| - Depending what you're looking for the Fitness Factory will either be your dream gym or your worst nightmare. Think gold's gym circa 1970's pumping iron! If you want an old school, bare bones, no frills lifting experience this is the gym for you. There are tons of weights in great shape, there is never any line, you have the place to yourself, and the gym is open 24 hours, and at a fraction of the price of any other gym in pittsburgh. The raw brick on the walls and peeling paint on the ceiling, as well as the iron everywhere spikes your testosterone up the minute you walk through the doors. Despite the fact that it's a raw meat head gym, everyone I've talked to there was friendly and there is a real sense of community there. But if you don't already know what you're doing, and don't consider yourself a gym rat, you'll probably do better at a different gym, with more guidance, more resources (many people want access to thinks FF lacks, including pool, exercise classes, tons of trainers, basketball court, etc) and a less raw atmosphere. If you want a pile of weights and cardio equipment in excellent condition to use at your leisure in a raw environment, this is your gym!
