Thrive Fitness

I love Thrive Fitness. It’s a gym where you can go and work hard, sweat and knock it out with some of the best trainers in Atlanta. This is a no nonsense place and they don’t give powder puff training sessions. You definitely get the one on one attention tailored for your personal needs. I highly recommend Thrive and I currently train with Jeremy!

I have been working out with Jeremy for about 6 months and have seen excellent results. I’ve lost about 30 pounds in this time. He’s extremely committed to his clients and works with your schedule. He is also very quick to adapt to different workouts if you have any injuries. All in all, he’s an amazing trainer who shows great results!
All of the trainers are extremely friendly and professional! Great place, highly recommended!

Personable atmosphere, knowledgable and friendly staff, excellent results. Highly recommended.

Great spot. All trainers are professional and produce results. Can’t say enough about the guys. They initially conduct a free body fat assessment and dig deep to understand your health, body goals and schedule. Appreciated their commitment to keeping you focus and accountable.
I was not looking to loose weight but to tone, gain strength, and become healthier.
Deveren and Lloyd will challenge you but will also equip you with a wealthy of nutritional knowledge and overall health benefits.

My wife and I have been working out with Lloyd Garden, (he is the owner and one of the personal trainers) for the last year and it has been a great experience. I had ACL knee surgery a few years ago, and although I was finished with rehab, I still did not have full strength back in my legs, so I went to Thrive to see if they can help me out, and my wife signed up with me. Not only am I back at full strength and my wife and I are in the best shape of our lives. I’m able to wakeboard, snowboard, run, etc with no issues. Lloyd and one of the other trainers, Deveren, are both former NFL players. All of the trainers there are in great shape. They are professional, fun, very patient and they work with people at varying fitness levels. There are people who I see working out there who are in their 20’s and there are people in their 50’s.
Lloyd has also helped us with better eating habits and we’ve adopted a much healthier lifestyle with his advice. I saw a review that someone said that they are pushing protein shakes? He did ask us if we wanted to buy protein from his gym one time but we aren’t into protein shakes so we didn’t buy them. He hasn’t asked us about it since then so I’m not sure what they’re talking about. The workouts are very different than anything I’ve ever done. Its mostly functional training, which means that you’re not just hitting the bench press trying to muscle out more weight than your buddies. The workouts we do typically involve just your body weight, or kettle bells, medicine balls, and some weights. Needless to say it is really challenging and I walk out of there each time pretty worn out, but not so exhausted that I’m going to vomit or something. I work out harder here than I can on my own but he doesn’t push us over the edge to where we’re suffering through workouts. I actually look forward to my workouts instead of dreading them.
The gym itself is a no-​nonsense place; it’s not a meet market. You won’t see people talking on their Bluetooth the whole time while they walk on the treadmill and there’s not a bunch of mead heads bench pressing 500lbs, flexing while flirting with poor girls who are trying to work out. It’s a fun atmosphere with good music playing out loud and people who are working out hard. We do 2 on 1 personal training sessions, that are 45 minutes long, there are people there doing 1 on 1’s and I see people doing group workouts. I’ve observed other people while I’m working out there who have also got into way better shape than when I first saw them in the short amount of time that I’ve been working out there. If you want results, this place is awesome.

The trainers at Thrive Fitness listen to you and want you to be better then you think you can be. I have had personal trainers, and they worked, but I always felt alone in my stuggle to be healthy. Everyone at Thrive knows who you are. Wether you are trying to loose weight or just trying to stay healthy this is the place to be. I have been there for over 1 year and attend class 2 – 3 times a week-​not because I have to, but because I want to. Still one year later, I feel a sense of accomplishment when I leave. Classes have people from 20 years old to 55 in them and no one judges, only praises. A big hug and thanks to Melody for believing in all of us,.

I can’t believe there isn’t a review for this place already. It’s friggin AWESOME!!!
I swore I’d never do bootcamp. e-v-e-rrr…then a Groupon deal came along that was too good to pass on. I was sold after the first class, the next day I was ridiculously sore. but it’s so addictive I kept going and almost 6 weeks later I’m signed up as a regular member. This is a no-​joke place to workout. not for the posers and people who do their hair and makeup BEFORE working out. you know who you are ;)
I love everything about Thrive. the location is great. the trainers are beyond AWESOME (especially Melody!!).you will be pushed to your max but your body will thank you for it :)
p.s it’s clean and doesn’t have that sweaty stench that can linger around at other big box gyms.
