Cafe Physique

Seeing as how I'm not a huge fan of the gym Cafe Physique is a great alternative. I was paired up with Christina and I cannot say enough good things about her or Cafe Physique. Being able to work out at home is so convenient and I was able to work around my schedule. Not only have I been able to lose weight that was lingering for months but I'm actually starting to see muscles in my arms...something I've never seen before! I would definitely recommend this program to anyone! more

Beginning my personal training at Cafe Physique is the best thing I have ever done for myself. I had become lazy and was no longer working out so I decided to try them out and it was just what I needed to get me back into a workout routine. I have seen great results and my trainer Ramona Gray is very motivating and gives me great tips on how to continue to meet my goals. I actually look forward to my sessions. I?ve also had two sessions with the owner Amber O?Neal and she was the same way. I also like the fact that Cafe Physique offers a variety of services; in-home training, nutrition services, boot camp, yoga and the list goes on. I definitely recommend Cafe Physique to anyone who is trying to get fit or stay fit. more

This is just my third week and I feel better already! Mona and I work out three times a week but it's much more than a workout for me. I feel that she has helped me to build momentum toward healthier living. I exercise more and eat better. I've had the energy to do things I've ""been planning"" to do for a long time. I like working out with Mona. Each session is different and if I feel awkward doing an exercise, Mona is knowledgeable and flexible enough to give me a different exercise to still get a good workout. From the start, my experience with Cafe Physique has been really good. I feel that I made the right choice. Pros: flexible, professional more

While having a good deal of experience with physical fitness and training (like they typical aged athlete- ran track, chased boys, played basketball, tennis, even hockey all through highschool- the boy chasing, much to parental chagrin, was entertainment fitness), although you wouldn't've been able to tell upon site, I've got to admit I'm extremely impressed with Cafe Physique. Ms. Amber O'Neal is the professional's professional, dedicated to helping clients reach and maintain their fitness goals. I am not only impressed with the fact that she really listens and demonstrates compassion for her clients goals, but she clearly and effectively disseminates that information to the trainers on staff and the staff that work with her are of stellar quality. I have been working with two staff trainers: Ramona Gray (Strength Training and Conditioning) and Brooke Serson (Yoga-lates) and honestly, the experience and the benefits have been practically indescribable! Don't think- do, don't just dream- make it happen. You can, you really can accomplish it and Cafe Physique can definitely help you! Pros: Small, intimate work out facility, quiet rooms Cons: Parking can be challenging when large groups are in attendance more

I worked with one of Cafe' Physique's registered dietitians and lost 25 lbs in 3 months! The diet consisted of foods that I enjoyed eating at a calorie level that's right for me. I started losing weight and inches in the first week and once I added in the personal training, I lost even more weight. Cafe' Physique is a great alternative to going to the gym. Their trainers are really knowledgable and the registered dietitian I worked with had a Master's degree in nutrition. You can't get that at a gym! more

Cafe Physique's Boot Camp has been the greatest thing for 2008. I met Amber at an event after being struck by her stature. She then told me about her company and I knew for sure that it would be out of my budget .... but when I learned it was affordable I decided to give it a try. It is the BEST!!! I have watched my body change over the last two months. Chris (our instructor) is constantly challenging my body by switching up the routine. I am loosing inches like crazy, I have already gone down a size in my clothes and have more energy than ever. I would highly recommend this program to anyone who wants to see a change in their body and energy level! Pros: Viewing the sunset, breathing fresh air, and being one with the environment. Cons: An occasional allergy reaction... more

I have been working out with Amber since February 2008. She pushes me to do things I never thought I could do! Each workout is tougher than the one before it (and boy do I complain during the sessions!), but I know they are making a difference in my overall health. Before signing up with Cafe Physique, I could barely walk up a flight of stairs without losing my breath. Lazy was my middle name! But now, I feel better than I have in years! I have more endurance, strength and flexibility. I'm beginning to see signs of a waist again. Imagine that...me with a waist after gaining more than 60 pounds after having my children. Amber and Cafe Physique are the best! more

I am a mom of 2 small children and never have time for myself. The boot camp gives me the opportunity to begin my day doing something for me. I'm motivated to get up early and workout. Chris does an excellent job with creativity in the workout. He pushes us to give 100% in each workout. No session is the same. What I enjoy most is I don't even have to think about it. I do what Chris says, and at the end of the session I'm so proud of myself. Amber, the owner, is amazing!! Her story and the success she has accomplished with the company is unbelievable. I've committed to 12 weeks and I can't wait to see the results. more

I came across Cafe Physique when looking for a trainer to get more from my personal workouts After stopping by to chat with Amber (owner), I was highly impressed with the concept and felt it was the answer to my needs. Amber guaranteed that she has great success in matching up clients and trainers...she did not disappoint. I'm training with Kevin Steele and I could not ask for a better or more motivating trainer. He is highly intune to my needs, challenges my body to do out of the box workouts and makes the most of each session we have together. FANTASTIC! It's a great escape to have my training sessions in the comfortable studio but the in-home training sessions they offer is a great service as well. Cafe Physique really does offer a one stop shop for being a healthier version of yourself....training, boot camps, pilates, yoga, nutrional assistence. To top it off, all these services are offered at prices that I think are as good if not better than you can find elsewhere in Atlanta! Pros: Personalized service, cost, location, in home training, variety of training options, professional staff Cons: None! more

I saw the sign for the bootcamp several weeks ago and wanted to try it out. I have always worked out regularly but I travel a lot for work so haven't been able to keep a regular workout routine lately. The boot camp is an easy way to fit a great workout into my schedule! My husband and I both go and absolutely love it! The workouts are always different and always challenging! Chris and Amber are great motivators - we are definitely fans of CP and of the boot camp!!! more

I was lured in by a friend who started with bootcamp (Getfitgirl!). I knew that I needed motivation to step up my exercise a notch and Amber has been the right person for this. She knows just when to push me that step further and does a good job of ignoring my comments of weakness! I really like being able to exercise with a friend because it's an additional source of motivation. Amber was great when several sessions in we asked if I could join. She has also been flexible when we needed to change the times. Amber does a fantastic job of mixing up the exercises each session. We don't get bored! And, it's such a great location for me! This has been the perfect Spring ""kick"" that I needed. Pros: Location, personal attention more

I have been searching for an exercise alternative to a huge, chain gym (LA Fitness, Bally?s) for a while now. I don?t enjoy working out in front of a large group of people and I knew if I joined a big gym I would get stuck in a contract and wouldn?t never feel comfortable going to the gym to workout. I have never been a workout person; I felt like I never had the time and never felt like I was getting the results I wanted. All that has changed! I came across Cafe Physique one day, made and appointment to see what it was all about, and I?ve been a client ever since!!! Now I look forward to going into their studio each week and push myself to workout most other days of the week. Amber (the owner) is my trainer and she?s so great! From the beginning, she made me feel totally comfortable and confident in my abilities (even my terrible balance and lack of coordination). The workouts are tough, invigorating, challenging, rewarding, and different every week. Working one-on-one, I know the workout I?m about to do is tailored to my goals and my physical abilities. She?s even got me contemplating joining their boot camp! If you would have told me 4 months ago that I would voluntarily sign up to work out outside at 6am, I would have laughed in your face. But now, it?s something I want to do!!! I would highly recommend Cafe Physique to any busy professional/mom/average joe who is looking for an alternative to a big name gym. It?s a great workout with a professional, courteous, fun staff that wants to help you achieve your fitness goals. Pros: Professional staff, convenient location, fun, tough workout that is consistently different more

I started going to Cafe Physique about 1 month ago and have really enjoyed my experience so far. I've attended their boot camp in Freedom Park and also bought a 25 session personal training package. I can't tell you how much I've gotten out of it! I learning that I'm a lot tougher than I thought and that I CAN push myself harder and get results. I've already seen a difference in the amount of toning I have! I train with Amber (the owner) and have never done the same workout twice. She's creative and motiviating and has shown me that I can do things I never thought possible. About 3 weeks after I joined one of my friends said she wanted to start working out with me there as well (she had come to a few of the boot camp sessions with me and had met Amber). She was awesome about adjusting our rates appropriately to give me the ""buddy session"" rate. I HIGHLY HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend this professional, service oriented, inspiring company to anyone! Pros: Personalized Attention, Creativity of Workouts more

Three months ago I didn't believe it was possible for me to ever get in great shape again (and lose those pesky 15 lbs). My problem wasn't that I didn't know what I needed to do, I was just too lazy to actually work at it consistently. Also, working out has always BORED me, given all the other things I could be doing. Cafe Physique (I train with Amber) has changed that in a remarkable way. I've improved every measure of my health, my weight, BMI, cardio endurance, strength, and every physical measurement. I truly feel like a new person. Amber has the ability to make working out interesting and fun. Every workout is different and challenging. I go to the studio and actually get excited every time I go - something I thought was impossible. One of the things that attracted me is that they have a nutritionist who advises on diet and eating habits. If you have have failed with gym memberships, home gym equipment, or diet books, and really want results this time, I can't recommend this service highly enough. Pros: Very professional, friendly, personal service, clean, accomodating to your schedule. more

I never believed that I could actually enjoy working out, but now I look forward to my sessions. Amber is a great motivator and really cares about your results-- she really knows her stuff too! I am definitely seeing a difference in my body. The biggest plus: the prices are completely reasonable and I am not in the gym listening to heavy metal under fluorescent lights! Pros: individual attention, value, picking your own workout music!! Cons: you're kidding, right? more

Cafe Physique and its founder Amber O'Neal changed my life. Our company recently took on CP as a client so I began to regularly strength train for the first time in approx. 15 years. Before I started working w. Cafe Physique, I got my cardio from shopping and doing 12 oz. curls. Terribly pathetic, I know. I have an extremely busy work schedule and I have to attend events regularly in the evening, so I had a very difficult time fitting exercise into my schedule. I also can't stand going to the gym b/c I am beyond germaphobic and allergic to florescent lights and annoying people in spandex - so really had no desire to make an effort. I also never found a trainer that took the time to understand my lifestyle and develop a realistic program for me. I am simply beyond happy with my results since working out with Cafe Physique so far. I had no idea how much a difference it would make having a trainer show up at my loft twice a week - saving me tons of time compared to if I had to drive back and forth to a gym. I have no excuse now and I feel great! I love the one-on-one attention and I often invite a friend to work out with me. I am handling stress much better and feel stronger and more balanced. I am actually addicted to working out now (well, on some days). Each training session is different, we laugh a lot and I am constantly challenged. I have also learned how to train properly on my own and incorporate small changes into my life that make me healthier. Most importantly, they developed an exercise program based on my goals, needs and lifestyle - so I am able to stick to it. I live in the Inman Park area (where Cafe Physique just opened a new studio) and I am actually contemplating taking a Pilates class - something I would have never done before. Who knew!?! I could not be more grateful and 100% recommend Cafe Physique and all it has to offer. Perfect for the busy professional, gym haters, moms, couples, friends and small groups. \r more

The trainers are very professional. I like the environment and felt very comfortable working out with the trainer. I always have a great workout!!! My trainer pushes me just enough, which is rare to find. My trainer knows exactly what I need. It feels like we're all one big happy family there. I don't think there's any other place like it. I've been going there for several months now and I wouldn't go anywhere else. more

This a place that is really excited about your health! What a perfect place to go, especially with the New Year's resolutions many of us have in mind. The total package of health and wellness is so important. So, if you're looking for a life changing program, Cafe Physique is where you want to go. The quick fixes and crash diets aren't what Cafe Physique represents which isn't good for the body anyway. \r \r Please come in and see how your life can be change! Your goals will surely be achieved with the staff at Cafe Physique. \r \r Hope to see you there! Pros: The staff is soo nice! This is better than the larger gyms like Bally's and LA Fitness. more

I have been so impressed with Cafe Physique! The new studio is a great environment for working out and the staff is so good at making you feel like you're their only client. They are so personable and great at designing a plan that fits your lifestyle. I've been working with them for a little over two months and I've already lost 10 pounds. I truly have recommended this to everyone I know that wants to take control of their life and their appearance. I ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT!!! Pros: staff and location more

Cafe Physique is an excellent option for older adults who want \r one-on-one attention and personalization while working out. I used the \r enjoy the large gym atmosphere, but now I value the fact that my \r trainer comes to me because I have more health issues now than I did \r when I was younger. I've made a lot of progress in terms of strength \r and weight loss since I started working with them, and I'm always \r impressed with their level of professionalism. My wife meets with one \r of the yoga instructors once a week, and she really loves it too. If \r you're an older adult looking for an excellent workout, Cafe Physique \r is the right choice.\r \r more
