PERSONAL TRAINING on Mid-Market Street
At Custom Fit, we believe fitness is personal
TRAINING DESIGNED
WITH YOU IN MIND
Custom Fit is on Market Street, just west of Octavia, at the western end of the Market corridor. For anyone living in the Mid-Market towers or working in the offices along Market, it is a few minutes down the same street — by streetcar, Metro, or on foot. Training here begins before the first workout, with measurement. We scan your body composition, test your cardiovascular ceiling, and build your program around what the data shows, not what a generic plan assumes.

Looking for personal training near Upper Market, Duboce Triangle, Castro, or Market & Octavia?
Custom Fit offers private, data-driven personal training at 1844 Market Street, just west of Octavia and next to the SF LGBT Center. Our coaches combine one-on-one strength training, DEXA body composition scans, VO₂ max testing, nutrition guidance, and recovery tools so your program is built around measurable progress — not guesswork.
Personal Training Goals We Support
For clients focused on fat loss, muscle gain, or improving body composition, Custom Fit combines personal training with measurable data and practical nutrition support. Instead of relying only on scale weight, we use tools like DEXA body composition scans to monitor changes in body fat, lean mass, and visceral fat. Your coach can adjust your training based on real progress, while our nutrition coaching helps you create sustainable habits outside the gym. This is ideal for Upper Market clients who want a smarter, more complete approach to weight loss and body recomposition.
You do not need to be “in shape” before starting personal training at Custom Fit. Many of our Upper Market clients begin with little strength training experience, limited gym confidence, or a long break from regular exercise. Our coaches teach the fundamentals, including movement mechanics, proper form, breathing, pacing, and how to train safely. The environment is private, supportive, and built around coaching rather than intimidation. If you are looking for beginner personal training near Upper Market, Castro, or Duboce Triangle, we help you build confidence one session at a time.
San Francisco runners and cyclists need more than mileage. Strength training can help improve power, durability, posture, and resilience while reducing the risk of overuse injuries. At Custom Fit Upper Market, we work with endurance athletes who want to build stronger legs, improve core stability, and support better mechanics. Clients can also pair training with VO₂ Max + RMR testing to better understand aerobic fitness, training zones, and metabolic data. Whether you are training for a race, riding through the city, or trying to feel stronger on hills, we can build a program that supports your performance.
If you feel stiff, limited, or worried about getting hurt, personal training can help you move better while building strength. Our coaches focus on proper form, joint control, mobility, stability, and progressive loading so your body can handle more over time. This is especially helpful for clients dealing with desk posture, past injuries, recurring tightness, or discomfort during workouts. We can also integrate recovery services to support your overall routine. For Upper Market clients who want to train hard but stay healthy, our approach balances strength, mobility, and long-term consistency.
Partner personal training is a great option for couples, friends, coworkers, or family members who want expert coaching with shared accountability. At Custom Fit Upper Market, your coach can structure sessions so both people train together while still adjusting exercises, weights, and progressions to each person’s level. This makes partner training more personalized than a group class while still being fun, motivating, and cost-effective. If you live or work near Upper Market, Castro, Duboce Triangle, or Hayes Valley, partner training can be an efficient way to stay consistent together.
Longevity-focused training is about building the strength, muscle, cardiovascular fitness, mobility, and metabolic health you need for the long run. At Custom Fit, we combine personal training with tools like DEXA scans, VO₂ Max + RMR testing, nutrition coaching, and recovery services to create a more complete picture of your health and performance. This approach is ideal for clients who want to age well, maintain muscle, improve energy, reduce health risks, and make fitness a consistent part of life near Upper Market.
