What a workout! I had my first HEAT total body - strength and stability workout with Billy and felt…read moregood and burned a number of calories to boot. I was a little apprehensive about boot camp workouts before coming here but I can see how effective they are as you keep moving during these workouts and get some cardio conditioning too. Good form is encouraged and the instructor goes from station to station to motivate and to help with modifications. 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.

I loved the no nonsense workout routine at HEAT. It's a no frills focused bootcamp style workout…read more Both instructors I've experienced were superb at helping modify and focus on getting a good workout in rather than doing moves without efficacy. My Saturday session was quite full but Thursday was only 6 of us. The group varied in experience and intensity so you never felt left behind and always had someone to observe and feel inspired by.

I was just about done with trainers when I found Leila. I was so tired of the typical. I just…read moreneeded three things from my trainer: energy, experience with the body and compatibility. Energy because...ok, keeping me motivated is difficult. Experience because a trainer must understand the body to get the most from a workout & compatibility because when I don't want to move, my trainer knows how to encourage and when I can't move, my trainer knows the difference- that is crucial. Little did I know at the outset Leila would bring it all around. Even better than I imagined. Embracing my flaws and focusing me on my goals. She exudes calm while guiding toward real progress. As I worked with Leila, I quickly realized she was multi-faceted. She could be a drill Sargent when my body called for it, an Empowering voice when my body needed more grace, and a freaking Therapist when I had to vent during a workout. The end result for me, working with Leila, is a spirit raised in energy and a body toned over 50! Leila you are a workout guru and I recommend everyone I know, looking for a real trainer, to you. You're excellent, my Sistah!

The studio is beautifully lit by the sun during morning classes and is very high energy. The music selection is great and each station is challenging but doable regardless of your fitness level.

Haus of B is truly one of the best Pilates studios I've experienced. My journey started when I was…read moreintroduced to one of their off-site classes at Soho House. Even with just a mat setup at the club's venue, I got an incredible workout, and that experience led me to start attending drop-in classes regularly, then upgraded to the membership. I noticed results very quickly, even after only a few classes. What stood out most was that I got both the great energy from instructors and studio design as well as the physical results from both the mat and Pilates classes. I've genuinely become hooked on Pilates, and I really appreciate Haus of B's holistic approach to wellness. From the Recovery Room with red light therapy and infrared sauna, to the variety of classes, sound bath events, booking upgrades with wellness products, and even massage offerings, this is the pilates studio of your dreams!

I unfortunately got extremely sick so I can't called in the 24 hour window and paid the 20.00. I have contacted them three times to tell them the situation and get my 45.00 credit as I don't live there and will not return for years. Never got a response once. Wow what an amazing place that they have no customer service or don't care to respond. They are also way over priced. There is no reformer that is worth 65.00 shame on the avoid.

THE BIG: Located in the Village at Westlake shopping center. Standalone gym with decent equipment…read more Plenty of parking inside the lot out front. THE BLACK AND WHITE: I came here once when my home gym didn't have any golds fit classes and Westlake had a golds fit class that fit into my schedule. Getting there is a bit of a trek for me since I live on the east side. Checking in is a breeze, amenities are what you typically find at a golds gym however this one does seem a bit outdated. There is a GGX, Golds fit, Golds burn, and the rest of the golds classes available as long as you sing up beforehand. Bathrooms are alright, there used to be a pool here but I believe all of pools were closed down after covid. THE FINAL BAMBOO: Overall, one of the more outdated golds gym in the Austin area. Good community and decent weight/equipment options.

It has been a while since I have visited this location as it is somewhat out of the way for me. I had work appointment nearby, which made very convenient to visit. The attraction is that it is one of the nicer older Gold's gyms (not like the new state-of-the-art Gold's gym on Burnet Road). The gym has ample cardio machines, resistance equipment, fitness classes and cross-fit room. I was at the Westlake location mainly for a fitness class and to work out on the machines. I especially like that the location is clean especially the women showers and restroom. In addition, it is a fairly large gym with extended hours (for the early birds and the late-night folks): Monday-Friday 5:00 AM - 11:00 PM Saturday 7:00 AM - 9:00 PM Sunday 7:00 AM - 9:00 PM Gold's Gym Westlake front desk staff were cordial and helpful during my visit. When I am in that part of the city, I will consider stopping by again.

There is nothing that puts you into a Zen state like doing Matt Pilates. So off I went to LA…read moreFitness - South Lamar as a part of my New Year's Eve fitness regiment. For those who may not be familiar with Matt Pilates, it is a low-impact, floor-based exercise using the equivalent of a Yoga matt. It focuses on core strength, posture, flexibility, and controlled breathing. Matt Pilates differs from Reformer Pilates, which uses spring-loaded machines aka as reformers. Matt Pilates relies on your body weight and gravity for resistance. Most big box gyms offers Matt pilates, whereas Reformer Pilates usually occur at Pilates studios or higher end gym locations. A Pilates Reformer can easily cost $200-$250+ per month. Many movie stars like Gwenth Paltrow and Dakota Johnson swear by Reformer Pilates. I have only done a trial membership with Reformer Pilates. Matt Pilates is very affordable and usually included in your gym membership, making it cost-effective. After my Matt Pilates class I was so Zen, I felt like taking a nap. However, after hitting the ignition key, I left my Zen state.

Not sure why it's so hard to fix things. The cable machine has been broken well over 50 days. And counting. Also, the people who open the club on the weekends are consistently late. In fact, I'm writing this on the parking lot waiting for the gym to open - should have opened 10 minutes ago. A few weeks ago someone strolled in around 8:17 when it should have opened at 8. This started out so promising. What happened?
