Mean Green Gym (3rd Ward)

Coach Cristian was amazing! I was very impressed with his knowledge and caring spirit! Although this was a “class” Coach Cristian addressed individual needs of those that required it. As a new client- he asked what my disabilities or concerns were- and he actually listened- because he adjusted the workout because of what was said! That shows that he listens, and is knowledgeable in his craft - because he made sure a good workout was still accomplished! That was very impressive and appreciated.

Cristian is an exceptional gym instructor! He brings a positive, friendly attitude that boosts morale for the entire class. What truly sets him apart is his commitment to proper form—he provides clear, helpful demonstrations before the workout, and consistently checks in during the exercises to offer corrections and encouragement. A perfect example of his tailored help: during a session with hanging knee raises, he helped me set up a step/support under the bar. This allowed me to tap my toes down to rest in the hanging position, letting me focus on movement control and the drive of my knees on the return. No matter the question, he’s happy to stop and provide a thorough, helpful answer. Thanks to Cristian, our group workouts are always effective and positive!

Today workout was amazing. The first part of the workout was good but the second part caught me off guard. Overall today workout I would love to see more like it. Now Coach Cristian motivated us to finish the workout.

I really enjoy working out with Coach Christian on Fridays. Today was especially great because he did the workout alongside us and still kept a close eye on our form. He brought a lot of positive energy and really helped keep the class focused and on track. Definitely appreciate his dedication and the fun atmosphere he creates!

Cristian has been very helpful with explaining and demonstrating the workouts for class. He provides great advice for recovery outside of the gym as well. Keep up the great work.

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Never miss a Monday! Today’s HIIT class at MeanGreen with Chris was exactly what I needed to start the week strong. The workout was intense, challenging, and left me completely exhausted — in the best way possible. Chris brings great energy and keeps everyone motivated from start to finish. If you’re looking for a solid, no-excuses workout that pushes you to your limits, I highly recommend Mean Green Training Camp. 💪🔥

session was great!!

I’Jrian did a great job in leading the class, he provides great feedback and encouragement!

The coach

Today was a great class. It was challenging and I was motivated. As always I feel like the class has positive vibes and Christian does a great job of pushing me to my limits, correcting my form, but also allows me to listen to my body.

It’s hard to believe I was yesterday years old when I was taught the name of a “bumper plate.” 🤣 Great class! High energy! Dripping sweat. Everyone was very welcoming and friendly for my first official class as a member! Looking forward to more classes and seeing results. <3

The workout was great today.

It's always a vibe with Coach Chuck at 6:15. He is not a loud coach but he guides and pushes you subtly as he cleverly gets you to push yourself to do more. I appreciate the difference in his style, his music is a vibe too.

Cristian did a great job. He explained our workouts well and assisted with techniques too, making sure we got the best out of each movement.

Absolutely LOVED Oshia! The workout was exhausting but so worth it. She was so patient and kind. I LOVE Mean Green Gym!

Samaya is a great coach. It's clear she prepares. She is enthusiastic and provides support during the class. A giant thank you for always filling in.

Christian is great! He’s friendly , attentive and has a great playlist.

All of the coaches at Mean Green really push you and keep you encouraged.

Coach is always motivating us and pushing us to keep on going to be able to reach to our goals 💯

Great workout!

Always a great class when Dewayne coaches! Always very attentive checking everyone’s form and keeps everyone spirits up by encouraging us through the hard workouts !

Christian is a wonderful coach. He is very detailed in explaining the exercises and ensures that our form is correct.

Coach I’Jrian was knowledgeable and attentive. Great total body workout.

Chris did great, but what does it matter, you’re the boss anyway lol. But the workout was great. I’m looking forward to these.

Great workout. Challenging but doable. Cristian's class is always fun and a good burn.

Coach Chuck R., Samaya, and David M are amazing coaches! I like that they will come around to correct form, assist with proper weight selection, provides motivation during class, and they are fun to train with. I really enjoy their classes.

David met me with great energy on my first day of class. He immediately made me feel welcomed and part of the group. He is very nice, patient, encouraging and understanding of any modifications needed. David took the time to explain how to use the equipment and provided frequent guidance and check-ins on my progress during class. Outstanding Coach! Would give him a 10 + rating if I could!

Chuck is my kind of trainer & everyone is super motivating. Feeling grateful to have found this gem of a gym

Amazing strength focused gym in the Houston area! All of the coaches (Chris, Christian, I'Jrian) @ the 3rd Ward location are super knowledgeable, attentive and high energy. In addition to the fun classes, they also offer recovery (sauna, cold plunge & compression) making it a one stop shop for all of your wellness needs. The best part about Mean Green is that you're guaranteed to see RESULTS, whether it is weight loss, body composition, strength, endurance or all of the above!!

Great, gave me motivation and she was checking how I was doing

Very attentive and encouraging. Great energy!

Great workout, Christian is a encourager

Although I tease him a lot, Cristian is a pretty good trainer. He focuses on proper form and technique (which is important to me). And he pushes you to be your best to get maximum results. He's cool!

Cristian was very helpful and kept me motivated throughout my workout

Chris was a phenomenal trainer today. He pushes you and is always motivational. He knows how to get the best from each and every person.

He did excellent. It was my first day at the gym so he gave me a tour and explained each workout thoroughly. During the workout he kept the energy high and continued to walk around and correct technique.

I had a great experience with Cindy, definitely motivated me to keep going and helped me with my form!

Great per usual!

He did a great job! I didn’t watch the clock, the exercises were interesting. Christian was personable and helpful .

As always, class was great. Cristian was thorough in his explanations and demonstrations, he consistently checked in and encouraged us throughout the session, and he offered tips for effective recovery at the end. Overall, he was great and his coaching method is effective.

Amazing. Starting the

The class was just as intense as I remembered! While the cool-down walk wasn’t technically part of the workout, it was a thoughtful way to ease out of the session. A coach’s energy really sets the tone, and yours always makes a big difference- you’re consistently great!

Christian is very motivating and ensures exercises are done with correct form! Looking forward to my next class!

Cindy is attentive to each person in class, gives great demos, motivates when needed, and keeps the pace of the class steady for all levels of speed when training.

I have been looking forward to getting started here and though excited; admittedly also nervous. So 5:30am!!!! OMG!!! I'm just so glad my beginner/intro session to Mean Green and structured program was with Cindy. She answered my questions & is an awesome Coach who has me looking forward to returning when I thought sure I'd want to quit after the 1st set of ropes! *lol*

I just wanted to say—today’s workout completely wiped me out (in the best way)! I’m exhausted, lol, but I feel great. I really appreciated how comfortable and motivated I felt throughout the entire session. You did an awesome job encouraging us and clearly explaining each workout, which made it easier to stay focused and push through. Also, the warm-up and cool-down were a huge plus. It felt so much better easing into the workout instead of jumping straight in. Thank you for putting thought into the flow of the session. You’re doing an amazing job—can’t wait for the next one (once I recover a little 😅)!

Mean green always has the best workouts now about David. He is a great coach when he sees your mind is telling you no he is there to remind you that you can do it! I mean, it probably sounds like “ run like the Beyoncé concert is about to start” or “ I need you to run like the gates about to close at the airport” but it works 😂 thank you!

Today was my first day!! Cristian did a great job explaining the workout and providing extra motivation. He was very engaging and made me feel comfortable!

This was my first class in several years that I have attended. He was very attentive and helpful to me, as there were equipment that I didn't know how to use, and I'm a young Senior. Class was great, and Cristian is a good Coach/Instructor.

Coach Christian is a truly positive and motivating presence. He consistently brings great energy to every session and has a natural ability to see the potential in each person he works with. He doesn’t just guide you through the workout—he pushes you to do your best and helps you believe in what you’re capable of achieving. What really sets him apart is how he goes out of his way to offer thoughtful tips and personalized advice, whether it’s on form, technique, or overall fitness strategy. He’s genuinely invested in your progress and makes every effort to support your goals. Highly recommend working with him if you’re looking for a coach who is both encouraging and committed to helping you improve.

I always like a good combination of muscle building that doubles as cardio.

Coach Chris is an incredible trainer. He constantly checks for proper form and encourages everyone throughout the class.

Always motivating and pushing me to keep going when I feel like stopping. Exactly what I need as I re-start my fitness journey. Awesome trainer!

Loved my class with I’Jrian! Mean Green Gym as a whole creates an environment where I feel comfortable and have grown in my fitness journey. A true family!

Amazing as always!

Natalie was top notch. Very inspiring and motivational. My first time. Most likely not my last.

Today was amazing!!! Great coaching from form to energy! I felt confident in pushing myself and found myself to be stronger than I thought! I love it here! You know, I’m just a girl, but today I WAS A BEAST!!!

Coach Oshia is always great! Pushing me to the limit to lift heavier. Always fun and friendly.

Today was my second day and I was not disappointed. Dewayne was easy to work with and took time to help me and modify my moves as a new member

The best class ever! I learned so much about the mechanics of weight lifting. Can’t wait to be back!

Awesome very helpful

Chris did a really great job with training and pushing the group in the 5:10pm class never missed a Monday.

Will be back 😈😈😈

Great energetic coach that motivates you!!

Cristian was energetic and kept the whole class motivated from start to finish. Not only was he enthusiastic but also very knowledgeable, he explained every move and technique clearly. It was the perfect balance of fun and challenging exercises!

Oshia is fun, exciting and very welcoming. She really encourages you, especially on those last reps. I love her energy and vibe.

It was my first day today! Jabrel and the #GMeanGang (Galleria Mean Team) made me feel very welcomed , helped me stay accountable and pushed through the workout ! I had fun ! I will be back. Thank You

Chris was ill. Christian was very helpful. The class was tough, but Good. Very experienced for me. Christian was knowledgeable, it was a big class, he was attentive. It was just hard to me

Did a great job, full of energy and encouraging

He was very patient & encouraging! He also provided good tips on dealing with cramps! I felt comfortable and was able to go at my own pace.

Great as always! I’m always happy I make it to class when I’m done working out! Music helps as well!

The entire mean green crew are the best hands down!!!….

Great Session! Hard-hitting very rewarding workout! Oshia really pushed me on my first day back after a two months hiatus!

Coach did great. She was very friendly and communicated well. The facilities are very clean and the staff was welcoming and encouraging.

Dewayne was great! I appreciate his coaching of the exercises and motivation

Today's workout was tough but David was very encouraging, giving us tips on how to make it through to the end! Great coach and very personable!

Great class! I enjoy the different stationed exercises.

This morning was a vibe!

Dewayne was super helpful today during the clang and bang session. I was struggling with my power cleans and hang cleans at first, but he was very attentive and gave me the coaching I needed to properly execute them! I rave all the time about the 1-on-1 support I receive at this gym (even when there are 15+ people in the class). It’s amazing.

Oshia is very clear when explaining the exercises and great at motivating everyone. I love working out in her classes!

Awesome

Great workout to end the week! Cristian always brings good energy!

Cristian is great. He does a great job of explaining the exercises and making his way around the gym to ensure everyone is comfortable and has good form. Also, he has great energy all throughout the class.

Cristian provided a very detailed and organized but yet rigid in endurance lesson on today. He pushed all athletes to their max potential but yet allowed grace to each of us when he identified we were in need of it and this assisted all of us to be able to complete the lesson in totality. Overall, I feel that it was a great workout and I look forward to the accomplishments that I can make in the future with this program.

Seamless, fast and precise experience. Couldn’t have asked for anything more. Thank you

Amazing like always, love his class!

Alivia did great as always

Very good coaching. I love when I’m corrected so that I won’t hurt myself and I reach my full potential.

AMAZING! Great way to start my Saturday morning 😁

Motivational

Paige challenged me to lift heavier. Although I was nervous, she told me I could do it, and I did. No regrets! I love it 💖

10/10

David’s an amazing coach!! Always attentive and supportive during the class. Brought a new friend today and he made her feel right at home and ready to join! Always pushes us to do better but just enough and not over the top! Lucky to train under him

Cristian is an excellent coach! He is positive, motivating, and ensures your form is correct! I enjoy his classes immensely!

Nat’s

Christian is motivating and a great PUSH partner!!!

O’s class is always a fun and challenging. She takes the time to demonstrate each exercise, answers questions with a smile, and motivates you to push yourself further!

David is an amazing coach!

Paiges class is a class you dont want to miss. Its very challenging but you walk out knowing you did it.

Coach David Martinez is a dedicated person who is concerned about the physical and mental growth of all of us who train with him. He is always in an excellent and contagious mood. He is always there for us with calls or texts of encouragement. And today class was fantastic

David is a great coach! Brings great energy and very personable.

Coach D is awesome. He keeps is motivated and makes the class fun.

David is the best,🔥He is very professional, excellent coach . He motivates you to give more in each class. Thank you so much David, I love meangreen💚

Today’s class was challenging but with Oshia’s high energy and amazing motivation, I got through it. I truly enjoy the morning workouts with her!

Great

David is an amazing coach! He is always pushing me when working out and is very encouraging! 10/10!

Oshia is awesome!!! She’s encouraging and super friendly! You’ll be sure to get the most of your workout with Oshia and Natalie at the SW gym!

I thoroughly enjoyed today’s class. While I’m not typically a fan of hang cleans, I do appreciate the mental toughness that comes with challenging myself in this way. I would particularly enjoy more strength-focused sessions, especially in the mornings, with an emphasis on weightlifting. One suggestion I have is to incorporate instructional videos on the TVs, demonstrating how to use various machines effectively, particularly regarding hand positioning to target specific muscle groups. Overall, I found the class to be extremely valuable. You addressed all of my questions thoroughly, and I am looking forward to returning to the lab for my next session.

The coach was amazing, supportive and encouraging. I’ll definitely be back!

Coaching at its finest! This coach is incredibly energetic and knowledgeable about leading properly structured workouts.

The workout was challenging as always. The instruction was clear and concise

David was a great coach highly recommend

Class was very engaging and fun. Cristian checked in with me often to make sure I was ok and if I had questions. Everyone was nice and encouraging. I really enjoyed the class.

Natalie was awesome. Great energy. Super sufficient with time. Also took time to acknowledge everyone entering the gym. Was very attentive to anyone that maybe didn’t understand the exercise movement properly.

Great job as always!

The class was absolutely amazing! I started back today after a long hiatus and postpartum recovery, and the coach did everything to ensure my workout was as safe as possible, and checked on me frequently throughout the workout!

Dewayne was great!! I've enjoyed every class this week with him. My fitness has been challenged in the best way. Thank you

I had an excellent session today! Dewayne was professional, knowledgeable and gave a workout for all fitness levels. The exercises were challenging but achievable, and I appreciated the clear guidance and motivation throughout. He ensured we used proper form, which made me feel confident and safe during the workout. Looking forward to more sessions!

The class today was great! Very challenging but at a good pace I could keep up with!

David was amazing!!! He was very positive. He kept checking in with me. I really enjoyed the class.

Great class and very supportive!
