There is old school and cutting edge equipment for all training types. I live in Simpsonville SC and train at this gym every time I come to Charlotte. In fact, 10 years ago I'd travel here every weekend just to train legs as I haven't found any other gym in the southeast that has the shear numbers of leg equipment that this gym has available. The gym is so large and has so much equipment that there is seldom any waiting to use a piece of equipment. This gym is a "Don't Miss" if you train in Charlotte.

Since I am from up North, our clubs seem to be but much bigger and way less money, by about $30-$40/month. I have spent this much for Orange Theory, well worth it, but that's a semi-private personal training boot camp, not a gym. I would join if it was walking distance (maybe).

On Friday night I discovered the Charlotte Athletic Club durning a google search. Unfortunately they did not have pricing information online however I was able to submit a request and Steve texted me 1st thing Saturday morning to book a tour the same day. The GYM is just amazing! It's clean, with a ton of equipment and space for a stress feee workout. The locker rooms are upgraded and include both a sauna, and a steam room! I am so glad that I made the pivot to this gym! The energy is amazing, the staff is friendly and there are a ton of classes and free perks included in the membership! 5 stars is not enough! I rank this gym a 10 !

I also appreciate how the classes keep evolving and how the club continues to improve, from the new hair dryers and renovated sauna to the addition of the cold plunge. One little thing that would make the club even easier to enjoy is a facility map showing where everything is. I still haven't figured out where the cold plunge is, and a floor plan showing the equipment would be helpful too. I really enjoy coming here and feel lucky to have it so close to home!

Also this is meant to provide constructive feedback in hopes that management/area director and leadership at Lifetime read this- finally these are constant grievances of mine, others on this feed and I have been a member for more than 3 years. Additionally, I've experienced the brand new top shelf Lifetime in Cary NC...world of difference in service, equipment (of course new) , AND true spa like feel in the men's locker room...down to lockers have 'bumpers' on them so when they are shut they are quiet. 1. NOISE! Men's spa area is so loud I have to wear airbuds to escape the constant yammering of others in the steam and sauna. 2. Tired Equipment and in consistent amenities- I joined for the quality of equipment and mainly access to steam and dry sauna- Equipment is worn out...bikes, cable machines, benches, accessories for gym equipment in general need replacement. Machines sit dormant waiting for repair often...and Steam room is constantly inconsistent and temperatures in dry sauna are below recommended temps. Did I also mention how LOUD it is in the 'Quiet Area.' 3. Towel service is 1 STAR....and unacceptable. Last night and many days/nights the shelves in the locker area are bare with NO TOWELS....I literally had to walk the locker room to find a clean towel to dry off with. 4. Family Friendly. YES! It should be...but now that school/college is on summer break the gym experience is fraught with kids being kids.. from locker room to gym floors...absolute chaos... 5. Showers- The entire shower area is a mess a lot of the time, but especially last night....walk into a shower and someone left towels inside stall....No attendants cleaning up or restocking towels...counters full of water, etc. NOT A PREMIUM EXPERIENCE! I truly enjoy investing in my health and consider Lifetime a splurge in my budget....BUT I continually leave shaking my head at the level of service...quality...and inconsistency....even the 'simple things' from a staff person, like Have a good night...hope you had a nice workout. It would be nice to have persons on the floor assisting 'newbies' with workout tips or offering assistance in using the equipment.

The staff is always friendly and the gym is pretty clean. They never run out of wipes, which is appreciated in our current environment, and have them spread all around the gym. There's a huge exercise room for classes, although I have yet to take a class here, and also a nice size training room. The gym isn't that big, so it was surprising when I saw how much they packed inside. I think you get your moneys worth with a membership here. Depending on the time of day, parking can get a little crowded, but even if you can't park directly in front of the building, there's plenty of parking nearby. The location is great too, just off Gilead Rd, near Starbucks, Walgreens, etc. I've been very happy here. There are just a few machines that aren't available that I wish they had. But like I said, they are regularly updating and swapping out equipment, so maybe I just need to inquire about what I'm interested in.

I've been using this Anytime Fitness location for over a year now. From cardio machines to weight…read morelifting and an exercise/yoga studio, you can pretty much find everything you need to get in a good work out. It's not a super large gym, perhaps like some others in the area. However, it is a really good size and you never really have to wait for machines or equipment. It seems that they try to keep the equipment up-to-date and every now and then you will see some new/updated equipment on the floor for use. It's also not crowded (usually the regular 1-3 people are there), at least during the super early morning time, when I go. If you go later in the morning, there are a lot more people there and it can become a little crowded. Either way, it's always your average, typical gym folks there that are considerate of others, never any grunters or ones that make you feel out of place when working out. This Anytime Fitness is located in a shopping center with a variety of establishments such as Walgreens, Starbucks, FedEx, and many other eateries and stores. So it is a great location with plenty of parking and things around which may be needed before or after a workout. The owner, manager and trainers are very nice and helpful when needed. If you live in the area, definitely try out this Anytime Fitness for your workouts.

To put it simply, Hive Fitness is the best bang for your buck gym in all of Charlotte. The gym has…read morepractically every single machine you could ever need while still being spaced out appropriately. They also have free weights, a turf area (sometimes it's open for everyone to use and sometimes they have classes there), a yoga room and 4 rooms for specific workouts (see photos). It can get crowded from time to time, but there has never been a time that I could not do my workout because it was super crowded. The staff is super friendly and super knowledgeable, and so are the people that come here. It's really easy to make friends here that you talk to regularly. This gym also caters to all people regardless of experience with weightlifting. If you're just beginning, I would definitely choose this gym. If you're 5+ years into weightlifting, I would choose this gym. They gym itself is very cool looking, it has a cool speakeasy, rustic type look to it. Lastly, the gym is also very reasonably priced, they also offer pre and post supplements which is clutch if you ever forget. Bottom line: This is the best gym in Charlotte. Try it out for yourself!
