I love this gym! I've been a member of several types of gyms in the past - hole in the wall gyms, close to work gyms, and luxury gyms. But this FC location is by far my favorite! It has huge windows on two sides of the gym, so it lets in tons of sunlight - I always hate working out in dimly lit gyms - especially at night. It's also great because it has an indoor walking track on the second floor that is perfect for walking on something other than a treadmill - and in all kinds of weather! The staff is all super nice! I take my kids with me on weekends and it's perfect because they can hang out in the free kids club while I get my workout in. And they're not just parked in front of a tv in there - they have their own basketball court, coloring stations, and iPads too. The gym is clean. The staff is helpful. And they have tons of equipment, so that crazy after work rush when everyone works out doesn't effect my workout at all. I'm always able to get the equipment I need and not have to wait! This is the cheapest I've ever paid for a gym membership ($10 per month) and it's worth ten times this much! read more

This Jim needs to be updated. The only update they've done so far is painted. You got over 12 lights out. They don't have training sleds like it most other gyms. The kettle bells are not complete. Set half them are missing. They've got like three different brands of machines with duplicate machines rather than having a variety. They have a class in sales rep area. It is not needed. That could be more floor space The staff is great though.. They've got crunch fitness and EOS fitness just minutes away. They blow this location away.. it's time for some serious upgrades at this location read more

Fitness Connection at 20761 Gulf Fwy gets the job done if you're looking for a budget-friendly gym with a good variety of equipment and decent space. There's a solid selection of machines, free weights, and plenty of room for cardio or functional workouts. Staff is generally helpful, and I rarely have to wait long for equipment even during peak times. read more

I called on December 2nd to cancel my membership. I understand I was charged on December 1st, which is fine. However, the representative informed me that because I didn't call on the 1st, I will still be charged again on January 1st, and my membership will not end until January 31st. I asked if the January charge could be waived since I will not be using the gym, but was told it could not. This means I'm being billed for two full months of membership after requesting cancellation. read more

I was told Fitness Connection is all about the numbers and business. No consideration of clientele. In just a few weeks they have all new staff but one person. Who does that? No wonder they fear EOS being right down the street. Great facility poor leadership. read more

I enjoyed this location a lot because there is a women's gym. The staff was ok and did run into a billing issue that should have never occurred but it was resolved swiftly with the help of customer service via phone. Gym was well maintained and women's sauna was clean. I also felt safe while working out in the women's gym. read more

I have been to gyms all over the country. I travel a lot and want to stay on a routine. This is the one and only gym I have ever been to that charges more than a year's membership to work out for 3 days. Planet fitness will give you a free week and after that it is only $10 a month, cancel anytime. I used to come here every year and it was always free for the week. Definitely not coming back with all the gyms and fitness classes around in the area. They also raised their yearly membership. Explains why the gym is always empty now. read more

My sister and I were in town visiting my mother for her 65th birthday and she wanted to share her experience of Zumba class with us while we were here. She goes everyday to this gym and has a lifetime membership with them that allows 2 guests free so we showed up excited to check out the class. They denied us access to the class because we were not local residents and tried to charge us $25/person for a guest pass. They said their policy/insurance doesn't cover guests that aren't local. I'm not sure if this is accurate or not but I dont understand the difference of us being a guest that doesn't pay verse a guest that does and how that legally changes the insurance coverage. It doesn't seem right. A year ago I was able to go for the same class at the same location with the same instructor with my mom as a guest and had no issues. It was fun and I got a good workout. It's unfortunate that this time my sister and I couldn't have a similar experience and fulfill my mom's birthday wish to share this experience. The manager didn't even bother to check her membership to confirm. All the issues caused her to miss part of the class as well. As someone who has a similar role in customer service I know there are ways to handle this situation better which is why I'm disappointed. If you are considering a membership with this gym I strongly recommend finding a different gym if you ever want to bring a guest. read more

For many folks that have been in the Clear Lake area for the last 20 years, this is the old Bally Total Fitness. That being said, for the price of a membership, you get a good range of amenities. Sauna, basketball court, indoor track, indoor cycling as well as Les Mills and Zumba group classes. It's generally very busy, but they have multiple duplicate pieces of strength training on th first floor as well as a women's only workout/cardio area. The 2nd floor has free weights, tons of cardio equipment and a circuit style hydraulic resistance area. Overall for the price, it's a great deal. read more

Rudest and most untrustworthy staff I've encountered at any gym in decades of attendance. Stay far away from this shady chain , there were literally 3 other people trying to cancel during my hopefully final visit to do the same. Stay away from these thieves. read more

Fitness Connection GYM ARE THIEVES I am not one to come and bash anybody... if anything, I try and promote any business or restaurant I've been to and I believe would be beneficial for others to know about. But Fitness Connection on 45... that's a whole other story. I joined them... I want to say summer of 2021 I believe, I was trying to get healthy again and after going and checking out some local gyms, they "seemed" like the best bang for my buck... little did I know that the best bang would be to my bank account months after leaving the gym. In May of this year I decided to cancel my membership, I wanted to join a gym closer to home, that was open 24 hrs. First I tried to call and see if I could cancel my membership over the phone, but the lady that answered, said I had to go cancel in person. So I did... I went into the gym the next day and spoke to a dark haired girl... skinny... caucasion... I WISH I had asked for her name... never did I think I had to. Anyhow... I told her I was there to cancel my membership and she said not a problem. I gave her my information, she got on the computer and after a few minutes, she said it was done and I said thank you and went about my way. Well... fast forward to October of this year, I just so happen to open my bank statement and lo and behold... I see a charge for a monthly membership fee for Fitness Connection. When I first saw it, I figured it had to have been a mistake or something... so I went back to check my previous monthly statements and what do I find... you may ask yourself... FITNESS CONNECTION NEVER STOPPED BILLING MY ACCOUNT!!! They had been charging me a monthly membership fee non-stop... as if I had never stopped going there. 5... WHOLE... MONTHS... after I went in, in person and cancelled my account. So of course... what would anybody do in that situation? I call Fitness Connection to find out what exactly is going on. I call and I explained to the gentleman that answered what happened and he said let me check it out... after a few moments he said (and I quote), "it looks like she might have started the process of canceling your account, but never finished it..." Honestly... I was dumb founded... I was like huh? What do you mean the process was started but never finished?!?! He said that's what it looked like and that I'd have to talk to a manager... so he has me speak to Elijah... the "club manager". One would think that a "CLUB MANAGER" could actually correct something and refund me all my money they had stolen from me... but noooo... Elijah basically says... there isn't anything I can do about it, call customer service. So I do... And after waiting for over 30 mins each time... because there were multiple calls made, customer service said that becasue the process wasn't finished to cancel my account, then there is nothing they can do to refund me my money. I told them and I've told Elijah to check the security cameras... they will see me walk in and talk to the girl in the front. NOW... if she didn't do her job and still said it was done, how is that my fault? I did everything they asked me to do. Well that was in October... I went in there and talked to Elijah in person... I called day after day to wait on him getting responses from his district manager and when he finally did... it was a basic... screw you... we won't be giving you a refund. But... this is where it just plainly got insulting... They apparently "cancelled my account... AGAIN..." last month when they said the process hadn't been finished back in May. So this time they "actually closed my account"... or so I thought. YESTERDAY... November 1, 2022... I so happen to open my bank statement again... and WHAT DO I FIND??? FITNESS CONNECTION HAS CHARGED ME AGAIN!!! After last months fiasco... I was just going to write it off and let it go. But now... it's just insulting... a smack in the face. So I have now decided I'm going to take it upon myself to let anybody and everybody know about what they do there when you try to cancel your membership and to be wary before signing up at Fitness Connection. Other than that... have yourself a very wonderful rest of your day. read more

Always clean. Multiple equipment for each exercise very spacious. Also has an indoor track

I go almost every day. Very clean and the people there are nice. I like the private area for women to workout. Love the body pump class that Karen gives. read more

This is definitely the best Fitness Connection I've been to so far. I went around 2:00p and left before the 5:00p crowd started to arrive. The setup is pretty awesome and I really enjoyed the indoor track (I get bored on the treadmill sometimes). The other locations are usually pretty crowed and sometimes I'm waiting on a machine, but not at this location and probably because I went during a less crowded time. There are plenty machines, a nice size sauna compared to the other locations and the theater room in the women's workout area was super awesome. So far my only dislike is the request for a neck pad. If you need a neck pad for the barbell area you have to give your ID to the front desk. I don't walk around the gym with my ID and I didn't want to stop my workout to go get it out of my locker (I was in my zone). Also, they don't offer yoga :-( and I assume because it's a fairly new gym. Overall, the gym is pretty cool and I would highly recommend it. NOTE: I'm curious to know why none of the FC locations have a pool. Water aerobics is a great workout. read more

Great gym to go to, signed up under a good deal only paying about $15 a month. Great amenities, especially recommend for a young woman into lifting who's looking to experience more of a big girl gym, without the intimidation of everyone around as they have the woman only section. Had to give a 4 star instead of 5 however, due to no massage machines like you may find at smaller gyms. But great nonetheless!! read more

Caller #55 in a phone line full of people specifically trying to cancel. For sales, they will tell you that they've waived their annual fee, but it is never waived. Charges : DOWNPAYMENT $20-$30 : First month PRORATED $20-$30 :SECOND MONTH $22-$32 :Annual Fee $53 DOWNPAYMENT is never truly waived because they count it toward your final non refundable month at the gym. You're welcome. After writing this review, I am caller number #52. read more

I was a member of 24 hour fitness and planet fitness. I enjoyed planet fitness and appreciate the cleanliness and the great staff, but they didn't have much options for equipment. I left 24 hour because the gym was filthy, the staff was incompetent and everything was broke (they are now closed). Fitness Connection has lots of equipment that is in good repair. They gym is clean and staff is great. You can't beat the price!! read more

I was waiting for this fitness connection locations to open for a few months. I was kinda just gym hopping, I couldn't find one that I really liked. FINALLY this one opened up and it's been my go-to gym since. It looks like they completely gutted the old gym that was here, they got rid of the pool! That's probably the only negative thing I have to say about the gym itself. Everyone has been super friendly and not overbearing like some places. Theres another gym close by that the trainers are like used car salesman, they HOUND you down trying to get you to use the personal trainer service. This fitness connection has the personal trainers, but they leave you alone for the most part. Ive only gotten spoken to once by one and he was just asking about the Houston Weightlifting shirt I was wearing that day. There are plenty of machines and free weights to use, Ive not had to wait to use anything. Upstairs is the track and cardio machines. Again, there are plenty of those too, no waiting to use any equipment. The spin studio is also upstairs, I swear I almost died taking a spin class, so I won't be doing that at this gym. The Zumba classes are downstairs next to the women's gym. I was really pleasantly surprised with the amount of equipment in there. It pretty much covers an all body workout. My kids LOVE the daycare area at this location. It has a bunch of ipads for them to use, a basketball court, and even a movie room with theater like seating. The ladies in there already know my kids and the kids are pretty comfortable in there. The hours on the weekends could be a little better, it would be nice if they opened later than 8pm on Saturday and Sunday. Also, if you sign a month to month contract, you will need 30 day notice to cancel. I think that's pretty standard and not that big of a deal. The entitlement of some people and them thinking it shouldn't apply to them is outrageous. Just take the free 5 day pass before doing this. It's not that difficult. read more

I workout after work (6:20-7:45). The gym is always packed. The gym etiquette is not great here. Men won't unload their weight after their sets, forcing me to take multiple 45 plates off. They have 4 squat racks in the entire gym, and rarely can you get a spot on them due to gym etiquette. Female bathrooms smell pretty bad. Worst gym membership experience yet. Positives: The machine options are decent (if available) and the staff is very friendly. read more

There's absolutely nothing I can say bad about this gym! I actually love it. Recently joined because other gyms were just horrible. The restrooms, showers, women's workout area and over all the entire gym is clean. I live how they have a women's area so we can workout just in case men take over upper body equipment. Majority of people do wipe down before and after each use. Love the track upstairs and boxing area they have in second floor. Overall this gym is pretty good. read more

I am from Pasadena area therefore I go to the one on Spencer. I am not one to compare but I can say this location feels so great and welcoming. Front desk were interacting with me and compliment on my anime shirt. They are so wholesome. This place is clean and I am happy that there's a squat rack in the women's locker. Tons of machines. 10/10 experience. read more

Love it! Very clean! Just met with Frankie (trainer) to figure out what routine would suit me best & to try a few things to start my program. He really listened to me & had me doing things specifically for the areas I wanted. He was encouraging yet pushed me to give it my all! He was fabulous! When I left,I asked the guy @ the desk if he would mind watching me walk to my car because of all the crazies in our world. Instead of just watching me, he actually walked me to my car. It's nice to know that they actually care about their patrons. read more

Excellent gym. I love the staff, the size, the indoor trac...everything. The only thing that sucks is that I had to move away and find a less awesome gym. read more

It's one of the better gym I go to. The place used to be a Bally's Fitness and Blast Fitness. I like how they stylized and freshed up the place that used to be so dull and dim. My first gym was Fitness Connection Pasadena so this one is much closer to me now! I was with the second Blast Fitness but it had closed down. I only knew that Blast was transferring all of their clients to Fitness Connection by their website and a notice taped to their closed doors. Honestly, I'm glad I got transfered into this gym since everything was new and I had past experience with the company. For $10/month, it's a good deal for what they offer. For better deals, try waiting for the $0-$10 initial/enrollment fee and $10/month before applying (instead of $140 initial fee). Like most gyms, there will be an annual fee and ask about those (ranging $30-$60 per year). Upsides: 1. The equipment is new and up-to-date 2. The weights are reracked and the dumbbells don't go missing/misplaced 3. Indoor track upstairs 4. Women's room has their own personal equipment and a theater room full of cardio machines 5. Great, stylized mirror/sink area in the locker rooms. 6.Each locker room has a sauna 7. Basketball court 8. The group exercise room is beautiful, spacious, and full of equipment. 9. There are spray bottles and trashcans available so it's a huge bonus when people clean after using the equipment. Overall, the place is usually clean. 10. So many treadmills, stair masters, and spin bikes upstairs. There is no wait. Downsides: 1. It isn't 24 hours 2. Weekend hours (ends at 8pm) are shorter to the weekdays (ends at 12pm) 3. No pool if you're into that 4. Not enough power cages and squat racks to go around What could make this review a 5 star rating: -More power cages and squat racks with platforms on the main floor Maybe an additional +1 of each? There are four benches but only one power cage and two squat rack platforms that can be also used for dead lifting. While Blast Fitness had two cages, a designated dead lift area, and four squat racks. It would help with squatting/dead lifting for others to be more available since those sets can take awhile. read more

The Latina chick with curly hair is rude af. How tf did she even get the job. Oh yeah she probably lied on her resume and faked her personality on the interview. I'm- shook. I love coming here due to the massive amount of equipment they have but I cancelled because they force you to wear your mask and gloves which I think is pointless. Mask is understandable. Wearing your gloves is equivalent to using your bare hands. If I cough on my gloves and touch the equipment, does that not transfer germs to it? You're better off wiping down the equipment before and after use. This is why I am at planet fitness. Plus there isn't a mean unprofessional young adult lady with curly hair working here. read more

I love the gym but i hate the hours on weekends! They close at 8 pm on weekends but theres people who dont get off work till 7 pm and by the time i get there, they are shoving people out the door. If i knew this, i would of never joined. UPDATE: This place just opened up and now here comes the problems. They over charged my daughter inlaw 300 dollars and today they overcharged every member. They made my bank account overdrawn! Thanks,jerks! They wont let you drop autopay or change your due date. THIS IS BULLSHIT read more

I like the equipment and the staff but a major down side is the hours. It used to be 24/7 prior to COVID which was 5 star worthy. Recently left this gym because hours did not allow me to go when I was able to. read more

To hell with Fitness connection!!!! They took my temperature "which is fine" but then tried to force me to wear gloves which I didn't have so they tried to force me to buy 10 cent rubber gloves for 5$ just to go workout!!! Do these I****s truly not understand that 1. We are a free nation not a communists one. 2. That everything you touch with gloves is the same as touching it with your hands unless we change them every 5 seconds. This business is ran by bloody idiots!!!!! Cancelled mine and my wife's membership. Screw these anti American socialists!!!!! read more

Not clean, no COV19 precautions, members not wearing mask and no soap in the showers. Men's restroom nasty

The gym itself isn't the worst one I've ever seen, but it's not sanitized properly and not clean. Then I called to cancel because of Covid, and I got 2 very rude people who just read from a piece of paper that they won't refund an entire year of membership even though it was cancelled and won't be used. The girl on the phone even tried blackmailing me to get me to keep my membership. All they care about is their money. read more

My experience with FC was great. Over 4 years, and at 3 locations, they provided affordable and clean access to quality gym equipment, classes, and amenities. This location in particular had a great community, awesome equipment, good RTD selection, and is going to great lengths to reduce member exposure to COVID-19. While the policies entailed are not for me, it is good that those at greater risk and who are more cautious have a place to exercise. Keep chasing fitness goals together! read more

Apparently-unlike any other fitness facility you can't go into a location or call over the phone to cancel your membership. Nope. In 2020 they want you to write a letter, put a stamp on it, and put a letter in the mail. In the meantime they bill you for an additional month. Insane. Totally unethical business and absurd business practices. When I pointed it out to their customer service then called the local club to complain I was told in condescending tone that I could find the address on the back of my membership contract. Really? You think I would have hung on to a piece of paper that was such a minimal fee every month? Then even though I can't cancel the membership over the phone-she gave me the address. What a racket! Judging from her absolute indifference I'd say she gets this a lot and could care less. Do not get a membership here. You truly do get what you pay for. read more

Hello! This review highlights one of the most hardworking, insightful, and well-rounded personal trainers - Brittany Tombrella. When I first became interested in Fitness Connection in Clear Lake, TX, I was looking for someone who could match my ambition to always go above and beyond my limitations. One of my main priorities was to improve my overall strength and gain more confidence to trust my body while pursuing the process of healing from an ACL/meniscus injury. I discussed all my goals and expectations with the fitness manager, Carlos, as he had the perfect match in mind. To this day, Brittany has conveyed her knowledge and demonstrated her expertise in her craft. She is patient and very willing to teach anyone about nutrition as it can be overwhelming at times. Brittany is extremely detail-oriented as she breaks down information on how the body works. For example, she always confirms that I am using the correct form and that my breathing habits are benefiting me while I'm lifting weights. She also underlines the importance of stretching after exercise. It has only been about a month of training with Brittany, but this has been the best decision and self-investment I have ever made. I can already notice a difference in my overall strength especially in connection to my injury. I gain more confidence every single day and am motivated to attend my sessions to keep improving. I am so excited to continue this journey, especially with a top-notch trainer who is also immensely supportive of me reaching my goals. Thank you so much, Brittany! :-) read more

Horrible Customer relations; the staff is condescending and unprofessional (they've not there to help justvto talk!)

Alright i'm not a big reviewer, but fitness connection is great at taking your money and then telling you to fuck off. I canceled my membership after i lost my job during covid. They tell me you account will be shut down after 30 days. They bill be for that month, and then the annual fee. They took $50 straight out of my account. If you live on a fixed income don't go here, they will take your money and then tel you there's nothing they can do about it. Don't get me wrong it's a nice easy gym. But these guys are just doing whatever it takes to squeeze ever last dime out of you. read more

Great customer service all the employees are nice and great conversationalist never had any problems here
