They have one power rack (which some dumba$$ was nice enough to use as part of his full-gym superset, so nobody else got a turn for a while). They have one squat stand (no adjustable hooks nor adjustable safety pins, and a Smith machine. Lots of other machines and cable stuff that I dont tend to use. They have cardio, room for classes, floor work, etc. Also looks like they have vending machines that actually carry recovery drinks too, and not just speed, like most other gyms. Kudos to them for that. All in all, it would be awesome if they had just one more power rack. Squat stands just aren't as safe for heavy lifting. That would push it up to 5 stars for sure. I'd say solid 4 stars on this one, would come back.

Deciding to join Pure Performance Fitness Center & do personal training with Jeremy Ferry has been…read moreone of the best, and most rewarding decisions I have ever made! Seriously...LIFE CHANGING! Jeremy Ferry isn't your standard trainer. He's the type of trainer you go to when you want results and you're ready to put the work in. He listens to your concerns, questions, and goals. He will challenge you, encourage you, support you, and most important, hold you accountable. To put it simply, he does everything he can to empower you to make your goals a reality! The personal training groups are small... usually no more than 6 people during a busy time, and on average about 2-3 people. It's not a cookie cutter workout where everyone does the same thing. He has each person doing their own unique workout, but in a group setting. The workouts are definitely challenging, but you will have fun doing them. The environment is positive and uplifting, and I always leave feeling better than when I came in. The people you work out with become friends. Everyone is incredibly friendly and helpful. We want to see each other succeed! We cheer each other on, celebrate the good times, and support each other during the rough days. This is the first gym I've found where it really does feel like a family. For those who are just looking for a membership at a gym, don't let the size of Pure Performance fool you, it is a clean facility, well maintained, safe, and you're helping support a local business! The doors stay locked, there are cameras in and out of the gym, and the parking lot is lit... so even if there alone I feel completely safe! The space has everything you need to get a complete, full body workout done whether you are wanting to do strength training, cardio, body weight, or mat exercises.

Nor is there a manager or even an acting manager on duty . . . EVER! Everything is handled by "corporate," which translates to, "We don't care about the wellness of our members. We care about numbers and money. Work out at your own discretion . . . and, make sure to have a healthy day!" Customer service is NOT factored into the ESporta Springfield gym. * I could understand if the employees were busy cleaning the restrooms or wiping down equipment, but that's not evident either. The restrooms have a pungent weed and urine stench. So... where are the employees? Hmmm. * I find it oddly interesting that employees (mostly male employees) are in the women's locker rooms during the 5:00--6:00 time. Wouldn't it be better to get the cleaning done at lower volume times when women aren't changing their clothes . . . mid-afternoon maybe? When I speak of employees, please know that I am in NO WAY referring to instructors. The instructors, especially Jill H. (Yoga), Jill C. (Body Works Plus Abs), and Vidya E. (Aqua Fit) are outstanding! Regina, who taught the aqua classes for years, was incredible as well! Although I was not a member at the time, several members sing Regina's praises frequently. Such a loss that she moved on. * The women's sauna has been out of service for at least three months! Word around the gym is that a part has been ordered. Some guests were given a date of January 24th for the sauna to be usable. Others have heard that ESporta has no intention of getting the sauna back into working order. Maybe that promised date of January 24th is correct, but the year wasn't specified as 2025??? * The temperature of the pool is too cold! Complaints have fallen on deaf ears. Employees give members the tired excuse over and over, "We aren't authorized to check the temperature of the pool." If they can't perform a task as simple as that, how can members trust that the chemicals are properly balanced? Just this evening, three members and the instructor walked into the membership area in our bathing suits to ask for assistance. Instead of coming to test the water, the employee claimed that he would "shut the pool down!" Please explain how someone who isn't authorized to check the pool's temperature, has the authority to shut the pool down??? * Come on, ESporta Springfield! You could have a top notch facility without a doubt. In fact, it WAS a top notch facility until the last year. Why not make it YOUR New Year's resolution (for 2025) to get your gym back in shape?

I've been going to Farrell's since October 2011 and have been holding off on reviewing it till I…read morewas sure about what I wanted to write, but I think I'll finally give it a shot. I'm going to tell you what it is, and then why I like it. What is it?: Farrell's isn't your standard gym, and it isn't your standard approach to a fitness plan. The program is a mixture of kickboxing and resistance training. Monday-Wednesday-Friday is kickboxing, and Tuesday-Thursday-Saturday alternates between Upper and Lower body band resistance training. The classes are 45 minutes, and you pick a time to show up 6 days a week. I chose the 5am class, but there are many options. When you first join Farrell's you are enrolling in the 10 week transformation program. Everyone that you see in Farrell's has gone through the 10 week program. This includes the people working behind the counter and all of the instructors. The instructors aren't personal trainers, they are just normal people that have gone through the program. When they aren't instructing, they're working out right next to you. You get a coach that's in your class for the whole 10 weeks to help you stay motivated and answer any questions you may have. There are 3 fitness tests during those 10 weeks. At the end of the 10 weeks the most improved male and female of each 10 week program wins $1,000. Seriously. With your enrollment you get a nutrition/workout manual, boxing gloves, and hand wraps. When I signed up it was about $360 for the 10 week session. What to expect: The first Saturday you will go to Farrell's for orientation. Your body will be measured. This includes body weight, BMI, and dimensions. They will take a before picture (Guys in shorts, ladies in shorts and tank/bikini). You will also do a step test to get your heart rates, and a reach test to check your flexibility. You will see how many situps and pushups you can do in a minute. Finally, you will run 1 mile outside. All new members do this. You will meet your coach and all of the new 10 weekers that will be in your class and going through the program with you. The nutrition program is explained to you, as well as how to put on your wraps and what to expect when you start the workouts. The first couple of weeks of workouts are focused on teaching the new 10 weekers the form and techniques of kickboxing and resistance training. The expectation is that you don't know anything about kickboxing or bands. The pace is slow and there are plenty of FIT members (graduates of the 10 week class that continue the program) that will help you and answer questions. You will be sore, and you will be tired, but everyone picks it up fairly quickly. As the 10 week program progresses, the workouts get more involved. With kickboxing you add in combinations of kicking and punching, aerobic sets in between combos, and 'fun fridays' that really push you. For resistance training you add circuits, drop sets, and super sets. At 5 weeks you take another fitness test to check your progress. The final test is at 10 weeks. There is a completion celebration that weekend when the winners are announced and everyone can appreciate their results. Why I like it: So if you've made it this far, the question is probably "So is this worth my time and money? Does it work?". My answer is unequivocally yes. During my 10 week session, I lost 20.5lbs. I'm much stronger. I shaved 1:30 off my mile time. I got great results, and so did most of the others in my session. I've tried some things in the past, but there are some reasons why I think this worked for me. First, staying motivated while working out is hard for me. This program kept the workouts interesting, and you had a support structure built in to get you to come to class. Everyone there is normal, and you don't have any of the gym rats or super buff people that often intimidate others. The $1,000 prize also provided motivation. I did not win the prize, but I felt that I could, and many others were in the same place. Like I said, everyone had great results. Second, the nutrition program wasn't a 'diet'. The program allowed you to still eat things you liked, but got you thinking about eating smarter. This is honestly where most of my weight loss probably came from. The meal plans and recipes made it easy to do, and even if you don't stick to it 100%, you'll still see some results. Finally, this program is fun. Kickboxing feels great, and the program makes it enjoyable (yes, enjoyable) to wake up at 5am. The way the program is set up you get to know and like the people you work out with. When you miss a day, people comment that they missed you at class. They motivate you to push harder and keep it fun. Farrell's worked great for me, and I've recommended it to everyone I know. If you're looking for something different from the normal gym, try this. I think you'll be pleasantly surprised.
