Great workout in each class! I’ve made great gains in only a month of working out here. Barry will give you S.P.A.C.E. legs every Wednesday & Saturday!
I absolutely love going to Fitpro Metairie. The atmosphere is fun and up beat. you definitely get a great workout in each class! Barry and Ed go above and beyond to get to know their clients and to help get them where they want to be on their fitness journey.
Love FitPro!! Barry and Ed truly care about their clients! Love the family environment!
I have been training at Fuel about a year now with Barry the owner . I have severe back problems . I must exercise to strengthen my core and build muscle, which helps to decrease my back pain.Barry has done more for me in a year then others did in 8! He pushes me, but within my limitations. He is always careful to make sure I don’t injure myself even more. He checks in with me frequently to make sure I have the correct form as well as not causing me more pain.Barry has a great, easy going personality so it makes working out fun and entertaining. He is well educated and can talk about anything. I love Laurie too ( another trainer)I enjoy working out at Fuel because there is a great mix of people . Everyone is very friendly and their r people of all ages and from every walk of life. It is always clean and the equipment is in excellent condition. You very seldom have to wait to use a machine and if you do, it’s a matter of seconds.Fuel is easy to get to and the parking is free.I am in pain everyday and I often do not feel like going to work out, however I make myself. I do cause, I have less pain and usually have a lot of laughs while doing so.
Fuel Fitness is such a wonderful environment to help you succeed with all your fitness goals! It has everything you need and the classes are top notch! The owner, Barry, is the ultimate Fitness king and he is always willing to give nutrition and fitness tips to anyone in the gym. His entire staff are some of the nicest people I’ve ever encountered! Everyone is always so friendly and polite! Best gym ever!!! 💪 💪💪
I’m a middle aged woman and I’ve trained with Barry Smith for a number of years. I’ve always suffered with my lower back but Barry diligently, and meticulously worked with me to better strengthen my core. He’s a very attentive guy/trainer and is always mixing up the routine. I’m thankful for all of his time & knowledge. The FUEL facility is spacious and quaint but top notch for all of your workout needs, and the staff are always willing to assist. I also feel very safe in this environment.Thanks Fuel
It’s difficult to find a gym that is genuine not only in their staff but in their environment as well. They have an excellent selection of machines for what ever experience/training level. The staff is always available and helpful for any assistance. From an amazing selection of classes to a judge-free workout community, I highly recommend joining this gym.
I absolutely love going to this gym! I go to fuel to workout with my personal trainer Ed. He is awesome! Very knowledgeably and a great coach! The gym is always super clean and never over crowded. Everyone in there is always very friendly and kind. I would recommend this gym to anyone!
I have been going to this gym for a while and it is a wonderful place to be. The staff is wonderful and willing to assist in any and every way. I recommend this place for all at all levels of fitness. Barry has created and put together something wonderful. Everyone fits in without feeling uncomfortable or out of place. Everyone celebrates your achievements in a positive way!!
Not only is the gym impeccable, but the staff is superb! I love the close-knit atmosphere of Fuel. Unlike other gyms, the trainers and other staff members go above and beyond to get to know the members. I am personally greeted each and every time I walk into the gym! The trainers are also skilled in every area possible- from working with kids, professional athletes, and even the geriatric community. Fuel is perfect for any individual seeking a healthier way of life!
Fuel Center of Fitness is a great gym! Im not your typical gym girl; actually, always hated going to gyms because I felt uncomfortable. Not here! Everyone is so friendly and its a real community. Ive made some good friends here while also getting my workout done! Trainers great too!
No better option than Fuel for your fitness needs. Awesome assortment of equipment for all different lifting experience levels and a great lineup of daily classes. Though the gym and amenities are great, Fuels crown jewel id the staff. Barry and Co. are absolutely incredible in every way. I wouldnt want to join any other gym in the NOLA area.
Fuel is an amazing gym. The atmosphere is fun, up beat and clean. Everyone there including staff and members are so nice. Barry the owner is so friendly and helpful making everyone feel comfortable in an atmosphere that can be intimidating. Barry, Ed and Julie’s classes are so fun and motivating and you will see results!!
By far the best gym I’ve been to this year. The energy inside the gym helps fuel me through my long workouts, and the equipment/gym itself is top of the line. I look forward to changing my life here for the better. I recommend this gym to everyone! #fuel
I love Fuel! The trainers are personable, knowledgeable and keep you motivated. The facility is always clean and the staff is super friendly. Best of all, the members make you feel like you’re a part of a community. I can honestly say I look forward to going to the gym.
Working out has always been a challenge for me because I felt like that the trainers weren’t actually there to help, but the staff at Fuel Fitness ... AWESOME!! I feel I’m able to accomplish my weight loss goal and maintain my overall health. They really go out of their way to make you feel comfortable and make you feel at ease. I would highly recommend this fitness gym 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
I have known Barry for over 20 years and to see his vision come to light is a dream for all of us. All of my friends that attend the gym are always saying how nice everyone is and how pleasant the atmosphere feels. Everyone is working so hard and trainers are giving everyone special attention in their own way. Since my accident in 2015 I haven’t been able to work out, but Barry has given me many tips on stretching and strengthening my muscle in certain areas without doing a whole lot of vigorous activity. He is an excellent training and a great friend. Keep up the great work because there is no other gym I rather attend !
I love this gym...and to say I love any gym is saying a lot ;) Barry really knows how to motivate you and get you excited about showing up. The results Ive seen in the last three years are significant. Also, the space is nice, neat and clean. There are always little touches in the locker room that make you feel special- perfume, lotions, shampoo etc. Highly recommended.
I’ve been going to Fuel Center of Fitness since July 2017 and LOVE IT!!!! I’m inspired by Barry Smith and the way he has set up the gym, the variety of fitness equipment & weights, the cleanliness of the facility, the amenities(clean showers, hair dryer, bathrooms, makeup, etc), and most importantly the exercise classes! You will be challenged with Barry’s, Ed’s, & Julie’s classes!!!! I love the location & central location of Fuel. I feel at home here when I workout & that’s the best feeling! Thank you Barry & Fuel Center of Fitness!
Great people, facilities, and trainers. Staff always has a smile on their face and is polite. I always look forward to working out because of the fantastic environment here. Also, Fuel has several great workout classes through which you get to meet some truly amazing people. Highly recommend joining!
Fuel is such a great gym.! Barry and Ed make you feel at home and so comfortable. I have a wrist issue and really havent been able to work out my arms. Barry sat down with me and showed me exercises and even wrote it all down for me. Ive never been in that gym and didnt smile or laugh and that really says a lot about the people there. It a great place to workout.
Very friendly environment!! Love the music!
Clean facility with great equipment and excellent trainers. The staff was great, helpful and friendly. Its not intimidating to work out there. I never felt overwhelmed or under informed. The techniques I learned work for me when I travel and work out in another gym. Safety is first and I never felt as if the trainer was pushing me to do more than my skill level. Please with the results! Highly recommend!
Fuel is awesome! The staff is incredible. They invest in you as a person, athlete, and customer. Equipment is excellent (machines, cardio equipment, weight racks), and the classes will get you RIGHT. The community is encouraging and surrounding neighborhood is safe. I would highly recommend Fuel to all types of athletes!
I must admit that getting back into the gym after a few years of self training, was a bit intimidating. Especially when you saw how great of shape most people seem to be who are regular members. However, The fuel fitness team made my return to a structured work out system easy and I’m regretting for not joining earlier. In a word, equipment the team and experience has been great!
Local owner who knows everyone’s name and greets you with the biggest smile every time you see him! All of the staff there are so friendly and helpful. Top notch equipment, CLEAN workout areas AND showers!!! Whether you’re going to workout on your own, with a trainer, or love classes... They have everything you need. Seriously!
#1 gym for many reasons. 1. Clean with high quality equipment 2. Super friendly staff and the workout environment is just serious enough and everyones having a good time. 3. Ive known the owner Barry Smith for over 15yrs and hes of the nicest people on the planet. 4. Its perfectly located for an efficient workout with clean bathrooms/shower and then on with my day.
Fuel Center of Fitness is by far one of the best gyms I have ever had the pleasure of experiencing! You never have to wait on any cardio machines or any machine for that matter. The gym is always clean. The members are very respectful and they not only exercise their bodies... they also exercise proper gym etiquette. All the weights (Bar Bells & plates) are easy to locate & in numerical order according to weight. There are also trainers and class instructors available to give you tips or even book to train. I personally couldn’t ask for a better gym to be a member of... I love Fuel Center of Fitness! You will too!!! 💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾
Ive never been in a gym where I have felt more comfortable. Fuel is small, well-equipped and offers superb classes. The size and attitude of the staff make you feel at home and not overwhelmed by the idea of being at a gym. The staff themselves, as well as Barry, the owner, are knowledgable and friendly. The equipment is clean and well cared for. There is enough variety in the classes to keep everyone happy. Couldnt recommend it more.
This gym made me change my mind about how I feel as a female in a gym. The staff is warm and welcoming and the trainers are top notch. I can’t imagine spending my morning anywhere else. Oh and it’s super clean also!!
Love Love this fitness center! Ed Smith is a terrific trainer who help me reach my fitness goals. The staff is very knowledgeable in nutrition and fitness. The place is clean and they know everyone by name. Great place to workout.
Great Old Metairie gym. Lots of trainers available (I use Ed). Never to crowded and has all the equipment youll ever need. Also has a good variety of classes
Barry really works with his clients to make sure theyre getting everything they can out of their work out. His classes on Saturday mornings kick butt in the best possible way! The facility is super clean and the equipment is all top of the line. Love this gym!
Incredibly knowledgeable staff. Clean facility. Great group X programs. You can’t ask for more in a gym! Fuel is amazing! We need more locations! 🙏🏾
Barry, Ed and the crew at Fuel are great motivators, always in a good mood, and always willing to help. The classes are great and they have helped me lose a ton of inches and finally get in shape. I highly recommend coming here and having a consultation to help you attain your goals.
I have been weight training for 8 years now and have worked with several trainers at different gyms. I started training with Ed at the beginning of this year and not only do I love the atmosphere of Fuel but I have fallen in love with his training technique! If you are looking for a great place to work out, train, or take group classes Fuel will quirkily become a favorite.
Looking for a great gym? Barry and his Staff are all nice, courteous & knowledgeable. Ive been a member at many gyms... this one is by far the best! Look no further!! This is it!
Fuel Center is the definitely one of my favorites. I belong two other gyms, and love coming here for a change of atmosphere. Barry and Ed are amazing. When I need a real kick in the butt, I take the S.P.A.C.E class, it is truly a kick in the butt!
Fuel Center of Fitness group classes are top notch. Owner Barry’s classes keep you moving, build and tone, and leave you feeling the best kind of sore. Barry keeps you motivated and pushes you individually to grow as you soon learn that he cares about each member. I always look forward to my workouts here!
A perfect gym for those that enjoy personalized care. The trainers and staff make sure that each members needs are met, show proper lifting and work -out techniques, are on hand to answer questions, and provide excellent service and great classes. Up to date CLEAN professional equipment, never have to wait for a machine. Glad to be a member :)
I absolutely love Fuel! It’s always clean and I really like that they have the latest machines. The staff is very friendly and the other members quickly become your “gym family”!
FUEL is the ideal gym in every way possible. Great equipment, location, vibe, and people. I had the pleasure to work here for a while and the staff is amazing and always there to help out or just chat! 10/10 recommend!
Barry Smith and Fuel Fitness are your best club choice if you really want to get results. Results are where it’s at but I think it’s easy to just join a gym and not think about why you are joining. I workout at fuel and I am in the distribution business of exercise equipment. I work with facilities all the time so for me to workout at fuel tells you something.I find that with fuel being more personal that is key.Some clubs are like big box stores or Walmart so to speak and that is not what you want. I find Barry being such a talented trainer and coach is really what makes the difference along with a specialty training facility in fuel. Much more personal and result oriented!
Such an amazing gym! Personal trainers are attentive and helpful! So happy I found this gym in the heart of Old Metairie. Everyone is friendly and then gym is kept very clean! Wouldn’t go anywhere else now that I found fuel!!
This gym is amazing!! Very clean and the staff is helpful and nice. Plenty machines and lots of space. I have recommended this place to many of my friends.
Fantastic gym with all new equipment! The trainers are amazing and Barry is the best in the business by far! The classes are wonderful and fun, after 7 classes I really begin to see results! The staff cares about you as a person and your fitness goals. This gym has it all and goes above and beyond for their members!
Very nice place to train! Awesome facility with great equipment... Friendly and knowledgeable staff. One of my favorites
Amazing location, staff, equipment, and classes. Love the family-like atmosphere. Great trainers too. It’s been pivotal in my journey to becoming leaner, stronger, and happier.
Awesome facilities and even better people. Barry is great guy and very knowledgeable and helpful. 10/10 would recommend
Very accommodating and knowledgeable staff. Clean and well equipped facility. Makes going to the gym not so bad.
This place is exactly what I wanted, no pressure, no upsells! Its a local gym that almost feels homey in all the right ways! Trainers are great too! Highly recommend!!
Great gym! The staff (and even the members) are amazing. It’s a FUN place to work out!
Absolutely love this gym! Barry and his brother have kick-butt classes. Im a former DI athlete and their instruction reminds me of the intense training in college. You get your sweat on and Im already seeing results! So happy I joined!
This is the only place where I will work out. Everyone there is friendly, comfortable to be around, and unassuming. The classes are good, hard workouts every day. However, Barry and Julie modify the class workouts as needed to meet the physical needs/limitations of individuals who are recovering from injuries or who are beginners to working out. When I did personal training with Barry, he adjusted my workouts as needed but still worked me hard enough where I saw weight loss, obvious muscle tone, and overall greater strength in every day activities. I prefer this gym set-up over bar classes or Pilates workout places that only offer classes without additional weights or machines as part of their membership. This gym is the best option when choosing a place to workout.
Great classes and highly motivated trainers. I’ve been going to this gym for over ten years now, and I’ve never felt or looked better. Big Bang for your buck!
I’ve worked out a Fuel during my NFL offseason several times. From cardio to weights they have everything I need to prepare for the rigors of pro football. Bathrooms and locker rooms are clean, equipment is well maintained and easy to operate and the free movement space allows me to customize my workouts to fit my needs. The staff is knowledgeable and give Fuel a personal feel that all the clients enjoy. Thanks for helping me ENJOY myself while training!
Great location, staff, and equipment. Barry, Ed and Laurie could not be more friendly, knowledgeable and encouraging. This is a great place to train!
Well.... i guess i’d say hands down i love this gym considering i drive 30 minutes to get there passing plenty other gyms en route. It’s the only gym i have been to that i feel i’m more than just a membership fee deposit in the bank. The staff is awesome & always on board to assist any need. Classes offered are great. Not a gym that will make you feel out of place. Highly recommended.
Wonderful experience! They have great equipment, very clean, and staff was nice. can’t wait to come back!
I love FUEL so much. Its a smaller, clean, updated gym with everything you need. In addition to free weights and machines, there are 2 squat racks and a Smith machine, tons of exercise and BOSU balls, bands and tubes, several treadmills, ellipticals and bikes and a workout studio for extra space. Barry, Ed and Laurie are the most friendly and welcoming staff and know all the members by name. Its a great family and friends feel there with kind and courteous members too.
LOVE THIS GYM THE STAFF IS SUPER FRIENDLY. GREAT ATMOSPHERE TO WORK OUT. WOULD HIGHLY RECOMMEND TO OTHERS.
Several years ago, I was extremely overweight and I wanted to get back in shape. However, I was made to feel uncomfortable at every gym I tried until I went to Fuel Fitness.I was able to work out at my own pace, and I was encouraged by the staff and the owner Barry Smith to push myself and try high impact cardio classes the gym offers.I am so glad I did, because I lost almost 40 lbs and I am in great shape now. I am thankful for this staff for their encouragement along the way.I am still working out at Fuel Fitness and now Incorporate it into my daily life. This gym helped me get back in shape to go back to playing rugby after taking a 20 year break. The gym offers a space of caring staff, meal programs, pre energy workout drinks, and a comfortable place to be yourself and get in shape !I would recommend this gym to anyone that is looking for a new place to call home.
Love this place! Barry is an amazing trainer....the classes are amazing, the people are amazing everyone one always pushes u to complete your work out!
