Coaches and setup are great. Walking into a class 5 minutes late (Studio Thresshold for being late)…read moreafter driving 25 minutes to get there and be denied by Lisa, not so great. I respect the 5 minute late rule, but walking in exactly 5 minutes late and being told I can't join the class, being met with an ohhhh, I'm so sorry you're but I can't let you in, looking down and seeing the time change to 6 minutes late. That is some BS. Additionally there was no one on the waitlist, so I wasn't holding anyone else's chance of getting into the class. Sometimes I wonder if people like Lisa realize that a membership is very expensive. That small choices can have a HUGE impact. Based on my experience with one individual, I will no longer use Hanover's studio.

A workout should not be the same thing everytime.... Orange theory ensures you never do the same…read morething more than once. Going to orange theory is the best thing anyone could do for themself. The coaches are the best and are always motivating you to push yourself. The atmosphere is always lively and fun. And don't forget about the music.... Each coach has their own unique style of coaching but they all blend together to ensure you are doing the workout to not only get the most of the workout but to ensure you are doing it correctly. #soretodaystrongtomorow

Going to a gym can be a tedious task and if you don't look forward to going...eventually, you'll…read morestop going all together. Not at Alloy!!! The classes are fun, fast paced and intense...and at the end of each session you'll feel accomplished! Growing up, playing a sport that required a lot of jumping around...my joints (knees and ankles) aren't what they use to be. I don't feel any pain while on the RealRyders or IndoRowers, which I usually would when I'm working out on my own or taking any other group fitness class. When you're working out at an environment with fun, positive people...and trainers who are passionate in what they do - that tedious task that you constantly dread will become an enjoyable routine that you look forward to. That's what it is here at Alloy Fitness. It's more like a family at Alloy and "you wanna go where everybody knows your name" (yes, I did just quote a line from Cheers!)

Strength training is what I needed to complete my training for the Boston Marathon this year. With a well thought out plan and motivation from my semi private group I finished (and felt strong doing it!). Can't speak highly enough of Alicia's attention to an individualized workout plan.

Both staff and other gym members work together to help boost your motivation. There is not only trainer but they also have nutritionist you can see on there staff who work together to create a nutrition plan that goes along with the work out plans that are assigned. I never thought I could be a runner and three months into this gym I ran my first 5k. What surprised me the most was not that I finished the race but I had the stamina from beginning to end. The gym is very clean. The owner has members bring other shoes to use while in the studio so things you might have walked in outside don't get into the workout floor. I have been to other gyms before but unlike those I have never felt like a healthy balance was dirty or full of germs. They have Clorox wipes all over and your asked to clean the mats if you use them. If my current job wasn't an hour in the opposite direction I would defiantly go back to a healthy balance. I would highly recommend this gym to the person who wants to lose weight but has no idea where to start.

I recently saw a post from this gym suggesting that all members leaving USA health&fitness should…read morejoin this establishment. As a previous member of train 4 life and USA I feel I should warn fellow ex USA members (as well as others) NOT to even consider this place as an option. Let me start by saying that you will not be greeted with the welcoming and friendly demeanor of USA. The owner is a narcissistic weasel who in the 5 years of my dedicated patronage never once extended a smile in my direction unless provoked. Other members were in agreement that he was beyond unfriendly and at times they felt like he was judging them. I have overheard him talking poorly about his clients as well. In fact, if it weren't for the amazing trainers that I met there over the years, I would've have left. I should also mention that when in did leave, (because there was a change to my program that management never disclosed) I was out over $200 which I justifiably should have been refunded and they charged me the following month bc "my husband never canceled ". I was a devoted client to that gym, going at least 5 days a week, trialing various classes/programs and even brought at least 5 new members into the place. Well I was dooped. And I know that I am not the only person to have walked away from that place beyond angry with the way they were treated and how business was conducted. I would like to add that I have NEVER in my life written a bad review about anything (it is not my style), but that is how much I strongly urge people not to buy into this poorly run establishment.
