My boyfriend & I have been looking and trying out several gyms before committing to one. We tried EOS , LVAC , 24 Hour Fitness , Lifetime Fitness , etc. None of those gyms made us want to actually sign up and buy memberships.
We found Yak's Fitness through Yelp , tried out the free day pass and was immediately drawn on how although it's smaller than the other gyms it has all the equipment we need and the facility itself is very clean & well maintained.
The owner (Chris) will sit down with you and help you find the right membership that works for you. Prices are competitive with other gyms & what I also love about this place is that there are no annual fees , hidden fees or any of that "fine print" stuff. Don't need that extra stress. You just pay for your membership on a month to month basis here.
No matter what time we came in , it was never too crowded that you would have to wait to use a machine but there is still the right amount of people to feel motivated to workout. I'm glad we found the right gym for us :)
