Of all the terms people would use to describe me, "gym rat" is absolutely not one of them. I have…read morenever been someone who would spend hours in the gym "working out". So when FDC gave me a gift for 4 sessions with Perfect Workout, I went with a fair amount of skepticism. Why? Because the program is 1:1 training, with a goal of muscle 'failure' within 2 minutes on any exercise, total of 20 minutes workout 1-2 times a week. How could that possibly make a difference? Still, I went, way back in February, and I've been going ever since. Here's what I love: It is absolutely 20 minutes, no kidding. It's a seriously difficult workout for those 20 minutes. Training is 1:1. There are only two trainers and two people being trained at any time. The trainers are experts. Just because I am not a 'gym rat' does not mean I have never trained or 'worked out'. The difference is that the trainer is paying very close attention to my form, making tiny adjustments that mean I'm using muscles in ways I have never had to before. I learned that I had bad habits, the biggest of which was engaging my shoulders in place of other muscles such as my pectorals or biceps. The 20 minutes, no lie, they are HARD minutes. Everything hurts. By the end my legs feel like jello and my arms like lead. The results are worth it: I'm stronger, though I'll never be a bodybuilder, and I'm stronger in places I have never been before in my entire 56 year life. It's pretty cool. Perfect Workout is not cheap. You can train less expensively many other places. Those trainers may or may not be as good, and you don't really know better until you've trained better. The other thing I love is that my training with Kristi is highly personalized and a dialogue. Sometimes she will think my muscle is at fail, and I know it's not, so I push it. Other times I slip into an old habit and she corrects it right away. It's quite productive. It's been 10 months since I started, and I am still committed and look forward to my workout. For me, it's 100% worth the expense as I'm getting far more out of each session than I ever have before.

It's easy to miss this small women's only studio on a side street in Ardmore off Lancaster Ave, but…read moreI'm so glad I found it! I've been taking the group fitness classes here for about a year and a half now and I love them! The studio is clean and bright and has a wide variety of well-maintained equipment. The group strength classes are full body, and you hit all the muscle groups as you work through ten different stations. And I love that it's never the same class twice. There's always a new variety of exercises to challenge you and keep you from getting bored. I've taken class with several different trainers and they're all fabulous. Not only are they friendly and encouraging, but they're also very knowledgeable and attentive to proper form. But what I love most about coming here is the positive vibes I get in every class. Every person in every class is welcoming and encouraging no matter where you are in your fitness journey. I always leave the studio feeling stronger, happier, and more confident than when I walked in.

The new Life Time Fitness in the old Macy's building in Ardmore officially opened for business…read moreApril 27, 2018 and all I can say is... wow. It's beautiful. And buzzing with energy. It feels more like a social club than a health club. There are lots of seating areas to relax before or after a class, or just to socialize and catch up on email or chat with a coworker or friend. I took an intro to Pilates class and half of the "warrior sculpt" yoga class this morning and am now trying out a sandwich in their LifeCafe. It's actually very tasty. There is staff everywhere and they are all very friendly. Huge digital screens throughout the facility tell you what classes are coming up. There is a jacuzzi in the basement along with a sauna and steam room (no full-length pool), and the women's changing room is huge and lovely with lockers that come with built-in combination locks so you don't have to bring your own. The fourth floor is the LifeWork space where you can pay to be part of a co-working community or rent space for meetings, etc. LifeWork is a separate membership from the gym but it includes gym membership. There are three LifeWork membership levels. This Ardmore location is the 133rd Life Time gym to open in the country and is the second-most expensive LTF gym (only the gym in NYC is more expensive). As a Diamond Premier level club, its members are allowed to use every other LTF gym in the country for free (including Ft Washington and KOP locations, but not NYC). Despite its hefty monthly membership fee, there are still additional fees for Pilates reformer (Pilates mat classes are included), childcare, and a few other exclusive workout regimens that I can't remember. I really do think that Pilates should be included given the price point of this club. I think there is free valet parking in the garage during the morning hours, but it's easy to just park yourself and walk across. I'm wondering how the service, energy, and cleanliness will change after it's been open for awhile and how the manager responds to suggestions, but if LTF Ardmore retains this level quality and energy then it will be an incredible addition to the Mainline.

Trainers: Rob and his staff are very hands on and helpful. Regardless if you are a visitor or a regular, you will get focused attention on your technique and form. Additionally, they are very knowledgeable. They have trainers that specialize on everything from powerlifting to nutrition. On top of that they are exceptionally friendly and interested in your time spent at CFDV. 2. Space: They have all the equipment needed for any type of workout, and plenty of space to get it done without being on top of the person next to you. You never have to run waves of workouts. 3. Programming: There is almost always a strength portion and a met-con portion to the workout. CFDV doesn't follow the main site, and does a much better job of giving a full workout in the hour that you spend with them. 4. The People: They welcome visitors like they've known them their entire lives. Regardless if you have been doing CrossFit for 5 days, you will not be intimidated by this box. The members are as helpful as the staff. 5. Class sizes: Typically anywhere from 5-12 in a class with a primary trainer and a backup for the larger classes. The Philadelphia area has many boxes to choose from, but I drive the extra 20 minutes to go to CrossFit Delaware Valley.

The fellow members are super friendly and inviting. Even if you don't know someone they are bound to come up and introduce themselves which makes coming back all the easier. The gym is its own little village and has made it a great experience so far.

Then he wrote a crap review regarding a business that really doesn't have control over your complaint. Come on. This a small, tight knit, awesome little gym. There are a lot of personal trainers there, typically two or three at any time. The only difference between members and trainers at HHF is that the trainers there pay a heck of a lot more than members like me to go there. So if you're respectful, communicative and nice, you'll learn that the people whom go there are irreplaceable. The equipment is ample, and while not the newest, is typically always working and cleaned really well but a friendly little staff. So if you'd like to be part of a really nice community, join. I attribute a good bit of the 35 lbs I've lost since belonging here to simply the kind motivation of others that show up here (I never used any of the trainers). If you'd like something more run-of-the-mill, the YMCA is right down the street.
