Heavy Mettle Fitness has transformed my life. I met Matt the owner in summer 2023 when I hit my lowest point physically, badly overweight and not able to easily do basic physical fitness activities, such as walking with pace and distance which was a challenge. He and the staff have been guides and mentors. As personal trainers Matt and team take the “personal” part of it as a shared journey, encouraging, listening, guiding. I have lost 20 lbs, and gone from a 38 to 34 waist. If you want to find true professionals who care and lead with positivity there is no better place for personal training than Heavy Mettle Fitness!

Love this place. Highly knowledgeable team. Matt is invested and a fantastic personal trainer in Austin. He runs a great operation that’s way better than the online options I’ve tried in the past. I’m getting better results with shorter, more efficient workouts. Would definitely recommend whether you’re getting into fitness or have a lot of experience and want to fine-tune things.

Fantastic place! They know when to help me push but also listen to my concerns. I've gone from nearly passing out in my warmup to being quite athletic. I love having this much energy and strength, I now look forward to every session.

I'm 52. After four months of two one-hour sessions per week, my strength and endurance feel restored. Lower back pain gone. My trainer, Kevin, is very supportive and focused.

I am really enjoying my personal training at Heavy Mettle Fitness! Matt was very informative and super nice throughout the onboarding process and my personal training with Drake has been really great! I feel a lot stronger and I know I'm benefitting greatly from the workouts. I could not ask for a better personal trainer setup. Thank you Matt and Drake for a wonderful experience at your gym!

Matt and his team at Heavy Mettle Fitness are THE PRO'S!!! Matt & Adrien are incredibly skilled and professional trainers. I came to HMF with the goal of losing weight and while it hasn't been easy, the work is paying-off. Matt's guidance around nutrition has made making choices around food easily manageable. And Adrien is The BEST Trainer Ever!!! The exercise modifications he provides have allowed me to build my confidence and abilities where I didn't have them before. I'm so thankful to have found this place. I feel like I have a 'new lease' and the motivation to keep pushing forward because I am finally seeing results. Sometimes you need help in life and you need to surround yourself with people you can trust to help you. This is that place and these are theose people. Thank you, Matt & Adrien!! You make a difference!!!! ?????

I’ve been with Miriam at Heavy Mettle for a couple months now and have loved the training experience! As a woman who has had no experience with lifting ( or gym equipment in general), Miriam has been very patient but also educational and helped me push for improvement. I’ve seen definite toning in my body and look forward to continue :)The rest of the team is also super nice and the gym environment is very comfortable.

I’ve been going to Heavy Mettle Fitness since August and have seem results that I’d been struggling to achieve on my own over the last several years. Through both a nutrition and training plan I’ve found a balance and routine that works for me.I love that the gym isn’t ever overly crowded and that the sessions are tailored to my abilities and goals.I’m very happy I took the leap and joined. Adrien and Matt have been super and have made this experience fun rather than intimidating. I plan to stick around for awhile!

In my 3rd month at Heavy Mettle and can’t say enough about it. Miriam has been a fantastic trainer for me and Matt has been in touch regularly about my nutrition goals.The facilities have everything someone could need and the results I’ve seen so far have been super motivating. I’m looking forward to the results to come.If you’re looking to start a program or take yourself to the next level, Heavy Mettle is the place to do it. This experience has been exactly what I was looking for when transitioning from a public gym to a personal training gym.

Heavy Mettle is a great gym. The owner Matt Ryan was super helpful in identifying my individual needs and matching me with Adrien Maggione as my personal trainer. Adrien has been a great coach helping me improve strength and flexibility while also avoiding injury. Thanks to the team at Heavy Mettle! Awesome crew and great personal trainers!

I have been training here for a few months and I have really enjoyed my progress and experience. Matt and Kevin have helped to guide me towards my fitness goals in a way that trainers at commercial gyms failed to do. They are incredibly professional and experienced in personal training. I also appreciate the payment structure without a membership. In general, I can tell that they care about me and the progress that I am making towards my goals. Overall, training with them has been excellent and I look forward to continuing. I highly recommend Heavy Mettle Fitness if you are looking for a personal trainer in Austin.

I've been receiving personal training sessions at Heavy Mettle Fitness, and I must say that Matt and his team are truly remarkable. Matt attentively listened to my fitness goals and concerns, and with that information, he paired me with the trainer, Kevin. The training sessions led by Kevin are challenging and focused on ensuring correct form while steadily progressing toward my goals. The entire staff is not only welcoming but also very professional. The workouts are readily adjusted to accommodate any injuries. Each training session led by Kevin is an enjoyable experience. I'm noticing progress in a relatively short span and would definitely recommend Heavy Mettle Fitness to anyone seeking outstanding fitness guidance.

Really appreciate the professionalism, patience, and flexibility. I signed up in order to establish healthier habits, learn proper form and a different type of exercise than I have done in the past, and work back up to a baseline level of fitness. I'm positive I picked the right place.Have worked with two trainers, plus the initial meeting with Matthew to discuss goals and form a plan. They definitely educate and collaborate *with* you rather than dictating to you, which has been great.Starting from couch potato office worker I know it will be a slog, but after just over a month, I have already noticed that I can do a lot more and I have more energy.The facility itself is small but VERY thoughtfully equipped, and they do a great job of traffic control so that anyone training at the same time as someone else stays fully focused on their own workout. Overall I think the size of the place is a "plus."

This team definitely makes PT personal. I was skeptical signing up for personal training as I've been working out alone for over 10 years. I wasnt sure id be learning anything new. I have also noticed many personal trainers around town who are not in shape (you know what they say "never trust a skinny chef"). These guys are not like that at all. They practice what they preach and they know what they are talking about. They used a science based approach which is perfect for an analytical mind like mine. I'm already feeling better about my fitness journey and am excited to keep going. I'd also mention that the bang for your buck is definitely there. You can spend a lot more for PT but I don't think the quality goes up from Heavy Mettle. Thanks guys!
