I did a 12-week online coaching program with UEF back in 2019. I wanted to share my experiences…read morehere in case anyone else was interested in trying this program. I will say up top that I did not finish the program due to some issues I will get into below. However, I wanted to give my totally honest review as there are definitely some pitfalls to this type of a program. Counting macros gave me serious anxiety. I use a lot of marinades, seasoning, etc. when I cook, and my meals often have lots of ingredients. It was stressful to say the least to have to calculate macros for each element of my meal at every meal. It took out all of the joy of cooking. I wasn't able to enjoy dinner with my family, the one meal we share, because I was just so focused on weighing and calculating what I was eating. This is not UEF's fault, but it took me trying this method out to realize it was not for me. Being in a calorie deficit is the only way to lose weight; there are many different ways to achieve that and counting macros was not the way for me. At the outset of this program I was two months postpartum and breastfeeding, which I disclosed in my intake form. The calorie restriction caused my supply to decline precipitously, and at that point about two weeks in I gave up the macro counting, limiting myself only to the workout regimen in order to regain my supply. I emailed this to my coach that that's what I was doing, and asked if I could put a hold on my training and pick up when I could commit to both aspects. That part of the email went ignored, as he told me to continue as normal with the workout and we would adjust my macros. I really wish they could have been more accommodating on this front, as I paid for the coaching but was just unable to do the full program at that time for the reasons outlined above. I wish I had another opportunity to give it 100% when I was physically ready and not also trying to feed a child. Not a big deal, but each client is given an initial protocol spreadsheet after they first sign up. There were misspellings throughout the spreadsheet, including my name. I get that this is probably the most minor of things, but it definitely felt cookie-cutter and not like I was being evaluated based on my own intake form. It was almost like it was copied and pasted from someone else's sheet. Which brings me to my last point. While my coach was responsive throughout the process, it felt like my fitness journey wasn't taken too seriously since I wasn't embarking on a bodybuilding venture like a lot of their clients. I will 100% own the fact that you will get out of the process what you put into it, and at that time I was not ready to commit to the method of macro counting and I was also at a stage in my life that made dieting not ideal. This review is not a review of the results I did or did t get, but it is my impression of the process and program as a whole. However, it definitely seemed like UEF was more involved in the clientele that wanted to go to bodybuilding competitions. That impression has been further reinforced now that I have attended some other gyms/fitness clubs, where there is a real sense of community and encouragement no matter what your goals are.

They redid the gym, got rid of the powerhouse name, so now my day pass for visiting cost me $15 a…read moreday (no longer 5 free a year), they got rid of the pink walls thank God! But the idiots left the nasty carpet in the cardio area that's soaked with nasty sweat and stinks! Good job guys! Yuk! The bathroom luckily smells better than the gym! The shakes are nasty with fake ass peanut butter! But the counter girl was adorable! So you get an extra star!

This place recently opened in February! They have Bootcamp workouts 6 days a week (closed on…read moreSundays). They're having an offer right now where you can get 3 free workouts!! My friend and I tried it out today, we came at the 9:30 AM slot. There were only 3 other people in the class with us. The instructor Don, is absolutely amazing! He motivates you with humor, dancing, and whatever it takes to get you through the workout! The best thing about this Bootcamp is it's for all types of stamina and people who are at different points in their fitness journey. I love it because they modify the workout for you depending on where you are in your fitness journey. For example, we had to jump up on blocks and my friend Nikki struggles with it because she tore her ACL back in high school. Don was helping her stand up on the block instead of jumping on it. You start off with a 5 minute warmup and then go straight to the 20 minute Bootcamp and then a few minute cool down/stretches. It's super high energy and so much fun!! I absolutely love this place and I plan on buying a membership after my 3 free workouts!!

New location is pretty nice. It took some getting used to as the new layout is wide open with a…read moretrack circling it and the last location was very segmented. This lends itself to a more welcoming environment. Last location had a room that was strictly for weights. Just about everyone in there could have been described as having "muscle milk" as their personality. It was loud ragey metal music with lots of grunting and weight dropping. Other workout spaces were more chill but this one was particularly weird. Not so at the Oriskany Blvd. locale. Since everything has opened up it is a lot more chill- lots of different people all working out together, mellower music and overall a better vibe. The locker rooms are spare but nice and there is a sauna and showers. They have raised their prices but luckily I was grandfathered in at my original price I paid a few years ago. If you are not going to attend regularly than a $10/mo at Planet Fitness is a better option. Idk what the previous reviewer was complaining about. My membership was comped for 6 months when they were shut down due to covid.
