I booked the free three-day trial online, but when I arrived I was told I needed a local ID--a requirement I never confirmed during booking. As a result, I was denied both the trial and a week pass and offered only a $20 day pass. To make matters worse, this location doesn't even provide towels for the showers. It's hard to justify the pricing when the amenities don't match. By contrast, The Athletic Cos (Italian Village) offered a free one-day trial and a week pass for $35, making the experience far more welcoming and reasonably priced.

There's also a million treadmills......so many.... - A lack of equipment which was made worse when they took away their first floor stretch/focus room and replaced it with personal training only. This not only took away extra lower extremity equipment which can already be hard to come by on floor 2, but now I have no place to do a quiet work out. The dim lighting was great. -They do not have enough benches. Barring floor 1 off now means 3 less benches. - I'm still paying the same monthly price for 1 less floor of equipment. Shrinkflation? Idk, I just want my space back - plus it takes like 2 months to fix equipment.

Upon entering the dojo my stoke dropped a substanch amount as I realized this gym was mainly for weenies who like climbing rope and doing sit ups. With this being more of an upset than Woodstock 89' , I was fairly bummed. However I began to drift towards the dark side as I often found myself peeking into the CrossFit side of the gym as my curiosity grew... Taboo, I know. After a turn of events, my stoke-meter began to rise as I slowly started to use some chalk and utilize my shirt as my own personal sweat towel. Not after long I caught myself jogging on the treadmill with a weighted vest, while listening to some Toby Kieth and Jimmy Buffet. This dojo soon became my own personal Margaritaville. Since my initiation I have became severely addicted to ankle socks and completing the Workout of the Day. I totally recommend this place to anyone who wants to voyage to the dark side of the moon.

Other equipment I typically use at the gym includes rowers, squat racks, kettlebells, and pull-up bars. I highly recommend this gym!

It's got a nice room to warm up in with large mirrors and dumbbells as well as a cardio area and the weights area. They have a small amount of machines (only 1 of each thing) and they don't have every type of machine so you may need to revise some of your workouts to fit what they do have. The locker room was really nice with big mirrors and showers and lockers that already had locks on them. They also offer hair ties and cotton balls at the vanity if you need them. My main issue was that the gym was kinda dirty at times. There were two days specifically where it looked like someone had a nose bleed and it just was not cleaned for two days. Same with the floor always had hair and dust balls. It's also pretty expensive. I don't live in these apartments so it was 65 a month. Which for me, the gym did not justify that amount. I will say in the summer you get access to the pool that is really nice but always pretty crowded.

Solid gym. They have a new flagship location called the armory a few miles up the road. This review…read moreserves for both. GPF is 24/7 and has plenty of equipment, just about everything you need. Really nice in the warmer months as they open up the garage doors and air the place out. Can get crowded though in the late afternoon/ early evening (like most gyms) especially with space being a little tight. Cost is 60 a month plus initiation. The armory is a much larger facility and literally has every piece of lifting and cardio equipment possible. Is not open 24/7 but is from 6am to 10 pm most days. Staff has always been quite friendly. Cost for this place is 100 a month which also gives you access to GPF. This was one of the main reasons I left as the cost was prohibitive for my friends to join. They opened this facility about a year ago so I was grandfathered with my GPF membership. Another thing to note is in terms of facilities they had been open about 9 months when I left and at that time didn't have locker rooms and as fast as I knew no plans for when they would open (but they did prioritize opening other more expensive training areas). As of when I left, they had 2 bathrooms to share with the entire weight floor and the basketball court. The armory does have a basketball court but they share it with a grade school as well as several other groups so there is virtually no open court time regardless of the time of year. Big downside of the armory is that to access any of the nice recovery equipment (massage guns, cold tubs, etc), you have to be a shield member which is 195 a month plus initiation. That price point is frankly excessive in my opinion. Both gyms are pretty serious lifting gyms, so if that is the vibe you are wanting then this is definitely your spot. Probably less suited to the more casual lifters (like me). Certainly not a bad thing, more just an FYI. All that being said, solid facility, great place to lift if you are willing to pay for it.

But Dustin (and the other staff who are friendly and totally awesome) aside - I really love this place because it's diverse. A typical morning includes new parents with their kids in car carriers, older women lifting weights and practicing balance, boxers, marathoners, teens, even kids with special needs. Everyone fits in here. The place is basic but totally efficient and has better equipment than the rpac at Osu. The sweat box is fantastic and I cannot recommend it highly enough. It's a true place of wellness.
