I've been going to Benny now for about 4 months. I am extremely pleased with my results so far. The gym is small but that's exactly the atmosphere I was looking for. At times, there have been 2-3 training sessions going simultaneously, but you don't feel crowded at all. It's the perfect space. All the trainers are friendly and very knowledgeable. I've also learned a lot about nutrition which has definitely had a positive effect on my overall health and wellness. I highly recommend going to Ultima Fitness for personal training - they have such a great team.

I absolutely love this little gym! Even though it’s cozy and can feel a bit cramped, it’s packed with all the essential equipment you need. The atmosphere is fantastic, and what really sets it apart is the professional clientele. It’s an exclusive environment where busy professionals can focus on their fitness without the crowds. The personalized programs, meal planning, and nutrition guidance are top-notch, and the staff is incredibly supportive and motivating. Plus, the flexible hours and fun holiday parties make it a great community to be part of. Highly recommend it!

My husband and I have been training at Ultima Fitness with Benny and Sanam and we couldn’t be happier. I’ve struggled with my fitness and recovered from ankle surgery, while my husband dealt with lower back pain — and they both have supported us every step of the way with care, patience, and deep knowledge. They design workouts that are safe, effective, and perfectly tailored to our needs. What’s even more impressive is that every trainer at Ultima fitness shows the same level of empathy and encouragement, creating such a positive, welcoming environment. We’ve both gained strength, confidence, and a healthier mindset. Truly the best decision we’ve made for our fitness and well-being!

Response from the owner:Thank you both for trusting us with your fitness goals! We appreciate it very much 🙏

Ultima Fitness in Plano has been perfect for us as a couple training together . The trainers personalize every session to fit both our goals and always keep things fun and challenging. We feel fully supported, and the private atmosphere motivates us to stay consistent. We’ve both seen great results and highly recommend training here together.

It is wonderful to find a fitness place that you look forward to go -- knowing that you will be pushed to your limits and beyond. The trainers are focused on health as much as workout. Years of experience show its value as step by step, they move you toward much better workout regiment and healthy routines to make a real difference in your overall health. The progress is remarkable-- you can literally see it as your resting heart rate drops, your blood work improves, and your stamina reaches levels that surprise even you. The relief of chronic pain is another great benefit, though, like the law of conservation of energy, it just transforms into muscle burn 🙂 I also appreciate their simple business model and flexibility, no monthly subscription fees and no hidden fees. I highly recommend Ultimate Fitness.

I’ve been training with Benny for over 10 years, and Ultima Fitness is truly one of my favorite places to be. The gym is super clean, well-equipped, and has a very friendly atmosphere. Benny is incredibly knowledgeable, and his team is professional and always supportive. I go 3–4 times a week, and I genuinely enjoy every workout here. I wouldn’t trade this place for anything else highly recommend!

Response from the owner:Thank you bijan! We appreciate you and so happy for the opportunity 🙏

No matter your health focus, Ultima Fitness is right for you. My focus has been on longevity. Benny has not only increased my strength but has also worked through chronic issues in my back and shoulders. I see the benefits in my posture, my sleep and my overall wellbeing. Benny has also made positive changes in my diet, supplements and my daily routines. I highly recommend the team at Ultima Fitness if you are wanting to change your health for the better.

Response from the owner:Thank you Paul! It is definitely a team work! Wouldn’t be able to get the results without your participation! 🙏

We recently moved into the Plano area, and were looking for a smaller gym setting, as opposed to what we were used to. While I had never worked with a trainer, even though I have spent plenty of time going to the gym, I just had never been impressed with how typical trainers worked with their clients. We decided to give Ultima Fitness a try since we were living nearby and we are so happy we did. Benny and his team are friendly, knowledgeable, and just fun to be around. They make working out something I actually look forward to. Benny isn’t the typical personal trainer; he genuinely cares about you, your health and your goals. His expertise doesn’t end with fitness; his knowledge of nutrition and supplements is extensive, and he uses that to help you reach your goals. I’ve been going to Ultima and training with Benny for over a year now, and I don’t think I have done the same workout twice! My strength has improved significantly, and the workout changing every time keeps the workout fun and challenging. Even now, after moving 30 minutes away, we still make the drive because it is 100% worth it. If you are like me and are getting tired of a big gym environment and looking for something smaller & wanting to take your fitness to the next level, I couldn’t recommend Ultima Fitness enough.

Response from the owner:Thank you Nicole! You are too kind. I’m so happy we found you. We are not number one, our clients are. I appreciate you driving from Rockwall to plano for training .

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ After almost 10 years of not working out, I joined Ultima Fitness and it completely changed my life! The trainers not only helped me reach my fitness goals, but also taught me how important stretching and nutrition are for overall health. I’ve lost over 50 pounds and feel amazing! I love when people I haven’t seen in a while tell me how great and healthy I look. The trainers at Ultima Fitness make you feel like family—they truly care about your health and make working out fun. No matter where you’re starting from, if you want a better quality of life, there’s no better place than Ultima Fitness! 💪

Response from the owner:We appreciate it! So happy you joined us and we were able to help you achieve your goal. Thank you

I’m not sure where to start because everything is top-notch at Ultima! The trainers are very knowledgeable and are good at working on one’s goals with a variety of exercises, which keeps things fresh and is more effective than doing the same thing over and over. The gym itself has everything you need and is never over crowded. Most importantly, everyone there, from the owner to the trainers to the gym-goers, are lovely people. I look forward to every work out.

Response from the owner:Thank you very much! We are happy to be a part of your fitness and health journey.

My PCP referred me to Ultima as he is also a client. I am 62 and the primary reason I met and teamed up with Benny is to prepare for an active retirement. I had done weight "training" many times, but never had a certified trainer show me and I also needed guidance on how to combine that with a nutrition plan This is where Benny separates himself from the rest especially when it comes to nutrition. I find the semi-privacy aspect is very appealing and high on my list for many reasons. The theme at Ultima is there is mix of people and fitness goals and they all have one thing in common which is to get to work. There is a great vibe here which is great, but the main objective of everyone in the room is results at whatever pace you want. I have been going there for almost two months and down 15 pounds and that is great progress and a byproduct of the training but the huge results are around clothing where I am about to hit a waist line that I have not been at for many years. I work with both Benny and Sheida (amazing). You will learn a ton just talking to Benny. He's done all the work already.

Response from the owner:Thank you Kurt We appreciate you choosing us for your fitness journey We are very passionate about what we do! Thank you

Ultima Fitness is a great place to work out. You really get results in terms of strength and conditioning and diet advice. I needed to get in shape for some aggressive snow skiing and the training there really paid off, as my recent skiing at age 67 went very well. No leg burn or gasping for air, versus when I went skiing 2 years ago when I was sadly out of shape. So kudos to Benny Pajouh and Sheida Rashidi, my trainers. As a doctor, I have referred several of my patients there too!

Response from the owner:Thank you for choosing Ultima Fitness for your fitness goals! Glad we can be a part of your fitness journey

Best trainers in Plano. Training plans oriented towards your fitness and health goals. You will get nutritional advice as well. I am 59 and been going here for 15yrs. My health is excellent and I am stronger than I was at 40. You wont lose strength after 50 if you are going here.

Response from the owner:"Feel 10 years younger" - that's what we like to hear! Thank you for taking the time to leave us a review, Doug. We appreciate you!

We highly recommend Ultima Fitness if you are looking for a great place to improve overall health and fitness. The trainers are experienced professionals who will guide and challenge you not only with strength training but with stretching and nutrition as well. They genuinely care about their clients overall health. My husband and I have been working out with Benny, the owner, for a couple of months now and are so happy we found this gym! We are healthier and stronger because of our 2x a week "Benny beatings" as we like to call them. 🙂

Response from the owner:Thank you for choosing us for your fitness goals 🙏

Benny knows the best….and yes, he does The tagline of my review is the newspaper headline from the 1999 edition of Dallas Daily. I could not think of any better tagline. Here is my story – a month back I was looking for gyms as I wanted to take control of my health. I googled and called several, all said the same thing – sign up and become member then we will get you introduced to a personal trainer for discussion. Some didn’t even bother to return the calls despite saying leave your phone number and we will call back. Benny is different. He had missed my call earlier in the day; however, he called me back at 9.00 pm. Introduced himself and spoke to me for 45 minutes! I could feel his personal touch and commitment to helping me achieve my health goals. He took time to explain the training process and repeat his commitment. Benny invited me to his gym, again spoke to me for almost 30 minutes explaining things. He also said he will make modification to my diet and will be on constant lookout for me; and oh boy he has been looking out since – very diligently. He reviews by daily diet chart, advises on what to have, what not to have. He is always available and happy to answer the questions/doubts. Now let us talk about training – training with Benny is very enjoying. He has a great team of trainers – Pedro, Sheida and others. Each of the trainers takes personal interest in training you and constantly encourages and pushes you to improve and perform better. Training with Benny and the team is always one-on-one, no group training like most other gyms. I genuinely look forward to every training day and love training with this team. I would like to conclude this review with what Benny always says – “weight training is my life and your dedication motivates me further to work towards your health goals”

Response from the owner:Thank you for the opportunity to let us work with you! We strive to be the best we can be!

“I am 49 years old and I have been working out at Ultima Fitness in Plano for the last 7 years. When I first started, my cholesterol was high, my blood pressure was high and I couldn’t walk up a flight of stairs without being winded. With training and diet advice I am in the best shape of my life. I am stronger than I have ever been and my stamina is excellent. I do not have any health issues at all now. I feel like I am 25 again.

The club is not just a place to work out. You become part of the family. Everyone knows each other and it becomes a place you enjoy going to talk to friends and get the best workout in Texas. I even have my kids working out there with me. They are strong, fit and always do the best in school fitness tests.”

“I first started going to Ultima Fitness in May 2012. After 40 years of virtually no exercise I knew that I needed to do something.

About a month after starting to exercise it was time for my regular annual physical. That’s when I was diagnosed with Type 2 diabetes. The doctor was very supportive when we discussed the diet and exercise approach to control diabetes.

I consulted with Benny. He gave me nutrition tips, advice, and guidance. I also followed a rather intense cardio and weight training regimen. When I returned to my doctor for my follow up visit I was 35 pounds lighter and my A1C numbers had improved to the acceptable range. My doctor was impressed with the progress and scheduled more follow up visits to confirm that I stayed on track. After a few months, my blood work numbers all came back in the normal range. All of this was without the use of any medication.

“Being a member at Ultimate Fitness has benefited me well beyond my expectations! The one-on-one personal training is a step above the regular big gyms. Most gyms personal training tends to let the customer dictate the workout. Ultimate Fitness personal trainers control the workout to get the maximum out of you. Nothing makes me feel better than to have my trainer push me to the limits of my workout, while keeping it fun.

Benny and his staff have a variety of training knowledge and skill-sets, so if you really want excellent personal training and don’t want to get lost in a big impersonal gym, I suggest you try Ultimate Fitness.”

“I have been a client at the Ultimate Fitness gym for over 8 years now and ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT!!!! Ultimate Fitness provides a private, small and intimate atmosphere for working out that I enjoy. Big gyms, with a lot of people and equipment, are overwhelming for me. Ultimate Fitness is the perfect size. With just a few trainers and a few clients at one time, you know that you are priority to them. It has that family style feel where everyone knows each other … it feels like home the minute you walk through the door.

The trainers are AMAZING!!! They all have their own unique way of training which makes for an awesome variety of workouts. They train to get the best out of you each and every session. Whenever I need to work on a particular set of muscles (like getting ready for swimsuit season) they know exactly what to do to get me in shape.

They are EXCELLENT with setting me up on a healthy nutrition plan and following through with me to make sure I’m on track and not slacking.

“For several years my husband had been experiencing pain in his back and hip. Since it was hereditary, we went to doctors for pain management. The pain never went away. Then we happened upon Ultima Fitness one day and decided to stop in to inquire about their personal training. Everything changed for us! Thanks to Benny’s personalized training program, my husband no longer needs any type of medication for back and hip pain and actually has more strength than ever before. The customized workouts are a total package specifically designed to strengthen your body for the long term with information on the importance and need for good nutrition. Today, keeping fit is more important than ever – if you desire an independent life style.” ~ Johnnie and Gloria
