Sacrifice Training — Local services in Pflugerville

Edit: 2 years into going here and I feel better than ever. This place was and is transformative every day. Go here to get strong and or lose weight. Highly endorse.

Original post: Bryson's staff are professional, encouraging, motivating, and if you consistently show up, they will coach you to getting results with OlyFit.

I did a three day free trial the week of Thanksgiving, started as a member in December, and roughly two months in I've added six pounds of lean muscle and lost over 6% body fat (I've not seriously weight trained before so I know that those two trends don't usually happen at the same time for experienced lifters). I'm a beginner and never felt intimidated by the classes.

There's a diversity of ages and levels of fitness in the co-ed classes but everyone encourages each other and is welcoming and encouraging to newcomers.

The workouts change every day but on strength days there are a lot of Olympic movement barbell lifts and a ton of other stuff that has pushed me to be consistently comfortably uncomfortable. I also end up pushing myself harder than I would training at home or with a video class on the metabolic conditioning days.

I love it and I'm getting results fast just by showing up 4-5 times a week. During the early 2023 ice storm, I was missing out on my classes so much and couldn't wait to get back.

I'm sleeping earlier, sleeping better, eating cleaner, and waking up at 5:30am to get to a 6am class, which I thought I'd never do. My posture is better too.

Eric, Aliah, Devyn, and Traci each take the time to get to know you and continue to welcome you when you come in. It's a supportive environment and the trainers come up with modified routines for those who have injuries or other physical limitations.

You are encouraged to start as light as you need and work your way up. There are people lifting light weights or just the bar and nobody smirks or judges (as far as I can see!). I started light, am still very much a beginner, and I feel welcome at every class.

I know most of the others in the classes because there are three per day so you see a lot of the same faces after going for a couple weeks.

Five stars. I...

If you are looking to get in better shape (mind & body), get faster, be a better athlete or just improve your overall strength/conditioning, this is the place for you. I had gone through a pretty significant weight loss journey before stepping foot into Sacrifice Training. I drove by the gym for a couple YEARS and thought, next week I'll call or go in. Next week finally came after two years, and I got to train with Coach Traci Young. I was not a fan of typical commercial gyms and was apprehensive. Not only has Traci's training been wonderful for me mentally, I am physically stronger and able to do things I hadn't been able to do in 20 years, when I was a teenager. Traci is encouraging, kind, tough (in the best coaching aspects), and keeps me accountable. As a former D1 college athlete and teacher, she understands my goals better than anyone, and we work towards them week in and week out. Everything about this gym is a team mentality.

What sets this gym apart? The ethos that runs through this place, the owner and trainers lead by EXAMPLE. Everyone here is a leader, a mentor, and a coach. I can't recommend this place enough, no matter your age or sport. You will be better mentally & physically, and have all the tools you need to feel...

My daughter's goal (see what I did there!) was to commit to playing soccer in college. Every critique from coaches was for her to improve her speed and explosiveness. Enter Coach Bryson at Sacrifice Training. He truly knows his stuff! Not only was he extremely knowledgeable and effective, he somehow made the training fun. Yes, my daughter looked forward to her training, in the Texas heat, in July! Coach Bryson made her sessions enjoyable with his chill vibe (my daughter's words) and good-natured sense of humor. He made her laugh through the pain. LOL! After every session, she was pumped and confident! My daughter ended up receiving a lot of great college offers to play soccer, and she committed to her dream school! The facility was clean, and the coaches and other members were very friendly, making you feel right at home! You can tell the coaches really enjoy what they do. Coach Bryson is an excellent communicator, very organized, and did his best to work with our crazy schedule. THANK YOU, Coach Bryson, for running a great gym and training program. I highly recommend booking an eval. Let Coach Bryson take you to the next level. He absolutely did...
