Trainers in Austin

“I had such a great experience at Evolve! I only planned to work with a trainer for a month to get back into strength training, and Caroline was amazing. She tailored every workout to my goals while also teaching me exercises I’d feel confident doing on my own at another gym after our sessions ended. Even after a month, I feel significantly stronger and so much more confident in the gym!

Chris was also great to work with and he made the onboarding process easy and took time to understand my goals from the start. Both Chris and Caroline were wonderful to work with and I couldn’t have asked for a better experience!“

“Eric is absolutely wonderful- he has such an impressive combination of caring, competence and collaboration! He has a sincere interest in helping his clients become healthier and more flexible. He’s brilliant at assessing and prescribing an exercise program to build foundational stability and range of motion.Eric is also a genuine pleasure to work with!“

“Joining Heavy Mettle in June 2025 was one of the best decisions I've ever made. I've always hated working out with a passion - I've dreaded it my entire adult life. Heavy Mettle changed that! I love the atmosphere so much - everyone is so kind, friendly, and helpful. I train with Kevin and he's great - super consistent, helpful, funny, and flexible. The other trainers are all awesome, too. I look forward to my sessions during the week because I know I'll spend the hour laughing and also getting my butt kicked. I'd recommend it to anyone regardless of fitness level. Thanks to Matt for building such a great place!“

“The treatment I received at 512 Physical Therapy and Golf Performance Center performed by Bobby O'Dell was top notch. Bobby is professional, personable and highly trained. He offers a wide variety of treatment including many different stretches and exercises to reach specific areas, plus dry needling and ultrasound. I was referred to Bobby by a golfing buddy and I highly recommend him to anyone looking for therapy or golf fitness“

“Vilita is the best mix of encouraging and supportive!! In the year plus we’ve been training with her, I’ve gone from dreading the gym to craving my workout time and from lower back pain to feeling strong for the first time in my life. Vilita is really good at pushing us so we feel challenged and get the most out of each workout. I’m so happy we invested in ASF, which is really such a welcoming place for everyone - not intimidating, like other gyms. Highly recommend!!“

“This gym is seriously the best! Best community best workouts they will get you shredded and you will meet great people during it“

“I’m so thankful I joined Embody in April! I’ve wanted to start strength training for a while, but gyms intimidated me. I’d never lifted anything heavier than a 10 pound weight and wasn’t sure what proper form looked like. Now my sessions with Lina are one of the things I look forward to most in my week! I’ve learned so much and gotten stronger in what feels like a short period of time- thank you so much Lina! Embody is an accepting and encouraging environment that meets you where you are. Super thankful to be here!“

“I’m a friend of Simon’s and had been dealing with hip and groin issues after getting back into martial arts. While I had never worked with Simon directly, I’d seen how much he’s helped others. I told him about my issues, and he quickly responded with videos he had made that directly addressed the problems I was experiencing. They were exactly what I needed. He accurately pinpointed the movements that would relieve my groin pain all from just one phone call. I’m feeling much better now. Thanks, Simon!!! Highly recommend!!!“

“Gameday is absolutely AWESOME! This is a olympic lifters paradise, deadlift stations, oly platforms, racks, calibrated plates and more! I was visiting Austin and wanted to drop in, the process was super easy and the manager was super friendly. Its a large space so you have plenty of room and just every detail is thought of. Will be back anytime I come back to Austin, wish I had a Gameday where I lived!“

“I came across functional fitness patterns after doing some research on where I can send patients as a good resource for learning good movement patterns. I went today for an assessment myself for the first time. It was a great experience overall! I love their approach as far as addressing the foundational pillars of movement. I had my posture and movement looked at today and was shown the method they use to correct any problems. Highly recommend for anyone in Austin looking for more posture correction or pain relief beyond traditional physical therapy and someone who movement!!“

“It took me trying five different gyms in Austin before I found and stuck with Lumos! Everyone was extremely welcoming from day one. The coaches are the most observant and thorough coaches I’ve ever had, and the programming is challenging but scalable. I came in with a back injury and knee pain but was able to jump right in because the coaches listened to me and helped me modify. I love all of the social opportunities, like the question of the day and the various social committee events. I have found my new community in Austin and I’m extremely grateful!“

“I trained here for three years, and I genuinely think it changed my life. I walked in with no workout routine, no real history of consistency, and honestly not much confidence that I'd stick with it. What I found was a small, personal training gym that didn't try to fit me into a mold. The client base is genuinely diverse, from total beginners like I was to more advanced athletes, and the trainers meet everyone where they are. They took the time to understand my starting point, my goals, and built from there. The trainers push you past what you think you're capable of, which is the only way you actually see results. When life got chaotic and I needed to shuffle sessions around, they worked with me. When I had nutrition questions, they had real answers. And the accountability kept me showing up even on the days I really didn't want to. Shoutout to Nick, who is sending me home with a fully customized at-home plan as I transition out. That's not something you expect, and it means a lot. This isn't a $30 a month gym membership, and it shouldn't be. I used to joke that I could probably lease a BMW for what I spend here each month, but I'd rather invest in myself. Now that I'm in my 40s, keeping my body strong is the only thing I'll never regret spending money on. If we weren't relocating, I'd still be here. If you think you're too busy or don't think you can stay consistent, that's exactly why you should try this place.“

“wow altogether speechless and profoundly grateful to have found him! it is such a gift to feel able, mobile, agile and pain free in one’s body. Deeply grateful. My body was so contracted for weeks and after just one session I feel like it’s possible to be as active and I used to be and have the range of motion I used to. Highly recommend!! thank you thank you“

“I have been training with Christian for just 3 months, and I couldn't be happier with the results! I’ve gained 6 lbs of muscle and lost 6 lbs of fat during this time, which is a testament to his incredible training methods and personalized approach.

Christian is not only knowledgeable but also very motivating. Each session is challenging yet enjoyable, and I genuinely look forward to our workouts. He tailors each program to fit my needs and continuously pushes me to reach my goals.

If you’re looking for a personal trainer who truly cares about your progress and well-being, I highly recommend working with Christian. You won’t regret it!“

“Nate Stowe is the best personal trainer I've ever worked with. He is completely nonjudgmental and really knows his stuff. The workouts he creates are totally customized for your age, level of fitness, and personal goals, and he's also super careful about working around existing injuries and avoiding new ones. If you're ready to get stronger and set yourself up for healthy aging, Nate is 100% your guy!“

“Best F45 gym I’ve worked out at! Coach Alyssa is the greatest trainer. She takes her coaching to another level with the members.“

“Such an awesome experience. The work is gentle but I felt it, simple but effective. Couldn’t recommend more for people who often feel “tight”. Immediately part of my body care circuit.“

“Love this gym! The vibe is spot on and all the coaches are AMAZING! They truly care and remember all members by name! I really love the style of workouts here where I don’t have to use my brain after a long day at work. Whether it’s cardio or strength or something in between, there is a workout for everyone. I especially love the fact that they provide so many time slots from which I can pick what time I want to workout. This flexibility has helped me stay accountable. The videos show it all and the coaches are always there helping you, providing modifications and motivating you to do better with every set. Every month they come out with a new theme to keep things interesting. If you want to hit your fitness goals, this is the gym for you!“

“Nicole was fantastic! Always punctual and prepared, I knew we would jump right in each day. She challenged me and encouraged me, making sure I took needed breaks and noticing when my form was slipping and I was getting tired. Such a joy to work with!“

“F45 has solid programming and an atmosphere for people who need structure, guidance, and coaching but who may have limited time in the day. I can get in, work up a sweat, and leave feeling better without feeling like it takes up too much time in a workday.

Troy, the GM and Lead Coach is the gold standard. He explains everything with enthusiasm and clarity. He cares about how well you are working out, the quality of your form, and pushes you just enough to feel challenged and also accomplished. I appreciate how he does his job well and the knowledge he brings to every workout.“

“As a senior lady, I have been going to this gym for over 8 years and I can't say enough good about it. Jacob Rios, Master Trainer, has designed a program for me that addresses my lower back pain. He has improved both my strength & balance. The gym is super clean and friendly. Many clients like myself have been coming here for years!“

“Really impressed with Chalk Training. The coaches are welcoming, knowledgeable, and the gym has a great community feel. Loved that they offer both group classes and personalized one-on-one training depending on your goals. One of the best training environments I’ve seen in Austin, especially for strength training, mobility, and overall fitness!“

“The team at Austin Muscle Restoration are amazing! I had extreme pain from a bulging disc and was limited in my abilities to perform many basic daily activities. Working with Brandon has helped me to ditch the walker, regain my independence and participate in all the things i love to reclaim my life.

I was unwilling to take the normal path with shots and surgery and I am grateful that I continued the search for an alternative more holistic approach that allowed me to stay whole and let my body heal.

I continue work with them to keep my body moving properly and to strengthen areas that need improvement.

Highly recommended for everyone and particularly those with back pain.“

“Our 10 year old daughter started with Legacy Martial Arts and it has been an incredible experience for her. She loves the challenges physically and mentally, the discipline and honor is refreshing and so cool to witness. Guro Larry has an infectious positive attitude that truly works so well with kids! So grateful we found this place! Highly recommend for kids and adults!“

“It’s a great workout, led by great coaches (Jess is my fav!) who customize and modify when needed. I enjoy the community and it is very convenient. I love the variety of class times and that every workout is unique.“
