I've only been to two gyms on post and Soto gym is definitely not number two! They have two floors,…read morefirst floor is the weight lifting or basketball area, second floor is strictly cardio. The greatest part about this gym is that it is open on the weekends and holidays! So if your looking for a workout during any holiday then this gym is for you! Must have a military ID or if you're not in the military have a visitors pass to get on post, also 100% ID upon entering the gym. With that being said for my military folks you can wear civilian clothes during pt hours at the gym.

One of the best military gyms in the area. Large selection of equipment (selector, plate, and free…read moreweight). Open floor plan. Second level has cardio and rubberized indoor track with lanes. Dry sauna. Showers and lockers. Not much for recovery area though unless one of those rooms upstairs is hiding something. What's in those rooms??

I called and left messages with staff with name and number with no return called. I was leaving the state and needed to cancel my membership. Do to staff not contacting me back in a reasonable amount of time, over 30 days. (also, I was not able to go to the building, I had left the state, by the time I was working with staff). I received a from the billing company (and as of today 4 months as well). requesting money. I had gone to my bank and stop payments. Staff's excuse for not replying to me is that they get to many emails and calls. I worked with staff to make a one time payment. but she requested my military contract of departed the local area. Which has my SSN. I informed I was pending the document to my system. made that last payment and as of the week, i have noticed that the gym was still chagrining me. their billing company is not leaving messages. I had paid for over 6 months not going into the gym. But man, when they want their money, they want their money. The Billing staff does not follow their business values and mission statement. I had to cancel payments with my other bank to have them stop. The staff member i was working did agree with me make a one-time payment more than the normal monthly payment to close the account. and text me she would only close the account ones i give her military documents, that again have my SSN, and she does not need to stop my monthly payment.

Always wanted join again after I went to this gym 4 years ago. I finally did it today!! My journey…read moreto be a bad a$$ starts today. This classes makes me feel empowered and strong just in case I ever get attacked. Also, I want to grow old as a women that is strong and fit. Not flabby and hunch over. 3 classes a week is my goal. They have athletic strength aka yoga Kickboxing, boxing, sparing and jiujutsu. Classes are at 8:00, 12:00, 5:30, 6:30 and 7:00 or 7:30. Coaches were positive and didn't make me feel incompetent.

I was able to tour and take a class at this gym during its reopening ceremony, and it reminded me…read morehow out of shape I am. They offer many different classes including boxing, kickboxing, and MMA. What I really like about the instructors is that actually have competed in tournaments, so they know what they are doing. These classes are a full body workout, so be prepared to sweat.

Not only is there a cardio section, machine and free weight areas, there is a smoothie bar, a cinema to catch movies and do some cardio. There is also a separate room for group fitness sessions.

Milam Physical Fitness Center... or better yet, Milam Gym. This gym is kinda like an "old trusty"…read moreplace. Very small, very old (it, along with Stout, are two of the ORIGINAL Ft Bliss Fitness Centers) and has the bare minimum of what you will need in a gym. Located alllmmmooosssstttt on the corner of Cassidy and Jeb Stuart, its more so on Cassidy (same street as Stout gym just MORE towards the PX). Its also super near a church, and the church, is for sure right at the stop light of Cassidy and Jeb Stuart. Its not super easy to spot though, as it doesnt look super big and impressive from the outside like all the other fitness centers on post. Full court, wooden floored, basketball court. Small, but useable locker rooms with toilets and showers for both men and women. Small weight room with and even smaller cardio section. Few TVs here and there, maybe a water fountain or two. I mean the gym has everything you NEED to workout or play basketball. Again, it just aint as fancy as the other very modern and state of the art fitness centers here on Ft Bliss. What does this gym get used for the most? Unit level stuff. I play on a BN basketball team, and our leagues games (Jan-Mar) are all held in this gym at night. 3 Games per night starting at 1800 and ending around 2100. Also, every APFT (Army Physical Fitness Test) i have taken or participated in by grading since reporting here over a year ago, has been conducted there at Milam Gym. Our Brigade "Schools APFT" is often also hosted here in mornings. First come first serve basis in the early morning, so APFT will usually start around 0530 and if you get there and get set up around 0500, usually have the whole basketball courts to yourselves.. Nice deal. 100% ID check when you enter the facility. Remember that. Oh yea... speaking of all the things this place DOESNT have, I forgot to mention one more thing its lacking....... PEOPLE! :) Thats right.. wanna workout or shower after work or shoot some hoops in peace (or relatively peaceful)... Milam is your destination.... well.... wait.. sh*t... dont read that. What I meant was OMG NO MILAM IS SOOOOOOO packed... never go there... any of you... ever. Stay away. Go to a different gym. Youre welcome. Das It Mayne

I was excited to learn Pure Barre opened two locations in El Paso since my last visit here in 2017…read more My sister-in-law lives very close to this Kern Place location and is a regular. She was able to get me a free trial while I am visiting here for Memorial Day weekend/to celebrate my nieces' birthdays. We came here three times already! Friday and today we took the classic class, with Erica Friday and Heather today. We took owner Salina's empower class on Saturday. The workout is very challenging but the instructors were motivating and corrected my wonky posture as needed. They seemed to know all clients' names and called out compliments to people by name throughout the class. The studio is spacious and clean. On Friday, we got free wine after the class! I also got free scented epsom salt as a newbie. I definitely was sore after each class! This is a nice community of women and a great addition to the area!

I love Pure Barre and this is an amazing studio! Joey and Salina (the owners) are fantastic…read moreinstructors and are very welcoming to everyone! This studio offers three different classes: classic pure barre; empower (which is more of a cardio workout); and reform (which is more Pilates based and incorporates resistance tubes). I love all three classes. The regular barre class incorporates small movements where you use your own body weight as resistance and then you stretch intermittently throughout class. I've always loved fitness but Pure Barre is by far my favorite work out! Plus, the people at this studio are amazing! I can honestly say being at the barre is my happy place. If you are even the tiniest bit curious, check it out! Worst case scenario you will get an amazing workout. Best case scenario it will change your life! This studio, in my opinion, also boasts the best work out retail in the city! Check it out :)

Ironworks Gym East in Fort Bliss also know as Mission Essential Fitness "MEF"…read more Is located off Anzio way in East Bliss. Its a large well set large heavy duty tent with an outstanding AC and lots of Cross Fitness equipment along with a few treadmills. Yes, many staff here don't like it when we state that essentially it is a cross fitness facility but it is. Iron Works East is open from Monday to Friday from 0600-1800 hrs with guided 45 minutes unit training available at 0630. If you are planning to bring your squad/platoon/company here for pt please call ahead and make a reservation; this is very important so they can have the appropriate number of staff available to guide and train appropriately. I have always had a very positive experience; the staff is knowledgeable, helpful and patient. All troops must have their CAC card to enter. I do wish they had "cubies" where one can leave cell phone and water bottle etc.

This place is also commonly known as the MEF or Mission Essential Fitness. I come here most…read moreafternoons during my lunch break to do the 30-station work out they have on the board. Its a great workout that only lasts 45 minutes and helps keep your cardio up when you're tired of running everyday which the army loves for some reason. With that being said, the gym is just alright. The equipment they have is geared towards cross fit/Olympic lifts which is great and is really all you need for a good workout. What this place needs, however, is a snack bar that you can buy shakes or food from after your workout. As it stands, it's purely a gym and that's it. The speakers they have are dated and it's obvious they are on their last leg; they need to be updated. Also, the bathrooms - especially the showers - need to be cleaned more regularly. The place appears to be old and run down when the facility honestly isn't that old. It's the failure to maintain the facility which gives off the appearance of it being old. The main guy at the front desk in the mornings - Jon - is extremely helpful and friendly and will gladly explain any exercise you have questions about. He's also the guy you talk to if you're interested in "competing" for the 1,000lb club. All in all, I enjoy coming here as I get a great afternoon workout during my lunch break. Hit the MEF!!
