If you're like me, you have been unhappy that you had to stop working out back in April/May when…read morethe Sporting Club closed due to the PA government mandate. I have been a member at this gym since the '80's. I have spent the last seven years using the XFORCE machines and even though I had to stop, Izvestia maintained most of my muscle mass. I returned to the gym three weeks ago today and I felt like I was back in my happy mental state of mind. No worries whatsoever about catching the coronavirus as the gym has a plastic shield around the reception area, every machine gets wiped down after every use and I was completely safe as everyone wears masks. Bring your own water bottle. Go back if you are missing your workouts as it's safe. I'm 78 and absolutely not afraid. Hope to see you there. Bonnie

Platoon is probably not what you'd expect when you think of a gym…read more You'd probably be expecting rows and rows of treadmills and weight machines, a nice locker room, and of course some TVs. Platoon doesn't really have that. It focuses on personal training and fitness classes, and they like to do those things outside. It's actually a very good deal - for every personal training session you go to, you can get a free outdoor class. I'm very fond of my trainer, Kat, who is eternally optimistic and encouraging when it comes to working out. However, the rest of the trainers hanging around the gym are always nice and friendly to me. It's a very welcoming environment, and I've been enjoying my time there more than I ever thought I would. To summarize: If you're looking for a gym that'll provide you with lots of elliptical machines and a smoothie bar, Platoon probably isn't what you're looking for. But if you realize that working out is great when other people know you personally and are encouraging you, go to Platoon. It's a great place.

I've been taking the group fitness classes here for about a year and a half now and I love them! The studio is clean and bright and has a wide variety of well-maintained equipment. The group strength classes are full body, and you hit all the muscle groups as you work through ten different stations. And I love that it's never the same class twice. There's always a new variety of exercises to challenge you and keep you from getting bored. I've taken class with several different trainers and they're all fabulous. Not only are they friendly and encouraging, but they're also very knowledgeable and attentive to proper form. But what I love most about coming here is the positive vibes I get in every class. Every person in every class is welcoming and encouraging no matter where you are in your fitness journey. I always leave the studio feeling stronger, happier, and more confident than when I walked in.

Based on this experience, I would not recommend this location.

Of all the terms people would use to describe me, "gym rat" is absolutely not one of them. I have…read morenever been someone who would spend hours in the gym "working out". So when FDC gave me a gift for 4 sessions with Perfect Workout, I went with a fair amount of skepticism. Why? Because the program is 1:1 training, with a goal of muscle 'failure' within 2 minutes on any exercise, total of 20 minutes workout 1-2 times a week. How could that possibly make a difference? Still, I went, way back in February, and I've been going ever since. Here's what I love: It is absolutely 20 minutes, no kidding. It's a seriously difficult workout for those 20 minutes. Training is 1:1. There are only two trainers and two people being trained at any time. The trainers are experts. Just because I am not a 'gym rat' does not mean I have never trained or 'worked out'. The difference is that the trainer is paying very close attention to my form, making tiny adjustments that mean I'm using muscles in ways I have never had to before. I learned that I had bad habits, the biggest of which was engaging my shoulders in place of other muscles such as my pectorals or biceps. The 20 minutes, no lie, they are HARD minutes. Everything hurts. By the end my legs feel like jello and my arms like lead. The results are worth it: I'm stronger, though I'll never be a bodybuilder, and I'm stronger in places I have never been before in my entire 56 year life. It's pretty cool. Perfect Workout is not cheap. You can train less expensively many other places. Those trainers may or may not be as good, and you don't really know better until you've trained better. The other thing I love is that my training with Kristi is highly personalized and a dialogue. Sometimes she will think my muscle is at fail, and I know it's not, so I push it. Other times I slip into an old habit and she corrects it right away. It's quite productive. It's been 10 months since I started, and I am still committed and look forward to my workout. For me, it's 100% worth the expense as I'm getting far more out of each session than I ever have before.
