I started going to classes in 2014. Over the years so many different types of classes have been offered under one membership. Theres no place like it in the area. You get small group accountability to meet and exceed your physical, mental, and overall wellness goals while being surrounded by some of the best folks in town. I highly recommend inquiring about all the classes. No matter your fitness level or age, this is a gym youll feel comfortable in and welcome.
Harry and his team of coaches enthusiastically welcomed me into their fitness community a little over a year ago. Being new to the area, finding a great gym was important as well as needing to find some friends! I got both when i joined! So thankful to belong and be supported alongside so many amazing humans.
I love it there is all types of machines and free weights and mostly in good condition whatever you need for full body workout
I have been coming to this CrossFit gym for almost two years now. Everyone here is like family and Harry and his team of coaches are extremely knowledgeable, helpful and amazing. Love them!
My GF and I were traveling from San Jose, CA to visit family and explore, and we also like to hit up different gyms while on our travels. This gym in particular was recommended to us by my father, so we came into an evening class with Liz. The gym is very well kept, nice equipment and spacious. What really stood out for us, is Lizs teaching methodology and attention to detail. She absolutely 100% wants your form to be impeccable! She by no means puts the cart before the horse in anyway, breaks down every movement and mechanical piece of the workout (if needed). Mind you, were still beginners for the most part, but Liz is a solid teacher and anyone taking this class long term will develop really outstanding technique and gains in every facet of fitness... trust me, weve been making our way around the country and there is a BIG difference as far as teachers go, and Liz stands way out from the pack. Thank you so much Liz!
Harry and his ragtag team of coaches are the best of the best. Sure, the word Elite is in the name and the word BOOM is plastered everywhere. But dont be deceived...neither are required for you to show up. The coaches and community will incrementally turn you into an elite athlete. Its awesome to see people of all ages, all shapes, all sizes shuffle into class and then leave with their head held high. Outside of sports I have never found a gym or workout routine that I could consistently stick with. I have been at Lakeway Elite Fitness for over 5 years, 4-5 times a week. I have seen tremendous physical gains...but its the community and coaches that galvanize the culture...and keep me coming back.
LEF is life-changing! I started in 2007 after I met Harry Shaw at my work. What I thought would be just joining another gym became so much more... Weve been friends now for over 12 years. Waiting for him to open a spot in Austin!
I LOVE Lakeway Elite. Their coaches are so friendly and personable, and the groups are so welcoming. It feels like family and I strongly encourage anyone thinking about joining to do so.
Train with the best at Lakeway Elite Fitness. Fitness or self defense, Harry has it covered. I started with the FREE Saturday morning workout, and leveled up to Krav.You have to earn the BOOM! But once youve got it, youll stand tall!
Lakeway Elite Fitness Krav Maga is first class! The instructors are black belts and are incredibly knowledgeable and skilled practitioners. Instructors and members are supportive and friendly. I could not ask for a more positive and encouraging environment!
I have been a member of CrossFit Lakeway for almost 3 years now. As a former regional and Games competitor, Figure competitor and Certified CrossFit Football coach, I can attest to the high quality programming that CF Lakeway provides. I keep coming back because the coaches are great people and I love that there are people at every level of fitness who are brought together by similar goals: challenging yourself to reach your goals, staying healthy, feeling great and being part of a community.
Great community! Great Workout. A place to challenge yourself and amazing community and coaches to support you.
Great place to workout for any age group! Love that fact that we focus on different muscles for a full body workout.
Harry and the rest of the coaches are always nice and push you to be the best that you can, and the people who go are always kind and encouraging.
Amazing coaches amazing workouts. Any age, any ability, everyone is welcome and treated like family. You never do the same work out twice (other than hero workouts). They are great at scaling up or scaling down.
I joined Crossfit Lakeway Elite Fitness over 2yrs ago. I had suffered a traumatic loss and was looking for some way to help my grief. I was less than 12 months postpartum and had no previous experience with Cross-Fit or Krav Maga. Not only has this gym become a safe place for me to come process, but now I have a new community of support and friends. My health and nutrition have completely turned around. I’m forever grateful to Harry Shaw and his coaching staff. I highly recommend giving them a try. It is a great and safe place to start if you are a beginner.
Visiting from Australia. Harry and the team were awesome. Made me feel super welcome, and then made me work hard.If you want to sweat, work your ass off, and have a great time doing it... These guys are fantastic.Highly recommended.
Absolutely the best experience with great coaches who are engaged and take the time to get to know how everyone is individually wired. During the workouts you hear the coaches encouraging everyone individually to what that person wants to accomplish. Very impressive that they have that personal touch. Ive been to several CF boxes in several states and Harry at Lakeway Elite is the only one that has me smiling before getting there. Mostly because I know the workout will be the best kind of brutal ever and we will laugh the whole way through it. High energy, great attitude, tail whipping workouts to make you feel delicious when you are done. Regarding KRAV - WOW. Also a fantastic experience on that side of the parking lot you experience a different coach. Harry is serious, pragmatic and tactical - he is constantly explaining the why and the how before translating it to intensity, powerful and strategic action.
Liz and the team were awesome. I popped in to do 17.4 Open workout and was late but they were very welcoming and accommodating. Excellent facilities and great care and attention in the warm up and the workout. Will definitely go back if ever in Austin again.
I should have posted a review long ago because my experience at Crossfit Lakeway has been fabulous since day one. Now approaching my 3 year anniversary, I can say that the program has transformed my body. Liz and Harry Shaw are expert trainers and are well-versed in nutrition. Under their care, I have reduced my body fat by HALF. Pretty impressive. So if youre thinking about going, run, dont walk (plus that will help you prepare for day1)!
If you are looking to push your personal fitness boundaries while surrounded by an expert staff and great community this is the spot for you. Ive been working out here for about 3 months now and feel myself getting stronger and healthier every day. If you are willing to work hard and have fun youll find great success with this group.
Very cool little gym, has everything you’d need and Harry is great. Programming is challenging and the members want to compete and that makes it fun. Will definitely be back when I’m in town.
I was a cardio junkie before joining Crossfit Lakeway. Now, I am stronger, more lean and my endurance has skyrocketed. The best result from coming here is the boost of confidence I have after completing a really wicked workout. Come if you want a great challenge, knowledgeable coaches and to make great connections.
Very personal coaching. Good teaching/training. Very relational. Have met a lot of people with whom Ive developed great relationships. It has definitely strengthened my fellowship with other members of the Lakeway community.
I have been a member of Lakeway Elite Fitness for almost 2 years now and havent looked back! I decided to make a commitment and stick to it. The coaches have top notch training and offer positive encouragement. No two classes are the same, so If your looking for a new workout give them a try! Highly recommended! :) :)
Workouts are always good abs challenging. Coaches are always willing to help and answer any questions you have. They are attentive in making sure your form is correct to help prevent injuries.
With the great fitness coaching and Lizs expert nutrition advice, I have not only lost weight, but also had both blood pressure and cholesterol medications cut in half! I went to Liz and Harry because I had been trying to avoid medication for type 2 diabetes and was at a plateau. They, along with other coaches and members, are so encouraging! I have reversed my diabetes diagnosis as well! Im 64, so if I can start Crossfit, so can anyone! I cannot recommend this gym highly enough!
This place is awesome. Nothing fancy, but top notch coaching and support to help you achieve your fitness goals. Highly recommend.
Being apart of Crossfit Lakeway has completely changed my life! Every coach and member will have your back and always will! Always a different workout, positive environment and encouraging!
Harry, Liz, Enrique and the team at Lakeway Elite Fitness provide a perfect blend of encouragement and pushing me to do more with a focus on the safety and technique of each individual. If youre looking for a place where the staff and other members bring a positive, helpful attitude, this is the place for you.
This is one of my most rewarding experiences ever! Our coaches truly proved to us that CrossFit is for any age. Liz and Harry have made this a true family for us all! We are constantly pushed to do our best.....which is something that helps everyone continually get better, faster, stronger😀 I would have never believed someone my age (mid 50s) could work so hard but have so much fun😀 The people here at CrossFit Lakeway, all ages, make workouts a blast! Come try a Saturday workout and see for yourself!!Linda Jacobi
If you want to stay healthy and strong, CrossFit Lakeway is the best option. Awesome coaches and a lot of good people!!
Great box! I stopped in while traveling for business and they welcomed me right in. Very clean, organized and my coaches instruction was on point.
A friend told me about CrossFit training because they thought it could help me. Well I can tell you that after 3 months of intense cross fit training and help from Harry Ive lost 40 pounds! I would recommend cross fit training at Lakeway Elite Fitness to anyone who is serious about getting in shape.
Dedicated, caring, and knowledgeable coaches! Liz and Harry go above and beyond to help you achieve your fitness, nutrition goals. Love CrossFit Lakeway!
They are wonderful. I visited from Kansas City and had a wonderful experience. Highly recommend them.
I have worked with Harry, Liz and the other coaches in both Krav and Crossfit. They take care of you like family. Awesome people. Itll spoil you.
CrossFit Lakeway has been life changing for every member of our family! When you join CrossFit Lakeway you get to surround yourself with like-minded, caring, hard working people who share a common goal to challenge themselves daily.
I have been going to Lakeway Crossfit for over a year and look forward to every workout. The quality of the coaching and the workouts really make them exceptional.
Great box. Great trainers. Awesome community of people.
One of the highlights of my week is stepping into this gym 2-3 times a week. Great workout, excellent coaching and an ultra positive vibe at all times.
A great gym. Going on 2+ years now. Great people and great workouts. Krav and Crossfit combined will get and keep you in shape. The whole family is hooked.
Love this gym and love these people! Great workouts also!!
Incredible community, great workouts and great coaches. Harry is the man!
The most amazing coaches and community!! One of the best decisions Ive made!!
I cant say enough great things about Lakeway Elite Fitness. I have been a member for over 3 years now and I still enjoy it as much as I did the first time I stepped into the building. I have struggled with sticking to a work out regimen for more than six months at a time. I have trained for long distance running, triathlons and I have completed all of the more famous work out DVDs that are on the market. All of those became monotonous after about six months and I would lose my ambition to keep training. I tried Krav Maga and fell in love with it immediately. I get a great work out to stay in shape as well as learning real life self-defense techniques that I hopefully will never have to use, but if required to, I know I will have a chance of getting home safe. I really like the fact that no two classes are ever the same. We may work the same techniques, but the classes are different to keep the work out fresh. The instructors are world class and are fantastic at making each work out tough, but in a way that it is enjoyable. They have many different types of classes available from beginner to expert. They really do a great job at making everyone that comes in and tries it feel comfortable. If Krav Maga is not your thing, Lakeway Elite Fitness also has Cross Fit, kids programs and nutrition classes.
After moving from Scotland I wanted to start CrossFit. I found CrossFit Lakeway and contacted Harry Shaw. Starting a new workout regime was very daunting but Harry was so personable I felt immediately at ease. I started off slowly but grew to love being at the gym, I was getting stronger and fitter but I also gained something far more important. I was very lonely having moved countries and knew not a soul, apart from my own family. CrossFit Lakeway has such a strong community that I began to make friends. Today these people are my American family and I dont know where Id be without them!Harry & Liz, the owners, have a wealth of training experience and along with their coaches they are constantly striving to better themselves in order to help you in whatever your goal may be. Chose CrossFit Lakeway, you wont regret it!
Lakeway Elite fitness is owned and ran by the nicest guy I have ever known. He will customize a fitness plan to meet anyones needs and help you reach your goal one day at a time.

Liz and Harry are awesome as well as the trainers. I dare you to show up. Youll go home dripping wet. And with a little work - go home and get lucky. ; )
