I started my health journey walking the beach and doing at-home yoga routines. When I moved back to…read moreMonmouth I didn't know what I would do to replace that feeling of joy while being active. I have never been a member of a gym and still am not a member of Monmouth Fitness club. They offer a punch card and that works for me. I have climbed thousands of floors, attended plenty of classes, weighed myself many times on the BMI scale,and cried plenty of tears here. Going to a gym can be intimidating especially for newbies. I have always felt welcomed here. The group fitness classes are absolutely superb. All of the instructors are very passionate about the classes they teach. I have been to the most classes with Jacqueline and she is an excellent teacher. She makes sure the classes are always welcoming and always keeps the class exciting with a new routine. If you're looking to kickstart your health journey, MFC is definitely a good place to be!

For the price I'm disappointed sweat towels and a water fountain aren't provided. There's two single bathrooms but no shower- again pretty disappointing and this gym is kind of out of the way unless you live at Salishan. This gym is 24 hours and $10 for a day pass, $35 for a week pass, $70 for a couple. Very strict rules about not being anyone with you to try out the gym unless they pay that day pass fee. This gym does provide life alert type pendants to wear while you're working out if you have health concerns, which is an amazing thing to offer.

Update from previous review about great gym but super filthy …read more.. Indeed someone must have cleaned after review. It was immaculate for a couple of weeks. Then back to the normal dirt and dust bunnies and sand everywhere. It's especially bad right now. I've heard supposedly a staff is injured? So ... nobody else can run a broom? I travel for work and have been to so many gyms. This one is top tier in all categories fitness - great equipment, lots of options, new and always working machines, lighting and space, amazing staff ... all the best I've seen literally worldwide. I can't believe it exists in LC and we are lucky to have them! However, I stand on the cleanliness problem. I'm unexpectedly here longer than normal and I've been hanging out with the same dust bunnies and piles of dirt for over two weeks now and they're growing. I have pics! It's gross! If you don't see it then be thankful your workouts don't include floor work (but why isn't your workout including floor work?!). Love the gym ... but ick.

Monthly fees are on par with the rest of the local gyms, (about $30/monthly for basic). New member deals might be a nice incentive for management to consider. Or rewards for Yelp reviews. Just sayin. Individual TVs for most equipment and all equipment is clean and in good working order. I've found that mid-afternoon (2:30p - 4:00p) is a great time to workout without much fanfare. Other gym members that I've encountered are respectful and considerate...except for two guys that run on the treadmill while insisting on simultaneously having a conversation they barely have breath for...you know who you are. Very pleased with my membership here and the way I've never felt out of place or unwelcome. You'll be happy too. Except when those two guys are yell-talking on the treadmill about their buddy Jim from marketing with the new jet skis. But I digress.

I am writing to report serious cleanliness and safety concerns at the spa. Over the past two…read moremonths--while visiting daily--I observed persistent mold around the rim of the spa, on the walk-in support handle, and on the window sills. I have never seen the sauna or hot tub room cleaned during that time. On two occasions I became extremely ill after visits and feared for my health. I asked staff who were cleaning the steam room to address the hot tub area and window sills, but they failed to do so. I also discovered a large clump of pubic hair in the public steam room, which is unacceptable. Despite maintaining my membership and returning sporadically to check for improvements, conditions have only worsened. Additionally, I experienced disrespectful and inappropriate behavior from other patrons while in the sauna: I was mocked, whistled at, and even approached in a way that felt like harassment. I witnessed underage girls making advances toward patrons, which is deeply troubling for a facility that should be safe and peaceful. These issues indicate a pattern of poor cleanliness practices and inadequate supervision. I will be reporting these concerns to the local health department. I urge management to address sanitation practices, staff training, and patron conduct immediately to ensure the facility is safe and welcoming for all guests. Most of the equipment has been poorly maintained and or is broken as well. Its best to be honest so here you go, this place has a sign in the front of the building saying they have the finest spa in the area, not true.
