The Lab Fort Worth

Fantastic experience: I’ve worked out at many different facilities and this one for some reason has been my favorite. Unlike other gyms that overwhelm you with so much, this one has all the equipment that a serious athlete needs yet a comfortable gym.

Fantastic experience: Great gym! Super clean, all the weights you need, great people!

Fantastic experience: 5 Star Gym! Clean equipment, great people, great trainers. Come here to become a better version of yourself. The coaches here have good advice to help you meet your goals.

Fantastic experience: If I could give this place 10 stars, I would. I was in town for a month and in need of a gym, and I am SO grateful I stumbled upon this hidden gem! Kris and Brian (gym owners) are so incredibly kind and welcoming, and cater to all kinds of athletes and individuals. Brian is extremely knowledgeable as a trainer and coach - I was fortunate I even had a few hours of personal training with him in his busy schedule of working with other professional athletes. HIGHLY recommend for anyone in the area!!!

Fantastic experience: I come to The Lab when I visit my family in DFW. I've worked out with both Bryan and Kristin and each workout has been amazing! I've done 1:1, as well as HIIT style classes. I love that when I sign up for a 1:1, I walk in, I'm greeted and asked what my goals are for the class. Then, I get a tailored workout based on what I need. For example, last class I said I wanted to focus on chest, back and arms. While conversing during the workout I mentioned I wanted to work on my lower chest, so Bryan adjusted the workout to give me what I wanted and provided me with exercises I could do outside of the gym. He's super knowledgeable about diet, protein intake and the science behind why their workouts are so effective. I think the most spectacular thing about this place is its philanthropic mindset. Giving back to the community and schools plays a pivotal role in defining who The Lab is and that's something I feel like we need more of in this world ☺. Keep it up Bryan and Kristin! (I'll see ya when I get back to DFW)

Fantastic experience: This place is amazing! I wandered into The Lab two years ago looking for a small, friendly neighborhood gym and have loved working out here ever since. Brian and Kristen are fabulous! They are always ready to answer your questions about an exercise or to check your form for you. Kristen also offers an affordable meal service of freshly prepared, delicious, and healthy food. Brian works hard to provide an inclusive and welcoming vibe to the gym, plus his community service projects are top notch! Did I mention Kettlebell?? He's only the sweetest lab pupperino ever! HIIT classes are small and you never feel lost in a crowd (which, if we're being honest, also means Kristen won't let you slack off LoL). I also use the weights and even at 5 pm during the week, there's plenty of equipment available. If you're looking for a family oriented, chill gym to workout, definitely check out The Lab!

Fantastic experience: I am so happy I found this gym. It is family-run with truly elite trainers, from the gentle but consistent accountability to the ease of communication and wealth of fitness knowledge. I have tried different boutique gyms for years and this is the first gym I've been at consistently for a whole year! Without variation, Brian and Kris provide a comfortable growing environment and exceptionally dynamic workouts, resulting in a special brand of confidence in my fitness goals and overall journey. I always step into the gym knowing I will emerge closer to my goals because of their passion for the GROWTH of their clients. I have to mention that the owners consistently pour into the community in all kinds of tangible ways, and it truly is amazing to see and be apart of. In sum, the workouts are great, the equipment is top tier, and the trainers are wonderful. You will become a better athlete AND person by involving yourself here. Don't hesitate to try them out.

Fantastic experience: Love this gym! They offer an amazing workout, high intensity, great quality exercise! I love the 4 station format and Kristen is helpful throughout the workout explaining the workouts, encouraging me and counting down the time. I love coming to the performance lab- it’s a hard workout but I’m always glad I’ve come!

Fantastic experience: It's fun being a physician and getting to see (in real time) how helpful fitness coaching can be. The Lab is owned by Coach Brian and Coach Kris and they do a phenomenal job of being supportive while holding you accountable to your personal goals. "You can't improve what you don't track" and whether you doing strength training or HIIT, both Coaches tailor the workout to your specific need without letting you slack. I've been working out there now for about 3 years; I bought the MyZone belt to hold me accountable and I've lost weight, have better numbers (lowered my bad cholesterol) and improved my mood. As a small gym, it's clean and members are incredibly supportive of one another regardless of body type, job, personality, or skill level. I get nervous giving them a review because I want to keep my option open for workout times :D Well worth the cost!

Fantastic experience: Brian and Kris are so knowledgeable and welcoming! I have been coming here for several years and have improved a ton in the gym. It’s a great place to get personal instruction in their HITT classes or personal training. I highly recommend.

Fantastic experience: I started working out at the lab about a year ago and have been making very positive strides. Brian will write you a workout that works towards whatever goal you have in mind. Along with that Kris does a great job during the classes always counting down and cheering you on. Brian made me a personal lifting sheet that in just 2 weeks I already was making strides and getting a lot stronger. The Lab is the perfect workout environment and if you are looking for a place to workout this is the place to go!

Fantastic experience: This is the best gym I’ve ever been a part of. The workouts are challenging and show results Brian will make you a customized program depending on your goals and hold you accountable. Kris runs the upbeat HIIT class if you prefer a group class. There is something for anyone. The other vital piece on why I stand by this gym being “the Best” is the community. The community is inclusive and roots for each other. There are people of all levels— from beginners to olympians (yes olympians). Everyone treats each other with respect and humility and comes to work If you are gym shopping I highly recommend!!

Fantastic experience: Brain is the best trainer I've had. I'm an introvert, perfect training environment. Also results were apparent after two weeks of training 4 days a week

Fantastic experience: Awesome mom and pop gym. Really enthusiastic and knowledgeable about fitness and its contagious. They're classes I think are great especially if you feel you need that little nudge to get you going.

Fantastic experience: One of the most supportive gym environments one can find in Fort Worth. Facility is always incredibly clean and the coaching staff are absolutely amazing! I really enjoy the HITT style classes offered as well as individualized strength programs to help me meet my personal goals. This gym is frequented by several high level athletes including Olympians! 10/10 #cometrainwithus #labrats

Fantastic experience: I can’t say enough good things about The Lab. Brian and Kris were so welcoming and knowledgeable. They focus on your goals and how to get you there in a healthy way. I started my training here being able to squat 195 pounds, a few months later I’m squatting 260. I’ve seen real results tailored to my lifestyle and my goals. They have all the equipment you could ever need and it’s all in pristine condition. Best of all, they have the cutest puppy that comes in to say hi. As someone new to TX, this gym has become my home away from home. Great people, great programs, great equipment, great energy. Brian and Kris also do a ton to help our their local community. They’ve hosted water donation drives and recently adopted a street for clean up. The lab is the best!

Fantastic experience: This place is great! The owners are so welcoming. I’ve done their 30 minute circuit-style classes, which are always challenging and a fun mix of exercises. They also offer personal training and open gym, and they have all the (nice, new) equipment you could ever want, with TVs to keep you entertained. As someone who travels and tries different gyms/classes a lot, it can be hard to find a gym like this that clearly has built a solid community and focuses on strength training, that is also perfect for people like me to drop in for a class here and there, but they have nailed it! Give them a try, you won’t regret it.

Fantastic experience: Great gym to workout at. Friendly staff and would recommend the training, will definitely get your your sweat on!!

Fantastic experience: The Performance Lab Fort Worth provides a great atmosphere to get your workout in. Brian and Kris are wonderful people and consummate professionals in how they interact with their clients and provide the necessary attention to detail.

Fantastic experience: Hidden gem in Fort Worth. If you are serious about training this gym should be on your radar and at the top of your list in this area. Extremely well equipped: squat racks and lifting platforms, plenty of kettlebells, barbells and plates and dumbbells of course. The gym is focused on functional training, no nonsense equipment around. Every corner and peace of equipment is well maintained (looks brand new actually) and spotlessly clean. Kristin and Brian are welcoming polite and knowledgeable, they know what it is all about when it comes to working out and performance. Waste no time looking around, this is the right spot!

Fantastic experience: Update: Still loving the Lab! Only gym I've stayed consistent with and even got 2 friends to join too. I reached and surpassed my goals for the year (about 6 months ago). I lost all the extra weight and gained it back as muscle. I went up 100 lbs on back squat, 30 lbs on deadlift, and 55 lbs on bench press. AND, I met my lifelong goal of doing an unassisted chin up Brian and Kristin are the best to ever do it, hands down. I cannot recommend The Lab, Brian, and Kristin enough!!! They are so committed to the success of their clients that it's basically unlimited personal training for a fraction of the cost of other gyms. I started in January (122 lbs) with the goal of looking more fit/losing body fat before a trip to Mexico this summer. After just 2 months, I'm already halfway to my weight loss goal (now 116 lbs and down 2.5% body fat) and more importantly, I (and everyone else) can see a drastic difference. Workouts and nutrition are tailored to you, your goals, and the amount of time you can commit. If you are not meeting your goals in the timeframe that you want, Brian will work with you to change your workouts so that you're not wasting time doing something that isn't working. All that said, the absolute best part about The Lab is Brian and Kristin. They will hold you accountable for your goals and challenge you to set new goals. They will welcome you every morning with positive attitudes. And they won't let you fail! I can't wait to update this post with a before/after picture when I surpass my goal this summer. Please try this gym right away if you're serious about changing your fitness.

Fantastic experience: This family-owned gym is the best! The workouts are straightforward yet challenging. Brian was extremely supportive of my goal to become active again and Kristin consistently gave great encouragement while correcting my form. Together they made my visit to Fort Worth a healthier one and I'm extremely grateful to have worked with them, even for a short amount of time. In sum, Kristin and Brian put their clients first and I would recommend anyone living and/or visiting the area to check them out!

Fantastic experience: I joined the 'Fit Class' this morning. It was an efficient 30min workout instructed by Coach Kris, who provided an ideal amount of guidance and encouragement. I appreciated the clean and well-equipped space, and the Near Southside location was easy to access with plenty of parking.

Fantastic experience: The best Gym ever!! I really great environment for anyone. The coach's are super supportive and push you just the right amount.

Fantastic experience: Clean gym. Great coaches with varying workout programs for however many times you want to commit to each week. A few months in and this is the first time since high school I’m actually motivated and look forward to my workouts.

Fantastic experience: I love training here! Such a great, supportive environment from all the staff and my training with Mikaela is exactly what I needed to get moving toward my goals. In just over a month, I'm already seeing inches lost, I'm gaining strength every week, and just feel better! Mikaela is dedicated to creating workouts that are just right for me and my goals and is extremely encouraging in every session. I'm so thankful for this opportunity to be at such an awesome gym and highly recommend Mikaela and The Performance Lab to anyone ready to improve their fitness. You will love it! It's the best training experience I've ever had!

Fantastic experience: Positive: Communication , Professionalism , Quality Coach Brian, Kristin and Mikaela are the meat to the "SAUCE!" Pushing us to be our very best selves and motivation all in one!! Come Join us!!

Fantastic experience: The lab is AMAZING! The HIIT workout is efficient and will leave you feeling a solid BURN. The functional movements will test you in all aspects- power, strength, endurance, etc. Brian is also just a great dude. Great energy and coaching. You can’t go wrong with the lab!!!

Fantastic experience: It took a full year for my friends to pull me in. Finally I went...... Why did I wait so long?!!! Brian has helped formalize a plan to help me achieve my fitness goals and help me shape my body. I’m motivated when I show in a positive atmosphere. The environment is supportive and the other members have become people I look forward to seeing! Coach K does meal prep and all I can say is abs are made in the kitchen! They are affordable, good, and it helps to have healthy meals available! Also it’s CLEAN! I went to LA Fitness for years and was grossed out by the conditions of the equipment and facilities. It’s always appreciated when I see Coach B cleaning! Thankful for these coaches and I’m so happy with the results in my body and mental health :)

Fantastic experience: Love this place. I am still new, but I already feel like I got in and have been here for a when. They also have a ton of offerings from classes, training plans, and even offer mean prep at really good prices. Very happy I was introduced to The Lab.

Fantastic experience: I want to personally thank my Trainer and his Colleagues for providing the most professional and user friendly gym in Ft Worth. I have gotten a lot more confidence and proficient in my form and the proof are in my stats. Whenever I began back in January I was barely able to do 5 push ups and chin ups were out of the question. I am to say that I have increased weight in all categories and cannot wait to see what 90 days brings and then the Year!!! Brian, Kris and Mikayla make The Performance Lab feel like home and you can’t ask for more knowledgeable passionate group of people.... #ComeTrainWithUs Bench 105 ~ 130 Deadlift 225 ~265 Squat 205 ~230

Fantastic experience: The Lab is the best place to be! I have been to many gyms in the Fort Worth area, I fell in love with this place instantly. Kristin is amazing with the HIT training sessions, she never lets you give up! If you need healthy food, Kristens meals are so good for meal prep. I explained to Coach B what my fitness goals were and he customized an strength training plans just for me. I have been with the lab for almost a year now. I have lost over 20lbs and stronger then ever! The lab is family oriented and has positive energy! #COMETRAINWITHIS, Coach B has best 90 day challenge. I am currently in my 2 months and loving every bit of challenge.

Fantastic experience: Great gym, I always feel like I am working out with family. The gym and the classes are not intimidating like some of those big gyms where you can get lost and you are just a number. Everyone is so friendly and the owners and trainers care about you and your workout goals and can create a specialized workout just for you. Not only is the gym accessible 24/7 but it's cleaned on a regular basis, each client wipes down the machines and/or weights after use, and the staff regularly cleans and sanitizes the whole gym as well.

Fantastic experience: I was looking for a gym close to my apartment and came across this gym online and decided to check it out. I’ve been going almost 5 days a week since I joined and have loved my experience. I decided that not only did I want to lose weight but I wanted to get stronger and transform my body, so i signed up for their training program; which I think one of the best deals you can get for one on one training. Ive been training with Felicia and she has made the experience so easy and so much fun that it feels like working out with a friend. I was very intimidated by the gym but she has helped me feel more confident and she always keeps me motivated. I’m already almost one pant size down, i’m stronger, more toned and I feel great. Its a small gym so it has a family feel to it. All the trainers are great, super friendly and so helpful. Can’t recommend this place enough if you want to start your health journey.

Fantastic experience: Great place to get in a HIIT workout and they do much more! Brian and his team do a great job

Fantastic experience: Im a parent of an athlete. I bring him 5 days a week. This is the place to bring your child if you want to improve performance, speed, and agility. Brian takes the time to train and explain things so that the kids understand why they are doing certain things and how it helps their body. I have seen so much improvement witb my son in just a matter of months. His one on one training cant be matched. You will not be disappointed.

Fantastic experience: My home away from home! Several of my roller derby teammates and I train here! The staff, workout plans and specialized coaching is top notch! Proud to be a Dallas Derby LabRat!

Fantastic experience: Positive: Communication , Professionalism , Quality Love this place! Coaches Bryan and Kristen really work to customize workouts to fit your personal fitness goals. All that they ask for is hard work and dedication! I love that it’s kid friendly and overall family like atmosphere! I highly recommend this studio to anyone trying to get fit an have a one-on-one coaching experience!

Fantastic experience: This gym offers more than just your average workout routine. The workouts change daily and the one-on-one training that is provided is unlike any other studio! I've tried multiple different workout routines and studios over the years, and I can honestly say that these workouts have given me quicker results than any other place. I also love that I can go in at any time that best fits my work schedule. Not only are the workouts great, but the encouraging staff and members motivate you to want to get in the gym daily! 10/10 recommend this gym for all fitness levels!

Fantastic experience: The Performance Lab is a FANTASTIC place to get in new and exciting workouts for any fitness level! The facility is always clean, workouts are updated daily, and there are experienced coaches there to help and motivate you. I have worked at (and worked out at!) several gyms in the past - this is by far the most unique experience I have come across. The coaches have great relationships with their clients and go above and beyond to make anyone that walks through the door feel welcome! Great job, Performance Lab... 2 thumbs way, way up!!

Fantastic experience: The Lab is amazing and one of the best workout environments I've been apart of! Mikaela is fantastic and works hard to provide workout programs that fit your personal fitness goals. She is very encouraging and always challenges you to increase weight. Within 2 months she has already made me stronger and more toned that I couldn't have done on my own. No matter what your fitness goals are, she does what it takes for you to achieve them. 10/10 recommend!

Fantastic experience: As a very busy Physician Assistant, I highly recommend this phenomenal gym!! The amazing trainers provide a 30 minute HIIT workout that regularly pushes me as well as an additional strength training exercise if you desire to go the extra mile. Over the course of 4 short months, I have grown stronger and more fit than I have in years, and I have gained an amazing family that I would not trade for the world! 10/10 recommend!

Fantastic experience: Such a great gym! The owners/trainers are super helpful and their workouts are TOUGH. They offer a HIIT class every half hour and after you are done with that, you can stay and do one of their designed weight workouts. I love having the trainers there if I have questions but the weight training is all self directed. It’s also super clean (which I have def been to many facilities that are not so I really appreciate this!) Definitely if you are FTW based, you should check it out!

Fantastic experience: The trainers are really great and make you want to come everyday. They have built an atmosphere the supports people at every level of the work out journey - beginner to advanced. Whole heartedly recommend this place to everyone.

Fantastic experience: I selfishly do not want to leave a review because this place is INCREDIBLE and I want it all to myself. But seriously, Im on the other side of 30 and wanted to get in shape. I've been to all the Big Box Gyms and have worked out on my own (post athletic career) for many years now. I stopped seeing results and knew I needed someone to "kick my behind" (g-rated) in order to get where I wanted to be. I tried cross-fit, one class, and knew it wasn't for me. Plus I didn't want to be counted among the slew of walking wounded that regularly participate in cross-fit activities. I was looking for something different. Something that provided functional movement, high reps, and high intensity. A much doughier version of myself called The Performance Lab 10 weeks ago and I haven't regretted it one iota. Over the past 10 weeks I've noticed a distinct difference in my physique. The wife is noticing as well...which is plus plus. The workouts are 30 minutes long, but intense and tough. Be ready. They're no joke, but that's ok. They're well worth it. All of the movements are functional and familiar. I now work out 1.5 hrs a day 5 days a week and have never felt a muscle pull or any tenderness. I can honestly say I am hooked to this gym and these workouts. All the gym goers are friendly. There is a solid level of community here that is hard to replicate. Last but not least, the owners Brian and Kristin (sp? e) are extremely attentive to you. They are alway around to coach and encourage you to be your best self. This is by far the best gym experience I've ever had and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a better fitness experience.

Fantastic experience: High quality everything. The 30-minute format is what has me coming back. Brian and Kristin are probably the most encouraging trainers I've worked with and they have me doing things I would have never thought I had the actual strength to perform.

Fantastic experience: Honestly, I have been hopping around to different gyms for a while now and inconsistent with my workouts...Until I found The Performance Lab in Fort Worth! From the moment I walked in, I felt like a regular. Brian and Kristin are fabulous trainers...Always encouraging, making sure I’m using correct form, and pushing me to give my all! I love it! Go in and give it a try and I promise you will not want to go to another gym! #Awesome #ThePerformanceLabFW

Fantastic experience: love this place. awesome equipment and the trainers Brian and Kristin are awesome. they always push you, encourage you, and also get along side you to finish and complete a workout. They will for sure challenge you and get a great work out having you ask for more. There is never a dull moment, new exercises, daily challenges, and a differnet experience every time. I highly suggest everyone to check them out!!!

Fantastic experience: This place is LEGIT. If you’re having problems with staying consistent, coming up with workouts or just gaining muscle, the trainers here have your backs. For what you get with your membership it’s well worth the investment. Check em’ out

Fantastic experience: The Performance lab has a great family/friendly environment. whether you have never worked out before or just trying to get back in shape this placed hands down is amazing. If you have any fitness goals they will make sure you achieve them. My PAT time for firefighter physical have improve from working out with these great people
