SBM Fitness is a by-appointment private facility on El Camino Real, led by Yuhui Chen. We work one-on-one and in small groups with families who want strength, balance, and longevity — never the noise of a public gym.
SBM Fitness was founded by Yuhui Chen with a quiet, deliberate goal — to create a small private facility where Menlo Park families could train without distraction. No mirrors lined with strangers. No music turned up to cover bad coaching. Just one coach, one client, and a real plan.
Over time SBM grew into something closer to a community than a gym — parents and kids, executives and retirees, all working toward strength, mobility, and a calmer relationship with their bodies. Sessions are appointment-only on purpose. It's what allows us to keep things personal.
"We're here to foster a community of families dedicated to holistic health — strength is just the start of it." Yuhui Chen · Founder, SBM Fitness
Every program is shaped around the person — your history, your body, your schedule. Start with a free trial session and we'll show you which fits.
One-on-one, in-person sessions at our Menlo Park facility. Tailored to your body, your goals, and your fitness level — whether you're returning from injury, training for an event, or building strength for the long term.
Book a free trialSmall group and team training, fully customized. Bring your family, your training partner, or your weekend run crew — we'll build the session around the group and keep it personal.
Plan a private classOn-site fitness classes, health seminars, nutrition workshops, and stress-management sessions for Peninsula teams. We design a program your people will actually show up for.
Request a proposalFour things shape every session, whether you're here for personal training, a private class, or a corporate workshop.
Every plan starts with a full movement screen and a real conversation. No copy-pasted programs — your sessions are written for you.
You'll see the same coach, in the same studio, who actually remembers what you worked on last week. That's the whole model.
Training is one input. We also talk about how you're eating, sleeping, and recovering — because the gym is only ever part of the answer.
Parents train. Teens train. Grandparents train. Our private studio is one of the few places on the Peninsula where a whole family can share a coach.
A few words from Menlo Park families and Peninsula teams we've trained.
"Yuhui rebuilt the way I train. Six months of personal training and my back pain is gone — and I'm lifting heavier than I did at 30. The studio is calm and the coaching is excellent."
"We started bringing our two teenagers to private classes after my husband's knee surgery. The whole family trains together now — Yuhui meets each of us where we are. It's been transformative."
"We brought SBM in for a corporate wellness program — strength sessions, a nutrition workshop, and a stress-management seminar. Our team still talks about it. Genuinely thoughtful work."
The first session is on us. Call, text, or email — we'll find a quiet time that works for you.
