Although I'm never disappointed at any AF facility, I've found VB oceanfront location to be second to none for the following reasons: - the members are serious about their workouts, but are always friendly and engaging - the staff is sincere, readily available, and provides meaningful direction without being overbearing (helps me get there five days a week:) - restrooms and workout space are always clean and tidy (no equipment left randomly about) - variety and condition of the equipment is excellent Don

It has all the equipment you need with a bright and open layout. Classes are also top notch. I've had 1000+ questions and the trainers have always be enthusiastic to help. Shoutout to Chris Ullom, the head trainer. Even while I was away at school and not paying gym dues he would still give me advice on different gym topics - things like that have made me a Wareing's lifer. Also, very pleased the gym rolled out extended hours. About time! Closing at 2pm on a Sunday was ridiculous.

Tons of equipment, from machines to free weights, plus they had a full size boxing ring upstairs - how many health clubs/gyms have one of those on site? Come in for a workout, get all warmed up, go for a run (for me, usually 3-5 miles), then back for a shower! Now live in Texas, outside of Fort Worth and work out at an old style gym - a few machines and free weights. Texas Fit is the name. Good people here too - always helpful, but no boxing ring! I'm now closing in on 80 years old and can't wait to get to a gym, just wish Wareing's was nearer! John M Stanley, USN (RET), Burleson, TX.

There is an abundance of gym equipment, weights, space, etc. Surprised to also see so many bumper plates and squat racks! They even have a cinema room to watch something while you work out. The gym requires you to leave your bags in the locker room, normally I carry around some equipment in my bag to help with my workouts but I feel, you don't have to worry about not finding what you need. People seemed respectful of the gym and put things back where they belong. Not sure if it's always like this but I went on thanksgiving day. We used our family's guest pass to get in. We asked about day passes and they said $10/visit. Side notes: there was a children's play area for people who needs a babysitter while they get active. Saw multiple bathing suit dryers in the women's locker room, ample dressing stalls/bathrooms, showers, etc and super clean!

I love the gym but the pool needs a better system…read more I've been increasingly frustrated with the pool experience at OneLife Fitness. This is the second time this week I've gone specifically to lap swim and found a children's private swim lesson being taught at an extremely loud volume right alongside the lap swimmers. Earlier this week, the instructor was so loud that several of us actually stopped swimming and were standing in the pool waiting for the lesson to end. I've swum during British Swim School classes with groups of toddlers and they were considerably less disruptive. Today was worse. I got into the one remaining open lap lane, only to have the same instructor tell me he was teaching a lesson in that lane. At that point I left the pool entirely. Even if I waited for another lane to open, the noise level made lap swimming anything but relaxing or enjoyable. When I spoke to the front desk, I was told there really wasn't anything they could do other than ask the instructor to be quieter. I suggested that, at a minimum, these private lessons should be clearly listed on the pool schedule so members know in advance when part of the lap pool will be occupied and can plan accordingly. I understand that swim lessons are part of a shared pool environment. The issue isn't that children are being taught--it's that paying members trying to use the pool for lap swimming have no warning that lanes may be unavailable, combined with a level of noise that disrupts the entire pool. OneLife needs a better system for scheduling and communicating private swim lessons so lap swimmers can actually use the facility they're paying for.

I downloaded the app prior to arriving to start the "Guest" process and was given a barcode to scan once I arrived. Since my boyfriend is a Black Card Member, I am able to accompany him as a guest anytime he goes so once I signed a few waivers and took a picture, we were good to go. Very easy process. The gym wasn't crowded at all and I loved how clean and ventilated it was. The majority of the stationary exercise machines were available so once I cleaned off a treadmill, I immediately hopped on and started my work out. Planet Fitness has two sets of 12 large TV screens broadcasting different shows that you are able to access when on a stationary machine, which I thought was convenient, but I just listened to my music as I walked. The staff was extremely friendly and each workout area includes a generous amount of space for members to work out without feeling overly crowded. The cleaning stations are located sporadically around the gym but allow for easy access for people to wipe off the machines before and after use. For it being my first time at a Planet Fitness, I was overall very impressed and will be returning as soon as I can.

There is a coffee or juice bar but that was closed when I went (Friday afternoon). As for the cons, if the gym is crowded parking is an issue, my recommendation would be to go after working hours. I was there at 6pm and it was close to empty. The gym has hours, open on weekdays till 7pm and weekends 8till 4. So definitely not 24/7. And if you are a morning workout person, the gym will be crowded with active mil folks getting preference especially during PRT events. All in all the gym is clean, staffed by friendly helpful folks and well equipped. No nonsense gym, not a place to get a date, so where only gear to work out in and if you have to walk from the bowling alley to park, that is part of the workout. Four stars due to not open 24/7.

Great studio, great location, great instructor!…read more How did I find this place? Funnily enough... Yelp. I don't live locally but visit family frequently enough to want a go-to studio in Virginia Beach. I found 3 on yelp - none of which had any reviews. Chose Pilates Fitness Club solely based on the website: it was really easy to find the schedule and the class options are super convenient. Plus a prominently featured intro deal for new clients: 5 classes for $25. Worth it? Yes. I haven't tried the other studio to compare, but I'm fairly positive I made the right choice. Not intimidating at all (the other studio pretty much required you to call in advance if you were a brand new student) and awesome instructor (Chris) - whether there are 2 students or 12, he really focuses on making sure you're doing the movements correctly and makes the 50 minutes of class fly by. Proximity to the oceanfront is an added bonus.

The instructors were very good and took you through the movements and made the appropriate adjustments. They made the class fun and approachable even for beginners like me. They had a $25 for 5 classes for first time customers deal so you really don't have an excuse not to give them a try. Be warn though because you'll likely come back often. The classes are generally scheduled every hour and can be easily booked through the website. On the last day, I brought my 60 year old mother to class and Christopher took his time to work with her on the various Pilates positions. She has not even heard of Pilates and she had a great workout. This is on my to go list when I am in the area.
