Inside they have fitness studios, daycare, lots of cardio and weight machines, free weights, indoor track, and stretching areas. The locker rooms are very large and have plenty of showers.

Classes- They offer a huge variety of cardio (Zumba, spin), weights, and yoga classes which are all taught by passionate fitness leaders. Staff- They are always greeting you and able to answer any questions you may have. I always have a great time getting my workout in thanks to Ames Racquet and Fitness! Tips: Bring your own padlock if you want to use a locker and check with your apartment lease to see if a membership is included in your rent!

If you're a power lifter, this gym is great for you! I'm more casual about going to the gym, so…read morethis place ended up not working out for me. However, most of the staff and the owner are very friendly, and I enjoyed having Cayden as my trainer. The 24-hour access is a nice feature along with the chocolate milk. I did notice a lot of the gym-goers do not wipe down their equipment, which I'm guessing is why the employees put signs everywhere about it. So you might want to wipe down your seat before settling in for a superset. In summary, I had a good experience here, and if I had a friend who was a power lifter, I would refer them to this gym.

Extremely frustrated to the point I'd like to just move away, even though I already have! I went…read morehere due to a friend saying it's great, well it isn't for me. Extremely busy every time I go (sometimes 2, sometimes 6-7), when I started I went to the south main location and that was a mess, 6 squat racks isn't enough and if there's one open people race to it, same with free weights. Started going to the north location and its almost the same way, super busy plus less equipment than south. So on to the contract. For one why does a gym have a contract? I've never been to a gym with a contract, YMCA, anytime, strength shop ect. Why are you giving highschool/ college students contracts? So after not understanding the contract and still signing up (because I thought it would be a nice open gym and I'd stay), let me tell ya it's super hard to get out of it. Even after moving 25 miles away they still won't let me go! YOU HAVE TO MOVE 50 MILES AWAY, you could move all the way to Webster city and still have to come to Ames fitness. Completely stupid! It's so inconvenient for me now having moved away further from Ames and still being locked into this place. So thanks Brett Halverson for denying my request. I will try and let everyone I know not to come to Ames fitness. This gym is my worst nightmare. Do yourself a favor, go to strength shop, planet fitness or just something else.. All have no commitment.
