Ive been a member at 9Round for almost a month now, and its completely changed the course of my day. I look forward to my workouts, each one leaving me feeling refreshed and accomplished. Although I was nervous to begin, every trainer Ive come across has been welcoming and understanding while still pushing and encouraging me throughout each round. You get a lot of personal attention from the trainers, but its in no way overwhelming or intimidating since youre able to move at your own pace and feel like youre still completing an individual workout. The gym is also quite clean and is never too crowded at the times Ive gone, which was something I was concerned about due to COVID. Im super grateful that Ive been able to find a consistent & fun way to stay in shape!
Total body workout! Everyday is something new and the trainers are very involved in helping you get the most of your workouts. 30 minutes leaves you drenched. Round 1 has you huffing and puffing 😮💨 Round 3 has you begging for mercy but the trainers will motivate you to keep pushing through! Together we get stronger ! 🦾
The most effective gym I have ever been a member of in Austin! If you want to tone up and drop pounds then give 9Round a try. My first 30 minute workout was free, but I loved the one on one training and amenities so much I joined. I do not regret it! NO class times to work around, you just go in whenever is convenient for you! Love it!
I love 9 rounds. It packs a 30 minute workout in my day. I get to workout safely with like minded folks but with the benefit of being able to jump in to a session every 3 minutes vs committing to a specific class time. I highly recommend!
Going to 9Round was the first workout I have had since I herniated my L4/L5 and it has been a wonderful experience! Each trainer has given me a lot of one on one help and has made sire my technique is on point! I am loving this workout and cant wait to go back in today!
I can’t say enough GREAT things about 9Round! I love that there are no defined class times and the trainers are some of the best. I am able to get a fantastic workout whenever it is convenient for me, at a time that fits into my schedule. If you have not tried this type of workout, it is worth checking out.
Such a good workout! I love all the trainers, they really know how to cater the workouts to your fitness level and needs.
Best 30 minutes of my day. If you’re looking for an intense, fun and rewarding workout, this is the place for you!
It’s been a long time since I’ve enjoyed working out as much as I am at the moment. I have the team at the S Lamar 9 round to thank for that. You guys are awesome, thank you.
Tough workout that can be scaled up or down based on fitness level. Trainers are all great! Love it!!!
Most challenging work out in the fastest 30 minutes of my life! Great for anyone with a busy schedule who wants to remain in their best possible shape.
Great for anyone looking to pick up a new skill while getting a great workout surrounded by trainers who motivate and push you to surpass your limits! For those of you who think youre in shape, I dare you to try a free class to find out...
Honestly for the price and the experience you can’t beat 9 Round. So many expensive gyms in Austin that I’ve tried and despite this gym being small it’s definitely one the best and the trainers actually care. Also this gym is fairly inexpensive compared to the other kickboxing gyms out there so I definitely recommend coming here if you want to work with a Trainer and have a budget.
Quick and effective, trainers make sure you sweat and grind every rep!
Do not give this place your business! I parked near here the week after the Feb. 2021 Texas storm that left me and my family without power and water for a week. East Side King was offering free meals for the community, and I wanted to pick up a few for my family. Not even 20 minutes later, I had to pay $100 to get a boot removed from my car. Its evil that a company could care so little about the Austin community that they are willing to punish someone trying to get a hot meal the week after a natural disaster, and do so when their parking lot wasnt even full.
Great place for a killer workout with a great team!
I love 9 Rounds S Lamar! The business model is brilliant-there are no set work out times, you have personalized time with a trainer and different creative workouts every day. The prices are below market for the area-if you sign up for a year, you get a discounted rate. I suggest anyone considering membership get that plan so they can lock in the great pricing. I highly recommend!
I go to the one on south Lamar and I absolutely love it! The trainers there are very tentative when I need them. I love that this is a full body workout. I started a year ago and I was in the best shape of my life. Now I’m back to make this a lifetime habit and become a better, healthier me!
I love 9Round so much Im pretty sure everyone I know thinks Ive joined a cult. Let me explain why. I did my first workout 6 months ago (in December) and was actually pretty freaked out by how severely I had let me level of fitness lapse. Im pretty sure that the instructor that was showing me the ropes, Donald, was questioning whether or not to call an ambulance while he watched me almost pass out after jumping rope for a minute. But I persevered. Enter Sarah and Nuala, the trainers I work with the most because I go in the morning. They have slowly but surely turned me into a machine. Im down 4 pants sizes (38 to 34, and Im now able to wear jeans that havent fit for a decade) and 40 lbs. I feel better about myself, and I am lost when I cant get in to do my workouts. I wont quote prices here, but to some it may seem expensive. To me I think its one of the best things Ive ever done for myself, and I see 9Round being an integral part of my life for a long time. I owe the entire staff my eternal gratitude for helping me on my physical fitness journey.
9round S. Lamar has become part of my daily routine over the past couple of months. I went in for a trial workout with a friend in January. From there, the owner Meredith and her trainer, Sara did such a great job that I committed to 3 months. Three months passed by and here I am committed for 6 more months.I have tried various types of workouts and played multiple sports growing up. Working out is essential for me but wasn’t always enjoyable. Nothing has kept me as consistent as the kickboxing workouts that 9round offers. Not to mention the accountability component. The trainers pull me back in if I begin to slack. :)I love that there are no set class times as my schedule can vary day to day. Additionally, the workouts change daily which keeps It fun and interesting. I’m a huge advocate of this place, the people, and fitness, and the family that comes along with. The whole crew will make you feel welcome here. No turning back for me!!
I have been going to 9Round South Lamar for two years now and can confidently say that this is the most engaging, challenging and convenient workout routine that I have ever tried. The trainers are so knowledgeable and give you great feedback, while challenging you to push your limits. In addition, not having to be confined to limited class times is so convenient with my changing work schedule. I can always drop in whenever it is most convenient for me.
Awesome workout, and the trainers all have a positive attitude. I really like how even though there is a set workout at each station, the trainers know where you are and will adjust the workout to tailor fit the needs of the member. 9Round has a great atmosphere that really pushes you to do your best. I really enjoy taking out my frustrations on the heavy bag, and doing padwork with the instructor is awesome! This is a workout that I always look forward to going to.
I have been punching at 9Round on S Lamar for almost 2 years. I appreciate the flexible schedule and that no 2 work outs are the same.
Great locally owned gym! Quick workouts that push you harder each visit and you can track progress with live heart rate monitoring. The trainers are all awesome and want you to hit your goals. I would never push myself at a regular gym. Meredith is a extremely motivated trainer and small business owner. Definitely recommend!
Just signed up! Ive been looking for this. A semi-personalized (I really dont want someone with me the whole time), motivating, effective, AIR CONDITIONED, affordable, convenient workout. Great energy at this place and deep down Im Eeyore so thats saying a lot if something can get me motivated. I love that you can show up anytime. I love that the trainers keep you going and give you tips without shaming you. It was down right fun! And I hate working out! There are 9 stations close together so the trainer is helping you and a few other folks at the same time. I didnt feel left out or annoyed. I thought it was the perfect setup. Best workout in years.
I am a big fitness advocate and always looking for something different to fit my schedule. This gym was a great fit as it gets me in and out in 30 minutes leaving with a great feeling of accomplishment. The staff was great and equipment was clean, which are two of my big things when looking for a place to workout at. The trainers took their time getting me use to the new movements as I come from a Crossfit background so this was something that I think I will accommodate more, plus it’s a great stress relief hitting the bags and doing pad work. Give this place a try, I went in with not knowing what to think since it’s such a short workout but 30 minutes later I was drenched in sweat with a great feeling of accomplishment and confidence.
You will have your car booted if you park here. Fair warning.
Exceptional trainers, most flexible schedule in the ATX, great value. Highly recommend!
I had my first class today and was impressed by the facility and the instructors . They were knowledgeable, encouraging and great, interesting people. They offered me a free class so I could try out the facility, which is generous. The workout is diverse and you can make it as easy or as hard as you want to make it. There is a lot of flexibility with the schedule so there are no excuses not to make it work. 9Round Austin is a gem in South Austin!
9round is such a great work out. I love that there are no class times and you can walk right in and start working out. The trainers are super encouraging and motivational. Probably my favorite work out ever!
The most fun 30 min workout you can ever have: people there are really friendly; theres goals, activities, different C. H. O. W. every week and all the exercises are never the same on each station. I love that i can see results in my body fast.
Great cardio! I love that I can stop in any time to work out rather than have to plan my entire day around when a class is held. Trainers are great here also!
I had a blast today! I belong to a 9rounds in Houston and while visiting My boyfriend I saw this location near his place. So I popped in today hoping I could pay for one class to drop in. To my surprise the Owner had no problem with dropping in at NO CHARGE! great sized studio and very clean. You could tell the trainers love what they do and I had a great time breaking a sweat. I’ll be recommending this location to all my ATX friends.
Ive been coming to 9round since it opened in July. My pants size has gone from a 42 to a 38. I couldnt jump rope at the beginning because my knee hurt and I could barely get off the ground. Now I can jump for the entire 3 minute round, pain free.My core work was nearly nonexistent when I began. I still have a long way to go with my core but I can absolutely see and feel the difference.Add all that together with a group of trainers who are awesome, friendly, and motivational and 9round is my new home away from home
Amazing gym, with nice knowledgeable trainers! I love 9rounds... Its a class type setting without having to worry about being late. Its 9 stations that are 2 min long. You can go whenever you want and just jump in when the next round starts!
Yesssssss! I do love me some 9Round! Though the location is a tad tricky to get to, the trainers are worth the effort. Donald and Desmond are two of the best. Even though I’ve been a 9R member since 2016, the workouts still challenge and strengthen me. My home club is in Hurst Tx so I popped into this one while on a business trip. They were welcoming, the club clean, and the trainers tough. Both helped me improve my form and technique. I left sore and happy. Thank you for the warm welcome and for helping me towards my goal of 500 by 12/31. You guys rock!
Meredith the owner is amazing and the trainers are great! The gym is spotless and all the equipment is brand new. You can’t get a better workout in in 30 minutes anywhere else, and it’s so convenient since there are no set class times you just show up and get to work.
As a former gym manager of both group fitness and personal training facilities, 9round has it figured out. No class times, trainer led (always), open 6 days a week. Any fitness level can join and see results. Incredible workout and alternative form of cardio if you’re not into traditional forms like running/stairmaster/etc. Locally owned and if you join at S. Lamar you have access to the Airport and Cedar Park locations at no extra cost.
I love the workouts and having a trainer with you correcting your form along with showing you what to do.
I love the staff and the workouts!I’ve been a member for almost a year and have seen great results, highly recommend for people with a busy lifestyle.
Such a great workout!! Really nice staff and a great HIIT workout - awesome to accommodate a busy schedule too :)
Ive been going here since it opened July 2018 and was part of the original 100-ish members. I have since been inducted into the 100 workout club (about 6-8 of us). Favorite part about going here: workouts change every day and there are NO start times. This kind of flexibility and varied workouts makes going pretty enjoyable with no stress.I would say that this gym is a pretty intense HIIT cardio with less focus on weights. I used to just do cardio, and this has really improved my strength in all areas. I play badminton pretty competitively, and would always have issues with my lower back and knees, but 9Round has helped me build muscle in my quads and increase my core strength so both are no longer issues when I play.All trainers are awesome; the more you go, the more familiar they are with your stamina and will continue to challenge you even if youve gone for almost a year like me.Couldnt recommend this place more, and 2 of my friends have already signed up. As a bonus, Meredith (the owner) also owns the Airport and Cedar Park location, which is awesome if you want to drop in for a workout in any of those locations around Austin!Tip: if you want to avoid traffic on S. Lamar to/from this gym, would recommend going when they open from 5:30am-7am, 9:30-1:30pm (when they close for the afternoon), 3:30pm-4:30pm, or 6:30pm-7/8pm (when they close). All other times not mentioned will have you sitting in traffic for times that may be longer than the actual 30 minute workout.
I loved it at first until I found out they are just money hungry people. I was a member at the north location off of airport first, the trainer Jay was great. I was enjoying it so much that i referred my boyfriend. Well after his first free workout he signed up with Sarah. She was incredibly rude. My boyfriend referred to her as maam and she said in a ugly stern voice dont call me that sarah is fine, he then proceed to say sorry he didnt mean to upset her he was just doing it out of respect and she was still rude and looked at him like he was stupid. It was very akward and strange! That made me want to transfer to the new lamar location...the airport location manager julie was kind enough to cancel my membership without a 30 day cancellation notice, so i could attend the south one closer to me. Although I had all my gloves, wraps,,ect Meredith still had me put down a $200 deposit claiming it was a deal bc i have already been a member...I find out that it was not a deal and that was just a regular rate for anyone..fast foward a few months ...I start having issues with them and my payments. One time i had reffered a friend whom signed up therefore i was granted 2 free weeks worth of workouts...first of all this is very misleading. u would think 14 buisness days right? Well no it only includes 10 days. (even thought they are closed sundays that still counts for a day) So not only was i misinformed. I was charged a full rate that month. When i contacted meredith about this issue she apologized and said she had forgotten and that she would credit me those 2 free weeks for the following month. I requested the money be put back in due to bills being due and she completly ignored my request. I left it alone bc i was going to continue working out and i didnt want any confrontaion. Another month passed by and again there was issues with my monthly payment date. It was never consistent therefore i deciede to leave the gym. When i tell meredith that i am cancleing my month 2 month contract because i have to start paying student loans back. She procceds to tell me that my health is just as important as my student loans Um excuse me, a gym is not necessary for good health it is a luxury!! Second of all, why would u try to presuade me with that comment when it was already difficult and embaressing to me to tell you why i had to cancel in the first place. I also think its stupid that i have to give them a 30 day cancellation notice when i am on the MONTH 2 MONTH contract, not a 6 mo/12 mo..ect,,,so there i was againn paying for a membership i was not even attending for half of that month due to poor communication on the gyms part....literally, the only reason for 2 stars is because the trainer, DONALD is awesome!! He was also very motivating during my workouts. He is passsionate about what he does and has expeirence and very good advice.
