I love this gym for what it is, a community based organization that provides many services to…read morelocals and summer residents. I don't expect it to have lots of amenities as it's a YMCA. But 1. To discuss is the view. I don't know of any other gyms anywhere that you can be on the treadmill and look at a harbor and boats moving in and out. It makes your workout so much more motivating and relaxed! You can also see the Rockland breakwater. Other things to love: -it's not crowded. At all. There are several elderly people who come in each morning to also workout and they give me such motivation also. The Rockport YMCA is a bit more of a scene and mostly younger people (under 40-50, my scale is high because it's Maine!). -it never smells like a gym. Not sure how they do that. -easy parking and very easy to walk to downtown Rockland from the y Cons -not as many classes as the Rockport YMCA. However, this means that the classroom space is usually available if you want a quiet place to do weights. To sum up, if I am doing my own workout, I go to the Rockland YMCA. If I want to do classes, I go to the Rockport YMCA. The Rockland y is such a gem and I'm so thankful it's in our community.

I cannot say enough wonderful things about CycleBar! I had never taken a cycling class in my life…read moreprior to joining CycleBar, but signed up for a "first ride for $15" deal they had on their website. When I signed up for the promotion, I was feeling super defeated and discouraged after cancelling a less-than-impressive/reluctantly used gym membership and felt like I lost my drive to exercise. I was thrilled with my CycleBar experience and hooked after my first class! The staff is super nice and motivating! I find myself at CycleBar 4+ times per week! I've tried nearly everything workout-wise and could never get myself into a routine - but I've found a routine - and a class - that I look forward to attending each time!

What a great place - full of fun and interesting instructors and kick-ass workouts. You can pretty…read moremuch choose your own playlist by examining the music each instructor will be playing for their class (they advertise well in advance, and some have "themes" - like country or Britney Spears Dance-off!). The crowd is 95% female, but don't let that dissuade you if you aren't - it's a very welcoming group of students (and teachers). I felt like I fit in right away and am glad to add my yang to the yin. If you don't know anything about cycling (like me, at first), they will go over how to set up your bike. And, if you forget, they will more than happily go over it with you the next (or next, or next) time. You will get a great workout, listen to some awesome music and be in a community full of friendly people. What more could you want? Only drawback is that classes fill up QUICKLY, so you may have to reserve well in advance - and they do have a penalty if you don't "unreserve" within a set amount of time (I think 10 hours, and it definitely isn't enough time as a lot can happen within 10 hours). But that's the only negative in a vast ocean of positives.

It has three tennis courts for some indoor tennis fun and two racquetball courts that one can get their competitive cardio going. The price points are definitely much higher than you find downtown in Portland but I think that is what makes this place great ... if you are paying a little more, then you dont have to neccesarily battle the sardine cans at some of the other gyms or sift through the meat heads that are lifting and taking up all the free weights. The locker room is immaculate and clean with multiple shower options to use before you scoot to work in the morning. They also offer body pump classes and even have some tanning beds to feel good about yourself. If you are full time student, you can also ask about discounts here.

She is a creative and inspiring aerobics teacher and uses just the right about of encouragement to get us to do our best. The gym is on the old side and seems a little rump sprung. However, it has a large aerobics room with mirrors all around, a weight room downstairs and more weight training equipment upstairs. They have a yoga studio and offer several different types of yoga - there is something for everyone. Kids can play and be kept safe in a secure play room while their parent works out.

Clean, decent equipment. Very nice employees. Kinda sleepy feeling. Could use a bit of a revamp…read more Super cool outdoor area. Not a lot of mirrors so form is sometimes hard to perfect. My biggest gripe is the way they recently put the benches and weight racks. It makes no sense and really makes it hard to get and put away weights and also theres way less benches now.

I was serious about going in regularly but ended up just blocking their number and email, they spam the h*ll out of you to the point that I'm definitely not going to give them more of my time. Hopefully there is a studio in the area that doesn't harass everyone who gives them their information!
