The Forum Athletic Club - Clear warning sign in the gym but staff doesn't care about health warnings

The Forum Athletic Club

Ok, I honestly didn't think I'll enjoy this gym as much as I did. This was my first time trying a…read morenew gym while being out of town. I plan on doing more of this in the future and what a great facility The Forum Athletic club was to start at. The gym's aesthetic fits the industrial theme in this area of Atlanta. It's super clean on the inside and small. Although it's small, it doesn't feel like it because it doesn't get crowded (at least the two times I went) and it still has everything you need to be successful in the gym. For example, squat racks, cardio machines, free weights, stretch area, cross fit style room, clean bathrooms, towels...I mean checks, after checks, after checks! I think I enjoyed this gym more than my home gym in Ft. Lauderdale but shhh don't tell anybody lol. The only con I would say is there isn't hand sanitizing wipes or machines. When I come back to the ATL I would def have to make it a priority to revisit.

Serious Safety & Liability Concerns - This Gym Puts Members at Risk…read more This gym is playing fast and loose with member safety, and it needs to be called out. The sauna has a clearly posted warning sign stating a maximum safe temperature of 185°F. Despite this, staff and management insist on running it at 200°F, knowingly exceeding their own posted safety limits. That alone is reckless and a massive liability issue. What made this worse: I entered the sauna first at a safe temperature. Another gym member then came in and turned the temperature up to 197°F, completely ignoring the warning sign. When I pointed out the posted safety limit, this individual became aggressive, threatened me, harassed me, and disturbed my peace while I was simply trying to protect my health. No member should feel unsafe--physically or verbally--while using a wellness facility. Management's response? Dismissive and unconcerned. Instead of addressing: * the unsafe temperature settings * the violation of posted safety guidelines * the harassment and threatening behavior by another member ...the manager failed to take the situation seriously at all. This gym is exposing itself to serious liability by: * Ignoring its own safety warnings * Allowing saunas to operate at dangerous temperatures * Failing to intervene when a member is threatened Saunas are supposed to support health--not endanger it. Until management starts prioritizing member safety, accountability, and basic respect, I strongly do not recommend this gym. Consider this a warning.

The complimentary teas were so great, including a detox option. The massage specialists were top notch professionals, I can't remember the last time I'd gotten a massage that effective. I definitely left the sauna feeling the epitome of relaxed!

However, their other locations, like Atlanta, feel completely neglected by comparison. It seems clear that corporate priority has shifted almost entirely toward expanding their barre and Core Fusion offerings at the expense of traditional practice. After over a year of membership, I ultimately decided to cancel. The monthly cost simply no longer justified the value, especially as the culture shifted heavily toward the ultra-physical--a push-harder, get-skinny mindset that feels rooted in superficiality rather than wellness. The instructor lineup reflects this shift, with those teaching the most intense, workout-driven classes being rewarded with more time slots, while traditional yoga instructors have either left or had their schedules drastically cut.

I never heard of this gym before, but I'm so happy that I found it! I came across it when looking…read morefor open gym time through Class Pass. It's a little on the smaller side compared to big commercial gyms, but it has all of the necessary machines needed for a well-rounded workout. The machines all seemed to be in tip top shape save for one of the stair masters, which was out of commission (although this is of course typical at any gym so definitely no fault there!). The gym overall seemed really clean, especially the locker room/bathroom! I truly was blown away by how nice it looked and the number of items they provide to those that plan to shower and freshen up! I honestly hesitated writing this review since I love this place so much, and there's not a ton of members from the looks of it, but I was too blown away to not share! Also, they validate parking--the validated parking ticket can be found at the front desk.

Let me tell y'all, TIL THIS DAY, I weep that I no longer have a membership at this gym. My previous…read morejob payed for it and it was HEAVENLY. Like I have yet to come across a gym that stood up to the caliber of this place. Maybe it is because of the location and the amount of traffic it gets but this gym was close perfection to me. If I had to describe this gym, I would say it's a medium sized gym located in the Bank of America building. They basically have every since piece of workout equipment you need except the one that works out ya butt. The staff is super personable and kind, they hand you fresh towels, and have locker rooms which contain both a sauna and steam room. They also have showers. The design and feel of the place is also very modern. When I used to go, they always had contests and raffles in which you could win cool prizes like a free month membership and such. They also have someone come out to do super accurate body fat measurements every now and then. The gym was never overly crowded and it was always very clean. They also contain a dance/spin room in which you could do calisthenics and things. There are constant cleaning wipes placed over the place to clean your machines and the overall energy of the place is calm and accepting. I didn't even go there for long and the staff learned my name. The only downside I would say is the location, which is in the cut, but because it's inside a building, there's also no parking and in midtown, parking is super scarce as is. This gym taught me a lot and honestly provided an area in which I was comfortable of tackling my weight and experimenting on different exercises without feeling judged or stared at. It's weird to say but this gym lowkey has a place in my heart. I've been to other gyms no other has the feel of this one. I'm not sure if I would call this place pricey only because I'm not sure what the average gym membership price is but it is definitely worth it. You can workout at any gym but the ambience, equipment, and cleanliness of a gym is what honestly makes it. RPM excels in all those areas and even its members are generally respectful and nice. And oddly enough, til this day I don't know what the acronym RPM stands for lol. If you need a gym in which you can really dedicate yourself, big or obese without feeling too pressured or embarrassed by the public eye, this is definitely the place for you. Normal, kind, people with varying intensities on how they workout without the judgement. Check it out.

Yes, yes, yes, yes! Blast is an awesome fitness studio! So glad I stumbled upon this studio,…read morebecause your girl is in need of some great motivation to lose weight. I purchased the first timer promo, $36 for 3 classes, and went to my first class on Tuesday after work, and let's just say Josè is an awesome instructor! Being that it was my first time at a Blast studio, Josè showed me around, and gave me a brief rundown on how the class will be ran, so I knew what to expect. He made me feel welcomed and answered any questions I had. He also let me know the studio validates parking, in the parking deck, so I don't need to worry about paying for parking! The gym is really clean and nicely put together. There are also free lockers so you can stow your goodies away, while you burn fat! Now on to the workout. So I've never worked out for a straight 60 minutes (hence why I'm out of shape hehe), but Josè was so fun and energetic, time flew by and I didn't even realize I went the entire class without stopping! We did so many fun workouts on the treadmill and the floor. I have an semi-athletic background, so many of the exercises we did, weren't too intimidating but they were definitely challenging! I worked up a pretty nice sweat, and a few times I wanted to yell at Josè for making us work soo hard, lol but I am so glad he kept pushing us, because I know I needed it. I'll be going back to more classes at Blast, especially when Josè is there! Excellent gym and staff, and I will be back. Side note: if you're looking for a COVID-19 friendly space to work out, this studio isn't for you. No one wore masks during the exercise, and the studio where classes are held is really small, so no social distancing. Ventilation was really good though, so it didn't feel like I was breathing old air. To public: if you are coming to workout in a public place, please make sure your hygiene is up to par. Wear deodorant at the minimum, because it's just rude to others to have to smell your funk while working out. Just saying.

I'm a fan! I decided to come try BLAST with my trial with ClassPass and really enjoyed the high…read moreintensity workout. The studio is located in midtown next to Kale Me Crazy and parking is validated if you park in the garage. The staff is helpful for new students and showed us the studio space as well as explained expectations for the class (what they will call out, what it means, what the assistant does during class, etc). I liked the fast pace workout and the energy of the instructor. At the end of the class I felt like I had a great workout that worked all parts of my body (arms, legs, abs). I love that the attentiveness of the staff in helping students refill water during class. They also keep the shower and bathroom clean and stocked with gym essentials (shampoo, hair dryer, lotion, bag for wet cloths). The only downside is that the space is quite small so that at the beginning and end of class it can be a little crowded in the hallways.
