Ultimate Body Studios

This is a great program! It's not a typical gym that you pay your monthly fee for and come and go as you like. It's a commitment and an investment that is worth every penny! I did 20 week program in Plano and the trainers were amazing. My results were great and more important - consistent. As with anything else, you will get from this program what you put into it. If you give 100% you will be amazed with what you are capable of doing. The classes are small and personal and the trainers want everyone to succeed. They make themselves accessible by email/txt for support outside of class and really understand how difficult it is to juggle a consistent fitness program into our busy lives. I loved it! more

I never played sports growing up and as a result, I just never had that drive or competitive spirit that is required to be an athlete, right? That's what I thought - until I was introduced to Ron Lyons Ultimate Body Studios. A few years ago I was working 60+ hours a week with 3 children and a husband on a 12 month job assignment in India. I was exhausted, had gained some weight from poor eating choices and wanted to find some ""me"" time. I was looking at a finding a personal trainer at the Y until someone told me about UBS. Quite honestly, it was kind of an impulse move but I signed the contract, showed up for my first day and only then did I realize what I had gotten myself into. I committed to give them 20 weeks of my life and in return, Ron and his trainers committed to hold me accountable, cheer me on when I thought I couldn't do one more rep and most importantly, remind me that I am worth it. They taught me how adapt healthy eating into my busy work day with proper planning and in return I got stronger physically and mentally and without even realizing it, I became an athlete. I was still working 60+ hours a week but when I wasn't working I was running in local events and cycling with my daughter. Before I knew it I was in Washington DC with my brother running the Army 10 Miler and training for a 100 mile Century ride and I owe it all to Ron Lyons Ultimate Body Studio. On one of my training rides last year I had a crash and serious injury to my arm that required 2 plates and 14 screws to repair. I had 6 months of rigorous PT to regain the use of my arm and I can say, without a shadow of a doubt, that I would not be where I am today - back at Ron Lyons Ultimate Body Studios at 100% - without the confidence I gained through the program. No excuses - just hard work - and quite honestly, the best part of my day! The only thing I would change about my experience at UBS is an opportunity to hang out with my fellow UBS classmates when not dripping with sweat ... I wonder if we would even recognize each other! :) more

Ron Lyons Ultimate Body is not just a gym to workout and be social. It is a gym that holds you accountable and pushes you to the next level. I ask you, name one gym that does this? If you are like me, you cannot come up with one because there is not one. I played college softball and know what it is like to be pushed. However; once college was over, I needed a facility with employees and like members that had same goals as I did?to get results. Not only do the trainers push you to the next level but your classmates do as well. You are held accountable for what you eat (it is NOT a fad diet!) and pushed daily in cardio and weight training classes. Previous posts from the weak hearted said poor things about Ultimate Body. I can tell you that in order to accomplish your goals here, you have to be dedicated. Those who are not willing to put in the effort and are looking for a social scene, go somewhere else. I can speak this as a client AND as a trainer. I had such great success with my 20 week program, I got CERTIFIED at Cooper Institute as a Personal Trainer and I am now training along Ron and Corey living my dream. I challenge you to the 20 week. Are you up for it? more

When I first saw the ""We Get Biggest Loser Results"" sign outside of Ron Lyons Ultimate Body Studios, I remember thinking ""Oh, if only that were true!"" Folks, let me assure you -- it's the absolute truth!! Since joining in January 2010, I've lost 80 pounds in 27 weeks. I've gone from a tight size 18 to a size 8/10. My body fat has dropped from over 40% (gads!) to 13.5%. I am fit, I am toned, and I feel better than I have in years (I'm 44 years old). This gym, this program, and its personal trainer/nutritionist staff (Ron Lyons, Zac, and Corey) are THE BEST! You get a truly comprehensive program here -- cardio, weight training, nutrition counseling, detailed eating plan, a workout partner, and phenomenal personal training -- EVERY SINGLE DAY. The value of this program can't be beat -- and believe me, I've shopped around. I've tried just about everything out there to lose weight and get healthy, and I never succeeded. Ultimate Body was my answer. If you have the desire, if you show up (both mentally and physically), and if you just do what Ron, Zac, and Corey tell you to do, you WILL achieve your goals (and faster than you ever dreamed possible) -- whether that is to lose tons of weight or just become more fit and healthy. Don't waste money on programs that don't work -- transform yourself at Ultimate Body! Pros: A+ personal trainers, nutrition counseling, accountability Cons: I only wish I'd joined sooner! more

I've been part of this program for 8 weeks now and have seen great results. My husband and I joined to lose a few pounds and tone up. To date, I've lost 10 lbs and my husband looks AWESOME! We're very pleased with the program. We have lots of hard work ahead, but I'm looking forward to seeing what's in store! Pros: Healthier living Cons: No afternoon classes...just evening more

This program really works! I have lost 30 pounds in 8 weeks. Once you commit to the program and are ready to work hard, you will see results fast!! Can't wait to see the results when I get to 20 weeks!! No regrets!! Pros: great program & great trainers Cons: you're in for some hard work!! more

I have been attending classes at the Plano location for almost 2 weeks now and I have lost nearly 10lbs during that time! The trainers are so motivational and are really helpful when it comes to the equipment being used. Ron Lyons Ultimate Body Studios has already made a huge dent in my weight loss goals and changed the way I think and feel about working out and eating healthly. This is not a diet, this is a lifestyle change and a really great one at that! I look forward to working out each morning (even if it is at 5:30am) and can't wait to check my results each week! Pros: Motivating Staff, tons of helpful information Cons: Only one bathroom/shower combo if you need it more
