| - This gym is old school. I wish this gym was located a lot closer to my home. This 24 Hour Fitness has everything that I need for a perfect workout. The gym is equipped with 4 flat benches, 2 incline benches, 2 shoulder press benches, 2 power racks, 3 smith machines, old school Hammer equipment, a couple of leg press machines, hack squat machines, and enough Nautilus machines that would make Arthur Jones proud. The weights is a mix of steel plates and coated steel plates. Both will get the job done. It's the all steel plates that I love. I'm not a huge fan of the octagonal plates, though. This gym has a lot of treadmills, cycles, ellipticals, stair-monsters, steppers, recumbent bikes, and cross ramp machines. This gym is also stacked with a lot of the older functional equipment that you can't find at the newer and bigger gyms. The older equipment was originally designed for bodybuilders back in the day and puts your body in the right position. This also helps place the tension where it should be and that's the muscle you're focusing on. This gym is quiet, which is a huge plus. Even at 5:00 PM, I'm able to do supersets or giant sets. If I have one issue, it's the area where the dumbbell and benches are located. This area is very congested and the benches are too close to each other. I feel like I'm going to hit someone when I'm doing side laterals or dumbbell flys. Best way for me to remedy this issue is to just stick to barbell work. I'm sure that I will be back. I hope it's sooner than later.
