No one else will have access to the space during your scheduled time.

Price isn't the issue. The issue is that Genesis has stopped being a place for people who actually…read moretrain. The equipment selection puts a hard ceiling on anyone trying to make real progress. The dumbbell rack ends well before a serious lifter's needs do. The hex bar is exiled to the second floor, where loading it with meaningful weight is inconvenient and impractical, while comparable gyms nearby let members train heavy without treating it like a problem. Every bench is bolted to the floor, eliminating most of the versatility that makes free-weight equipment valuable in the first place. The machines and racks are the same tired equipment that was here five years ago--only now they are more worn down. There are barely enough mirrors to check your form, positioning, or technique. The K-State Recreation Complex--a college facility--has better equipment, better variety, and a better environment for strength training than this paid membership gym. Let that sink in: a student rec center outclasses Genesis. The facility itself is not maintained at a level that justifies the membership. The locker-room odor can be bad enough to make you want to cut a session short. Somehow, the elevator is one of the only consistently fresh-smelling areas in the building. The pool is so heavily treated with chemicals that I regularly left feeling itchy afterward. Whether the chemical balance is technically within range or not, the experience was unpleasant enough that I stopped wanting to use it. The gym culture is just as frustrating. People leave a bottle or cup next to a machine, disappear for 15 minutes or longer, and expect everyone else to treat the equipment as reserved. A water bottle is not a claim ticket. When weights are still loaded and the person is nowhere to be found, other members should not be expected to put their entire workout on hold. What makes it worse is that this behavior is not an occasional exception--it is normal here, and staff appear completely uninterested in addressing it. Getting an uninterrupted workout is unnecessarily difficult. Trainers routinely take over areas, place their belongings and materials on equipment other members are actively using, or use benches and machines as tables while working with clients. I have had staff interfere with equipment during my own sets as though paying members are secondary to personal-training sessions. That is not professional, and it should not be considered normal gym etiquette. The turf area is rarely available for anyone trying to perform sled work, carries, sprints, jumps, or serious athletic training. It is frequently occupied by stretching sessions and low-intensity activities that consume the entire space for long periods. Those activities have every right to exist, but a well-designed facility should provide enough space that one group does not effectively eliminate the area for everyone else. The atmosphere can also be openly disrespectful. I watched people point and laugh at a woman performing plyometric exercises. In a legitimate training environment, staff would shut that behavior down immediately. Here, it barely seemed to register. A gym should be one of the few places where people can work on themselves without being mocked for training differently. Genesis feels less like a serious gym and more like a general wellness center that happens to contain some weights. There is nothing wrong with serving casual members, beginners, families, or older adults--but those groups should not be used as an excuse to neglect progressive strength training, athletic performance, equipment upgrades, cleanliness, and basic gym etiquette. For anyone who wants to train heavy, progress consistently, use functional space, or simply complete a workout without constant interruptions, there are better options nearby. Genesis has the size and resources to be an excellent facility. It has simply chosen not to operate like one.

They all have a malfunction. And when I tell them that they aren working correctly at all, all they do it put an out of order sign for a couple days, and then they take it off and it's the same. Every single treadmill at the location on port I have used consistently. Well, I've tried. And they just flat out need replaced. Something wrong with the motor. It's not "fixed". So stop acting like it is. People are paying over $50 a month. Maybe you should have working equipment. Used to say Genesis was expensive, but I'm realizing it's worth it. Because they have more income to be able to properly fix their equipment. Instead of opening the gym in Wamego, you could've fixed the facilities you already have.

I live quite close to Body First, so when Eric R. and I needed massages, we started here. The prices are very reasonable ($1 per minute) and often we get coupons in the mail for 20% off. I go to Tracy, but Eric R. has gone to Mary and Andrew and we were happy with all of the therapists. The beginning of the appointment is a brief consultation with the therapist to let him or her know any issues and focus areas. Then, a comfortable massage experience that flies by. I think given my issues, I find the massage to be mainly therapeutic rather than relaxing, but you can request what you are looking for specifically. I just took advantage of the August special 75 minutes for $60. This is truly a great deal considering I used to live in Vegas and even with 20% off local discounts at the casinos, I often spent more than double for 60 minute massages. I will continue to return as needed and will stay loyal to my therapist. This is easy - the first appointment requires filling out a form but otherwise I just show up a few minutes before my appointment and have never had to wait.

I'm glad that they have it on this side of the town although Manhattan is really not that big of a place. I've only been to this studio twice for a yoga class. On my second visit, I actually got time to check out the gym. First of all, it doesn't seem like parking is a problem. I've been going there in the evening, so I don't know if that makes any difference. They have a small lobby area with nice comfy chairs. The lockers are also around there. The gym staff that I have met are very nice and helpful. Because it's a small place, there aren't too many equipments. I can safely report that there are two of each equipments. They have the usual treadmill, elliptical and bicycle machines, weights etc. There's one studio room for the different workout classes. I think this branch is fairly new because there aren't usually too many people. In fact, the times I've been there, I was the only person to use the place. I like the yoga classes because the instructor is really good at what she's teaching and it's a really quiet and peaceful place to do yoga too despite being right next to a somewhat busy street. My only qualms is the price because they have special discounts only for military personnels or students. Regular members will have to pay about $40 a month. Knowing that I can only go once a week makes me feel like that price is a little too much including the price of gas I will have to spend to drive to this location as well. I still would like to continue going to this gym just because it seems extremely clean and it's still new, so the equipments are also in top condition. I hope that the next time I feel like giving it a second review, I will want to give it one more star. The only reason it's a 3 is simply because I've only been there twice.
