Report
Edit in response to VSN:
I wasn't going to write anything but here goes. The "gym" has outdated and mismatched equipment that all seems second hand. They claim to have any type of barbell you could imagine but the owner has no idea what the different types are. There isn't even a deadlift bar. The owner talked to us about plans to reupholster equipment but that never happened. Plus they have a speed bag that is popped and the swivel is super glued so you can't remove it to put a bag up that is not popped. One of the toilets was always broken in the women's locker room. Trainers use outdated information

This is listed as a Health Food store on the internet. It is actually a fitness center. This needs to be corrected.

This place is beautiful! Everything you could want in a gym. 24 hour access with new equipment and during certain periods of the day it's like you have the whole place to yourself. Also, the high school kids that go there don't just go to fool around, they go there and work hard. Great Gym, Great Prices. A+ in my book.
