    The management team, trainers, and support staff at the South Hill location are exceptionally…read morehelpful and supportive. The YMCA has a remarkable team! Tim To

    PARKING: Not the greatest parking situation. The lot is near…read morecapacity much of the time and it's shared with several businesses. It can get a little hairy during peak times so keep your head on a swivel. FACILITY: The overall space is relatively small and cramped feeling. They've jammed a lot of machines in here which is good for availability, but bad for maneuverability. Tons of new cardio equipment with USB ports, live TV, workouts, and even Netflix. You can create an account to save your personal workouts. Lots of space dedicated to free weights and cross-training areas with chains, pulleys, ropes, monkey bars, kitchen sinks and untapped beer kegs. Lockers rooms are on the small side but nice. Not terribly modern feeling, but clean and functional. Men's locker room has a dry sauna and three semi-private shower stalls. There is one group fitness room, and it seems popular. There are hordes of strangely dressed people in there, slowly handling invisible orbs in perfect unison. Try to avoid eye contact. Free coffee is available in a small sitting area near the front desk. CHILD CARE: The child care is free up to two hours per kid per day. The child care room here is small. Staff are friendly, engaged and competent. Given the space it's probably best for kids 3 and under. The keep the TV off at all times, which is great. Overall I go here because the location is convenient and child care is a must. The child care staff have earned my confidence. The space does feel a bit crowded, but this isn't a huge deal since I just bounce from machine to machine.

    I have worked out with many fine coaches over the years, including while playing college-level…read moresports. But I have *never* encountered anyone with Stephen Lay's blend of knowledge (anatomy, exercises), ability to motivate and inspire, human psychology acumen, etc. Working with him has vastly improved my life, and re-opened doors I thought were closed for good. To take one of several examples, Stephen's analysis of problems in my lower back and R big toe, which had led a couple MDs to advise me not do long runs anymore, and the exercises Stephen proposed to correct them, helped me get back to running in just a couple weeks. Stephen keeps up with the latest in exercise techniques and sports medicine, so you know his information is up-to-the-minute; for those who are into the minutiae, he can recommend great books, articles and web resources to dig deeper. He also knows how to tailor his workouts to every age group, so as to join forces with (rather than wrestle against) Father Time. Plus he is a master massage therapist, so you can warm down after a workout in his capable hands -- or substitute an hour of pure bliss on the massage table, on those days when your body isn't quite up to a workout. In short: Highest possible marks to his Wise Works Fitness and its leader Stephen Lay, as a consummate sports professional, but also as a uniquely fine person, who continues to expand my mind and enrich my life on many levels.

    Highly recommend. In my 60s, soon to be 70, I noticed I was losing upper body strength and whatever…read moretone I once had. My wife found Steve Lay on the Internet. He has been perfect for me because he has built up my body strength. He has been very sensitive to not overworking me, partly because I still think I am in my 30s or 40s and can hit it hard, which he recognized I shouldn't and can't. He is also a very good communicator and teacher (about various muscles and such). I was positively surprised with the quality of his gym and the variety of exercises he runs me through. I actually look forward to working out. Plus, he has provided me the discipline and motivation to keep at it.
