| - Nice gym. Never really busy. Friendly front desk staff. Free parking in an attached garage - no need to walk outside to get to the gym and always spots available. I also liked that you could join online, however the absence of a free trial period was slightly off setting ($18 gust pass).
They have a multi-station cable tower and even though there are only two squat racks and two flat benches, I only end up waiting for what I want maybe twice a month if that. There's a good selection of plate loaded and selectorized machines. The machines are Hoist brand though so you're entire body gets into the movement when doing something as simple as a bicep curl. I found this slightly annoying, but it's growing on me.
A few wish list items would be ez-curl bars (they only have build your own bars), in-between sizes on the dumbbells (e.g., 17.5), and extra 5 lb. plates for the machines. Other than that it is a great gym and I plan to stay here for awhile. They also need to lose the safety cap on the bikes. The cardio bikes here are capped at 142RPM - if you hit that the bike automatically brakes. How can I do HIIT when capped at 142?
The locker rooms are nice: steam room, large keyless lockers, towels, lotion, mouthwash, etc... Each shower has a dry room with hooks attached to it which is nice. There is good water pressure, a light in each shower, and supplied soap, shampoo and conditioner. Getting all 5 of those things to exist all at the same time however is nearly a daily point of aggravation. Just this past week there was only one shower with soap in it and that shower happened to not only be out of shampoo, but the whole shampoo dispenser was missing. And the light happened to be burned out.
