I have to change my review since the gym has improved. Their temperatures have been much better…read moresince I posted my review last month. The last week the cardio room has been 68 degrees and it is great to finally workout in a comfortable environment. Thank you BHFC! Plenty of equipment although some are still "out of order" since we joined a few months ago. Staff keeps towels restocked well and they are friendly and helpful for general questions. Wish they had longer hours on Sunday (7-5).

List of things they need to improve on ASAP. 1. Hours. Gym…read moreused to be open until 10 pm before Covid. Also closed to early on weekends. 2. Dumbbells are missing weight sticker on them. It's hard to tell the weight of the dumbbell if it doesn't have the weight displayed on it. 3. Needs interior renovation. Lighting isn't the best. Could use new paint inside. Tells me the ownership doesn't want to spend money on these things to make the gym presentable. 4. Member ship price is just too much for the hours they operate and lack of equipment. 5. Treadmills are beyond dated. 6. The cable machines are rusted and barely glide, and several of the dumbbells are missing or mismatched. The squat rack is constantly occupied because there's only one, and the padding on the bench press is torn and uncomfortable. For the price they charge, this level of neglect is unacceptable.

I wish the new owner the best of luck!

I'm just going to settle on 3 stars here, an average of all my experiences. Long story short, if…read moreyou go to the ER while you are here or shortly after, you have to immediately return with a copy of a doctor's note or email it. You need to do this asap and specify freezes on all services. If you have Kids Klub, END IT. I went to Vivian who was there the last time I had an ER visit a couple years ago: this past December, I was injured again suddenly on site during a training appointment (due to my body/health situation, not my trainer or an exercise injury) and I let her know I was getting a ride to the ER this time instead of an ambulance, since it was a was a touch less urgent. She was responsive this day and seemed to enter the freezes correctly. I dropped off the first note 2 days later to support a freeze for a couple months since a major surgery would get scheduled. I was told I had an 8" growth and cancer in my blood and had to wait the entire winter holidays for further info until doctors were back in the hospital. A few weeks later the billing began... I called Vivian and mentioned my bank was informed of my condition and knew to not pay the bills until a certain date. She laughed and said I'd be billed later anyways. I felt like "I have cancer again, I could die this time with this huge growth. She's laughing at me." I know it was not personal, but forgive me, I'll never forget the feeling of thinking I might die and getting this is the response while asking for help. My health is poor after surviving breast cancer treatments in 2020 and they wrecked parts of my body but eradicated an aggressive form of breast cancer. I don't want to go into how bad the type is, but the odds are very bad with that type and they use the highest doses of their most aggressive chemo to eradicate the cancer. That's why I struggle and have gone to the ER twice in a couple years. But working out improves my condition, so it's essential. I'm so glad I found out a few days later that the current ER test was a misdiagnosis. I eventually received a big surgery, recovered and called in to sort out the bills that were waiting for me. Because I was experienced in navigating the disorganized billing practices, it was a smaller bill this time. I reached a teleservice rep who had her manager Mark look into it and it was fixed after 3 phone calls for a full refund. I know it's not personal. But I've decided that clearly this is not customer service at all. This is just workers, protecting themselves and the company and you just have to advocate super quick, do the footwork and calls and take notes, document, stay on it, trust nothing, stay positive and confirm and be persistent. Most businesses exhibit hospitality and customer service at an average level. Often if a medical incident occurs you'll get a compassionate response and excellent customer care. Not here, you will get compassion at first and solutions that fall through. Then they will lose confidence and be strained but still attempt to help. Eventually, it requires an escalation and manager intervention to correct the situation. The in-gym customer service experience will be good about situational things like everyday interactions. But if your issue has ANYTHING to do with billing, there is no safety net no matter how serious your medical situation. Had I only had a normal membership instead of a training membership too, I probably could have just canceled or never been the wiser. I'm actually hopeful no one ever has to experience this zone that they are weak at. But if you do, stay flexible, positive, and stay on it. Good luck and good health! I saw billing fees,

One of my favorite things in life is when something you truly hoped might happen appears, like a…read moremagic lamp wish granted! My wish was simple - the option for lovely holistic body treatments that I have experienced in big cities like Sacramento and LA, but accessible in our day to day life in our beloved small towns like Martinez. There's so much charming greatness to be found in the burbs, so why not the simple luxuries as well? Lucky for you and me, that day has arrived. Owners Angela and Martin have opened InsideOut with two fabulous infrared saunas, a salt therapy room on the way soon, and their endless supply of good and welcoming vibes. First things first - if you've never experienced an infrared sauna but are like me and kinda addicted to sweating (if you know, you know!), you are going to love it. Infrared heat as opposed to the old school approach of simply heating the air around you is much easier on the body (you don't feel like you're breathing fire in the desert, you truly do feel the difference of the infrared actually penetrating your body and warming you from the inside - a healthier and far cleaner holistic treatment). Enough with the science, back to the luxury! The sauna units are located inside small private suites, well equipped with water, towels, various supplies to prep you before and after treatment, and a small remote control to change the lighting inside the unit (light therapy really changes the vibe, play with it and have fun!). Once inside, there's lovely spa music, which can be adjusted to whatever you like or turned off, and a backrest for total comfort during your session. I love how each treatment is so personal - I've sat in silence, I've read a book, I've watched an episode of my current binge show. Your sweat session is what you make it! Also chat with the owners about what session is best for you - I'm a fan of the cardio program because it offers the 1-2 punch of high heat AND a long session, but there are so many other options like weight loss or anti-aging. It only took one session for me to sign up for a monthly membership, and visiting InsideOut has quickly become a highlight of my week! Angela and Martin have made me feel like family so quickly, and it's an absolute pleasure to support this new and unique small business in beloved downtown. I so look forward to continuing my visits and witnessing their evolution! Do not hesitate to add a visit to InsideOut to your next trip downtown - to relax after work, to keep on sweating after a workout, or whatever suits you best. If you're like me, it will be one of the greatest discoveries of your year!

I had tried sculpting couple months prior but the results were not enough for me to continue so I was a bit hesitant to try it again but I'm happy I did. Kietha is very thorough she asked about my diet, living style, health issues and concerns, then creates a plan that will give the best results. She told me 4/5 treatment to get to my goal. With a trip planned for Jamaica in 4 weeks I decided to start that day. After treatment she gave complete instruction on what to do for the next couple of days. She even checked in with me couple of times over the days between treatments. As she stated in 4 treatments over 4 weeks I was excited about the results and hit my goals I was ready to go on vacation more confident in my body look. In short from prior treatment, during treatment and after treatment she is committed to getting you results by being professional, thorough and caring while using the best products and devices! Oh and that heated massager she has on the table to help you relax is
