That said, when my sister came to visit our family from Florida, she took me to the local Reading PA Anytime Fitness gym and needless to say, I was very very impressed. Not only were the facilities top-notch, the manager Troy was extremely gracious and helpful in helping me set up a short term membership and a tour of the facilities. Now when I visit my family in the Readin PA area, not only do I have awesome food to look forward to, I also have this awesome gym to look forward to and burn off some of my moms delicious cooking. Seriously, if you're in the area and gym hunting, go here and your hunt is over.

This is what every gym should be. Fantastic customer service and a clean facility. The price for…read morethe 6 days we were here was only $20. I was most impressed by how well their staff takes care of this gym which in return the clients do so as well. There is nothing out of order. All the weights are racked. In the week I was visiting, I saw the staff wipe down with polish the lockers, sweeping and mopping the floors, wiping down all equipment, taking out trash, refilling the cleaning wipes, and cleaning the bathrooms. There are two main areas, the weights and cardio machines on one side. There is also a stretching area in the middle and then the powerlifters and crossfit style area on the other side. I went to a class "12 days of Christmas" and it kicked my butt. The instructor was awesome and the class was packed. There are two large fitness rooms upstairs for classes such as spinning and even kickboxing. The ladies locker room is impeccable. I even used their showers one day. They even have a dressing room. Highly recommend! This will be our go to gym when visiting the area.

I selfishly hesitate to write a review because I don't want this gym to get overcrowded... :)…read more Nonetheless, for those looking to join a new gym or switch gyms, Retro is the best choice. I switched to Retro from BZ, having also attended Gold's, LA Fitness, and a few smaller gyms in Berks County in the past (including the colleges' fitness spots). The facility is better all around: it's cleaner, more up-to-date, has better ventilation, better equipment, and better showers/locker rooms. If I'm being picky, the only changes I would make would be to add an additional mirror in the Group X room and raise the placement of toilet paper dispensers in the bathrooms (they're very low if you're tall). But really, that's all I've got by way of constructive criticism! Staff is friendly and they remember your name. (And if you're reading this, Retro staff: Claire is a pseudonym.) To be particular: Janet is an awesome group fitness director and the classes reflect that. I also love that I can sign up for classes online: it guarantees me a spot in class and helps me feel that I cannot skip the gym because I treat it like a scheduled appointment not to be missed. Retro also has a smoothie bar, tanning, and better hours than most of the other gyms in the area. Biggest plus: Retro is far more affordable than just about any other facility. It's friendly to your wallet. My husband and I are both very happy with our decision to switch to Retro.

This has completely turned around since I started working with Dane. His method basically is individual programming based on your goals and restrictions, but he pretty much programs everyone in the gym at once, despite everyone doing different things. It feels like a crossfit gym when you walk in, but everyone is doing a different workout. (and somehow he manages to keep track of everyone in his head which still baffles me) After going there for 6 months (only once a week or so, supplemented by my own workouts when I'm away), I've put an inch on my arms, hit the elusive 3 plate deadlift, and alllmost managed a 225lb bench (soon!). And perhaps the ultimate endorsement - a bro compliment from a random dude at my Brooklyn gym saying that I was "looking big." (I am not a big dude. Also, I am comparatively old.) Anyway, go here. You will be completely destroyed after the first few sessions, but it's worth it.

If you're busy I'll can call back later." She responded with "No, no it's fine. Just give me your number." Oh my god. She continued to ask for my name and number. I finally said "forget it." And hung up. She used caller ID and called me back immediately! I blocked the number. Still have no idea what it costs to join Colonial Fitness and now I don't want to. Try the website you say?
