I spent almost a year at Focus Fitness and when it came time for my fiancé and I to move out of Austin the first thought I had was: I don’t want
to leave Dave and Hannah!
My experience at Focus Fitness was fantastic. As someone with experience working with virtual trainers I underestimated the benefits of having an in-person trainer. Dave’s decades’ worth of health and fitness knowledge was apparent from day 1. Having him there to explain the “why” behind his personalized programs, demonstrate moves and give feedback on form, and answer questions and troubleshoot in real time was invaluable. On top of that, Dave and Hannah are just awesome people to hang with and I found myself looking forward to every workout as a reprieve from the solitude of work-from-home life.
Dave and Hannah are great listeners, positive, nonjudgmental, and easily adapt to specific people’s workout styles and needs. Focus Fitness gave me the accountability and motivation I needed to stay consistent and I saw great results over the course of my time there. If I were still in Austin I would have no plans of going anywhere else and I highly recommend Focus Fitness to everyone! Dave and Hannah, I miss you guys!!

Thanks to Dave & Hannah, working out was something I looked forward to instead of something I dreaded. Dave is extremely knowledgeable, enthusiastic, encouraging, welcoming, patient, communicative, and a joy to be around. And it's no wonder he brought Hannah on board since she shares all those great qualities.
My fiancee and I did personal training with Dave for about a year and would still be working with him if we hadn't moved out of Austin. Over the course of that year both of us achieved things we'd never done before, whether it was hitting personal records in heavy lifts, being flexible enough to touch my toes, or even do a one-arm chin up. Our time at Focus Fitness was one of the top highlights of our time living there and we will miss Dave & Hannah as friends as much as we will miss their training.
I'd recommend Focus Fitness unconditionally to anyone in Austin who wants to get in better shape while working with some truly good people.

Dave is an incredible personal trainer. He makes working out very approachable and fun.
I like the small group formats of training with 2-3 people, so you get the feeling of having a personal trainer and the camaraderie of a group class.
I would recommend him to anyone, especially if you’re just starting out working out.

I started working with Dave and Hannah about 9 months ago and each day I'm more amazed to see how I've transformed in that time.
As someone who has always suffered from social anxiety, I've always avoided going to crowded gyms and have tried and failed numerous times to keep my own home gym routines.
Focus Fitness has changed everything for me. They foster a fun, non-judgmental environment with hand-tailored, rotating workouts to help anyone reach their fitness goals. Additionally, its allowed me to enjoy getting out more and being more social which has been a huge confidence boost.
Overall, this experience has been life changing. I'm in the best shape of my life AND my mental health has never been better.
Thank you again Dave and Hannah!

I really enjoy the environment, it is intimate and personal. The team is very professional, the space is well equipped, and the atmosphere is exactly what you hope for in small group training.

Highly, highly recommend! I began training with Dave 2 years ago when I decided to start my health journey but didn't know where to begin. I had little to no experience in a gym environment and was looking for a trainer who could show me the ropes using the equipment, maintaining an exercise plan, and creating a realistic nutrition plan. I have LOVED my time working with Dave at Focus Fitness because of the comfortable, inclusive, supportive, and fun environment he's created. Now I look forward to the days I workout!

I’ve had an exceptionally good experience working with Dave. He creates an atmosphere that is supportive and unintimidating. For me, his training plan has hit exactly the right balance between being difficult enough to feel like I have accomplished something and see results, and being easy and enjoyable enough to look forward to the next workout. This is a very different, and better, experience than I’ve had in large gyms.

I cannot recommend Focus Fitness enough! Since 2019 when I began, I have experienced a transformative journey that goes far beyond just physical fitness.
The small group personal training appealed to me initially because I had a lot of gym anxiety, was not athletic, and knew nothing about lifting. I met with Dave and immediately felt comfortable and safe. The custom workout plans Dave creates are tailored to my specific goals and needs and I have seen significant improvements in my strength, mobility, and overall endurance.
What sets Focus Fitness apart is their holistic approach to wellness. Beyond the physical gains, they prioritize mental health, creating a positive and supportive environment during our sessions, which fosters a sense of accomplishment that extends beyond the gym. Perhaps the most valuable and unexpected outcomes have been the notable mental health benefits and lasting friendships.
If you're looking for personal training that genuinely cares about your health and understands the crucial connection between physical and mental well-being, look no further. Five stars are simply not enough to express my gratitude for the positive impact Focus Fitness has had on my life.

I have been training with Dave at Focus Fitness for over a year and a half and I couldn't be happier with the results! Dave has an incredible vibe that is very motivating and leads to very productive sessions. What really sets him/FF apart is the “community feel” and the awesome music selection — which adds an extra boost of energy to my workouts! He is also very knowledgeable about nutrition and how all your bones and muscle work, he’s very smart in that area and continues to keep up with his education. I highly recommend Dave as a personal trainer – he’s fantastic!

Focus Fitness is the best gym in Austin to get in shape, get stronger and look your best - as a busy guy I love how it only takes a few visits a week with Dave to make consistent progress.

I cannot recommend Dave enough! I began working with him to get in shape for my wedding, and it was one of the best decisions I've ever made.
Dave is exceptional, providing tailored workouts and personalized attention to help me achieve my fitness goals. His expertise and guidance have been invaluable on my fitness journey.
Not only is the training top-notch, but the atmosphere is incredibly welcoming. From the moment I stepped foot into the gym, I immediately felt a positive vibe and a warm sense of community. It truly feels like a family here and is refreshing to be part of such an uplifting environment where everyone supports and encourages each other.

Get in here! I came to Focus Fitness with goals to feel better, get stronger and manage some chronic health issues. After six months, I am thrilled with my progress on these goals. What sets Focus Fitness apart is the atmosphere, so different from the cold and competitive gyms I was used to. Focus Fitness is a community of people; excellent trainers, staff and fellow clients who are friendly and supportive.

Small and intimate. Clean. Everyone greets you(including other people doing their workout) and Dave and his staff are awesome. Very knowledgeable about fitness and they all really want to help you reach your goals, no matter what they are. If I could add a few more stars I would.

I have pretty good experience going to Focus Fitness for about a year now. The focus is strength training with individual attention from Dave and his trainers. The small size helps in creating a good community feeling. Dave and his trainers motivate everyone to work to their full potential. I initially joined for three months but have been going there for a year now and will be continuing for another year for sure! I highly recommend Focus Fitness!

I have been a member for 6 months now and the Focus Fitness Team continue to help me pursue my goal of weight loss. I have lost just over 50 pounds with their help. The combination of dietary guidance and exercise has been instrumental in my initial loss. There is no silver bullet here, just a sound approach that is manageable and maintainable.
The philosophy and vision of Focus Fitness is one that is client-first and very customized. I am looking forward to the next six months and continuing my pursuit of weight loss and getting into better shape.
Thanks Dave and Focus Fitness!

I’ve been a member here for about a year and a half now through pregnancy and now postpartum. Yes, I love the personalized and advancing exercises but I really love the community feel of the gym. The trainers are excellent, knowledgeable, and personable to boot. What can I say? Feels like home.

Ever find one of those places that just feels right and makes you realize how important community is when choosing a place to work out and achieve your fitness goals? I've found that with Focus Fitness. The consultation was in-depth and made me feel like the focus was on me and my health and fitness, and not just selling me a workout package. The workouts are challenging but achievable, and they may just make me a fan of foam rolling after all.

Dave is a fantastic professional in his field! My wife and I both took part in 1 of his kick start programs. He understands that different body types have different nutritional and fitness needs. I have multiple chronic joint issues and he was able to help me to modify different exercises to fit within my limitations.

In May 2018 I did the Kick Start at Focus Fitness with Dave. What an Amazing Time I had exercising and learning how to eat right. I can’t say enough how much I enjoyed this 30 day process. Dave is so very personable he makes you feel like he has known you forever and that you can share anything. I have tried many different diet plans but this one actually works. I was able to wear clothes I haven’t worn in years. I’m looking better, feeling better and moving better. Thanks Dave for helping me get my life back.

I signed up for the focus fitness Kickstart balanced habits program and I had awesome results. They help you plan meals, work you out and learn how to eat healthier. I strongly recommend looking Dave up if you want to kickstart your body into a better lifestyle.

Focus Fitness is awesome. Dave developed an individualized plan for me and my goals. He also helped make sure I didn't get over fatigued with the exercises which has been an issue for me in the past. The semi-private is a great way to be held accountable while still getting a more affordable price. I have had many personal trainers, and he is one of the best. I recommend giving it a few months, if you really want to see results.

This place will change your life! Having been active and training for years as an athlete, I sadly reached a place of lethargic, sedentary lifestyle. I spent years unable to do most physical activities for longer than 10 minutes.I recently found Focus Fitness and I am experiencing results faster than I have ever experienced with any other trainer or gym. David Schulze has created an amazing program that is highly catered to your needs, and it's a really positive environment. The best part about his workouts is that you don't feel like you need a recovery period (you know, the feeling when you can't stand back up after you sit down). He has a great offer for you to try his program out too! Even if you are not preparing to be in the best physique of your life and just want to feel more energetic, and healthier, do yourself a solid and visit this guy! I'm incredibly happy with this company!

Dave is the best. I have been struggling with shoulder pain from injuries I got from years of Crossfit workouts. Dave developed a program designed to help me build strength in areas that would help me prevent pain. My shoulder pain is less since working with Dave!

I signed up to train with Dave last March to help get in shape for my wedding in August. It was one of the best wedding planning decisions I made! Dave designed a fitness and nutritional plan to help me reach my goals, and was so helpful and encouraging along the way. I felt so happy and confident at my wedding, and am looking forward to continuing the training this fall. I highly recommend Focus Fitness!

This is a nice fitness care facility owned and operated by a fitness professional who gives satisfying personal attention and creates fitness routine based on individual's needs. Certainly helpful for someone like me who feel less interested in physical activity, although feel its necessity. All together, a pleasant experience.

I have been a member of Focus Fitness for about a month now. Dave is great!!!! I wanted personal training because I wanted a commitment to a person to keep me accountable, and to have a professional guiding me every step of the way. And he absolutely does that with just the right amount of challenge. I really love that it's a small gym and I see the same faces every time too. I would highly recommend this company!!

I came to Focus Fitness over two years ago to improve my functional strength and flexibility. I also wanted to maintain a healthy weight. I am very pleased with the results that I have achieved with Dave's coaching. I also enjoy the laid back atmosphere and positive vibe I get while working out at Focus Fitness.

Focus Fitness is the place to be. David offers custom workouts that challenge and move you toward your specific goals. No matter what level, you will feel comfortable and safe in the non-intimidating homey environment. The camaraderie is unbeatable. David, Adam, and all the members encourage each other during workouts and also provide great conversation. It's my go to place for movie reviews. Seriously, David is very open to all the members and is always taking their input to make Focus Fitness the best gym. The music is fantastic too. :)

I've been working with Focus Fitness for over a year now and I feel great and have made better progress with my fitness than when I tried using a gym. I used a big box gym based trainer before and was disappointed - after a couple of months of my not meeting his goals, he would get bored and wander off to work or chat with others instead of working with me. After (jumping through hoops) leaving that gym, my aim was to find a trainer who stayed focused on my goals, who worked with me to achieve them, but (most importantly) who didn't get discouraged or bored when I didn't match where they thought I should be on their timeline. I started with Focus after a recommendation from a friend who told me this would be different.
Dave and his crew tailored training programs to match my ability, and I didn't catch any flak (or garner any boredom) for my wobbly performance getting there. The programs are enjoyable and working out doesn't get stale since he changes them every few weeks to target a different fitness area/level.
I *highly* recommend Focus Fitness if your goal, like mine, is to find a program that lets you work at your own pace to achieve results.

Dave is full of energy and his passion for healthy living is infectious! He is very knowledgeable and I felt he genuinely cared about my health and fitness and wanted to help me reach my goals. His fitness studio is just what I'm looking for - private, clean, and in a great location! I look forward to training with him this year.

I was in Austin for a few weeks on business and wanted to get a great workout in with a personal trainer, so I called David at Focus Fitness to see what he had to offer. I told him I was from out of town, and he welcomed me with open arms! Told me about his programs and explained how variety was good after a weeks, and offered open gym times on saturdays on top of everything! It was a great experience, and for anyone looking for a trainer in the area I couldn't recommend anyone else. By far one of the best trainers I know.

David Schulze, the owner, has a true passion for fitness, but also for people. He spent over an hour with me on a Saturday when I was struggling to get to know the person who walked through the door. He reminds me of ABC's trainer, Chris Powell; knowledgeable, compassionate, and with expectations. My last trainer at another gym spent most of my $80 session talking to other women in the gym - This will NOT happen at Focus Fitness. David has pride in his business. It is immaculate, appointed with great equipment, and is owned by one of the best, most motivated trainers in Austin. I highly recommend Focus Fitness!
