FIT Carrboro

I've been training at FIT Carrboro for several months, under the care and guidance of Kevin Burnett. The gym is very clean with well-maintained equipment. I find the staff and vibe always friendly, welcoming, and supportive. Kevin is a serious, observant trainer with a deep base of knowledge and vast arsenal of exercises. Each session is varied, interesting, and challenging. I always feel safe, am never bored, and am thrilled with my progress. If you want to increase your strength, balance, and overall health, I highly recommend FIT!

FIT Carrboro is amazing! I have been training with Lauren for almost two years now, and she has made a huge difference in my life. I never stuck with strength training before, but she met me where I was, and designed a program to help me get stronger. And, as my needs change, or I have an injury, she is constantly retooling our workouts to fit. Plus, she's always changing things up, so I don't get bored. Lauren is cheerful and funny and has SO much knowledge about body mechanics. I truly never thought I'd look forward to going to the gym, but going to FIT Carrboro is one of my favorite things. The atmosphere is respectful and positive and the trainers are all skilled and encouraging. I SO highly recommend this gym.

I've been doing strength training for years and been fortunate to train with a number of really knowledgable and effective trainers. Lauren is certainly knowledgable and experienced and yet what she brings to my workouts that's exceptional is a wonderful blend of fun and accountability, as well as an approach that ensures I'm getting the maximum benefit from every rep. What most surprises me is that I actually look forward to going to FIT Carrboro even though I know she's going to demand my best and give me no excuse for being complacent. With Lauren's deep knowledge, experience and training, she can also work around body parts that are stressed and still give me a complete workout. Lauren and I regularly reassess my goals and the results I achieve from training with her continue to exceed my expectations. The classes they offer are also interesting and give me one more chance to make self care a priority. Lauren is the total package - fabulous trainer and personality - and I feel very fortunate to be her client!

If you have a fitness goal, want to improve your overall health and do so in a really welcoming environment, FIT is your place. It is hard to target specific muscle groups by just doing cardio (I swim and run), so I needed something more personalized and coached for that. My neck and back have never felt better since training @ FIT with Kevin, and I have overall felt much healthier and stronger.

Looking for a supportive environment to pursue your fitness goals? FIT Carrboro is the place. Not a once-size-fits-all gym, this studio is interested in YOU. Trainers collaborate with you on achieving the flexibility and strength you need to handily accomplish your daily goals in a welcoming physical and mental space. There’s even laughter! I have worked with Anna for almost a year now and am delighted with the experience and the results. Whether you simply want to improve your balance and stamina, or train for a triathlon, I encourage you to try FIT Carrboro.

I’ve been working with Kevin for over a year and cannot recommend FIT enough. Kevin has helped me regain my strength and confidence in the gym, and he came up with unique workouts when I had two ankle injuries over the span of 6 months. I can confidently say that I’m stronger now than I have been in nearly 10 years due to my sessions with Kevin. Love the community at FIT and getting to know the co-owners and other regulars. It’s a small space but this adds to the charm and communal feeling - plus they have no lack of equipment.

TL;DR: FIT Carrboro rocks and I love working out there.

I've been working with Kevin at FIT for a little more than a year and I really enjoy our sessions. I'm shy and not very athletic so I wanted to find a gym that would make me feel comfortable. I also wanted someone who worked well with people who are just starting out! Kevin wipes down all the equipment I use, and the space is kept clean. The other trainers I've met (Gayle and Lauren) are also very friendly.

I am in month 6 of personal training with Kevin Burnett at FIT Carrboro and I am enjoying it as much as one can enjoy a weekly 7am workout! Kevin is very thoughtful and deliberate in ensuring I am pushing myself.

I have worked with Anna Martin for a few months at Fit Carrboro. She’s has been a perfect fit for me. She listens to how I am feeling and prepares workouts that are just right. The next day I know I have had a workout, but I am not so stiff or sore that I can’t move and do the things I need to do. The space is clean and well organized. The entire staff is friendly and helpful. A good place to get a good workout.

I have been working with Gayle for over a year and she is wonderful - knowledgeable, empathetic and motivating. I feel stronger and healthier and it's felt easy to make these positive strides with Gayle as my trainer. If you're looking for a place with trainers who are friendly and great at what they do, FIT Carrboro is for you.

Every member of the FIT Carrboro team is very nice and supremely qualified to fitness train. My experiences with Anna are both fun and challenging, and I'm stronger and more stable than when I started last October. I appreciate her careful attention, and I never feel rushed or judged. Anna carefully explains the muscle groups we are working and expertly demonstrates the movements. She has also talked me through some eating plans. The equipment is always clean and works well. I have also benefited from the stretching and pain reduction specialty class Lauren conducted as well.

FIT Carrboro is the best! I love working out with Kevin every week and can’t believe the gains I’ve made in strength!

Love this studio and staff. They provide just what you need to get an excellent workout. In particular, Kevin has been an amazing trainer who excels at building strength and confidence through a seemingly unlimited diversity of exercises—feels like no two visits are the same. It’s been great for my mental and physical health!

I am so thankful that I found FIT Carrboro and Gayle Silver. I’ve increased my bone density substantially over this past year while adding muscle strength and better balance. Everyone is friendly and welcoming. Highly recommend!

I've seen Lauren for around five years now and can't imagine life without her. I went in with ongoing back pain and recurrent other minor pains those of us in our 40s are prone to. She is so good at working with your goals and any aches and pains you have. She has a ton of anatomy knowledge and as a nurse I enjoy geeking out with her! I've gotten so much stronger and fitter. My body is buff now! I am back to swimming and running, even doing triathlons. Plus she's super funny and great to talk to. My sessions go by quickly. She even adjusted our work outs to fit my schedule and budget when I had to cut back while in nursing school. Lauren and FIT on Main are on an awesome gem in Carrboro.

I have been working with Anna Martin for the past 5 months and it has made a huge difference for me. I had become a bit of a Covid Slug and her bi-weekly sessions have brought back the old flexibility and build back muscle strength. She has a great background in physical training and nutrition and tailors each session, shifting from weights to stretching and back. Great friendly place and easy to get there from work.

FIT on Main has been life-changing for me. With Gayle Silver, I have been able to exercise consistently for the first time in my life. Gayle helps me work around my physical challenges, and I always feel comfortable in the studio. The other folks that work there and the other clients are always friendly, accepting, and fun.

Gayle Silver gets a good sense of your goals & and then challenges you to surpass them. I was experiencing knee pain and she thoughtfully guided me to strengthen and keep moving. I am far stronger than I was before, without knee pain. I look forward to these fun sessions. FIT on Main has a friendly, supportive team & a non-intimidating environment that guides you to become stronger.

I didn't think I could afford personal training, and I wasn't sure I could ever really do it well enough. Now both are possible in this gym and with Anna Martin. I take care of my elderly parents, have a busy full time job and family responsibilities. With COVID, all of it felt harder. I finally went ahead and put myself first -- I'm trying to avoid knee arthroscopy and my hope is that this will be the key. It's already helping. The pain is now manageable -- my hope is to get it down to a 2 or less. Anna is perfect for me and so encouraging. It's also FUN. Who knew? Don't hesitate. FIT will figure out the best person for you and figure out how you can make it work in your budget.

I've been working out with Gayle Silver every week for 11 years - and it's easy to see why: Do you want Strength Training? Do you want Cardio Interval? Do you want Core/Pilates? Gayle does all of that, and she can do it all in one training session, or focus on any one of them; customized to whatever works for you.
