The best. Highly trained and passionate about what he does. Andrew is kind, asks questions and listens to tailor a program that is specific for you. My husband has suffered with back pain for the past 5 years and tried multiple programs with no relief. After the first couple of sessions with Andrew, he has experienced dramatic improvement. Andrew is a blessing!

Excellent strength training gym for real people from all walks of life. Strong positive and welcoming environment that is encouraging to everyone equally across gender, age, experience, or current state of fitness. Very detailed and insightful personalized coaching even during group classes. The building outside is nothing to look at, but the people inside are awesome.

Dr. Layne is knowledgeable and professional; he can certainly help you reach your health goals. Most important, he's kind, flexible and creative, precisely what those with limiting health conditions need. Highly recommend.

After nearly a month of starting our 9 year old son at Layne Performance, we have already seen huge gains– in his confidence, comfort in a gym setting, and willingness to push himself physically. He is growing stronger every week, and we couldn't thank Andrew Layne enough!Our main goal in establishing our son with a professional was to instill in him an interest and appreciation for weightlifting. It's fair to say that there's no better place than with Layne Performance. Give it a shot– you won't regret the experience!

Andrew Layne is extremely knowledgable and passionate about fitness and weightlifting. I came to Layne Performance in January after doing weight training for about year on my own but felt that I wasn't making the progress that I had hoped for. Andrew has been so supportive and helpful in allowing me to achieve my goals. He always gives such helpful feedback in the gym and answers all my questions expertly. The facility is super clean and comfortable and genuinely has become my happy place! I have improved so much and am so happy that I found Layne Performance. If you want to improve your mental and physical state, or simply just learn a more about fitness, definitely come to Layne!

I started working out at Layne Performance about a month ago on the recommendation of a friend who has been working out with Andrew Layne for several years. I am 66 years old, and although I’m very active, I was missing strength training in my routine, something that’s so important as we age. This part of exercising is tough for me, as I’ve never liked the gym. I don’t have the self discipline to work out on my own, nor am I confident that I could do it without injuring myself, so I need the structure of a recurring appointment and the expertise of a trainer. I’ve worked with trainers before, but not like Andrew. He’s a credentialed expert, and the workouts he designs for me are intended to keep me in shape while avoiding injury. The workouts are challenging, so I know I’ll get good results, and they’re also varied. Not only are we focusing on a total body workout, but I’m also not getting bored with a routine, which has always been a problem for me in the past. I actually look forward to my training sessions with Andrew, so I know I’ve found the right place and person to help me get stronger, improve my overall fitness, and not injure myself doing so. I highly recommend Layne Performance for the best in personal training.

Layne Performance is a really fun welcoming gym of like minded ordinary people that love self improvement. Regardless of your background, fitness level, etc, this gym is for anyone, and everyone. I've been going to Layne Performance for a little under two months, and I can confidently say that my technique and confidence under the bar has improved dramatically. If you want to achieve mental and physical goals you never thought possible, Layne Performance is the gym for you.

Lucky to have been able to find this coach in the Gainesville area that is so knowledgeable and caring about clients. Andrew Layne has helped me excel in the art of weightlifting and I definitely owe a huge chunk of my strength and health that I have today, to him. ...Also, Layne Performance has an absolutely beautiful (and clean) facility!

Young survivor of multiple strokes. Have worked my way up from total paralysis with numerous Drs of PT, therapists, physicians, etc, and done loads on my own. Andrew is a blessing. His knowhow, experience and absolute dedication to match where I am on the moment had allowed me to make steady progress in things most coaches would have no clue about. Highly recommend Layne Performance and encourage you to try.

Started here about 3 weeks ago and have loved it. I trained in high school but Andrew really takes you back to the basics to ensure your form is correct and you won't get injured. He provides an individualized approach and gives feedback on almost every movement you do and maintains professional courtesy in every training session. Honestly the best gym i have ever trained at!

This is a gym for everyone! And ladies, don’t be intimidated, you’ll make a lot of amazing gains in your strength, muscle mass (you won’t get big, don’t worry!), and your overall feelings of empowerment, no matter your age! I’m nearly 60 & have seen my body & attitude change so much for the better in the last 7 months that I’ve been attending classes at Layne Performance! It’s the “Layne Effect”! ?Andrew Layne is the nicest & most low-key guy but he’s constantly assessing your form so there are no lifting injuries. He is a wealth of information & offers frequent free classes covering everything from nutrition to specific lifting techniques.Every single person that I’ve met is friendly and nice here. The gym is well kept & clean. The classes are for all ages & we really have a lot of fun together while getting stronger! ??Give the “Layne Effect” a try, you’ll be glad you did!!
