Where to workout in Mountain View?
Someone recently emailed me to ask where they should go to start working out. They’re new to Mountain View and wondered if I had any ideas. Turns out that I do have a few ideas and I thought it would be nice to make a list of them.
- Custom Fitness: One of my favorite places.
- YMCA: On Grant road next to our new hospital.
- Fit from the Core: A pilates studio near Costco.
- Flex-It: On Evelyn near the downtown train station.
- Jazzercise: At several locations in Mountain View.
- Jacki’s Aerobic Classes: Right next to the library.
- 24 Hour Fitness and Super Sport: Near Walmart.
- Curves: At Evelyn and Hope Streets.
- Overtime Fitness: This place has everything!
- Gold’s Gym: On Shoreline near the movie theater.
- Evolution Trainers: Off Pear Ave.
- West Coast World Martial Arts: On Rengstorff.
- Shawsu: A nice neighborhood gym in Los Altos.
And since we’re lucky enough to live in this incredible climate where our average temperature is between 40° and 80°, we have no excuse for not getting outside and doing a bit of walking or jogging. It’s almost always pretty comfortable in Mountain View. And most of the time it’s totally fabulous!
I just heard about Jumpstart Medicine. They were started by a Stanford trained emergency physician. They teach, motivate, and supervise clients who want to live a healthier life. They have some really nice recipes on their website, like Grilled Green Tomatoes. It just seemed appropriate to mention them if I’m writing about working out and getting in shape.
Please feel free to add comments to this story and let others know where you go to exercise or what you do to stay in shape. Thank you and let’s all have a happy and healthy New Year.



Also Twister’s Rock Climbing Gym.
Wow! So many locations. I didn’t realize this. You’re right, we don’t have any excuses.
