Austin Fitness Clinic

Fantastic experience: I have been a loyal client at Austin Fitness Clinic for well over a decade. The owner, Sam Ditzell, has been my fitness guru throughout this journey, and his expertise and dedication to promoting longevity and a healthy lifestyle have truly transformed my life. Not only have I seen visible improvements in my fitness and health, but I have also gained valuable knowledge and insights that have helped me make sustainable lifestyle and dietary changes. While the personalized approach and professionalism at Austin Fitness Clinic set it apart from any other gym experience I’ve ever had, the friendship and sense of family there are what I enjoy the most. I highly recommend Austin Fitness Clinic to anyone looking to prioritize their health and well-being in a supportive and encouraging environment. Thank you, Sam, for your guidance and commitment to helping me achieve my lifelong goals.

Fantastic experience: I’ve worked with Sam for over 15 years and now, at 57 years old, I find my body more fit and healthy than at any point in my life! That is a testament to Sam’s deep knowledge of what it means to “healthy” and his commitment to the wellbeing of his clients.

Fantastic experience: I got a high grade partial tear in my acl playing basketball and worked with Sam for over 3 months to get my strength and stability back. He is very knowledgeable, and he explains why and how each move in the program improves exactly what. I highly recommend him.

Fantastic experience: The gym and the staff are all first rate. It is a very welcoming environment. it feels like family. On top of that, the training from a fitness and a rehab standpoint couldn’t be better. For example, while training for a marathon the owner trained and ran with us. Talk about personal service! Highly recommend Austin Fitness Clinic.

Fantastic experience: Blane Smith has been my personal trainer for a little over a year, first at the Townlake YMCA and now at the Austin Fitness Clinic. In my experience, it’s the trainer and not the equipment that makes all the difference in helping you get into shape. And Blane is excellent at it! Before every session, he asks what parts of your body you would like to stretch or exercise that day. He gives clear guidance on what moves to make, and how, and monitors your workout carefully, so that you reap the maximum benefit from it and without hurting yourself. Best of all in my opinion, Blane continually introduces you to new exercises and routines, So there’s no growing bored. Plus, your sessions evolve in step with your physical progress. As you see, I’m big on Blane; seek him out!

Fantastic experience: For more years than I can remember, Sam's informed training sessions and personal health guidance have kept me fit and strong. His training methodologies are innovative and forward-thinking, often going against conventional "fitness" wisdoms of the past. AFC's focus on wellness and whole body health have been both beneficial and vital to my life and lifestyle. Thank you, Sam!

Fantastic experience: Can't say enough good things about this place. If you are looking for a personalized approach to health and fitness, I highly recommend you reach out to Sam and Marci.

Fantastic experience: Everything and everyone at this gym is incredible. It has everything you need to get to the best version of yourself. The owners Sam and Marci are two of the sweetest and most knowledgeable people you'll ever meet. My husband and I train with Meghan S, and to say that this woman has changed our life is an understatement. We both deal with imbalances, pain, and weakness due to old injuries. With Meghan's guidance we're able to do things that we never expected to be able to do again and we've both put on so much muscle! If you're not convinced yet, do yourself a favor and book an appointment to talk to someone there in person. You'll be happy you did.

Fantastic experience: What brought me to Austin Fitness Clinic? It all started with my Doctor giving me “homework” after my bone density test was not where it should be. She said I want you to do 1 pull up by your next annual visit. Austin Fitness was in my neighborhood so I thought I would give it a try. I talked to the owner, Sam, and he matched me with a trainer, Yvette. It was the perfect fit. Yvette has such a positive and calming presence about her. If I come in with a specific pain, she works on that area till I’m better and can move on. It’s a collaboration, and we’re always working on achieving goals. I can’t say enough about how awesome she is. The owners, Sam and Marci, make the gym feel like a community. All the trainers are friendly and knowledgeable, and I suppose the ultimate compliment is I look forward to coming to Austin Fitness Clinic each and every time. I’m excited for the day I achieve the 1 pull up…or more!

Fantastic experience: AFC is a great place to rehab, prehab, train and/or maintain! I was introduced to AFC after a couple of knee surgeries and a back surgery. I needed to learn how to correctly train to keep my body in good functional shape as I was coming off of a few injuries, and to ensure I could remain in the best shape possible as I aged. I was introduced to the concept of functional training and saw immediate and significant results in my body, strength, stability, and stamina. Consequently, I’ve trained at AFC for the past 13+ years, and intend to continue as long as possible! The environment is perfect for 1:1 specialized training to help you recover from injury or pain, to prepare for upcoming surgery to ensure the best possible outcome and outlook for recovery, and to simply get and stay in the best shape possible. As a trainer/client-only gym, there is never a huge crowd or any unexpected activity or distraction. There is a great culture of camaraderie and respect amongst the trainers and the clientele. The location is convenient with very easy access and plenty of parking. The facilities are clean and modern and provide the ability to accomplish any level of training objective. And the comprehensive offerings when you factor in the available Pilates, Acupuncture, & Massage Therapy make for an ideal one-stop shop for comprehensive body work.

Fantastic experience: Austin Fitness Clinic trainers and therapists got me to a level of wellness after cancer surgery that I did not think possible. They are the experts!

Fantastic experience: Meghan is an awesome trainer and is really helping me to rebuild strength and stability after years of back/spinal issues that had prevented regular workouts. The location is great too!

Fantastic experience: Moose is my favorite

Fantastic experience: Excellent personal training. Highly recommended if you are recovering from injury or you have physical issues. Well worth it.

Fantastic experience: Austin Fitness is the place to go for a personalized approach to working out. You can't just show up, you have one trainer who you contract with who knows you and has your best health at heart. I worked out with Sam for 10 years as I was recovering from back surgery and for the last 2 years I've worked out with Yvette - greatly enjoying the change up while still getting an excellent trainer who is watching out for my well being. It's also nice to have the convenience of other wellness support services right there in the building.

Fantastic experience: Helpful trainers and lots it equipment
