Steve at Inspire Fitness (in Cedar Park, TX) has been my personal trainer for probably around 12-13 years now. I am currently a 65 year old female and Steve is very well versed on effective training methods for me at this stage of my life and at my current level of fitness. While I have trained with Steve for all these years, I still struggled with managing the 'food noise' and was up and down with my weight. I have several acquaintances on tirzepatide who were seeing tremendous results in both their weight and overall health. Steve and I had a very open and frank conversation about this, and he encouraged me to do my own research if this was an avenue I wanted to pursue because he had already done his and was 100% supportive of me going down this path. I decided to see if this would help me with the 'food noise', and I started on tirzepatide in April of 2025. So far I've lost 98 pounds, my latest labs are impeccable, and know now that I have the puzzle piece that's been missing in my decades-long struggle with my weight and overall health. Steve has been there every step of the way, making sure I get the workouts I need as the weight comes off as well as encouraging me with this GLP-1 journey. Steve is kind, funny, knowledgeable, and very patient, and I cannot recommend him highly enough if you're looking for a trainer to help you be successful in getting healthier and more fit. The Inspire Fitness facility is clean, well equipped, and very well maintained. The owners (and Steve is one!) take great pride in having one of the very best facilities in the Cedar Park area. There aren't enough superlatives to convey my appreciation for discovering Inspire Fitness and specifically Steve. I can't imagine my life without Inspire Fitness! read more

I train here frequently, everyone is very friendly and trainers are great. Highly recommend.

I'm new to the gym world, no idea how to use the machines properly. No idea about a routine to work all the muscle groups. Like I'm just lost without Chad my trainer. I love how he explains everything to me. How the machine works, what muscles are being worked. He watches my form to make sure I'm getting the most benefit and not injuring any muscles . He cares about me reaching my goals, which is obviously important. We talk about healthy food choices and I tell him what I've eaten through the week. And the water intake as well. Chad is a great trainer if you're looking to make a change in your outlook, body, health and well-being. read more

Now, after my original review posted TWO YEARS ago, Chad took the time to read it. He is upset that I gave him a negative review. Boo hoo. In his comment he blatantly lies by stating that i "was asked to leave." NEVER HAPPENED. I did not renew membership, in fact, I still had paid ahead for membership but left anyways because of Chad. I was NEVER asked to leave. My description of what happened is spot on but Chad has selective memory, probably due to his anger issues. Chad is making things up about the situation. Former trainer George was a witness. read more

I've had such a great experience here! The environment is so welcoming and everyone has been friendly & easy to work with. So far I've worked with Steve, Chad, Jacqueline, and Karen, and they've all been fantastic. I highly recommend this gym. read more

This is a local gym and is a best kept secret IMO. Super friendly trainers and a very clean and good gym. Have been going here for more than a year and have enjoyed every minute of it. Shout out to Steve and Chad but honestly everybody here is very friendly and very good trainers. read more

My husband and I have been working out at Inspire for about a month now - he is training with Chad and I work with Steve. We love this place! Inspire is a small boutique type studio, and when you walk in you know that everyone there knows your name and is firmly committed to your success. Steve has been incredibly encouraging, but he's tough! I find myself doing progressively more challenging workouts, but he is very careful to make sure that I stay free of injury. They are also very active in diet planning and helping me stay on track with food goals. My husband worked with Chad at his previous place of work, but we are so happy that he decided to open Inspire. We love the personal atmosphere. They just - this week - added massage services. I got a massage from Tracie and she was great - instead of just a feelgood, this was a therapeutic massage which helped me with some old injuries. It felt great too! :-) Overall - if you are looking to get real about your fitness goals I could not recommend a better place. read more

I have been going to Inspire since December of 2010, and have been training with George. I have had various other trainers in the past at various other places, and I have to say George and the rest of the Inspire team are AWESOME! The results I have seen in my strength and muscle definition have been more noticeable since I started going to Inspire. I really enjoy the personal atmosphere, encouragement, and personal attention to my fitness goals that Inspire has to offer. They really do INSPIRE you to greatness! What I like about Inspire is the flexibility to try out more challenging and radical exercises whether it's the various uses of TRX, or Kettelbells or BOSU balls, there is always a new exercise in the portfolio so that each and every muscle is worked on to achieve my fitness goals. I always look forward to my biweekly sessions because you never know what new challenging/radical exercise George will come up with! In addition to personal training Inspire also has a massage therapist, Tracie; she is well versed with the type of massage your body needs depending on the type of exercise and training you do. I really have enjoyed my massages from Tracie; she's gotten rid of a few knots and relaxed some very tired muscles. It is convenient to schedule your personal training followed by a massage if you have the time. I have had friends compliment me on the changes they have seen and ask what I am doing that's working, I tell them it's INSPIRE. read more

I love working out here and now that the buildout of the second phase is almost complete, am looking forward to being there all week. Chad and his team are excellent and you'll definitely get your money's worth! read more

I've been going to Inspire since they first opened, and I couldn't be happier. I have used trainers before at other gyms, but this place provides the whole package I was looking for. Not only is my trainer outstanding, but the facility, staff, and other clients make this a comfortable, nonjudgmental place to work out. It is much smaller than other gyms, which makes it much more personalized; I feel like they are there for ME. They aren't just there for a workout session, they are focused in making a healthier me. The facilities are very clean and accommodating and unlike a typical gym in many senses. Many of the features are handmade (such as the lockers) and details (such as cloth hand towels in the locker rooms) give it a "homey" feel. The equipment and facilities are clean and in excellent condition; I don't worry about "catching" something from other clients using the same equipment. The staff is very supportive, and even though I have a specific trainer I see, I feel like everyone there is genuinely supportive in helping me reach my goals. It's more than going to work out, I feel like I "belong" there. Occasionally there are special events such as block parties or boot camps which allow me to make new friends with similar goals to mine. The trainers seem like they have different styles, approaches, and personalities which allow clients to find the best fit, so there is flexibility. I have been working out with George for quite some time now, and he is that perfect fit for me. He pushes me exactly the right amount, and not only helps me become more fit, but also builds my confidence in making me prove to myself that I can do things I didn't think I could do, and recognize how far I've come. I feel George sincerely cares about my goals and helps me reach them through workouts, nutrition, general awareness, and mental support. His attention goes beyond my time at Inspire by giving me homework and keeping tabs on my cardio on days I don't workout at Inspire. I originally started seeing him to lose weight, but it has evolved into life changes that will stick with me. read more

I have been training at Inspire since February of 2011. I work out with my trainer (Thomas) twice a week. My goals were to improve my overall health and lose weight. I couldn't be happier with the results. i have lost a substantial amount of weight and I went from being in real danger of becoming a diabetic to normal blood sugar levels. I know I have added years to my life and would encourage others to make the change. If you are hesitant to go to the gym because you are out of shape or just don't like the big box gyms, I'm confident Inspire will make you comfortable and push you harder to help you achieve your goals faster. read more

I cannot say enough great things about Inspire. I trained with Steve for about 8 months. In that time, I learned a tremendous amount about food and what to put into my body for nourishment. I also became comfortable in the gym. It was a struggle for me to get into the gym at first, but now I'm happy to go workout and take care of myself. In the time I was at Inspire, I lost 55 pounds. Since that time, I've lost an additional 11 pounds on my own, using all of the information given to me at Inspire. I could not have done this without Steve's help, encouragement, & instruction. I would recommend Inspire to anyone interested in getting fit. Inspire isn't a large gym where you would get lost. Instead, everyone at Inspire is friendly and encouraging. The gym is super-clean and all of the equipment is in good condition. The staff is knowledgeable and very accommodating. If you're thinking about getting a trainer, call Inspire. You won't be disappointed. read more

Update - 4 months in to working out at Inspire, and i have to say that i am so grateful to these guys. I feel like a new person! I'm down 34 pounds, and i actually look forward to my workouts, both at the gym and on my own. The trainers are knowledgeable and love what they do, and it shows. read more

Inspire Fitness is the Cheers of local Gyms! I love this place. Been going now for 3 months and the personal training has been the best one-on-one experience that I have had in 20 years. The gym is always so clean. Also, the gym is a very safe & secure environment, my wife goes there by herself and can always count on a trainer (who you know on a first name basis) to help out with weights and provide instruction​ if needed. Finally,​ there is nutritional coaching that helped me and my wife meet and achieve our fitness and body goals. Inspire has very skilled/experienced trainers/experts who know how to help you reach your goals. Inspire is an oasis amongst the many big box gyms. Don't​ waste your money on contracts, go in and talk to Chad to craft a plan that works for you and your budget. If what you're​ looking for is a safe, clean, focused, one-on-one support that can guide you to plan that is healthy, safe, work-out friendly, and in a clean environment that allows you to reach your fitness goals. Then, Inspire is the place I would recommend. read more

I found Inspire Fitness through the personal recommendation of a friend that had finally been able to lose weight after struggling with thyroid issues. I was at the end of my rope, frustrated with exercising, trying to eat right and not seeing any results. I blamed middle age, my thyroid issues, lack of willpower and discipline. I walked into Inspire Fitness and sat down with Owner/Personal Trainer, Chad Kroll and gave him my story. He listened, he understood, he told me what he knew would work for me and then spent an hour explaining my body to me. I learned more in that hour than I had in years of trying to do it myself. The facility is conveniently located, supremely clean and every single person on the staff is as passionate about health as Chad. Since February of 2012 I have lost 33 pounds. It feels almost like a miracle. Once I understood the science of food and what it does (good and bad) in my body I was finally able to put the nutrition pieces together. Chad checks my diet log at every session and makes recommendations to keep me eating clean and healthy. I do not feel at all like I am on a diet. I have no cravings, feel satisfied and am so incredibly proud of myself. Eating right has made all the difference in the world. I am getting stronger with every workout. I do weight training with Chad and have also taken several Spin and Yoga classes at Inspire. The class sizes are very small and it feels like a personal Spin or Yoga class. Chad teaches me, challenges me, encourages me, sets goals and celebrates my achievements big and small. He even works in a little psychology to help me figure out how I ended up so unhealthy and how to handle any challenges I might face to reach my fitness goal. I feel like I am getting the same kind of treatment a contestant on the Biggest Loser would get from Bob Harper. I am a believer. I trust what Chad says and I learn something new every single time I walk through the door. After years of frustration I am following his advice to the letter and I am getting healthy and fit. It has been a life changing experience for me and I only wish I would have found Inspire Fitness sooner! read more

I have been going to Inspire since they first opened and have made incredible improvement. I had major shoulder surgery 11 months ago and was told that it would take a year or more to get back where I was before surgery and there would be things I would never do again. I went to physical therapy and after 6 months I could still not lift my arm above my shoulder and was not making any more progress. My doctor pretty much said that I would have to be happy with that. My personal trainer (James) at Inspire Fitness would not give up. We worked slow at first trying to get more flexibility, which progressed as we worked week by week. I started getting massages weekly from Tracey and again I progressed. We moved on to weight training and again I progressed. I am about 99% of what I was before the surgery and still making progress week by week. I can not say enough about the personal attention I receive at Inspire Fitness. Without them I probably would have given up and accepted the fact that I would have limited use of my arm for the rest of my life. The facility is well maintained -- in fact, I see someone cleaning almost every time I am in there. The trainers are professional and very friendly. The massages are unbelievable and I can hardly wait for the expansion to open with the new classes. read more

Love this place! I stumbled upon it when my daughter was at a nearby volleyball clinic. So glad it's here!

I've been training at Inspire Fitness since the first day they opened their doors. I've been training with Chad for two and half years now. And at 57, I'm probably in the best shape of my life. I have muscle definition that I never have had. I enjoy training at a gym where we don't have to alter our routine because the equipment is not available. As time goes by, they just keep offering more and more. And I love it. I live in Austin but the drive is worth it. And the money spent there is worth it. They are very accomodating to my schedule and my needs. read more

I'm not one who writes a lot of reviews but I definitely wanted to do this for the guys and gals at Inspire Fitness. Last year I was diagnosed as diabetic, I was 40lbs overweight, I did not exercise at all and my eating habits were pretty much all fast food. At the advice of my doctor I had to make some changes or I risked a pretty bleak future. That got me off the couch and I started out slow. I changed my diet with much healthier food choices and I found that I really love to cook and I'm getting better at it. I also started working on losing the weight by walking every day. I started with just about of a mile a day and after a few weeks I was doing 4 to 5 miles a day and riding my bike again after years of it hanging up in my garage. In 4 months I had dropped 40lbs and was down to about 135lbs, but I felt kinda scrawny at that weight...even though it was an ideal weight for my frame. One thing I wanted to accomplish was to put on some muscle and get in better shape, and my doctor agreed that added muscle does wonders for diabetics as muscle burns sugar much more efficiently. I have been a member of some big box gyms in the past and I never saw results from going. I would join and would work out for months and not see any changes. I tried working with a couple of trainers and did not get any results either. I later found that I was not doing the correct exercises and the ones I was doing I was doing wrong. I knew that if I joined a gym this time, it had to be different. If I did not see any results, I knew I would get discouraged and just drop out which happens with a lot of people who try to get into shape. I was doing research on which gym to go to and most of them just focused on the cost and membership terms when I went to talk to them. I was getting kind of discouraged by the whole process. Then one day I saw a commercial for Inspire Fitness and I figured I would give them a visit....it was the best decision I made. I spoke with Chad and he set my mind at ease. He did not even talk about membership or cost, he talked about what I wanted and what his team could do for me to help with my diabetes. He teamed me up with Steve and it has been nothing but great from day one! The whole team there is amazing...its kind of like Cheers...everyone knows your name. The team is the friendliest around, they don't judge and they make working out fun. Steve is amazing, he changes up my workouts every time I go in so I don't ever get into a rut when working out and the intensity increases with each one. He watches me for the entire session and when my body tries to cheat as the exercise gets harder, he is there to make sure I'm doing it right to get the benefit of the exercise. He gives me advice on my nutrition and monitors what I'm eating to make sure I'm on track to see and feel the changes. His Saturday boot camps are a great way to round out the week also. I have been working out with him for 6 months now so this is not just a quick review after a few work out sessions. In 6 months, I have added about 15lbs of muscle and I'm starting to actually see the changes in the mirror. More important I'm feeling them even more. I'm sleeping better and my energy level is way up. I don't just sit around looking at things that need to be done, I have the drive to get them done now. I know its tough to commit and stick with it, but if you give these guys a shot, you will not be disappointed. I'm looking forward to the next six months and see what a full year will do for me. Do yourself a favor and give them a try....let them Inspire you. read more

If you are looking for a true personal training experience, then Inspire Fitness is the where and Tasha is the who!! I have never worked with a trainer before visiting Inspire but was so impressed with the facility and the friendliness of the entire staff that I decided to try it out! I ended up being very lucky to be paired with Tasha! She has been the biggest motivator, teacher, and all around super trainer! She is very knowledgeable about not just training your body but working with you on getting the right nutrients into you is something she stresses with equal ease. The results that I am seeing after just 4 months of working with her are phenomenal! I look better, feel better and know I am in good hands with my health and nutrition. I highly recommend coming to Inspire and learning how fitness can truly change your life.....go and get inspired! read more
