I love working out with Sondra. More than anyone I have ever worked out with, Sondra Lieder gets…read moreresults! She pushes me to work hard, but never pushes me to injury. I've improved not only my strength, but also my balance, stamina, and eating habits. When I started working with Sondra I had just finished my 3rd round of chemo. I had had breast cancer and several years later, uterine cancer. My diet had gotten really out of whack and I had gained about thirty pounds. In addition, my balance was terrible and I fell all the time. I had spent so much time in bed that I had very little strength or stamina. Our first year together was hard and I didn't always look forward to training. But I liked Sondra and actually began to enjoy our workouts! At first, I wasn't used to being challenged that way and I had gotten lazy. But something in me wanted to get stronger and fitter. I wanted her to be proud of me. I missed some workouts, but I kept at it. Today I'm not the same person. I look forward to workouts, and because Sondra is so knowledgeable, she knows how to keep me engaged. Now I hate to miss a session! I've lost all the weight I'd put on and am so much stronger and fitter, with better endurance. Sometimes it's hard for me to believe. I like the way I look and feel and I can do so much more than I once could. I plan to keep training with her. I think Sondra is the best! I recommend her unreservedly.

Kendall from KAGED Athletics helped me get into the best shape of my life for my wedding last year…read more My BFF in Texas would not stop raving about Kendall's personal training services, so I reached out to her to see if she could help me lose weight and get toned in 9 months (I live in NYC). This woman is such a great listener and was able to tailor meal plans as well as workouts for me remotely. Her response time was almost immediate despite the time difference, and she went above and beyond our contract to make sure I was happy with the results. Her coaching has me living my best life even after our contract was up - looking forward to reaching out to her again for some prenatal fitness guidance!

Highly recommend 100%! Great people, can't go wrong with any of the trainers here!…read more This last year has been full of big changes for me. One of those changes being going from weighing 250 pounds to 158. The first 45 pounds I lost on my own. The second 45 pounds (and the more difficult half to lose) I lost at ATX Gym. I worked with both Max and Kevin and they were both professional, knowledgeable and truly masters of their field. Not only did they help develop and maintain a training plan custom tailored for me and my goals, they also took the time to teach me what I was doing, why I was doing it and how to do it properly with good form. They were also highly motivational, offering encouragement to keep going, keep pushing my limits and and not give up. "It's not how you start, it's how you finish" - Max I've recently stopped going to ATX Gym, but I take with me everything I've gained and everything I've learned and continue to apply it as I live this new life with strength & confidence. Thank you Max & Kevin for everything!

If you're looking for personal training without the exorbitant cost, classes you actually WANT to…read morego to, or something like CrossFit without the cult, then look no further! ATX Gym has you covered. It's small, intimate and efficient. From what I've seen, the full spectrum of fitness levels finds a home here from those who could do Olympic lifts in their sleep to those who are just getting their feet wet (me). The classes always have a purpose and a plan but offer a lot of variety. Weightlifting, strength straining, booty building workshops, yoga, stretch, calisthenics, cardio conditioning, HIIT, dance--There's something for everyone. That's key for me personally, as I tend to get bored really fast and lose interest if it's the same thing every day. And the classes are small! No more than 6 people, which is the sweet spot between getting personal training and enjoying the comradery of others. It definitely helped me feel less intimidated, because let's be honest... walking into a group of strangers in unflattering workout clothes not knowing what to expect can be anxiety inducing. Lacey (owner and trainer) was so sweet, warm and welcoming! I felt welcomed immediately by her and the other few people in our group that were super supportive. Lacey and Max are knowledgeable hands-on owners that run their own classes and really invest a lot of time and energy into you. They really took a lot of time and stayed late with me to go over nutrition, set goals, and help me choose what classes would be best for me. Give this bad ass locally owned gym some love!

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 had never done personal training or any real weight training of any kind when I came to Focus…read moreFitness. 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.

I found Jesse to be very knowledgeable about form and technique, and super passionate about his craft. His passion is contagious! A good trainer is more than what they know. How they communicate that knowledge is equally important and that's where Jesse shines. He communicates in a way that's approachable and leaves you feeling motivated to go further. You can tell right away Jesse cares about his clients and that shows in the way he's able to meet you exactly where you're at. If you've ever wanted to hire a personal trainer, but are worried the experience might be intimidating, look no further. Jesse wants you to succeed and helps you to do so in a way that feels right to you. He knows how to simplify difficult movements to make them easier if you're not there yet, or make them more challenging when you're ready for it. He will challenge you to do your best, but knows that everyone is at a different level. You can't teach that or learn that from a book--that's who he is. Jesse is a great human being and a great person to train with. You won't regret working with him .

I love, love, love Regymen Round Rock!…read more As soon as you walk into the doors, the front desk staff and coaches are really excited and encouraging. It matters that they call your name out when you're working hard. It means they see you and they care to pump you up and encourage you to keep going or to fix your form if it is off to avoid injuries and to make sure you get the best results. Buuuttt...you know there's a BUT, they've lost a gem of a coach and got replaced with one that is so-so. Don't get me wrong. Maybe because they're new or still getting the hang of things. But if you come in and introduce the exercises to a class without knowing what muscles are targeted by what exercise, or what the exercise is called, perhaps you might still need coaching yourself. And also the class is waiting on queues to get excited and encouraged still during the whole circuit which I don't hear or see from the new coach. Will I go back? Of course! But I'm hoping the coach will step it up and not just walk around but also encourage us as we're sweating and working hard. If the coach isn't excited to be there, it shows through their performance as well! ‍

So much to say about my experience here at BBD. In a few short months I have felt connection with…read morethe other members, the trainers and through the workouts! Several years ago my family went through something very traumatic that left me holding on mentally for dear life. So physically I went downhill and gained a lot of weight. I tried other gyms and other trainers to help me out of my rut over the years. I tried many diets too. Nothing clicked. None of it helped physically AND mentally. It only seemed to help physically which would lead me in a downward spiral mentally after a few short weeks. BBD works with all ages and all athletic abilities. They require you to commit for the long haul. No more fads, no more trying to get skinny. It's about building a new and improved you from the inside out while also seeing physical results that follow. Fred has taught me a whole new way to workout that has given me so much more confidence than I thought possible. My only regret is not finding this place sooner! I cannot wait to see my wins a year from now! One workout at a time!!

BBD is the absolute best if you are looking for a gym that is inclusive of all ages, body types,…read moreand backgrounds. I have trained with trainers Ninette and Fred over the years. They really know their stuff especially when it comes to preventing injury and they work closely with you to modify the work out if you have preexisting injuries. This year I joined Fred's crew and he checked in frequently on my preexisting back and knee issues. We made sure to modify movements like lunges and dead lifts to movements that worked out the same muscle group but didn't aggravate my back and knees. Now that those muscle groups are much stronger I can do much more than I have ever been able to in the gym. The small group training format gives you the feel and attention of a personal trainer but is much more affordable. I moved away 3 years ago and when I came back I was at my heaviest I have ever been. BBD welcomed me back with open arms. I dropped a lot of weight, I feel better than ever, and I can't stop checking myself out in the mirror. I would give BBD 6 stars if I could.
