Trainers near Holly Springs

“I like this location’s ease of visiting the gym. The comfort of the equipment and the cleanliness of the place overall.“

“Awesome place to workout. So happy I found CrossFit Angier. Good people, good coaches and lots of class times. Coaches always help to modify workouts for all fitness levels and any injuries. Highly recommend.“

“I joined Ignite Fitness Apex about 3 months ago, and it has been one of the best decisions I’ve made for my health. The gym is clean, well-maintained, and has a great atmosphere that keeps you motivated.

A huge shout-out to my trainer Chase — he is extremely knowledgeable, focused, and always to the point. Every session is structured with a purpose, and he makes sure I’m doing each movement correctly while pushing me just enough to improve without overdoing it.

The results speak for themselves. In just 3 months, my A1C dropped from 2 points which is a massive improvement and something I honestly didn’t think I could achieve this quickly. Chase not only focuses on workouts but also gives practical guidance that actually works in real life.

If you’re serious about improving your health, managing diabetes, or just getting stronger the right way, I highly recommend Ignite Fitness Apex and Chase. This is not a generic training experience—it’s personalized, effective, and results-driven.

“I joined Peak City Gym about two months ago. Before that, I worked out at home but struggled to stay consistent and make real progress. Training in a group setting has made a big difference, and I genuinely look forward to coming in, even with a hectic work schedule. I have already seen noticeable improvements in my strength. The exercise design is excellent, and the trainers, Keegan, Brandon, Shane, and Jessica, are very welcoming, supportive, and motivating.“

“I never did gym workouts before, and I am 35. I hired Core Results Cary to help me figure out what I was even doing. Jon K was my personal trainer for 6 months and was a fantastic experience.

He was very thoughtful and engaging in talking me through each workout, planning in 4 week segments. But he was also very flexible responding to what he learned in terms of how my body responded. My goal was to gain confidence to be able to go to a gym, and Jon K helped me with that!

disclaimer: they do offer a free t-shirt or bottle for a 5 star review, and glad to take them up on that, but my experience was worth the 5 stars“

“I love this gym! Not only are the coaches incredibly friendly and knowledgeable, but the people who attend classes are so warm and welcoming. I was hooked after my first class! Definitely recommend it!“

“Recently joined. The whole experience has been great! The workouts are just what I was looking for and all the coaches have been nice and motivating. Highly recommend.“

“I have been coming to Pilates the Form for almost a year now, and I can honestly say it has been one of the best investments I’ve ever made for my health.

Expert Guidance & Personalization
I deal with several ongoing musculoskeletal issues, which can make exercising feel daunting. However, the team here is incredible at modifying every workout to meet my body where it is that day. I work with Dawn regularly—who is phenomenal—but I’ve also had sessions with most of the instructors at the studio. Every single one of them is kind, supportive, and deeply knowledgeable.

Focus on Safety and Form
What sets this studio apart is their philosophy:

Zero Pressure: They never push you into movements you aren't ready for.

Technical Precision: There is an intense focus on proper form, which has been vital in helping me avoid further injury.

In fact, my Physical Therapist has noticed a significant improvement in my form during our sessions. He’s been so impressed that he actively encourages me to keep working with the studio, viewing it as a seamless extension of my physical therapy.

The Studio Environment
The space itself is a breath of fresh air. It is:

Calming and Clean: A beautifully maintained environment that puts you at ease the moment you walk in.

Fully Equipped: They have all the proper, high-quality equipment needed for a professional workout.

Intimate: The studio is designed for a small number of people at a time, ensuring that the instructors can provide personalized focus to every client.

If you are looking for a place that prioritizes your long-term wellness and understands the nuances of the human body, I cannot recommend Pilates the Form highly enough!“

“Found this gym while looking for a place to get my son into BJJ. This place is a treasure! Best deal on kids martial arts around, instructors are top notch, and my son loves it!
I joined the gym side to workout out while my son is doing his class, and what a great idea. It may seem imposing at first, but it is a clean, welcoming environment. There is plenty of space and it's rarely full. Those that are there, are there to work and get better. I've never really been part of a gym like this before, but I really like it. The staff greet you each time you enter and wish you well when you leave. Kosta is awesome and will always take the time to chat with you.
Can't recommend this place enough.“

“Finally taking the time to write a review for Eric’s personal training and want to say that he really changed my life by the technically nuanced and personally kind way that he trained me! I think I only trained with him for a few months, but the lessons I learned during that time, made a forever impact in my life… things like nutrition facts/suggestions, how much to eat and when, the knowledge that I am strong and that when it comes to physical fitness to just keep going when something feels hard, to rest when needed and to get back to it, to not judge myself or feel bad when I can’t do something right away or if I can’t do it perfectly right away. I started ballet when I was very young and had great teachers and have had amazing mentors, but the lessons Eric taught me really were timely and made sense of principles that maybe I’d heard or learned in different settings, but in the way he trains, he really was able to get certain concepts through to me that I didn’t fully grasp before. He has a methodical, practical, professional, intelligent and again, kind way. I really like to understand why I’m doing things and how the body works and he answered all my questions and also moved me along to getting more to movement, while still answering my questions. I’ve trained in a few different styles of dance in addition to ballet, was a dance major in college and am a licensed massage therapist, so I knew a lot going into training and the fact that I learned more and that Eric also really appreciated and respected what I did know and was willing to work with me really meant and means so much. Thanks, Eric.

“I love this gym!! I started going in April after undergoing major surgery in January I have more surgery in July and needed to really gain my strength and stamina From the time I made my first phone call to inquire I spoke with Panteal and was so excited. She just drew me in. Logan is the sweetest and caring beautiful person. Her smile greets you when you walk in. Carolee came up with an exercise regimen for me and makes me feel so encouraged and motivated. I just love you guys and this gym!! Wanda“

“Overall, a good fitness center while understanding that many Lifetime's have a lot more amenities such as courts, food, salon, etc. The monthly membership price at this facility is high and might have some issues once another fitness center opens in Apex later this year. I will be checking both facilities out and price will be a factor.“

“Friendly staff. Especially Caleb at the front desk. They are very knowledgeable and make you feel comfortable.“

“My son has been a part of TPA for 2 years now. He started out doing baseball camps, now does year round Sports Performance Training as well as play for the League. The coaches and staff are truly AMAZING at this facility. The way they help build confidence in these young athletes is inspiring to watch. They work one on one with athletes whether is private lessons, workshops, programs, etc. they really believe in these kids and want them to succeed. Coach Bo and the rest of the staff has become like family to us and we are forever grateful for TPA.“

“I was in Durham for my brother’s wedding this weekend and found One Fitness through the MINDBODY app. Great classes and instructors, friendly staff, seemed like a great community and reasonable drop in class rates. Some members made me feel very welcome. I’m definitely coming back for a workout the next time I’m in Durham!“

“Sandra is an amazing motivator and really gets to know her clients needs and goals and provides the assistance to help them get there! Plus she's a delight to be around, makes working out fun as she's so engaging and fun! You for sure will get the positive encouragement to keep going!“

“I really enjoy this gym, but agree with the other posters that, for the price ($199/month), the towels are gross, the mats and much of the equipment is very used and not clean, and the general cleanliness of the place is...not. There is dirt and dust and grime everywhere, and I rarely see either staff or customers wiping down equipment after use. The rec pool is a beautifully warm temperature, but the water is often very, very cloudy, which is kind of gross.

Despite all of this, I still enjoy working out here, but always take a really long shower as soon as I get home so that I can wash any cooties away.

The only other feedback I have is that there are very few evening classes and almost no classes starting after 6 pm.“
