    Rafael is very responsive with texts
    Eric B.

    Great place for a person looking for specialized equipment for maximum efficiency. I found this place looking for a gym with sprints on an Air-dyne (similar to a Rogue Echo, assault airBike) and dead lifts with a hex bar (trap bar). Rafael has this equipment and more including kettle bells, a versaclimber, a rower, a SkiErg...I will attach pictures in case you are looking for something specific. Rafael is very responsive by text and email for personal training, both for changing schedules and what you want to work on day to day and week to week. I recommend that you check him out to see if it is a good fit for you. Edit: 4 months later, still happy with my decision to make training a habit. Three things that I wanted to add to give you a flavor of the gym. 1. Rafael is not a "bro science" guy. In that I mean you can practice and discuss multiple training philosophies with him, and come to what works best for you. Then if something changes, he will help you make the adjustments. 2. Personal training helps with important details. We worked around a neck injury and he helped me correct technique issues that prevented future injuries and lost time. These are things that I never knew about in the past working out on my own. 3. I have seen great results with only 1 semi private session per week. That and I never get so sore that I cannot function the next day. Hope that additional info helps you all.

    First free session done at Elite 713!

    TBH I much rather do cardio outside than be in a gym especially because I feel like I dont belong…read more HOWEVER, trainer MARIA has been a GEM!! She's listens, has made me feel confident using the machines, and doesn't baby me when I struggle to finish a set. She's definitely a KEEPER! Corbin, the other trainers, and staff are pretty awesome as well! I can't wait until sauna is up and going and all the new additions APEX has planned

    I came across commentary from both a trainer at this gym as well as the person running the social…read moremedia for this gym stating that people in larger bodies are "not normal" and not welcome. Whether that was said directly to someone or publicly, the message is the same: exclusion. When pushed on it, the owner or whoever runs the social media for this gym, doubled down and continued to disrespect someone just because they are big. Let's be clear--many people in bigger bodies come to gyms because they're working toward better health. That kind of rhetoric doesn't motivate anyone. It reinforces shame, discourages beginners, and creates an environment where people feel watched, judged, and unwelcome before they even walk through the door. Everyone deserves access to a space where they can move their body without being dehumanized or made to feel like a problem that shouldn't exist. Until there's accountability and a clear shift in how people are treated, I wouldn't feel comfortable recommending this gym to anyone--especially those who are just starting their fitness journey. If you're already ripped and skinny, you may be welcome, but that type of "generosity" is double edged the second you don't fit their ideal. smh

    I really enjoyed working out here but I'm trying to cancel my membership because I'm moving and…read morethey are making it impossible. I've spoken to three different front desk associates. The first one said to come during regular hours. I understood the first person because I had went late at night. I went in today at around 10:15 A.M. and a different associate requested I took a seat and waited for the GM and I just told her I'd work out and speak to him after. I finished my work out at roughly 11:45 and went back to speak to the front desk lady. She proceeded to ask for my name and phone number because he would be back in an hour. I told her I'd already waited longer than an hour and if she could just cancel my membership. She said no because I have to do it in person AND schedule a time to meet. What is this a business meeting?! Y'all can call me and cancel my membership I'm not driving from the woodlands to cancel my membership again this is ridiculous.

    I was excited to join this gym, Isabel gave me a tour of the place and even offered me a pass so I…read morecould try it out. Unfortunately the operations manager was very rude and unhelpful. I wasn't aware the kids club had a daily fee, and when I mentioned that she dismissed me and didn't even ask if I wanted to make a payment for the day. I would've paid it but she didn't even give me the option.

    This is by far the worse front desk service of all LA Fitness in all Houston area locations, this…read morepertains primarily to the morning service as this is the time I visit. The service for the past 9 months has been non-existent. For the existing LA members let you facility know about the service so that the establishment can fix the situation. The service here has NO "acknowledgement", NO "have a good workout", NO eye contact, NO "Good Morning" NO INTERACTION whatsoever. Putting your scanner on the counter, continue to watch social media and not acknowledging the member is unacceptable. Front desk is the face of the company, first interaction with their members. I have brought this up to the facility twice and no clear outcome that is will fix the situation not with me personally but for this location. This issue was brought up six months ago and was addressed, it was a tad bit better for one week and back to the normal rude behavior. This comes down to the management team, listen to the members, bring up the issue, have warning and consequences and address the problem as needed. Domyour due diligence, check cameras, ask your morning members, or even ask corporate to do a survey. Once in a while the behavior is tolerable, as people we all have our own personal issues but nine months of the repetitive behavior is just not right. Think - what position is csr front desk? Happy smiling, contact service, fake it even if you have to smile service. I'm sure LA Fitness didn't hire someone to play on the phone during the shift to bring this attitude. Well, to be honest, local mgmt did address the issues, they pointed out to the intended front desk that I was the person to address this issue. That person now knows who is complaining and my service from the front Desk is solved but they does not do justice for the other members of the facility, I have nothing personal with this person and nothing against that person. If I was managing the facility I would have done better than treat this as an isolated incident. As very recent changes has seen that I am not the source of the problem but I am trying to do a service to the company. Anyways I have send in my cancellation mail, I will not be coming to this particular gym. On a bright side, As overall LA Fitness is pretty good, it was just this particular gym that bothers me a little, I am contemplating about canceling still because as a whole most All LA fitness facilities are satisfactory. Best regards to all
