It has everything you need for every style of workout you could do, like powerlifting, body building, CrossFit, running, and even sports performance! The owners, Doug & Andrew are super cool and down to earth, and members are all really friendly, including the very intimidating powerlifters. Plus, you honestly can't beat the price. $60/month for unlimited use of the gym 24/7 with key fob, but they also offer personal training & sports performance coaching and have a powerlifting team (goals to join that one day!!!). If you do personal training, I highly recommend Shane! He's super cool and down-to-Earth, knowledgeable, and designs some workouts that will kick your butt into shape without being overwhelming or scary. One of the first leg workouts he gave me, I laughed a little because my first instinct as a former rugby player was that it was about to be an easy workout, but by the end my legs were jello and I was cursing (lol). Plus for personal training rates, the prices are awesome! If you join now, you can get in Shane's 6 week fitness challenge which has been great to meet new people in Indy!

I am only a basic member, so I can't vouch for the extra features like the pool and the sauna and the other classes. I go mainly for the weightlifting equipment and the open spaces. I like how there are two fitness greens in the gym which both offer plenty of room to exercise. The variety of weightlifting equipment is also pretty good, with a lot of different machines and cable stacks. The free weights are also pretty well stocked. My favorite area is the Olympic weightlifting area, which has four platforms and six squat racks which also have platforms. This area has a lot of mirrors so it's easy to keep your form in check. I have never used any of the class spaces but they all look really well kept from what I can see. They even recently updated one of their studios for weightlifting classes! I've been going there so you know I'll be back again!

Never have trouble finding one. I haven't used the weights much but in the morning there always seems to be enough. I really joined for the pool. It's always almost empty from 5-7 am and it is just really nice to be able to swim in a clean pool. I wear goggles, would highly recommend them. Hot tub is a plus as are the steam room and sauna. My fave part is using the massage chairs after my workouts. I pay 25 a month for everything. The lower membership doesn't have pool included. Fair price for what I use the gym for. Clean place, good music and good people.

The water pressure was a joke, you could have left the shower curtain open without any of the water splashing outside... and the water temp was hard to control, got hot quickly but hard to adjust the cold temp after. This one beats the downtown one by size and I like the parking lot.

One minute it's nice and empty and the next thing you're wondering if you're going to trip on your neighbors step while trying to spin around and keep up, lol. The instructor (Darian) gives a quick review in the beginning for new class takers but once the lights go out it's time to get down to business. The class is 45 minutes of high energy, great dancing music, and a million squats to get your booty nice and right for life. It is loud in the class with the music and instructor yelling over the mic, but I promise you once you get through your first class you'll be ready to come back for more. The high cardio workout is one of the best ones I've come across in a long time. You can buy a member ship with the Y and class is included or pay $20/class for drop ins......either way it's worth it.

You are not allowed past thigh deep in the water unless you pay an extra $10 an hour to do the obstacle course. Also, parking is not clearly marked. Small kids did seem to have a good time, so it might be worthwhile for families with little ones. Since Fishers residents get in free, it might also be a good dunning spot for you. They do allow outside food and coolers, if you want to pack a lunch, and offer coolers with drinks for sale at an inflated price. If you do decide to go, make sure to fill out the waver online ahead of time.

I asked if there was a place where they do sell drinks and snacks and I was told they do over by the Porta Potty but I really didn't see anywhere that these items were being sold Maybe there was someone back in the kayak shed they had those things available but I would just recommend you bring your own. They only have porta potty available which I personally not a fan of. The Sandy Beach area where I was laying had so many bees and wasps. I happen to have some bug spray in my bag so sprayed myself and the area where I was laying at and my towels in an effort to keep them away. Worked for short amount of time. The sand is very hard and uncomfortable. Bring chairs. It's $7 per person to get in if you're not a fisher's resident if your Fisher's resident it's free and probably more affordable if you have the group of kids because it is $10 extra for an hour of the kayak use and $10 extra to go beyond the roped area probably because they have this inflated play area that's tethered outside that roped area. They have a lifeguard on duty. Fill out the waiver before you go. If you have the money and bring your own food and drinks it could be a nice little outing for the family. If your not a resident of fishers though I'm sure there are more enjoyable options for $7, $10 or $27 per person. Also be prepared to bring cartloads to be able to enjoy or be comfortable.

Kids are constantly being hurt and refs are not making the calls because they are underpaid and overworked, so they want to get home. Or the refs say "they are only in 1st grade...etc" how will children ever learn if you allow them to continuously foul, travel, double dribble etc? Or you just have refs that referee like this is street ball. They have some amazing coaches. But be very careful when you are paying your thousands of dollars for your child or children to play. They advertise all coaches have played or coached at the high school, college or pro level. But that in fact is false. You can end up with a coach who has no experience listed anywhere online, no high-school stats, but went to college and got a degree in sports media. A coach whose teams are beat by 60+ points and no in game adjustments are ever made. And I know everyone has to start somewhere but I'd recommend a coach with no experience start off in a bite size league for 3 & 4 year olds. Coach Mike and Coach Ajay though 10/10. Pros. You can look them up and see all of their achievements. Absolutely amazing coaches and know what they are doing.

This park is one of the worst maintained that I have seen. The grass is cut, but that is about it. The park has a huge parking area, divided between a couple of lots. There are some basket ball goals in an area, but are set up in an odd arrangement that do not allow full court. There is a playground area there. It is lined with wood chips and has the older style swings, and some toddler swings. There is also two jungle gyms and a couple of slides. The playground is accesible, but the equipment is aged. The park also has a decent restroom facility, a disc golf course, and a fitness area. There are also 3 covered pavilions with picnic tables and grills that you can rent. The pavilions, however, are trashed. They are full of garbage and just plain nasty. The bright spots of the park are the aquatic center, the huge grassy fields, and the walking/jogging trail. The fields can be used for soccer, playing catch, flag football, flying a kite, or just throwing a blanket down and relaxing. There was a lot of people walking on the trail while I was there. The trail is pretty long and goes around the park in a circle. This park was in bad shape and in need of some serious help. Outside of the trail and field I do not see much utility for the park.
