| - This is my gym, and I think it is pretty good.
- Spin classes are pretty great, but there are a couple of instructors who annoy me or I don't like their style of instructoion. Whatever, that's expected.
- Trainers are mostly OK. I do go to one that I like, but it took some time for me to warm up to him. I had a previous trainer that had to drop me because he was taking on more responsibilities, but I really liked him and hated having to change trainers.
- The training staff seems to have no real boss or coordinator, so when i was originally signing up for a trainer, the person signing me up pick one for me and that was that. I just had to show up and hope we would figure out who each other were. That happened again when I had to change trainers. If you ever have any questions about billing or other things, I am not sure who you would ask. Your own trainer might be a good option, but it is tough because they are always scheduled for appointments and you don't want to take up your own work out time. This whole system is seems unorganized.
- As far as training goes... they really try to sell you on things like setting up a nutrition plan and them outlining workouts you can do on your off days. That has never happened for me. I doubt if they actually do that, and if they do I am sure you have to ask your trainer to do it. Something tells me they wouldn't like to do it because its more work for them without any "extra" money.
- The place is big an facilities are nice. It can get busy but I really like going in the mornings which is never that crowded. Morning spin is rarely full.
- The pool seems small, but I don't swim.
- The price is right, but I hear canceling is a bitch (took them 2 months to cancel my roommate).
- Meh, the meatheads dont bother me much. You'll always have that... but I still feel comfortable in every area of the gym, even the free weight section that is usually meathead central.
- No opinion on the staff. The older woman who is at the front desk in the mornings has always been nice an helpful. In the morning apparently they have faith in everyone to scan themselves in... but the evenings, for some reason you need to hand over your keys, and if you want to sign up for a class you have to ask them to do. Its a bit ridiculous and creates bottleneck...especially if someone has a question or needs more help with something.
-they are indeed very corporate, and that bothers me a little.
