What a cool body building gym. Got to try out this place as I was competing in the area. Front desk…read morewas super welcoming and kind, gave me a quick tour of the place. No frills here. Machines are older, everyone that lifts here is yolked, and there's not a whole ton of space. I felt a bit awkward trying to work in with dumbells on the side. But, really cool gym!!

We pulled up in Big Bros navy blue Honda Element and arrived in a nondescript strip mall, where the…read moreMuscle Factory was waiting. I get inspired by these sort of body building gyms, as they are such a nice break from the CorePowers and Equinoxes of the world that I normally frequent... I'm basic af, I know. All the plates are iron, industrial fans cooling the place, huge mirrors everywhere, it's open 24 hours, machines you won't see anywhere else, and patrons are about their business and just EATING weights. I was probably the smallest person in here by 80 lbs, but they couldn't have been more welcoming. I paid a $20 day pass twice, and what I loved was they didn't try to sell me on joining the gym. I'm so sick of being upsold in literally every other area of my life. Something about handing that crispy $20 bill, signing a waiver I didn't read, and being able to have free reign of the gym was so refreshing. You go to a 24 Hour Fitness and get a day pass, it will take you 20 minutes of small talk and having to fake like you're considering joining before you can get to working out. 3 days later, my quads are STILL sore from one of those gnarly machines that I have never seen before, and will likely never see again. Sore in a good way though... THANK YOU MUSCLE FACTORY I LOVE Y'ALL! IG @jnov_ Tiktok @jnov_reviews

4.75 stars. I wish I had got to train here for a longer period of time. Essentially, I got six…read moremonths and during that time period, Beejay Brooks (my trainer) got me into pretty decent shape from a guy who looks like he's written 1620 Yelp reviews. Give that man a hand! That was some hard ass work. Speaking of work, Beejay had an excellent eye for determining whether you were at peak levels or whether you needed a day with a bit less intensity. He definitely gave a lot of attention to your macros and diet (far more than anyone I've worked with in the past). He's very no nonsense and that's probably not for everyone. If you aren't going to put in the hard work to manage your diet, you will fail and he will let you know it. But if you put in the work, you'd be very hard pressed to find a better trainer in San Antonio (I did work with some of the other trainers at Hasfit and I got to say they were all stellar). Overall, you are going to have to spend some coin (I was at just under $500/month) but when you start seeing the results of that spent money, you aren't going to miss it. You're going to be thankful for the transformative experience as you become fitter and healthier.

I joined Hasfit during a work trip to San Antonio. I was in the area for 12-days and worked out…read morewith a trainer (Tyler) for eight of those days. Over the course of the trip, living and eating in a hotel, I gained about three pounds of muscle and lost about three percent body fat. As a result, I'm super happy with my experience at the gym and the progress I made in such a short period of time. I think this gym is great for anyone just beginning in the gym to more advanced athletes, as so long you are willing to put in the work. :)

Is it possible to love a gym THIS much? When it's a place like Alio Fitness Club with trainers…read morelike Danny and Sam, abso-freaking-lutely. Let me explain why Alio is so different. At Gold's Gym, I meandered from machine to machine, half-heartedly gave the treadmill a go and looked over at the free weights section like it was the boss fight that I wasn't leveled up enough to attempt. I would lose a pound here and there but it was all just so.. boring. Alio doesn't do boring. Every day there's a new circuit that works a different set of muscles than the previous day. Add in the music and lighting and Alio makes Gold's look like the Wal-Mart of gyms. Danny and Sam are amazing trainers. Don't know what the heck a sumo squat pulse is? They're there to demonstrate and watch your form to prevent tweaks. Not sure what weight you should use for a single arm kettlebell swing? They're there to help you figure out what'll work for you. On the other end, if you're someone who loves a challenge, they are ready (and willing!) to make a circuit harder for you like adding in extra cardio and/or going up on the weights/reps. The best part of Alio Fitness Club? Results! I've personally witnessed many people get in shape here ranging from people whose goal was weight loss to others who put on serious muscle, it's always inspiring. As for myself, Alio has turned me into quite the flex-addict.. If you want gym results but dread the monotony of #gymlife, try out Alio Fitness Club!

What I don't like about regular gyms is that there is no ambiance, everyone is minding their own business. Not ALIO...

Both Danny and Sam are amazing trainers that will keep you motivated not only with the work outs abut also with your diet and health. I really recommend this place!

I've always been a little…read morescared of strength training with weights because I've seen people get injured because they don't use the right form/technique. However, Jean gives me the confidence I need to incorporate strength training into my weekly workouts. He gives excellent guidance and truly wants you to succeed. He doesn't give you a one size fits all approach to fitness. Rather, he finds out what your goals are, takes into consideration your age, health concerns and capabilities and tailors a workout program that best suits your needs. It's like getting a dedicated, motivational personal trainer in a small group setting. There's nothing like it! Highly recommend reaching out to Jean Carlos at Total Body Training to find out what he can do to help you reach your fitness goals. You won't regret it.

At the beginning of this year, I made a goal to get fit and feel great. It wasn't until I joined…read moreTotal Body Training and Jean Carlos, that I kept that promise to myself. I decided a gym membership didn't give me the push that I needed to improve my fitness. I was never going to get anywhere by pedaling on a recumbent bike watching food network and travel channel (however fantastic that sounds). Over the past 4-5 months with high intensity interval training, I've seen very noticeable improvements in my strength and stamina. Every training session is challenging, different, and fun. Jean Carlos is an extremely cool, supportive, knowledgeable, personable, and motivating personal trainer. He's there to keep you on track and to hold you accountable. It's evident that deep down he's actually interested in your improvement as a person and wants to be a part of that journey. In addition to Jean Carlos himself, it's awesome working out alongside other folks in the community that aspire to get healthier too. After stressful days at the office, his classes are the highlight of my day. I highly recommend you give Total Body Training a try!

Before it started, she asked the participants about their background and experience with yoga so she could adjust accordingly if needed.

I'm no athlete, yet Kenny manages to work with my limited capabilities to get me stronger and more flexible. After little more than 8 weeks (despite me ignoring diet or aerobic exercise discipline), I managed to lose over 4% body fat working out three times a week with Kenny! I also lost over 2 inches on my hips-- and I'm 57! Now I am encouraged to keep going, to lose the weight I've gained since menopause, and to keep getting stronger and get my full range of motion back. With Kenny's training and expertise I get to benefit from diet recommendations (gum had carbs, who knew?) and yes, even aerobic exercise. I'm going to try jump roping with one that has a counter in the handle. I'm looking forward to being leaner and fitter in 2019.

The sessions were difficult since I hadn't worked out in a few years, but reinforced my thoughts that I needed to get back to the gym and I signed up for a year's worth of their small group training. I love the small class size and while the classes are tough, my body feels better, is definitely toning up and I sleep better too. I love the individual attention the small group classes allow and how they focus on different muscle groups each day. Every trainer I've worked with leading the classes has been excellent....encouraging and pushing me to increase my strength but modifying exercises when needed to avoid injury. I've just completed 2 months at Fit Therapy of Texas and am so happy I joined!

It's definitely making me reconsider our membership.

This is absolutely the worst gym in San Antonio. Don't sign up here. Don't even bother using this…read morelocation. I'm not sure what the company was thinking when they structured this gym. The layout is horrible. This place is always packed so be prepared to wait for everything. At least 6 machines are broken and they've had out of service signs on them for too long. Two cable machines and like 3-4 machines. It's wild. But if you know gym equipment you know why... they for whatever reason decided to be the only LA in town that uses the absolute worst cost cutting machines: Star Trac. If you want private restrooms guess what? Oh yeah the two in the back of the building are locked always with service signs on them as well. I can't make this up. The GMs days are definitely numbered because this type of unkept will lead to him getting let go. You hate to hear it but this is the honest truth.
