I generally avoid gyms, preferring to do my strength training on my own through techniques I've acquired over the years from being a competitive soccer player and professional ski coach. In the past, I've belonged to many gyms and simply didn't enjoy going. Frankly, the only reason I joined Snap in Springfield was that I was staying in Vermont for a month at a house that didn't have a pull-up bar. Otherwise, I'd never have considered joining. In retrospect, I'm glad that I did.
If the clean and friendly environment at Nola's gym is representative of the way Snap does business at all locations, then I would not hesitate to join at other locations. I very much looked forward to working out there. There were people from all walks of life, with different levels of athletic ability and fitness, all of whom were welcoming and respectful of one another--I think, a product of the warm environment created by Nola and her staff.
It is almost always clear when someone is passionate and dedicated to the work that they do; I found that to be the case at Snap's Springfield VT location. And the result was a very positive experience. read more
