You can get a good workout here and actually grunt during lifts, unlike Planet Fitness. If you're looking for a gym that has heavy weights and that old school feel this is the spot in NC county.

Pretty great gym, compared to other gyms in the area the training center tops them all. Much more…read moreof a true lifting gym then total fitness or retro fitness. Prime time isn't swamped with people who don't know what they are doing either. Been here about a month and so far it's one of the better gyms I've lifted at. Only reason why it's not 5 stars is because the locker room could be updated a bit. Other then that it's cheaper and better then any gym around.

When I think of YMCAs, I usually think of crappy old gyms with really dated rusty old school bikes…read morethat hurt to ride for many parts of your body. I am usually reminded of old swimming pools with lots of kids and questionable athlete's foot floors. But this YMCA completely changed my opinion about YMCAs. I don't when YMCAs made a major transition, but this gym was at same level if not better than most "elite" gyms or at least the ones that come with "elite" price tag. The cardio/fitness room was completely equipped with the newest workout equipment, including awesome bikes with interactive TVs where you can race people while you exercise. For me, I was happy with all the TVs that faced the numerous brand-new treadmills, elliptical machines and steppers. During my 6-week stay in Wilmington, I went to this gym at different times during the day and even during "peak" times (6-7am or 5-7pm), I could easily get a machine without waiting. If you're looking for a new gym, don't pay for a more expensive gym when this YMCA really has it all.
