Great workout! As an out of town guest, I wasn’t sure what to expect. Ivan made me feel welcome right away, and others in the class were friendly as well. The workout was challenging and well paced for all participants. I highly recommend The Cav and would be a regular if I lived in the greater Louisville area. I don’t often rate businesses, but I felt giving this one a strong recommendation might be helpful for those who are interested but not sure about giving it a try. I loved it and think others will too.

The CAV is by far the best gym I’ve experienced in Louisville. I love the small group atmosphere where the trainers are not only friendly and fun but genuinely invested in your progress. They take the time to break down each movement, explain proper form, and ensure you’re performing exercises safely and effectively. The workouts are challenging in the best way possible, and the encouragement from both the trainers and fellow members creates such a positive, motivating environment. After just one class, I knew this was the place that will help me reach and exceed my fitness goals. I look forward to many more classes at The CAV!

As a senior citizen and beginner at The Cav I have been so impressed with how friendly the coaches are as well as the participants in the classes. I've had Coach Ivan's class several times and met other coaches. The techniques are explained for correct form and technique. Modifications are explained and Coach Ivan always makes sure I'm using correct form.

I highly recommend The Cav if you want to work on strength training in a supportive environment.

I had an awesome experience with The CAV during my two-week free training 😁! All the trainers were fantastic, especially Annie. The owner is super nice and has created a very welcoming and fun atmosphere. The workouts were always challenging but also enjoyable, which made me look forward to each session. I left feeling way more confident about lifting heavier 💪, and the motivation from both the trainers and the other people working out there was incredible. I highly recommend checking this place out if you're looking for a supportive, effective, and fun workout program!

Finished my second class and am enjoying it! I was very nervous to join a gym, especially in a group setting. I had been doing workouts at home for years (and majorly slacking off from those) so was worried I wouldn’t be able to keep up. I have been able to do each workout at my level without feeling awkward or weak. Everyone is encouraging but also focusing on their own workout so I don’t feel singled out. It’s nice to see everyone at different levels but still getting the same attention and encouragement from the coaches.

The CAV Middletown is an exceptional gym and good for all levels from beginner to expert.It’s always clean, and the atmosphere is welcoming, with friendly coaches and members. The coaches give personal attention, ensuring everyone has proper form, almost like personal training in every class. The classes mix cardio and weights, and the music makes them even more fun. Plus, owner Ivan is always available to answer any questions or provide support. If you're looking for a great gym with fantastic workouts and a supportive community, The CAV is the place to be!

Did my first class today thinking I’d just try it out. I didn’t think I’d be signing up for more, but here I am. They made you feel welcome and you hit a lot of muscle groups with well thought out circuits for the class. The tight schedule and keeping things moving was nice for people that have a tough time staying focused.

The program seems to give you a nice balance of strength and cardio throughout each week. The wide variety of bundles gives you total flexibility on membership. Lastly, The staff seem very intentional in keeping you in the loop and engaged. Ivan was patient and stayed in touch for weeks until I finally was able to come.

The CAV is the place for you! Seriously. I HATE gyms. I did at-home workouts for 3 yrs. I needed a change! I drug my feet for 6 months before I finally made the switch. If you need a new workout routine check this place out! Very welcoming environment. You will be challenged but never shamed while you workout. You can go at the pace you need to go. Whether you’re a beginner or advanced The CAV is worth every penny. The instructors are awesome and kind! They really help you understand the importance of good form and correct posture while you lift so you don’t destroy your body! I’ve done 25 workouts there and no workout has been the same. We target different muscle groups each day. It keeps my body from getting set in its ways. I got so tired of having to prepare my workouts from the same old videos. I didn’t have the head space for that anymore. At The CAV they do the prepare work for you so just show up and be ready to grind for 50ish mins! Hope to see you there!

I chose to join a gym because I had lost 100 lbs in the last year and half while while working on my health. I am 64 and needed to do some toning and muscle building. I joined 2 days before I started so I was still on the fence if this would be right for me. Two days later, after my first visit, I am hooked.

Ben is an attentive coach who thoroughly explains and demonstrates each exercise in the workout. He ensures proper form for maximum performance without injury. CAV workouts are always challenging and sure to produce results. Other members are encouraging and friendly. This is a great place for anyone interested in progressing in their fitness journey.

So I recently decided it was time to get back to the gym after five years. I came across the Cav fitness center in Saint Matthews, and after a wonderful introduction with the owner/trainer, decided to join! One thing I love about this place is the reciprocity between locations. The location I initially went to does not have a noon class, but the gym here in Middletown does. I can go back-and-forth between the two gyms based upon my schedule. Everyone at both of the gyms has been absolutely welcoming and supportive! The trainers are great, and the facility is clean and well organized. I think this is gonna be a long-term deal. Looking forward to getting back on track!

I would highly recommend The Cav as the most well rounded gym for both strength training and cardio workout there is. I am new to the Cav and took their foundation classes to learn the fundamentals of the moves before I took the classes, which helped me out . Both Ivan and Erin are the best coaches to help you understand each move and they make sure you have the proper form so you don’t injure yourself and give you modifications for each move which help me a lot because I am new. I am definitely going to join here because it is the best overall gym in town and I already love it and love the people in the class who are very supportive. I hope you try it out and come see what I am talking about .

Great environment. Quality workout that is efficient on time. Got addicted to getting my butt kicked here. The workouts can be challenging, but showing up is not. I just give it my all every class and that capacity continues to grow. Good people from the coaches to the others who attend the classes. Did a lot of research on other gyms in the area. I didn’t feel like I could get this value elsewhere. I didn’t want to go somewhere and train myself and I also, didn’t want to fall through the cracks. I originally planned on working my way to 3 days a week, but in a little more than a month, I’m motivated to upgrade to the unlimited plan and go up to 6 days a week when my schedule allows. I feel well on my way to achieving my fitness goals of building strength and endurance and being a well-rounded athlete.

I absolutely love The CAV - Middletown! Ivan is truly an amazing coach - he’s incredibly supportive & takes time to ensure everyone is in proper form at all times. He’s also great at pushing members to the next level even when you think you can’t do something. I really appreciate the smaller class sizes as it gives the coaches opportunities to make connections with each member during class. I also really enjoy how each week brings a different mix of cardio, strength & hybrid-focused days. In addition to the coaches ensuring proper technique, they also allocate some time to stretch & rest each class which is so important. Highly recommend The CAV - Middletown to anyone looking for a new fitness home & community.

This was probably one of the most helpful experiences I have been able to have. Ivan was very detail oriented, and did such a great job explaining and simplifying moves to where it was easy to understand. Gabby showing the right way, and the wrong way made the teaching applicable.

One of my favorite things about this clinic, is that we had the opportunity to lift and challenge ourselves with weights utilizing the proper techniques and we all cheered each other on towards the end.I believe that every member should try to take the class at some point!!

The Cav is awesome! The staff were super nice, inviting and helpful. I really like how each day is a different type of workout & that all the workouts are created by them so there’s not repeats but options for modifications if needed. The class sizes are great. Not too many where you can still get assistance if needed but still in a group fitness environment. I’m a cycle girlie so I’ve been looking for ways to incorporate more strength training and I think I’ve found my place!

The CAV has an amazing and energized culture. Allowing for those with athletic backgrounds and those with limited fitness knowledge to work together. If you are looking to be apart of a group, holding each other accountable to your goals, having good laughs, and building a healthier and happier life. The CAV is where you need to be!

Great knowledgeable staff and a welcoming environment. Gyms have always intimidated me as I’m not super fit and have always felt out of place there. Have recently lost some weight and am working towards a healthier lifestyle and decided to give this place a try from a friend’s recommendation and I was not disappointed!! Cant wait to go back!

What an amazing workout. The gym and the staff is top notch and the workout is for all levels. As someone that was a competitive athlete for a long time, and dabbled in CrossFit this gym encompasses all the things I love and need in my workout but can be modified for anyone. If you haven’t already, go check them out!

I cannot recommend this gym enough! I have been a member here for years and have always been impressed by level of service provided by the coaches. Whether you're a seasoned gym-goer or a complete novice, they are happy to help modify the workouts and answer any questions you may have. Everything is kept clean, which is a testament to the care that the staff puts into maintaining the gym.

What really sets this gym apart though is the community. It's a friendly and welcoming environment, plus they schedule some great events for members. I look forward to continuing my fitness journey at The CAV!

Hands down the best gym and community I have been apart of. The Cav will be life changing not only towards helping you achieve your goals but also meeting friends along the way. They have their workout days divided into colors that represent strength, cardio, etc…It’s nice knowing what you’ll be working on each day in advance. Highly recommend!

CAV Fitness is for anyone who wants to take their fitness to the next level in a friendly environment. Every week you will be doing a combination of strength, conditioning, and high-intensity workouts. If you are not able to do a specific exercise, the coach will give you a modification for that workout. Ivan, the head coach of the Middletown location, is a great coach.

If you go to a regular gym, you must plan your workout before you go, find equipment, and you may not time your workout. If you come to CAV, the full 50 minutes are spent on your workout. Very productive and quality workout!

Please come and meet Ivan and take a trial class. You won't be disappointed.

I can’t say enough good things about The CAV Middletown! The community, the workouts, the friendships, the accountability, the increase in confidence & strength both mentally and physically. I had been looking for a place to feel like I “fit in” for so long. Other places felt cliquey to me and I just felt out of place. From the minute I showed up to the CAV, Ivan and Erin made me feel like I had known them for years. Ivan is SUPER knowledgeable and takes the time to make sure form and safety are priority which being a former trainer from many moons ago, I really appreciate and it helps get the most out of each workout. The members became friends and every workout I felt pushed and motivated because they all helped me keep going. I hadn’t looked forward to getting up in the mornings for a long time and I can honestly say the people and the workouts at the CAV changed that. I love that it’s not competing against other people, it’s you vs you and you have a whole support system of people, even from all the other locations to help you keep you going. The other trainers are so great too, Gabby and Dex are so much fun and very knowledgeable and awesome too. If you’re on the fence about joining or nervous or whatever it is holding you back, go try it. I promise you won’t regret it!

This place is awesome! Some people think it's intimidating but once you go, you'll quickly learn it's not at all. The owners are very kind and make you feel welcomed. Every trainer has extensive
knowledge on modifications for everyone’s fitness level. Also the people there are cool too. Every time I join class, it is always a welcomed community vibe. It is a place you can get motivated to push yourself beyond what you thought. You get to see some amazing, dedicated people who put in the work and it shows. You'll really start to understand why consistency is important and you won't want to give up. This is my kind of gym! Thanks Ivan and Erin for having a gym that provides real motivation!

I've tried just about every type of workout/gym, and THE CAV is home for me! I have never been a part of a gym community that has made me feel like I belong. The professional coaching has turned back time for me; giving me back my athleticism, and allowing me to take back my health. The CAV has your back; will meet you where you are, and won't let you give up! Combined with the strong community, impeccable technique, positive attitude, + hard work, you will succeed!
The workouts never get old; they are not only physically challenging, but mentally as well, and I am always learning something new...I'm going on 3.5 years strong, and still blooming!

My wife and I joined to find a different workout experience. Having a personal trainer to help with our technique while lifting weights was important, but the price for that service along with a gym membership was steep. After meeting with Ivan, he really cared to learn about our goals and helped modify exercises based upon our level. The workouts alternate through the week from intense cardio to weight lifting focus. It has been a great experience so far! Although it seemed expensive at first, it allows us a community environment and the equipment to have a full body workout along with the personal trainer for 50 minutes a day. There are small class sizes (less than 12), and it provides the flexibility for early morning or evening workouts. This is a local company that is focused on quality and not growing too fast. We would highly recommend The Cav! Crystal and Mike

The CAV is a great gym. The focus is always on getting a great workout without sacrificing proper form or safety. The coach is highly skilled and can give modified movements when and where they are needed based on individual needs. I have found this to be enormously helpful given my chronic shoulder issue. The atmosphere is so fun. Regardless of how intense the workout it is I always have such a great time with my fellow 6ers!
