    Dark and gloomy along with a very unfriendly front deck and manager named JACKIE who has no…read morecustomer service skills with a big CHIP on her shoulder. I decided to go to CLARK location and it was an upgrade.

    I had a horrible experience with this LA fitness location. I'll admit at first they were great,…read morethey had flexible plans for a reasonable price which I appreciated. However this gym is not great for any one who actually lifts. The equipment is bad and due to my height some of it didn't even work for me, which is expected for a few machines, but not to the extent of this gym. There is no place to do exercises with a barbell besides bench and squat. There is only ONE squat rack in this gym that is adjustable, the other two, you cannot adjust the safeties which wouldn't work for the exercises I wanted to do. No deadlift platforms or bumper plates. Dumbbells are a mess even on the weekends when it's not crowded. For the cable machines they are little attachments available to choose. For these reasons, I chose to cancel my membership as I realized it be unsustainable for me to complete my workouts here. Trying to cancel this membership within the guidelines of my contract was a nightmare. I was well within my rights to cancel my membership within 3 days of registering. However when I tried to cancel my membership in person they said I can't do that unless I come back when the operations manager is there from 9 to 5, Monday through Friday. For me and most people this does not work as we work those same hours. Additionally, in the contract it says nothing about contacting an operations manager. It explicitly states you can go to the gym you signed up for and cancel your membership. I had to ask for the operations manager phone number, which was just the phone number for the gym. I called the next morning during business hours and was told the operations manager was in the middle of something and when I said I was going to refer to the contract that says I can also cancel by calling, the person at the desk hung up on me. I called back and let them know that I would like the operations manager to call me when she was available and was told that they would tell her but she usually doesn't call customers. Luckily, I called back an hour later and a different person answered and I was able to speak to the operations manager and she canceled my membership in less than two minutes. I would not have been as upset if the people at the front desk did not LIE to me and would actually abide by the contract signed! A business cannot expect their customers to abide by a contract when they will not. Other reviews echo the same experience. I can not recommend this business to anyone and would suggest to go anywhere else for this reason.

    Blink Fitness - South Orange - Typical representation of PureGym

    Blink Fitness - South Orange

    I have to be honest, before I went to this Blink location I was worried based upon the reviews…read morebelow. I can say honestly that my visit today was a mixed bag, but overall a good experience. Located in the same parking lot as a Stop & Shop in South Orange, Blink Fitness is in a medium-is sized building. When you enter you see the (relatively small) front desk. There was one person behind the counter and he helped check me in manually as the app was having some issues. When I told him this was my first visit he was very kind about offering to show me around if necessary. I thanked him and went to work out. I mainly used the open workout area which had two Bosu balls, plenty of Yoga balls, mats and foam rollers. There was a rack of smaller weights on the side. There were also boxes for jumps and some risers. Overall it was all the equipment you need for a pretty good body weight work out (which I always appreciate). Everything was fairly well organized and clean. I paid special attention to the ceiling tiles as I walked around and did not see any mold (but such things take time to appear if there is a problem). I also used a treadmill which worked without a problem. I was there around 8am on a weekday and there were plenty of free cardio machines. Most people seemed focused on the various weights and cable machines. The locker room looked clean swept and mopped. That said, there was a very curious smell outside the lockers and inside. I've been to plenty of gyms in my time and I know you're going to deal with some funk now and then, but this was something very different. It was bearable but I think they could do with a hit of industrial cleaners on the lockers, floors and shower walls to be safe. Overall I had a good experience and will be visiting this location again.

    The 5:00 AM Solidarity (Or Lack Thereof)…read more It is currently 5:20 AM on May 14, 2026, and I am standing outside a locked glass door like a Victorian orphan peering into a bakery--except instead of bread, I'm craving a rusted dumbbell and the smell of industrial-grade floor cleaner. Let's be incredibly clear: Nobody is here to socialize. If you see someone at the gym at 5:00 AM, they didn't wake up at the crack of "Why God?" because they were seeking human connection. We are not here to "network," we are not here to "vibe," and we certainly aren't here to hear about your weekend. The 5 AM Manifesto * Eye Contact is a Crime: If our eyes meet, it was an accident, and we should both legally be required to look at the floor for three to five business days. * The Purpose: We are here because we have internal demons that can only be silenced by repetitive heavy lifting or because our pre-workout kicked in at 4:45 AM and if we don't move a stationary bike soon, our hearts might actually exit our ribcages. * The Silence: The only acceptable sounds are the clanking of plates, the aggressive thud of a treadmill, and the collective, silent prayer that the employee with the keycard didn't oversleep. Current Status: The Great Lockout Right now, there are six of us in the parking lot. We are all staring at the door with the intensity of a heist crew waiting for the vault to blow. "We didn't get up before the sun just to watch the streetlights flicker, Brenda. Open the door so I can do three sets of squats and go back to being a functional member of society by 8:00 AM." To the staff member currently tucked under a warm duvet: You are standing between a group of highly caffeinated, sleep-deprived individuals and their only source of endorphins. For the love of all things holy, turn on the lights. We have a purpose. And that purpose is finishing this workout before our brains realize how much this actually sucks.

    Evolve Fitness Studio - members crushing a small group session

    I've been a member of Evolve for about 15 months and regularly take Yoga, Weekday Warrior (more…read morestrength based) and Alpha Burn (cardio and strength) classes. The yoga instructors each have a unique style which I appreciate. It's fun to mix it up each week. The classes are a little different than your typical vinyasa flow and might combine a slower flow with strength and core work, use of blocks, straps and other props, hip, heart and shoulder openers to counter all the sitting we regularly do, deep breathing, alignment and relaxation to end the class. Classes are small and Instruction is really individualized. Modifications are suggested if one can't do everything. The Weekday Warrior and Alpha Burn classes are similar, with Alpha adding more cardio into the mix. These are circuit-type classes where the students rotate exercises throughout. I love this time-based format because you work as hard as you can during the exercise period and then there's a short rest before the next exercise. Each class is a little different although exercises are repeated. These are small group classes with excellent instructors who correct form, suggest slight modifications if needed and really support your goals. Since I started at Evolve, my strength and flexibility have increased tremendously. I train consistently and safely. I have not suffered any injuries. Weight loss has not been my goal but I have lost body fat and increased muscle mass. Most important, I am healthy. At 50, my bloodwork is better than ever. Evolve is a wonderful community of trainers, instructors and clients of all ages with various fitness levels and goals. It's a welcoming place.
