. "This gym is not your usual big and fancy name brand gym; it's better. Sure, it doesn't have an olympic-sized pool, basketball courts, racquetball and squash courts, a whirlpool, five sauna rooms, huge shower areas and changing rooms, and a smoothie bar. No, Fitness Factory offers only the essentials plus a little extra: weight lifting machines, free weights, treadmills, ellipticals, bicycles, a rock climbing wall, small changing rooms with lockers, protein bars and drinks for sale at the front desk, and nice staff.\n\nYou won't be waiting in line to use any of the machines even during the busiest times of the day (e.g., lunch, late afternoon). Actually, I've only seen probably 12 people max in the gym. Granted I haven't gone during the weekend yet, so that estimate will probably be a little greater. How the gym manages to minimize wait times is they pack plenty of machines inside. Because of this, however, navigating around all the machines might require a little balance and coordination (extra caution if you are doing a leg day!).\n\nNow, the people here are not there to loiter or show off. They are there to actually work out and focus on themselves. No shouting, grunting, groaning, nor moaning here (unless you are doing some way serious lifting...or you pulled a muscle or something). So no need to feel self-conscious. Do whatever you want, as long as you don't hurt yourself, you respect others, you put your weight back, and you clean up after yourself.\n\nPricing is not bad. For new members, the annual membership is $350/year, and they offer a 24/7 All-Access Pass that is an additional $50/year. You can check out their website for more information regarding pricing. They also offer personal training, which you can also check out on your website."^^ . . "2014-08-15T00:00:00"^^ . "4"^^ . "13"^^ . . "8"^^ . "3"^^ .
