I've been to many gyms in many different towns, and can without a doubt say that SFC is truly the…read morebest gym I've trained at. It's a hidden gem full of great instructors and great students. Also it's one place that really feels like home and has a sense of family, everyone is cool with each other and all support one another; no one is a d-bag or thinks they're better than anyone else. The best instructors in town, a crazy low membership rate, full access, no contracts, KSU discount, awesome people, and an excellent facility make SFC the best choice in the area, period. If you don't believe me, they do a free week pass; go check it out yourself.

I recently visited Atlanta on business travel and did a drop-in at Impact / Kenny Kim BJJ…read more Professor Kenny Kim is a consummate professional, outstanding instructor, and supportive coach. Everyone was friendly and treated me like one of the "regulars"... and I felt very comfortable, right at home. The mat area is immense, extremely spacious and clean. There is a nice separate locker room and great shower area. There is also a nice pro shop with Gi's, rashguards, jiu jitsu gear bags, etc. I participated in an advanced (competition) class... we did positional sparring, regular training, and a particularly interesting drill where you had to pass without using hands and the guard player had to defend first with just hands no feet, then no hands just feet... As there is typically some apprehension with training with people that you just met, but I felt very comfortable with everyone at Kenny Kim's. I got some great rolls... I travel to Atlanta regularly and plan to return to Kenny Kim's for sure!!!

The main flaw I see is that cable attachments seem to be scattered across the floor. Energy is overall pretty low, but if you're just a guy on his way home from the office you'll find yourself in similar company. Overall as a gym i would rate it 6.5/10, but would not recommend it for the price point.

This is the place where I really formed my love of working out, and every time I go to another gym it just never can compete with how good this one was. This is what a gym should be in every way. The people were always great, no matter if it was the morning, afternoon, or evening I always enjoyed being in there. The equipment is all well-maintained. This place truly made me love lifting, and I hope there is a day where I can return just to have the feeling this place gave me return. In my year of going there I learned a lot from the people, who really got me into powerlifting and strength-training in general. I can safely say I don't think there is another gym which can replicate the feeling this one has. I genuinely contemplate living in Kennesaw or Acworth again just to go to this gym. Best gym in Georgia, maybe even the South-east hands down. Will try and drive the 90 minutes there sometime soon, just for the nostalgia and good lifts.

You can expect…read moresafe, form-focused, understandable, and well-informed coaching from any coach you encounter due to the robust and highly detailed developmental onboarding process that Gym Owner/Coach Mitchel Black sets in place for potential coaching candidates. Everyone here loves and believes in the importance of what they do. You aren't just gaining a new place to workout when you come here, you're gaining a second family...a place where you can truly make yourself a better person. And you can expect for your coaches and fellow gym members to have your back throughout the process. After graduating college and entering into professional work, I missed the motivation and camaraderie that came from being a part of a team in the fitness world. At Strongside, you are part of an amazingly supportive team that you don't ever need to leave! People from all backgrounds and all walks of life are welcomed with open arms. As Mitchel will tell you, fitness is the ultimate equalizer. Thanks to the many scaling options, experienced pros and new comers alike can workout side by side in the SAME class and BOTH leave feeling great about the sheer amount of work they just put in. And I promise you, you'll both be congratulating each at the end of it! The workouts will always be within your ability to complete successfully thanks to many scaling options, but no matter what your skill set...They. Will. Challenge. You! Don't expect not to be sore (in the good way!) For those of you who may be wondering or worried...this gym is as CLEAN as it could be! Mitchel puts in the time, work and money to make that happen!!! Equipment is also top of the line, and everyone is expected to treat it as such. We take care of what we love and value! Let me finish by saying, this is so much more than a gym, and the opportunities for growth are endless! Daily classes, private training sessions, yoga, gym-wide Intermural competitions, an annual winter formal, nutrition challenges, a gym sponsored Peachtree Road Race qualifying 5k/10k, and INSANE holiday workouts are just a few of the things I have been offered here at Strongside. And I know there is so much more to come.

I would not recommend enrolling at any of the existing Strongside locations due to Matt's lack of customer service.
