Trainers near St. Matthews

“This gym sets a completely different standard. The equipment alone puts it in a league of its own—top-tier machines and rare attachments you simply won’t find anywhere else in Louisville. Everything is intentional, and it shows.

The owner is highly involved and clearly invested in the experience, not just running a business. The staff back that up fully—they don’t just look the part, they actually know what they’re doing. You get real guidance from people who understand training, not just surface-level advice.

The environment is just as impressive. Bold, modern, and clean to a level most gyms can’t maintain. You’ve got access to a sauna, cold plunge, infrared sauna, red light therapy, cupping, and SOO much more; which makes recovery just as dialed in as training. Members are respectful, the space is never overcrowded, and it genuinely feels like a private, exclusive facility.

On top of that, the convenience factor is huge. 24/7 access means you train on your schedule, not theirs. The in-house supplement store—with actual discounts—makes it easier to grab what you need there than going anywhere else.

If you’re serious about your health and want everything in one place, this is it. There’s no real competition in Louisville when it comes to a complete, high-level fitness experience.“

“The commitment to excellence is huge, a constant reminder that you don’t know how much you can push yourself until you test yourself. A fun environment very upbeat classes. Recommend anyone who wants to learn new ways of working out to try it out.“

“Alfonso is wonderful! My training is so challenging—in the best way possible—and extremely productive! Best decision I have made for my health!“

“Always there when you need them. Great staff, tons of equipment. One of the largest PF's in the city.“

“Kendrick and his team are very knowledgeable and encouraging. I appreciate the efficiency of the 20 minute full body workouts.“

“I came to Distilled Fitness after struggling with health issues and chronic ankle symptoms. I had not been able to faithfully attend gym classes at our previous gym for 5 or 6 months.

My husband and I started looking for a new gym once I was well enough to go to classes again. We really wanted to find a welcoming gym that had a more convienent location as well as classes at specific times of day and coaches that were able to offer modifications for movements that I wouldn't be able to do. It felt like looking for a unicorn. However, we found exactly those things at Distilled Fitness!

Not only have the coaches at Distilled Fitness helped me modify movements when needed, but they have also helped me grow stronger despite my limitations.

At some gyms, it would be looked down on to need a modification, but I have never once felt looked down on or that I was not welcomed because I needed an alternative. The coaches are well educated and have been quick to have a modification suggestion every time I've needed one.

It's common to come to class and workout alongside others that are at varying levels of ability and have bodies that all look different. Additionally, the classes are typically on the smaller side. This is a huge benefit for beginners to get more focused instruction without feeling called out in front of a large group!

Distilled Fitness is a welcoming place to come just as you are and feel good about moving your body.“

“I have been coming to grit for about a year and a half and think I have finally found my forever gym. The semi private classes are SO fun and unpredictable. They change the format every 12 weeks so that you have a new focus and the workouts use every type of equipment imaginable (dumbbells, weights, barbell, sled, kettle bells, balls, row, ski, bike, bands, and more) so that you are constantly learning and pushing yourself to move in new ways. They have also formed a very fun community and everyone gets to know each other during the workouts in a way that feels very real and not forced.
I have to shout out coach Taylor who does such a wonderful job not only coaching but community building. She really tries to get to know you and talk about your interests, how your week went, how your nutrition is going, as well as helps you during the workouts if you need a modification or if you’re feeling pain in a specific area. On top of that she is so much fun and makes the workouts fly by.
If all that’s not enough, the gym is SO nice and immaculately maintained. All of the equipment is super modern and they literally have everything, including 2.5 lb clips you can add to a dumbbell to go from 20 to 22.5 if you want. I had never seen that in my life and it was so helpful in trying to bump up weight for certain exercises.
Grit has some pretty generous trial offerings so if you’ve thought about coming there is nothing to lose by trying one of the classes. Even if you are a newbie everyone is super welcoming and the coaches will help you. There is nothing to lose or fear and you may find that you’ve stumbled upon a workout you can actually stick to and see results. Give Grit a try!“

“F-45 is by far the best place to workout, the coaches, workouts and F-45 family will help and motivate you to reach your goals,
10 plus stars from me, give it a try!!“

“I can’t recommend Lucas highly enough!

Before I started working with him, I was working out consistently but not seeing the progress I wanted to see.

Since working with Lucas, I’ve more than doubled the weight I can handle in my barbell back squats, I can actually see my triceps now, and for the first time in my life I can bench press more than just the bar (big deal for me as a woman).

His knowledge and empathy make him a fantastic coach for anyone but especially for people like me—busy professionals who love the gym but don’t have the time or knowledge to plan the best program to get on track with our goals efficiently.

Training might feel like an indulgent expense, but I can’t stress enough how instrumental working with Lucas has been for me when it comes to having fun at the gym, making progress, and building a healthier mindset and habits for long-term success!“

“Went once while in town visiting family. They do a good job here. Really cool “shotgun” style studio layout. Shannon our instructor is motivating and attentive, she’s a pro ?“

“I go late so its never really crowded but the place is always clean and the people who work there are always friendly.

As an update since it asked I haven't been in a long time. Started back and go at noon now and while it's busier I was easily able to do everything I wanted. Wasn't over crowded“

“A great place to train. It has a solid, supportive community and a team of coaches who are truly professional and incredibly friendly. The workouts are challenging in the best way, and the environment makes you want to keep coming back. Highly recommended.“

“This training has been so great for both of my kids! Both have grown so much here—not just in athleticism, but also in confidence and mindset. The workouts are fun and challenging, with a strong focus on proper mechanics and foundational skills that directly translate to their sports. It’s been incredible to watch their progress. On top of that, the adult classes are a huge bonus—it’s awesome to be able to get in a great workout myself while they train. Highly recommend for families looking to level up together!“

“Great facility.
Huge variety of equipment
Today was radio for me
In the mornings it is not crowded“

“Our car broke down in lights under Louisville and the staff let us chill in the lobby for several hours while we waited on our family to arrive to come get us. It’s a very good place ran by great people 1000000000 stars“

“I’ve met Silas more than a year ago and since then my results are way better. At the same time I’m spending about twice less time on trainings than I used to. It was 3 trainings a week, now we switched it to 5 (because that’s what I wanted) and he is still very flexible about time we are meeting. He is going above a beyond to accommodate our schedules and even if it’s not possible within a certain day, Silas sending me list of exercise, so I can do it by myself. I could not imagine a better combination of performance and convenience than this guy is performing for me. Thank you!“

“Gym is terrific, David, my trainer, is phenomenal, the gym has everything you need and more. Bruce, the owner, is wonderful! The personal training is more than just working out, it’s checking in during the week; food plans; supplement plans, etc. I couldn’t recommend body and soul more!!!“

“In a world of AI manipulated smoke and mirrors Sol and Amanda keep it real. I knew Sol before he started his wellness journey and can attest the before and after photos of his physical transformation are real and not manipulated in any way. If you want life changing REAL RESULTS contact Sol, he and Amanda can help you achieve your goals!“

“Highly recommend Jeff. I went in already down 100 pounds battling major health issues and in just a few short months I have seen significant results. Small gym setting allows for a anxiety free 1 on 1 workout. Without Jeff I’d still be sitting in a commercial gym parking lot working up the courage to go inside.“

“Been going to Ami for over a year. Results are real. She’s top notch HIGHLY recommend!“

“It's my gym, I like it, it's cheap, I have access to everything and I take a friend every day with my Black car.“

“It’s too bad that Planet Fitness already claimed the “Judgment Free Zone” slogan, because The Training Studio actually embodies that.I was urged by Rob Gentile at KORT Partners (St. Matthews) to start working out here at the beginning of this year. I had seen Rob for a few periods of time since last May when I had a fall off of my horse that injured my spine. He explained that transitioning to an appropriate level of strength training would help me to build off of the foundation that physical therapy had given me and would allow me to keep up my strength instead of losing it after leaving PT again.From the start, there was no judgment. I consulted with Dale, the owner, and he steered me towards personal training with Zach. From my very first time at the studio, I was met at the level I was at. Every single trainer/coach there has been fabulous and I think I’ve now worked with most of them at least a few times. The personal attention you get either in private training sessions OR in any of the groups is unmatched. You will be pushed to your limit, but absolutely not past it. If you can’t do any particular exercise, the coaches will help you do a modified version and build you up until you can. Past injuries and limitations are taken into account always. From someone who had never formally “worked out” before, THIS is the place to be. You’re going to find a new love for fitness, you’re going to make friends in the tight-knit TS community, and you’re going to improve your health and life.I’ve not only gotten stronger physically, but getting up and going to work out here most days has made a noticeable improvement on my mental health as well.I cannot possibly recommend the Training Studio enough. You owe it to yourself to try it out.“

“Went there to hit chest. Place had a lot of equipment and a wide selection of dumbbells up-to 125lbs. There were also some state of the art machines. But the gym floor was dirty!“
