As a VCU alum, I get a pretty decent deal on gym memberships at VCU fitness facilities, which includes both MCV and CSG. While MCV is more convenient to where I work/live and is much less crowded, the CSG is much better equipped. The cardio machines are mostly the same as MCV, there is just a much larger quantity. There is a much better variety of weight equipment, which is very much appreciated. Perhaps my favorite part of CSG is the pool. While there are only a few swim lanes, there is a big open area with a deep end that allows me to get in some pool running. The only other such pool I am aware of in the area is 20 minutes south of town. My biggest complaint is the crowdedness of the gym when school is in session. Even with the large quantity of equipment, popular machines and racks can still be hard to find, particularly in the evenings after work. Additionally, while I love the self-locking lockers, half of them don't work.

You come in, do 9 rounds of 3 minute each and have a 3 minute break in between. The trainer teaches you each round and will be there for anything you need during your workout. 30 min and you get a great full body workout with muscle work as well as cardio. You get a heart monitor you can wear and shows on the tv to help you see how you are doing along the way. Jess is the owner and she's awesome and super helpful. The other trainers are fantastic as well, good people all around. It's the best workout and nothing like it in town. I use to go to another kickboxing place and this is really great for letting out any frustrations and feeling good after. You get a free first time class so worth the try!

I've belonged to Gold's Gym for years and have found myself not going at all anymore, and just going to CO2Fit classes instead. Seo changes the exercises up regularly so you aren't bored doing the same thing all the time. She is also really good about working with your specific fitness level / needs. I have weak wrists from years of doing gymnastics, so it's hard for me to do exercises where my full body weight is on my wrist. She is so good now that she just automatically gives me an alternate exercise when we have heavy wrist weight activities! I regularly go to CO2Fit Xpress, Surf, and Running Group. I've also gone to Pound and BootCamp. I have no complaints about any of them!

I arrived early to check in and get a sense of the layout of this gym - they're all so different, but I was pleased to see this space was a decent size (much bigger than the postage stamp sized F45 I regularly go to).

I especially loved the industrial sized fans scattered throughout the space. Definitely recommend this F45!

I planned to attend a couple times a week, but now find myself going every weekday without fail. It helps that I've gained 20 pounds in muscle mass after just a few short months. X-Team isn't your typical gym. The group fitness classes are different everyday and it's truly a team atmosphere. You have both indoor and outdoor options as well as yoga and group runs. Because the workouts change everyday, it never gets boring or predictable. You also end up hitting every muscle group without having to think about what to do next. I couldn't recommend X-Team more highly!

The trial period was great, and I really wanted to become a member. The only thing that kept me from joining was .... gas. I live around 30 minutes away from the location and as you already know... making excess drives is not feasible right now. I really like that a person can log themselves to a bag using the Wrap app, keeping a log of their progress per session. It also makes it a lot easier to sign up for a class as well. They are in a very quaint location, but there is limited roadside parking, and you can't park on one side of the building due to it belonging to one of the businesses on the strip. You can park in the location closest to the restaurant that has outdoor seating. Very happy with the upkeep of the restrooms. I'm always going to give a heads up about a bathroom if I go to it, lol. Overall, I would say that you easily burn a minimum of 200 calories, and it is great accountability to stay active.

Parking fee in the parking deck is waived when you request a sticker from the YMCA desk. Extremely convenient for those working in the area or even if you want to workout before happy hour in Shockoe Slip. Like the other Reviews state, this location is indeed smaller than other Richmond branches. Smaller rooms, less equipment, and even smaller class offerings. The ceilings feel a bit low and confined, compared to that of other locations. The wooden floors in the group exercise room are noticeably bouncy. I'm not sure if this is intentional. Staff is extremely friendly, informative, and professional. Good customer service seems to be a priority. The main drawback is that, unless you've already researched this place online, it's impossible to find. I have driven past this location regularly for years without knowing of its existence. Fortunately, the staff from other businesses inside the James Center building seem to be familiar with the fact that YMCA members are NOT familiar with this branch.
