New workout turf
Dennis X.

When it comes to the amount and type of equipment this gym has, it has it all! One of the best and largest gyms in the area, it also has a huge studio with a full schedule of many different classes (BodyPump, Zumba, Barre, Yoga for Mobility, to name a few). It also has a full sized indoor pool with swim classes and water aerobics classes. My favorite time to workout is between 1pm-4pm. I'm not much of a morning person, and after 4pm, it just gets WAY too crowded. They recently installed a workout turf in the middle of the gym with pull up stands and more squat racks, which has been a HUGE improvement to the gym, IMO. The only other thing that's missing from the gym is TOWEL SERVICE!! For such a huge gym and with an indoor pool, it's SUCH A SHAME that they don't provide towel service. If they ever come around to that, then you really won't need to go anywhere else to workout.

Used menstrual pad in the shower
katrina d.

I recently went to this location on 01/20/18, it was my 2nd time using this facility and what an experience. My first time actually going here was untidy but Patrick who was working was very pleasent. He was professional, good attitude despite it being 0600 am, and presented good customer service. This second time, omg! Im disgusted. I went in to take a shower & wow, it was absolutely gross! The girl on duty was very young, appeared really tired since it was 0645 am ish and just seemed not to be having a good morning. Each shower either had clumps of hair, what appeared to be dry hardened yellow stuff on the floor, hardened soap and a used womens menstrual pad! I informed the girl that was working tjat the showers are really dirty. she was washing her hands and replenishing the toiletries. She looked at me and in a irritated tone she responded, "yah, i know" and continued to replenish the paper towel dispenser and walked away. She doesn't seem to like her job. I didnt get her name, but when i go next and see her, ill update this review. In my opinion, this establishment is a business, your staff is a reflection of how your establishment is well managed. And by the cleanliness of this place, maybe managment should reevaluate and come up with better strategies for housekeeping needs & possibly look into cross training staff members. But most importantly, managment should emphasize to thier staff that, regardless of how you are feeling, when you are working, you are representing that establishment. I can understand all the negative reviews this gym gets.

Weight room is really large
Yumi W.

There is a large amount of equipment compared to the other two locations in Merced, but its drawbacks are that management can't keep up the maintenance and repairs, so there are a few broken machines here and there, also there aren't enough spray bottles and wipes to cover all of the equipment. The customers here are complacent about it too and never remove and rerack weights. I would give this place five stars if a lot of equipment wasn't a problem. I do like that I don't really have to wait on anyone to use the gym equipment though, I love that there's more than one squat rack. The lighting is great and it's never smelly, which are problems I have experienced at the other two locations, so I guess they have that going for them. Overall it's a good gym, but it could be a GREAT gym if management and other customers improved.

It literally smells like a giant fart when you walk in. Other than that it's a pretty standard gym. I give it two guttural noises out of 5.

been really impressed with the recent upgrades at In-Shape. The new lockers look modern and secure,…read morethe mirrors are much nicer and brighter, and the bathroom renovations make a big difference. Everything feels cleaner, updated, and more comfortable. It's clear the club is investing back into the members, and that doesn't go unnoticed. The improvements make the gym experience even better. Great job to the team.

While it's a cool place to workout, this place is THE BEST when it comes to being a sports complex!…read more This place used to be the Millenium Sports Complex before it was taken over by In-Shape, and you can definitely feel the sportiness. The gym has numerous tennis courts, racquetball courts, an indoor basketball court, a heated outdoor Olympic pool, a jacuzzi, saunas, AND towel service! The free-weights area doesn't get as crowded compared to other gyms and there's also a really cool outdoor adult playground for folks to focus on calisthenics. I love the vibe of this gym, the locker rooms are clean, and they have an awesome schedule of classes. (The water aerobics class on weekday mornings is the best for folks looking for mobility workouts.) They'll also occasionally have sports tournaments available for you to sign-up for, as well as Wellness events throughout the month. Don't forget to sign-up for the Fit Club on your app, which gives you points for being active (ie every time you check-in to the gym) that you can redeem for prizes!

I'm a massage therapist by trade and so I highly value my strength and keeping my body resilient…read morefrom any potential injuries because my livelihood relies on my body being at 100%. I moved to Merced during the pandemic and struggled to find a gym that I felt could be a place of community and a place where my trainer was passionate with helping me achieve my goals, until I met Justin. He is so knowledgeable with his movement anatomy that I always walk out of my sessions feeling strong rather than feeling beat up and depleted (but don't get me wrong- his workout will get your heart pumping and your body sweattttin!). He listens when you have injuries and very versed in giving you options for modification that produces the same results. I've been consistently going to his group training weekly for a few months now and I have felt such a difference in how I move my body at work. I'm not easily tired after working and see a progression in my strength in how I am carrying my body in space. I felt such a difference that my husband and brother in law are now consistently coming along! I highly recommend Justin's classes for anyone who is looking to improve their lifestyle and physical resilience- especially when your job requires hard labor- he will help you build your strength to keep your body's momentum. The location is very convenient downtown with tons of parking on the street or the back lot, they just did a glow up and the vibe inside the studio is energetic and empowering. See you next Thursday WPT! Thank you for what you do!

I bought a 4 class pass online, booked online, showed up for class, only for it to not exist…read more..... I've called, I've emailed, I've messaged on social media, and have had absolutely no luck. I just want a refund. My wife purchased the pass for Christmas and we have had absolutely no luck booking or getting a hold of anyone.
