Core Progression Elite Personal Training

Negative experience: I will be reviewing this business as an anonymous account because I would rather stay anonymous than reveal my real identity - Core progression has been operating its business for nearly 5 years now. Ive been a member since Renee had been running the show and left shortly after the owner (Luis G.) took over the scene. In short, during Renees time here as the GM the place was actually an amazing personal training gym/service. The old GM actually took care of his clients and cherry picked the top applicants with experience to come work for the gym. That all fell apart when Renee left and Luis took over the place. My suspicion is that Luis wanted to involve himself more into the business and get in the way of Renee which prompted him to leave. On top of that many of the old trainers left as well due to the dissatisfaction of the owner running the place. The place was then becoming overwhelmed with inexperienced trainers with the exception of Raquel, Gabe and David. But only two of them left as we’ll probably due to how poorly ran the place was. To save everyone the time and second hand embarrassment from the unprofessionalism both the owner and the current coaches (except Raquel) avoid this gym at all costs. Theres a reason why trainers are leaving. At least the good ones. Review Edit: I apologize for the “inaccuracies.” I don’t exactly know the spelling of your old GM - maybe was it Renay? Never mind that, moving forward: just because some of the trainers have “credentials” doesn’t mean much nowadays with the support of AI to help many “pass” their examinations. I value real world experience over some piece of paper. I personally believe that trainers who prescribe weighted box jumps to beginners should think about the consequences of the exercise selection. I wont name names but when one of your trainers made me perform weighted box jobs I almost injured my knees… I tried to also explain to said trainer to modify the exercises and stick to my goals which he “agreed” on doing but ended up still continuing on with questionable exercises. When I asked him if he was tracking my exercises because I noticed he would make me do the same muscle group as the previous session he said he was… when I asked if he could show me he ended up making an excuse how he left it at home, not sure what that means. I wont go over the details… avoid

Negative experience: Walked in to become a 1st time client & didn’t feel welcomed at all. Stood there at the front while 2 trainers looked at me but didn’t acknowledge me or welcome me in. No one greeted me or said, “I’ll be right there with you”…stood there for about 20 min before I left. I even made movement by walking around the front area reading flyers on the walls making it OBVIOUS I was new & interested. It turned me off, so I walked away. It’s unfortunate bc I would have became a dedicated long term client.

Fantastic experience: My wife found Core Progression after having our first child. Their tailored programs, designed with post-pregnancy needs in mind, have helped me regain my strength and confidence. The understanding and encouragement from Marie, Aubrie, Jasper, and the team have been incredibly uplifting for her. Their focus on total wellness has been key to Kristian’s recovery and fitness journey. Definitely recommend for new moms looking to get back into shape!

Fantastic experience: The trainer Josiah was great! Everything I told him I needed to work on was incorporated in our workouts. I was having ankle issues which was causing issues with my knees. He had me do some movements to strengthen the muscles connecting to my ankle and my ankle mobility has improved so much. Overall I am much stronger and more knowledgable about what movements work best for me.

Fantastic experience: Coach is great! They will push you to your limits and you will fell good about it. Sweet!

Fantastic experience: Core Progression is a unique training experience. I have worked with personal trainers for over 15 years and nothing compares to the laser focus on you as a person, adapting to your needs and goals on a daily basis. At age 77, I am not the usual gym client. Most people in my age just want to maintain fitness, not losing more strength and mobility. But I want to gain function, strength and balance. And this gym’s approach is making that happen. It is not a short term effort but lifelong and I am committed to be the best I can be with the help of this team.

Fantastic experience: Great atmosphere, fantastic Trainers . Professional environment. Recommend to anyone looking for guidance to reach your fitness and health goals

Negative experience: Went in to check this place out. Franchisee Renay didn't want to show me around, would only give pricing. Gave a story about how he once went into a gym, wasn't able to look around and it made him want to join more. Eventually did show me around after some pushing and I signed up after talking about my extensive work travel. He made it seem like it wouldn't be a big deal and many current clients travel. Since joining, there's been a lot of turnover with trainers and clients. While on vacation I received a text from my trainer (also the Manager). She'd decided to leave as well. I was told the transition would be smooth. It was anything but. I had to reach out to Renay because my next training day was coming and I didn’t have a trainer assigned, then he asks me to wait until after Thanksgiving and take the week off. Finally met the new trainer and she wanted to start at square one with measurements, let’s chat about goals, etc. This was the exact opposite of what the Manager had told me. During this session I learned the assigned trainer was new to Core Progression and not familiar with InBody Scans as well as other very common training elements. Everybody has to start somewhere but I went from a Managing trainer with years of experience to a novice. Between other health issues and the lack of communication here, I decided it was time to move on. Really thought this would be a better option for all involved rather than wasting everyone’s time and taking up a prime-time slot that wouldn’t be used long term. Kindly reached out to Renay to let him know I wouldn’t be extending and to see if we could work something out with the remaining sessions. He immediately got defensive and responded in an accusatory manner noting my ‘timing has been bad’, it’s ‘hard to be consistent with that much time in between sessions even for (Manager)’ and ‘typically that will take clients 2-3 months to consume’. His response was immature and from far-left field. I can see why he has so much turnover now. Kid has a lot of growing to do.

Fantastic experience: The one on one training I've had here has had such a positive impact on my lifestyle. Having a personal trainer to hold me accountable and critique my form to make sure I'm making the most out of our sessions is so beneficial and exactly what I needed. My strength and endurance has improved tremendously, and the nutrition advice has been so helpful as well. This really has been a great investment for a healthier future.

Fantastic experience: I’ve been training with Will at Core Progression for just over 90 days and the gains I’ve made in strength, balance, endurance and confidence are staggering. I highly recommend this program to take back your health.

Negative experience: Can't see the pricing

Fantastic experience: I've been with Core Progression for about four months now, and the rapid transformation has been incredible. I used to lead a sedentary lifestyle with back and knee pain, but thanks to my trainers—first Cameron and now Josiah—I'm nearing peak fitness. My strength, endurance, and balance have all vastly improved. The pain is still present but nowhere near as noticeable. I recently took a trip to New England, and unlike before, I had no issues with long walks and exploring. Gains in the gym have me doing more to further my fitness outside. Truly amazing. I can't thank you enough!

Fantastic experience: This institution has changed the way i think about working out and has made me a better person overall. I am grateful for my trainer Will , Renay and all the other brilliant members of the team. They put in a lot of effort to make sure you feel good and keep at it .

Fantastic experience: Want to give a big shoutout out to Renay and Marina!!! They both have been incredibly helpful and very supportive in me accomplishing my goals. I highly recommend any one of them and I can’t wait to get back there again!!

Fantastic experience: Best place for personal training! Ben is such a great trainer. He pushes you and holds you accountable. Highly recommend!!

Fantastic experience: After experiencing a back injury and being sedentary for a few months I knew I needed to get into shape! My knees were becoming a concern and I felt that, should I need a knee replacement, I wasn’t strong enough for rehab. I signed up for 90 days to build strength and stamina and to improve my core and balance. Renay assigned Ben to work with me. That was a year ago!!! My initial assessment was so underwhelming, that there was no place to go but up. Ben has been just what I needed to stick with a consistent program. I’m motivated to achieve results every session and he pushes me to limits I would never have reached on my own. He doesn’t just try to see how much weight I can maneuver, but plans exercises that have improved my mobility and stamina. I know longer feel a knee replacement is in the immediate future and I’ve developed a confidence in a variety of activities. I look forward to continuing to challenge myself with Ben’s guidance and direction! All the trainers at Core and the overall vibe are inspiring. I would (and do) recommend that anyone who’s considering a training program needs to try Core Progression. It’s an amazing organization.

Fantastic experience: I would definitely recommend Core Progression Elite Personal Training. Thank you Renay for encouraging and guiding during initial consultation. Thank you for not letting me give up on the decision for joining. I am so glad that I took this chance, This experience has been life changing. HUGE THANK YOU to my trainer Hannah for her constant support, training, guidance and cheering. I look forward to our every session and this place has become a happy place for me :) Thank you for always being so kind and always guiding through your best expertise. YOU ARE AMAZING ✨ I am so grateful to Hannah and Renay. This experience has been genuinely life shaping. Can’t thank them enough✨ If anyone is looking for personal training, Hands down this is the best place. Go for it and experience this amazing journey.

Fantastic experience: Enjoy training here! I was a total newbie, but they start slow and build over time. I am shocked I’ve kept up and have been able to prioritize my health for the first time ever. Thomas is great too!

Fantastic experience: I’ve struggled with my health and weight management all my life. Bipolar 1 has made it difficult to keep routines, and a history of eating disorders made it dangerous. When I realized I was 25 and 275 pounds, I knew I needed to do SOMETHING different. Working out on my own wasn’t working, and dieting (even with a good knowledge of nutrition) wasn’t sustainable for me. I joined Core Progression on a whim, and it is the best decision for my health I have ever made. In my consultation, Renay talked to me about my history with exercise and my health, discussed my goals, and was very warm and understanding. I felt no judgement when I was vulnerable about my struggles, only compassion. He then took the time to assign me a trainer he felt would be best for me, and since then Hannah has been my number one cheerleader as well as an incredible trainer. She encourages me to push myself, but often recognizes my limits before I do and adjusts our plans accordingly. It is thanks to her that I have seen a significant change in my stamina, strength, and flexibility. What I really like about our time together is there hasn’t been a focus on losing weight (something that I’m prone to and is very toxic for me), only on improving my strength and endurance, getting healthier by feeling the physiological changes in my body. I notice these things every day in small ways- walking for longer, climbing stairs with ease, feeling restless when I haven’t gotten out and moved. The importance of growing muscle to eventually burn fat and how it is a process that takes time was stressed to me, especially when I got frustrated early on. At the time of writing this I’ve hit about 3 and a half months with Core Progression, and that long period is over and I am finally losing weight. I know that long of a wait can be off putting, but truly this has kept me on track and helped build habits and results that exercising on my own or dieting would. I am likely going to extend my contract when my initial six months is up! The facility itself is very nice- cozy and familiar, never too crowded. Seeing everyone working with their trainers is so motivating, and you can tell just from looking around the trust between trainer and trainee is strong. Everyone is kind and encouraging, greets you and says goodbye, it’s truly a safe place for anyone. There’s water and energy drinks as well as protein snacks for sale at very reasonable prices, and a water fountain to fill your own bottle. Two restrooms with showers should you need them, and The Mobility Clinic has an office inside as well, so if you get hurt or need a little extra help you can schedule something right there (though the trainers are also very good about making sure you’re properly stretched and warmed up for your session, and often suggest and run through mobility exercises if you say something). If you’ve gotten to the end of this, you’re probably truly considering Core Progression, and are doing as much research as you can to find the right place (like I did). You might be nervous (like I was), worried about such a commitment (like I was), and just wanting to do what’s best for your health (like I was). I can say with certainty that everyone here is kind, attentive, supportive, and will support you in making the right choices for you. You won’t feel pressured into a contract, you won’t feel excluded based on weight or experience level. I would choose Core Progression over and over again, and I am so glad I took the chance with them.

Fantastic experience: Best decision I have made in 20 years. I love it. Stephanie is amazing and keeps me focused.

Fantastic experience: Really Kind and caring trainers at this gym. they really try and help better your experience and help with nutrition advice and different ways you can work out at home when you don't meet up. I would rate this place higher if I could.

Fantastic experience: BEST SPOT IN NORTH AUSTIN FOR PERSONAL TRAINING. Really became a family vibe after going here for 7 months training with Kelsey and the whole CP team. Renay runs a great business here and you can feel it as soon as you walk in the door. I was always heard, pushed to the right kind of limit in my training, and literally never had one bad experience in my time here. Any fitness level, any body type, or any comfort level will be successful here and feel like a champ from day 1. Met a lot of goals here and will miss it! Maybe I'll come back one day bc I already miss Kels! highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: I've now been going here for a few months and it's been a blast. Everyone is friendly and engaging, the coaches are fun and motivating, and my trainer, Kelsey, is amazing. I highly recommend this place.

Fantastic experience: If you are ready for a physical and mental transformation Marina at Core Progression Elite is your gal! I have been training with Marina since October 2022 and I have been very pleased with my results. Marina has an extensive fitness and nutrition background that allows her to meet the needs of her clients at every fitness level. She is authentically interested in my overall well-being. I can count on her sharing positive words of encouragement throughout every training session and she routinely reaches out with tips and reminders during the week. If you are ready for some fun, a little bit of sweat, and big results start/continue your fitness journey with Marina at Core Progression Elite.

Fantastic experience: I started at Core Progression in Oct 2022, and I love the facility, the management and the trainers. It was the best decision I made to get the star support from Renay and team. I love the motivational emails I get from Renay which perfectly compliments my journey. They also do a monthly fit check which is not about just the numbers but also check in on your stress levels, work load, sleep and other factors to better understand your situation. The facility is super well maintained and not crowded and each trainer is amazing. My trainer, Stephanie is amazing she is kind and adjust according to your needs, cares about your pain points and constantly checks in on you to give you alternatives to help stay consistent. She is very responsive and keeps me accountable in nutrition, sleep, exercise on a daily basis through texts even outside my training time. She is also very kind and preceptive to how you are responding to each exercise and guides you safely to push yourself and focus on form. I highly recommend Core Progression to help you on your health journey, you will not regret it!

Fantastic experience: While hesitant from past training experiences, in May 2022 I had a new mindset and was ready to try again, so I joined Core Progression with Stephanie as my trainer. From the moment I met her and since I’ve been there, our personal training always felt just that- PERSONAL to me and my needs. She’s listened to my history of past experiences and eating disorders, always made sure I was comfortable with our training/meal plans, and even pushed me to eat MORE than I was normally eating. She’s made sure my sleep and stress levels were prioritized, even before nutrition and workouts, which was unheard of for me. She consistently shows she genuinely cares about teaching me skills in all aspects of health that I can utilize outside of our sessions, so that I can enjoy life AND get the results I want. Don’t be fooled, even though she’s the sweetest, she’s definitely aggressive with our training sessions, and I physically crawl out of that gym every time we work together! Stephanie has single-handedly made me stronger, both mentally and physically, and I look forward to working with her for as long as she can stand me :)

Positive experience: I’ve been training with MARINA for a year now and she is AH-MAH-ZING! My body and approach to eating has transformed beyond my expectations. I really enjoy training with Marina because she: - understands a woman’s body composition - Tailors exercises to my strength, & endurance goals - Listens to me when a move feels “off” and works with me to stretch out muscles for better mobility - co-creates a thoughtful nutrition plan - identifying macro goals & weekly meal plans - She is always on time, and checks in with me weekly - & a key differentiator - helps me to navigate & develop mental fortitude to push myself through challenging workouts - she is incredibly encouraging! I’ve been very impressed with Marina and look forward to continuing my health & wellness journey with her. She goes above and beyond, is clearly devoted to holistic health & wellness, and is a true professional.

Fantastic experience: Can’t say enough amazing things about this studio and Renay! I could not only see amazing results but I could feel them. Renay knew exactly when to push me and when to ease up. All thanks to him I’m in the best shape of my life.

Fantastic experience: I ve been working with Thomas since August. They really work with providing personalized workouts to cater to your fitness goals and I ve seen a remarkable improvement in my fitness journey. My postpartum strength is back to where is was pre pregnancy within 5 months.

Fantastic experience: I started private sessions at Core Progression in the summer. When I arrived, I was dealing with daily chronic pain and just in a bad way. I got set up with Thomas who worked me up slowly. He checked in with me during each set, adjusted weights and reps to my comfort while at the same time providing a challenge. Thanks to him, in less than six months I’m pain-free and so much stronger! Core Progression’s facility is also very clean and well-stocked with basic and advanced equipment. The rest of the staff is very friendly and helpful, and I would absolutely recommend this place to anyone looking to get started in strength training. 10/10.

Fantastic experience: I've had a great experience all around with Core Progression Personal Training. Marina is quick to communicate, friendly, and easy to work with. I highly recommend Marina. Her attention to detail and customization for my exercise needs, goals, and capabilities have been fantastic. Marina really helped me establish a working, sustainable routine and I haven't felt this good in years. It's a great, local business with great service. You get what you pay for with a trainer. This has been one of the best experiences.

Fantastic experience: I've had a great time working with the trainers at Core Progression. Everyone is kind and patient, but don't mistake that for a lack of challenge. My time so far has been constantly challenging, exciting, and informative. My time under Marina has been informative and effective. I've learned not just workouts and movements, but also eating strategies that are both functional and health without food stigmas.

Fantastic experience: I have been training at Core Progression in North Austin since October of 2020 and I have had amazing results. My trainer, Marina has given me so much guidance with healthy eating and exercise habits. She focuses on my individual needs and has created a diet and workout plan that I can stick to. Every monthly check in I have continued to gain strength and endurance. I sleep better at night and I feel better during the day. She is flexible with my schedule and gives me at-home workouts on weeks I cannot make it to the facility. She makes it so easy for me to stick to my fitness plan and she is super supportive on days where my mental health gets me down and unmotivated. Working with Marina has helped me make big changes with my physical appearance, my physical health, and my overall happiness and confidence. All the trainers focus ontheir clients individual needs and work hard to help them meet and exceed their goals.

Fantastic experience: It took me a long time to stop into Core Progression. I drove by every day and then finally, a little over a year ago, motivated by watching my elderly parents struggle as they age, I walked in. It was one of the best decisions I ever made in my life. I'm in my mid-50's, a former gym owner and competitive weight lifter, but the years have not been kind. If you're thinking "I've tried the gym before" or "I've worked with a trainer before", you need to forget that because this is different experience. Renay gets more out of me in our 30 minute workouts than I ever imagined I (or anyone!) could, and with the variety of equipment I'm able to perform exercises I'd never even conceive on my own. I feel the positive impact on my life every day, from my cardio endurance to my improved strength to increased mobility. And, yeah, it's nice to be asked "have you been working out?" The entire team of trainers are ego-free, focused on their clients, welcoming and friendly, and the other clients come in all shapes, sizes and ages. If you're worried about "I need to get in shape before I go" or "everyone will be watching me", there's nothing to worry about. We're all working too hard! You will fit in just fine, and you'll leave feeling proud and looking forward to getting back.

Fantastic experience: I joined Core progression around a month back. My trainer Stephanie has really helped me establish a regular exercise regimen. She helps me push my boundaries and get stronger with each session. When it comes to accountability, I share my meals with her so I can focus on my diet as well. This is the first time I am working out in a gym setting and Stephanie has really helped me focus on and build my form. Stephanie’s awesome energy is contagious and helps me challenge myself to keep getting better :) I can see visible changes in such a short time and highly recommend PT. If you stay in North Austin and looking for PT, then check out Core Progression!

Fantastic experience: I have joined core progression few months ago, I have been working with Stephanie as my coach this entire time. Stephanie has been awesome. She customizes my workouts at every stage. Her constant motivation helps me be on track to achieve my fitness goals. I highly enjoyed working with Stephanie.

Fantastic experience: Core progression is a great place to have a PT experience, start a workout, and build muscle. Their environment is really good - fun, great management, cleanliness, professionalism. Natalie is the best trainer ever! She has helped me getting stronger and having a fun workout experience. She always motivates me to push harder and more and now I am actually excited to work-out. Highly recommend this place if you're interested in PT.

Fantastic experience: It is an amazing place for personal training, the facilities are super clean, there is a limited number of people, the equipment is great, the trainers are fantastic, and everybody is very welcoming. I was looking to build strength after some health issues and mostly recover from my frozen shoulder, I cannot say enough good things about my trainer, Cameron, and the detail, effort and interest he shows in my training and every session. I have recovered my mobility and range of motion almost completely; I feel stronger than ever. If you are looking for a place that will invest and care about you, come here. I have tried personal trainers before but usually they just give you generic training plans and are ready for the next client, not the case here, this is true personal training, they are as invested as you are. It is worth every dollar.

Fantastic experience: I’ve been going to Core Progression for 3 months now and it has been a great experience. Amazing trainers and awesome facility. Highly recommended!

Fantastic experience: Fantastic program. The best trainers. Their knowledge is real and with professional education. This is a different level Gemma traditional gym.

Fantastic experience: Extremely supporting, encouraging, and methodical team and process! I realize with each session that I'll get out what I put in, but that I'll be kept on my toes. The pairing of trainer with client is so important, and it's been a truly fantastic experience. Go team go!

Fantastic experience: Love it here at Core Progression! This is my first time doing personal training or any training in my life and they have made it very comfortable and giving me a tailored experience!! Stephanie and Renay are the best!! Thank you!

Fantastic experience: I can't say enough good things about my trainer, Natalie and the North Austin facility! I've never been a "morning person" but I actually look forward to getting up extra early to hit the gym because I always leave feeling stronger, more energetic, and positive about my life. The facility is clean, has good working equipment, is never over-crowded, and has a great atmosphere of friendly-yet-serious training. Natalie really knows what she's doing and keeps me accountable which is what I need. She is really great to work with - motivational, keeps things interesting yet challenging, has great nutrition suggestions, and doesn't mind counting reps for me until I'm fully awake! It's been 4 months now for me and I am definitely seeing results. Any of their trainers can help you reach your goals too!

Fantastic experience: Core progression has been great for me in the last 3 months. My trainer - Natalie - always pushes me and my muscle definition has improved way faster than what I was able to accomplish working out on my own.

Fantastic experience: Core Progression has been a complete life-changer for me and I am so thankful that I have joined! I've seen such amazing results in only a few months and I am so excited to see how much more progress I can continue to make. The best way to really describe the entire experience is through their name: "Elite Personal Training". From your first visit with a non-aggressive, personalized consultation, to your first meeting/measurement with your trainer, to every workout session afterwards. Every moment you spend, you get complete, personalized and dedicated attention. Your workouts will never be easy but they are always different, keep you engaged, and you feel a true sense of accomplishment after each one. Whether you're just starting out on your fitness journey, or you're looking to take your fitness to the next level - Renay and his team will help you achieve what you want.

Fantastic experience: Great gym with amazing personal trainers

Fantastic experience: Core Progression Austin is outstanding! I have done personal training since Core opened in Fall 2019 and have achieved amazing results through the expertise, guidance, and support from their trainers. Renay (GM) is phenomenal. He’s passionate about health and fitness, and truly delivers an exceptional level of personal training. Not only will you be successful in meeting your goals and achieving results, you’ll also be well-educated along the way. (Plus you’ll become stronger!) While you’re responsible for showing up and being consistent, you will be met with the exact support you need to push through any challenges along your health or fitness journey. I cannot recommend Core Progression Austin enough! Bonuses — the gym is clean, not crowded, convenient scheduling, great equipment, and has an inviting environment

Fantastic experience: LOVE Core Progression!! I have never been to such a great workout atmosphere that’s effective , positive , and motivating !! Everyone here is great like a little family. I have been working out with Kelsey as my PT and she’s amazing and has brought me results and has inspired me to keep going !! I love the Management Renay and how professional and also fun atmosphere this place is and I am always excited about showing up!! Thanks to Core Progression!!!

Fantastic experience: I've loved working with Kelsey! It's a friendly and encouraging environment. Would recommend to anyone looking to start something guided to learn the skills necessary to continue forth afterwards.

Fantastic experience: Want to be held accountable and also be encouraged to meet *your* goals? Want to have a near-private workout with top notch equipment? Want to have trainers who know you even though you're not their client? Want to see how you stack up against other clients and the trainers? Come to Core Progression! I train with Natalie (who's awesome), but I'd train with any of the staff here............ Oh, and if you've got nagging injuries, they've got that covered too. Come work on your recovery with an on-site physical therapist. What are you waiting for?

Fantastic experience: The entire Core Progression team is outstanding! Kind, fun and supportive - they truly help you achieve all your goals :) my favorite place to be throughout the week!

Fantastic experience: Renay and all the trainers awesome. Always greet warmly when I come in and are super friendly. Renay’s playlists could be better but nobody’s perfect. Check them out.

Fantastic experience: I started working out at Core Progression in March of this year and I've been satisfied with the results. Coach Marina challenges me to give it my best during every rep of my workout. I like the people, the atmosphere, and the workouts. That's hard to find.

Fantastic experience: Been coming here for about 3 months now working with Natalie and on occasion some help with Renay and so far seen a ton of progress , I personally have gotten alot of help for my form and techniques from them when it comes to my workouts as well as improved overall strength and endurance, my wife on the other hand is actually excited to go to the gym now and has lost over 20lbs. As a member of the military, highly recommended for anyone wanting to get in shape as well as improving your own personal fitness goals

Fantastic experience: Core progression has an amazing set of trainers! The personal attention and focus on your goals far surpass a big box gym. Natalie has helped my muscle definition and strength improve drastically, more than any other trainer. I highly recommend core progression if you want a personal and tailored experience to achieve your goals!

Fantastic experience: I was a little apprehensive joining because I’ve joined gyms before and got little to no results. However, with this place, I not only started seeing results, but I received great care regarding my routine, and eating habits. Marina is more than a trainer to me. She’s a badass person that never lets me give up! She keeps me moving toward my goals, motivates me to be better each and every time I show up. I couldn’t be happier with my workouts and how my body is shaping up. Thank you Marina for never giving up on me and not letting me give up on myself! #bestworkouttrainerever

Fantastic experience: I love core progression! My trainer Cameron is amazing. He knows just what to do to push me and motivate me to make progress. I highly recommend Core Progression Elite Personal Training.

Fantastic experience: I have been working out at Core with Kelsey since August and it has been an amazing experience. I feel stronger and have lost almost 20 lbs since August. Kelsey is fun and positive and makes getting up at 5:30 worth it. Looking forward yo continuing yo get stronger and leaner. Thanks Kelsey snd Core!!

Fantastic experience: With so many options out there today to help you reach your fitness goals, it can be hard to find a business that delivers on both the facility side and the people side. Not only is their facility top-notch in terms of equipment, cleanliness, fun environment, and professionalism of management - their people are outstanding. They build complete trust by listening to your fitness goals and developing personalized plans and schedules for you to get there - and give you that extra push and motivation that you just can't get with DIY training. Special thanks to my trainer Mark who's not only pushed me to reach goals I never thought I could reach over the past year+, but who also helped me recover from a major knee surgery with a tailored plan to re-build my strength quickly without risking any setbacks along the way!

Fantastic experience: I've been training with Marina now for about 3 months and I have enjoyed my sessions with her. She is great with communication, keeps me motivated and pushes me to train harder. The staff is always pleasant and fun to talk to. Their energy keeps you motivated. I would definitely recommend core progression if you are looking for a personal trainer.

Fantastic experience: Great facility with state of the art equipment. Trainers are also very friendly and inspirational and make sure to work with our goals and capabilities. They also make sure that keep up with the hygiene requirements for COVID. The only thing I wish they would change is the choice of music - sometimes the playlist is not appealing to majority.

Fantastic experience: Let me start by saying this is my first experience with personal training - AND hold on tight....this is a long review. I was very nervous at first, but my trainer, Natalie, has made it so fantastic! She is extremely thorough when explaining proper form, eating habits, and lifestyle changes that will help me accomplish my goals. She goes above and beyond, always. She'll text me to remind me to eat before our workouts, records me while doing a certain exercise to make sure I can see what I'm doing right or what I need to modify, and is very flexible with her schedule. She's also extremely compassionate and very in tune with how I'm feeling that day. She can tell if I'm struggling in a certain area and she needs to change up our routine a bit, on the fly or spends extra time to make sure I understand how to do an exercise the right way, without hurting myself. The gym as a whole is also great. Everyone is very professional, but they're not afraid to be silly, too....I love this. Almost every time I come in for a session, I'm greeted with a big hello from every trainer. It's pretty cool. I never feel ANY judgement. Only lots of love from the trainers that really want to help you improve. Now, the really good stuff - I'm seeing results!! Of course the physical results are already stellar. After only almost 3 months, I'm more toned, my muscles have grown at a measurable rate, and I don't feel like I'm going to die during a workout :) The mental/lifestyle changes I've seen are also amazing - I'm happier, less stressed, less tired during the day, AND I don't drink alcohol during the week anymore. At all. This is huge. Anyway, Natalie is a dang saint and I'm SO glad I started training with her. It's seriously worth every penny. Loooove her and this place!

Fantastic experience: I had an incredible time here training with Renay. I am so ecstatic about my results from the past 6 months of training! Not only was Renay willing to work with my schedule, but he also possessed so much knowledge about how to build muscle and do workouts appropriately. He was a joy to be around and always motivated me to do my best! Workouts were challenging and each workout was unique! I can not say enough good things about this trainer and this company!

Fantastic experience: Marina is the best. I’ve made a lot of progress with her help. ✨

Fantastic experience: I love the environment here and how it feels personal and never over crowded. All the trainers make an effort to say good morning or have a good weekend to anyone coming or going. This has been my first experience with formal training and Marina has been great. She knows when to push you but also knows when you look like you need some water or a breather. I would recommend core progression to anyone (at any skill level) who has a fitness goal in mind.

Fantastic experience: I worked with Marina starting last winter and she was incredible! She pushed me, encouraged me, and definitely kicked my butt in our workouts! She is so easy to get along with and friendly that our sessions flew by. Definitely would recommend Core Progression and Marina.

Fantastic experience: I love working out with Marina! It’s amazing how much a trained professional can make all the difference. Marina starts everyday with “how are you today” and she really tailors the workout to be both challenging and accommodating to what my goals are but also whats going on in my life right now. I can’t wait to complete my benchmark workout to track my progres!

Fantastic experience: LOVE LOVE! I have had such a great experience with core progression especially with my trainer Marina! I have struggled finding a workout place that fits me post college athletics. Marina understands where I am at and where I want to be again and has amazing workouts that are personalized for me and push me to the max! HIGHLY RECOMMEND core progression to get you back to where you want to be! Everyone there is awesome but Marina is the best!!

Fantastic experience: I ABSOLUTELY LOVE Core Progression!!! The atmosphere is so awesome! The trainers are friendly, fun to talk to, super knowledgeable and always chime in to keep you motivated! Marina is so FREAKING AMAZING! I have been training with her for about 4 months now and have seen major progress in every aspect! She ALWAYS finds different ways to challenge me and push my body to reach its full potential, even when it seems I’ve hit my limits, she motivates me to push farther and train harder! I love her personality, her energy, and I ALWAYS look forward to my training sessions!!! #BestTrainerEver ‍♀️

Fantastic experience: Marina from core progression was my trainer for the last 6 months! She helped teach me the basics of working out, the importance of diet, and got me in the best shape I have ever been in! I cannot wait to get to the gym in the future! Renae was also extremely helpful and friendly Everytime I came in along with the rest of the staff!

Fantastic experience: I can't say enough about this place! Marina is amazing! She will coach you, motivate and push you to finish strong. I highly recommend giving core progression a try, you will not be disappointed!!!

Fantastic experience: This place is awesome! The training programs are so tailored and the trainers are great. I’ve never worked with a personal trainer before but Marina has been wonderful! She’s been so willing to meet me where I’m at and is really encouraging during our sessions. I’ve loved my experience here so far. If you’re looking for an excellent personal trainer, definitely check this place out.

Fantastic experience: This is an excellent place to train and to achieve your goals. Gym is very clean, high quality and having friendly staff, great trainers and provides low float one on one training sessions. Glad i choose this gym for personal training. When it comes to personal trainer Natalie, i am very grateful to have one like her. She is an excellent and friendly trainer who brings great energy and good vibe to session. She is very knowledgeable and attentive. She understands my physical strength and works on plan to achieve my goals. She keeps encouraging during workouts and also sends videos of session workouts to motivate. She educate you on each workout. I am sure i will achieve my goal under her training. I will definitely recommend Natalie as a personal trainer.

Fantastic experience: Love training here with Natalie! It’s an Awesome facility with great knowledgeable trainers. It’s a great investment for your health, and you’ll definitely see results. Work outs are specialized and tailored to your goals. Natalie has been helping me work on my back/posture issues and it’s been a rewarding experience so far! Definitely recommend training with her!

Fantastic experience: Can’t say enough about how impressed I am by the trainers, the quality and customization of training for their clients, and the gym itself. I’ve been to lots of trainers and gyms in the past all over downtown Austin and northern Austin — this is one of the best experiences I’ve had yet. I tend to prefer a smaller, more private training experience with great energy and good people who genuinely care about their team and their clients. I see that here!! The trainers are skillful, take time to teach you, supportive, laser-focused on form, and will push you in the best way to reach your personal goals. There is a humanness and “Can-Do” attitude among all the trainers, which is especially evident. As though that’s not enough, just today... I was impressed with how patient and yet still motivating a trainer was with a client who was having a rough day — I’ve never seen a trainer invest so much of their heart and mind into a client’s success and that was moving to see. The gym experience gives me Dogpound vibes. ;) Also -- they keep it spotless and sanitized. Shout out to my trainer, Renay, who is incredible! I’m lucky to have found this place and can’t recommend it enough.

Fantastic experience: Great place to train, seeing great results. Mark and Renay are great motivators whole keeping it fun

Fantastic experience: Great place to get RESULTS!!

Positive experience: Nice quiet gym, ideal for one on one or small group training sessions. Programs are more geared toward cross fit and interval style training. If you’re specifically looking for core strength, balance, and flexibility training, this is not the place.

Fantastic experience: Simply love the vibe! Super personalized and although I haven’t been going too regularly I can see a change in my body from the strength training. Tried semi privates with the amazing Sandy for two months now onto some privates with Theo! Looking to be healthy hit up Core Progression :)

Fantastic experience: New, Clean facilities, Theo is the BEST!

Fantastic experience: This gym is awesome. The group classes are really fun, especially if you train with friends. The trainers are really knowledgeable and friendly. They really motivate you to push harder and challenge yourself on every workout. I highly recommend it.

Fantastic experience: I love this place!! The trainers are amazing and the workouts are customized to your own needs. You can feel and see results because the exercise is goal-oriented. Definitely a must-do every week.

Fantastic experience: If you want an exercise that is fun, works every muscle that you didn't know that existed this sis the place to be.

Fantastic experience: Core progression elite training staff and managers are some of the best in the area. They are willing to work with you and your time constraints. To insure that you will meet and exceed your personal life goal within your fitness level.

Fantastic experience: I am so grateful I found Core Progression Elite Personal Training! I could not be more impressed with the staff, trainers and gym itself. My experience thus far cannot begin to compare to my experience in various gyms over the last 20 yrs. They just simply don't compare!I am incredibly impressed with the general manager, Renay. He's been amazing with his communication which has in turn helped me with my accountability. I had to reschedule last minute one day because my daughter was sick. He was very understanding and even asked how she was doing the next time we spoke. While I'm very aware that I am just one of many members, I continuously get the personalized attention and tools I need to succeed. I feel like they're on this journey with me to ensure my success. I've been training with Sandy who has been an absolute blessing! She's the perfect mix of what I see as the ideal trainer. She's easy to talk to, genuine, encouraging and extremely passionate about helping her clients. At the same time, she's incredibly knowledgeable and will push you while educating you on proper form (to reduce risk of injury and maximize results). All while mixing workouts up to keep things fun so you will never be bored! I most definitely recommend coming in to try out a class, the first one is free so there's nothing to lose (but some lbs!).
