Our gym closed last month... so we joined…read more First, the good points: large turf area with lots of functional fitness options (box jumps, battle ropes, tires, etc). Large free weight area with multiple squat racks. Cardio equipment on the 2nd floor as well as 4 indoor racquetball courts. Pool and hot tub are currently closed so can't speak on those. The bad: some equipment is showing age (the rowing machines as an example) and are not thoroughly cleaned. There is not a large staff to clean or monitor. Many gym members do not rerack their equipment properly or wipe equipment down. Part of the issue is minimal cleaning stations throughout the gym. Instead, there are spray bottles at the entrance for members to walk around with and use. This can be cumbersome. I'd prefer cleaning stations with wipes or spray bottles and paper towels centrally located. Locker room is decent. Haven't had to shower here but definitely bring shower shoes! If new to fitness or lifting, walk in with a plan. If you decide to go with one of their trainers, you do get locked into a contract so understand that going in.

Greeted with the most negative employee (he may be the owner I'm not sure), don't bother with the…read moreday pass they'll still charge you for $20 even if you would possibly buy a membership bc you visit the same hotel often but he was so rude and uninviting no thanks. Gym smelled like a moldy old building as well and not many machines. Don't waste your time here, will be telling hotel to send guests elsewhere.

So, it's a gym. My current gym is good except for lack of parking and I have a new office further…read moreaway. World gym has different pricing plans which makes adding a second gym affordable if I keep both. This one is inside the Greeceridge Mall. It's bigger than I thought it would be as well. It's a bit dark and dingy on the inside but it's a gym so.... Staff was friendly enough giving me my key tag as I'd registered online. No tour was offered and I had to ask where the locker rooms were. I could have asked for a tour but just figured it out on my own. It's a large locker room area with locker room stuff. There is a sauna, showers, etc. Bring your own lock! Note: the carpets throughout the facility need replacing. They are in a sad state! There is ample equipment. Lots of cardio machines, free weight area, and weight machines. Bring your headphones and get to work. If you are new to weight training, I suggest working with a trainer until comfortable. The weight area needs more safety clips as I had to really search for some when lifting. A few of the cardio machines were in need of repair and none of them have their own TVs which should just be the standard at this point. But, it gets the job done!

I have been a member here for about a year. The reason I joined is because I was training with UFO…read moreFitness. The gym moved to a new location and I was unable to reach them by phone because they were open but didn't have any working phone lines established at the new location. Also, they had no internet or computer access to members information. I had to drive to the location to talk to someone about my membership. Also, The gym opened their new location without a dedicated woman's locker room or restrooms for women. They had created makeshift changing areas for women with a curtain type situation without lockers or showers available. Restrooms are in a different location as well. This means that you have to change in one area, use a bathroom in another area and have nowhere to secure your belongings as well as no shower. All the while male members had access to a complete locker room with showers and lockers. I talked to Jim the other day regarding women not having equal access to amenities that male members have. Female members are paying the same membership fees as male members while not having equal access to amenities that male members have. I inquired as to when a women's locker room and showers would be available. Jim told me that they don't have the funds for this construction to be done at this time. He could not give me a time frame as to when this construction would take place. Needless to say, I have canceled my membership. I also had to pay for two months that were left on my contract. Poor customer service and unequal access for female members.

There's a lot going on in the area. Plenty of parking. The studio follows the format of hour long classes and accountability. They offer various challenges throughout the year. If you like Studio gym formats and an hour long program this could be for you.

My name is Daniel Sharlow and I completed the core body challenge at the Core Capacity Studio in…read moreHenrietta.  The program was great.  I lost 23 pounds and 7.2% body fat.  The diet plan that is provided is strict but it helps you instantly start seeing a change week by week.  I lost on average about 4 pounds a week it is nice to see the change to keep you going during the process.  Their instructors Renee, Mike, and Larry also helped keep me going and pushed me to help reach me goal.  They helped me realize when I needed more weights or if my form was off.  Without the team at Core Capacity I would be living a way different lifestyle (very unhealthy) still.  I have learned how to properly control my diet and how much and when I should eat.  The classes are great! They are structured to help you get your heart rate up and have different levels for where you are at per exercise in your challenge.  If you want to take it up a notch the coach is right there to give you advice and help you out.  I am so glad that Core Capacity offered this challenge and I would recommend it to anyone who is looking to make a healthy change in their life!
