking care of myself/diet. I reached out to my clients and asked if they could point me in the direction of a great gym where I could find a trainer to motivate, encourage and help me reach my goals of being active and healthy. Plenty of my clients sent me here.. and for a good reason.Thats just what I found. I met Reggie and immediately felt like I was in the right place. He helped me pick a plan that worked for me and that wasnt overwhelming. For me, the worst part of working out is finding the time and biting off more than I can chew. Usually when I do that I find myself burnt out and I give up.I do personal training sessions with Rosie, my favorite trainer ever, twice a week. For me, twice a week might be all I can do. But Rosie pushes me enough in those two days that can suffice if I cant make it to my local gym. Speaking of local, Panthro is about an hour commute for me but its well worth the drive. #commitmentIve been at Panthro for almost two months now (the longest relationship Ive ever had) and even though I want to die sometimes I wont ever regret getting up and going. I never imagined I would be as strong as I am in this amount of time. Its been the best decision Ive made this year. Now if I could only stop eating pizza.. to be determined.Thanks Panthro Family. I love you

I was very hesitant at first to start working out at Panthro because I was terribly out of shape due to a previous injury and having several surgeries. The coaches made me feel right at home and really know how to push you and be very supportive at the same time. Not to mention the other classmates are all so welcoming and encouraging it really makes the classes fun and fly by.I lost 14 pounds in 6 weeks and several inches off my waist, for a total of 30 pounds since joining by simply attending classes and following the nutrition plan that they provide. I never felt hungry while following the plan, which is whole foods and protein supplements.In my option the boxing classes are the very best workout you can get in the city of Pittsburgh! I would recommend Panthro to anyone that is intersted in getting in shape or staying in shape and wants to have fun while doing it.

When I first moved to Pittsburgh from the UK, I spent a good amount of time googling for boot camps as I knew I needed to take account for my fitness, after some initial procrastination I fired off an email to Panthro. Coach Reggie responded double time, got me in and enrolled all in the same week and the rest is history.Panthro is more than just a gym, its a community, everyone is out for each other to support and help each other progress. All the coaches are absolutely on point and push you to a comfortable limit and help you to achieve the goals you want.Despite being a group workout, you very much feel like you have 1:1 coaching. I would not have imagined travelling for work and getting excited when a hotel gym has a bar for dead lifts! I cant recommend Panthro enough to anyone who wants to get out, meet people, kick start a new lifestyle and have some real fun along the way.Plus if working out really isnt your thing, just rock up on a Saturday for Reggies class for an education in classic hip hop...

I first walked into Panthro Fitness in 2014 with a Groupon. I was out of shape, super unhealthy and completely terrified to step in a gym. I had always considered myself unathletic. Panthro coaches held up a mirror, forced me to look into it, and see my real strength. Ive gained so much confidence and lost the fear of failure. This is seriously a GIFT that has enabled me to accomplish so many things both in the gym and outside of Panthro that I would have never imagined even attempting a few years ago. Whether youre a seasoned athlete looking for a challenge or a total newb (like me!) wanting supportive coaching, Panthro is where its at. I cant speak highly enough of the owner and coaches. So much effort is put into planning unique bootcamps and cultivating genuine relationships with the clients. Great gym, AMAZING people!!

Soon after joining forces with the Panthro Fitness team, I met a very special coach named Rosie Fisher. Rosie is one of four amazing coaches at Panthro Fitness. In the 15 years as a physical therapist I have never seen coaches as passionate and knowlegeable about fitness and their clients as Rosie, Jessica Pauls, Tracy Uziel, and Reggie Dulaney. This team is simply amazing! I am fortunate to be in one of Rosies boot camp classes and she does not let me fail with my fitness and is always there for me. Rosie is constantly watching my form to make sure that I am performing all of her exercises correctly and using the appropriate weights. I always feel supported while training and even when I am home. I used to work out like everyone else, 45 minutes on the treadmill followed by some strengthening exercises at my own pace. You know back and biceps, shoulders and triceps etc..without real results. Never again! I had been wasting time for years. It is amazing at how much you are missing by not being in one of Panthro Fitnesses elite training classes. The fact that all of the coaches have extensive training in fitness, nutrition, and lifestyle and they maximize on your individual fitness levels is something that I have never seen before. I constantly recommend all of my patients join Panthro Fitness during or after formal physical therapy. Rosie and the team come highly recommended and are the by far the best fitness team in Pittsburgh.

What did I do before bootcamp at Panthro Fitness? Just like many other women, I was spending endless hours running and seeing little results. All of the coaches at Panthro have changed my life - they bring so much knowledge, creativity, motivation and excitement into working out. They make it fun! I have been attending bootcamp 3 days a week for 9 months and havent done the same workout twice. Physically - the results that you get from Panthros bootcamp are second to none! They get to know you and your lifestyle so that they can create a nutrition plan that works for you. As you progress through the program, your nutrition program is adjusted along with your fitness level. Small habits are changed little by little and before you know it - you have a new lifestyle! Panthros program is not a diet or a fitness fad - they truly give you the tools you need to live the life you have always wanted to live!
