My husband and I had memberships there while we lived in the area and everything about it was great! Marvin and the staff are all incredibly nice and make you feel welcomed every time they see you and the equipment is good. Its very different from a big box kind of gym where it can feel like a bunch of people just there for social time and showing off, in this gym people are there to really work hard and make changes and you happen to meet great people along the way.

Love this place. Been a member for a few years now. Its always super clean. The crowd is mostly people there who just want to work out and get healthy. People of all body sizes. Ive never felt uncomfortable being a person who definitely has more than a few pounds to lose. I bought a few sessions with a trainer to help me get started in my fitness journey which I highly recommend. Their trainers are great. They have lot of the basics and a few more to help you get where you want to be.

Great gym in a convenient location. My friends and I stopped in here to get day passes to use the gym while visiting Houston. First thing I noticed is that the owner and the workers are all in shape. Me being a fitness person myself I appreciated this because it shows that they are serious about fitness there unlike other gyms Ive been to. The facilities were super clean and they have all of the equipment you could want and/or need. I was able to do my workouts without waiting for anything and that is appreciated. I am definitely bookmarking this place and anytime Im in Houston I now have a fitness home.

My boyfriend and I just joined The GYM and we absolutely love it! They provide great equipment, extra amenities, wonderful customer service, and an inspiring environment. The second you walk in the door you are welcomed by a friendly face that makes you feel right at home. Everything is very clean and well taken care of. I can’t recommend this place enough!

My favorite gym ever. Affordable small business that keeps their customers first. Its a smaller gym setting but has everything you could need/want to train casually or on a intermediate/expert level. Everyone is very welcoming (Marvin is amazing) and the facility is kept clean and tidy at all times. 10/10 love this place

If you want a trainer who is professional, and educated in his field of exercise and nutrition. Then The GYM is it. Workouts are challenging, yet fun! You will definitely get results and he is always willing and helpful with nutrition tips and education. Recommend!

The GYM is the best gym ever!! Don’t be fooled by the size...there is plenty of quality equipment for every muscle group and duplicates of the most popular items so you never have to wait. Speaking of which The GYM is never too crowded (even at peak times!) and everyone is very respectful of personal space.The owners and trainers there are SO nice. They make The GYM so welcoming. As someone who is new to the area they always go out of their way to recommend ways to get around, things to do and places to go.If you are looking for a new gym be sure to check out The GYM!!

Frequented here for two weeks with a buddy (who is a member) while I was in town visiting friends. I personally got to meet Marvin and Steve, and theyre some of the nicest gym owners (and people) I know. Equipment selection is surprisingly good for such limited space, and I didnt have trouble with any of my usual workout routines. If Im ever in town, Ill definitely be back again. Hope they get some more shirts in so I can buy one and rep them!

I just got a 6 month membership here. It is a small place, but they have great equipment. They have a deadlift platform, heavy chains, plate loaded ISO row, single leg leg press, and a weight sled. Their dumbbells go up to 150 I think. It is a great spot to lift. Also Wes, the owner is a great guy. He is smart and friendly and always helpful with lifting tips and nutrition advice. I strongly recommend checking this place out.

Nice quiet gym with chalk and deadlift platform for those the care about that.

The staff were very friendly and helpful. Very knowledgeable!

The best gym in Houston! The owners, staff, trainers and members are hands-down amazing and make you feel like family. Everyone is friendly, helpful and knowledgeable when it comes to fitness and staying in shape, whatever your goals may be. Smaller gym, which has everything you could possibly need, and more! Great locations, hours, pricing!

Cool gym, very nice staff!

The folks at this gym are first class individuals. The staff takes their job seriously and treat everybody with respect. They genuinely valued my experience even though I only bought a day pass. I HIGHLY recommend this gym to anybody in town! Visiting or permanent resident. God bless y’all!

Friendly neighborhood gym! My favorite place to lift in Houston. I always feel very welcome visiting here. The place is super clean, has a great variety of equipment, and never feels too crowded.

Hands down the best gym Ive ever been a member of!-The equipment is very well maintained and cleaned on a regular basis.-Although its on the smaller side, it has pretty much anything you could want for bodybuilding, weight loss, powerlifting, etc. I go any time of the day besides mornings, and it usually isnt too busy for my tastes.-Super friendly owners and trainers- its easy to spend 30+ minutes talking to them. The owners definitely care about your experience and well-being here.-Trainers are very helpful and definitely know what theyre talking about. I havent bought any training sessions, but Ive had CK help me with a shoulder impingement and other issues, and Allan help me with my form on some lifts.Definitely very happy to be a member of this amazing gym😊

Great gym, great trainers, friendly staff and other members. Never waiting around for machines or equipment. They have all the equipment you could ever need. Never felt intimidated or shy about asking for help or getting some work out tips. Great place.

The GymI live out of town but stopped into the Gym for a workout and wish I had a gym like this in Miami. It’s not a very gym big but it has a lot more equipment than most of the gyms I’ve been to that are four times the size. Some of the equipment might be a bit older than what you’re used to but that’s only because it is all very well maintained. All the weights are all where they’re supposed to be and everything is very clean. The staff are very professional, knowledgeable and polite. If you’re looking for a gym, I highly recommend The Gym.

Great place to workout and I mean get a good one in. Nobodys just sitting there holding machines up. Everybody is actually exercising at this place. Straight motivation and really nice people .

I’ve been a member here for 3 years and love this place. All of the staff are incredibly friendly and full of knowledge, plus always willing to help. The gym is always clean too which is great. If you are looking for a new gym you should definitely check out The GYM. You won’t be disappointed! Since joining I’ve gained 50lbs of lean body weight. They can help with nutrition too!

I joined the gym because my buddy Darren recommended I switch from Houston Gym. Since joining The GYM I have lost 35 pounds and am stronger than ever. Wes the owner has helped me a lot to understand basics with fitness I never was taught at other gyms. I can’t recommend The Gym enough and love the location, huge parking lot and extremely friendly and helpful staff.

Dropped in here for a day with my girlfriend. Cool place! Unpretentious, uncrowded, friendly staff. Wes was very cordial and welcoming. We’ll definitely hit this place up again when we’re in town. My kinda gym!

The gym is my new favorite small gym in Houston for lifting. Very cool environment. Great staff. Wes was beyond friendly & cool & nobody is pushy.They have all sorts of weights for you to et a full workout. Highly recommended.

Great gym. Stopped by here on vacation for a week pass. The owner (Wes) was very friendly and helpful. Great local business. Happy to support you guys. I will definitely come back here when I’m in town!!

Ive been a member of this gym for about a year. The staff (Allan and Marvin especially) are extremely helpful and they dont have any sketchy billing practices or anything that holds you hostage like other big box gyms. I actually had a situation where one of my credit cards wouldnt work for some reason (married last name change maybe) and they just emailed me letting me know my membership didnt go through. They didnt call me excessively from 800 numbers demanding payment or anything obnoxious. I was out of town for work at back to back conferences out of state and they let me handle it when I got back. No extra fees or anything!This has been one of the best customer service experiences Ive ever had. It is also one of the cleanest gyms Ive ever been to and Ive seen a lot of gyms from my work travels. It might look small, but it has more of what I want to use (weights) than my husbands big fancy downtown gym.Most of the patrons are in pretty good shape, but the atmosphere isnt intimidating or judgey like some gyms. Everyone is here to help you. The crowd is diverse in age, gender and ethnicities. The GYM is definitely a treasure in this city. It will be one of the things I miss most about Houston when we ultimately move away.

Ive been to a few gyms here in Houston and none of them have the feel of this one. Theyve got great equipment, a welcoming atmosphere, and experienced gym staff all there to motivate you help you achieve your goals. Its like a fitness family. And because of that, Ill keep going to this gym as long as I live in Houston.

I trained with two of The Gyms employee trainers, which were great. However, the owner Steve is a thief and a liar. The trainer turnover is so high because he refuses to pay his employees properly. If you care employees rights do yourself a favor and dont join this gym.

One of the best gyms in the city...you can focus and no one will get in your way. Great owner greeted me as I opened door...we discussed bodybuilding among other things..trainers are on their game. Highly recommended if u dont want to lock in on a workout and ask for help on certain thing in your fitness journey. JUST GO TRUST ME!!!!

All of the staff are incredibly friendly and full of knowledge, plus always willing to help. The gym is always clean too which is great.

Small hometown feel with great workout equipment. Solid atmosphere and the owner, Wes, is incredibly knowledgeable and creates a comfortable/judgement free facility.Highly recommended whether you’re just beginning your fitness journey and need a little help or just wanting a change of scenery from the large corporations!

Super nice group of personal trainers. Lots of equipment if you just want to work out on your own. Good location with easy parking. Thank you Wes and Ray for always making me feel welcome.

Blake is an excellent sales person at this gym. However after BUYING a week pass the trainers constantly asked me when I would stop coming. If you run across someone named Steve.... PUT YOUR WALLET AWAY BECAUSE THIS GUY WILL NICKLE AND DIME YOU AND THREATEN TO KICK YOU OUT. I told them to keep the $40 I paid for one week. Lesson learned, never work out here

The G-Y-M is the best place to meet your physical goals! The place is equipped with plenty of workout machines and weights. If youre looking for a personal trainer I definitely recommend CK. He is very knowledgeable and will help you achieve your fitness goals. We all need to be encouraged a little and I found the motivation I needed at THE GYM!I totally recommend this Gym!!!

Visiting from out of town and stopped into the GYM. Great staff, great atmosphere and great equipment! Definitely go check this place out! Wish I had a place like this where I live.

Perfect sized gym, they have everything you need to get in the best shape of your life without clutter. Their staff is excellent and can really help you transform into the best version of yourself.

Im coming into town for about 3 months for work at the refinery, Im looking for a gym that doesnt nickel and dime me or try to have any hiding cost when you leave, is this a good gym to go too for 3 months if so how is it month by month with cost and so forth... dont bs to get a sale or whatnot, I love lifting I have a membership elsewhere but seen reviews on it so I wont be goin to my regular gym so looking for something different.... please upfront and honest

Great small gym, not ever too crowded to the point where you have to wait to use a machine or weight. Good music as well and great service.

Visiting from out of town. Came across The gym. Very clean and positive environment. Staff was very polite and helpful. Will definitely come back whenever I’m back in town.

Just got done from an AWSOME workout at The GYM. They have a great facility with a nice personal touch. Everyone is really friendly and welcoming. This is great for me as I am here for a short visit with the family. The GYM is my go to spot when visiting Houston.

Manager was phenominal. I was visiting for the weekend and he let me drop in for my needed session without hesitation and very affordable. Had everything I needed and then some as far as weights and machines. Great vibe awesome session. Will definitely be back when I visit.

Let me just start by what a great & welcoming staff, Im a powerlifter so I enjoy being able to make a little noise if I need to and not have anyone tell me anything. I loved the atmosphere of this place & Wes the owner of the establishment came by and talked for a little while when at any normal gym you cant even get the manager out of their office. I loved their equipment it was very suiting for my style of training, that all being said Ill definitely be returning soon.

Visiting family for a week and was recommended The GYM. Looked very clean and smart, and even though its relatively small everything that was needed for a frequent gym goer is there!Wes sorted out a pass for the week and made it alot easier than other places Ive tried to visit.

The GYM is a great gym! Super healthful staff members and just an all around great facility. Wes was very helpful my entire visit in Houston. Thank you Wes and the entire GYM staff!

Everything you need from a gym and then some. Trainers and staff are awesome and make you feel at home and welcome. Geared more towards bodybuilding, powerlifting, HIIT, and general fitness. Not as big as corporate gyms but if you are serious about your gym goals you will be able to achieve them here.

My favorite gym Ive been at in the last 5 years. Staff is super chill and helpful. They were super accommodating during hurricane Harvey and allowed me to have a guest workout without charge.

Fabulous instructors and studio in every way! Every instructor has been warm and caring and their expertise is invaluable in keeping the workout challenging, fun, and safe.

I just moved to Houston and was looking for a gym where people are serious about working out. I decided to try out this gym on a free week pass that Wes gave me, and I am so glad I did. From the moment I went in, the staff made me feel like I had been working out there for years and were more than willing to help me with a spot or any questions I had. They have all the equipment you need for bodybuilding, knowledgeable trainers, and no B.S. I am not going to waste my time looking at any other gyms.

Great place to workout. I wish the place was open longer, especially on the weekends. Every time I want to go, the place is just about to close :( Five stars otherwise.

The Gym is absolute gem among the plethora of places all across Houston. Never overcrowded or stuffy; a vast array of excellent quality equipment (seriously, nothing is ever broken here) and one of the most extensive dumbbell sets Ive ever seen; always clean and tidy but not sterile and uncomfortable...these are but a few of the boons that set The Gym apart from the rest.Owners Wes and Austin run a tight ship. These guys put their hearts and souls into The Gym, take their time to get to know ALL of their members, and have assembled a staff of some of the most polite and knowledgeable trainers in town. The Gym is like a big family, and everyone is made to feel welcome.After my first week here, I felt right at home (and for me, my gym needs to feel like a home away from home). The members are diverse, but there is one, underlying commonality - everyone takes what they do seriously, bodybuilders and newcomers alike, owing to an ecouraging and healthy fitness environment.I cant recommend this spot enough. Im *very* picky about my gyms, but this place felt right the moment I walked in.(And for the record, Ive been a member at pretty much every local gym and chain-gym in HTX...The Gym is my #1)

The Gym treats everyone like a family member! Its clean, has a wide variety of equipment, easy access and lots of parking. You can ask any of them a fitness question and theyll have an answer. A personal thanks to Wes for creating this gym environment/experience. 👍👍👍 Mike O.

Training here is like training with family. Friendly, polite, VERY knowledgeable and accommodating. Gives a “personalized perspective” to your gym experience. EXCELLENT trainers!

I rarely review businesses but I must make mention of how the owner/manager at the gym handled a financial miscommunication that we had. Wes reviewed what had happened with my relationship with the gym and was gracious enough to admit there was a mistake and actually apologized! He completely took care of the situation as a legitimate small business owner should. It takes a big man to behave how Wes did and I have to say that I was really impressed. That sort of integrity is VERY rare these days. I have no reservations highly recommending this establishment for your fitness needs! Good people.

Great place to workout. Easy no frills and friendly

Great place! Came to Houston to visit family and needed a gym that would accommodate a powerlifter and this place was perfect. Very welcoming staff and well equipped!

As a girl with no gym floor experience whatsoever this place is slowly becoming a learning haven for me. The one session I had with Laura included with my membership was super helpful. I blatantly asked for help with the machines and exercises that scare the heck out of me and I got a thorough run down of what I was supposed to be doing. If I could afford them I would love to work with their personal trainers more. (They arent crazy expensive, Im just in the Teaching income category, haha)The trainers who are there waiting for their appointments are always super sweet when I ask how the heck Im supposed to adjust or use one of the machines. At FIT athletic I got no answer when I asked. They were too busy or refused unless I was a client. To me, these are important safety questions, not training questions (how to move a seat, what am I supposed to do with this lever, why is this cable here, etc.). I know I have to read, watch, and look up techniques, routines, and theories unless Im willing to pay but this is just basic safety. So in other short words, The Gym staff cares about its clients well being. Thank goodness.As for the facilities themselves, the gym is clean and tidy. Most people there are willing to switch off on the equipment with you between sets and there is a walkway outside that you can use if you need more room. The equipment is NEVER broken. I dont know if it never breaks or if Wes just replaces/fixes it immediately, haha. On that point, the owner loves his gym. He is there every single day I am there. If you need help, you got it. The true point of these statements go back to the opening sentence. If you are a girl and dont think you know what your doing, want to get started, and have a fear of people thinking your not doing something right or openly judging your form this is the place for you. Its comfortable, its safe, and the other gym goers are just neighborly friendly folk. Just do it!

I just got back in town for winter break and needed a place to work out for the time Im here. Ive had a few bad experiences with bigger gym franchises (that I wont bother naming) and The Gym was the first result to pop up when i searched for private gyms. As soon as I got there, the owner Wes practically embraced me with open arms and immediately showed me around. I think he felt bad for me being a poor college student so he let me try out the place for free before paying for a membership. First impressions mean everything nowadays, and this gym along with its staff definitely pull it off well. If you want a gym where no one will yell at you for slamming weights, grunting/screaming, or blasting loud music, then The Gym is definitely for you. Im so glad I decided to give this place a chance and I cant wait to see what this month has in store for me. Thank you Wes-Carter Dufilho

Best gym in Houston

Easy going atmosphere, good music, a large variety of equipment, and ample availability of weights. All this combined with a convenient location. I got a great rate for two weeks, which enabled me to work and keep up with my routine away from home.Relaxed atmosphere, good music, a wide variety of machines and ample availability of weights. All this combined with a good location. They gave me a good two-week fee, which allowed me to work and maintain my training while I was visiting Houston
