Dr. Coach Layne and his staff are the most knowledgeable strength coaching and programming group in Gainesville. In addition, Dr. Layne is an outstanding teacher who is able to coach/train elites and novices. When I decided to start my sons in weightlifting, I was only going to trust them with the best and that’s Layne Performance.

After nearly a month of starting our 9 year old son at Layne Performance, we have already seen huge gains– in his confidence, comfort in a gym setting, and willingness to push himself physically. He is growing stronger every week, and we couldn’t thank Andrew Layne enough! Our main goal in establishing our son with a professional was to instill in him an interest and appreciation for weightlifting. It’s fair to say that there’s no better place than with Layne Performance. Give it a shot– you won’t regret the experience!

This is a gym for everyone! And ladies, don’t be intimidated, you’ll make a lot of amazing gains in your strength, muscle mass (you won’t get big, don’t worry!), and your overall feelings of empowerment, no matter your age! I’m nearly 60 & have seen my body & attitude change so much for the better in the last 7 months that I’ve been attending classes at Layne Performance! It’s the “Layne Effect”!

Young survivor of multiple strokes. Have worked my way up from total paralysis with numerous Drs of PT, therapists, physicians, etc, and done loads on my own. Andrew is a blessing. His knowhow, experience and absolute dedication to match where I am at the moment has allowed me to make steady progress in things most coaches would have no clue about. Highly recommend Layne Performance and encourage you to try.

I am 70 yrs old and I have been working out with Andrew for 4 years — both before and after he started his own gym. His deep, science-based knowledge plus calm, supportive personality, led me to make remarkable strength progress with absolutely no injuries. I was never an athlete and hated gym. Now I love my workout sessions!
