I started training at Atomic in August. I soon realized my idea of working out until then was just adorable! Aw your heart is beating? How cute.I had heard people saying the phrase "Harder to Kill" a lot, and saw it adorned on t-shirts and bumper stickers galore, but never really considered how that applied to my life.All I knew about harder was "I'm 30 minutes into a Viper HIIT session and it's getting harder to keep going"But that changed this weekend. The philosophy became way more personal.I drove out to Lost Maples State Park to enjoy some fall foliage. I was expecting a flat, serene park with the occasional pretty fall- colored tree, but what was waiting for me was far different. It was a five mile trek uphill/downhill through a thick forest of trees. On top of that, visibility was at near 0, with constant drizzling rain and it was cold. Add to that, copious amounts of mud, and it was not the traditional hike of my mountain lover self.At one point, the trail turned into a straight mile and a half steep incline of huge rocks. A sign warned of what lied ahead. As I began my ascent, I approached a family of about 5 adults and 5 kids. I overheard one little girl say in agony, "I'm gonna die today. I'm gonna die today from a mountain. How much further? This sucks." To which her relative replied, "You can't die from a mountain. Maybe from being out of shape though."I couldn't help but giggle to myself when I heard that. I instantly thought of the guys at Atomic and bounded faster up the rocks past the family. This was fun, I thought. This feels like what I have spent months training for. Agility, strength, mental focus, speed, stamina, all of it came together as I bounded up the slippery rocks towards the peak of the mountain. That mountain may have wanted me to get it, but Atomic made me harder to kill!Thanks guys!! You rock!! (no pun intended or was it?) More...

By far, head over heels, far and way, #1; there aren't enough ways to say that this is the best gym in Austin. The programming is unreal and has a lot of thought behind it. The coaches communicate the reasoning behind the programming and send out weekly updates on how the cycles are progressing and how to address your training. They also offer various paths for training within specific programs. ALSO, if you reach out about specific deficiencies or injuries, they'll provide suitable substitutions. The environment and community is one you won't find anywhere else in Austin. From the coaches to the members at your side, you won't find a more supportive squad than the hard charging folks at Atomic Athlete. I'll be moving out of state for work soon and am 100% sure I'll never find another gym like this. If you go to a gym of any sort I assume your goal is to improve. By this measure, Atomic Athlete is the ONLY gym you should consider in Austin as it'll give you the best opportunity to become a better human. More...

Thoughtful isn’t the word you’d normally use to describe a gym, but there’s truly no better word to describe Atomic Athlete. They’re thoughtful about creating an excellent culture that pushes each individual to break past their limits. They’re thoughtful about their training methods, and they’re meticulous about every detail. They’re thoughtful about knowing the science behind their programming and helping you understand how to benefit the most from it. They’re thoughtful about getting to know their customers. They’re thoughtful about making everyone, “Stronger, Faster, and harder to kill.” Don’t think twice.... Train at Atomic! More...

Have you ever shit your pants and been proud of it?Me neither. (Looks both ways)But if I did, I'd want it to be at Atomic Athlete - fighting my way through the ascent of a new all-time personal record back squat. Red-faced, with bloodshot eyes, and a barbell on my back clad with 10 plates.I imagine it'd be one of my proudest moments of my training career.. . . Involuntary BMs aside . . .If you're looking to set some new personal records of your own (or just looking for a great community to train with) - these guys have what it takes to get you where you want to go (and far beyond).Whether you're a competitive cyclist, back-country hunter,  martial artist, powerlifter, trail runner, warfighter, or just a normal guy or gal who fancies mimosas on the weekends (and sometimes Friday mornings) . . .If you train with Atomic Athlete and adhere to the programming, you WILL hit personal records. Over and over and over and over and over again (in the words of Marshawn Lynch).All jokes aside. I love this place. I love the programming. I love the community that it's created. And I love the guys that created it and made the rest possible.They are some of the sharpest in the industry. They apply the scientific method to their programming. And they have the humility to challenge themselves and evaluate what works and what doesn't. They're hella kind and fun too.If you're reading this, intrigued, I encourage you come over to Atomic Athlete to check it out. More...

Atomic Athlete: take all my money! I am a huge tightwad and was reluctant to even attend a free week, suspecting I'd really like it and not be able to justify the expense compared to my $40/mo membership at the time. That was four years ago. I'm still training at Atomic, and I love it. 1. These guys know what they're doing. I've been to gyms in the past where I could tell the instructors didn't understand the science behind what they were doing or seemed to be making things up on the fly. All of the workouts follow a progression and have a purpose. Plus, the coaches are great at instructing new movements, correcting form, and pushing athletes individually. It's so nice to be able to walk into a class without having to plan my own workouts.2. I'm in the best shape of my life.

I've been training at Atomic for about 8 years now. When I started working out there, I couldn't even make it through a full workout. My background in middle distance running didn't prepare me for the mix of short intervals, high intensity, and heavy-weight that Atomic throws at you. It did prepare me for the mental grind that you have to endure to make it through some of the workouts. That may sound like a negative but it's not. I love the struggle and that's what you can expect with Atomic. That and an awesome community of coaches and athletes that work hard and check their ego at the door. Today I'm as fit as I've ever been and I can certainly hold my own but their programming is designed to keep you on your toes. It's amazing how Atomic always exposes areas that need improvement. I'm still finding there's plenty to improve upon and I guess that's why I keep coming back. More...

One stop shop. Kool-aid free. Can't say enough about the programing here. LEAVE UR EGO AT THE DOOR. In depth review I've been in Austin since 2009 tried a lot of gyms over the years. I have been a competitive athlete my entire life. My idea of fit is everything. I want to be well rounded. Strong, fast, endurance, flexible.The best in town for all around athlete. You will get better at everything. Cardio, strength, agility, work capacity. Everything is built in. Each program is different. You aren't working out just for the sake of working out. No stagnation of the same Ole routine of many boutique gyms like Lemon theory or any other that claim to be well rounded. Soo many places neglect some major aspects of fitness. Some gyms focus on lifting too much and too heavy ( maxing out constantly) some don't have any pull ups some don't have any barbell, some don't have sprints or endurance cardio / endurance lifts. If you want to get stronger and faster with better endurance and better mobility just show up to work out on the regular here.Programs range from 6-10 or 12 weeks with obtainable goals. These guys break it down for you in weekly emails. Catalogs of demos in every lift online. Most programs are made for three days a week. With two accessory optional workouts. Do of you can only make it three days a week you are still getting the benefits of the cycle you are in. Prefect for any level athlete. They offer modifications for any injury or limitation. These guys have a great track record of injury prevention. I have never seen so many fit 20, 30, 40, 50 year Olds ever! More...
