Hitting it hard at the gym yesterday. Specific focus weights...I try to work out on weights at…read moreleast three tunes per week. I focused on upper body...as a side note, I hate working out on upper body. Yeah, I know you need to work out total body each week. Pushed through my workout and my body exhaled at the end of my routine. Observations.... This location has some of the red colored weight equipment as the top level burnet location, which was nice as the Burnet location is often pretty busy. Also, noticed of all Gold's gym locations I've visited, this location has the most merchandise for sale. Another great in the gym...

I decided to join Gold's Gym since it was very close to my home, they have many locations across…read moreAmerica, and I have had heard many great things about the corporation. I was able to secure a $30 per month membership since I signed a contract for 12 months, and that grants me access to any location that is the same or lower tier. I have been to cycling classes with Megan Smith and yoga classes with Kayur Patel. Both instructors are so friendly, knowledgeable and encouraging. All the staff members that work out at the front desk are so friendly, the always greet me and say goodbye. I was surprised to see so many lifting platforms and different machines I have never seen before. The only complaints that I have is that since this is an older gym, many of equipment is dinged up, but still operable. Also, instead of a posing room, I wished they used the space for a more functional amenity, like a hydromassage bed or a red-light therapy bed. If you are looking for an affordable gym where you can get a great cardio and/or strength training work out, this establishment is a great option since they have a vast variety of machines and equipment.

It's hardly ever fully booked so it's easy to get in, it's on ClassPass which is great! Best thing is the instructors! All of them are amazing, have different styles and are challenging!

Construction is hell over there but one day it will clear up.

You would think rather than using a third party and sending tickets in the mail, they would work directly with their customers. I guess the issue here is that after doing a workout I got a snack from a local business and then returned to my car. If this is a violation of my contract, fine, come talk to me, but having a third party send a bill in the mail threatening me with collections is passive aggressive and terrible customer service. Maybe they'll squeeze a couple extra bucks from people by doing this, but it seems like a classic example of "penny wise, pound foolish" since in the long run you'll just alienate your customers.

What a great experience so far. Requested information via the Yelp projects and John from Austin…read moreSimply Fit reached out promptly. Scheduled a call to review my needs and was able to get into Eric's schedule for a Friday assessment. The gym is quaint and quiet, I've driven by a million times. The parking is a bit odd, a few spots up front where you have to reverse onto S Lamar when exiting...sooo that can be a challenge. They have parking in the rear of the building which is great however there is a single entry way and well, not sure how multiple cars could park and get out. Just know your reverse skills need to be on point. The gym inside has everything you'd need and since it's not open to the public it's just the clients and trainers. That means no waiting for machines and no one looking at you while you're there. Eric is great, he's very easy to talk to and made the whole experience easy. Upon arrival we walked through the questionnaire filled out online to find out the why behind the personal training inquiry. He then did a body scan for weight and fat %, took blood pressure three times as well. Gave a quick tour of the gym and how things work then it was onto the physical movement assessment. Nothing too crazy, range of motion and flexibility tasks. Took an hour for the initial visit and came back the next day to finish a few small exercises then learn the warm up needed prior to sessions. No membership needed as you buy the session in backs, 5, 10, 20 and can be used how you want. Like that there's no long term contract to sign. Session will start in the next week or so with focus on building/repairing the base/functional imbalances before getting into the fun part. Time will tell how this goes, wish me luck!

Nick Deluz has truly changed the way I think about fitness, health, and strength. In the past year…read moreworking out with him as my trainer 3x a week (from February 25-February 26) I lost 15 pounds... now it's May I've lost 20, but honestly, that is only a surface component of the impact I've felt. More importantly, I drink so much less without really noticing, I eat better and I've built muscle and carved out a lean version of me that's much stronger and less achy than the me I've known for so long. I feel stronger and more stable in my body than I have in my adulthood, and it really does make me feel like I have more energy. I think because I do. Nick's approach goes far beyond just "working out." He has helped me improve my stability, mobility, posture, and overall strength in a way that feels sustainable and deeply functional. It's also just so pleasant to work out with him, I never dread the gym because we go hard, but not so hard that you just want to get out of there, and yet the results are still great!One of the biggest changes I've noticed is in my shoulders and neck. I've had long-time sloped shoulders and neck tension that used to bother me by the end of every workday, and now I'm moving through my days essentially pain-free. Nick is thoughtful, knowledgeable, humble, encouraging, and incredibly good at building a program around your actual body, your goals, and your life. I feel stronger, healthier, more confident, and more connected to my body because of his training. I cannot recommend Nick enough!! See my before and after - not that the outside is really what matters most, but how you feel inside.

Fantastic first experience at YTX, as I continue touring yoga studios around Austin. This might…read morehave been my best class yet, just barely beating out Yoga Hom a couple of weeks ago. The teacher (Lauren) crafted an expert sequence... definitely among the more challenging flows, but it also felt nourishing and balanced. The studio itself was in a great location right downtown, but it felt like a nice sanctuary amidst the buzz. Very clean overall, nice high ceilings in the studio, and even some showers/lockers in the bathroom! Really enjoyed it here and I'll look forward to coming back.

I've gone to about 4-5 heated pilates classes at YTX in the past month or two!…read moreI really loved the class and love the equipment and instructors. My only issues with YTX are that there is a fee to rent mats and there's a fee for a parking validation. Because of the parking I typically walk so I don't want to lug a mat around with me. I do feel like parking and mat fees separate a studio from being nice to being premium. Other than that, staff is always friendly and helpful and I enjoy going!

Located in downtown, this studio offers three types of classes currently, Interval (consists of…read morerotating between treadmill, rower, and floor exercise with weights kind of like Barry's but with extra rotation of rowers), 3x3 (mat style HIIT class that rotates through three different exercises that focuses on body parts and mostly using weights), mat heated Pilates, and Hi Def (more heat and cardio compared to 3 by 3). As of last time I went they currently do NOT offer cycling any more (unsure if they will bring it back). The studio itself is gorgeous - glass windows everywhere overlooking downtown Austin. The interval class is a low lights kind of club vibe with music while the 3 x 3 classes are held in glass rooms so very light and airy. For the classes requiring mats they do provide mats and towels and the room has labeled numbers where to put your mat down but know that the spacing is very tight and in a full class you're on top of each other. I have found the instructors to be incredibly friendly and personable and even in a big class they do try to get your name if they can. My favorite so far is Al Cairns and Carla Jian as they focus on form but also go around and check on everyone. Parking wise they offer 90 minute validated parking at 400 San Jacinto Ave but the parking can get full so there is another lot $5 at Littlefield. I never had trouble getting parking for the morning and noon classes, but evening is definitely more difficult. Cost wise I take the classes through Classpass but the cost usually range from $25-35 a class based on package you get. There Black Friday sale is very good and can get it down to $20-$22 a class. Amenity wise they provide showers with nice shampoo/conditioner/body wash and Dyson hair dryers and towels!

One of my absolute new fav spots for a workout class! I absolutely love coming in Friday mornings,…read morethere's usually a class on the second floor that has the entire three walls as windows and it's the nicest workout studio I've been able to workout in downtown (which is a bold statement!). I absolutely love how much light was coming in as well as the views surrounding as were absolutely beautiful. And of course the best part- the workout! Have had the best instructor on Friday mornings, she's motivational and super fun! The workouts I go to are called 3X3 and I love how it incorporates weights as well as HIIT work. Has become my go-to spot for reserving on class pass!!

Plus you get a killer playlist to listen to and people of all fitness levels to workout with. Looking forward to incorporate Heat into my exercise routine.
