I love 9 round! This is a great concept to add to any fitness routine, especially if you are one…read morethat suffers from being "bored" while working out. So, just like the name states, you have 9 rounds to complete in 30 minutes. Each round is 3 minutes and there is a 30 second "active rest" inbetween rounds. Each round combines cardio, core and strength so you are ensured a total body workout. This is somewhat of a "kickboxing fusion" concept so at a few of the rounds you put your boxing gloves on and go to town on a punching bag! It is actually quite refreshing and a great way to release tension after a long day at work! The stations change every day so you are constantly "tricking" your body which is a great way to see results. You will see a variety of moves like jump roping, squats, burpees, planks, roundhouse kicks, various punches, pushups, dips, etc This is a great place for all fitness levels. The trainers challenge you along the way or they can modify if you have any injuries. Everyone is super nice, the music is fun and the workout is awesome!! Give them a try! This is a very affordable way to get a very personalized workout that will meet all fitness goals!

One word: TRANSFORMATIVE! ....Rockbox has done so much for me. I first started with them for a…read moreshort period in 2017 and then I went back in 2021 and have been there ever since. From my highest weight I am over 50 lbs less today because of their workouts and the meal program that they gave me five years ago. I've been at my goal weight for some time but I still use the skeleton of their meal plan with my own tweaks (to make it keto). This gym is not like the Y where people go but sometimes don't really exercise much. Here you do classes - people modify when they need to , myself included - but you always follow along, you don't stand around and blow it off. The members are all sizes - it's a gym for real people. A basic class is 5 minutes of warm up, about 25 minutes of cardio-kickboxing, about 16 minutes of functional/weight/resistance training, about a 2 minute finisher, and about a 3 minute cooldown. ALL the coaches are great so I never worry about which class I'm attending - I just go when I can. They once in a while coordinate group outings at local restaurants - we even had a big group that went hiking at Crowders Mountain once. You can try a free class or two - they will lend you boxing gloves and you have to bring your own wraps or buy them there for $13 - it's because wraps really do provide shock absorption to your hands when you are punching the bag. I once didn't use them when I forgot them and I was surprised at how it felt without them - you definitely need them. You can purchase Unlimited in which you can go as much as you want, or purchase 8 classes/month, or you can buy a block of classes (I think 10 but I'm not sure?) and use them as you wish, or you can pay per class. I do Unlimited and make it a point to go no less than 15 times a month. If you are a Panthers fan, you'll enjoy that the owner - who is also one of the coaches - is Mike Tolbert, a former player. Mike and the other owner, his wife, Shia (also a coach!), could not be any nicer. I am not a person that ever liked to exercise or liked going to the gym - out of all of the places I've tried, this is the best. Just look at some of my numbers that I included (see pic) to show that I am living proof that this place works - as I mentioned, I used to dislike exercising and I weighed 52 lbs more. I am 54 years old (about to be 55). As you get older, the worry is that you lose muscle. My muscle mass number indicates that I have a good amount of lean mass for my size, my skeletal muscle number shows that I am above average in muscle relative to my weight, and my visceral fat number is 5 which is excellent and indicates that I am at low risk for diabetes and heart disease. ....and just in case you are wondering, I don't work there - I'm just a regular member. Bottom line: give it a try!

But I also want a warm and friendly environment…read morebecause I know myself (just like most of my patients) tend to have low-efficacy workouts if left alone in a gym. This gym provides a family-atmosphere style motivation where both trainers and members encourage each other. It is roughly 1/2 boxing and 1/2 crossfit style exercises. This style of exercise matches what evidence shows to be the most effective at getting and keeping in shape. Highly recommended as long as you are a positive person and interested in high-energy work-outs.

The customer service I've experienced at other gyms has been exponentially better than at this location. I'm personally there just to workout so if it was just once or twice then okay, but I've observed it on multiple occasions. As someone who did a lot of PR/Marketing and knows a lot about customer service, I find it very off-putting, strange, and unprofessional. They're very selective about who they are friendly to, often stand in or leave pads in your way, and at times quite obviously go out of their way to be rude. At every other location I've been to I've made friends with the trainers, they actually want you to do well, and even after I've left the gyms we are friends on social media and chat. The atmosphere at this location in the other hand presents itself as being very emotionally immature and childish.
