They’re the best gym in Hays for a reason! The associates are amazing and every one of their trainers are super knowledgeable! I have been taking sessions with Zane for about 2 months and in that short time I’ve had huge progress! This is the type of gym you don’t want to miss out on being a part of!
This is a good gym focus on building muscle, losing weight, or whatever goal you have for yourself. They have a diverse member base of old, young, fit, less fit, male, female, and other demographics that frequent the original location. They recently have been renovating one of their racket courts into a mini gym. Unfortunately, they are being out priced by Golds. Their antiquated pricing scheme locks you into a contract for a year which is so last decade. THRC is a place I want to love, but the cost, and only the cost, is holding me back. The people are wonderful, the amenities are convenient, but the cost feels a touch too high.
I love this gym! The staff is amazing and the gym has everything you could need. The turf is extremely nice! I’d like to commend the operations manager Nick for being so accommodating and friendly. I had a great experience here and definitely will be back!
Love this place, amazing staff!!! This is the best gym in town and the only one I will go to! ❤️
READ FULL REVIEW:Made the most out of a bad situation.Working out here was great and the employees were friendly, but not worth it.I wasn’t aware when I signed up it was a 12month contract in addition to an extra $10 a month per person for key fobs. Our “family plan” cost a total of $175 a month for three people and that’s suppose to be a bundled discount.To top it off when I moved. I updated my payment method and billing address but apparently the billing zip code didn’t get changed fully and I was charged an extra $48 in processing fees due to my card being declined.Again completely overpriced and their business system is horrible. But if that doesn’t bother you, then it’s a great family friendly place to workout!UPDATE:Changed from a 2star to a 4star. Shortly after my negative review I was contacted by a manager to discuss my experience and ultimately refunded the credit card processing fee. Although it does not fully make up for the negative encounters, it does speak volumes about THRC and the direction that want to go.
I have been diagnosed with arthritis on my left knee. Working out with Elias for a year, he has helped me to keep my knee strong with knee and hip stretches, which I now do at home. Thank you Elias for caring!!!
Texas Health and Racquet Club is the perfect fit for my family. Not only for myself and my husband, but my kids love to go and see their friends. The environment is amazing. They make us feel like family. If you dont choose THRC as your choice in gym, you are missing out!! Did I mention that the childcare is FREE with membership?!
Worked out at THRC for two years with outstanding trainers Jake and Paul. An outstanding facility with a great staff. Since I moved to Houston in March, I only wish that I could find a facility like THRC in Houston. Thank you to all of you for the great service and being part of my family.
Definitely not somewhere you want to work. The kings of favoritism. If you voice an opinion, which they encourage you to do, they take that “in to consideration.” Which really means management wants to use it against you when they can’t come up with a valid defense for their own mistakes. They have no idea how to accept responsibility without pointing the blame at their employees first. Management is inexperienced, under qualified, and terribly unorganized. They really take the cake for lack of communication and then holding you accountable to something they forgot to tell you. You want to talk unequal opportunity? Then this is the place to work.
Voted best workout facility for a reason! Love everyone there!
Everyone is so nice.Only gym with childcare too!
Phoebe is a great employee, she was so helpful! She was great with children. THRC is the best!
I was intimidated to get back into the gym. But at THRC the environment is perfect for me. The faculty makes sure to make you feel welcomed and are there for whenever you need. They offer great classes and programs. I actually enjoy going to the gym to workout. I definitely recommend going in for a tour and joining if you are looking for the perfect gym for you!
Beware - you will not find a mask in sight here. Not a single person, staff or patron, was wearing one. A perfect location for a COVID super-spreader event! Extremely dissapionted.
Loved the gym, everyone is super friendly and welcoming. The gym itself gave out such a comfortable feeling, loved working out there, wish I had a type of gym like this back home, it was great!! 10/10 recommend and will definitely be telling others about it!
Motivational staffLarge open roomsGreat community vibe
I love this gym, and so do my kids. My 4 year old loves going to the daycare, Fabian and Rachel are AWESOME with the kids. The classes at this gym are also a highlight, I’ve learned so much to were I can incorporate what I’ve learned in the classes at home as well. BEST GYM IN SAN MARCOS !
Is this where GOODYBEATS GOES?? If so where do I sign up!!
Love this place and everyone who works there!! Best gym in San Marcos
THRC is a great gym. They have all the equipment you could ever hope for and the staff is wonderful. The facilities are always clean and tidy. I worked with JD May as my trainer and he was great. He pushed me and encouraged me and I saw huge results. I highly recommend him if you are looking to change your body and your habits! Great gym. Even better people!
Amazing facility and best staff of any gym I’ve ever been to. 10/10 would recommend
I’ve been there a couple of times. I completely recommend this gym. Nice and clean! That’s my main priority when I first look at a gym! My son Elias has a passion for training! He has helped me lose 40lbs with plan he set for me! At my age it was very difficult to lose weight. I made that accomplishment with his help!
Love this gym so much! Such an awesome, welcoming environment! I train with Mikey Rangel and it’s been one of the best experiences ever. He always pushes me to do more than I think is possible! He always encourages me and makes me laugh while kicking my butt with workouts! He’s so friendly, always has a smile on, and really goes out of his way for his clients! 10/10 recommend personal training with him!
THRC is the best gym in San Marcos. Everyone is friendly and they make you feel right at home. Even now during a pandemic, they are doing everything possible to keep everyone safe and healthy. The gym is always super clean and they have ample equipment that meets all of my needs. JD May is the best trainer to work with there! Always motivating and encouraging - you wont find anyone or any place better!
Great place to workout and support local business!
This place honestly couldn’t be any better. Every time I come here I’m greeted by the amazing staff of people who are always there to help me in any way I need. My personal trainer Gage is the epitome of what a great trainer is. This guy constantly reminds me to push through to hardest workouts. He’s been. Great motivator and trainer during my whole entire process. He expects the best out of me while time after time giving his best to help me understand my health and the path I’m going through for my health.
Ive gone a few times and I would recommend this club to anyone. The staff is friendly. Anytime I have had a question someone is eager to help me. Especially Dom at front desk, she is always very helpful and kind. She has definitely made my experience great at the gym.
From the moment I walked in THRC has been a welcoming place! When I joined I did t plan on meeting with a trainer, I thought I would just flake on my free session. I got paired up with Sonya and she made me feel comfortable but unfortunately she had to leave. I was nervous about working with someone new, but from the movement I started working out with Paul he made me feel comfortable. He allows me to complain as much as I want but never lets me give up and pushes me to be better everyday! I would recommend Paul to anyone. He’s literally one of the best trainers there!!!
Absolutely love THRC! Ive had memberships at several other gyms and this one is definitely such a family friendly and comfortable environment. Always clean too! My training sessions with Mikey were amazing. He would push me fairly and help me reach my goals each month. Plus hes freaking hilarious.
As a past member, that transitioned to a part of the THRC Personal Training Staff, it is easy for me to say that this place is easily the best gym in San Marcos. Because I know the value of training, I had JD train me, even when I worked there. JD helped keep me accountable even on my busiest days. His workouts are exhilarating and his knowledge as a trainer made me very comfortable and pleased with my time with him. Choose personal training, choose JD!
Not enough communication on specifics around billing/ cancellation. DO NOT give them a checking account.
I love this gym because it’s small and family oriented. It reminds me of an old school gym, the way it used to be. You see all kinds of people from young to old and all different levels. The staff is amazing and friendly. The prices can’t be beat! And I thoroughly enjoy the personal trainers. They are so fun and motivating! JD rocks and always makes me laugh during our sessions which keeps me coming in despite my busy schedule. I actually enjoy working out! They will tailor a workout for what works for you. You aren’t just another paying customer. If you need an escape from the hustle and bustle of your everyday life or your current gym, then this is the place for you.
I found the perfect gym in downtown sm! Best location because it’s so close to Texas State University! During my lunch hour, I can get a workout in and go back to work quickly. It’s very clean and the staff is super friendly especially Natalie! Thanks for all you do! 😊
Got to work with Chas Freeman recently and this guy is the real deal! Knows his stuff and made my workout fun! Always competitive but also very supportive of your goals and provides workouts to achieve those. Would definitely recommend to anybody who is looking for a trainer that knows a lot about all areas of fitness and health!
Ive had a great experience at thrc and truly believe its the best gym in san marcos! It exceeds all of my expectations and feels like a family!
Amazing facility ! The entire staff is passionate about what they do and the fitness classes are off the charts !
I love this gym and the environment they create! Everyone is so friendly from the moment you walk in the door. The entire staff is very passionate about all of their members, even the owner Randall himself is so friendly and genuine. The trainers are amazing! I train with Mikey Rangel who never fails to push me to the best version of myself, and never failing to make me laugh! They are all committed to helping you achieve your goals! This is hands down the best gym I’ve been to
This gym is so welcoming and kind to their members. I genuinely feel that the staff cares each time I interact with them and I feel that I get to know them over time as most employees stay for a long time. For about six months now, Ive been working with a trainer (Rachel) to help me gain some muscle and get into a good weekly routine that has helped my chronic pain more than anything. Rachel is flexible and knowledgeable. I love that shes excited about answering my questions and I really feel that she cares about my body and my health. This is a wonderful environment to grow physically!
Ive been coming to this gym for almost three years now, I can definitely say this gym is amazing! The gym itself is always clean, smells great, and the weights are exceptional. Staff members are extremely helpful, friendly, and willing to give advice whenever asked of them. Also besides weights they do have an expansion of other recreational areas, that would suit just about any type of athlete. I would recommend this gym to anyone and everyone!
I love THRC! This gym is amazing and I loved how they have accommodated online options during the past few months. Natalie Rios is an amazing trainer who always has a smile on her and loves the work she does. She is always going above and beyond for the members of this gym. Anyone looking for a gym should start here!
I have found a home at THRC. The gym has been a very welcoming and friendly place. The instructors are attentive and enthusiastic and well trained, and that has kept me coming back to their classes. Their personal trainers that Ive seen and worked with are excellent.Its not a fancy, new gym that you might find in the city, but it has adequate machines and equipment in the weight rooms.I would have given it five stars, but the gym could be cleaner. There needs to be a larger cleaning staff.
Elias was easily the best part about my visit at this location. You can tell he takes the success of his clients seriously. Great all around experience thanks to him! Definitely ask for him if you’re in need of training
I am a 60 year old ex athlete/bodybuilder and I highly recommend Chas Freeman as your trainer. Chas has the knowledge and experience to help keep me at the fitness level I want to achieve. He has helped me with my nutritional goals to keep me at a healthy weight for my knee and hip replacements. I highly recommend Chas to help you reach your goals wether you are a athlete or someone who wants to stay ahead of the age game.
Clean! Great gym! Great amenities! Fantastic & friendly people who work there. From front desk personnel when you’re greeted by first name to trainers! If you want an enthusiastic trainer go see JD May.
THRC is a wonderful and clean place to workout in. I love how faculty members are constantly reaching out to us to make sure we are meeting our needs when it comes to working out and getting the most out of these gyms. Natalie is the one to go to about your goals, training, diet and other tips when it comes to wellness. She always has a smile on her face each time I run into her and is so patient and helpful when it comes to any questions I have!
If you love working out and are passionate about fitness, Natalie is the person to go to! She is passionate about fitness and very knowledgeable. She won’t make you feel less than and will help you get towards your goals! Go to her if you want a killer body and killer workouts!
I love working out here! I work with a trainer that cares so much and takes a lot of pride in my success. I feel like the other trainers and staff also care. They are all very friendly from when I walk in to when Im leaving. In the 3+ years I have been training here I have had ups and downs in life and this gym is always somewhere I can go make it better. Love my THRC and my trainer Mikey!
Natalie is an amazing trainer! She is so passionate about her clients and dedicated to making them reach their goals. She is very energetic and will push you to achieve all your goals! I highly recommend!
I trained with JD last year before moving and he was the best trainer I’ve honestly ever had! Every Wednesday workout he brought excitement, accountability, and motivation to get through. I recommended JD to anyone who wants to get better no matter your start, and wants that extra energy!
I have been at this gym for at least 8 years and will never switch. This place is truly one of the best gyms I’ve ever been at. The people are amazing and the trainers have always pushed me further than I ever though I could go. Including Michael Rangel! Til this day, even we aren’t training or doing boot camp he always keeps up with my fitness goals and pushes me to the limit. Thanks Mikey! For everything
I LOVE THRC!! Best gym in town. Kiersten is fantastic, everyone is fantastic! All of the employees are so willing to help you with anything. Good or bad, I ask Guest Service employees or a Trainer to help spot me or help me with random things. They always do and with a smile on their face.
I’ve been a member at THRC for almost two years now. It’s a great atmosphere and everyone is so nice! I’ve belonged to quite a few gyms over the years and THRC is by far the best of them. They also have great personal trainers and group fitness (Mania is my fave!). Ive been training with JD May for the past six months and it’s been awesome. He has an athlete mindset, is always prepared and has enough energy for the both of us during my 5am training sessions.
Natalie and Elias are the best there is POINT BLANK PERIOD. This isnt just a gym its a family. If you on the fence about joining ...its simple...JOIN! Would give more stars but 5 is the limit.
I love THRC!!! This is the best place to work! Kiersten is fantastic with kids in childcare. She has the brightest smile when you walk in the door and she gives you the motivation you need to get your workout in!! Come say hi to her!
THRC is hands down the best gym in town! They have the friendliest staff ready to greet you as soon as you walk in. Ive been training with Mikey for about 8 months and I have had the best experience. I highly suggest checking them out.
THRC is a great gym to go to. I recently signed up for training classes with Paul while still enrolled at the big box gym in town. It was a great time to compare what both gyms had to offer. After continuous problems at the competition with membership, I decided to cancel and enroll at THRC.The staff is friendly, and membership terms and clear cut. Brad the manager went above and beyond to welcome me into this new gym and made signing up a breeze.Paul is great at what he does. He listened to what my body goals were and worked collaboratively with my physical therapist to make sure my workouts were tailored to what I could and could not do.If you are looking for a great gym with great staff, look no further!
Natalie is where it’s at! She is a amazing trainer! Very kind, courteous, and could answer all my concerns. I 100% recommended her as your personal trainer, go check her out!
Wonderful gym with very friendly staff. They always make you feel welcome! I met Kiersten in the daycare and she is super responsible and my son’s favorite! My favorite person too.
Great gym with a lot of equipment variety, friendly staff, and overall a great experience being a member at this gym.
THRC has made such a positive impact on my life! It’s more than just a gym, it’s a positive uplifting community. I have been fortunate to have such an AMAZING trainer, Chas. Chas is constantly showing me how to push my limits with my workouts and how to develop healthy habits. 12/10 recommend to everyone!
I’ve trained with Natalie for the past 6 months and I love working with her! She is very professional and knowledgeable and does a great job challenging me in every workout. I would highly recommend THRC and Natalie as a personal trainer!
Ive been a member of THRC for over a year and have really enjoyed my time there. Joining THRC was the first step in my fitness journey, and at first I was only brave enough to go to the group classes. I eventually moved to working out by myself, and now I work with a personal trainer once a week. I truly believe that one of the big reasons Ive come this far with exercising is because of how comfortable I am at the gym. My trainer, JD, always takes the time time to explain every movement and has really inspired me to keep pushing myself and strive to better myself. The entire staff is always super friendly and helpful, and at this point I think of the gym as my mental escape.
We love Natalie! She is an excellent trainer and is so helpful. I am a beginner and she gave me great advice and is pushing me to my goals!
I’ve been with THRC for almost 10 years now and I love it! I be watched it grow over the years and they have managed to maintain that friendly, tight knit feel. They always greet you by name. I have enjoyed getting to know the staff and trainers throughout the years and you can tell they really do care about you not only as a customer/client but also as a friend. I trained with Mikey Rangel during my pregnancy and It helped so much with labor/delivery and postpartum.
Working with Chas Freeman has completely changed how I think about fitness and health. Hes motivated me to take better care of my body and make working out a part of my routine!
Started at this gym around this time last year weighing almost 150 lbs. Was super overweight for height and age and unhappy with my health. Started training with THRC trainer Chas and he helped me get started on my new and improved healthy life. a year later and I’m almost down to my goal weight of 125 and happier with my health than ever!
The environment of this facility is always so friendly! It has basketball courts, tons of free weights, an outdoor turf field, and, my favorite part, a SAUNA!! Theres a lot of trainers who work throughout the day and all of them are kind and ask you what youre doing today even if they arent your trainer (or if youre not doing training at all!) Overall, this gym is a kindhearted, warm place where I also can get a good sweat sesh in. Plus the owner Randell is always there making sure every thing is top notch and ready to go for his members!
Affordable with TONS of exercise amenities. Elias, one of the personal trainers there, is fantastic to work with. He holds you accountable, he’s friendly, and I always left the gym feeling so accomplished.
Kiersten makes an effort to know everyone that comes in. She pushes me and supports my goals. I love having someone cheer me on during my fitness journey. Thank you thrc for being so supportive!
THRC has both fantastic facilities and staff, I highly recommend their services to anyone looking to get or stay in shape! I have been working with Elias for a few months and he has made the training process approachable, results driven, and totally injury free.
I’ve been here a few times in the past and I’ve enjoyed every second. The staff is always so kind and helpful, especially kiersten. You can really tell she cares so much about her job and the people that surround her.
Been training with JD for almost a year, and I have seen some MAJOR changes. He shows that he really cares about progress and provides tips and workouts outside of our workouts. He answers all of my questions and is full of energy. Hes so motivating and fun to work with. Also, he has jokes. If you like to workout and laugh, JD is your guy!
Do not work here. Leadership loves to pick favorites. Double standards regarding policies and procedures. Management never takes responsibility and always makes you feel like youre wrong. They use information said in confidence against you when it fits their narrative. They are unorganized and lack communication. Commission requirements are unrealistic.
Deciding to get a membership at THRC during my college years in San Marcos was one of the best decisions I ever made during my fitness journey! The memories and relationships I made over the couple of years there are priceless. Every staff member really makes you feel welcome and apart of the THRC family. Specifically JD May. JD is not only an incredible personal trainer and overall employee, but a great friend! He always kept me going with his positive attitude and energetic spirit. I was very sad when I had to cancel my membership and move out of town when I graduated, because no gym or staff compares.
I’ve been to multiple gyms and always feel judged but not here! Everyone at THRC is so welcoming and wants to get to know you & wants to help you achieve your fitness goals! Courtney helps motivate me daily and works with me to achieve my goals! Definitely a family feel and I’m so glad I chose THRC as my home gym!
If anyone is in the NB, San Marcos or Austin area and looking for a gym please check out THRC San Marcos!! Not only are they a great gym but they have amazing trainers and employees that make the experience like no other! I’ve been to many gyms all over the state and THRC is by far my favorite!! When it comes to trainers, JD May is AWESOME! He got me on a full workout and eating plan that changed the game! He also helped me with a home workout plan after I had my son! When it comes to fitness he’s your guy!! 👏🏼💪🏼
Glad I made the change from Golds Gym. The family environment is one of the main reasons I am here. Gage is a great asset to THRC. He genuinely cares about your life, not just health and fitness related, he cares about you and makes you feel like you are a part of the family. He pushes you when you need it and doesnt give up on you. He trains a class of women after long days at work and he always manages to make us all laugh and smile. Glad to have him as a trainer! Thanks Gage!
The THRC is a great community to go workout and has an amazing staff that always welcomes you. Dominque is always at the front desk with a friendly face ready to assist you and welcome you in.
THRC is an amazing gym and one of the best in San Marcos! I had the pleasure of meeting Kiersten and she is super nice and supportive. The entire staff is always willing to lend a helping hand.
All of my family goes to THRC. The gym is always clean and well kept and the workers are very welcoming. Make sure to ask for Natalie when you go, very knowledgeable in fitness and very passionate!
Great trainers.(my trainer Paul really helped me come back from a back injury, increasing my strength so I can keep getting at it😊).. .nice variety of equipment and free weights.. Loads of great classes.. Very nice outdoor facility.. Entire place kept spotless..friendly staff.. Tasty smoothy bar😊
What a fantastic place. Genuinely concerned about my wellness and my fitness goals. State of the art facility and Jake Woten is a top notch professional trainer. At 47 he has me in the best shape of my life and has transformed me not just physically but mentally as well.
Been a member of Texas Health & Raquet Club for over 4 years now & can honestly say it’s a different feel than other gyms. Always greeted with a warm welcome & smile from the staff. Also most of the trainers are amazing, helpful, & passionate about your goals.
Love this place! Every time I walk in I feel welcomed by every employee. So many different things to choose from when working out, there is something for everyones goals! The sauna and outdoor facility are a few of my favorite things :)
I joined THRC about a month ago because my personal trainer Elias started working there and just edged me to try it out. The first training season we had there was INTENSE! With all the equipment available there’s endless possibilities of workouts you could ever imagine and that’s one of many reasons to join. If you ever wanna start a change in your life and want somebody who knows the ins and outs, dos and don’ts in working out. Then Elias is your guy! He always challenging you to be your best version of yourself you could possibly become! Drop sets here and there, extra reps out of no where, and just consistently pushing you and supporting you!!And as for the gym itself, selflessness. Always greeting you as soon as you walk in and also as you walk after your workout. Other personal trainers there always there to assist you for whatever your needs may be. Just overall a great gym and atmosphere to be at and where you actually wanna get work done!
From the moment you walk in, you are consistently greeted by a friendly front desk associate who provide superlative customer service and are always happy to help answer any questions you may have. The gym equipment is well organized and the staff do an amazing job keeping the place clean. Highly recommend this gym!
Great place and very focused trainers. JD is one of the best, knows his stuff and helps you reach your full potential!
This is a great gym! The staff is so welcoming and friendly. Kiersten always greets me with a smile!
Thrc is so fun and there staff is so friendly. Natalie always welcomes me when I come to workout. Great environment!
I have never been a fan of gyms or shared workout spaces...I love THRC!Ive been going here for about a year, and I dont plan on stopping anytime soon.I love the wide array of equipment, the outdoor workout spaces, and the great compliment of classes offered.The trainers are first class, and have become people I consider friends. I ALWAYS feel welcome the second I walk in the door. There is a definitely a community that has grown from this place, and its always great to see fellow THRC peeps out in town.I cannot recommend this gym enough, and I will always sing its praises.Special shout-out to Mikey and Corey, Paige and Sonya, the trainers Ive worked with over my time here who always put my health and wellness first. Bradley and Nick, the people running the show always make this a destination to be excited about. Last but not least, Randall, thank you for always supporting your people, and for supporting your local veterans!
I love everything about this gym! The staff is amazing and always so sweet! Kiersten at front desk is always so helpful!
I took advantage of THRC virtual workouts during COVID 19 and JD Mays Mania and Core/Recovery were hands down the best classes! The workouts were tough and challenging, JD made the workouts fun! If you are ever able, take advantage of the fitness classes by JD!
You got goals? Mikey Rangel is your man. Mikey will push you passed what you thought you were ever capable of while maintaining an environment that makes you feel confident to safely push beyond your limits. The only person you are competing with is yourself and Mikey makes sure of it.
The workout sessions with Rachel are very fun and challenging. She is a great trainer!I really appreciate all the sanitation steps THRC is taking to keep us safe & able to continue working out.
I love THRC! The staff is so friendly and always so helpful. I always have all the equipment I need and love the variety of classes they offer. And shoutout to Gage Anderson for being the best workout partner!!
I like thrc. Pretty roomy great equipment and staff. Special shout out to Kiersten for her wonderful attitude and welcoming personality
THRC is the best gym! I look forward to Mania every Saturday with JD May he is the best trainer! He is very helpful, energetic, and extremely respectful of all of your fitness goals. 💪🏽 Go see JD at THRC!
Hands down the best gym Ive been to. The staff makes you feel welcome as soon as you walk in. I love that the group fitness classes are included in the membership!
THRC helped me stay motivated and fit during quarantine. I couldn’t wait to hit the virtual mania sessions with JD May each week! I highly recommend THRC and JD May as a trainer! 💪💪💪
Great gym with great trainers! I definitely recommend Elias, very invested in what he does and puts together some great workouts!
