For me, this gym accompanies the workouts I do. It's just something about "warehouse" setting gyms that make me feel at home.

I would highly recommend to the bodybuilders, powerlifters, Olympian lifters out there to try out this gym! I think you'll love it!

I took a Sproing class here with my ClassPass a couple of months ago. Sproing is TOUGH but lots of…read morefun! You're basically running on a soft-surfaced treadmill and doing lots of different exercises using your own body weight, free weights, bands, etc. You will be harnessed in so you don't go running off of the front of the machine. You get a heart rate monitor when you arrive. This way you can monitor your heart rate during the work out. Your heart rate and your name will appear on a screen in the studio, along with everyone else in the class. The instructor is really like a coach. She will tell you and others to push harder if your heart rate isn't in a certain zone, but she'll also let you know you should back off if your heart rate gets too high. PACE YOURSELF! Or you may end up light-headed and nauseated like me! Lots of explosive movements. This is definitely a high intensity interval training workout. The greatest difficulty for me is following the routine, like in any fitness class. I'm just not very coordinated. The work out is only 30-45 minutes, which is also nice. There's plenty of parking, but it's kind of awkward. The building where this is located is kind of nondescript and old, but you will find it pretty easily.

I followed my wife in and sat down. One of the trainers glared at me... Took his attention off his clients performing exercises for about 30 seconds. Don't care I'm there for my wife. I'm still watching my wife and this trainer is still staring, but this time he's 6 feet in front of me. I don't know what this guy's problem is so I wave and smile. He mumbles something and walks away. This place advertises itself as a friendly environment. What I experienced made me feel very uncomfortable for me, and I wonder if he:s doing the same to my wife and other seniors. Later I found out his name was Tim Payne. This place isn't the largest, or the closest, and their equipment is very limited. There's friendlier, better equipped places in Columbia and Ellicott City for seniors to try. I don't know why some people try to bully seniors like we're second class citizens. Maybe it's because he noticed a limp and thought I was an easy target. Too bad. I'd like to strengthen my hip and core, and maybe preserve a little flexibility as I enter my golden years. Someplace friendly that won't mistreat older folk. Someplace else
