Max Fitness Academy will trick you into thinking they have designed a program that will work, when in fact everybody that works there is a fraud. They get you to sign up by purchasing a $99 body fit map and three personal training sessions, after they "review" you (which is bullshit because you cant review anybody by having them to jumping jacks) they tell you that your in better shape than you are actually in, that you dont need the other sessions because you have been assessed already.
They do this after they so they can try to sign you up and get you locked into a contract, when signing up they tell you thats its necessary to follow their diet plan and to purchase their supplements (which are all over priced on purpose). They then will have you schedule appointments with their nutrition specialist, who has NO degree or ANY creditability!! The nutritionist will make sure you are taking more than enough protein so you stay heavy and puffy, therefore getting you to sign up for more training sessions.
DO NOT JOIN MAX FITNESS ACADEMY! They will over charge you for training sessions with people who are NOT CERTIFIED, Force you into buying their overpriced products that will no doubt MAKE YOU FATTER,
They say they guarantee results or they will keep training you for free, that is UNTRUE the second your "graduation date" arrives and if you are not at your "goal" weight they will drop you (this is a fact), make up excuses why they have to drop you and cant honor their guarantee and try to force you into paying more.
DO NOT JOIN THIS HORRIBLE EXCUSE for PERSONAL TRAINING
not only do the people working there have no idea about personal fitness (the owners are both overweight), they have no credentials whatsoever to be training!!!
They will make you fat
I joined spend $7, 000 dollars and ended up 7lbs heavier when I was finished, Since I stooped working out there and following their BULL**** advice (which is all Max Fitness Academy gives) I have lost 10 lbs
The second my goal date arrived I was dropped by them and told it was my fault even though I followed everything they said

I Completely Disagree With Veronica

It's a shame that you had a negative experience at Max Fitness. I have been a client for nearly a year and have nothing but good things to say about my experience. It has never been suggested to me by anyone at Max Fitness that I purchase any of their products. I highly recommend Max Fitness to anyone looking to workout in a clean environment with friendly employees that are willing to adapt to your schedule and needs. I've never been asked to sign a contract and because my work schedule is constantly changing they have been nothing but gracious when I've had to cancel last minute even waiving any cancelation fees. Please don't rely on one negative comment when considering Max Fitness as I and many others are very happy there.

What Veronica is saying is absolutely false. She purchased 160 sessions at our facility. We guarantee our system of free training when goals are not acheived only if you follow the program. She did not follow the program. She was drinking on the weekends halfway through her program and that alone cancelled the guarantee because drinking is not part of her program. We stuck to our word and finished the 160 session package. We even gave her a month of free training. She did not get results as she expected because of what she did to herself. When she talks about overpriced supplements she should look up what Max Muscle supplements cost on the web. We sell it cheaper then Max Muscle does on the web.
I don't know what she is talking about when she saids we got her fatter? She weighed less when she left here then when she started here. I don't know why she feels slated in anyway. She purchased products and used them and we trained her over 180 sessions. She paid $6,200 for 180 sessions with a personal trainer, that is less than $34 a session, if anyone should feel slated or ripped off it is definately us.
