When my trainer from another gym began working at City Fitness I decided to follow him, and I'm happy that I did! I felt welcomed from the moment that I walked through the doors. EVERYONE is friendly and the entire gym is always so clean! There is always a machine available to workout on whenever I'm ready, no waiting for someone to get off.... The trainers are motivating without being overbearing (which I've experienced at other places) and no matter what your shape, size, or strength is they make you feel good about yourself and your goals! What I love most are the convenient hours, I'm a night person so the gym staying open until 1am is wonderful for me!!

I was touring gyms in the area and was very interested in City Fitness- still am- but really turned off by my experience there. My spouse and I went together after work to tour the gym. We didn't work out, but checked out the facility to see if it has what we are interested. Afterwards, we got sat down and pressured into committing to a membership because it was $70 off of the $99 joining fee if we signed that day. We had no way of knowing this, and we hadn't even tried any fitness classes, so I wasn't quite ready to sign at that moment, even with the discount. We are also touring other facilities, so I didn't want to sign for one before trying others. Well, the fitness sales manager really kept pushing, telling us we had two weeks to try and return it if we decided we didn't like the gym, did we not understand the discount we were getting, that we would be wasting our money to join later, that we should buy now because we could still try other gyms because we won't like one better than City Fitness, etc. We are really interested in kickboxing and wanted to rule out a kickboxing only gym before fully committing to City Fitness- I think this is reasonable. We tried to be firm and tell the manager we didn't mind having to pay the full enrollment fee if and when we decided to join and he rolled his eyes, clearly got a bit more hostile, and said "I can guarantee I will never see you back here ever again" and that we are just choosing to neglect our own health and bodies by not joining the gym. WOAH- it's not that we didn't want to join the gym or neglect our healths, we just didn't appreciate the insanely hard sell after saying we wanted to wait several times over. I mean, we only toured the facility, we didn't even work out there yet, why would we commit right then?! To be honest, in the beginning of his spiel before he got more aggressive, I was actually getting excited and ready to ask my spouse if he wanted to just take the plunge and join, but this manager, Evan, really made me uncomfortable and turned me off from wanting to join. The hard sell may work for some, but insulting potential customers and pushing for a sale after my spouse and I politely said we would like to wait over five times is too much. It's a nice facility with great amenities and I'd like to go back, but this experience really soured my perception in a really negative way. If we do go back, I will be avoiding Evan at all costs and hope another employee can do our sale. After reading other reviews, this seems to be the common trend. NO THANKS! I'm letting all of my friends know so they can avoid avoid avoid.

True story: I love this gym so much that when I was looking for a new apartment, my main requirement was to be walking distance from City Fitness! It's such a great gym. It really feels like family. It's one of the rare gyms that everyone actually says hello to each other. They have something for everyone no matter what your level or preference is. Great Thrive program and awesome classes! I go to Rich's boot camps religiously. You can also get amazing workouts from from Brian D. and Alfonzo's boot camps. Intense cardio from Carl and Angela's spin. This gym really has something for everyone! Oh, and you can get a post-workout recovery smoothie after the work out from Angie! Shout out to JP and Joyce too. Love them :)

Started their free 7 day trial a few days ago. The price point for a monthly membership is a bit steep, but perhaps I'm just used to the other "no frills" gyms - and frankly, that's all I needed here too. Thus far however I always judge a gym by two things - how busy it feels, options of equipment, cleanliness / organization. 1) It's not crowded. That could just be a function of when I go ( early AM ), but I rarely if ever have to wait for any equipment. I don't mind a "busy" gym, but if its busy then it should have enough of EVERYTHING so that I don't have to wait. 2) Options. If you're into classes - they have classes. If you're into elliptical, they have them too ( and stair climbers, etc ). For me, they have two different weight areas - one with machines and "lighter" free weights ( up to 60 lbs or so ) and another area of free weights with free weight benches, dumbbells, etc. A large well equipped stretching area rounds it out for me - foam rollers, stretching bands, and stretching equipment. 3) The weights are where they belong. Plates and dumbbells are not strewn about. The locker rooms seem clean. Simple stuff, but it's good to go. Downside? I know its a local chain - but man does it feel "cool corp" with everyone in black tops and bottoms ( funny, because that's what I wear too... but I don't work there ). And I seem to often walk in to overhearing employee's of varying levels complaining about things.

Always clean with great friendly staff. I've been going for almost two weeks now and all the equipment I have used had been working fine. Their open workout area is a great touch to a normal weight lifting gym. Overall this place is great.
