I attended Dr. C's (Keith Carodine) circuit training class just to see what it was all about and I ended up signing up for a one month membership.

Unfortunately my schedule didn't allow me to continue training there but highly recommend it to anyone!

Here's a wonderful addition to the many other fitness centers in town. Although on the small side,…read morethis coed, clean one is staffed by four-year degree-holding professionals in sports medicine, physical therapy, nutrition, etc. For non-Shands, non-U.F. employees, membership is $19.99 monthly w/ a one-year contract. (Others pay $9.99 monthly as long as they work out a minimum of 12x monthly.) Orthopedics & rehabilitation are specialities here (many insurances are accepted), but this center is for general fitness as well, which is my reason for membership. If you want the assistance of a personal trainer (shared), you'll pay $75 per month; it's nice to be able to select what thirty day periods you want the extra help. There aren't equipment waits here unless you work out early (6:00 AM-ish), but the downer is the limited gym hours on Saturdays & full closure on Sundays. There is a parking garage behind the fitness center; parking is free w/ a validated pass. If you, too, rebel against socioeconomic-exclusive, pretty gyms filled w/ lots of pretty people in brand name workout clothing, this just may be the place for you; it's not the ridiculous $52 monthly you'll pay there for dressed up college kids working part-time to set machines for you. If you aren't in the market for young beauties of both genders, you don't require a pool or more machines than what's necessary to get a good workout, you like to manage your $$$ well, & you just want to get fit or stay fit, this fitness center might be for you. At $19.99 monthly, it's a good deal. If you're still not sure, you can check out the center yourself for free for 7 days.
