I joined Profectus Health and Fitness because I wanted to live a healthier life. I am 60 years old and was having issues sleeping at night. The nutritional guidance that I received has helped me with this issue. I have always been a junk food eater. Now I have learned that by eating 3 healthy balanced meals per day it helps me feel full and not snack as much as I used to. I now reach for a healthier snack if I must. I also love drinking water now. I previously would drink iced tea or soda. I really enjoy the workouts.

The group workouts are a lot of fun. I have noticed that I am a lot stronger, and I can keep up with people half my age. I would highly recommend Profectus Health and Fitness. I am addicted!!

I reached out to Cristina because I was having such a hard time managing my workouts and meals. I would sit behind my desk all day and not feel motivated to workout after a day of work. After I began working out with her in her classes, I actually found myself looking forward to our classes. Which is really big for me to say because I used to dread doing anything physical.

Cristina notices her clients' potential and makes us realize it too. I'm truly amazed at the progress in my physical and mental health since I started. I honestly can say to anyone wanting to join, that it is probably one of the best decisions you will make in your journey.

Thank you for believing me and for pushing me to be a better version of myself every day!

My son and I have been working out with Cristina for almost three years. We both look forward to our workouts and my son doesn't miss one! I've seen him gain confidence in himself and he's taken on an interest to possibly coach in the future! For myself, personally, I'm now not afraid of food, carbs specifically! I've noticed that I'm sleeping better and my energy levels are higher. I highly recommend Cristina, she listens and modifies according to our way of life and needs! She's amazing!

Grateful to Cristina at Profectus Health & Fitness, for providing rewarding personal training sessions and group sessions to build on physical strength while learning proper technique in lifting weights. Much appreciate Cristina checking in on my progress to exceed my nutrition and strength goals. She is passionate about health and fitness and it shows as she genuinely cares about our success. Together, we continue to build upon strengthening my core, upper and lower body strength. Cristina has a plethora of workouts which makes each training session a fun experience. Previously, I was on a keto diet and now I am encouraged to eat carbs! A new mindset. The results that I am seeing are amazing in my confidence, my clothes fit better, an am lifting heavier weights. I'm committed to three sessions a week. I welcome others to join Profectus for the best version of you in health and fitness.

I started with Profectus after experiencing a near death illness causing me to lose almost all of my physical strength. After several failed attempts to join a gym and having difficulty finding a trainer willing to help, I stumbled across Profectus. Without hesitation they took my special case on and I am happy to share that with the guidance I’ve received within months I was able to gain back my strength and now only getting stronger and healthier. Profectus has been the best decision I have ever made.

Coach Cristina at Profectus Health & Fitness is amazing! I feel energized, stronger, and more flexible. The structure of the workouts are great and makes it easy for me to make it a part of my busy routine. I love the goals, feedback, nutritional information, and accountability Coach Cristina communicates with me. It's been fun working out with others in a small group setting during the weekdays. I 100% recommend!

Gloria G

I really enjoyed the group fitness training. Profectus Coach Cristina offers different levels of fitness for all ages. Fitness training is good for my heart. Thank you Cristina.

Jennifer V

I had an awesome experience! Cristina is professional and very knowledgeable. I felt comfortable with the group workout and had lots of fun! I can't wait to get back into it!

Celia G

If you are looking for an exciting trainer with a great attitude, then this person is for you. I really enjoyed my training with Profectus and the Booty Bootcamp was so much fun. Price is right and the group or one-on-one is really fun.

Iratzu A

Love the family vibe at Profectus! Small groups at every session, good music and fun atmosphere! Coach strives to give a great workout every single time and safely pushes to the limit. Looking forward to my next session!

Wendy K

This is a very welcoming small gym in a residential neighborhood run by fitness instructor/ personal trainer Cristina. She makes fun and challenging workouts that change daily and is able to adapt them to your goals and fitness levels. I highly recommend her!

Olivia N

I've been working with Coach Cristina for a few weeks now and I can't recommend her enough! I already feel stronger, more confident and more motivated to reach my goals. The group classes are super fun and I finally feel excited to hit the gym!

Shawnda C

Profectus is the best gym! I am so happy I found this hidden gem. I am in the best shape I have ever been in. I feel good and have made new friends along the way. Cristina makes a warm and comfortable environment for her clients. She keeps us motivated and we always have fun. A huge plus that we can bring our kids if we need to. I love the red light therapy benefits she offers as well!

Veronica R

Let me start by saying that Coach Cristina is so welcoming! She listened to all my concerns and goals. The group is awesome! You will immediately feel comfortable. You get a great environment with lots of motivation and a good sweat with the workouts!

Lila L

Coach Cristina is the best! She is so welcoming and really prioritizes safety and form. The small group training is such a steal for the price you're paying, and if no one happens to show up to that particular class, you basically get some personal training for the price of a small class! Perfect for anyone looking for a small gym, community feel.

Nyla M

Not your average gym! Profectus feels more like a fun gathering of friends dedicated to self-care and transformation, thanks to Cristina's amazing atmosphere. I'm not usually one to hit the gym, but I'm seeing real results while having a blast! Plus, the brand-new location has a private, spa-like vice that's simply impressive. Highly recommend!

Lorraine R

Cristina has been working with me for three months and it has been nothing but positive results. She ahs adapted my routines specifically to fit my needs. Wonderful private gym with a maximum of four clients at a time ensuring individual attention. Cristina is kind, caring and focused on health. Highly recommend working with her.

Heather M

The best small group/ semi-private training in La Mesa. I always look forward to my workout sessions at Profectus and am so happy I came across this gem. Cristina is knowledgeable, kind and truly cares about your health and well being. Joining Profectus has helped me gain my strength, confidence and the will to push myself with results I can already feel. I highly recommend!

Jennifer K

Cristina is an amazing personal trainer! Her enthusiasm and passion for coaching make each session a highlight of my day. I'm already feeling stronger and more confident, and her support makes all the difference. I love the small class seizes for individual attention. Highly recommend her!

Kristen E

I am very happy that I responded to an online ad for Profectus Health & Fitness about 6 weeks ago. My former workout program fell apart at the beginning of covid and I had been inactive since then. I contacted Cristina and decided to give Profectus a try. The workout space is well equipped an the workouts are planned to meet the abilities of all participants. I love the flexibility of scheduling. Already, I am noticing improvements in my endurance, balance, and strength. It feels great to be working out again in my new fitness "home".

Lorraine

Best money I've spent on myself in a long time. Small classes in a private home studio directed by Coach Cristina who willingly adapts my workouts to fit my medical concerns. Haven't felt this healthy in years!

Karen M.

Cristina is fantastic! She creates a workout that is suited to my needs and abilities. Always keeping aware of any issues I may be experiencing, old or new, And the Red Light therapy is wonderful!

Ana A.

I'm 68 years old, and training with Cristina has truly been a gift. From day one, she made me feel capable, empowered, and completely supported. Cristina has a rare ability to adapt her training style to any age and fitness level-she meets you where you are, without judgement, and helps you build from there with patience and encouragement. Her discipline is inspiring, her attitude is always uplifting, and she brings an energy that motivates me every time we meet. She listens, she pays attention to how my body responds, and she knows exactly how to adjust workouts to keep them both safe and effective. The training locations is always well maintained, clean, and inviting, just like Cristina herself: professional, focused, and genuinely caring. Thanks to her, I feel stronger, more mobile and more confident in my body that I have in years. Cristina is proof that age is just a number, and I couldn't recommend her more highly for anyone-especially those who think it might be "too late" to start. It's never too late when you have the right trainer.

It's been 25 years since I last set foot in a gym, so I was a little nervous about walking into Profectus-but I'm so glad I did! From the start, the environment felt welcoming and comfortable, especially for someone easing back into fitness. Cristina was incredibly patient and encouraging with this newbie and made me feel fight at home. She explained all the movements clearly and took the time to correct my form when needed, which I really appreciated. I signed up for the small group classes (just 4 people max), and that format felt perfect-personal, supportive, and not overwhelming. I already can't wait to go back! Highly recommend Profectus for anyone looking for a positive, non-intimidating space to get stronger- no matter where you're starting from.

Coach Cristina is fantastic! I thoroughly enjoy my training sessions with her. She is extremely knowledgeable, and gives great guidance and support. It’s wonderful working with a trainer that supports and understands women as we move thru our mature years !! I highly recommend giving Coach Cristina a try. Your body and mind will thank you.

Marcie S.

I don't know why I didn't start years ago. The workouts are doable and I feel so accomplished. I'm looking forward to continuing my health journey and gaining muscle without going to an intimidating gym.

Angie H.

Move better, feel better, live better! One of the best investments I have ever made. 6 months into it and working out 3x a week - that says something considering I initially did not like exercising and have NEVER stepped foot in a gym! Cristina’s coaching method eased me into strength training. Being in my mid-50s with sciatic nerve compression, Cristina catered to my beginning limitations and helped me build confidence to get physically stronger. With continued strength training, red light therapy and sauna that Cristina offers ( and prayer plus my home back pillow heated massager) I no longer have sciatic nerve compression! God is good and I am forever grateful He led me to Profectus! By the way,
I found Cristina through chatgpt searching “women PT La Mesa SD” - there were many options… I chose Profectus because it fit my criteria of location, focusing but not limited to older women, and one on one coaching. Ladies - I highly recommend Profectus. Get your body moving and feel empowered as you keep living life. Your mind, body and soul will thank you!

Kim C.

Coach Cristina is amazing and really listens to what you are looking for. Would really recommend giving her a try.

Kierah L.

I’m so happy I found Profectus and Coach Cristina! Cristina genuinely takes the time to get to know you and your goals and is so professional from the beginning consultation to the tailored workouts she creates for each session. Her gym is so welcoming - you can tell she puts a lot of care into the space and I love that she has a sauna, red light therapy and compression boots for clients to use. I enjoy my sessions so much. They feel sustainable and rewarding each time. It’s truly a hidden gem in a beautiful area of San Diego. I’m excited to work with Cristina for many years to come! I’m already feeling so much better in my body both mentally and physically. I highly recommend her !

Erika O.

I’ve had such a great experience at Profectus Health & Fitness! I had a baby about a year and a half ago and honestly feel more stronger now than ever. Cristina is an amazing coach who pushes me while making sure I’m moving safely and listening to my body. She’s always supportive and motivating. Since training at Profectus Health & Fitness, my fitness goals feel more achievable and within reach.

Cristina is awesome, she is very welcoming and makes every workout comfortable and positive. The gym is clean, the environment is great, and it keeps me motivated to keep showing up and getting stronger. Highly recommend! 💪

Kristie C.

I hired Cristina teach my 16 year old daughter how to properly lift weights in a safe and effective way. She was easy to communicate with, organized, and ran a great session for my daughter and her friend! Her gym was clean, well-equipped, and loved her recovery room. My daughter said that she learned a lot of little techniques to help her in the gym. Thanks, Cristina!

Cheryl

My 16 year-old daughter is recovering from ACL reconstruction surgery and we have learned proper strength training is a must not only to recover but to prevent future injuries.
Cristina was able to provide my daughter with one on one Assistance to make sure she was lifting and training in a safe proper way while also building her confidence. I recommend this type of training or workshop for any active teen and young athletes. Thanks Cristina
