This gym is undeniably convenient, especially with the on-site childcare, and the staff themselves…read moreare consistently kind and helpful. That said, there are a few issues that genuinely detract from the experience. First, the dress code. I was asked to get off a treadmill mid-workout because my midriff was showing. I wasn't aware this was against the rules. I wear standard gym attire and don't typically comb through fine-print dress codes, so being stopped in the middle of a workout felt unnecessary and frankly frustrating. I disagree with this policy and think it's worth reconsidering. Second, the app is extremely inefficient. To check children into childcare, you're required to sign out and back into the app, which is inconvenient on its own. Combined with the fact that there's little to no cell service in the building, it becomes a real hassle rather than a helpful tool. Lastly, the amenities are unreliable. The hot tub and sauna are frequently out of service due to maintenance. At this point, it feels more like the expectation than the exception. Overall, the gym has strong potential and some real positives, but these policies and operational issues make it difficult to fully enjoy or justify.

I used to be a member of this same facility under a different management (Healthtrax), but they…read moreclosed the business, and stripped everything from the building, so I never thought I would ever enter it again. Fast forward to 2020 . . . rumours about a private investment group of former Healthtrax members purchasing the club, remodeling it, and re-opening (During COVID19 times too (Opening a health club during a pandemic = BALLSY)). I waited a while before coming back (after getting vaccinated), but as soon as I walked into the door . . . I felt like being at home . . . the place is better than I remember it (and cleaner). I enjoy the pool, racquetball court, and gym. Everything is brand new and everything is clean. The wi-fi is strong, and they even have a hi-tech app. for my phone, so I can reserve a court, or sign up for a class. It even tracks my workouts if I choose. The only thing this place is missing, are the swimming suit spinners to dry your wet bathing suit (Healthtrax ripped them out when they left). Very happy I rejoined (And I qualify for a Veteran discount too) . . . Cheers! P.S. Speaking of Hi-Tech, the pool was down for unexpected maintenance yesterday, and I got a notification on the app. saying, so, as well as an e-mail and an app/ message telling me that it opened back up later in the evening. Many times in the past at Healthtrax, I got to the club in the morning, only to find out the pool was closed, but now I know in advance . . . that's awesome!

Everything at SWEAT is done to the beat of the music, so it's fun and doesn't even feel like you're working out (but you definitely leave class completely drenched in sweat... hence the name haha). The studio offers barre, yoga, and spinning classes. They are all challenging but the instructors provide modifications you can take when need be. The instructors are all phenomenal, too. They are so motivational and inspirational and help to keep you going even when you think you can't go anymore. I always come out of class not just feeling good physically but mentally as well. Everyone is so welcoming and supportive, and you never have the feeling of being judged or looked down upon. Everyone is there to be the best version of themselves and to have a good time while working out together.

Who wants to get yelled at by people who think they are better than you because they are fit? Who wants to feel ashamed about their bodies by instructors who are supposed to be there to help and motivate? Won't be me. Never again. Bye Felicia

Dan has created a great environment and plans fantastic workouts. Push 40 reminds me of a mix of multiple workouts that I've done, but I just loved the concept and it's all fit into 40 minutes. Dan fits in cardio, weights and ab work with the HIIT (20 seconds on, 20 seconds off) methodology. You rotate around the room from treads to weights to bikes to TRX for the majority of the class, and end with about 5 minutes of ab work. The equipment was unique and planet friendly too. Their treads are powered by your speed instead of plugging them into the wall. Dan and the coaches work with each individual to push it to your maximum at each station. Not only were the coaches great, but the people here were all so welcoming and helpful.

Pittsburgh Gymnastics Club, LLC reviews…read more I was forced post to websites of the gyms affiliates and workers because I felt the need to defend myself as Kim, the owner, under handedly blocked me from the group page and emails. None of what I posted was "nasty" as the owner rebutted.The statements were a true representation of what happened. I feel like people need to know what type of business owner you are. What type of business owner of a gymnastics class bans parents from seeing their kids in action especially being new and being the one paying. I come from far away to attend this little gym in Braddock, but now understand I was expected to go away and not watch my child. Where did you expect me to go for 1 hour 2 days per week?? Maybe the kids should come in snowsuits for gymnastics if you're so worried about the coaches touching a little sweat. This gym and owner is unprofessional when dealing with the public. My daughter had a midriff top on as part of her gymnastics outfit. It was the 1st time she wore it. I've seen other kids with backs and stomachs out before; and we are new or were new to gymnastics! I didn't know it was against dress policy, as I'm educated, not illiterate, and would not have put it on her if I had known. The instructor Sam told us she couldn't wear it again and I understood that. Then Sam ran and told the boss as soon as she got there for her to then reinforce it. Again I'm not illiterate or uneducated; I got it the 1st time! They demanded my 9 year old, who hasn't a trace of protruding body parts, put on a shirt with less than 30 min. of class left. Upset my daughter tremendously! Instead of Kim, the owner making it more of a safety issue which I would have understood, she told me my 9 year olds sweat was GROSS! Yes she used the word GROSS! Are the faces, necks, arms, and legs of the children GROSS and part of a safety and sanitation issue you posted about on facebook? Because they are all exposed and get sweaty, touch the coaches, and equipment too. Maybe your in the wrong business!!! Maybe tbe kids should come in snowsuits if the coaches and owner are worried about touching the kids sweat. Again GROSS would not be the professional thing to say to a parent. That offended me tremendously and I made the decision to pull my daughter out of that gym. Then Kim rudely blocked me from commenting on the situation via email and facebook, after she posted a very offensive and UNPROFESSIONAL facebook post stating me and my 9 year old rolled our eyes, charging me for a shirt, and something about what my mama didn't teach me.... what is this high school? I should not be receiving any farther charges after 6/20/17 as my daughter used her own shirt. Who talks about a child as an adult and owner of a business that supposed to love and serve children?! Speaking of rolling eyes I witnessed teacher Sam roll her eyes and curl her lip at a student named Savanah just because she had to redirect her a couple of times. If you brought your kids to a practitioner to be treated, which is what I do, you would not like it either if I used slang/unprofessional terms such as GROSS; to describe a certain condition when treating your children. Learn from this situation and the loss of a new customer/client! Please, please learn to be professional if you plan to be open for any amount of time.

There is nothing wrong with traditional weight lifting. I just fell in a rut and did the same exercises at the same times during the week. PKP really mixes it up. I have been to 4 classes and exposed to 3 different instructors. The workouts are different and more circuit consistency. The participants are super helpful for newbs like me. The trainers are very conscientious to ensure you do not hurt yourself. They make sure your form is on point and urge you to use lighter weights. The classes are well organized (usually split into groups and the groups are doing different exercises). Overall - it is a high recommend. I am still not able to do everything the veterans do, but I am getting better each day. Tip - I learned from a veteran - wear sandles / flip flops and put your shoes on once you are inside. The entire floor is matted so they ask you not to have a different pair for inside so you do not track water, salt, dirt, etc... Overall: Atmosphere - Fun, Busy, the hour goes fast Cost - surprisingly very affordable. This would be ideal to augment a gym. Cheaper than a personal trainer and you get huge benefits Routines - very different - I don't think I have done the same thing once in the past 2 weeks of going.
