Edgar R.

I've been going to this LA fitness for at least 7 years now, and it unfortunately has gone down in the last several months. Pros: It doesn't get as packed as other gyms. Their free-weight section is larger than other gyms in the area. Cons: There are several machines that have been broken for a couple of months now and have not been fixed. The sauna door in the mens locker-room doesn't fully close. They also removed the rubber floor piece from the sauna, but they don't bother to clean the exposed floor (picture attached). The staff doesn't clean out the mens lockers. There have been a pile of clothes in one specific locker for at least 2-3 months. There are also overflowing trashcans and dirty mirrors. I hope they are just understaffed and can fix their issues soon. I will be looking for other gym options.

Great expansive gym with most equipment you'd need to get those gains! Staff is friendly and helpful, place is always clean and usually not too packed! Would recommend!!

Progress since starting at LA Fitness
Micky D.

I tried out more than 5 gyms before deciding on this one. LA Fitness on Anderson wasn't only a good choice, but the BEST choice. As a woman, finding a quality & comfortable gym can be a challenge. Even after 2 months of coming to this gym, I know I made the right choice for many reasons: 1. Highest level of customer service. - Don (A REAL PERSON not automated system) reached out to make sure I had the opportunity to use my free pass and experience the gym. Out of all the gyms I trialed, Don was the only gym rep that followed up and directly obtained feedback to make sure I had a good experience. He wasn't pushy or over sales-y, and did a great job of making me feel welcome. - Josh (A REAL PERSON not automated system) followed up and made sure to schedule a time to walk through my goals. He gave me a lot of insight, motivation, and guidance to set me on the right path towards progress. Some trainers try to force their goals on you, but Josh did an amazing job listening to me and being supportive. - Bri (an amazing trainer) personally introduced herself and welcomed me to the gym. Her words of encouragement gave me extra motivation. She also ensured me to come to her if I ever have issues or feel uncomfortable in the gym, which gave me additional reassurance that the gym takes their client experience very seriously. 2. High level of cleanliness and attention to detail. - It's clear this gym prioritizes the client experience by keeping the space clean & as fresh as possible. It feels & smells clean. I'm not a person that likes that 'old school' gritty, dingy gym environment. I appreciate how well and how often this gym is maintained. - Environment temperature. The gym temp is kept a constant cool temperature. Texas gets really hot and some gyms don't handle that heat well, but even during the busiest hours, this gym still keeps a cool regulated (and non-humid) environment. 3. Wide variety of Equipment - Large quantity of cardio equipment so I never have to wait for a machine - A variety of weight machines, you'll definitely find what you're looking for - A good section of free weights 4. Has all my needed amenities - These were other non-negotiables I looked for: pool, hot tub, sauna, basketball court Since starting at this gym & working with this team, I've already dropped over 4% BF & gained 3lb of muscle. Overall, 10/10 experience so far. Highly recommend.

I also like the layout and the overall vibe. That said, for a Gold's Gym, I expected a little more. It can get pretty crowded, and some of the equipment can be hard to get on during peak hours. Nothing bad about the gym at all, it's a perfectly good place to work out. I just don't think it lives up to the hype compared to some of the other gyms in Austin. Overall, decent gym, just nothing that blew me away.

Only real review you'll read about this gym. Staff is very friendly as are all the members from…read morewhat I've experienced. The issue with this Gold's is that all of the equipment is obtuse. Everything seems to be some science based overly complicated mechanism that favors looking good on camera for influencers, but actually compromises a proper lift. Everything is mechanically assisted and strange. There is no normal leg press or bench press. The bench bars are too thin and not ideal for flat bench press. They do have some normal cable systems, however all the attachments are also obtuse. The bars are made of a hard rubber that makes it near impossible to wrap hand straps around them. I appreciate the specialty things to an extent, but give us normal equipment as a base. Things that allow you to focus on your own form and mind to muscle connection. Let's not reinvent the wheel. The facilities are awesome and clean, and I think for an inexperienced lifter or a content creator this is a great place to work out.

Provided a review approx 8 or so month ago at the Anderson Mill location showing the facilities…read moreunsanitary men's locker rooms and negligent staff. In this locations defense, the manager at this location did reach out eventually and have a conversation with me - they also hired some new staff members for the early morning 5AM shift that are more attentive and can be seen cleaning, however, issues unfortunately remain at this location that warrant a follow up. Having been to at least 10 different PF locations around Austin' and the greater surrounding area I can unequivocally state that this location remains to be the worst that I frequent which is unfortunate considering this Anderson Mill is the one closest in proximity to my 9-5 I'm writing this review so that additional resources can be put into the Anderson Mill location in order to remedy the ONGOING (several months) issues with the showers. This location has gone weeks with multiple showers being out of order due to an ongoing and unresolved leak. This means for those of us that shower after our workout prior to heading into our jobs we either had to wait in a line of people before using facilities (or in my case) have to cut my gym session short 10-15min in order to be the first in the shower to avoid congestion. Fast forward several weeks EVERY shower is now non-functional due to that same leak creating mold This poses an even greater inconvenience as now members have NO ability to shower after their workouts before heading into work. Not sure what can be done to address this but it's made working out at this location extremely cumbersome - the signs posted to the now closed off showers clearly state "BEING REMEDIED FOR MOLD". My presumption based on this locations history is that this leak and mold issue will likely NOT be fixed expeditiously - not being able to shower prior to my work shift after sweating is not ideal. I am now having to look at Golds Gym within the same proximity so that I can continue my morning workout schedule as I require shower facilities after working out prior to heading into work - a major inconvenience considering I've been a member of PF for over a decade at this point with this gym being my primary. Not stoked about having to carry/pay for 2 gym memberships nor am I even sure Gold's Gym offers a month to month option with no contract; at this point, however, I am not sure I have any other option in the interim.

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.

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.

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!

Alright, I suppose it's about time for me to write this review. I've been going to Marlow's Fitness…read moresince January 20th. I know that exact date because that was the date I read the Yelp reviews and texted a couple of friends and held my breath and jumped in this "Marlow's Movement" thing whole hog. It was... painful. It many ways. Physically of course with the weight lifting and whatnot. But also emotionally. It's bizarrely difficult to go from a generally sedentary lifestyle to something that requires five days a week and twice on Saturdays. Not. Joking. It's like slipping into someone else's life. It's not bad -- just uncomfortable. His program uses a couple of things to get you to show up and keep going. 1. Accountability: You're accountable to your team and to the program. Your participation, steps, team, weight goals, etc are all being tracked through your fitbit and myfitnesspal. 2. A reward system: If your team or you "win" the program, then you go on an all expenses paid trip to Cancun. You stay at an all-inclusive resort with the other winners. 3. Community: Since all classes are small (14 peopleish) you get to know everyone else in the movement. You become this kind of "we're all in this together" family. 4. Uncomplicated Workouts: 30 minutes of whatever cardio you prefer and 30 minutes of 45 second intervals of weights/body weight exercises. Also you'll participate in some external activities - 5Ks, Saturday morning walks, a scavenger hunt. I lost weight and continue to go to class, building my muscle, getting in better shape and it's legitimately the first time I've been able to keep it off and continue to workout. I mean, I love the ease of crash diets but just feels better.
