In May of 2018 I contacted Lyle explaining my situation, degree of fitness, and goals. He said to…read morecome by whenever worked for me and we would get started. I showed up at 5 am and that's when it all began. I had my bodyscan performed which quickly gave us the results that we needed to get to work. Quickly, Lyle & Haley got back to me setting me up on fitbot with my macros necessary to reach my goals. It is worth noting that all of this has been done remotely. I am presently living in Boston, although I am from New Orleans. Despite the distance, this has worked wonderfully with my coach Haley being responsive and insightful into how to make adjustments to my diet & exercise habits. It really was quite easy, hit the numbers, and the weight falls off. May-August I lost 20lb. Dropping from roughly 190 to about 168/170. My strength has remained the same & working capacity has increased. Now at this phase, Haley is running the numbers for what we need to do a bulk. I would absolutely recommend the gym and their coaching services, and will continue to use them in the near future. I will continue to update this review going forward.

Vitality is absolutely amazing. I found out about the gym thanks to a Facebook ad that let me know…read moreI could do a 3 class free trial. I have enjoyed my time there so much! I love that they are a tight-knit community that still manages to be so incredibly warm and welcoming towards new folks (like myself). They even do a monthly free workout called their "Friends and Family Day." I've been going to a gym for about a year and a half now 5x a week but was looking for something different that could challenge me and make me sweat. Vitality has been exactly that thing! They have 30 minute and hour workouts depending on what your preference is (30 mins is HIIT and 1 hr is more about strength and conditioning). All the trainers are incredibly knowledgeable and are awesome at pushing you and motivating you. I also like that they work with you on perfecting your form while doing exercises and movements so you prevent injury/maximize your effectiveness. I don't have great knees and when I let the trainers know that, they did a great job at modifying some of the exercises so I could still get a great workout in while remaining safe. They gym is super clean and they have tons of equipment that is in good condition. I also love how LGBTQ friendly the gym is which is a huge deal to me. This truly is a gym that is inclusive and for everyone!

A fridge with drinks is honor system too with water for a dollar. No onerous forms to fill out to avoid liability and no sales pitch. Owner was there and very nice. He has an adorable little dog that follows him around. Facility clean and has all the equipment you would need. Lots of aerobic machines. Guests friendly. It's not a spa. Ladies room so-so. It was clean tho. Free towels. I like that they have towels for cleaning equipment rather than wipes or paper towels. Will make this my go to gym when visiting NOLA in future.

It was the first time I learned how to use all of the machines, lift weights properly, and target specific areas. They even placed me in a small group for training when money was running tight. Everyone knew my name and gave me a warm welcome when I walked in. Coach Los and Tatyana truly changed my life by teaching me how to work out. My entire body changed and at first, I got extremely nervous because I got so muscular that my old clothes didn't fit anymore! But they talked me through it and explained that I was gainly much needed muscle and that gaining weight in my case was not a bad thing. I am so strong now and continue to use the techniques I learned from them when I lift. When I take flights and see someone struggling to get their luggage in the overhead, I just grab it and throw it up for them like I'm the Hulk!!!! : )

This is NOT a place with a bunch of gimmicky add-ons like fancy new cardio machines promising weight loss in no time, tanning booths, or hot stone massages. This is a place where regular, motivated folk go to get solid exercise. The trainers are fantastic, and they really hold the place together. Even if you're exercising alone, they'll never hesitate to answer questions or give you form recommendations if you want, but they're also never intrusive. I think it stands as a testimony to the trainers' skill that the gender ratio is pretty even in the classes, i.e. they manage to create an positive, serious, but not intimidating atmosphere. Other people in the classes are unanimously friendly (I get my movie and football news during the warm up, usually). Overall, I feel like I spend less time and mental effort exercising but I'm in better shape.

I think I've earned the right to give the first review for Cypress Fitness, as I have left quite a…read morebit of sweat there over the past four and a half months since they've opened. I had been doing kickboxing training with Brian for over a year at another gym when he told me that he and a business partner, Brandon, were opening their own gym on Tchoup. So I followed him there and have been taking TRX, Kettlebell, and various other cardio and circuit training classes pretty regularly. TRX is something that everyone in NOLA who likes to eat, but does not like being fat, should get into. It is effective for everyone from frail grannies to muscled-up ex-navy seals (who developed the system). Drew Brees endorses it (and uses it), so that alone should convince you to try it. Kettlebell training with Brandon will make you strong. Not stare-at-your-arms-in-the-mirror-while-you-do-curls strong, but real functional strength. No machines, just your body moving itself and an object in dynamic, natural movements with your core and stabilizing muscles working the whole time. I was trying to think of an adequate metaphor/simile to describe the results I've experienced from my training at Cypress, and the best I could come up with was "These abs! I look like a white D'Angelo circa 'Untitled (How does it feel).'" Is that too obscure an early '00s R&B video reference? Maybe. Suffice it to say that the trainers at Cypress Fitness will motivate you to get in great shape, in a completely judgment-free, supportive, accessible and fun environment. This is not a chain-franchise-Anytime-Riviera gym -- it is a gym run by people who care about your health, designed for people who want to achieve their better selves.
