This is a review of the Renegade Fitness Gym located on Fargo Rd. very close to the intersection of Rte 85 and the I-395 overpass. There are multiple Renegade Gym locations in SE CT and one in Westerly RI. The Waterford location is the largest Renegade Gym occupying a facility that once was a racquet club encompassing three full-size indoor tennis courts. Parking is excellent in front of the main entrance, at the side of the facility, and in an adjoining dedicated lot. I joined Renegade in the summer of 2020 and have always easily found parking. The club fully complies with the local Ledge Light health requirements and during the time period when masking was required ejected people refusing health regulations. The Gym supports multiple group classes such as silver sneakers classes (free for most insured seniors) and group exercise classes. There are trainers for individuals and small groups, eg seniors with neuropathy and balance concerns. There are a very large number of exercise machines, several indoor racquetball courts and an indoor astroturf area, and a short running track, eg. for weighted sled exercises. The club is always staffed. Check-in is with an indoor keycard and there is no external keycard access outside of open hours. Anyone concerned with personal security should feel very comfortable. The Gym is open unusually early. Check the web for hours. I suggest stopping by, looking around, and asking the staff about the club. I have no affiliation with Renegade and am a very satisfied 79-year-old senior customer. read more
