This is definitely the last real hardcore gym in the Lehigh Valley!

I felt so comfortable in the gym. I joined. I'm doing the $35 a month no commitment with no cancellation fees. They don't have Cancellation fees. Only reason I'm doing that Is. I'm not a guy that's into fitness and I need to workout an old Injury. They have everything you need for a total body workout and beyond.

Good community and training, but not worth it…read more 1. Dirty Gym. Originally canceled because I ended up with several nasty skin outbreaks. Mats are barely wiped down at the end of each day and even with reasonable precautions, it's clear the culture of the gym doesn't do enough to promote good hygiene and warning folks to stay away if they've got active outbreaks. I know a few guys who stopped coming to the gym for this reason. 2. Automatic payment system. If you decide to check this place out, I'd highly recommend going month to month or paying by check for several months at a time. I canceled my membership 2 years ago at this point, and every six months I've had to dispute a recurring transaction on my credit card. I've checked in with Finishers several times and they've confirmed that I canceled my membership and the charges are invalid, but I've lost money and time I can't get back. At the point where I've got to get a new CC now just to get it to stop. TLDR: good place to visit, jiujitsu is a lot of fun, just maybe find another place to train.

They are treated like family and taken care of like family as well. The knowledge they have learned has far exceeded my expectations. I highly recommended this establishment. See for yourself for a free 1st class. Also the cleanest place you'll find. They take the cleanliness very serous. They also enforce strict instructions on body etiquette. Keeping clean is a must!!!

I rarely attended, and did not work out hard when I did. Sure, Nak Muay is not inexpensive. However, you are receiving the equivalent of a training session with every class. The instructors are personable, and high level competitors and/or professional fighters. The people in class next to you grow to be friends given that you are training together multiple times per week. This gym is also woman-friendly! That doesn't mean it has purple frilly mats. That means you will find other women in just about every class, and present as instructors, they are also ranked within the World Kickboxing Association. Lastly, the kids program is highly recommended. In just 6 months, our young niece saw a boost in confidence that translated to better grades at school and improved behavior thanks to the discipline that martial arts affords.

The trainers are exceptionally knowledgeable, especially the owner, Greg. With his too many to list degrees and certifications, he has an answer to every problem you can come up with. The quality of instruction is exceptional here. Do not be intimidated, they are extremely patient, regardless of your level of fitness. Beginners (like my scrawny self) will feel completely welcome and soon be breathing fire like the rest of the group. Some gyms make you drink the CoolAid, this one is much more down to earth, interested only in results for YOUR goals.

I really enjoy being a member of this gym. It's a well equipped gym with three squat racks and all…read morethe equipment I need to do my daily workouts. There are two floors--the second floor consists of the locker rooms, elliptical, and treadmills. The main floor has the weight machines and free weights. There is also a large open room where classes are held. I'm usually there at late hours when there is no class in session, so I'm able to use that space for my own workouts. If there is a class going on, there's also a smaller sized open area on the second level where you can do your own thing. They also offer towel service, free wifi (fast enough that I can watch Netflix while on the treadmill), and the front desk staff are always friendly and welcoming. The only complaints I have are: limited hours on the weekends (they close at 7pm), no stair master, and no one wipes down the equipment after use.

When I called to speak about the cancellation collection notice, I was hung up on. Don't do it. There are a lot of other options

Similar to a small YMCA gym. Better than a planet fitness although much smaller. I go after work at…read morethe hospital around 4-6pm and it's never crowded. Gym is clean and equipment is a bit older but maintained well. Locker rooms are clean. Women's has two showers and have shampoo, conditioner, hair gel and lotion. Plenty of lockers with included locks and keys. Weights: Two power cages/squat racks and a smith machine. Ample plates from 2.5lb-45lb. About 7 adjustable benches (no rack, just the bench)and dumbbells up to 100 lbs or so. A cable machine with about 8 stations and lots of attachments. The cable machine has numbers, not weight equivalents. Assisted or unassisted pull-up/dip station. Variety of kettlebells up to about 50lbs. Other equipment: 3 plyo boxes up up to 24" tall. There's a large cushioned bench, probably 8'x8', that's great for core work, rather than laying on the floor. Resistance bands and station to attach them at various heights. TRX straps on one of the power cages. A handful of medicine balls. Cardio: About 8 treadmills, 5 ellipticals, 5 stationary bikes and 2 rowing machines. Some of the stationary bikes are a little wonky. Machines: Circuit of about 15 well-maintained machines including bench press, overhead press, row, leg press, bicep curl, ab/back extension and more. Classes: 2-3 per day at noon and around 4. Some yoga, some fitness. Amenities: TVs, controllable from the cardio equipment. Nice view of the highway and the woods beyond. Water, powerade and bottled protein drinks available at reasonable prices. It's $24.99/mo or free for LVHN staff. It's for general fitness. Not a luxe club or a powerlifting gym. Some people are pretty fit, some not fit at all, most people are average. If I could change things, I would add more free weights and take out some of the machines. I hardly ever see anyone on the machines. Will add pics if I can get any without people. Will update if I get more accurate counts on the equipment.
