I really like RuckHouse…read more If you're looking for a full body workout (and really, we all should be), head over for a class. It's a circuit training/HIIT style workout, where you roll around the studio and run through a series of different exercises designed to get your whole body moving and sweating and just in better overall shape. There's some work on machines (ski, treadmill, bike, etc.), weights, bodyweight exercises, and more. If you've ever done F45 or something similar, it's not far off, but it's a cool local shop with personable coaches in a clean environment with surprisingly nice facilities and even products in the bathroom for when you're through. Everyone we spoke with from the front desk to the trainers leading the session to the other folks working out seemed cool, and we'll definitely be back when we're in town. Like most workouts (and many other things in life), you get out what you put in. Meaning, if you come in ready to see what your body can do, you'll get a great sweat on. They have a shirt for sale that says, "But did you die?" And I like that. Bring your own towel.

I've never had bad time at Ruckhouse. The trainers are friendly, knowledgeable, fun, and tough!…read moreThey know when and how to push you and still make the experience amazing. The training facility is always clean, organized, and well maintained. There's a lounge area, shake bar, and locker room as well. There's plenty of parking and a variety of classes to find what you're looking for. The best part about this place is not the workout or building but rather the people. Every person that walks through that door I consider family even if I haven't met them yet. This place draws the best members and staff. If you're looking for more than just a gym choose Ruckhouse Athletics!

Every time the manager quits others step in and power trip out. It's very strange. Also, from what I hear... they REMOVE "negative" reviews, so the public does not have a complete picture. Isn't that censorship? Isn't that abusive. I'm telling you, go to LA Fitness near this club. Significantly cheaper, pretty much the same services and much, much better parking! Plus LA Fitness doesn't remove comments they don't fully embrace!

Rock solid - I'm new to Rochester and dropped in to check this place out. It was awesome. The space…read morehas a cool industrial feel, hidden in a residential area. The instructors are full of energy, know what their doing, and were dedicated to helping me improve. The work out started with an active warm up, followed by strength training, then ended with a high intensity, hard hitting, as many reps as possible grind which was the perfect to quench that thirst to burn and let loose. 100% recommend it and will be back.

Based around group-oriented classes with top-notch Coaches, we employ the Crossfit methodology to meet your fitness goals, no matter what your fitness background . If you are looking for an alternative way to push yourself to the next level and want to get away from the mundane and repetitive weight machines, treadmills, and stationary bikes; CrossFit Park Ave is the perfect place to improve on functional fitness that translate to daily activities, sports, and other facades of life. Instead of using complicated machinery and following a predictable workout schedule on a week-to-week basis, you will find kettlebells, pull-up bars, and barbells that will be incorporated into workouts with other high explosive bodyweight movements that force your body to move the way it was designed to move.

Still a great location to workout, swim, etc. That being…read moresaid, things I'd like to see: Addition of 1-2 sets of pre-loaded barbells. (There's an area in the weight area with about 5 rowing machines that's almost always empty plus one's been broken for awhile now. There are other rowing machines as well) Additional weight plates added for the squat racks and bench press areas. Not sure if plates have disappeared or broken but more are needed. Also, addition of colored , matching bumper plates for the squat racks. Yes, 25 lbs is the same no matter the color but let's make it look nice. Plus barbell math is hard at 5am! On the positive side, they've added EV charging stations in the parking lot. Customer service remains excellent. Anytime, we've needed help - it's been easy to find.

DO NOT JOIN LA FITNESS!!!…read more The reason are as follows: 1. When I initially talked to my salesperson he told me that the club was getting a red light sauna as the current one was not working, I assumed it would be soon but the sauna has not worked in 10 weeks since I have been a member which is absurd/ridiculous for a fitness club...I used to own a fitness club with indoor tennis, large fitness room, (at the time one of the biggest in upstate N.Y.), aerobics, pro shop, nice locker rooms with a sauna...if the sauna ever broke down which happened frequently as members would pour water on the coils and short circuit them I would FedEx the appropriate parts and get it fixed ASAP...plus the salesperson was not working there days after I joined so he probably knew that and said anything to sell a membership and assuming get a commission 2. In my opinion the club is oversold with memberships as no matter what time I come in there to work out it's tough getting on any piece of equipment as there's so many people working out 3. I had a member try to walk out with my jacket which I moved around with me as I worked out as didn't want to use your locker rooms 4. I don't want to use your locker room as the one day I forgot my flip flops and I got a wart on the bottom of my foot from your locker room floor 5. The main reason I joined your club is that you had a sauna versus Planet Fitness which did not 6. I have since joined Planet Fitness, both your club and PF are about the same distance and time from my house on East Ave and PF has probably 3x the equipment and space of your club, better machines with at least 2 of every plate loaded machine which usually means no waiting for a machine to work out on + they have more free weights than yours 7. Numerous times your club was dirty, noticeably the floors on the fitness areas 8. I tripped over your vacuum cord which has a 30-40' extension cord...I'm almost 77 and luckily I caught myself and didn't fall which could have been a lawsuit...I own a 4,000 sq. ft. home with 3 stories, (1875 house), and I have the same vacuum which is cordless for safety and ease of moving around and the last club I belonged to, (Midtown), had the cordless backpack vacuum so members wouldn't trip over a long cord and for ease of movement and safety and was faster as no cord to deal with...if I can have a cordless one as a homeowner I'm sure a big corporation like LA Fitness can afford one 9. I previously emailed the manager or so I thought but it was a generic email to LA Fit on a Friday and she never got back to me, I was told at the front desk that I could email her directly from the web site but it was a common email only...after I complained to her (Abby) at the front desk the next Monday she probably looked for it and got back to me in a day or so after that...I've taught small business administration and entrepreneurship at the college level and waiting 4-5 days to respond to a customer's complaint is not acceptable in a well run company...when I complained to her about the sauna she were cordial but kept giving me the run around about it and when it would be fixed and refused to give me any club credit for lack of services - the sauna - which was the main reason I joined your club 10. So I'm leaving LA Fitness and their lack of getting the sauna fixed in 10 weeks means they will lose my membership for many years to come, I've worked out and been an athlete since the 4th grade and will never stop belonging to a gym so LA lost thousands of dollars on my future membership and after the review I post which will be much of the above, you will lose numerous future members and cost the club 10's of thousands of dollars 11. The spin bikes are from maybe 2005 at the best and they are the worst spin bikes I have ever used in 25+ years...and they have maybe 2-3 spin classes a week, I only ever saw one 12. This "Gym" is like a used car lot from 1970 with sales people having desks to sit you down to hard sell you a membership for a "special deal" if you join that day...lying about anything to sell a membership and have that same slimy feeling of those old time used car sales people 13. And when I walked into the club and talked to Abby (East Ave Club in Brighton) I was told that initially I had paid for the first and last month so I have been billed for an extra month upfront so if you want to cancel they get an extra month out of you...what a scam from old time car dealers and scummy salespeople from clubs in the 1970's + 1980's and 1990's Mark McCarthy
