Xercise Lab

This is less about the Xercise Lab as it is about the fact that I’m now getting real-​estate related spam emails from the owner Jenny Rowe, who I suppose is both into fitness/​real estate.
I went a few times and it was OK, but NOTHING is worth getting garbage emails that have NOTHING to do with Xercise Lab and everything to do with the owner’s real estate business. I see that Xercise Lab is now closed, but if Rowe opens anything else fitness related in the Bay Area I will steer clear!

I LOVE Xercise Lab! I’ve taken Burn/​Build classes with Jenny, Breann, and Angela and every single class has been amazing. I love that no work out equipment is needed for this class and that every minute is being used for a full body work out. It reminds me a bit of Insanity but with more variety. It’s great cardio but I also feel my muscles building. I love to do yoga, spin, running, pilates reformers classes, barre… yet this is probably one of the most efficient work outs that I’ve tried. The only thing is that I always want to stretch more afterwards, but you can stay in the studio and do that on your own after class.
I always bring a water bottle and a towel, as the towel can be helpful for some moves that requires us to be on our forearms.
The classes are also so much fun as the instructors and other clients are super friendly, and the music is also fun and motivating. The Palo Alto studio is also pristine and a beautiful space.
Thank you so much Jenny, Breanne, and Angela!

I went to one of their classes, «build» through class pass. From the name I imagined the class would incorporate weights, but it ended up being more of a kickboxing/​dance class, which isn’t really my style of workout. The instructors and facilities are super awesome though, really welcoming and clean respectively. I think this would be a great place for someone who likes the dance/​body weight type of workout!

My friend and I have been taking classes at the Xercise Lab for about 2 months and it’s been an awesome experience! The Burn/​Build and Base/​Restore classes are intense and well choreographed. The studio is super clean and smells more like a spa than a gym. What I like most are the instructors! They are professional, accommodating and motivating. Angela, Yifan and Breann, You Rock!

This place is SO much fun! The instructors use great music you won’t hear anyone else and they keep the movements simple but intense, and put together into fun patterns to keep your brain busy. AMAZING workout. Atmosphere here is really friendly too. Instructors and other participants very welcoming.

Having been a member for over two years, I can safely say I won’t be going back to a regular gym anytime soon. XerciseLab is essentially a unique spin on P09x/​Insanity style interval training but in a group class setting. Studio classes are 40 or 60 minutes and are choreographed to music. The workouts are intense but folks are encouraged to modify the exercises to suit their fitness level as needed. Members of all ages and fitness types attend classes. The XerciseLab team has created an environment that is welcoming and encouraging but also challenging.
XerciseLab is a great place for those wanting to try interval training but in a group class setting.

Xercise Lab is a gem. This little studio packs a punch and delivers results. The team there cares so much about the members and all the instructors are top notch. They don’t compromise on quality. If you are looking for a great, safe, fun, high intensity workout with great instructors — this is the place. They also offer high intensity kids fitness — which is pretty much impossible to find. I love this studio, the classes and the instructors. Take a free class, you won’t be sorry.

I took H2O Burn — very disappointing
1) the staff wasn’t very friendly (this was my first class I was expecting ummm maybe a greeting or a welcome)
2) it would be nice to have a moment to learn technique to make sure I didn’t injury myself but no I was told I needed to be in deep enough water to float (not sure which was more important floating or learning the technique)
I love working out, and I swim several times a week (so i can float) I really wanted this workout (no pun intended).
They’re on to something, but need to work on customer service and technique.

I’ve been going to Xercise Lab classes for almost a month now. I have a bum ankle (no impact allowed) and the H2O classes are amazing. The location is great, the water is warm and the work out is wonderful. This morning, I did my first land class (Burn at 0600 — OMG) and I really loved it. I thought my ankle would be a problem but the instructor demonstrated modifications for me even during class, which was so nice. All the instructors I’ve met are professional, kind, welcoming and good at their craft. I’m so happy to have found this place!

I normally do not feel compelled to write reviews about gyms/​workout places but I started going to Xercise Lab this week and absolutely loved it! The classes are amazing and the staff just incredible. I felt welcome and was not judged for my shape. Within my second workout, my instructor knew my name and I felt at home!
It’s been a week so far and I am already seeing change in my body! If you are looking for an intimate fast pace class to really get you in shape, this is it!

yesterday, i went to my 1^st class at the palo alto lab and spent a good 15 minutes registering myself to be in their internal system and for the class. their technology seems a bit complex, hence the 15 minutes. unfortunately, i came only a few minutes before the class started, not knowing that the registration process would take so long, so after completing all of the online forms, i only ended up getting about 35 minutes of a class (30 min minus the cooldown and stretching portion). wish i knew about this ahead of time, then i’d have been able to workout the full 45 minutes.
if you’re a first timer, it is highly recommended that you go 15 minutes before the start of class to complete online registration, etc, otherwise you will miss part of the class.
the actual class was quite good, but i felt a bit cramped in the studio as i felt the space was not quite large enough for the class size (approx 10 – 12 people). i had to ask the girl next to me if she could move over a bit as i was running out of space to do the reps! still a very hard workout that left my muscles burning after!
note they have cubby holes inside the studio for you to keep your personal belongings, and also two restrooms inside the studio. there is also a water cooler, but you need to bring your own water bottle. they keep the studio around 68 F, which is perfect for an indoor workout as i never feel overheated.
