"Judgment-free zone" apparently doesn't apply to management. I've personally heard management speak…read morenegatively about their own employees, many of whom are younger college students. If management is that comfortable judging and discussing their own staff in front of other people, imagine what they're saying about the members the second they walk away. I go to the gym to work out, not to feel like everything I do is being talked about. It's hard to feel comfortable in a "judgment-free zone" when the judgment seems to be coming directly from management.

This has been such a great find. I was skeptical at first but my experience has been amazing! My…read morefirst session was the introductory offer and it's very similar to Thai massage but with straps so you're not adding around. They're all done supine and offer 30 minute sessions or 50 minute sessions. There's also a massage chair you can sit in for a bit and drink some water. Friendly staff and skilled at what they do. Go check it out! You'll be glad you did. Keeping flexible helps to retain good movement of your joints and lessens any injuries if you're already flexible. There's multiple locations but this is the one I've been to and it's my understanding that they''re all similar.

Fit Austin has been my find of the year. So if you live anywhere close you should absolutely try a…read morefree class! Once you do, assuming you're motivated to make a change in your life, you'll most definitely become hooked. The facility and equipment (free weights, treadmills, TRX, Infrared Sauna, bio-metrics reader etc.) are top-notch, the training staff is excellent, and the classes are great. For the classes, the staff certainly wants to help you see results, but you do train at your own pace. Which is a good thing because with like CrossFit (which I've done) workouts turn into competitions and competition lead to injury, Fit Austin is self paced. Ultimately, you're only competition is yourself and what you decide to put into it. Special shout out to Lane, who always brings the energy + excellent WODs to the table. Do yourself a favor, drop the gym membership that you rarely use and when you do you just got through the motions. Instead get into see the crew at Fit Austin where you might pay more but you'll absolutely get more out of it. Thanks Fit Austin!

Lateef and his team are the best! I've been coming here for just over a year and I'm not only…read morenotably stronger I look so much better naked ! The workouts are tough but the best thing is that they are ALWAYS different. It's never the same boring old routine. They recently got an infrared sauna too! Their class times align to people who work long hours in addition to people who don't work as you can attend the 6am or 7am classes ( that's where I'm at ) or the 12pm or 5:30pm classes. I enjoy this class so much more then I ever enjoyed Barre, Yoga or CrossFit. It's just a true combination of everything and that makes it so much more doable as it never gets boring. Random body parts are always sore. They also always provide alternatives if you have an injury. The class is super diverse. People of ALL ages and ALL weights. It's refreshing. You're not intimated but you're also motivated. Personal tip: If Lateef doesn't immediately respond to your email just email again. He's an actual owner hustler as he teaches so many of his classes and does a lot of personal training and he doesn't have an assistant so he juggles it all on his own. Fit Austin is totally worth it so don't get upset just send a follow up and he will respond. It's worth it!!!!

It's hardly ever fully booked so it's easy to get in, it's on ClassPass which is great! Best thing is the instructors! All of them are amazing, have different styles and are challenging! You always leave feeling like you do a good workout, not just a stretch. I have felt myself advancing thanks to these instructors. Plenty of parking. Construction is hell over there but one day it will clear up.

Clean, friendly staff, organized, and everything in a weight lifers dream is in this gym. They do offer a free 7-day trial and good deal for memberships as well if you are a local and live near by. You have to check them out very amazing gym!! (:

The gym is always clean and tidy thanks to the work of James and the spotters. Highly recommend to anyone in the south Austin area

This location is very well maintained overall. However, it can get crowded depending on the time of…read moreday. If you're planning to do lap swimming after work, for example, it can be very difficult to find a lane because they often schedule classes during that same time. The gym floor also gets very busy in the evenings, although it's generally still manageable. It's nice to have a cafe though, and they have great quesadillas! They also occasionally send out emails about new programs and activities you can sign up for, which is nice, but unfortunately, some of the registration links don't work, and when I've emailed the person sending the updates for more details, I haven't received a response.

I LOVE this gym because it is like a resort but I wish the membership prices were lower. It costs…read morearound $350 a month! There are tons of really nice treadmills, some with a running track that is curved and more rugged like you are running outdoors on a trail. The bikes are great, very updated. I do think the weights machines are outdated and need to be replaced. The TRX area has some classes. They also have several rooms with Pilates reformers, barre classes, as well as yoga, and circuit training. There are fancy stretching machines and massage chairs! Bonus! The sauna and steam room are separate sexes located in the locker rooms for privacy. The showers have good quality hair products and body wash. They even have razors and q-tips as well as cotton wipes. Hair dryers are available too. The pool area is really like a resort it is so nice. Plenty of loungers to relax on and good shade spots. This gym has all the beautiful people haha. Everyone is in like Lulu-lemon and dress to impress. Fun but a little intimidating when you wear old gym closes. They also have pickleball courts and basketball. You can take a pickleball lesson and sign up to play with others when comfortable. Lastly there is a spa and hair salon as well as a food center with high quality ingredients. This place is really really nice. I have never seen a nicer club in my life!
