Used to have a great indoor pool but it has been broken for some time and will remain so for another year I think.

Stopped in here during vacation and got a day pass for $10. This is a no frills bodybuilder gym…read moremeant for serious athletes. Lots of average joes there too, but mostly a bunch of gym rat types. This is not a sauna and spa gym. This is a weights, chalk, squat rack and Dumbbells that go up much higher than I can lift (120+). I am a physique competitor so I enjoy the atmosphere, but it is definitely not for everyone and those who prefer a more relaxed comfortable gym will probably not feel quite at home though everyone is very friendly. Hope you like heavy metal hardcore music like korn, godsmack, disturbed, chevelle, alien ant farm, saliva because that is what will be playing during your workout. It wasn't too loud though so didn't mind. Even through I prefer EDM to workout. My friend Jimmy felt it was a pretty hardcore gym and while it wasn't exactly his cup of tea he had a good workout. They have a nice supplement cooler as well with protein, pre workouts, and other supplements. Prices are fair $3-4 for a protein drink, $4 for a pre workout, $2 power bars etc. It was pretty empty in there, it was a bit hot though -- fan cooled on a hot Virginia day is bound to make you sweat. They did have air conditioning though but it was definitely not on full blast. In summary: great no frills gym for serious lifters, and guys who want the "muscle" vibe. I did see on the wall an ad for Zumba and it looked like there was a group exercise studio in the back. So some fit moms may like it here too.

The gym is HUGE and has a ton of equipment with areas for every lifting style (Olympic, CrossFit, and bodybuilding). It is pretty overwhelming at first but the layout is well thought out and functional so you can find what you want pretty quickly. Huge perk: You can access the gym 24/7. Even though I've been lifting for a long time, I initially felt very intimidated by all the obviously fit people there. Let me tell you, I have not had any bad experiences!

My Medigap supplement policy offers a free gym membership and this AF location is about a mile from my house, so I decided to give them a shot. I was greeted by the manager, Ali, who was just as personable and professional as she could be. The registration process was straightforward and Ali answered all my questions. She then gave me a tour of the gym which was larger than I expected, nicely organized, and very clean. At my age, I will probably be focused mostly on cardio (treadmill and cycle), but the gym was well equipped with various machines and free weights. There were also several bathrooms, including some with showers. As I left, I was given my key fob for member access 24/7.

I happen to be partial to Alex (my amazing trainer) but everyone of the trainers and staff are extremely warm and welcoming, making you feel right at home as soon as you walk in. I was impressed to learn there are no "beginner" trainers here. They each have a background in fitness and are experienced and educated in their field. They take clients at all ages and levels of fitness, but if you're just starting out, like me, this is the place to come. There is absolutely no judgement or reason to be self conscious. They take you "as is" and are eager to craft a personalized workout, according to your goals, history, abilities and any health concerns your dealing with. They take the time to understand your unique needs and abilities. I love how Alex is able to explain the mechanics of a movement and that he's very focused on correct form, in order to get the most out of an exercise and avoid injury. He makes my workouts challenging, but also reigns me in when I get too eager to take on more than I'm ready for. Another plus that impressed me is the effort they make to take care of clients practical needs- showers, towels, soaps, shampoo, etc. They've even offered a stretch lab and a sound bath experience since I've been here, free to clients, both of which I really enjoyed. This is certainly not your run of the mill, box gym. The pricing is extremely reasonable for the quality of personalized attention, the well appointed equipment, clean space and the amenities you receive. I have had an amazing experience at Ghent Fit and would highly recommend it! - Stephie

I have been a member of many gyms - from Manhattan to California - and attended many different kinds of workout classes. The classes at Lacey Lee are among the best I have attended. The instructors are excellent, enthusiastic and are able to challenge the members without being overbearing. The gym itself is small, but big enough for the intended purposes and the equipment is all in good shape. The classes are variable enough that you never get bored, but consistent enough that you know you will get a great full-body workout every time. Besides all that, the members are very welcoming and the gym has a great community feel. Highly recommended!
