Visiting an out of town gym can be hit or miss, but Outer Banks Sports Club is a must if you're…read morelooking for weight training on the Outer Banks. I am far from a serious weightlifter, but wanted to keep up with my training during our two week stay in Nags Head. First big pro was that I could sign up for my two-week membership online before I arrived, and my first visit took less than 5 minutes to get my key tag and finalize my membership. Membership includes towel service which, especially for those on vacation like me, is a big plus. Additionally, the locker rooms provide (non-locking, open) cubbies, toilets, a sauna, and three showers. During each of my 7 visits, I found the locker rooms to be clean and never without a clean towel. The gym itself has just about every piece of equipment you could want, and I never found myself having to wait too long for equipment, benches, or squat racks. Some equipment is a little more well-loved than others, but there are also some brand-spanking new pieces of equipment, so the owners are clearly putting money back into new equipment. And the more well-loved pieces are still functional, just with some wear and slightly uneven resistance at times. But by far the most impressive thing was the gym culture. Had a chance to chat with a few regulars, and each was awesome and supportive. A guy I'd never met before and who clearly spends a lot of time in the gym came over and gave me a fist bump and encouraging word after pushing through the last few reps of a tough set. It's hard to put a price on that kind of culture. Overall, well worth the price for me. I'll for sure be back next year!

Facility itself is not very clean as well. Only bright spot were the employees, who seemed friendly. Does this gym get the job done as a temporary solution to keep up with workouts, yes, but it ain't pretty.

But 45lbs is 45lbs, no matter how rusty it is. Didn't check out the upstairs cardio, I imagine it ain't pretty, but it's effective. Just walk on the beach if you want pretty cardio huh?

They have encouraged me and shown me modifications of exercises when I needed it! Not once have I felt judged or less then anyone of them for being over weight! Here is to my weight loss journey with RIFL! I also love that it's on the island and they have so many awesome classes and instructors!

Too early for a fair rating, but recently signed up for a one-year membership. These are my early…read moreimpressions: It is a small-to-medium sized facility and packed with maintained equipment. The selection of cardio and weight training is well-rounded for a person who takes their training seriously. The place is suitable for those who wish to execute their workout routine and leave, instead of people who want to hang out and be sociable. Workout equipment includes stair step machines, arm weights, a couple of bench press benches and several squat cages. Also, treadmills and lots of Nautilus machines . Music is piped in. Helpful staff are available a couple of periods per day. Cleaning spray is available for each change of users on the equipment. Bring your own towel and water. If I had to pick one thing to improve the gym it would be a shower stall for rinsing up after work outs.

She did a good job of balancing those that were new and gave options for them, but also not making it too easy of a class where you feel like you didn't do much. Overall you will not be disappointed if you're looking for a fun, relaxing beach yoga class! Very reasonably priced as well compared to some of the studios that do beach yoga as well.
