The Core Health & Fitness

Experiencia fantástica: This is a hidden gem this facility is top notch and in a great location. Great for a quick workout at a clean gym offering all types of equipment.

Experiencia positiva: The core was a great facility for my trainers and me for years. Many thanks, Don

Experiencia fantástica: I Love FanClub gym absolutely one of a kind experience if your a gym head like myself

Experiencia fantástica: I’ve been a member for a little over 6 months and have waited to write this review. PROS: large variety of equipment (including barbells), friendly staff, clean facilities, not crowded (no waiting for equipment), hours that fit my schedule. CONS: It’s in a remodel which isn’t ideal but that won’t last forever. Doesn’t affect use of gym, just aesthetics. Also, a tad pricier than a “big box” gym but you get what you pay for, I don’t regret the investment. Ultimately I’ve been a member of a dozen gyms over 16 years and this is my favorite one so far. Everything I need, not crowded, like a home away from home.

Experiencia negativa: THIEVES!!!!! When i tried to join this gym, the owner kept talking about how there's no hidden fee in this gym. I tried their gym literally twice n i DID NOT like it. No staff and no customer service in this gym. Very old interior. I tried to cancel my membership and the girl by the door said you have to do it on your own and i am not helping you! Not only they charged me for another month, but they charged me $50 more for a maintenance fee!

Experiencia fantástica: I unfortunately had to cancel due to a relocation, but this is by far the best gym in Houston for the value. I tried 24hr, Gold's, even Equinox but this one stuck out as the most consistent/enjoyable. The combination of ample equipment and low foot traffic makes this gym an anomaly in Houston, and of all the things in Houston I'll miss, this gym is on the top of the list. You can tell the owner puts his heart and soul into it, and the community reflects that. I highly recommend this gym.

Experiencia negativa: Attempted to check the gym out but was told I would have to set up a tour instead of checking it out. I was offered the opportunity to “pay” to tour the facility by paying for a drop-in pass. Truly a baffling way to get customers. No info on the gym since I didn’t pay to tour.

Experiencia fantástica: This is my new gym because it has a vibe closer to Fit Athletics that just closed in Montrose and it's located near my place. A real gym with real people working out. The crowd is light. There are trainers on site training folks but they are super nice and definitely not aggressive with equipment like trainers in other gyms. Short version: you aren't less just because you are training on your own. Everyone is courteous. There's plenty of workout space, plenty of equipment and variety of equipment. The building is organized into two floors and about 3-4 main training areas. The squat / deadlift room is a class act and these days an essential to have. The spaces are well lit, clean and organized. Members could rerack weights but this is a problem in all gyms right now. There's plenty of parking available. The building is well maintained. The changing rooms, showers are all clean and well maintained. There's no sauna, there is no steam room, there is no pool of any kind and good riddance -- those always bring the worst of the gym goers. There's no daycare, no children's area. Leave your children at home. Now there is a spa side, that's where steam and sauna might be. I don't know. That part is extra on top of the membership. You just have to decide if you need those services. I don't. The price point is higher than other gyms, and yes you get what you pay for. It is however the same pricing as Fit athletics that closed. If you ask what could be improved: The gym could use about 10-20 additional 45lb plates to be distributed in the training rooms they have as there aren't 45lb plates to go around in general. Just for clarification. I train heavy. Perhaps most other people did not notice this. The hours are a little conservative especially on Fridays and weekends. It's a family owned gym, you deal with real people, no corporate, it's mellow and friendly. Free of texting teenagers, children, socialites, fitness influencers, tripods and recording and other Houston annoyances, this gym is a breath of fresh air. It's for courteous, grown up, serious exercise enthusiast.

Experiencia fantástica: Great overall gym!

Experiencia negativa: very expensive ..little to offer ...want u to get a personal trainer..closes early

Experiencia fantástica: A great gym and my personal favorite. This is a trainers gym and is newly designed for optimum performance. My trainer Brandon Cole is top notch and really gets results. He is also a stretch specialist and makes sure you don't hurt yourself while working out! The gym is great and the newly renovated building is very nice with all new equipment.

Experiencia fantástica: Excellent spot with the best staff!! Very clean and always has the best products!

Experiencia fantástica: Excellent spot with the best staff!! Very clean and always has the best products!

Experiencia fantástica: This place is awesome! Friendly people and staff, clean and has lots of equipment. Working out here will spoil you and make it hard to workout anywhere else!

Experiencia fantástica: Excellent gym where no one is watching each other. Just people intent on working out. Very motivating to be in a serious environment whether you are in shape or not. All types present but everyone is all about getting it done.

Experiencia fantástica: After some months of going to The Core Health & Fitness i can say it's one of the better gyms i've been to. It's a very clean space with staff, Personal trainers and even members being friendly. The gym is very clean and has a plethora of machines to workout any specific muscle. I can without a doubt say that i definetly loved my time there. Although i am no longer a member I would most definetly recommend this space to any one looking to join a gym where there is some privacy.

Experiencia positiva: Very clean, organized and great front desk employees. I went to patronize one of the businesses leasing space there, and was pleased at the level of assistance from the young woman at the desk.

Experiencia fantástica: The training was hard, but that’s mainly because it was what I needed. The trainer explained and described how the certain exercise or workout would help me develop certain aspects of what I wanted to work on.

Experiencia fantástica: The Core makes me feel like i’m in a fancy gym! It’s clean and it is never crowded. If you’re looking to find a place to start, The Core is a fantastic place because you don’t feel intimidated. Everyone is just minding their own business.

Experiencia fantástica: Good stuff

Experiencia fantástica: A happy place to enjoy your me-time. Staff is great and the facility is maintained at high standards. I love how much privacy you can have with the all the space available. This place isn’t a gym - it’s a gem!

Experiencia fantástica: The Core is a premier gym that is specialized to meet it’s customer needs with its vast amount equipment, personal training and health and wellness professionals on site. I am an artist and the owner, Lee, currently has my art pieces displayed. Since doing so, I’ve received a lot of positive feedback and sold some of the pieces! Lee has gone over and beyond with featuring my work. I am honored that he chose my art to have on display. He really goes out of his way for others and it’s clear when you see all that is offered for the members of the gym and how professional and service-oriented he and the rest of the staff are!

Experiencia fantástica: We’re super excited to have found this place as it is close to home and has everything we’ve been looking for in a gym: - many squat racks - many machines / free weights - large turf area - multiple bathrooms/showers - 2 fully equipped levels / not overcrowded

Experiencia fantástica: This gym has everything you need. Every room is different and there’s enough room for everybody.

Experiencia fantástica: I was in town for work and wanted more than the hotel gym could offer. I found this gym nearby and it had everything I could ever need, plus more! It was very spacious and all the equipment was clean and well maintained. The staff and owner were very helpful and accommodating. I'll definitely be back when I'm in the area again.

Experiencia fantástica: Cleanest gym hands down, every amenity you can think of. Absolutely the best gym I've ever been to. Met all my health goals faster than ever before. Friendly staff, list goes on about how great this place is.

Experiencia fantástica: By far this gym is hands down amazing! It’s the little things that show how much a company values its clients/customer. As women we are accustomed to carry our own feminine products but The Core goes out the way to keep the supply STOCKED everyday! Most commercial gyms still have the 25cent machines that are broken, outdated and empty. This act would be expected every in 2022 but here it is a Gold standard.It’s the little things! Lee and his staff keep the standard of ensuring why The Core is better! Clean, friendly & accessible!

Experiencia fantástica: Great gym that has everything you need

Experiencia fantástica: Clean, well ventilated, well-maintained equipment, not elbow-to-elbow, so few waits on equipment.

Experiencia fantástica: I enjoyed the place and unfortunately never went back.

Experiencia fantástica: I have belonged to several health clubs in Houston over the years and this is by far the best run facility I have belonged to. Recommended.

Experiencia fantástica: Trainers there are amazing. Been going there for a year now and has changed my life.

Experiencia fantástica: Great gym. Friendly staff, uncrowded, clean and plenty of equipment. Tons of amenities and health related businesses in there too.

Experiencia fantástica: I've been a trainer here since 2014 when it first opened. Best gym in Houston! Big, spacious, top of the line equipment and clean. Definitely recommend 100!

Experiencia fantástica: The gym is always clean & the equipment are great and so are the people that come & work there. They have a lot of wellness providers in the gym itself like planet beach spa, chiropractors, national personal training school so its more it less a fitness mall Talk to Vicktoria & Corina

Experiencia fantástica: Positive: Communication , Professionalism , Quality If I could give Core Health and Fitness more stars I would! Lee and his staff are exemplary in everyway, courteous, friendly and service orientated. The gym is very clean and the equipment is the best. Make sure to stop and see Corina at the Plant Beach Spa! I highly recommend Core for all your health and fitness goals!!!

Experiencia fantástica: The Core is a very nice, clean gym. I have had a studio suite here for almost 2 years now. My clients and I love the location and the professionalism of everyone at the building. The employees are always there when you first come in to greet you. The members are nice as well. I love the location and the ease of coming to this facility. There also is a wide range of services (beauty/wellness) offered at the Core which is always a plus!

Experiencia fantástica: Brian Egwatu is the best trainer on planet earth...

Experiencia fantástica: I’ve been a member over 3 years, by far best place to workout in the Houston area.

Experiencia fantástica: Ah man there’s a spa called Planet Beach and it’s just such a great spa! Def recommend!

The facility is neat, organized and I can most certainly guarantee I will get a good sweat in. Brian has been my trainer and I couldn’t imagine it any other way. I’m so thankful I have come across a great facility with an even more amazing trainer!

Experiencia fantástica: I love The Core! Almost 1 year ago, my client told me about this amazing place. I called, spoke with the owner and scheduled a tour to see the facility. ALL The staff were extremely professional & friendly and I immediately felt that this establishment could provide EVERYTHING I was looking for. The Core is a 5 star facility & also is home to around 30 individual office suites available to lease for small business owners. I began leasing a space at The Core for my business in March 2021 and it has radically changed both my business and fitness life. My clients love the central location & abundance of parking. Every person is the front desk reception team is friendly & helpful. The space is always super clean and sanitized. The variety of gym equipment and size of the facility provide everything that I need for my personal fitness. (Love the private yoga/dance room) Anyways, I could go on and on about all the reasons why I love this place so much. And Please don’t think my review is biased since I am a tenant of The Core. I’m there on almost a daily basis and it really is Houston’s Best “hidden” Gym!

Experiencia positiva: Great facility, lots of equipment, clean, lots of space. Not crowded. Comfortable for social distancing. Friendly and supportive environment.

Experiencia fantástica: Great staff, immaculate machines and weight

Experiencia fantástica: Great spot. Low capacity. Never wait on equipment

Experiencia fantástica: Love geritng Professional Medical, Deep Tissue and Relaxing/hot stone Massage with Claudia room 106...SO good Being working out with my PT Carlos, I already noticed changes since 3 months ago...... Going also to Hotworks then tanning bed, beauty indulgence..

Experiencia fantástica: Really friendly staff. Great selection of equipment. Not overly crowded. Def worth checking out if looking for a gym.

Experiencia fantástica: This place is great! I was referred by a friend who found a trainer named Carlos on Tic Tok. The facility is filled with a friendly staff. If you are looking for a trainer I recommend Carlos.

Experiencia fantástica: Love it, new equipment. Super clean, constantly being sanitized. Never crowded. I got a good trainer, Dallas. I wish they’d offer yoga and spinning classes. Nice costumers, trainers and personnel.

Experiencia fantástica: Incredible gym and absolutely outstanding staff highly recommend

Experiencia fantástica: The Core was great because I go there to see Dave Boetcher my personal trainer...the best there is!

Experiencia fantástica: Great place to work out. Clean and not crowd. They have the room and every piece of equipment you can think of.

Experiencia fantástica: Super super dope spot!

Experiencia fantástica: Nice

Experiencia fantástica: Incredible gym and absolutely outstanding staff highly recommend

Experiencia fantástica: Clean and spacious, family oriented setting.

Experiencia fantástica: The gym looks smaller than it actually is from the outside but is two stories and has plenty of equipment (I use to use 24 Hour Fitness was happy with that in the past but this place is a major upgrade. The gym has been smart and you can be germ free before you work out and has plenty of wipes for machines/equipment. Also you don't have to worry about the gym being too crowded (even after work) and during the weekends it is free play in terms of what you can use. I like the variety of the gym and the facilities and it really is an amazing gym! The only downside is with road construction you have to take back roads to get to it but construction should be completed by September/later this year which will fix that issue.

Experiencia fantástica: The core is a great business idea. Not only that but it's an amazing environment with amazing people.

Experiencia fantástica: Wow. Phenomenal gym with the most diverse set of equipment of any gym I’ve been to in Houston. I’ve found my gym home here. Love the people! Love the location!!!

Experiencia fantástica: I love this gym great staff. I had Trainer Mark he is really good and knowledgeable. He will push you to your goals every step of the way.

Experiencia fantástica: Great workout facility. Lots of space, lots of equipment.

Experiencia fantástica: Amazing facility!!!!! Has almost any and every piece of my equipment you'd ever need! Also the staff is very knowledgable!

Experiencia negativa: This place has terrible customer service. I cancelled my membership because I had a personal trainer become visibly and verbally aggressive with me. Then, when I say down with the owner to discuss the issue, the owner dismissed the complaint as if I was a boy on a schoolyard complaining to a teacher. In the meeting he proceeded to ask me what I did for a living. What significance does my employment have? Was he judging me by what his perception of my employment was? I guess if you're a doctor paying for hundreds of dollars worth of personal training every month then you've got nothing to worry about. The cameras all over the place and warning signs about parking and valuables wasn't all that encouraging anyways. To the people that have read this far, find a gym where they treat everyone with equal respect.

Experiencia fantástica: The people at the Core are very knowledgeable and friendly.

Experiencia negativa: Looks like a nice place to go the the gym however I used my friends phone to call and ask if you guys are hiring and few days later my buddy gets a callback and hangs up which is expected if you don’t recognize a number however when I find out all I know is he gets a immature response for hanging up guess that’s a little foolish and immature

Experiencia positiva: Great gym, staff and amenities. Clean and spacious. Would be 5 stars if they had slightly better weekend hours.

Experiencia positiva: Expensive but great machines

Experiencia positiva: Gym is decent, lots of staff, weights put away, machines are clean and working

Experiencia positiva: The gym has plenty of equipment that looks in tip top shape. You won't have trouble finding parking. Environment and workers are friendly. The only downside is the lack of organization. Equipment is spread through several different rooms, including an upstairs room which will may lead to more steps than you expected.

Experiencia fantástica: Great, clean Gym with awesome equipment, and friendly staff.

Experiencia fantástica: When only the best will do. Every trainer on staff is top quality.

Experiencia fantástica: Awesome gym. Very clean. Great equipment, some that you don't see at most other gyms. People are nice. Great atmosphere.

Experiencia fantástica: Do you like "getting swole"? Do you enjoy picking up heavy things and placing them back down? Do you like wear cool gym clothes in an urban gym environment? THEN IS THE CORE HOUSTON THE PLACE FOR YOU! The core is that ️ANKEST place to get your ️WOLE on! I've been coming here for years and I've been eating it up! Highly suggest, 10/10, Arnold approved establishment with great friendly staff.

Experiencia fantástica: Month-to-month pricing with no sign-up fees great place with reasonably priced personal trainers small no water features
