I worked out here to give it a try and it was amazing! It definitely lived up to my expectations, even superseded them. It's an environment that will force you to work hard, and they have options that will allow you to refuel after a workout that's healthy, contrary to some of the gyms I've been to before. I look forward to my journey with them and will be signing up on Friday! More...

The atmosphere was comfortable and the staff is helpful and encouraging. I was definitely out of my comfort zone and was completely pumped and excited about my experience. The class I took was challenging for me, but they have different classes, each with a different intensity level. I would certainly recommend going. More...

I have been going to the muscle cave for just over 4 months, and I couldn't be happier with this place. What started as a short term need to lose a little weight before a wedding, has turned into an almost daily routine. Doug and Franny are the sweetest people ever. Franny always greets me at the bar with a smile, and is ready to help with any questions I have. Doug has found a way to train and push me while being very supportive and motivational. I'm down 20 lbs, I'm stronger, and I feel so much better about myself than I have in a very long time. I highly recommend this gym! More...

Great place to work out and positive folks. Great parking lot for me to pull in with my 18 wheeler with or without 53' trailer and get an hour workout in. I'm glad I was introduced to the Muscle Cave by a friend back in April and stuck with it even after she quit on me. Thank you Doug and Fran for great workouts. More...

Several months ago I took out on a journey to find a HIIT workout facility. I visited a few and came back for a workout at The Muscle Cave because on my 1st visit as I walked in the door Doug Cochran met me with his hand out welcoming in. He took the time to explain everything. He showed me testimonials of clients, explained the workouts. How I can go at my own pace. This is my first journey into this type environment. All the sessions are different so you work out your body in many areas. Very high intensity designed to raise your heart rate then lower it. This cycles continues for 1 hour. During the workout Doug Cochran is there to help at any time. Like getting a personal trainer in a group setting. When Franny Cochran is there you better watch out. She is a beast & will work you to the max. I can guarantee you this. If you come and apply yourself you will get results. When I done each workout, my body just rains with sweat. Best, most affordable group workout place in Central Texas. More...

What to say about my gym crush?

Well I can't stay a away. It's constantly whispering my name or is that Franny from The Muscle Cave bar and gym. Lol...
The greatest pleasure in life is doing what people say you can not do. I try to run with my heart and not my legs but my lungs get in the way at times. It's the days when my body aches and my desire is low. When I feel tired and week. Those are the days I train harder at The Muscle Cave bar and gym. I love you gym, you are who I run to when I'm stressed! Thank you for always being there when I need you. And of course this crush I have wouldn't be possible without the wonderful trainers. I love it here. Franny and Doug are the best trainers ever! The people here are awesome! Come and visit. Be apart of our Muscle Cave fam... More...

Words cannot begin to describe how amazing this gym and its trainers are. I’ve never been one to enjoy working out. But this place will help you fall in love with it. Whether you workout a lot or if it’s your first time in a gym atmosphere. The trainers and patrons will make you feel so comfortable. I’ve been with The Muscle Cave for a year and have never felt more amazing and encouraged by anyone as much as I do here. 5 stars just isn’t enough to give them. They always go above and beyond.
