GYM SCAM ALERT. DO NOT JOIN THIS GYM…read more There are gyms that thrive by offering quality equipment and services. And, unfortunately, there are gyms that stay in business by tricking and defrauding their customers. Please feel free to read about my experience below and decide for yourself if you really want to risk Fitnessland. I joined Fitnessland in October 2014 and signed up for a year-long contract. In December 2014, I found another gym much better suited to my needs and stopped training at Fitnessland. I honored my contract and did not try to break it. In July 2015, I personally went to Fitnessland to cancel my membership in advance of the end of the contract. I talked with the Fitnessland agent who signed me up in October 2014. When I arrived at Fitnessland, I noted that my entry code no longer worked. I was no longer granted access to the building. The agent searched for my name in the Fitnessland customer database. My name was not in the database. The agent said that he could not cancel my membership if I were not a member. I left and considered the contract cancelled. Fitnessland then "auto-renewed" my contract for another year. I went to Fitnessland to discuss this error, assuming it would be worked out agreeably. Another agent, a very unfit-looking guy in a filthy sweat suit, started screaming at me to leave. It seemed to be well rehearsed, as if he had such conversations every day. In any case, after dealing with lawyers, I finally paid these worthless thugs the money they were hoping to steal from me. Fitnessland is a bad gym. A very unpleasant and unfit staff. Shabby equipment. But they know their game. I wish them luck. You have now been warned...

One of the most challenging things when traveling is finding a gym to workout with good equipment…read moreand a motivating atmosphere. While in Erlangen for business, I have used XXL Fitness in the past and went there again this time. I like this gym, a good find. First of all, it lives up to its name. It's big, real big. It has room after room after room of equipment, free weights, aerobics, cardio, etc. It's pretty certain you'll find your fitness need in XXL whatever your niche may be. If you are a bodybuilder, you will find a huge variety of equipment. If you are into general fitness, you are in luck also as there is plenty of resources available as well. The cardio area is large and the aerobics room is expansive. I have had great workouts here. A good amount of gym goers right after work time but I have not ever considered it overcrowded compared to other gyms I have gone to. The staff have been polite and helpful, and they offer a great 10 visit plan to buy for visitors/non-members. I've had positive interactions with fellow gym goers there and there is a great workout atmosphere. Bottom line: I like this gym. It matches the name, in that it is a huge facility filled with a lot of equipment for any type of fitness/bodybuilding enthusiast looking for their workout need. Helpful staff and great workout atmosphere. I am a fan of this gym and will continue to use it when in Erlangen.
