Hannah We came to…read moreFrancois at Fast Twitch approximately 1 year ago frustrated because we wanted a result driven strength and conditioning program for our daughter that was being directed by someone with a educational background and commensurate experience. Our daughter is a athlete with Olympic aspirations. Our first meeting with Francois was very business like and direct. I was impressed with his background and his focus on providing a no nonsense training program for our daughter. Over the many months those feelings have been strongly reinforced. The results have been amazing! She has had a significant decrease in body fat with a notable increase in muscle mass and strength. Not only is she becoming stronger but she is becoming leaner and a much better athlete. I simply couldn't have asked for anymore. If what you want in a athletic trainer is pretender who is filled with anecdotal information ripped from some body building forum off the internet and someone who lacks any significant educational background and client track record then I suggest you look elsewhere. We are proud and confident to have Francois directing our daughter's strength and conditioning program. He is a true professional that sets tangible goals that provide amazing results.

This gym is really growing on me. To put the following review in perspective, I work out 6 days a…read moreweek for 2 hours each day; and I've been a member of elite gyms throughout my life in Atlanta, Miami, and Houston. For me this gym is in a word 'sufficient'. It's not great, it's not terrible... but does the job. It has efficient use if space and offers an effective workout option in an area where there are not many options close by. For me it's about convenience. It's legit open 24 hours, and it's a 10min drive from home. It has just the bare minimum of what I need to have a great workout. I call the equipment here the 'struggle' equipment; everything works but there's like very minor issues with all the equipment (and often only one single option available for most equipment). For example, the stair steppers don't stop completely, the ellipticals don't incline to their full potential, most of the treadmills work most of the time, the cycle bikes don't have a working display to calculate miles or time but the other incline bikes seem to work fine, the long barbells are somewhat rusty on the ends but the hand weights are not, the Smith machines are a bit 'janky' (could be smoother) there is literally one single mobile workout bench, and the one box typically used for box jumps is flimsy (so is the big tire when standing on it for squats), the sand bag that is the weight I use leaks sand on my arms, the accessory equipment especially the rope pulls are old and a little decrepit but usable... everything seems to have been rejected from other gyms but found it's home here. The owner (really nice guy btw) seems to have piece-milled the equipment and adds stuff here and there (so it keeps getting better)...fixes stuff here and there if necessary. Even the front door in which you have to use your fob on to get in is a hit and miss every time... it's a little bit skill and a little bit luck to scan your door barcode to get in and hopefully someone nice is close by to let you in when it does not work (which can suck at 4am). But I do like that I can work out at 4am though, also the music is at least good music/ song selection and you could actually workout here without headphones. Also I do like that there is a stretch area/mat in the back, it's not typically many people back there when I'm there. And the bathroom, although there is only single bathroom for men and one for women... it has always been clean anytime I've used it and has tp. I also like the green patch area which people use for it's purpose and don't just stand on it. The free motion equipment in general is in good condition and there is enough variety to have most stuff I need but lacks some stuff I want, for example would love a glute bridge machine. Anyways, if there was perhaps a larger gym closer or a national brand gym in close proximity it would most certainly give this gym a run for it's money. Speaking of money, the monthly cost is a plus at only like $17 ...people in other reviews complaining about the membership fees have never apparently had to pay for a $75 monthly membership at Lifetime or $55 at La Fitness or $35 at 24 Hour Fitness. You get what you pay for and this gym gives you the bare minimum (no classes, no steam room or pool) for a good workout and i always get a good sweat and I'm glad it's here. Don't forget to wipe down the equipment and every surface you touch, the gym is clean but not sanitized to Covid standards or my OCD standards. At least the gym does offer a lot of spray bottles for sanitizing but do bring your own towel. One quirky thing I noticed here is that there is a car key rack right when you walk in and people actually hang their keys on it; and a open cubby area once you walk in that clearly states the gym is not responsible for stolen items and people still leave their stuff there! Guess I'm just not as trusting of humanity as others who frequent here LOL. Hope this helps. Update 2/25/22: Ask and you shall receive! In my original post just 8 days ago I said " there is enough variety to have most stuff I need but lacks some stuff I want, for example would love a glute bridge machine"... wouldn't you know I walked into gym this morning and voila a booty builder machine. Queue the angels singing! I don't know if a coincidence or bc I mentioned it but either way I'm happy and even updated my original 3 star rating to a 4. Also after nearly 2 months as a member I think I learned the trick to the front door: *use your foot to push it in making sure it is completely closed then use your barcoded fob... Works every time for me now!

Clean equipment and clean bathrooms etc. I don't engage with staff at all really unless I bring a guest and they have to drop their ID at the desk to get in but they're always pretty friendly. The other day (2/16) we did buy an energy drink after checking in and the entire interaction the staff member not only never smiled but I don't think said a single word? Didn't make my experience any worse...but it was a weird and notable experience for us. Might've just been having a bad day so I don't hold it against them. I'm not a body builder by any means so the gym does what I need it to but when I come with someone who works out a lot and with more equipment, they noted there's not a good variety of back machines. My main complaint is about the space between machines for walking. They're juuuuust a bit too small to be appropriate to walk by if someone's using a machine. Idk if they mean for you not to walk between the machines but when I'm coming out from upstairs, I b line to the exit so I have to walk between different machines and if there's someone working out on it, it's too close for comfort. Maybe you're only supposed to walk on the sides like by lockers or the treadmills though. One other thing I would love is if there was a designated stretch zone. Crunch st Pete has the turf in a room where people can do sled pulls etc and then there's a little square of turf outside meant for stretching. I love that because stretching is a big part of my time at the gym and I don't have much space for it if people are upstairs doing HIIT or whatever on the turf. I feel bad for taking up space. Most of the time the AC and temp is good in here but two times now I've come and it's humiddddd. And it's not from being crowded. I also do love the switch to wipes versus paper towels and spray as it's much more efficient!

Saying he "can't just take drop ins on a whim". And the only way he'd let my boyfriend do his Open WOD there is if we joined the box. What?? What's the point of having CrossFit drop ins then? Most all drop ins are on a whim. What if it was Matt Fraser dropping in for the Open? Would he refuse him to or try to make him join? Along with that, his whole tone was very rude. "So are you going to join the box or what?" were his exact words. That was terrible business. Before that we were considering joining this Box but after the way we were treated there, it is a big NO.

I can't say enough great things about Kelly at Pilates Room. Even after many years of teaching…read moreyoga, strength training, and having a background in modern and jazz dance, I have truly learned so much from her. Kelly has an incredible ability to meet you exactly where you are while still challenging you in all the right ways. Her 1:1 reformer sessions are thoughtfully tailored to individual needs, and her group Pilates circuit classes are both energizing and effective. Every session feels purposeful, balanced, and incredibly well-designed. What stands out most is her depth of knowledge and her eye for detail--she cues in a way that helps you connect more deeply to the movement, improving both strength and control. You can feel her extensive background in dance, fitness, and multiple movement disciplines come through in her teaching. Beyond that, she brings such a positive, supportive energy to every session. You leave feeling stronger, more aligned, and inspired. If you're looking for an instructor who is highly skilled, attentive, and genuinely passionate about helping you move better and feel better, Kelly is exceptional. Highly recommend!
