During the middle of the day, it's fairly empty, so there's maybe only 1-3 other people there during off-peak hours. Even in peak times, I see everyone working in with each other without any hassle. Desmond recently gave the place a really nice renovation with some new racks, so it's looking good there. Even before then, the gym's got all the equipment I need to get my workout done and then some. I always feel welcome here, and Desmond greets me by name anytime he sees me come in. If you just want to lift and don't need classes/training, the $20/mo is absolutely a great deal.

Gym's ok but don't trust them blindly with your credit card!…read more Every gym makes it hard to cancel your membership. But these guys go the extra mile to trick you. A year ago we signed up for a 9 months membership. We were planning to move out of Durham after grad school and specifically told them that we won't renew after the term ends. A few weeks before the end of our term we came to a reception and asked to cancel our membership. A person at the reception looked into our records and told us that our membership will be cancelled automatically and we don't have to do anything. We thought it's been taken care of but a couple months after we moved out we discovered that this gym still charges us monthly. Apparently to cancel a membership you're supposed to send an email with a request. We did that and they cancelled the membership but they haven't returned us $120 - what they've collected since we asked them to cancel it the first time. I've been calling them for weeks and they eventually returned half. I lost hope to return the other half. Like I said this gym may be ok for you. But keep in mind these guys are acting in bad faith: read the contract carefully, don't trust what they say, be prepared for unexpected charges.

O2 Fitness in Durham NC did not disappoint…read more The facility is very clean, extremely spacious, well-maintained, and fully stocked with top-tier equipment. Whether you're into heavy lifting, functional training, or cardio, they have everything you need. The staff is friendly, professional, and genuinely helpful -- you can tell they actually care about members and creating a great gym culture. The atmosphere is motivating without being intimidating, which makes it perfect for both beginners and serious lifters. Locker room was clean and the layout was spacious. To all my fellow Iron Addicts... If you're serious about your fitness and want a gym that delivers on quality, O2 Fitness is absolutely worth it. Highly recommend!

I had a negative experience at this gym because of one trainer's attitude. Erin came across as…read morecondescending and acted as if she owned the place, which made the environment feel uncomfortable and unwelcoming. I don't expect everyone to be overly friendly, but I do expect basic professionalism and respect, especially from staff or trainers working around members. The gym itself may be fine, and other people there may be great, but this interaction left a bad impression. I would be hesitant to recommend the gym unless management does a better job making sure trainers treat members with respect.

I decided to try barre because I am not a fan of high impact workouts. Don't be fooled by the minimal movements - these classes are no joke. But, the instructor was so friendly and encouraging the whole time and I didn't feel embarrassed or out of place. The studio is clean and everyone is very energetic and welcoming! It really is a fun and positive environment.

I was really excited when the new Pure Barre Durham opened in the new Shops at Erwin Mill shopping…read morecenter. I've checked out other barre places around the Triangle, and this one was right by my house! The class is exactly what you'd expect from a Pure Barre class (scripted, a routine you would know). You enter the studio, sign in, and set up inside the room. Barre socks are a must, so bring some with you. There are bathrooms both outside and inside of the actual room, and only one wall has a mirror - so you aren't forced in front of one if you don't want it. Both classes I took started late, which is annoying, but it was the first week they were open. I definitely think it takes more than once class to feel the workout - you'll spend the whole first class just understanding what's going on, so if you have the opportunity, a class package is the way to go. I purchased the 4 classes for $40 newcomers special (14 days to use). Unfortunately some of the days the studio was closed due to snow, but the owners were more than accommodating about adding a few days back onto the pass to cover it. However, it was nearly impossible to get into a class! Even a full week ahead of time, I could not get into a class or on a wait-list - AT ALL (I'm talking the entire weekend was full). So despite the owner's accommodation with adding a few days on to the package, I was only able to use two classes anyway. My suggestion: If you have time to take class during the off-peak hours (mid-day? I have no idea) then it's worth it, but otherwise, any kind of package that can expire might not be worth your money. This might be due to the fact that they just opened a few weeks ago, so hopefully as they hammer out a better schedule, include more classes, etc. this won't be an issue.

Other than training facilities, there are nice paintings and personalized music playlist. I started my training with Corey in the middle of the pandemic (Dec, 2020).

After 102 workouts, I feel much stronger and healthier. Amazing gym! Amazing trainer! Truly recommended.

I've been working out with Trey (one of the personal trainers) for about 10 sessions so far and…read moreI've had a very positive experience (well, there was some muscle soreness but that was a good thing!). Maitland's Method might not be on your radar for personal fitness because it's not one of those big conglomerate gyms, but you should definitely consider it. Just to give you a summary: - This gym is primarily for personal training but you get access to some of the equipment as a regular client - They offer individual and partner training sessions (partner sessions are half the price which makes it very affordable) - Emphasis on strength and resistance training - Lots of very solid equipment and free weights Maitland and his team have a long history of strength training -- check out the wall of bodybuilding trophies and photos when you walk through the entrance. Among their trainers are bodybuilding champions and an ex-NFL linesman. You don't need to be an aspiring bodybuilder to appreciate the workout routine. There's a diverse mix of clients -- men, women, young, and old. Each trainer follows Maitland's method (hence the name) which has been refined over many years. Still learning about the method but so far so good! The trainers help you throughout the routine, keep a log of your exercises, and help you build fitness plans (for inside and outside the gym). For someone like me that forgets to count reps, this place is a godsend. My workout has become much more focused and efficient. I use to be able to waste hours at the gym when I was younger but now I recognize the importance of getting the most out of the time as possible. The extra cost for personal training has been well worth it! Trey has been especially friendly and effective. At nearly 7' tall and built like a football player (no surprise he use to play for the Colts) he might seem a little intimidating but he's actually probably one of the nicest guys you will ever meet. The exercises have been safe and I've been able to blend my new routine with soccer and running. He's helping prepare me for a marathon and build muscle at the same time (which will hopefully help prevent injury).
