A long overdue review:I originally visited Kinitro for 5 months in 2022-2023.Whether your coming in as an athlete to train or an average enthusiast looking for a good workout, Kinitro will have something for you. I was here for a short stint of time but all the people at the gym and the employees were kind, considerate, and encouraging for whatever fitness goals somebody was coming in for.Accessibility - Hours of the gym are good. Because of how class oriented this gym is, you may have to work around groups if they require certain equipment for training on that day. Checking in/out is via front desk but if you are a frequent visitor, it is much faster.Lockers - There are some small lockers near the entrance that allows you to store your things away. The lock is built into the lockers so you don't need to worry about having one on hand.Cleanliness - Very clean space with proper cleaning stations when your done with the equipment. The place is always kept very tidy whenever I visited.Offerings - I cannot say much about this other than the classes but I feel like this is what makes this place special. You've got conditioning and strongman, of which the latter I participated in. Julie the instructor does a very good job of teaching correct form and pushing you when it matters. Everybody else in the class is also super encouraging and it makes you want to stay committed to the journey.Equipment - A standout of this gym imo. While there are machines available, the free weights / special equipment is the highlight. Perfect for anyone who is serious about their training.Price - As a regular gym for those who just want to train on their own, this place can be considered pricier. Combining with classes will be slightly more but is worth it. The main draw here compared to other gyms is how anyone coming in will not only have a great workout, but be part of an amazing community.Customer Service - Excellent. You won't be pushed to get anything you don't need. Your personal health and fitness is important here and it shows as Kinitro will work with providing the best plan for you. Cancellation is hassle-free and if anything comes up, your concern is always addressed promptly.Unfortunately, I had to leave Kinitro as I was moving cities but the community I made there is unforgettable. I've bounced around so many different kinds of fitness programs but strongman at Kinitro got me hooked. Not being able to find any equipment at other gyms on par with Kinitro, I decided to make my own in the garage. Hopefully I can come back someday to train again!

Really good personal coaching by John but really all the coaches here are fantastic, great vibe and facility with everything you need in a gym. I have also used the nutrition coaching and the sports massage - Kinitro has the whole package. Highly recommended!

My high schooler had practically a one on one training session with the staff at Kinitro through their Thanksgiving and winter break camps. He had a great time and learned correct form while building muscle. Will definitely be back!

I joined Kinitro in January 2023, and it has become like a second home to me. I started out as a beginner:1. I was not familiar with most gym equipment2. I was not knowledgeable about lifting, and3. I was someone who was always easily intimidated in fitness spaces.However, Kinitro hands down has the most welcoming environment. The coaches and gym members are incredibly kind and supportive. They genuinely want to see you succeed in all your fitness goals. I attended 172 strength and conditioning classes in 2023 at Kinitro, and I can confidently say that I have enjoyed every single class. My improvements in muscle strength and endurance have been significant since joining. Not to mention, the gym itself is clean and well-equipped. I firmly believe that Kinitro is the best gym in Houston.If you work out in the mornings like me, I strongly recommend attending the Strength and Conditioning classes with Coach Mark! He takes the time to get to know all athletes and their needs/goals, and is constantly finding new ways for each athlete to challenge themselves. He has helped me with my form in all the major lifts (i.e. deadlift, back squat, and bench press), and he brings all the energy, which is much needed in the mornings. He genuinely wants to see you improve, and he makes you believe in yourself.Lastly, the nutrition coaching (shoutout to Taylor) completely changed my relationship with food. She really knows what she is talking about, and she makes time for all her clients!This is the gym to join in 2024, trust me!! ?

I have been a member of Kinitro Fitness since May 2023. Prior to joining, I had primarily worked out on my own at local or home gyms, and did not necessarily feel I needed the involvement of a personal trainer. Having seen the light, I have been fortunate to have the owner John guide me through my fitness and health. The gym itself is clean, well-stocked, spacious and welcoming for any person interested in their fitness journey. Gym classes and trainers are all-encompassing and attentive to attendees regardless of his or her level of activity and goals.Although I have only trained with John, it is evident that the atmosphere all trainers seek to promote is one of not only encouragement, but also expanding ones level of fitness. They are friendly, responsive to phone calls, and appear genuinely vested in who they train. If you have been on the fence as I was about changing the way you approach your personal health, I strongly recommend this gym as a way to challenge yourself with the support of a great team and environment.

HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!! This facility is clean and beautiful. Kinitro has a variety of strength training and conditioning equipment/classes that they offer. Also, their focus on athletic performance is so unique to the gym world and super convenient for me as a full-time working mom. I've been able to keep up with my strength training routine while also providing an opportunity for my daughter to grow in her soccer skills. Additionally, my daughter has had the opportunity to explore barbell strength training as well and she is LOVING it!!

Great space for the community and welcoming atmosphere. Versatile trainers and very family friendly space - you’ll see people bring their kids and spouses to exercise together. My personal trainer, Julie, is super professional, knowledgeable, and extremely patient with me - she has been pivotal in helping me get back in shape and stay consistent with my health this year.

I’ve been a member of this fantastic gym for nearly two years now, and it’s the best gym experience I’ve ever had. As mentioned by numerous others, the facilities are incredibly clean and spacious, with a large abundance and variety of equipment. Similarly, the gym offers classes and coaching to suit any fitness level and goal a member may have, whether it be sport-specific, olympic weightlifting technique, youth training, everyday general fitness/conditioning, and much more. The staff and trainers are always very warm, kind, and welcoming. It’s immediately apparent how encouraging, supportive, and attentive they are to members’ goals and well-being. Even if one doesn’t partake in classes or specific training, the semi-private feel and access to so much equipment and space through an open gym membership is well worth it alone, and easily beats any commercial gym around. The members themselves are also very friendly, generous, and courteous to all. It’s very evident that the gym fosters a very inclusive community and inviting atmosphere where everyone can feel completely comfortable to be themselves and focus on what feels good and empowering. Cannot recommend this gym enough! A great place to invest in your physical, mental, and emotional health!

This is a great gym and is reflected by the owner himself. Very genuine and personable and he is on top of his game when it comes to ensuring you have a great experience throughout your fitness journey. From the minute you enter the door to the moment you walk out, you’re definitely going to leave feeling different. Equipment is top notch, environment is friendly, facility is well maintained, merchandise inventory are must haves, and staff-trainers are well versed. Words can only describe but you surely need to check it out for yourself. YOU WILL NOT REGRET IT!

I was never a fan of the small gyms. I'd always gone to 24Hr or LaFitness but Kinitro really changed my mind. The bootcamp classes keep it interesting, challenging and there's a good variety on the type of classes to take. Of course there's also open gym if you want to do your own thing. Everyone there is really friendly (members & staff alike), equipment is clean/always put back, and plenty of space. There's additional services like the ice bath, massage, physical therapy, for those who want more. If you're looking for a gym with a welcoming and team vibe, this is the place.

Good, well equipped facility with good racks a decent barbells. The staff is friendly and there is ample parking even during busy times. Well worth the money for the open gym if you are needing to move weight.
