    The good: Love the classes. Instructors are really nice and care about form and mobility of…read moreindividuals. They keep up variety with the workouts. They do an awesome job! Decent weight machines (few fixable issues) and free weights. Sauna is always a treat after a workout. Front end staff and sales are friendly and professional. The bad: Cardio machines... Fix all the broken equipment at the Downingtown location: ellipticals, no cup holders for the elliptical machines- safety hazard placing water bottles on the floor, ab crunch machine that isn't securely bolted to the floor, and replace knobs for the leg extension machine because the numbers rubbed off. Today I saw 2 ellipticals with "out of order" signs. The elliptical next to those 2 is also out of order. I'm sure there's more. This gym is not kept up with or safe with some of the equipment. Also in the aerobics room, there's too many mats. West Chester LA Fitness never received their order for mats which might be the reason Downingtown has too many. Somebody's got to deliver them to West Chester. Other members have also wanted to just bring them to West Chester but agree that LAF needs to do this.

    Well, I gave LA Fitness another chance for a little while and not much has changed at the…read moreDowningtown or West Chester location. Both gyms are filthy with rusted out cardio machines. Planet Fitness, which is cheaper, maintains their gyms very well. Their machines are newer, and it's much cleaner. I'm switching to ACAC which is a palace compared to LA. If you're gonna go the cheaper route, Planet is the way to go, however. LA is just gross.

    Here's a quick summary for short attention span folks…read more This gym is expensive and worth every penny (to me). Your value prop might be different but if you want to feel good, have a staff who care about you, teach and guide you in a professional, friendly, unintimidating way, this gym is for you but you have to put in the time. My legs and back feel great which I was never able to achieve working out on my own. Marino's approach is quite different to what you are used to but you don't have to take my word for it, give them a call and setup up a free trial. 1. The facility is rectangular which lends itself well to conditioning workouts. You need the length so you can actually move. Exceptionally clean, 2 bathrooms and on nice days there is a large garage type door that is open bringing in fresh air. 2. Staff and semi private training. This is what you are paying for. Private personal trainers can cost anywhere from $40 to $70 an hour so the model at Marino's is to provide 2 to 3 trainers on the floor training several people at a time and this is done effectively because you have to schedule your time. This allows a given time slot not to be overrun upsetting trainer's attention. 3. Programs are provided based on your initial assessment and goals. Once a program is completed, another one is issued. This does several things. It keeps things fresh. Doing the same exercise routine over and over again is a guarantee you will quit a gym. It's tailored just for you and at the end of every program cycle, your input on what's working or not is taken into consideration on next program. If you injure yourself at home, develop tendonitis or any ailment that causes pain, the program can be changed at anytime to minimize your discomfort. 4. The staff (trainers and owners) are all higher Ed trained. They are all certified in CPR, defibrillators and have massage therapist onsite. Marino's has a registered dietician (RD), certified specialist in sports dietetics (CSSD). They're knowledgable, supportive and just nice people. 5. I'm coming up on 3 years here in Feb 2021 and my legs feel like marble columns, zero back issues and I can throw a ball again.

    I thoroughly enjoy both semi-private and the group classes. Both Chris and Rachel along with all my…read morecoaches do a PHENOMINAL job of tailoring each workout to your needs, always ensuring that you have correct form and technique to prevent injuries and are keeping oneself safe while maximizing the effectiveness of the exercise. I have been training at Marino's Fitness for 3.5 months now and already feel stronger and have more endurance. All the coaches are compassionate and truly care about helping you achieve your fitness goals. I love the wide flexibility Marino's provide to be able to schedule the session for each day. Rachel's constant guidance for the right nutrition keeps us on track. Marino's Fitness rocks!!!

    When I first started boxing I went to your typical chain boxing gyms. But then a year ago I…read morefollowed Drew to a new gym that was not a boxing centered gym but he taught boxing classes there. Only just to be a stepping stone while he was putting together his amazing family owned gym! When he finally opened the doors to Society Boxing and Fitness on December 1,2018 there was nothing but family coming together to make sure it was all ready to go for opening day! From the start this gym has been one big family! Going into a gym you always worry about people judging you or just not being very friendly! Especially in a small gym like this there is none of that. Each and every member is welcomed by Drew and Heather with open arms and are treated like family! I call this gym a second family from all the friendships that I have made over the last year! When I started training with Drew I had so many fears with boxing since I only ever had one good trainer who started teaching me and then had one who had no clue what they were doing. But within a few one on one sessions Drew really made those fears disappear and made me feel so much more confident. Coming from playing D1 sports I have always had the competitive edge to me and I love that Drew brings that out in me some days and really pushes me to overcome my hesitations. I could not be happier with my decision to start working out with Drew and to be a part of the awesome group of people in the gym! When people ask what I've been doing, my reply is "Whatever Drew says!" I trust his methods, knowledge and advice completely and will continue to work with him as long as he'll have me as a client! If you are looking an amazing gym that is a family you should come try out Society Boxing and Fitness! You will not feel like the new person at all because we welcome everyone and make them feel at home from the time they walk through the doors!

    There is no other place around like this. Intense, but very achievable workouts, heavy bags to get…read moreall your stress out, and a phenomenal staff! The owners and trainers really care about making sure you get the most out of your workout, and give you instruction on how to improve! All of the clients are friendly as well, no egos here! I look forward to going to each and every class...I never feel like I have to drag myself there. I highly recommend!
