This is my first gym I've ever joined, and it was one of the best experiences I've ever had. I'm a complete beginner, but Coach Austin was super patient with me, and he even tailored the workouts to my personal needs. Whenever I went skiing on the weekends, he would change the workouts during our personal training sessions to recover (or prepare) from skiing. Austin has so much expertise and knowledge on lifting safely and anatomy and diet strategies. He is super relatable and has a great sense of humor (check out his TikTok and Instagram pages!) Austin is also very flexible and adjusts to my schedule. I can easily reschedule my personal training sessions with him, if something comes up in my personal or work life. I can text him any questions I have. He uses Google Calendar to keep organized, which I truly appreciate because I live by my Google calendar. He also assigns me home workouts through an app, so I can stay consistent with my routine, and he also recommends what foods I should eat, so I can build muscle mass. The gym has all the equipment I need to start off lifting, and it is super close to my house. All the staff members are super kind, and the vibes are just great (chill and lowkey vibes). There is a small outdoor space in the back, and doing outdoor cardio on a sunny day is amazing. They play classic movies on the TV , and play classic music (R&B, rock, pop) which I love. I felt supported, and not shamed, as a beginner who is just trying to be more active and build a little bit of muscle mass. They offer a free trial session that includes an assessment of your body (weight, diet habits and everything). I'm sad to be moving away and changing gyms, but I can't wait to visit! Personal training with Austin has been overall great and I highly recommend! 5 stars!! :) read more

I signed-up for the small group training with Nicole and I really love it! Nicole is super friendly and knowledgeable. She explains different movements using analogies which helps me visualize when doing the movement. She also takes the time to correct my form. For example, when I lift weight, I unconsciously bring my knees in which is a no-no. Nicole coached me to do few basic movements to help correct my knee and my overall lifting posture. I love how Nicole mixes-up the workouts so there is always a different (fun) challenge every session. I also SUPER appreciate her flexibility in schedule, given my tough schedule with work and a toddler. Did I also mentioned that Nicole is super friendly too? :) The other trainers are also super friendly and makes you feel like a family. If you are looking for a 'community-like' workout place, this is definitely the place to go. I highly recommend this place and Nicole as a trainer! read more

Over the past 5 months, HSC has become "my gym". I feel like part of a not-so-little family here where everybody fist bumps you to say hi and people yell out your name excitedly when you walk in the door. My own family doesn't even get that excited to see me. Comparing my experience here to tons of studios and commercial gyms I've been to, staff + members + events = amazing community. STAFF Austin (the owner) teaches some mean cardio and boxing classes to get you in shape where I almost passed out the first time I went. Ivy will kick your butt in a$$ class and then spend time helping you individually to correct your pull-up form. Kim does all things powerlifting and will hold you to the highest standard as she cheers you on when you bench more than you thought you could. Tim does all things Olympic weightlifting and super patiently tells you time and time again how you need to stop holding the barbell like you're about to mic drop. Myra is the in-house physical therapist and does a weekly stretching class that helps your muscles release through a series of challenging movements (no laying around here!). Plus Arthur, Jessie, Kolin, and the rest of the staff who do an amazing job supporting members and making sure HSC is running smoothly. All of this matters because I've been to studios where I got yelled at for not following/understanding the instructor's direction. (Thankfully, Tim never yells at me for misreading BTN as "below the knee" and not "below the neck". -_- ) If you're serious about improving in something, a coach will help put together a customized plan for you. There's even a Facebook group where the coaches do weekly check-ins! MEMBERS People actually made an effort to introduce themselves and say hi. I progressed in large part to both getting help and tips from other members and being inspired by watching the gains that everyone else was making. Knowing that I'll be seeing the same set of people 3x a week makes me feel accountable in actually showing up to the gym consistently. EVENTS There was an Olympic lifting meet in East Bay recently, and it was awesome to see so many members of the gym show up to support other members who had been training for months to compete for the first time. HSC even held a mock powerlifting meet to help beginners feel good about competing! On top of just meets, HSC hosts holiday parties and tons of social events throughout the year. A friend tried to convince me to join Equinox (hello, Eucalyptus towels!), but when I went, nobody was there to correct my form or made sure I knew what I was doing. Nobody was chatting between sets about random stuff like the best way to tie up long hair. At the end of the day, no amount of Kiehl's products can replace the community here. read more

Let's start with this: I LOVE HSC. I started a personal training program online during the pandemic, and have since moved to the in person training with the many safety measures that HSC offer. I hadn't worked out for several years, I was out of shape, had some extra pounds, and wanted to focus on just moving better in my own body and getting stronger. I was also nervous as I had tried other strength gyms that i had had negative experiences with. HSC could not be further from those other experiences. Austin, the owner, is AMAZING. His technical knowledge, his humour and his dedication to listening to his clients and helping them work to their own goals is outstanding. All coaches and clients are friendly, technically amazing, and welcoming, and the vibe of really rooting for each other is noticeable. Nikki is my coach and she is just simply fantastic. Her knowledge is exceptional; She makes me laugh ALL the time, and she develops programs that are really tailored to me (not just repeated from a standard circuit). For example, we worked on exercises to build up strength in an ankle I had broken a couple of years before. I enjoy our sessions so much that I even had video sessions with her on a recent vacation to visit my family; she encouraged me to invite my family to the sessions too and I ended up working out with my 10 year old niece! (Who adores Nikki now- she doesn't even ask about me anymore, just Nikki haha). I just can't say enough good things about this gym, the trainers and my coach. It's built my confidence, helped me become healthier and I really look forward to going there! If you're looking for trainers/ gym that can support you in whatever goals you have, are hugely friendly and welcoming, and where there is a lot of humor, don't hesitate- go here!! read more

I've been training with Coach Austin since 2010 at another gym. A lot has happened in 6 years, he got his own gym, I moved an hour and a half away from SJ. But I will still go to him for a session when I can even though it is really out of the way. The thing that I love about this place is that Austin knows how to make a community, and make each person that trains with him feel that they can do it. That's what makes me always come back. I have never known a coach as dedicated, hardworking, and selfless. The facility is a geeks dream. I love that it's almost like a playground of fun. Their staff are so accommodating and helpful (thanks Micah for always finding the expo markers for me!) Thanks Austin and staff for everything! read more

HSC is like a second home. Coming from a fellow comic book nerd, seeing all their decor is something that I wish I had myself! Aside from that, what I appreciate about HSC is that they make sure people feel comfortable during the pandemic. They definitely do their part in following whatever guidelines the CDC/state/county require with hand sanitizer stations, options for outdoor workouts, and swamp cooler type fans to help with proper air circulation. I recently started taking group training sessions with Coach Ken, and he is exactly what you want in a trainer and more. He is a ball of energy that will constantly motivate you and push you to reach your goals. He goes above and beyond in making sure you're taking the necessary steps toward any type of progression both in the gym and in the kitchen. He also does a great job in explaining certain exercises on why it's good for you and how to do each movement. I really appreciate that Coach Ken always asks how your body is feeling and will recommend different modifications if you're having trouble or feeling some type of discomfort. What he brings to the table is an infectious positive attitude and just a true inspiring individual. Coach Ken is without a doubt a 5/5! read more

Coach Toloza helped me to strengthen my knee and to feel comfortable with weight . He's very knowledgeable and always responds to any questions you may have with your fitness goals. read more

When the shelter-in-place order was enforced for COVID-19, I had only been with HSC for about a month, just barely starting my fitness journey. I was surprised when Coach Austin reached out to me to see if I wanted to continue my personal training online. I'm so glad he did! I train with Coach Austin a few times a week and he is a ball of infectious, positive energy filled with workout wisdom. At the beginning of each session, he asks how I'm feeling and what is sore AND works around how I'm feeling on the fly. As a beginner, that makes a world of difference to me to have coaches that work at your pace and personalize lessons to you, while at the same time pushing you further each time. I've come a far way since the beginning of the year in terms of strength, mental fortitude, and developing a can-do attitude. I have HSC to thank for that. I've still got a ways to go but I'm thankful to have found HSC to guide me there. HSC is lead by a passionate group of people who really care about their members and want to see them succeed. I can't recommend this gym enough! read more

I've been coming to HSC for the past two years and I love it. Ever since joining, I feel like I have learned so much. When I first started, I realized I was previously not pushing myself as hard as I could. Now, I never imagined that I could lift so much weight. I feel so strong!! So much credit to the coaches. They are amazing and encouraging. They change up the workouts and make sure they're challenging for all levels. They pay close attention and help you improve your form. When I walk in, I love the energy that HSC has. Everyone is so welcoming and friendly. It's motivating to be around others that have these awesome goals. I honestly look forward to coming here and love that HSC has become part of my weekly routine. read more

If you're looking to improve your workouts or challenge yourself to get to the next level, HSC is the gym for you. You can choose from a variety of group classes or get ACTUAL personalized training (not that cookie cutter one size fits all type training that you would get at your commercial gyms). I came to HSC because I wanted to get strong enough to compete in powerlifting and I got so much more than that. I've been here for almost 5 months and I've hit numbers I never thought I could do. Not only that I will be completing a second meet before the end of the year!! Shoutout to Commander Coach Kilo for keeping it real and pushing me to my limits!! Going to HSC has definitely become the best part of my days just because you are surrounded by welcoming and supportive members and staff. I would highly recommend HSC!! read more

This review is long overdue. I had finally made the decision to get my health back in order. I did a search and I found three gyms in the area. Hyper Strength and Conditioning was the first to respond. I spoke to Coach Austin and he paired me up with Coach Anthony...I'm telling you that was one of the best things to have happened to me. I came in at my highest weight ever with all the bad that comes with being overweight. After just one meeting with Coach Anthony, I knew that I wasn't going to bother with the other two gyms. We started talking about expectations and goals, and I realized that I felt very comfortable with him. I realized pretty quickly that he was very knowledgeable and took his job seriously. He came up with a plan for me that was perfect for the level that I was at. I'm not going to lie, starting this journey was HARD for me. There were many mornings that I woke up as sore as can be and trying to come up with an excuse to not go in. Then Coach Anthony's words would pop into my head, "Get your mind right!", and that's all I needed to get me going. As much as I didn't want to disappoint myself, I didn't want to disappoint Coach Anthony. I've come a long way from where I started and I give all thanks to Coach Anthony. He has motivated me beyond what I could ever have imagined. I'm down in weight, I feel the strongest that I've ever been, and my health is back in order. I'm still on my journey to get where I want to be and I have no doubt I will get there with the help of Coach Anthony aka "My Brotha"...Thank you! read more

HSC is awesome and has been a lifesaver during the COVID pandemic. The gym gives me a place to lift heavy weights (I don't have a barbell and plates at home!) and focus on improving my health and fitness. My trainer (Nick) is super knowledgeable, patient, and encouraging, and he's excellent at putting together a weekly program that challenges me at just the right difficulty level and pace. read more

I am late on this review, but it's better fashionably late than never right!? (Right!) This gym is great, because of many things, some of which include Coach Austin, the other coaches/staff, the friendly members, the good music, and the awesome decor (!!). It's got everything you need. Knowledge, inspiration, variety, potential for gainz? Yes x 4! Each and every one of the coaches are loaded with limitless energy/motivation and creative ideas for an excellent workout. So basically it's tons of fun and tons of pain (but the really, good kind). They are sincere, making sure you're doing correct technique and personalizing it to what you need. It's also an involved process and very much the people's gym: members are regularly asked on what HSC can do better, what they want to see/do/try, and then it happens. If you're looking into competing (or just being your healthiest self), this is such a supportive place that will work with you to get you where you want to be (best be ready to put in that work, son!). Lastly, it's a great place in aspects outside of fitness, too. Fan of comics/Star Wars/all things fantasy and need to discuss it? Come. Want fit friends to work out and eat with? Right heeere. Good place to take out all those rush hour traffic emotions? Yup, yup! read more

Found this gym out of the blue. Full of great people. Been working specifically with coach Bendo for about 5 months now. Very easy going guy, knows his stuff and gives great attention to what the best path is for you. Not only do I enjoy working out again but having a great trainer is also a big motivation to remain consistent and continue to get out of bed every morning. read more

If you want to train for obstacle races like the Spartan or the Tough Mudder, this gym is for you. They have everything you need- lots of elevated bars you can hang from, a vertical suspended rope to practice rope climbing, tires for flipping, spears, ample floor space- you name it, this place has it. They have nice cubbies to store your stuff and a wide selection of sports drinks you can buy. I come here to workout with my Spartan crew and it is a lot of fun. Highly recommend. read more

I never power lifted before coming here and now I love it! The atmosphere is awesome and super welcoming. It's also very motivational as people cheer you on after a good lift! I mainly take the powerlifting classes because I get out of work late. As a beginner, they show you the basics on the three major lifts (squats, bench and deadlift) and how to have proper form, breathing and etc. I've done the conditioning classes and boy.. they really work you out! It's cool though also because I've learned some very fun exercises from different coaches. It's great to attend the classes especially when you don't really have time to make your own work out. I've definitely gotten stronger after working out here and I plan to surpass more expectations read more

Having met the head coach/gym owner Austin before HSC, I came into the gym when it started, hoping for the best. I had known him to be an amazing conditioning coach and he was the one who fostered my love of powerlifting. The gym is nearing its second year in a couple months and I can truly say my expectations have been completely blown out of the water. On the powerlifting side, I have had several coaches mentor me at HSC. I've watched my lift totals rise higher and higher. On the conditioning side, I've had coaches teach me to love the intensity of it all. Conditioning classes are never boring and I've always felt challenged. Classes aside, what I find to be the best quality of this gym is the community. In every class, there's a sense of camaraderie. We cheer each other on through each set or each lap. When I'm tired and want to sleep after a long work day and commute, knowing that I have a group of friends and coaches at the gym helps motivate me to come in. So if you're looking for a gym full of qualified trainers to help you reach your goals and members to cheer you on and work out alongside you, come check out HSC!! read more

Coach Austin and his staff are amazing. This is such a fun place to work out, and they really push you. So, HSC erases any 'gym fear' you may have, and they also become your new family. The coaches make you feel comfortable doing new things, or pushing yourself to new levels. We also all talk about sports, TV shows, movies, comics and video games. Pretty much, every fitness geek's dream gym. Austin and Josh (Austin's brother) personally trained me for a few years and were the main reasons I was able to go from 150 lbs up to 169 lbs. I was born to be a stick and have tried working out on my own, but never got passed 154 lbs. They took me to another level - but I still need to work on it to get over 9000. Whether you are into crossfit, olympic lifting, casual weight training, yoga, hip hop dance, or kickboxing, you'll find these all here. And the best part is that they really take feedback from customers/members seriously, and your idea could become a class. We did a class on light saber fighting and stunting, cmon. ANYTHING is possible here. #HSCFamily read more

I've been working as a coach here for about 2 years. This gym has a great environment, I wanted to find a gym I can train out of and I wanted my clients to feel comfortable in. All the staff and members of the gym were so welcoming when I came on as a new coach and before I knew it, I started to feel like family. Austin's a great coach with a big personality that'll get you going, highly recommend training here :) read more

This review is way over due. I fell in love with HSC the first day I stepped in. Every single person I met at HSC made me feel comfortable and welcome. The trainers are all amazing people who made me want to be there everyday. All the members are so welcoming and anytime I ever had a question or needed help someone was always there to help me out. I started out as a beginner so of course there were many times when I had trouble keeping up in the classes or there was some things I just couldn't do and I NEVER felt embarrassed. If anything everyone just made me want to try harder. I not only shed some weight but I gained confidence coming to HSC. read more

Went here a couple of times with my Spartan Race team to train, along with a powerlifting certification. Very surprised on how they have changed for the better! First time I came here for the certification, they were mainly a powerlifting gym. They had all the equipment and accessory tools, which made this place great. Over time, they added new oly lifting platforms, as well as tools to train for Spartan Races. I enjoy getting the chance to come here! Very welcoming to all styles and levels of fitness! read more

HSC is the first gym I've truly committed to and the experience has been amazing. My trainer/coach Nick does an amazing job and really breaks down every detail of our work outs together. He is also always available for any questions I have whenever I'm training on my own. The gym environment and staff is very welcoming and uplifting! I'd highly recommend coming here if your just getting started on your fitness/health journey. This has been a great investment I've made for myself and I encourage those to come check out our very diverse and warm gym community. read more

Before joining HSC, I was going to a commercial gym where I was mostly on the treadmill and doing light weights. I was always intimidated going to the weights area because I wasn't sure what to do with them or if I was using them correctly, so I would always need a workout buddy to go with me. Now that i have been at HSC for more than a year, I have learned how to powerlift, improved my endurance, not afraid of weights, gained gains I never thought I would get and I am hooked! All the coaches there are extremely knowledgeable, helpful and care about your goals and progress. They will offer constructive criticism that greatly improves your form and techniques. I am now not afraid to go to the gym by myself and actually look forward to working out allll the time. Before it was such a task to drag myself to go. A huge part of that is due to the positive and welcoming atmosphere of HSC. All the members root for each other and make conditioning and lifting fun. The staff is awesome and always smiling and facility is kept very clean. And get this - members actually rerack the weights they use! read more

One of the best experiences I've had with personal training! Coach Austin and the whole HSC group are amazing. I felt so empowered after working out with Austin. He pushed me to meet my goals and was very flexible in accommodating my crazy work schedule. If you're ever in San Jose and have some fitness goals you'd like to meet please don't hesitate to contact them. The gym is full of up to date equipment and the workouts Austin came up were always fun and innovative. Just great vibes all around. Much love to all of you at HSC read more

I've been working with Austin on-and-off for the last decade! That's a crazy thing to realize how long you've been with your personal trainer, but Austin and his staff are much more than that to me now. They have been there through all my major up-and-down's and been extremely supportive physically and emotionally. I don't think I can say that I'd be where I am fitness-wise if it hadn't been thanks to Austin's patience and passion for health and fitness. Just like everyone I know, I bounce back and forth when it comes to my weight and health, but Austin helped guide me to the path I am now with regular exercise and an understanding of how my body reacts to the food/fuel I put into it. I'm now the leanest I've ever been and have come to understand that I will always be a work "in progress." I've been training at HSC for nearly a year now and have even brought my younger sister in when she wanted to start training for strength and form, which is when I knew she needed to start coming here. Weight training is a serious endeavor and I highly stress the importance of training with a coach or personal trainer early on to develop proper form and to reduce the likelihood of injury. My sister has fallen in love with strength training and I'm excited to see her develop into the beast she'll most likely become especially since I went through the same training ground. I know the price is scary for a "gym membership," but you're getting so much more than just a place to pick up heavy things and then put them down. When you train at Hyper Strength and Conditioning, you get more than a gym, you're joining a community of fun-loving, ass-kicking, geek-based badasses. (Seriously though, all the training stations are captioned by comic book posters and they have a comic book lending library, and I've heard that HSC is even a registered vendor for Funko Pop!) SW: 221lbs CW: 172 lbs GW: 180 lbs NGW: ??? read more

I can speak for a lot of people when I say that Austin is hands down one of the most positive persons you'll ever meet. This guy was born for this, his infectious energy, upbeat demeanor, and motivational skills are second to none (If you ever hit a PR around him you'll see what I mean) and that's what's kept me training with him for years. When I heard he was opening his own gym, I immediately jumped on the opportunity to join and also brought my girlfriend with me. The facility is clean, organized and intimate, the coaches can see all the members at all times to help with correct form and answer any questions before, during, and after workouts. The equipment is great, clean, and always organized as well! #1 Gym Pet Peeve is when weights get left everywhere scrambled, that won't be the case here. The team of coaches Austin has assembled is great. Shoutout to Coach Jerry for the insane workouts. (If you love high intensity workouts that push you to your limit, I highly recommend taking one of Coach Jerry's classes for a spin!) If you're a beginner, not to worry, Coach Josh will help you with your form with all the Big 3 Lifts (Squat, Bench, Deadlift) AND SOME. The staff is friendly and welcomes you with a smile every time you step in. They're all very helpful with any questions you have with accounts and fitness. Not to mention the in house massage therapists from ABA! Azi is awesome, she's very professional and knowledgeable and went above and beyond making sure the nagging injury I had was taken care of. Lastly, I believe one of the more important things when looking for a gym though is the community. The last thing you want is to be working out and feeling insecure about it. The #HSCSquad is awesome and everyone is so positive, upbeat, and competitive at the same time. Besides great coaching, I believe nothing will push you to be better more than a competitive atmosphere, and you'll get that here during the Hyper Strong Barbell Club sessions. I suggest whoever is reading this to do the same as I did and let Coach Austin and his team help you become the best version of yourself with their passion for fitness. I can speak for a lot of people one more time when i say, I can't thank him enough! read more

I first heard about how great of a trainer Austin is from my boyfriend who has trained with him for over 7 years. When Austin opened his own gym, I finally decided to give his classes a try because I have a goal of losing 25-30 pounds this year and I've seen some of the amazing results that Austin's clients have had. At first I was going to the 7:15pm weight lifting classes on and off, but needed something that would leave me drenched with sweat at the end of every session. For some time, Austin would give me conditioning exercises to do on my own, while everyone else weight lifted, just so I could meet my need of moving and sweating more. I really appreciated that Austin would do that for me, but it was boring doing the exercises on my own. Eventually I switched over to the 6pm conditioning classes, which I love attending! No conditioning class has been the same ever since I consistently started going a few weeks ago, and each has left me stronger and sore the next day! Throughout the class Austin keeps everyone motivated, plus he can modify exercises for individuals who are too sore or have injuries. This gym has made me grow to love exercise more because the classes are really fun. Each day is different so it doesn't feel like a boring routine. In addition, the staff and the other members become like family because you see them on a daily basis. It really helps keep you motivated. I would recommend this gym to anyone at any level of exercising. read more

The REAL reason I started training with Austin was because I wanted to help him, a friend, fulfill a dream. Simple as that. I don't have any PR goals, I don't have weight loss goals, I don't have some kind of crazy marathon or race going on. I simply wanted to be part of the foundation process. This gym is growing, it is evident everyday and every month. PROS: - AUSTIN TOLOZA: Brains and Brawn. Knowledgeable about everything, bigger muscles than everyone. - Camaraderie. There is literally someone nicknamed Friend. Everyone is friendly. - Foam Rollers. - A challenge: Austin will push you, others will push you, in turn, you will push yourself. I will push you literally. - If you have any type of fitness goal, you'll see progress. Results are fast if you work at it - There's this crazy handheld tool that releases muscle and nerve tension. Patent pending. - They play GSW games sometimes. - Complimentary water and Gatorade - It's fun!!! CONS - I song requested Justin Bieber too many times, they now make you do some 50 pushups or 20 pull ups per song request. read more

Coach Austin is awesome!!! He's everything I would want in a trainer: Non-intimidating, SUPER motivating, down to earth and supportive at all times. He has a great sense of humor and always has a big smile on his face. Austin's classes are tough but he makes it fun so it doesn't feel too much like death. He combines weight training with high intensity circuit training so you get a full body work out. Austin also mixes up the work outs so it's something different every time, which is important because it challenges me. I feel stronger and healthier every time I leave his class! You can tell Austin is extremely passionate about his training and truly enjoys helping others achieve their goals. There's a reason he's ranked TOP TEN Personal Trainers by Lifetime Fitness! My wedding is coming up in 2 months and by consistently working out with Austin and focusing on my diet has made a big difference in my body. He also has a blog that I absolutely love reading because it's funny and completely honest and motivating. I've lost 10 pounds already and have a little more to go before I hit my goal. I know I can do it and I'm so thankful to have Austin to help me get me there. read more

Coach Austin and I met way back when my gym opened up to ask for some tips on opening his own gym. Coming to another coach/gym owner for advice isn't something that is as easy as it sounds to most people; the South Bay is saturated and egos tend to get in the way. As a fellow coach, I can tell you that Austin had that personality and openness that makes a good coach. There was no ego and he was straight up with me as to what he wanted to do. Flash forward to present day, he's opened up his own amazing facility and contributing to the quality that is hard to find in this area. Give him a try if you're in the area! read more

My husband and I love going here and it only took a couple of weeks before it became a habit. I get the challenge that I need and there are varieties of workout regimens each time so it's never boring. I joined HSC because I wanted to work on my core and upper body strength. When I started a few months ago, I could barely do 10 push-ups and hold a plank for more than 30 seconds. Now, they're my two favorite things to do. Each day that I came to class, I felt stronger and closer to my strength goals. I also noticed a major improvement in my endurance, which I know will help tremendously when I start training for my half marathon race. There is a strong sense of community here and everyone is very supportive of each other. It's just something you don't see in your traditional gyms. The facility is clean and well-maintained and the staff is super friendly and knowledgable. Lots of geekness incorporated in the gym and the workouts, which makes it a lot more fun and interesting. read more

So I've been coming here for about a year now... finally leaving a review!! I have to say, my favorite thing about HSC is the community. Everyone has a goal. Every goal is respected. You're free to be who you are and you feel the support, whatever your fitness or even life goals may be. I appreciate the motivation and camaraderie every time I attend a class. Over 9000!!! read more

Where do we begin... My husband and I have been training with Coach Austin for almost eight months now, and we can honestly say we are in the best shape at this point in our lives than we have been in the last 20 years. Coach Austin himself is a ball of energy that motivates you to be the best person you can be.. Both physically and mentally. Having such busy schedules is a way of life for my husband and I, and Coach Austin is always willing to work with and/or around us to accommodate our continuously changing schedules. We initially only planned on training for about three months, to get in shape for my brothers wedding. The wedding was four months ago, yet we continue to train and will continue to do so as long as we are physically able. Much kudos to Coach Austin.. You are one of the best investments we have made to better ourselves both physically and mentally. Words and money could never repay you. read more

I randomly stumbled across HSCGym on Instagram and decided to give the free consultation a try--I had gained a lot of weight over the past couple years and was looking for new motivation to start working out again. After a thorough 3D scan of my body composition and quick convo about my goals and current lifestyle, I decided on the spot to give it a shot and have not looked back since!! This gym and their awesome team of highly skilled trainers will not only push you, educate you, support and motivate you, they provide a welcoming community that makes you want to keep going back. While I'm still working towards my goals with Coach Anthony, I've never felt stronger or better about working out. While the rates are quite an investment, what better way than to invest in yourself. Really the best gym around. read more

Been here since day 1 and it really kicked my ass. Tried my best to be there for at least 2 classes a day. The soreness was all worth it. 2 months later and I lost about 5% body fat. All thanks to this awesome gym. What I love is that the classes are always different. Coach Austin is the most motivating coach I have ever worked with. He really pushes you to the limit while also being a jokester at times. The rest of the staff is just as great and I am glad to have been part of the journey. Everyone gets along and I hope to one day return. Much love to this gym! read more

I have known Austin for a few years, and every chance I get to train with him, I jump at the chance. With fitness professionals, I look for: intelligence, kindness, humor, and positive communication. Coach Toloza possesses all of these qualities. Austin is well-read and thorough in his fitness knowledge and very obviously cares about those he works with and for. Sometimes bombastic (making you laugh CONSTANTLY) and always in good spirits, Austin makes lifting an event! Always ready to field questions, this guy makes you feel better about what you're doing and, when the soreness sets in the next day, feel good about what you accomplished. The people he has been gathering as employees have all been likable, relatable, and interested in their class members. It. Is. awesome. A note on gender: I realize that some women prefer to have women trainers. If your decision is based off of intimidation, do not pass this gym up! The owners are considerate human beings who treat everyone as an individual, and never try to make you feel bad about yourself. Austin and his coaches will push you. It's his job! He will also respect you. read more

This is my home gym. I went from being a person who never dreamed of being able to powerlift to now prepping for my 3rd meet this year. Everyone here is so supportive and encouraging. As long as you put in the work, HSC's got your back. Plus key card access after hours make them stand out among all the other lifting gyms. I freaking love this place and look forward to seeing how far i can go. read more

I've been coming here for almost 3 years. It's been a pleasure watching them grow and evolve. Everyone from the staff and the members are very welcoming and supportive. Over the years, the members of HSC have become more like a family to me. Shout out to the Oly squad! read more

I've been coming here for about a year. Most of all I enjoy the people - coaches and members alike. They have many different classes, but I've been really enjoying Olympic lifting, they have a great staff and space for it. read more
