After I decided to take a break from CrossFit, I needed a workout replacement. I decided to check…read moreout Trufit because it was just opening their Detroit location, which happens to be about 1/4 mile away from my office. It certainly doesn't get much more convenient than that. There are several different classes to choose from. TruX has a lot of the same moves and aspects of CrossFit but without the Olympic lifting. Trustrength has less cardio, and is (obviously) more focused on strength. SWEAT is predominantly cardio. And Glow Boxing is precisely what it sounds like - a cardio boxing class under party lights. There is even yogabon Saturday morning. The folks are nice the coaches generally good. You can register and schedule classes with the mind body app, which is hella convenient. It even syncs with my calendar. My main beef is that, only being open a few months, the schedule changes, generally without notice. I have scheduled classes at specific times, only to look at my calendar a few days later and discover that the time on the class was changed to a time I never signed up for. Easily fixable, but annoying. Hopefully random scheduling changes will happen less and less often as the Detroit location becomes more established.

Work in a bedrock building and looking to join one of the best gyms around? Doubting if this gym…read morehas everything you need? Let's do a quick checklist... Gym with plenty of cardio options... check. Plenty of sq feet to spread out and work.. check Don't feel like running on a machine, and want to run on a 1/8 of a mile track... check Want free classes (cycling, hiit, yoga)... check Prefer the free weights for weight lifting... you got it Full basketball court to join in on pick up basketball, volleyball, or floor hockey... check Want to relax in a sauna... come on in Bonus.... depending on your status they will validate parking at the adjoining parking structure.

If you work in or near the Compuware building, this is a pretty great option for a gym. The price…read moreis more expensive than you would normally pay for a chain gym, but It was worth it to me. The gym itself has all the cardio and weight machines you would expect from a larger chain gym, an indoor walking/running track, and two larger indoor basketball courts. The machines are always pretty clean and I found the people to be more courteous here than say a planet fitness; possibly because they know they all work together. Another option for this gym is that they have a lower cost membership that grants access to the walking/running track and the showers/locker room. This is nice if you love near downtown and want to run to work or if you are a bike commuter. I believe they still do classes or the guy behind the desk will show you how to use the machines and set up a basic workout plan with you. Overall, this place is pretty nice and has a good vibe; if you're looking for a place to workout downtown, try this out.

My experience going into Crossfit in the D has been great. I never thought I would enjoy CrossFit,…read morehowever I've used the movements I'm able to do as a survival tool. The Coaches has worked with me on the other movements I'm able to do. Being a man of color, I look for diversity which I like. Which CrossFit in the D has. The Coaches are nice and holds me accountable which I need. Side note when I was suffering from depression and after my father passed away. I was away from the gym for months. The Coaches were calling, texting and encouraging me to get back in the gym. In some ways CrossFit in the D saved my life. Isn't this what a community is about? If you're looking for this in a gym and coaches. CrossFit in my opinion is the place to train. Much love to Dave, Jen, Ibis and Zak

Upon arriving to the gym coach Todd introduced himself and provided me an overview of the gym layout and equipment. The facility is extremely well kept, as is the equipment. I followed my own programming throughout the week but took note of the class programming and was very impressed with the format. I plan to jump in with the class on my next visit. I met several members of the community throughout the week and found everyone to be both pleasant and helpful. Overall a fantastic gym and community. It also does not hurt that it is collocated with a smoothie/juice bar. I definitely recommend those in the area drop-in, as I had a great experience.

Sauna review ONLY…read more.. I'm very pleased to have a location that I don't have to be a member to use their sauna and on top of that you're able to reserve using their app. Please note they did book quickly, so book a head. **Let me start off - every REIF is pricing is different. So confirm pricing before booking. For all their services, they do request you arrive 15 to 30 mins early which I didn't know they'll also allow you to go in early as well. The sauna has it's own room, so no need to change in the restroom. You'll get a total of 45 mins, so make sure to change FAST. Lol! So why 3 stars? Well I was informed they have WIFI, music streaming, and Netflix (if you have an account) all in the sauna area; unfortunately when i tried internet, it was SO SLOW. I literally couldn't do anything - I was glad at least a class was going so i'll have some good music playing in the background (tried to tone out the instructor). I was excited to use the pre-settings in the sauna system but it seems like it wasn't getting heat enough - eventually i cancelled and turned up to the max. I will return but with a plan - soon as i walk in TURN UP THE TEMPERATURE (while i change) and don't count on internet to be working. If this place was closer, then i might look the other way but since i literally passed two other REIF; I was looking for top notch I guess.

I call in December. "We won't be open until Jan.2021." I call in January. "We will be open in a couple of weeks, but no later than Feb.15." I call in February. "We won't be open until March." I returned my unused swag bag back to the the HB location and the Mgr was short with me about returning items and wanting my deposit back. She says, "Corporate will send you a check for your deposit." I asked for an email confirmation that I returned my items and I am to receive a refund. She said she would email me. I haven't seen refund or email and had to dispute charges to my bank. I am now reporting them to BBB also for ignoring my phone calls and not replying to any emails.

Retrofit is the most underrated, awesome HIIT-style gym in Metro-Detroit. I started going to…read moreRetrofit back in 2017 after moving back to Royal Oak from Los Angeles. Since then, the owner Brad has continued to evolve his gym both in supplies, training style, and employees. They offer affordable 1:1 training as well as group fitness classes that are effective and efficient. As a trainer myself, I love their method of using drop-sets, heavy weights, and functional movement/cardio.

A couple of months ago, I realized that I was tired of overcrowded gyms & getting to exercise…read moreclasses 30 minutes early to fight for a spot. I also realized that it was one more excuse that I didn't need to avoid exercising. A long time ago, I had a really good experience with a Personal Trainer, and decided that was what I needed to do. I came across Retrofit Studio reviews here on Yelp, sort of accidentally. I liked what I read from the reviews & their website. I liked the idea of a private studio too. I called Brad & set up a consultation. There is no doubt that Brad loves what he does & wants every client to be successful. He spent a lot of time listening & talking to me about realistic goals, nutrition, and what to expect. He decided to set me up with Mark, one of his trainers. So far, I have had 8 training sessions with Mark. When Brad said he was a good fit for me, he was right! My sessions are 30 minutes, 2 times a week. By the time I leave, I am a sweaty mess! Mark challenges me, makes sure I have good form, and always encouraging. If I don't do it right, I have to do it again. Every session varies to work different muscle groups, especially the areas that are difficult to target. As hard as he makes me work, I'm never too sore to exercise in between our sessions. That is important to me because I need to do my part outside of our sessions. Mark checks with me regarding my diet and what I'm doing to reach my weight loss goals between our sessions. I always have fun training with Mark even when it's really difficult. The studio itself is great. It's very clean, doesn't smell funky like a lot of gyms (ha!), and a great variety of training techniques & equipment. There are a few cardio machines for client use before or after a session. Every trainer is always encouraging clients, whether it's their client or not. What about results? I started to feel stronger right away and continue to feel that way. I'm steadily losing weight & seeing the jiggle disappear! My muffin top is shrinking! I asked my husband if he noticed any changes. The poor guy looked at me with slight fear of answering the wrong way. ha! I wanted an honest answer. I don't expect fast results, but I am curious if the changes I see are noticeable to others. He said that he has seen a big change. He said I have been a lot happier since I started training with Mark. I wasn't expecting that answer & it made me realize I haven't felt that way about getting in shape (or trying to) in a long time. It sort of made me all verklempt! This is one of the best decisions I've made in a long time!
