Allen Branch's Fitness One Training Systems

5 seconds. Typically true violent attacks begin and end within 5 seconds. Do you have the intent and tools at hand to address a truly violent act against you or the ones you care about? Most I speak with say they would avoid the violence via talking, running or " just shoot " the attacker. Not bad options except in most truly violent encounters you will likely end up injured or dead. I came to Fitness One as a former Marine Corp Officer, Emergency Room Physician Assistant with many years training in reality based martial arts. I have been training with Jon, Josh and Allen at Fitness One for two plus years in Israeli Krav Maga training and know the principles taught are solid and will help anyone regardless of age, size, fitness or gender. As an individual training in reality based martial arts for a number of years I recommend Fitness One highly. If you have the committed desire to learn, Fitness One has the tools to teach you how to survive a violent attack. Ron Mikat more

I joined Fitness One six months ago. At 56, I have become strong and fit without injury. If there is something I can't do yet, the trainers help me modify and they along with fellow classmates are always encouraging. If you're ready to work hard and have fun give Fitness One a try. You'll be glad you did! more

Amazing gym more

You are the greatest. Susan and I work out 4 times a week. We have been coming to Fitness One for a little over a year. Before joining I could not get Susan out of the house 4 times a week much less to workout 4 times a week. Now, if for some reason I cannot go, she finds a way to go without me. You all have had a major effect on our lives, but Olinda has had the ability to motivate Susan and kept her excited to continue. Fitness One is a comfortable place to workout. It is fun and non-competitive. Thanks to all of you for making our lives better, Buddy and Susan Weiss more

I've been at Fitness One since Dec 31, 2013. I must say that I've never been more determined, focused, encouraged and inspired for my own fitness goals since joining Fitness One. The staff is incredible, the members are incredible and the results are real. I could never see myself at another box gym. Love Fitness One! more

Fitness One is not a gym, it’s a family. I started about a month ago and I can’t believe all the positive encouragement I receive on a daily basis. That alone is worth more than anything. Size doesn't matter. At Fitness One, it’s not a competition, it’s a ministry! more

Allen Branch helped me rehab both my shoulder and knees. He has been there every step of the way making sure I didn't overdo anything but at the same time continue to improve daily !!! His knowledge and expertise have been invaluable on this journey. I have been going to Fitness One for over 6 years now and appreciate the dedication Allen and his staff have shown me. more

I have been going to Fitness One almost a year. When I started I could hardly get out of bed and walk in the morning. Now I am going 4 to 5 days a week and feel great. I tried another gym with rows of equipment and it was very impersonal and boring. Fitness One is the complete opposite. If you want to have fun and get a great workout in, then you have got to try Fitness One. more

I've been a member of fitness one for a few months now and can honestly say I've never been to a gym like this before- I love it. Everyone is so friendly and encouraging. The classes are awesome, they have great instructors! I do personal training with Jennifer and love it- she is great. FitnessOne is more than a gym- they encourage lifestyle change and work really hard to help you meet your goals. There've even created this Facebook page to help us encourage each other and for those who choose to post their food diaries it helps keep accountable. I can't imagine myself ever joining another gym after this. If you haven't tried it- you're missing out! more

When someone asks which gym I go to and I say Fitness one, I always have to explain what Fitness One is cause it is so much more than a gym. No endless rows of machines or mindless weights...this is fitness with direction and real people. These classes ROCK! No matter what level you come in at, they will get you on track and encourage you. The trainers care and it shows. more

Fitness one has given me the fire to change my life. Having so many people supporting you on a daily basis sure does help. Thank you to the branch torture chamber and all my fitness family!! more

If you have tried every other gym, every beachbody(P90x, Insanity, etc) workout, and still don't have the body of your dreams....then join our family at FitnessOne. It is a class based exercise led by one of the fantastic certified trainers. You have never had so much fun working so hard. Come see what you can actually accomplish when your part of a family for fitness. more

Allen and his staff are TOP NOTCH!! I have went from an 8x to a 5x since last June 2013 and I am not done yet. Being an overweight person (535lbs when I started) it is hard enough for me to just step into a gym for fear of people judging and pointing fingers. At Fitness One I have never felt "uncomfortable" there. Not only is Allen and his staff helpful with working at my level, the members there are very friendly and eager to support and encourragement to reach my goals. This place is unique in that you don't just get a membership to a room full of equipment or a few classes here and there. You get a wealth of knowledge and experience plus all of the tools and support you need to achieve your goals. If you are looking for a place to change your life Fitness One of Kernersville is the place to do it. more

By far the best gym EVER! Allen helped me loose the rest of my post baby weight I was still carrying 3 years after my 2nd daughter's birth. Less then a year later I became pregnant with my 3rd child, but thankfully I was in good shape from maintaining a 3-4 day a week work out schedule and eating a balanced diet. I worked out through 33 weeks of pregancy, gained a healthy amount of weight, and was back in my jeans at 1 week postpartum! I am anxious to get back to the great classes and high energy trainers in order to tone my body back up before summer. Try a class... You will not be disappointed!! more

Been working out with Allen Branch's Fitness One Training Systems for almost 2 years. I've worked with personal trainers and do their men's kickboxing and MMA program. It's been a great experience. It's changed the shape of my body, lost quite a bit of weight, and gained muscle. They're a great outfit. more

I have been going to Allen Branch's Fitness One Training Systems for three years. My initial goal was to be healthy and fit. I did not have weight loss goals necessarily, but since starting, I have definitely lost weight. I didn't take advantage of their weight loss coaching, but if I had asked, they would have been more than willing to go provide that for me. They offer both personal training and classes. I personally like taking the classes. The schedule of classes works out great with my schedule. I like the earlier class at 4pm because it's easier to participate in, since there aren't as many people. I go at least three times a week. The instructors are wonderful. They are always there to help their students. They show us how to do things the right way. If we need modifications due to any disabilities or body constraints, they show us how to adjust. The entire staff is friendly and helpful. This is unlike any other gym I have been to before. If you are committed, they will get you to where you want to be in terms of your health and fitness. They will help you get in shape. All you need to do is commit, show up, and do what they tell you! I tell everyone this: Even though I am not a gym rat, I cannot stay away from Allen Branch's Fitness One! more

It's all personalized and you feel like Fitness One is your home. You go in there and you know the people and they talk to you like they care about whether or not what you're doing is working. more

I started at fitness one six weeks ago after bring flat on my back for three months after extensive surgery. In six weeks I have gained all my strength back and then some. I now am back to going four days a week and look forward to going more. Allen, Olinda, Kevin and all the trainers are great. They have all made sure I am safe but progressing. I look forward to going to the gym daily. more

I love the variety of the classes. I never get bored like I did at our old gym. I've lost weight, feel great, and look forward to coming each week! more

My experience with Fitness One has been overwhelmingly positive. My friend encouraged me to try a class when I told her I wanted to improve my cardio fitness. I have been a runner for years, done several races and 3 half-marathons. Well after 2 classes, I realized that though my legs were in good shape, the rest of my body could be better. I love the energy the trainers have, the atmosphere of the place, and the wonderful members who grunt next to you every class. No matter what fitness level you are at, you will always get a challenging workout, as you are always pushing faster, harder, or increasing your weights. The classes are ever changing, and never have been dull or repetitive. I see new people every class try out, and keep coming back. I don't have to sell it to anyone, just try a class, it will speak for itself! I am in better shape now than I was 10 years ago. more
