Catalyst Personal Training

Finding a personal trainer is very different than simply joining a gym. You have to be able to put total trust into a trainer who takes the time to get to know your goals, needs, and limits. That trainer has to understand what you are capable of and what your threshold is - so a customized fitness program can be created just for you. Scott, the owner of Catalyst Personal Training is just such a trainer. His vast knowledge and expertise combined with extreme patience has made my 2.5 months at Catalyst a wonderful experience. I couldn’t imagine I would enjoy exercising so much! Every session is a different work out. Scott takes the time to explain the purpose behind every exercise so I understand the reason for the motion and the weight. He evaluates his clients’ progress and continually challenges, sharing in our victories. When I have a setback Scott is right there to put me back on the road toward my goals. Catalyst does not have an intimidating environment like many hard core gyms. It is relaxed with no pressure and no competition – that is Scott’s influence. His clients are his first priority. I like knowing that for that one hour I’m not just a membership number – I’m a person that my trainer is putting forth effort to help fashion a healthier, fitter me. That’s what makes Catalyst Personal Training and Scott special.

If you are new to the world of fitness (like I am), Scott is incredibly helpful and patient in teaching you new exercises and making sure that your form/technique is correct. Not only is he very practical, but he can also push you to work harder without being annoying or crass. He also makes sure that your goals/expectations are realistic as well, which gives you a sense of fulfillment and achievement when you reach them! Moreover, I love that Scott is quite flexible in his schedule (Given enough time, of course) and really tries to work with your schedule. Very important!! In short, it is definitely money well spent. Although the gym can be a little hard to find at first, it is especially clean. Also, the people I have met there (including other clients) have been very welcoming and encouraging... which is a huge plus for me. There's nothing I find more intimidating than being the fat kid in a room full of jacked guys who can eat you for breakfast! There is no such thing here at Catalyst-- only positive vibes. A great sign of any professional is the willingness to receive criticism and feedback, and Scott really takes the time to listen to your feedback (and to answer any science/fitness questions you may throw at him). This is Houston's hidden gem.

I've been training at Catalyst Personal Training for over a year now and it's been a great experience thus far! The trainers extremely professional and knowledgeable. I also love how the gym is small and private so you never feel intimidated by large crowds and there is always equipment available. The 1 on 1 experience is also great to get the attention you need to get the best results. I'm very happy with my decision to become a member and definitely recommend it to anyone interested.

Catalyst personal training is one of the greatest experiences that I have had in my life to date. It is beyond any experience you will have with other personal trainers, and believe me, I have tried. From the moment I first spoke to Scott to inquire about training, I knew this was going to be different. The professionalism, punctuality, and personability of the staff is unparalleled. Scott and the staff really take the time to get to know you, the goals you want to achieve, and learn your baseline fitness level at the consultation. The prices are more than fair for the top-tier training and service you will receive. Catalyst Personal Training has changed not only my appearance, my health, but it changed my lifestyle for the better. I am an extremely busy person, and Scott’s flexibility with hours makes this the perfect combo for anyone who is trying to live a healthy life, but has a life outside of fitness. I would give this 6 out of 5 stars if I could, recommend to anyone who wants to change their lives for the better!
