My wife and I rejoined this gym after being gone for a year and a half. we had joined UFC Fitness before they sold out to Crunch fitness. I joined Fitness connection before they had even officially opened many years ago. it's been a slow and steady decline over the years to the point that it is not worth our time to even attempt to workout there. bathtooms are dirty. my wife said the women's bathroom is disgusting and has sinks broken and trash everywher. the amount of kids under 18 on the gym floor is overwhelming. from 4-8 M-F, you will have a very difficult time getting ANY kind of workout in. Their big ceiling fans were broken all summer until last week. if this gym was free, I would be hard pressed to want to go there. I could go on and on, but what is the point? don't join this place. it gets worse every month.

Staff is rude, place is generally dirty and equipment in a state of disrepair. Take your business else where.

Do you have a pool? Thanks.

Hi! Thank you for asking about our amenities. While we don't have a pool at this club, we do have a hot sauna, turf training and many other amazing features for our members to use.

I was wondering if this gym has stairmasters?

Yes.

Are there showers in the women's locker room at this location?

Yes there are.

Does this location have bumper plates or Olympic plates used for cleans and snatches?

Hi Sherwin, Thank you for your interest in Fitness Connection. We do not have bumper plates or Olympic plates at this location. We do have a large variety of free weight… Read more

I love the girls only section and the fact that you do not need to share a sauna with guys.

I have been a member of Lifetime Fitness for over 20 years (based at the Plano and Allen…read morefacilities) For a place that calls itself an "Athletic Country Club" with the continually increasing prices to match, this place does not live up to the moniker. In particular, as a customer of the Allen Spa I have never understood why the spa did not have it's own bathroom facility. Massages, facials, and hair appointments frequently take a while. It is reasonable that someone would want to use the restroom before, during or after a service. The idea that you have to walk across the entire facility to the locker rooms for their 5 aged and sad looking stalls in the ladies locker room seemed ridiculous and potentially embarrassing. So the "brilliant" answer was using the much closer "family" bathroom in the "family" locker room. That was workable, but certainly not a great answer. And now they have decided that Spa clients are no longer allowed to use the "family" bathroom. I do not know the real reasons why, but I assume it has something to do with not being a "family." Locked out! So we are now fully expected to trek our foiled, caped and oily bodies across the very large and very public facility to those previously mentioned locker rooms. I know of no country club that would expect its members to parade around in such a manner, nor inconvenience their hard working stylists and therapists with a bathroom so very far away. I really wish the Lifetime would fix this situation. It makes visiting the Spa stressful rather than Zenlike and peaceful....which is how a spa should feel.

I will NEVER go to this location again. If only the the rest of the staff was as friendly as the…read morefront desk staff. I trained with Anna Hubbard and honestly she is probably the rudest person I have ever came into contact with. She didn't pay attention to me while I was performing an exercise, she made rude and amuse comments about OTHER members (almost making fun of the way they were exercising), and she had this whole attitude towards me like she was BETTER than me. I first thought it was my imagination but after speaking with several other members regarding my experience they only CONFIRMED my HORRIBLE experience. I never give bad reviews but after almost leaving in tears because she commented on my weight and how there was no wonder why I am the size I am, I will NEVER be visiting this location again.

Here's to me checking off another great Crunch Fitness location near me!…read more I really like the layout of this gym. The cardio, ride, and group fitness rooms are located upstairs, while all the weight and muscle-building machines are on the ground floor. This location has more wipes than both the East Plano and Plano gyms combined--which is amazing! Usually, I have to walk across all the treadmills to grab a wipe, but here, there were 3 cleaning stations within just one row of treadmills. I decided to try out Zumba here since it started 30 minutes earlier than my usual 7pm class, and it was great. The group fitness room is amazing; it was super spacious with powerful AC. I loved how cool the room stayed despite how sweaty we were. The instructor, Stephanie, is very interactive with the class as well. Great location!

My fitness obsession had me wondering what Crunch Fitness was all about, so I stopped by for a…read morepeek. The front desk guy was friendly and spent way more time with me than expected. He walked me through all the goodies: weights, recovery center, sauna, fitness classes and a bunch more, all bundled into different membership packages. I was suprised learn it costs about the same as a cute TJ Maxx outfit or a full tank of gas if you're feeling like getting the full membership. And get this: you can bring a friend for free every single visit. Love that Crunch Fitness thought of this built-in gym buddy system, nice idea! I've got a few of friends who rave about how much they enjoy their membership. They say it's a great place to network with other business professionals or just vibe with likeminded fitness folks. I didn't sign up today because I'm checking if my UHC insurance might cover it (I might already be a member and not know it). But if you're thinking about it, I recommend joining! Look at their Yelp offer and take advantage of their one day pass to see if it fits your vibe.

I'm the…read moretype that can get burnt out after a while of doing the same thing but what I love about Circuit 31 is that Adam changes up the workout every day, keeping it interesting and as challenging as you want. My son now loves going too and it's perfect for his using the free weight area. What keeps me going to this gym and keeps me working out: 1. Easy no appt or class time necessary... just jump in 2. The fun tabata-style circuit is changed out daily and focuses on different body types 3. It's an all-level workout so you make it as challenging as you want and let's face it some days I don't feel like doing it but that brings me to this next... 4. It's only 30 ish minutes! You DO have the time and it feels great to workout even on those days that are tough 5. Last but not least Adam has a vast amount of knowledge and is a trainer so he or a team member will show you how to do the exercises properly or how to modify if you have an injury. 6. Actually I lied and one more :-) This is a locally owned gym in Allen so I'm happy to show support and EVERY time I walk in they greet me by name and are all so incredibly friendly. I'd give them more stars if I could! *********

I was in town for the week looking for a gym to work out at. I reached out and Adam was so…read moregracious and allowed me to work out here. He made sure that I knew how the circuit worked. Great full body workout!! I would definitely join this gym if I lived here. Josie G.

I had a nice experience at this gym! I'm exploring boxing gyms in the area and this one got me…read morepretty sore the next day! You get split into two groups if the group is larger- team 1 on the bags, team 2 on the side turf. Jerome was the instructor (and the owner here), and is very patient with new people and just correcting form in general. People tend to lose their form when they get tired (myself def included), and he was there mainly at the bags helping my friends and I out and making sure we weren't approaching it in a poor fashion. I believe most of the people here are regulars, so its got a pretty "familial" feel. My one note is about the cleanliness- the gloves stink! I'd bring my own and get past that though. You can get a better deal if you buy packages at the Jym directly instead of online, so call ahead!

This is the best workout I've ever had in my life, hands down! I found out about this place from my…read moremom because she had purchased a Groupon online. I decided to check it out because I was looking for a more intense workout, on top of the swim classes already take. I signed up for a one-day free class, and I was absolutely hooked! This is a full body workout and you will get a really, REALLY, good sweat. If you decide to continue beyond the one day free trial, there is a 30 day intro option which is about $39. If you decide to do it continuously it's about $60 a month. Yes, you heard me right! You get a quality work out AND it's affordable. I've tried doing title boxing and I love kickboxing, but their prices are insanely high for the average spender. Once you're signed up classes are unlimited, and you can pretty much come anytime during the week when they're open. Jerome is the instructor/owner and he's really good about helping you get going. DON'T feel intimidated. There are people of all levels in the classes, the most important thing is to keep moving and to keep hitting the bag. If you can't do a certain exercise you can always alternate it for something else. I like it because it's not all boxing, but other exercises incorporated into it as well. I definitely recommend you give this a try. If you don't feel the class is for you, then don't worry. There will be no one trying to harass you into buying something you don't want. I plan to continue on a monthly basis. :)
