“I’ve lost 50 pounds in three years, but the real change isn’t the scale. I came in after a bad ankle break, insecure and uncomfortable in my own skin. It hasn’t been a straight line. I’ve fallen off track and come back more than once, but Ashley never made me feel judged for it, just kept encouraging me forward towards my goals. After three years, I’m confident, happy, and stronger than I’ve ever been. This place changed more than my body.”

If you want to get started and don't know how, this is it! No judgment or intimidation at OPEX, just good people all working toward their personal health and fitness goals."

  • Getting started is easy. Reach out to schedule a free consultation, where we'll talk about your goals, current fitness level, and what you're looking for in a coach. From there, we'll build a personalized plan that fits your life and set you up with the right coach to guide you every step of the way.

  • Unlike drop-in gyms or generic personal training packages, every OPEX Round Rock client works with a dedicated coach who builds a program around your specific goals, movement patterns, and lifestyle, then adjusts it every month as you progress. We combine strength training, nutrition coaching, recovery, and lifestyle design into one personalized plan.

  • It's small-group personal training. One coach works the floor with a small group at a time, typically 3-6 clients, but everyone is on their own individualized program designed by their dedicated coach. You get hands-on, personal coaching plus the energy of training alongside others.

  • We start with a free consultation to learn about your goals, training history, schedule, and any injuries or limitations. From there, your coach runs a full movement and fitness assessment to build the foundation of your personalized program.

  • Both! If you can't make it to our Round Rock gym, our remote coaching option gives you the same personalized programming, nutrition guidance, and coach accountability, delivered through our CoachRx app with regular check-ins.

  • No. We coach people at every fitness level, from complete beginners to competitive athletes. Your program is designed for where you are today, not where you think you should be.

  • We’re located at 514 E. Palm Valley Blvd., Round Rock, TX 78664. Our gym floor is open Monday–Thursday 5:00–11:00 AM and 4:15–7:45 PM, Friday 5:00–11:00 AM and 4:15–6:30 PM, and Saturday 7:30–11:00 AM. Call (508) 330-2620 or book online to get started.
