I was so sick of the whole 24 Hour Fitness/Bally's scene. Jam-packed clubs with broken equipment and the only time staff would even smile at you is if they were trying to sell you something else. :( So, I was really glad to find this gym that turned all of that around. The club keeps top of the line equipment in perfect working order both in the weight room and cardio stuido. Membership is limited so it's never too crowded whenever you want to workout, and the staff is great. What really got me results, though, was the private training. For what I'd pay at 24HR for a surly high-school dropout who only wants to sell me supplements, I got Jonathan, an experienced professional who actually is there to make it fun achieving my goals without selling me anything. And I mean it about achieving goals: in less than 6 months, I've lost almost 20% of my body weight, 10 inches off my waist, and packed on muscle. I couldn't be happier.
Pros: Top-of-the-line equipment, great staff, great training
Cons: Parking lot is tight

You know this place is different when you pass through the comfortable lobby and not a meat market to get to the quiet, comfortable locker rooms. Spaced out around the adjoining 5 tennis courts are an excellent workout room, exercise floor, spin room and cardio area. Plenty of classes and friendly, helpful encouraging staff. After a workout, Tastebuds is as close to Cheers as you can get, the food's good, too!
Pros: Ambiance, Location, Staff
Cons: Parking (sometimes)
