Victory Sports is great for people of all training levels; they specialize in geriatric and high…read moreschool training, but it's also a surprisingly comfortable place for the average gym-goer (like me lol) At first I was intimidated by the fact that they requested a one-on-one meeting after signing up for a membership, but it turns out that it was hugely helpful - the co-owner (unfortunately can't remember her name) went into detail about the equipment offered, opportunity for trying new group classes, and also having a personal assessment to better gauge your needs and desires and allowing you personal training (if you want it!) The facility offers a good variety of equipment - the right side is the "grunter side" with lifting equipment and a green turf area for athletic training. The right side is geared towards cardio and machine weight training, with ample space for stretching and free weights as well. There are locker (and shower!) facilities for men and women, and each time I've been, I've been impressed by how clean it is and how often I see someone cleaning or checking up. Overall, a very friendly facility that is as personal as you want/need it to be, with great staff, amenities, and equipment. Highly recommend you at least come in to check it out if you're looking for a gym in the area!

I've tried a few gyms in town and this is by far the best one around! From having top notch…read moreequipment, to a great staff. Everyone is focused on improving themselves and being motivational and kind towards others. I've been working out with Scott Everhart now for almost a year and he is by far the best thing i could have done to physically improve myself! Great trainer who always is willing to go the extra mile for his clients! He wanrted to see first hand what goes into the sport i do to help train me better. So, instead of researching it on the computer he hopped in the truck with us one weekend and spent an entire day (6am-8pm) with my dad and I in New York! If thats not dedication, I don't know what is! I would highly recommend going in and asking for Scott to help you with whatever your goals are physically! He will help you reach and surpass them!!

I was here working out this evening & right at 9pm (closing), the worker turned all of the lights…read moreoff with 2 customers still in the building, myself included. No mention of it being closing time, just lights off, time to go! On my way out, I asked him, "Do you have somewhere to be?" & that he "shouldn't turn the lights out with customers still inside." His response- "It's 9 o'clock." Which I responded, "Are you the owner?" & he responded "Yes." If this is the case, that the OWNER doesn't care about his customer's experience, I will for sure be taking my business elsewhere. I'm not sure where he was taught that his schedule getting out of work was more important than the paying customer's experience. As somebody who has worked in customer service my entire adult life (not to mention at this same gym 7 years ago), that's a foreign concept to me. As a manager or GM, if I found out my employees were putting themselves above the customers in this way, they'd be written up or let go. My advice? Do better. The BARE MINIMUM is you wait to close until everyone is gone. & if it gets to be 5-10mins after, you politely let the customers know you are closed & need to start closing. Customer Service 101, Day 1. If management, or (apparently) ownership encourages this type of customer service, it's no wonder places like Crunch Fitness & Victory Sports have taken what looks to be most of the business from East Coast.

Wayyyy too expensive considering the lack of amenities-- that being said, there's an abundance of…read moretreadmills and dumbells!! Basically, go with the Y instead. It costs only $5 more per month and offers a variety of activities and (free) courses; take advantage of the pools, rock climbing walls, yoga sessions, basketball and volleyball courts etc. It has much more of a community feel to it, to boot. Plus, I think we can all agree on the fact that Hamilton Plaza -- for some reason or another -- has become a rather depressing spot nowadays...am I right, or am I right?

I have been to YMCAs for 60 years, starting in Summit and Morristown NJ, Hartford Cleveland Chicago…read moreSan Jose and Now, State College. I cannot speak to the current condition of all the others, but the State College Y is easily in the best material condition of any Y in my life. Everything seems to have been refurbished or replaced recently, no broken down anything, no roof leaks, no broken tiles or pavement. .is this really a Y? They just finished redoing the locker rooms, new everything as far as I can tell. The Therapy pool is a balmy 90F, which is great for a recent Miami transplant, and the lap pool is a not too shabby 80F. Pickleball seems to have taken over the basketball courts but that is the way of things now i guess. All the resistance and exercise equipment are there, maybe not the best but very functional...and helpful staff nearby. It's nice to what was old is now new.

I've seen better YMCAs, but I have also seen much, much worse. The cardio equipment is up to date…read moreand plentiful, the Nautilus machines are in good repair and diverse. The free weights, exercise balls, gym space, and other random equipment is both plentiful and good quality. The pool is indoors only and warmer than I like, but I'm in the minority in enjoying a cold-ish pool. The only thing lacking is a nice, separate free weights room, but that really isn't important to me. Oh, and did I mention that it has a rock climbing wall? Not too shabby!
