Reposted from Yelp, but I think everything applies here too! :) Listen: no lie, Anytime Fitness changed my life. Here comes a testimonial (cue music) - I had just ended a major relationship, and consequently began a really unhealthy relationship with food as an emotional coping mechanism. I was also mostly sedentary throughout the day (Im an academic by trade). It would not be hyperbole to guess that I was most likely depressed. Glen, Karl, and the crew at Anytime Fitness truly cared about my ability to meet and achieve the fitness goals I set for myself. Over the course of some training sessions I picked up the right work-out and eating habits, and made a plan for myself. I didnt need the AF crew to hold me accountable to my goals, they helped me to hold myself accountable. This was a major life transformation for me. Glen even joined in for a few pick-up work-outs, and was always greeting/waving goodbye with a smile and a kind word. Because of AF, Im in great shape, at my ideal weight and size, and feel energized and motivated to do the hard brain-work academia requires. I keep up my activity level (Ive gotten into running, which, two years ago I wouldve told you "but I get shin splints, so I cant really run...")... Truly, I can not say enough about this gym - it is the only gym I have felt totally, 100% comfortable in. Bonus: private changing rooms take away the anxiety of gang locker-rooms and shower situations.

Copied from my Yelp review: I just moved back to Austin after living in the southeast for a few years and have been frequenting this location for 2+ months now (~3x/week). Ive been to several dozen AFs across the South over the last few years, and this is easily one of the best Ive utilized: -Two power racks and plenty of weight -Stations for dips/pullups, and plenty of different machines (including a Smith machine) if youre into that -Multiple benches and a great selection of dumbbells -Big, well-lit area away from the lifting floor for stretching/yoga/calisthenics -Several treadmills/ellipticals/bikes for cardio work -FOUR restrooms that are consistently clean and stocked with TP/paper towels -Solid WiFi -Complimentary water station -Very helpful and friendly management -Convenient location with plenty of parking I couldnt recommend AF more highly, both as an overall business and this location in particular.

Ive been going to this gym for a year and a half and I really love it. The space is large and the equipment is new and in excellent condition. Its got everything you need: free weights, quality weight machines, plenty of cardio machine options, TRX cables, kettle bells. The only person who might be disappointed is a powerlifter but there arent many gyms around where you can drop massive weights from shoulder height. Even during peak hours I never have any trouble getting my workout in. I like the crowd there, too; always a pleasant vibe and good mix of people. I should also mention Glen, the owner. Great guy, always available for advice and very responsive to feedback.

The first time I walked in I was shocked. Nice, clean, spacious gym with quality equipment (including a heavy bag) and even clean, private shower rooms. And it wasnt busy. Even from 5-7 on weekdays, its never crowded. I really expected some kind of catch, but I never found one. I have been to a lot of gyms and this is one of my favorites. (Aside to Tim and his power rack rant: Seriously? What made you think this was a powerlifting specialty gym? And anyhow, when have you EVER had to wait for that rack? You dont have to rank this place a five, but we both know one star isnt fair.)

they waste all this money on this expensive cardio equipment and TRXs, but there is only 1 station in the entire place to do deadlifts, power cleans, squats, barbell bench press, barbell military press...yea pretty much any staple compound exercise that is the basic foundation of any fitness program if you want results...go to a gym that goes back to the old school basics This ranks right up there with planet fitness as to why more americans go to the gym but more americans are fatter than ever...the equipment used at the facility and an owner who says "dont drop the weights"

If only there was a way to do zero stars. Ive been a member for two years and went I tried to bring a guest, they denied the guest. The skinny guy that manages the gym is horried. He said if I wanted to bring a guest I would be bill 25 dollars for every guest. The facilities are top notch and the location is great. The gym itself is great. However the management could use a major change to keep from losing people. Sincerly Mr_se7en

My friend and I have been trying out various gyms around Austin, and were really impressed with this one. Small, but doesnt look or feel small due to great design and use of space. State of the art strength and cardio equipment and innovative group/class options. Accessible 24 hours, clean private bathrooms with showers. Friendly, knowledgeable staff. You can try it for a week for free and see for yourself!

Great Gym! Awesome variety of free weights and machines to accommodate any workout. Multiple treadmills, ellipticals, and TRX suspension training ropes. Glen always makes sure the gym is clean and the weights are racked properly. Been coming here for almost a year now and have no complaints. Keep up the good work!

Visiting from out of town. Just looking for a place to work out for the day. Is this place even opened? Nobody answered the phone when I called -twice. Both member and guest doors were locked. So confusing. Maybe I just dont understand how "Anytime Fitness" is supposed to work.

This has become my AF location of choice when visiting family in Austin. Its always clean and the equipment is very well maintained. As an added bonus, theres a Starbucks at the corner for my post-workout drink (other than BCAA).

Love my friendly, neighborhood gym! Much better than one of those mega-gyms. Also like having Zens Restaurant right across the parking lot. Its a one-two punch for getting and staying fit.

The best anytime fitness I have been in. I travel across the USA for work, in the health industry and this is the nicest. Big, spacious, clean, friendly staff. Get on down there.
