Coach Ramiro cares about every person that comes to the gym and genuinely wants to help everyone reach their goals! I am truly satisfied with the process of this gym and the results I have had. Everyone I have interacted with has been kind, welcoming, and friendly. Furthermore, the nutrition help is great too! The owners are so helpful with yummy recipes and nutrition tips. I am grateful to have adopted a healthy lifestyle and healthy habits thanks to Coach Ramiro and everyone at Abba Fitness!

I began training with Coach Ramiro @ Abba Fitness back in April 2021 and he is the Best Personal Trainer in Houston. I was in the worst shape of my life coming out of being locked down at home as a result of the pandemic. I researched personal trainers and decided to give Abba Fitness a call. We scheduled a one on one training session where he made me feel comfortable getting back into the gym and after that consistently trained for the next 10 weeks. Over those weeks, Coach Ramiro helped me through not only training, but also the nutrition aspects needed to make the transformation I was looking for. He got me through the mental walls that came with trying to change so much so fast. In 10 weeks, I went from 208 to 189 pounds / 25.4% to 18.3% body fat while maintaining muscle mass as best I could and am very pleased with my transformation results.Now, my morning work out is part of daily routine and the more I work out with Coach Ramiro on a regular basis he is introducing me to more functional lifting techniques with different exercises I was unfamiliar with. Coach Ramiro is helping me continue with a healthy lifestyle and pushes me during each training session to become better than the time before.I highly recommend training with Abba Fitness. Coach Ramiro has the knowledge and drive to help his clients reach their goals.

Abba fitness was the right decision I have ever done to better my health. They work with you and motivate you to reach your goals. I never thought that I could ever gain strength and muscle, I would go to regular gyms and I would get so discourage specially with no guidance. Ramiro and Eli are great trainers. They not only help you exercise they help you eat healthy. Being diabetic it has helped me control my numbers. I do appreciate what Ramiro and Eli has done to help me be better and healthier. I do recommend Abba fitness, you can always go and work out a couple of days and see for yourself!

I have never had consistency with working out until I joined Abba fitness. Coach Ramiro is inspirational, extremely knowledgeable, and has motivated me to change my lifestyle. Every workout is intense, but I always feel great afterwards. I highly recommend for anyone struggling to get back into a workout routine!

Abba Fitness has a great atmosphere, great people, and a great coach. Coach Ramiro allows us to work at our own pace while motivating us to go the extra mile. Not only does he guide you through the workout, but he also provides nutricional guidance. Very happy with the progress I have made and I am very happy to be part of such an amazing gym!

Coach Ramiro is very attentive to his clients and extremely motivating and professional in his communication. I have worked with him exclusively on weight loss, eating healthy and staying satisfied, all while training for big endurance events. Coach Ramiro has shared a wealth of information with me regarding menu planning, fantastic and filling recipes that work for the whole family, and been like a personal cheerleader for me the entire time. In just a few short weeks, my body fat percentage has dropped, skeletal muscle mass has increased, and my photos each week of the progress tell the rest of the amazing transformation. Ramiro is top notch, and I highly recommend him to anyone wanting to improve their fitness or health goals.

ABBA Fitness has been my home away from home since 2015. Even after I left Houston and returned this year, I knew that I would return to ABBA to continue on my fitness journey. Coach Ramiro and Coach Eli are so motivating and encouraging. I love the energy and gym community. Every day is a new and great workout! I am the strongest I have ever been in so many ways from ABBA :)

Abba Fitness is PHENOMENAL!!! The atmosphere, vibe, and workout I had on my first day was beyond what I expected. The gym is spacious, the people are so welcoming and encouraging, and Coach Ramiro and his wife Eli are just the BEST at what they do!!! I loved it so much on my first day that both my boyfriend and I had to join and start our new journey to a better and healthier life. I was shocked because I had paid for memberships at random gyms and never felt that vibe, never pushed my myself, and trainers were not the right fit for me. Which we eventually stopped going. Here, we have changed so much and just short amount of time. From learning how to properly work out, learning healthy and delicious recipes, and staying motivated and positive. All this THANKS TO COACH RAMIRO!! I love the passion he has for what he does! He keeps us accountable not only with his application, but also checking in with us and having one-on-one to see how we’re doing. There are moments when a workout is hard and then there he comes smiling, dancing, cheering us on to finish strong. I LOVE IT!! I have never had that before at other gyms and especially never left drenched in sweat. Why because when I went I didn’t push myself and the few times I had a trainer they either screamed and got me out the workout mind set or just left me and trusted that I was giving my all when I wasn’t. Now Im drenched everyday, I have a trainer that pushes me in a positive way, and holds me accountable! I have truly found my Forever Gym! If you’re looking for a gym that has a trainer that cares about you, will send you recipes, will work everybody body part, and is willing to put the time into you if you are ready.... then I’d say contact Coach Ramiro! Trust me you will not be disappointed!

Love ABBA Fitness!! I’ve been attending here for nearly 2 years and have been very impressed with the high energy and 1:1 attention from Coach Ramiro! He’s always around to correct bad form and goes over and above to fine-tune the workouts to address the specific needs of everyone in the gym. As an avid runner, I definitely appreciate the runner-specific advice that he offers! Besides that, I have not only improved my running endurance since starting with ABBA Fitness, I’ve also lost > 20lbs!I highly recommend ABBA Fitness to help you reach for fitness goals. You won’t be disappointed.

I started going to ABBA fitness thanks to a friend who has been a member for 5 years. She encouraged me to come with her and try out a class. I pretty much signed up the same day because I loved it so much. Now my boyfriend and I go every day to get our 1 hour workout in. It goes by super fast and Coach Ramiro and Eli are amazing! They are the kindest people youll ever meet. If you are looking for a challenging workout that youll never get tired of, give ABBA Fitness a try. You wont regret it!

I Love the energy and motivation that ABBA Fitness gives. You just have to arrive and Ramiro (Trainer) will do the rest, and your body and mind will thank you for it. I’ve encountered people of all ages from 14 to 70, ranging from people with no fitness experience to daily athletes. It has improved my mindset, body, and lifestyle.

I am new to ABBA about a week now, but I instantly get a good vibe from the owner / Coach Ramiro and his wife Eli. I interact with clients everyday and like to think I have a really good judge of ones character and motives. I see Ramiro as very genuine, and passionate about helping others.I have tried multiple gyms in the area looking for the right gym and I think I have found it. ABBA is NOT CrossFit , it’s not intimidating, and Ramiro is a pretty cool cat. His passion and knowledge for fitness and living a healthy lifestyle is off the charts. I look forward even excited to seeing how this place is going to change my life by this time next year. If your looking for a gym I suggest coming and at least talking to Coach and see for yourself the positive vibe this place has!!

A couple of friends had recommended this gym. I was disappointed to hear that the owner terminated my friend’s membership due to a conflict with an ex relationship. Seems a bit petty and to be honest completely unprofessional. Wouldn’t bother giving my money to an individual that runs his business based on personal issues of other members.

Beware. The owners of this place are very unprofessional and childish. They will let you go as a customer if another member doesn’t like you. I thought this was a serious business where people came to work out but clearly that is not the case. The owners ended a client’s membership due to someone else’s personal issues. I do not recommend this place to anyone.

I go here for my one-on-one sessions with my trainer. I like it because my trainer, Jose, comes up with creative ways to use the space for every session. Parking can be a pain if a class is going on, so make sure you park where you wont get towed. As the weather is getting warmer however, it is hard to get a good workout in w/out feeling dizzy due to the heat. Fans & an open garage door only help so much. This gym would be so much better if it had even minimal a/c.

Great family orientated workout facility. The owner and trainer Ramiro is a great instructor and motivator that pushes you to your highest physical ability to reach your goals. The hours of operation work great around my busy work schedule. I attend the boot camp 4 times a week and have managed to loose 8lbs. of fat while keeping the muscle that I have in just two and half weeks. I love it and will recommend to any and everyone that wants to get in shape and see great physical results.I also like the fact that the trainer is a professional nutritionist with unlimited knowledge. He will help and guide you in putting the correct diet and supplements in your body. 10 out of 10 for me!
