The energy at this location felt pretty low when I visited. The layout is interesting with a bunch…read moreof separate rooms, almost like a maze of lifting spaces, but once you head downstairs it feels more cramped than creative. The turf area especially felt tight and there was a noticeable smell that made the atmosphere less enjoyable. The equipment quality was decent and the staff were about the same as other Los locations, friendly and easygoing. It seems to attract a mix of casual and serious lifters, which is nice. There is a small posing room but it is basically just a closet with mirrors. The cardio options were pretty limited too. Not a bad gym but definitely not my favorite Los spot. It just felt a little claustrophobic and there are better options in the city for the same price.

I had a great experience dropping into Los Campeones. This gym is HUGE (they have a whole lower…read morelevel that seems even bigger than the main floor), and if you are into "old school" style lifting gyms, you are going to love it here. They have a TON of power and olympic lifting equipment, including squat racks, lifting platforms, many different bars, and bumper plates. They also have a bunch of accessory machines and equipment, although I did not see a GHD. They have fairly good sized bathrooms, and lots of supplements incase you forget yours. Drop-ins are about $20, and parking is pretty easy.

The University of Minnesota Recreation Center offers everything students and faculty could possibly…read moreneed. This was my first visit for the purpose of volunteering at USA Swimming Junior National Championship. Parking can be a challenge for visitors. There is a nearby parking garage and very limited surface spaces. The area around the pool was clean. The building although dated to possibly the 70's is in great condition. The majority of the facility is the competition pool used by the University of Minnesota Swim team. The facility is nicely maintained. However, faculty and students can use the pool. The Olympic size competition pool is 50 meters with movable bulkhead, platform diving and well. The aquatic complex consist of approximately 145,000 gallons of swimming capability. The Long Course pool has eight lanes for competition.. The spectator area is expansive and spans the entire length of both sides of the pool and well. The public locker room area is large and pretty clean. There were two malfunctioning items. Great facility and hope to return for another event in the near future.

Honestly as good as it gets. Literally the best recreational…read morecenter I've seen in my life, I wouldn't even call it a gym because that would be history's biggest understatement. I would go as far to say that their services are better than Sydney's Olympic Park Aquatic Center. The Rec has honestly changed my life for the better. In my experience, the machines have always been clean and plenty to go around for everyone to work on any muscle or work on cardio. It can get a bit crowded at peak times; there's always space for everyone, even if you gotta wait a bit for a specific machine.

I'm sad to say but I had an abusive experience here. When I asked Diane to repeat the sequence of…read moreexercises she wanted me to perform she responded that I would have to 'get with the program' and remember without her needing to repeat. (This was a new series of exercises she was taking me through.) Then she said that the first sign of dementia is a loss of ability to sequence. I of course, did not return, even though I had paid for additional sessions.

I was a little concerned when I had a hard time finding early morning or late evening sessions to attend. Turns out I just needed to expand my search. Now that I've found the NE location it's going to be my home base for my fitness rediscovery. I am sore today just enough to remind me that I have these muscles and to regret my long departure from the gym but not severe enough to hinder daily activity or intimidate me away from going back. I am a fan!

This is not your momma's or daddy's old-school gym. You don't walk in and start using equipment half-cocked: they only do 30 minute appointments, recommended twice a week, either 1:1 or in a small group (up to three clients together). You do ONE set with as many reps as you can until you can't do any more with perfect form, and then move on to the next exercise. Trust me, 30 minutes is plenty of time to get your @$$ kicked in the best possible way. I work primarily with Lawrence, but sometimes I don't book far enough ahead and he's unavailable (because he's in high demand) so I have worked out with Edwin, Chris, Luke, and Allie. All of them are deeply knowledgeable, and genuinely invested in my progress. They make the burn fun and worthwhile, and they are very clearly extremely educated and know their stuff, ALL of them. I've been going six months now very consistently, and I'm so pleased with my results. I'll do my first body composition assessment tomorrow (Bod Pod) and I'm very keen to see where I'm at. Do yourself a favor and take a free introductory workout: you'll be hooked. Hurts so good!!
