A great place to workout. Everyone is super nice and encouraging. All of the workouts are scalable to whatever a person can do plus the personal training is top-notch. I started out in terrible shape but slowly began to see progress, and now I like trying to figure out what I can do that previously was unimaginable. I would encourage anyone wanting to make a change in their life to give Momentum a try. I dont think theyd regret it.
