On Site At Fitness 19
I went to visit the Club Fitness 19 in Walnut Creek, Ca and they are what they say on their website, which is that they are an affordable gym that won’t break the bank.
Meet John Williams
I had an appointment to meet with someone to discuss the gym so that I could post about them. The person who I met with was John Williams, a former professional basketball player in Germany (played for the Mustangs). John is a Sales Manager for Fitness 19 in Walnut Creek, CA. As an aside, currently John is working on getting his MBA from Saint Mary’s University in Moraga. John’s is in charge of keeping members happy so he was clearly the right guy to talk to at the gym.
The gym is not very big but has all the up to date cardio equipment and a daycare is also available on site. The memberships costs are one of the lowest that I have ever seen – comparable to the YMCA. There is a cleaning crew that comes in the evenings to keep gym nice and clean for its members along with a staff for full service. The gym that I visited also had showers and lockers available for members. This particular gym is affiliated with the Silver Sneaker fitness program.

The Skinny
The gym also offers insurance for the elderly. After visiting the gym, I would have to give them a good rating overall – a rating of 9 out of 10 as the only thing missing was a sauna, basketball and tennis courts. The gym was simply a gym, a place where you get fit and go home.
