This gym has experienced explosive growth in the last several years. In its current state it is quite overcrowded -- especially during peak hours (i.e., 4 pm - 7 pm). On the up side, the equipment is in great shape, there's plenty of it, and they are adding space. As for the atmosphere, I find it adequately conducive to a good workout. There aren't too many distractions and I'm used to ignoring the social types and the din of TV and music. In my opinion, the place is acceptable. It's cheap and the hours are pretty good. It's no black-iron gym, but it's not Curves either.
