    HIIT Area
    Chantal O.

    This YMCA location is a good place to work out. They are located on Biscayne Blvd. really close to Bayfront park and next to Whole Foods. The gym is inside a building on the 15th floor. Parking isn't great unless you work in the area or park a few blocks away. I believe they do have a garage but not sure about access and cost. The gym is pretty big, there is a weight room, basketball court, HIIT area, cycling room and a separate room for yoga, Pilates and dance classes. Lockers and restrooms are in great condition, there was some construction in the ladies restroom but still pretty clean. The HIIT class with Francisco was good, there is a small area with some machines, weights and ropes that he uses for this class. The class wasn't too crowded so the space was OK. We did move to the basketball court at the beginning of the class so he can play around with the space if more people show up. He set different stations with weights, cardio and body weight exercises so a good full body workout. I would go back to try additional classes.

    So as I've said before, I think you should follow these three steps. (a) do what a Detroit-based rapper would do and join this place. (b) come every day. (c) listen to Eminem. Why Em? See (A). Despite the fact that it's a brand new facility and despite the fact that everything works wonderfully and lots of cool people use it - especially young people - I have to downgrade this YMCA because it's just so hard to access for people who haven't used it before and for out of towners. In fact they don't even let you into the building when it's close to closing time and when I mean won't let you in, I mean the elevators don't even work. That's seriously messed up if you're leaving 10 minutes before closing time and you get down to street level and realize that you forgot something. So nah. It's just not user-friendly at all and while some of the employees here are great and in one case even very flirtatious, others are disengaged and disingenuine. The locker rooms are gorgeous and palatial though which was appreciated. But I'll definitely have to see improvement here next time, and better usability, if I was going to raise them to five. Now I'm what YMCA... you might call annoyed. So I'm done with this review thx.

    Multiple floors of weight.

    Decent gym, nothing spectacular but good for people who don't need much but some weights and a space to squat.

    This gym was sorely needed downtown. What a great facility. All new equipment. Plenty of selection and plenty of space.

    After training at SWEAT 440 for over 2 years, I could say that it was an exciting first year and a…read moreregular second year. The Good: 1.- Definitely having the flexibility schedule is the main benefit. Classes start every 10 minutes. 2.- The training programa are generally good. I like the idea of not having to think in advance the exercises for a workout. 3.- 40 minutes and you are all set. This is how long the classes last. The Not So Good 1.- I don't know if they vacuum the carpet daily, but it should be done more throughly. Most of the time after a floor exercise, I get up with hair over my body. 2.- During peak hours, sometimes they don't have enough towels. 3.- The staff is super nice, but I would like they being more active correcting exercises or posture. 4.- After training for two years, in some exercises, the weight is not challenging anymore. 5.- Cancellation process is slow. You cannot do it at the studio, you have to call to a phone number and they take their time to help you. In the end, I am cancelling because I feel like I am stalled. I would like to try something different and might come back in the future If I am able to keep my rate.

    The workout is great, sign up and never be late to class again! I love the flexibility of having a…read moredifferent class every 10 minutes. The workouts change every day and are never the same. Repeated visits shows up on the screen as extra motivation and helps. I love the attention to detail this studio provides to the members. The bathrooms are always clean. My only complaint is that not all the staff cares to help you adjust and fix your posture or work on the form correctly. It's a bit frustrating to watch the staff not help the members. As a member for years, I've seen staff change and it's unfortunate that the staff right now isn't as attentive as they used to be when they opened. However, if you know what you're doing, this is a great workout in 40 minutes and keeps your heart rate up the entire time.

Everything is just so well thought out. The videos are super clear and actually enjoyable to watch, which makes it really easy to follow along without feeling lost. The machines are incredibly ergonomic and really target your glutes and lower body in a way that makes it almost effortless to keep proper form. It honestly feels like everything is tailored to your body. I also love the structure, having two people per station and the ability to reserve your spot every 10 minutes keeps things flowing and never overcrowded. Time flies when you're there. The coaches are amazing. I've tried several of them already, and they all strike the perfect balance between guiding your form and giving you the space to do your thing. As someone who doesn't enjoy big, traditional gyms, I can honestly say I'm so happy I joined. I'm genuinely impressed and actually look forward to my workouts here. And Adam, the owner, is an absolute sweetheart!

    Glutehouse is a great gym membership if you want to focus on your lower body, not just your butt!…read more My favorite part is that classes start every 10 minutes so you can always find a time that works in your schedule. The classes are difficult but only as challenging as you make it because it's strength training -- if you're not in the mood one day, you can push yourself a little less. There are 5 stations and then a bonus optional station. There are videos sent to your app before the class as well as screen instructions during the class and a floor coach to help you through the exercises. It's a great way of learning how to do new exercises in a gym if you're new to weight lifting. I was scared of a lot of gym equipment and now I feel like I could workout in the gym on my own thanks to the techniques I learned at glutehouse Everything is top of the line and the gym itself is really beautiful. There are so many little touches to make it cute and peach-y :) My only complaint is that you can only do it 2 times a week so even if you get a membership, you need to supplement with other workouts. I personally like doing cardio on my off days but it's definitely pricy as a gym if you have to do a lot separately outside of the classes

    I recently abandoned my ritzy gym membership for ClassPass. I was excited to give Epic Hybrid…read moreTraining a try! There's a handful of different class formats that rotate, and within those workouts are circuits that also change monthly. Epic is a national chain, so you may be doing the same workout as a friend who goes to the outpost in NYC, SF, DC, or maybe just Coral Gables. Each class is 45 minutes and consists of a warmup, circuit, and cool down. By the time you're done mopping the floors, it ends up going a little over, but you'll probably be in and out within an hour. Even though it's strength training and you do exercises you may be used to doing in shoes, you're actually barefoot which I love! I've only been a handful of times but plan on returning again and again. The instructors are super kind and motivating. I always feel like I get a good workout and know I'll get stronger with consistent attendance. Not only that, but I'm planning for my first Tough Mudder this year and know this is the perfect place to train. Would definitely recommend giving this spot a try, no matter where you are on your fitness journey.

    5 Star workout and community…read more I usually do not review places other than restaurants, but this place deserves a great shoutout. This is not your usual workout. Everyday of the week is a different workout, with all the workouts changing every month; this will keep you on your toes on every workout, challenging yourself to learn and master new moves. Aside for the ever varying workouts, the instructors are great, they are always there to motivate you to push you a bit harder, and if you have questions they will also be there to assist you. In contrast to Crossfit, the exercises at Epic allow you to work at your own pace and level, you will see people who modify the every station to make it suitable for them, while others will level them up. But the most attractive point about Epic for me is its sense of community. If you have ever gone to a gym by yourself you will notice the difference that comes working out with someone side by side, it pushes you to work harder, to improve, and to take the boring out of the workouts. This is not a place to go if you are looking to "build up" given that the exercises are of a high intensity nature, but if you are looking for a community that will help you stick with your fitness goals Epic is a great choice.
