I dropped by Downtown Sports and Wellness while visiting Albuquerque and staying at a local hotel,…read moreand it was a great gym to get an "on-the-road" workout in. With my room key, I got a discount day pass rate (around $12) with an easy sign-in process. This place has a lot of equipment, including barbells, squat racks, free weights, rowers, cardio equipment, and standard weight machines. It's still missing some things, but for a drop-in, it's completely fine. There weren't a ton of people there, even on a Saturday morning, so I didn't have to wait for anything. One thing I really appreciated about this gym was all the workout "supplements" they had in vending machines. Whether you opt for a natural pre-workout powder, or one that has 10,000X your daily recommended doses of caffeine and BCAA's; and whether you are looking for vegan protein powder, or more traditional whey, they have a supplement for everyone (all in single servings). So, if you forget to bring your pre- or post- workout drinks, they probably have you covered. The locker rooms were fairly large and clean. You do not have to bring your own lock. My two critiques would be their fairly limited hours, especially on weekends, and the difficulty in finding it (it's downstairs in a sort of underground mall which is half locked-up). Also, it might be a bit limited as a normal gym with a regular membership. Otherwise, it's a great place to drop in while on the road for a workout.

Looking for a gym with a pool. Called the Downtown Genesis location (S&W will be missed) as their…read morewebsite does not provide membership fees/cost, etc. An automatic red flag . The nice person that answered the call notified me that only their supervisor/manager could provide the membership cost and amenities information, and requested my name and phone number for a call back. I declined. Genesis, you just lost my interest and my business. Transparency is a requirement in the modern world. Sketchy business models are just that, sketchy.

Every single damn workout, usually about 45 minutes in, there's a moment when the dam breaks. I'm…read moredoing some kind of military pushup, or weighted lunge, or band-assisted pull-up, when the droplets start hitting the floor, and man, can I make it rain -- in a bad way. My bandana is completely soaked with head sweat and cannot hold another bead, so I drip on the floor, on the equipment, everywhere (and yes, I try my best to clean up the mess with disinfectant wipes). True, I run super warm-blooded and I've always been a hot mess, but if you're looking for a brother who can testify, I'm here to spread the Republiq gospel: they'll work ya. More bullet points: + This gym is as diverse as it gets. Male and female coaches, dynamic equipment and machines, diverse ethnicities, ages, body types, class schedules, regimens. + Fair price. Before we signed up for Republiq, we scoped out every other option, and I mean everything: Crossfit, Defined, Orangetheory, Sports & Wellness, Chuze, Spenga, some Zumba-bullsh*t. Republiq rates are competitive, even cheap. + Locally owned, run by a no-nonsense couple (Reece and Noelle Killebrew) who seriously care for their clients. + Showers and lockers + Better music than my former gym (UFC), but generally club-centric, which helps an older guy like me know what the kids are listening to nowdays. Also, good to know that Eminem is still repping the same tired, angry shtick he was repping twenty years ago. + No kids classes or care, bummer. On occasion we have to bring our kiddo in, she keeps out of the way, staff looks the other way. + My bandana particularly bleeds for the SWEAT classes, these circuit, boot campy, cardio hardio killer classes that are always morphing and changing. There are also kicking and boxing classes, plenty of weights and machines, and personal trainers. + Best: Very few meatheads/gym rats, no drama, no clique-y vibes, just in-and-out, work hard, move on. This is critical to me, as I've come to accept that whether I wanna workout or not, regular fitness is a fact of life, for the rest of my life. If I'm gonna be there erryday erryday erryday, I'm there to sweat. My social life requires other routines, like beer.

After a few months using Sports and Wellness's Riverpoint's facilities, we put our membership on…read morehold and were charged were charged $20 and a small monthly fee by this sports club until we resumed it. 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.
