Seriously Strong Training in St. Pete is excellent. The trainers are knowledgeable, approachable, and genuinely invested in helping you reach your goals.

Kris provided personalized programs with a focus on safety, proper form and forming a well-rounded diet.

The gym is clean, well-equipped, and has a positive, motivating atmosphere. I’ve seen significant improvements in my strength, nutrition, and health since joining.

Highly recommend it to anyone serious about their fitness whether your a gym rat, ex-athlete or just looking to start your fitness journey.

I cannot say enough positive things about SST and my trainer Avery. I haven't lifted weights in a decade but the entire process from the initial consultation, to goal setting, to my visits in the gym, made me feel comfortable, supported and motivated. They create an amazing atmosphere that feels like a real community as well as being incredibly knowledgeable about their craft. I have seen amazing progress in very little time and it is well worth the investment. My trainer Avery has been incredibly supportive, communicative and results driven and takes time to really listen to your goals and feedback. I highly recommend Seriously Strong!

Honestly, I can't recommend this place enough!

From the moment I called to inquire about training here, I felt welcomed and supported in my fitness journey. I came in without much skill or experience, and my trainer Jesse has helped me learn and accomplish so much in a very short amount of time. His knowledge and expertise are evident in every session, and he's always there to motivate me to achieve my goals and keep me moving forward.

The atmosphere of the gym is fantastic – it's clean, well-equipped, and has a real sense of community. Even the trainers I don't work with have gone out of their way to learn my name, say hi each day when I come in, and make me feel at home. And because of the personalized nature of the training they offer, the gym is never crowded or intimidating, and you aren't wasting time trying to figure out what to do next or waiting for equipment to become available.

Not only have I seen amazing results since starting my training here, I've also gained more confidence and a newfound drive to get healthier. If you're looking for a top-notch personal training experience with one-on-one attention & support, this is the place.

If you’re looking for a welcoming environment, very clean space and tailored experience, Seriously Strong Training is your spot. I’ve been working out at SST for the past six months and it’s been a game-changer—I feel stronger, I’m more mobile, and I’m in less pain from sitting long hours at work. While I’ve worked with personal trainers before, SST has been a whole different experience. All SST trainers are genuinely invested in you. They design a program to holistically—and realistically—achieve your specific goals, which they adjust as you meet (or don’t meet) milestones on your fitness journey. They’re with you every step of the way to challenge you, cheer you on and hold you accountable.

And my trainer, Dave Albaranes, is truly top notch. To every session, Dave brings his expertise in exercise physiology and experience as a strength coach for athletes, which I appreciate. He creates fun, dynamic warm-ups and workouts. He offers thoughtful suggestions to help me create and maintain healthy habits and stay motivated. He explains in easy-to-understand language technical aspects of weight training and how the body responds. And he’s always encouraging, with a great sense of humor. All of that helps make my very early morning sessions at SST one of the highlights of every week.

Needless to say, I highly recommend Dave and SST! If you’re second-guessing whether to check this place out, just stop that and GO. SST is a very warm community, too, so if you’re new to weight training, no need to fret…you’ll feel very welcomed and supported!

Life changing experience! I've been working out at Seriously Strong for almost three years now. I'm in my mid 30s and work in IT, so I'm usually sitting down for long hours and not very active during the day. These past couple of years at the gym, never I've felt and looked better in my life. Recently, I hit a personal goal of deadlifting over 400lbs.

Can't say enough about the staff and location, professional, personal, clean, & welcoming environment. No pressure & stress, but they definitely work hard to keep you accountable. High recommend.

I would highly recommend this place. I was super reluctant to start personal training again due to some precious bad experiences else where, but the moment I walked in the door for my first consult I felt at home. All of the staff up too and including the owner are super friendly, and make you feel super comfortable. Kris is hands down the best trainer I’ve ever worked with. He is patient and knowledgeable and sets realistic targets and goals. He’s super encouraging and takes the time to teach. He adjust plans as needed and is always pushing you to perfect your techniques. I couldn’t be happier and so glad I found seriously strong training. In 6 months I’ve already hit most of my 1 year goals and I’m stoked to see what my results look like in 6 more months. Book your appointment today, trust me you won’t regret it!

I highly recommend Jesse Hicks and the team at SST St. Pete! I've been training with Jesse for a little over a year now, and I am as strong today at 53 as I have ever been. During our time together, Jesse has consistently delivered customized training content based on my capabilities, goals, and time contraints. The monthly check-ins are great for accountability and updating my training plan. Working one on one in structured, hourlong sessions, with a tailored plan AND real-time feedback has enabled me to consistently pursue my fitness goals within a travel-heavy work schedule. For those not already expert in strength-training and fitness knowledge, I highly recommend SST!
