The entire team was warm and engaging from the very beginning. I've been working out with my trainer, Alex, for a little over 3 months now.

They work with all types of people, from beginners to experienced athletes. I've been really blown away and nothing but impressed by my time at Apex so far. I would encourage anyone considering personal training to go to Apex, hands down!

My review is of the 1-week trial for $20 offer…read more I responded to their ad running on Facebook and was quickly contacted by Amanda. She asked me some quick questions about my overall health/fitness, current work out types, and my overall fitness goals then signed me up to begin the following week. She also informed me that the week trial translated to three sessions. I showed up the next week for my 8am session and it was much like what I expected: an all-women, bootcamp style workout. We went through a warm up, partnered up for circuit training, and recorded our individual workouts on worksheets. Two days later, I returned for my second session, which was much like the first. The other ladies were super encouraging, but I just wasn't feeling it. I also didn't like that the instructor joked both times about how much tougher this workout probably was for me than the one I currently do. I know he was trying to be funny, but the jokes became overkill by the second session. Also, there was this awkward moment when I suddenly realized why men should wear compression underwear, especially if they're going to train a room full of women... I decided not to return for my third session.

InsideOut Gym

InsideOut is a cool gym. It's small and hidden, but I think members enjoy that about it…read more I visited once for a tour and another time on a guest pass to try out a TRX class. The gym was very clean, staff was welcoming, and you tell that folks really get to know each other. The TRX class was amazing! I think the instructor adjusted a bit for having a few newbies (which really pissed off one of the regulars. She groaned and complained for half the class... seriously) but that didn't mean it was easy. TRX classes are normally pretty pricey, so it's cool that members can attend these classes, along with yoga, spinning, rowing, and Zumba without paying additional fees. My cons are the size, weekend hours, and variety of classes. The gym is pretty small. I need a bit more room and maybe a sauna or pool. Also, the weekend hours are very condensed and I don't think I'm their target demographic with the classes offered. I'm more into HIIT, boot camp, and barre classes than spinning and rowing, which take up a big chunk of their class schedule. Classes must also be scheduled in person through sign up sheets and members can't register or cancel online. Overall, it's not for me, but I would recommend folks checking this place out. It's got a great central location and lots to offer if you're looking for a welcoming community.

A small gym means personal attention, people who know your name, accountability!!! It also means having to sign up for classes (which I don't mind, since it makes you accountable), and less equipment and space. When I signed up, I asked questions. I asked about busy times, I asked about slow times. I made sure that they would have equipment and space available to me when I needed it. I don't just sign up for gym memberships and not go...I have been at different hours on different days. I have never had a problem finding a piece of equipment to use. They have kettle bells, and machines, and medicine balls. They have small stretching rooms with foam rollers and ab rollers. I don't think there is anything that I lack in this gym. If you need a lot of space (for whatever reason), you would know that this is not the place for you when you walk in the door. BUT it's definitely bigger than you think it is. There are plenty of small rooms, and they will let you bring the weights into the small rooms if you would like :-) I think the most important thing you can take from this review...ask questions. Make sure you find the right gym for you!! Whatever that may be!
