This gym is wonderful! It's a women's gym, so women started it and only women are a part of the…read morefamily. I say family but truly what it is. These women really get me motivated to work out, and do things I don't really want to do. But after I do them and the classes I feel so much better and want to do better in my life. Dafne is a wonderful person, shipment of energy and makes a great leader. All of the women that instruct the classes are awesome because they all have a lot of energy and they know how to explain the moves in a way that you get the hang of it. The most important part about the gym, is that there is no judgment. You don't feel like you're being watched, or judged on how you do the moves compared to someone else. The instructors are easy to talk to if you need help or to get the form down to prevent injury. These ladies are looking out for you without embarrassing you. The trainer, Nicolette is great! When I did some training with her, she explained why we are doing the exercises, which really helped me understand why I was doing it! It made me enjoy going to training instead of dreading it.

It's got the basics. Plus the price is right, and it never closes. It has all that i need with No…read moreextreme extras. Of course a pool would be excellent-- but not here. Meet Kyle, he is the main man at the desk, more than willing to give you a tour or a training session! There are 1/2 a dozen treadmills, stationary bikes, olipticals, precores with a few extra special cardio machines; octane and rowers. Not to mention the other 2/3 of the gym with weights. Machines and free weights (all the muscle men too). There is also a large center that's carpeted for stretching, yoga and a few evening a week there is an aerobics class. Extras: Complimentary coffee, child care area (uncertain of the cost) locker rooms with lockers, bathrooms and 3 shower stalls plus a scale. Main gym has mostly mirrors around the permeter; with many flat screen TVs with Direct TV (no Sunday ticket) but the remotes are scattered around the machines to change the channel as you like. They have water fountains, plus sell Hinkely bottled water for one dollar. There is also an assortment of weight-training GNC type products to buy. Did I mention that it's open 24/7? With your key card, it's never too late for a jog. Prices are reasonable too; $50/mon for a 3 mon trail contract or $50 start up fee and $20/mon for a year. There are other options.... But you will need Kyle for that info. Long story short- its a gym. A typical gym but with friendly, personable staff with above average equipment. Fair warning; as any gym it's the most crowded Mon-Wed 5-7 pm, with it tapering off Thur-Sunday at various times.

I dropped in to Fitness America just to use the gym for the day when I was visiting for a wedding…read more I absolutely love this gym. If I lived in Peoria I would definitely be a member. What I particularly love is the "CrossFit" area in the back. It has absolutely everything you need for Olympic lifting (bars, bumper plates) and tons of stuff for the high intensity workouts. It was only 5 bucks to drop in for the day. Wish I had this gym where I live in Kansas I would be there everyday. The manager (maybe owner?) who was working when I went was very nice and welcoming. Five stars!

I look forward to the hugs I get upon entering the gym. I feel like everyone there is cheering for me. I am focused when I'm there. Just try it. Try the one week free trial. You won't be sorry.

The fitness center is like the Nova Corps: It looks pretty and shiny, but once you get inside and…read morelook around you realize it's a bit of a wreck. Situated on the west side of ISU's campus, its exterior is aesthetically pleasing. A lovely flyover of University St. and interesting lines, it's a cool piece of architecture. However, as you get inside you start to get really depressed, and are tacitly encouraged not to ever consider hiring any of ISU's engineering or architecture graduates. For all of its space, the rec is laid out like an erratic 4-year old planned it. Some nautilus equipment is here, other equipment is on the other side of the building. Some aerobic equipment is at the far end of the 1/8-mile track, other equipment is 3 floors below. Too narrow a space with too little ability to organize eqiupment has rendered the workout areas disjunct and too spaced. The electronics (WiFi and the TVs on some of the aerobic machines) are often malfunctioning. The locker rooms were designed and laid out without any forethought or planning: Lockers jamed into 90-degree corners so that users have to stand 5-abreast while changing in a confined space, no ventilation leaving it humid by mid-day, and with the weight room above so that anyone showering or changing feels they are doing so amid the siege of Kabul. For what was supposed to be the pride of ISU, it becomes a craphole of a place upon cursory inspection. To its credit, it is cheap (about $20/month membership for faculty/staff, "included" via fees for enrolled students) and readily accessible albiet with no available parking. Really a testament to a lack of beta testing, forethought, or concern for long term usability, its the only option on-campus, so its monopoly means it can get away with much more than a competitive market; but while architecturally interesting the fitness center doesn't rival the quality or interior aesthetics of even nearby Illinois Weslyan or schools in ISU's weight class.

The rec is probably my favorite place on campus. It is fairly new with a ton of fitness equipment…read more I usually go in the morning to have plenty of choice in my workout. The pool is clean. It has 4 lanes and I have never had to wait to swim. The locker room is open to anyone and there are plenty of lockers inside. The rec has every piece of equipment you would want to use. Cardio machines, free weights, strength training machines, indoor track, rock climbing wall, basketball courts, and fitness classrooms are all here. There is even a Jamba Juice for your post workout. Illinois State has one of the very best facilities for students to work out.

It's so cool that they have a beginner area with several auto-belays and a party room! This gym is perfect for the casual climber, but it also has some crazy V9 routes if that's what you're into. There are weights and hangboards at the back of the gym, as well as showers in the bathrooms if you want to climb on your lunch break. I highly recommend stopping by to check it out. The new holds and textured walls are luxurious if you're used to climbing at an older gym (like me), and the atmosphere is welcoming.

We just had our first visit so I can't really speak to long term care or leagues but we started a trail membership we were so impressed. The place is 90% bouldering walls with a good variety in levels, but there's also some auto belays and a weight training areas. The front desk staff is super friendly, and the whole place is super well kept. The padding looks brand new. We plan to spend a lot of time here in the coming month.

The upstairs balcony overlooks all the courts and includes a kitchen for social gatherings. Downstairs, you have a nice bathroom, sauna, and private work out area--with personal training and development available. The staff is really the muscle of this place. Friendly, accommodating, and pure, unbridled passion for tennis and community, come to mind. Lovely ladies and men. If you're not feeling the vibe or pace of Four Seasons, Gold's, or LA, come to Evergreen Tennis. Not just to play the great game of tennis, but to have fun while working out your mind and body. Update: 1/23/18 I've been working closely with one of the Tennis Pros at the club, Roger. He's a great instructor--with a wealth of knowledge, applicable techniques, and insight to the game. I've made great strides as a beginner, but have a leg-up being a left-hander and 25 years of soccer and basketball experience. Everyone is always friendly at the club. I love coming here!
