We agreed to be charged $20 for September 2025 for putting this on hold. We were told we could not use their facilities for that month, September, but could resume at any time without further charges. We then decided to cancel after six months and informed them. Another $20 charge soon appeared on our credit card statement. Assuming this was an inadvert error, we followed up by contacting them by phone. We had been told when we put this on hold that canceling would not incur further chardes. We ended up calling numerous times, talking with their personnel including the manager at the Riverpoint office, Sean. We were told frequently he was "out of the office". We emailed, also, but he did not respond. Sean was very personable when we enrolled. In fact, no one ever got back to us about being charged $40 for both last September and after we canceled and not being able to use their facilities We only requested a $20 reimbursement for the second month we could not use their facilities. That's such a simple matter to resolve. Better Business Bureau was not an alternative since this corporation does not belong to it. We had no alternative but to resort to calling Sports and Wellness' regional office in Denver. The Denver office took all our information on our inability to resolve this and our attempts at talking with the ABQ office and were told they would relay all of this to Sean, who would get back to us. He never responded to us after the regional office's contact nor did they. Finally, we took this to the Attorney General's Office of Consumer Affairs of our concerns and the attempts to resolve this overcharge. first with their Albuquerque office, which then recommended filing with the state's AG. They have not responded to the AG's office. We've been told that this company has a very low rating. The AG's Consumer Affairs in Santa Fe will attempt once again to pursue this overcharge and for consumers inability to use facilities while charging for it. So, consumers should consider all these reviews. As a note, the AG's Consumer Affairs office recommend contacting them for such issues and will tract and act on these. Hopefully, their office can determine if these complaints are widespread or local.

The Coors & Central Men's locker room, so I have heard from several members, was just a constant dodging of guys taking pictures of you naked and undressing, or coming out of the shower. I live on the Eastside and have been going there since the 1st year that they opened. I have never been photographed that I know of, naked in the locker rooms at Winrock, in all these years. After a couple of years of friendly members always telling me that that the South Westside location had a superior steam and sauna, I decided to check it out, with caution. I was warned by a few guys that fights often breakout in the locker rooms because there are so many members filming other guys coming in and out of the showers, undressing and stripping. I am like, you have to be kidding here, man. I asked these members, if it is so good over there, why do you come to Winrock? They all said the same thing, basically... that they will drive more than 30 minutes for a suckier steam and sauna, rather than get shot, get punched, or get stabbed by someone in the locker room. This is no BS, I have heard it so many time since they opened that location. I honestly thought these guys were feeding me BS, and screwing with me. Since I have only seen this one time at Winrock, I figured it has to be the same at the other location. Boy, was I wrong!! Holy moly man, I dodged 4 camera guys while I was naked in the last week at that location. I am not going back there, no matter how good the steam and sauna are. From what I hear, It just seems to be getting worse and worse at that location. I hear that they place No Picture Signs directly on the mirrors, and they just get ripped off. I had to verbally tell a 2 guys to delete the damn pictures!! One was respectful, and said sorry. The other one.... Let's just say...... Class Action Lawsuit? A third one was a little buffed guy that was live filming. I was coming out of the showers, I saw the setup. I asked him if was filming, before a stepped across naked. He said yes, sorry, and pulled his phone off the ledge. The 4th one, the guy was taking pics in the mirror at the sinks, which reflects perfect back at the locker area that I was at. I asked if he got me in the pic, he said no. It was close. I did not dare ask to see the pictures as he looked pretty serious. As far as I can see, there are never any employees in that locker roomr, or the wet area on Coors & Central. These places seem never to be policied, at least in the evenings that I went. This is a problem gym...... I asked if anyone has reported these picture takers, a couple of them said yes, but the problem is that staff does not care, or is just simply restricted to what corporate enforces. It is a policy, but it is not enforced. One guy told me that he almost fought another guy that had a tripod setup in the locker room, but that the guy started reaching in his bag for something. Needless to say, he hauled ass the hell out of there without reporting it. So why in one location are you dodging land mines, and my location.... you are not?? lol. I will leave that up to Chuze find out. All I can say is that, we are in Albuquerque. If an agressive lawyer can sue McDonalds for millions, for the coffee being too hot, and win, I am all in for the class action lawsuit of a violation of privacy due to Chuze not enforcing the policy. I have spent too much time already on this, but if Chuze is listening. You probably want to fix this before someone does actually get shot on that side of town, or a lawyer gets word of just how bad it is there. At my location, we have the mirrors framed, and they sit up higher, like above the waist. At that SW location, the mirrors are wall to wall, and sit pretty much at waist level or below. It is the perfect mirror for a picture, if you want a waist up body picture. Another thing you could do is frost the mirrors, which I have heard from another member, that you have done before in other locations 2. Steam rooms in all locations are constantly occupied with members wearing full pants and shoes. Since the gym opened in Albuquerque, (Winrock), I have only seen one time where members wearing shoes and pants were asked to leave the steam. I believe that was Jill who enforced that. I have been in the wet area not 100s of times, but 1,000s of times!! 3. No water fountains at 2 locations in the wet area. Sucks to not have water in these areas while, you sweat like a pig. Pros - Great rates, good amenities for the most part. Clean machines, good machines. Bad ass movie theater cardio, dope low light, little semi private weight rooms! Awesome massage chairs and recovery rooms. Pros - Great rates, good amenities, Clean machines, good machines. Bad ass movie theater cardio, dope low light, little semi private weight rooms!

No matter your fitness level, you'll be treated with respect, encouragement, and a solid plan to get you where you want to be. This isn't just a gym--it's a place where real transformations happen. I've been part of the Shred program, working with my trainer CJ, and let me tell you--CJ does not let me phone it in! Every workout is designed to challenge me, push my limits, and get real results. Thanks to CJ's relentless focus on form, accountability, and keeping me motivated, I've lost weight, gained muscle mass, and built a confidence I didn't have before. It's tough, it's intense, but it's exactly what I needed to break through my plateaus. If you're ready to stop making excuses and start seeing results, Evolv Strong is the place to be. Between the expert trainers, like CJ, and programs like Shred that deliver real progress, you'll find a community that lifts you up and pushes you forward.

First off, the price starts at only $9/month so pretty much anyone can afford to come here. And for an extra $20/ fee you can get the access to their regular sauna, infrared sauna, steam room, massage room, and so many other neat extras. This gym is fully loaded with luxuries? And it's brand new only 2 weeks old! It has a grass area, and tons and tons of strength and cardio equipment. They have a kids play area if you have little ones, a movie theater, yeah I said that, a movie theater (never seen that at a gym before), they have classes, yoga, a juice bar with calorie counter juices and smoothies, and even a picketball court!! The front desk staff were friendly and informative about the gym, and it was very clean. I feel like I need to switch my gym membership! But likely I'll be getting a second membership here because these guys aren't nationwide I don't think, and I tend to travel a lot.

    Because ZUMBA! I mean, do you need another reason?…read more My family in the midwest would disown me, that's how bad I was, hopping on the ice rink after, oh, 20 years in the desert. The McDermott Athletic Center offers what appears to be a regulation-sized rink, well maintained, with bench risers for spectators and heart-slobbery pop rock (think Gin Blossoms) on the speakers for teens who really don't have much to do in Rio Rancho besides flirt on ice. It's sweet, it really is, and such a law-abiding way to pass the time. My daughter also learned how to skate on this ice, she's eight, and I had a good time, even if I didn't represent my tribe very well. Obviously, this Center staffs a team of skate instructors and hosts team play on the regular. We visited for a birthday party, checking on pricing, a group of up to 10 kids, rentals, pizza and soda included appears to be a great deal. Moreover, the facility has a sizable weight room, good batting cages, a basketball court and gymnasium, and... wait for it... ZUMBA. That's right, you're going.
