This gym is the most simple yet sexiest gyms I've been to in a really long time. It has everything…read moreyou need to strengthen every part of your body as well as a couple of machines to work in a bit of cardio. The other fantastic part about this gym, the staff and trainers are super friendly and laid back. There is an absolute sense of purpose here. There's a warm feeling, as though the trainers are here for you to succeed, to push you forward to reach your goals.
I know that is probably how most gyms claim to be, but honestly I've never felt that until stepping into this little hidden gem recently. I felt comfortable working on bench presses and working muscles I hadn't worked in years. I had fun and though I could not lift as much, that doesn't matter to them. To them, what matters is me, what I can do, what success looks like for me, and where I am at now and where I could be later. I love that! It's not that they just say this, I can tell they believe this and do what they can to ensure it emanates through the classes they hold, the training sessions, and the atmosphere in the gym.
Exercise has always been in my life but it had been years since I actually had a direction for my workouts. I met up with one of their trainers, Jason, and I was able to use an In Body Scan machine. This machine is amazing, it measures your body fat percentage, how many calories you need to just be awake, as well as your skeletal muscle mass among many other things. Jason explained every detail to me in a professional and friendly way. I never felt stupid despite my ignorance. As we began talking about the numbers he asked me what I was looking for and what I wanted to achieve knowing this information. I had a hard time sticking down a specific number or goal but as we talked more about what I wanted and how I could achieve it we settled on a couple of goals and a manageable time frame to achieve them.
Another great thing about this gym? They also have classes you can sign up for, BMFC fit class, power lifting and boxing, as well as personal training sessions. If you're not ready for that yet, you can even set up a plan to use the gym at a pretty reasonable price too. If you have ever felt intimidated at other gyms, or you wanted to talk through your goals, nutrition, or exercises in a comfortable and open environment, Body Masters Fit Club is the perfect fit. I wish I had found this place sooner, but now that I have I'm excited to see where I will be a year from now. Perhaps, I'll even be able to climb up that rope they have and touch the ceiling!
