Joined this Health Club in March worked out a few times and enjoyed it then I was called away for…read morebusiness. While away my emergency contact (EC) was contacted by the manager no less and considered a sales lead. The manager had taken her name off my profile and called her to come in under my recommendation for free trial work outs. My EC because my family is three hours north of Topeka happens to be my 68 yr old landlady who could contact my family if something happened. She's retired and one gin martini away from a nap about 8 hours of the day everyday. When I confronted the manager about the incident and told her how tacky it was I heard a thud as another employee got thrown under the bus, as she passed blame. Anyone play ball? (STRIKE ONE!! - lie) Needless to say I called my landlord who saves everything including the olive cocktail spears from those martini's and asked her to play the Genesis message to which I heard the managers voice. Then I called the manager who said oh I was just getting ready to call you back. (STEEEERIKE TWO!!-lie) I told her it was in fact her who called. She told me my EC must have gotten into her lead list by mistake. (STEEEERIKE THREE!! - lie and YOU'RE OUT!!) She did assure me though she would talk to the staff about this, so I was of course somewhat relieved. Because I wasn't a member that long, when I received a survey I felt it only fair to mark everything as neutral with the exception of the sales call to my EC so that was a four on staff. On the same call which was actually the purpose with the Genesis manager she tried to give me a guilt trip because I rated most of the survey questions as a 5 based on the 1-10 scale. I told her I hadn't been a member that long and it wouldn't be fair to give them all 10's when my attendance at McDonalds is higher than it is at Genesis currently. (You gonna finish those fries?) I find the facility to be nice, however there was no explanation on how to use any of the machines so I have to watch others and with all the mirrors I look like an intrusive overweight middle aged creeper begging for pepper spray in the parking lot. The staff seems stressed and I get the feeling it's because it's a high pressure sales environment. One day I went in and this poor kid at the front desk asked me if I knew of anyone else that I could bring in to work out because he needed to get more members in. I said no and don't call my emergency contact the manager already did, and it is 2 p.m. she's probably wasted by now. Things might improve if I ever get back in to work out, I tore my MCL stepping off the curb at KFC so once I recover I'll see how things go. It might be better for you this has just been my experience.

Just finished the Kansas Senior games in pickleball. The courts were filthy, some courts brighter…read morethan others. The portable nets were very loose although within regulation height. Unfortunately the young lady running the event did not have pickleball experience. Placing a number 1 or 2 behind each score sheet would let players know who would serve first not playing rock, paper scissors. I felt bad for guys who travelled the first day to play two games and be sent home. The second day was run much smoother under different rules. Everyone played more games. All in all still a fun place to play. Genesis you need to have chairs in your front lobby that don't look like you got them from a second hand store. Plenty of parking. Bathrooms kept clean.

The Shop Topeka is a Cross-Fit style gym that empasizes results instead of looks like most common…read moregyms. The Shop's exercises are comprised of group workouts. The Shop's dynamic group workouts emphasize mobility and body control, whipping lethargic muscles into shape without the crowded mechanical mishmash of big gyms. Small groups of 4-12 range in age and abilities but unite under a common flag of functional fitness, employing a slew of sandbags, free weights, and other forms of forceful resistance to usurp despotic fat cells. All classes are led by certified CrossFit trainers, whose battle-tested ethos shines through in a swiftly alternating, circuit-style workout format that shuns routine for a diverse range of movements including lifting, sprinting, jumping, dragging, throwing, and scuttling. These high-speed workouts are designed to accommodate military personnel, police officers, firefighters, and all professions who often work under stress and fatigue, emboldening participants to bulldoze mental blockades and drink from untapped sources of personal endurance. Ambitious athletes can master their muscles in up to five classes each week, selecting from the multiple class days and times on The Shop's schedule, with one-hour workouts typically beginning in the early morning and evening. A 2,400-square-foot complex capably houses most workouts, though trainers also arrange weekly programs of trail running, hill sprints, biking, and baby-elephant shot putting around the Topeka area. If you want the treadmills and mirrors, this isn't the place for you. If you want to feel better than you have ever felt and look better in your swimsuit this might be your place. Unmotivated people need not apply.

The shop is a fantastic Box/ Gym/ workout…read more I was visiting family and had just started crossfit the month before. Everyone in The Shop was very welcoming and helpful despite my inexperience. From the coach to the participants, it couldn't have been a more pleasant experience, well other than the kickass workouts. I can easily see that this gym works for everyone from beginner to fitness freak. The Shop is the real deal. I plan on attending again, the next time I am in the area.
