I seriously got lost in those big fitness centers - FA is just the right hands-on size and environment. The personal training really keeps me focused and motivated. And the group classes are awesome.

Right when you walk in there is the check-in desk on the right and two treadmills on the left. There are also Monster & Reign energy drinks for you to purchase if you forget your preworkout. If I recall correctly, Iron Cowboy has 6 racks and 5 deadlift platforms. The barbells, plates, and many of the equipment are all brand new! I also love the details on the equipment featuring Deathgrip Derek's logo. As for accessories, it is a little limited but you can definitely get the basics done with the machines available. It does get a little crowded in the evening time since that's when most people work out but the members are all kind enough to work in together. Speaking of kind, I got to meet the owners Derek and Maggy- they were both very welcoming and I am super excited for their ideas on expanding the gym in the near future! Overall, solid gym and I am looking forward to coming back and getting a workout in! For more information, check out their Instagram page @iron.cowboy.gym P.S. This powerlifting gym has a water fountain and AC which is a must during the summer time in Houston.

The environment is high energy, super friendly and supportive. From the moment I joined, JJ took care of me and helped guide me to the package/membership that best matched my fitness needs. The boxing classes are challenging and engaging. Even though it's a group class, Pablo pays special attention to each and every person, working with them one on one, guiding them on how to improve their technique. And don't worry, you'll get your butt kicked and handed to you with each and every class but you'll enjoy every minute of it. I have been working out here for three months now and now I am doing personal training with Jose who is just phenomenal. Jose follows a structured no BS approach which I love. I told him my goals and he takes them as seriously, if not more seriously than me. He's gone above and beyond to work with my schedule, structure brutal workouts that will help me reach my goal as fast as possible and even check on my progress regularly to assess my progression rate. I've had my fair share of disappointment with personal training, and Jose has turned that around completely. From the beginning he's been truly invested in my progress and I am truly grateful to be training with him.

Getting started was very intimidating, but everyone one there has been very friendly and welcoming from day one. I especially love how Coach Will, along with the other coaches and students are all very encouraging has made me feel like a part of their big family. I'm being taught how to properly execute techniques and how to safely add weights in our workout. This place has every body type, age and experience. It's been quite motivating seeing every single person there work hard, root each other on while having fun. There hasn't been a day I left this place not feeling very accomplished, even on days I didn't feel like coming in to do the work. Coach Will loves being there and it is absolutely apparent. It's been great being able to come here, get stronger, healthier and also meet all the wonderful people.

I provided medical docs in person to cancel and they put it on a 30 day hold instead after confirming cancellation then charged a few more payments before I finally stopped payment via my bank. When I asked why, they conveniently claimed that the employee who put me on hold "by mistake" no longer works here. I've emailed and left messages countless times and they ignore because they want to rack up the charges. At this point I've moved somewhere there aren't any locations and yet they refuse to answer my messages or emails. Stay away from this location, they will scam you and laugh about it.

As a older gal I feel very comfortable working with people of every level of ability. Each person has a goal but each supports and cheers the other on to reach their goals.

If you're looking for someplace to discover your athletic ability and think you're to old, to heavy, to out of condition, Ohana Fitness will not only encourage you but support and challenge your thinking. It's a great place to realize just what you really made of, every person has an athlete inside them, find yours.

I wasn't an athlete... At all. I was a couch potato who did not care about nutrition or health…read more I used all forms of technology to make my life easier and allow myself to sink deeper and deeper into the couch of shame getting lazier and fatter everyday. I was slowly killing myself. No self confidence or self worth... Something had to change. I tried gyms such as Lifetime, LA Fitness, etc. but nothing worked. The exercise machines were a mystery to me and I never gained the confidence I needed to even give most of them a shot. Free weights were terrifying. Big meat heads slinging around heavy hunks of steel that would make my attempt to gain some muscle seem futile. Nothing but discouraging thoughts to reinforce my lack of confidence. I quickly gave up. Sometime later a friend of mine who knew my struggles to try and change my life around talked about a place that he thought could help. I said yeah why not. He got me in touch with the manager of Ohana Fitness. She and I talked about my current health and condition and the possibility of joining the gym. I was intimidated at first but as the conversation continued her friendly voice and motherly like wisdom eased my thoughts of pursuing a life of health and well-being and jump started me into their "101" introduction class. The next four weeks of my life would ultimately change the person you read about in the beginning of this review into a hungry gym rat. I learned how to use barbells and lift properly. Learned how to stretch. Learned how to eat. Learned how to think positive. I learned how to push myself further than I thought possible. At the end of my 101 training I was completely addicted. The trainers at Ohana Fitness are the elite. As soon as your foot steps through that door you are greeted with a welcoming optimism that's contagious from the beginning. Their expertise in proper and effective exercise seems infinite. Ask a question, they'll know the answer whether it be about exercise, nutrition, mobility, or general health. Their approachable, warm personalities make it easy to become their friend and their extensive knowledge makes it easy to be their pupil. This institution has the capability to save lives. You can't put a price on that. Come to Ohana Fitness, put your faith in the wonderful people you'll meet and start changing your life for, not the better, the BEST!
