I had the opportunity to be coached by Luis. What stood out to me was the attention to detail. He broke down complex techniques into simple cues that helped me improve my form throughout the session. His feedback was always constructive and celebrated every bit of progress.

I highly recommend Luis for anyone looking to improve their Olympic Weightlifting technique , whether a beginner or advanced his passion for his athletes will make the session very valuable.

Been training here for the past 6 months, I honestly can say I am in the best shape of my life thanks to my trainer/ coach Luis , I have lost 42 lbs and can lift more weight than ever before. My mile time went from 9 minutes to just below 7 min mile. It is a great open space with tons of free weights. I highly recommend you give them a try. Awesome community of people everyone is welcoming and supportive. It really is the best part of my day. They also have a nice outdoor workout area too.

I have been working out at ESTLR since April 2023 and it has been really life-changing. I had previously been doing some weight training on my own but was struggling to stick with any sort of exercise/movement routine longer-term. My therapist was actually the person that suggested I try some sort of group fitness classes. Before coming to ESTLR, the only crossfit experience I had was a single class about ten years prior. They are great about warming people up for class, providing a lot of scaling options for all ability levels, demonstrating all the movements and providing individualized feedback. The coaches are all very solid. In addition to the normal daily workouts, Luis teaches twice weekly “weightlifting for crossfit” classes that cover more detailed technique for the olympic lifts utilized in crossfit (the Clean & Jerk and the Snatch) which have been super helpful.

I have never been really “into” fitness, but after going 3-5x a week for the last 18+ months, I can safely say this is the best shape I have ever been in, and I think more crucially, it’s the first time I have ever enjoyed any sort of exercise/movement or felt remotely athletic. The community at the gym is welcoming, humorous, and supportive, and it’s very LGBTQ+ friendly. Even as a total beginner I felt very encouraged not just by the coaches, but by the other people in the classes, and am excited that I continue to make progress.

Eli is great! 👍 I appreciate that he pays attention to my physical needs, always offering adaptations when necessary, but never in a way that feels like I’m taking the easy way out. At the same time, he knows how to push me just enough to get better without overdoing it. I always feel encouraged and supported in class.

Luis is an AMAZING Coach. This is a cool gym with a friendly staff! The owner was cool too, felt like a home and not a gym!

Been training here for about 6 months . Excellent environment for training . Never made so many friends at a gym. Solid coaching and programming never been so strong just wanted to give them a shout out for all the support they have given me. If your into it Olympic weightlifting or CrossFit this the best spot in downtown.
