I've worked with trainers Mason and Colton here and both were exceptional. Professional, upbeat,…read moreencouraging, friendly, and respectful can describe these trainers. Most of all I was impressed by their professionalism and skill with guiding their clients through the weight training circuit. There is a very precise methodology and protocol that they are following. I liked it and found benefit to each of the components of it. It's clear that the program was very carefully and painstakingly thought out. Training for this job must be intense. The workout was extremely strenuous, especially when you have been there a while and built up some strength. Having sessions a half hour long is totally appropriate when you are working as hard as you do there and making your way thought the machines at a very efficient pace. Another thing I really appreciated about the trainers here is that they both clearly seemed to have a degree in exercise physiology. I have worked with several trainers before and the ones that actually studied this in college are far more effective. Being so attuned to athletic performance the trainers can tell when you are getting to your limit and can help to push you on. They're great at motivating so you can squeeze every last drop of strength out of your muscles. That said, they also are totally respectful if you need to take a breather, get water and let your heat rate come down a bit. As an out of shape person looking to build muscle for the sake of my health- I felt comfortable here and did not feel judged or that the trainers had any opinion of me being unfit. They were only kind, accepting and motivating. This has not been the case with other trainers I've worked with before and it is noteworthy. They get a gold star for professionalism. I would have liked to continue on but my financial situation changed and I needed to focus resources elsewhere. The cost for sessions is high but it is also worth it for the the amount of focus the trainers put into your work and the fact that it is 100% private.

Once or twice a week is all I need to stay in shape and I am so thankful it works for me. The trainers are fabulous and very knowledgeable.

Classes are for 10 people at a time and it's always a blast. Meg, Letitia and Megann are just a few of the best instructors that play the best jams to get you motivated for a 40min workout. For best results, going in 3 or 4 times a week will sculpt your body and boost your mood. I've always been physically active my entire life. I practiced professional dance for 23 years, ran track and played basketball. Non of those physical activities were for my husband and I wanted to find a workout that we could do together that he liked as well. We didn't have to go to far as we found Lagree Fit 415 studio just around the corner from where we lived in SF and after taking the first class, we were hooked. It's now going on 3 years with a break in between cause of the pandemic, moved to Austin, picked up where we left off at TLS ATX and I'm down 8lbs. Again, I'm absolutely hooked and you will too as soon as you start seeing the results. Don't wait anymore cause you are missing out!

Best little gym in Austin, hands down!…read more If you're looking for personalized functional training at a small gym that feels like a second home, look no further than Focus Fitness. As a 'couch potato in remission' AKA someone who doesn't exactly enjoy going to the gym and sweating it up, I have found my perfect fit at this tucked away little place. Not only do Dave and Paymahn definitely know their stuff, they also know how to make training fun by keeping it interesting and keeping you challenged. I joined Focus a year ago with fitness goals in mind; I keep on going not only because I see real results, but because the team and the other clients have become dear friends I look forward to seeing and having fun with. Thank you for keeping me on the right track, Focus Fitness!

I was also trying to recover from an injury and Dave worked up a training plan to help me recover and get stronger. Flexible training was also great, never once did I leave the gym feeling worse than when I started. I was encouraged to push my self but never to a point of injury, some days Dave could see I needed to adjust the programing and I still got a great workout injury free. I have learned so much about weight training and gotten stronger than I thought I could be. Since starting at Focus Fitness I have had the chance to do other workouts, boot camps and CrossFit classes but it wasn't what I was looking for after experiencing training at Focus.

KPT is not for the faint at heart. Holy crap. I'm just back from there this morning. I started…read moreworking out with one of the trainers, Lauren (also a good friend of mine, full disclosure here) last July. So basically, you do extremely heavy weights extremely slowly. You totally max out your muscles until you quite literally can't do anymore. And then sometimes, you want to hurl. And often, extremely foul words fly out of my mouth while working out with her. Actually, this morning, as I was doing leg press I think I said "Dang. I sound like a dude" because I did. You know, the big burly dudes at the gym who grunt and sound weird. Me, this morning. I have seen pretty cool results from this. I do weights once a week with her. You heard me - once a week! And my muscles stay really nicely toned. Now, you have to eat right, and do some cardio too, this isn't a magic workout that suddenly gives you a perfect body, but especially if you're a female, building muscle mass is very important. This is a way to do that without spending hours at the gym, or even having a gym membership for that matter. But you also can't be a big wimp and quit. Gotta trust the trainers and push yourself. I lovehate it. But I keep going back so I guess the love wins. Oh and they will work you out for free the first time. So if you're just curious, you can try it out and see what you think. I know, I sound like an ad for this place, but I really think it's good stuff and I feel great about myself when I see that I'm doing more weight, or going longer on a certain machine. And I love that little muscle that runs from my shoulder down my arm that is all nicely defined now!

Amy has also helped with variations on my other workouts to get the maximum benefit and is always keeping up with "what's trending" in workout and nutrition.

CP Burnet is fantastic!…read more It's such a fun workout, the 50 minute class goes by quickly and you'll get the burn! I've taken classes with Amber, Monica, Erin, Kate, Jane, and Melinda. All are exceptional with direction and form correction. All push you to be your best. I've taken privates with Amber and sheesh she's amazing! 10/10 for breaking things down, encouraging you, and making you reach a level that you didn't know you had. The studio is clean and spacious in the reformer room. The added bonus is that there's always parking available. Believe in the waitlist! You'll mostly likely get into the class that you want. The unlimited package grants you classes at any of the surrounding Pilates studios, so there is truly a way to get your work in everyday if you wish.

I started working out with Shawn in November of 2013. I was at a point of starting to develop…read moresignificant health problems, and I knew I HAD to workout. It wasn't just a matter of the weight I had packed on in the past few years. I also knew I was terrible at holding myself accountable to actually go and DO the workout. I'd make every excuse possible; work is too busy, it's too far, it's too expensive, I can do it on my own.... (fill in the blank). After talking to a few trainers (at other companies), I settled on Shawn who had been introduced to me several months prior in relation to Real Estate (I'm a Realtor). I reached out, and found his approach to be thoughtful, well prescribed and he actually LISTENED! I explained the health challenges I had, what my expectations were, and what experiences I had with working out. I simply cannot work out at super intense levels with my health concerns. I wanted a trainer who would be willing to understand this and not just throw me a generic workout plan because that's all they know. In terms of Shawn himself and everyone at FxFit... awesome! Shawn is very accommodating with my ever changing schedule, when he was travelling for the holidays, he lined up a trainer to work with me. He sends workouts during the week to keep reminding me of what I could be doing this week in between workouts. He recently got Crossfit trained, and is always looking to improve his skill set as well. He know's his stuff, hires great trainers, is humble, thoughtful and actually listens.

The amenities are decent and they have a nice range of machines and weights, but there are no saunas or steam rooms to enjoy and decompress.

You can bring your work bag here and do some work before or after a session knowing they have a full cafe available with coffee and cold brew! I'm enjoying my time at this location since they have a four lane outdoor lap pool, but if you don't mind a drive check out the other location a bit more up 183 and see which location is best for you.
