I have been going to South Reno Athletic Club for about 2 years now. The space is large so it never…read morefeels crowded. There are different areas to work out in depending what you want to do so I tend to stick to some of the same areas. I really like the Body Pump classes. All the ladies are great instructors and it makes lifting more fun with the music. And it is also difficult and get for muscle endurance! They recently added Yoga which is a nice addition for a gym to not have to pay extra from the membership or go to a separate place to get Yoga classes.

Shout out to Hyrox Power/Body Pump classes with Rio!…read more The class is well led and organized! Rio cares about the material taugh at this class and makes it fun for all. Whenever, a trainee has a challenge during an exercise she is not afraid to give a modification! Everytime, we (class) feel the coming for more next class!

I figured it was time for an update of my Fitness Connection experience. I don't really deal with…read morevery much staff, except Dawaina (sorry, no idea how to spell), but whoever put her at the front desk in the mornings...great choice. She is super professional, greets everyone with a smile and is really helpful. Actually, when I first joined I had several negative interactions with staff (to include a Supervisor), so I have mostly avoided FC Staff. Lately though, my experience has been more positive. I come to many of the Zumba classes with Minette, Sarah and Joy. All are high energy and really fun. I also recently tried the new Hyrox Complete class and loved it.

The only thing that bothers me is that I didn't signed up earlier! Where can I even start? Amazing…read morelocation, always squeaky clean, top of the art equipment, showers with towels and shampoos and lockers, rest area, a good variety of fuel for body (such as recover drinks and pre/post workout snacks). And if you reading my review and thinking to yourself "but crossfit is not for everyone, it's too hard and you need to be in shape", let me assure you to disregard that thought and trust double edge to guide you thru your journey to fitness. They will assess you and help you to get you to the best shape of your life! Rome didn't built in one day. Which brings me to the most important section of this review, the coaches. The coaches are probably the most important part of doing crossfit the right and safe way and the fun way! I'm training only 3 months and the amount of knowledge I acquired is absolutely a gold mine (personal thanks to Joaquin, Jacob and Derek). They listen, guide you, literally making you a better athlete, and on the way you become a better version of yourself; fit, sharp both body and mind. This is my honest review, I love this gym and the environment, and if you looking to better yourself and start taking control of your life and fitness, double edge fitness is the place to start!

CrossFit has always been intimidating for me so I never went. I'm just not that coordinated with…read morethese activities (box jumps, pull-ups, cleans). Today I was invited to check it out so I stepped out of my comfort zone and said yes. Of course it was their recovery day/beginner workout but I did it. Kris was so nice, she kindly corrected my form on some movements without making me feel like a total embarrassment. Plus, it's a 2 minute walk from my work so it makes it easy to drop in for a class. I may or may not go again but now I'm glad to say I've been to the most popular CrossFit gym in Reno. I usually stick to running, yoga, swimming, cycling, walking, and lifting. But this is super cool and VERY CLEAN!

Very good gym has everything you need but there was nothing to wipe down the machines with. I came…read morein at 4:30pm on Sunday I saw the only person working there leave before I walked in that's not a problem but having absolutely nothing to wipe down the machines is just lazy every single disposable sanitation wipes was empty. If there is nothing to clean the machines the chances of getting a staph infection increase significantly. Please have either towels for the spay bottles or restock the sanitation wipes before leaving.

The staff is hot or miss whether or not they look up from their phone to greet you. The trainers…read moreare great at greeting members, they want their Crunch1KickOffs. The women's locker room is disgusting! I doubt it's cleaned more than 3x a week. Even then, it's not cleaned well. Toilet seat covers have been removed from the locker rooms completely. Equipment sits broken for days if not weeks when it breaks. There are spray bottles and paper towels everywhere near the machines and freew eights to clean up before/after your equipment usage. The tanning beds are permanently stained. I doubt they are ever wiped down. The massage machines are amazing when they work. It seems one or the other is always broken. The red light bed is filthy! I doubt the mattress is ever lifted to clean all the hair, food, lint, etc that builds up. It's obvious people only wipe before use (maybe). The ceiling fan doesn't work above the cardio machines. The spin room has no fans or ventilation. This place has lots of room, lots of equipment, but it is so filthy and run down at the same time.

As a parent, I am extremely disturbed by what my 13-year-old daughter experienced during her visit…read moreto UFC Gym Reno. She attended one class with a friend who is a member. During that visit, one of the coaches, Javi, made comments that were completely inappropriate for an adult in a position of trust. He told my daughter she "fights like a ghetto Black girl," which is an unacceptable and offensive remark to make to any child. He then had my 13-year-old daughter call me on the phone. During that interaction, he asked her to show him my social media pictures and told her he wanted me to have his babies. I have never met this man in my life. When I gave him no attention, he reportedly told my daughter, "Tell her never mind. She looks like she's an attention-seeking mother." I cannot understand why an adult coach would involve a minor in a personal conversation about her mother or make comments like these to a child. Coaches are supposed to mentor, encourage, and create a safe environment not put children in the middle of inappropriate personal interactions. I sincerely hope UFC Gym Reno takes this complaint seriously and investigates what happened. Parents should be able to trust that their children are in a safe, respectful, and professional environment.

The Peppermill is our preferred hotel visiting Reno as I really like their fitness center. It is…read morepretty spacious to start off, well-maintained, and has all of the amenities I expect in a hotel gym. They keep it open late at night and open at 4 a.m. for the visits well before check-out time. There is a sauna, steam rooms for men & women. I have not used them but they get busy as I see good foot traffic. One neat thing that I have not done but guests are able to is that even though you have checked out, you can still use the fitness center & shower in the locker rooms before heading out.

More equipment than I thought- I get it's for everyone- but for younger children was a bit different.. Glad to know, and happy to visit! Off to the salon!
