Also, it was free to use, which was nice. Separate cardio/weightlifting workout areas, basketball courts, a pool, running track, raquetball courts, and "Group X" classes (everything from spinning to yoga and core classes) made for a great, comprehensive offering of options. Only a few negatives: -the cardio center is always always packed -the weight room is full of beefy jock dude bros which can make it intimidating if you're a female student who's in their late(r) twenties -as Ari said, if you aren't a student, it's probably not worth it monetarily

I use to visit the Klotsche Center a lot when I was working on my Master's at UWM. I was amazed by…read morethe size of this place!! They definitely have a lot of equipment in the general workout area and seem to keep things clean and in good working order, which amazes me because there is A LOT of daily traffic. With that said, it gets very busy certain times of the day and you will end up waiting to use machines. What frustrated me the most were the girls with curled hair, tons of makeup, and the shortest of shorts barley walking (like 2.0 walk) on the treadmill or elliptical that never broke a sweat. Then they go sit on machines or "stretch" for 20-30 minutes, clearly trying to pick up the bros that also hog gym equipment; these people also have the nerve to stare at the females who are there to ACTUALLY work out. Once I saw this sign that said: "If you still look pretty at the end of your workout, then you didn't train hard enough." That's the motto I go by when I'm at the gym, which is why the little gym bunnies and bros *really* bug me. So, I learned to workout at very odd times - like 6am-7:30am or in the middle of the day when all the undergrads had class. It was usually pretty free Sat&Sun mornings too. I also learned to run on the indoor track; I got great enjoyment out of speeding by the others with sweat dripping down my face. Klotsche is a good facility if you are a student here and the segregated fees will cover the cost (5 stars there). Be prepared to experiment with best times to go if you want to get a real workout in (definitely a -1, if not -2). I do not recommend purchasing a membership if you are a community member or alumni. It's is ridiculously expensive and you still have to pay for parking in the structure!

The…read moreworkouts really pushed you to get stronger, faster and last longer and even in a class environment, the attention given to each member was as if they were private training sessions (with the fun of group encouragement, and giving each other a hard time once in a while of course!). The best part of the gym is that the classes allow each member to go at their own pace so it was a fit for the beginner who had never been to a gym before (like me when I started there) to the person who's been working out their whole life. And of course safety was first and foremost as the trainers made sure each lift, exercise was done properly by each person or you wouldn't do it and a substitute exercise would be given. I really wish I had the time to get back to it but in the meantime, more room for you!

I set up a consultation with someone in the facility back in November, but as I arrived at the center, I realised it was all empty?

A few weeks ago, I received a very well-written and motivating email from the owner about fitness and maintaining healthy habits, this prompted me to give it one last shot. I once again called the place, left them a voicemail ANDD responded to the very inspiring email, but all in vain. I really wanted to give my business to this place, but I guess they didn't want it.

The athletes were extremely welcoming and accepted all shapes, sizes, and ability levels with open arms in true CF fashion. Everyone chipped in to clean up after class.

The box is connected to a gym operated by the owner's husband allowing for an even better, overall fitness experience. The owner, who coached the classes I attended, was extremely knowledgeable in Olympic lifting and took extra time after class to work with me on cleans. Love this place.

Being someone who struggled for over 15 years with chronic back pain and fatigue, to my surprise these classes have truly been a life saver. While researching on line trying to find a personal trainer that specializes in working with back problems I came across a journal sentinel article about this gym. I went in knowing nothing or ever even heard of cross fit. I told them about my back problems and my prior surgeries. I started out real slow, barely enough strength to do a girl push up. They spent a lot of time explaining the exercises, how to alter them in regards to my fitness level making sure I do them correctly and use proper form. I mostly work with Matt, who has helped me tremendously. Slowly I've been gaining more and more strength and endurance I didn't know I was capable of. Everyone that works out there is so super supportive and I actually look forward to getting exercise! The biggest part of all this....My back pain and the pain down my leg is GONE, like it was never there. I am so thankful to have found this place!!!

Also, there will be classes off blocking off the entire weight room during my only period of time to work out so I am unable to get the kettlebell weights needed for my exercises due to a class using a PUBLIC room. Lastly, the pickleball afternoon times are so limited and they will randomly have lessons without posting anywhere on the virtual schedule causing people to drive all the way there and they can't use the gym for the already limited pickleball times. I mean you guys have two apps (confusing!) you'd think you could figure out how to post the times online... The good: for what you get with the classes and really nice showers the price is relatively affordable.
