I LOVE this gym! I started going here in November of 2023 and I am still going 5 days a week! Every workout is different and that makes it go fast. The trainers are top notch and I've gained a lot of muscle and lost fat since I've been going here. The community is amazing and the owners are the best! I love supporting locally owned businesses! I ALWAYS feel like I've been challenged when I leave here every morning. I highly recommend this gym!

As a fitness newbie, I found the coaching at BFT Highlands Ranch incredibly refreshing. Shout-out to all the dedicated coaches, and personal gratitude to Coach CJ, Coach Jacob, and Coach Krystal! Their focus on proper form and personalized guidance is invaluable. I especially appreciate that coaches offer alternative exercises for lower impact when needed, making the program accessible and enjoyable. Highly recommend for anyone, especially beginners. I encourage trying a few different classes under various coaches to find what works best for you.

At the start, I loved this place. The workouts were challenging, the coaches were knowledgeable and motivating, and the community was supportive. At $170 for unlimited classes, it felt like a reasonable deal for what I was getting.

However, within less than a year, everything changed and not for the better. All the original coaches (including multiple general managers) I enjoyed working with have quit, which is a huge red flag about how poorly this place is managed. Many new coaches came in, and it was hard to even want to form any kind of relationship when the last ones quit one right after the other so quickly.

To make matters worse, the prices have doubled with no added value. It turns out that someone in Australia writes all the workout plans, and they just recycle the same routines over and over. There’s no variety or innovation, which makes it feel stale quickly.

It’s clear management is more interested in squeezing money out of members than actually delivering a quality fitness experience. I’ve canceled my membership and won’t be recommending this place to anyone. If you’re looking for consistency, a supportive environment, or value for your money, I’d suggest looking elsewhere.

Update: This place just sold out from under old management. Maybe they can turn it around.

I love this gym!! The programming is a great way to build muscle. I started back in September 2023. A superb shout out to all the coaches at BFT! Jacob and Jamie, hands down amazing. CJ the head coach, who is the strongman. Has helped guide me in lifting correctly. Same with his girlfriend, Krystal, the strongman woman classic as well.

BFT Highlands Ranch has become my new home and community for all things fitness for the new year. Their friendly, helpful environment coupled with some of the most supportive and motivated patrons, have helped push me into a comfort zone that is already transforming me back to the strong and capable body I want. CJ does a fantastic job of leading the charge with all of his fellow trainers, keeping us all happy, healthy, and ready for the next (always new) workout.

I absolutely love everything about BFT!! The program is definitely very different from other gym's I have experienced. I have also met the best coaches at BFT. They are very knowledgeable, professional and love helping us with our individual development and goals. If you’re looking for a gym who cares about your needs, this is it. I love it.

I started going to BFT in September 2023 when I was five months postpartum, and it has been an incredible journey ever since! The progress I’ve made in the last 16 months has been truly rewarding. I’ve gained noticeable strength and muscle, lost body fat, and feel so much more confident in my body. The workouts are challenging but always leave me feeling accomplished.

What sets BFT apart is the amazing sense of community. The supportive atmosphere and encouragement from both the trainers and fellow members have made it a place I genuinely look forward to showing up to.

A special shoutout to Coach CJ, who has been amazing at keeping me in check with my form and offering helpful cues to improve my lifts. His attention to detail and dedication to helping everyone reach their potential has made a big difference in my progress.

I’m also super excited about the changes coming with new ownership (shoutout to Nancy and Tracey!). It’s clear there’s a strong vision for the future of this gym, and I can’t wait to see how it evolves.

If you’re looking for a gym that will challenge you, help you grow, and offer a supportive community, BFT is the place to be!
