REVIEWS & TESTIMONIALS

Choosing to train with Alverez is the BEST decision and investment that you will make for yourself.

Alverez is hands down the best trainer! He listens and pays attention to your goals. He will create a plan according to your needs. And he works with your schedule.

Alverez is so dedicated to helping people achieve their fitness goals. I have trained with Alverez for over 3 years and I will continue to choose Alverez as my trainer because I have seen all the changes that my body has made.

But I am not only stronger physically...I am also mentally stronger thanks to the training we go through at The SAVAGE LANDS! 💪 ~ Google Reviews

This is my home away from home. Being new to the area, I was a bit nervous & hesitant to try out a new place. But I am so happy I have found Coach Alverez and this amazing facility.

He is very encouraging while challenging you also. He’s very social with each of us and his personality is unmatched. The BEST! As soon as you start your training, everyone is welcoming, supportive and we just become family under one roof.

It’s an incredible journey to be in and I highly recommend it here. I absolutely love the feeling of feeling so accomplished & stronger as I walk out of my sessions.

I started training with Coach Alverez in 2022 during a really tough time in my life. Honestly, I didn’t even know what I was looking for when I walked in I just knew I needed to get my body moving. DRXVE quickly turned into my safe place.

Coach pushes me until I feel like I can’t go anymore… and then says, “Okay, give me another set.” 

What makes him different is how he really takes the time to get to know you your mindset, your limits, your potential and gives you exactly what you need in each session.

He pushes me, supports me, and helps me grow in ways I never thought I could.  Super grateful for the energy and care he brings to every single session. ~ DRXVE Google Reviews

I am an ER nurse who subscribes to the no BS mentality and I can honestly say I 100% LOVE training with Alverez. It has been over 5 years since I started showing up to weekly lifting sessions, EAT Packs, and conditioning challenges (“The Machine”…IYKYK!).

In that time, I have lost a large amount of weight and hit those typical pant size goals, but most importantly, I have GAINED. I have GAINED strength, speed/agility, mental clarity, self-esteem, focus, a sense of accomplishment, and an irreplaceable community of fellow savages who push themselves just as hard as I do!

Above everything else, Alverez is consistent. He is fully present and is genuinely happy to see you and give you that strong high-five. He is able to engage with each individual client and meet them where they are in that moment. He also has a unique ability to tell you how it is and to stop making excuses and get to work! It is so motivating and is exactly what we are all looking for …ACCOUNTABILITY and direction.

He genuinely cares. He is loud, the music is loud, and so is the entire squad! Training at the facility has increased my physical strength to push, pull, bend, squat…and all of the other moves us nurses do over and over again during our 12-hr shifts. CPR compressions have also gotten a lot easier to perform during codes.

The stress relief I experience during my sessions fills my personal cup, which in turn, allows me to pour positivity and empathy into my patients during some of the worst experiences of their lives. I am more focused and attentive and able to listen and engage with everyone I come in contact with at work.

I definitely have FOMO when I’m in the ER and see him posting stories of the sessions!!! It’s hard not to miss your sessions when you can’t make it!

Thank you Alverez for making lifting and training a way of life and something to look forward to every single day!  ~ Google Reviews

I joined DRXVE and it has been the best decision I could have made for myself.

Coach Alverez is such a motivational coach and he pushes you to be a stronger and better version of yourself.

There are some days where I show up not feeling my strongest self after a long day at work but his positive energy will encourage you to push through and work harder.

I always leave feeling accomplished, this is a place where I can really escape from the real world and be myself. I have met some amazing people here who have the same goal and we can all push each other.

l've been training at DRXVE for a while now, and I can confidently say it's one of the best fitness experiences I've had. The facility is clean, well-equipped, and has a great atmosphere that keeps you motivated.

But what truly sets this gym apart is the incredible coaching. Coach Alverez is not only highly knowledgeable but also genuinely invested in each member's progress. He takes the time to ensure we use proper form, push us to improve while respecting our limits, and always bring a positive and encouraging energy to every session.

Whether you're a beginner or experienced, you'll feel supported and challenged in the best way possible. If you're looking for a gym where you'll see real progress and feel part of a great community, I highly recommend DRXVE!  ~ Google Reviews

DRXVE, The Savage Lands and Alverez are truly one of a kind.

I have trained with him since 2018 and I have had the opportunity see the progression of DRXVE and the facility since that time.

My life is BUSY like most working moms. In 2018, I made a decision to MAKE TIME for myself. I remember nervously shaking the hand of this stranger prior to my first session, never thinking I’d be where I am today.

I’ve made so much progress in my lifts and abilities. But most of all, I have found a mental balance in my life. I have gained confidence and set boundaries.

Who knew a personal training decision would affect my whole life! I’m still working on my fitness goals and I know I’ll reach them with the guidance of such a knowledgeable and invested coach! ~ Google Reviews

I have been training for a couple years now and I say, without hesitation, that with Alverez and the DRXVE Squad, my quality life has been restored and amplified!

I have been a nurse 12 years and started having debilitating back pain 3 years ago. I would sit in my car after work for up to an hour mustering the courage to just get out because it was so painful. I would have to physically lift my leg in and out of my car with my arms due pain/weakness.  I had six herniated discs and was overweight at 31. I thought that was it, that's just how life is going to be.

My friend and coworker convinced me to come train. Immediately everyone  was welcoming and friendly. Alverez assessed where my limitations were and gave me modifications to keep my back safe while still getting the work done. I got "homework" to help strengthen  my weaknesses and gain more mobility. I went from barely making it through a work day to training BEFORE work and feeling great!

We don't just focus on big showy, dramatic numbers on the weights or scales, we do the "dirty work" and train all the supporting muscles so we are balanced for life. I feel like I have gotten a second chance on what my body and mind can do and overcome thanks to the DRXVE method.

I had never zeroed in on nutrition in my life and Alverez gives you tons of resources and education and the apps are interactive and easy to use and you can always get a quick response.

I have never met a more supportive, accepting, FUN group of people! The energy is infectious as soon as you walk in, and there is no competition, all our wins big and small are celebrated!

It's worth the 30-40 minute drive from downtown Houston for me. I encourage anyone looking for that second, third, fourth chance (where ever you are at) to come train with us, you won't regret it! ~ Google Reviews

I was training with Coach Alverez for a while and have nothing but good things to say about him.

He’s awesome, patient, motivating and very understanding. He’s also very flexible and pushes you to reach your best.

I think what I liked the most about training with him is just how motivating he was even when you fell back. He understood that I was a human and made mistakes when I missed a worked out or had a small cheat day. At the same time he also reminded me of my goals and kept me motivated to reach them.

I got married and moved away but if I didn’t I would still be training with him. I recommend Coach Alverez to anyone!!! ~ Google Reviews
