The entire team here is incredible and the members are awesome as well. We have both done personal training (my trainer was Kam) here and learned a lot and we go to the Sunday class most often . Ascent is both welcoming and accommodating to folks of all identities and abilities and of all sizes. As someone with concerns about environments that can foster an environment where counting calories and weighing in are encouraged or emphasize is put on size, Ascent is the exact opposite. Ascent is a wonderful unicorn place where people can go just to learn how to better move their bodies and grow stronger and find victories that have nothing to do with size- like hiking longer distances, or having less back pain, or being able to lift more. They always offer alternative exercises to meet people where they're at which is super refreshing. They also host so many great events and series classes like queer inclusive self defense. We drive from a fair distance away because the community here is so much better and they have a mission you can't help but support. By far the best collective group of humans I've met since moving to Washington and that is such a testament to the owners Luca and Katie!

The…read moretrainers are down-to-earth and supportive, the environment is friendly and encouraging, and the workouts kick my butt every time. The focus at this gym is functional fitness, so you do a variety of exercises each time you go--including crawling, get-ups, weights (and body weight exercises), lunges, etc. I also love that the trainers will give plenty of modifications as needed, as I'm limited in shoulder mobility due to an injury. Their main format is small group classes, but personal training and open gym hours are also available. Which works for me, became I'm way more accountable when I'm in a class anyway! I've gotten noticeably stronger since I first started, which has helped me not only in my work and at home, but with my self-confidence overall. Exercise really is the best self care. Thank you, Ascent Fitness!

Many gyms do the "workout of the day" and their trainers are only focused on their own image in a mirror, or on those that spend the most amount of money. Not here! Here each workout is new and challenging. I also an impressed with how focused the trainers are on form and nutrition. You are never left without constant support. I primary train with Dusty for small group and he is amazing. I also recommend Eric, Kyle and Katie. You will see results quickly here! If you are not currently active, or are intimated at first, the staff and their clients will put your mind at ease.

But, John and Anna have definitely changed my mind! TRX is a total body workout that tones, strengthens and builds muscles. I've only been to 5 classes but they are always fun.....difficult, but fun.

It's always pleasant, easy to sign up, affordable (especially with their groupon deals) and on time. Classes are an hour and totally worth the time if you have it. Tip: bring water, a small towel and an open mind. Oh, and stretch. Stretch a lot. Like, seriously.....a lot.

I'd never done personal training before, but a friend recommended Summit and I've been partaking in several sessions monthly. Working out with a trainer is much better for me personally, and I've started to see results somewhat instantaneously. I certainly feel the difference between working out solo vs being held accountable and being personally coached. Via Summit I've worked with two trainers and fancied them both - Robert and John are awesome! John has years of coaching and training both professional athletes, various teams, and individuals such as myself. Robert was a college athlete and is in prime shape himself, and he really kicked my butt at my sessions. Bottom line, do you want to get in shape in a more structured, efficient manner or beat around the bush flailing on your own? I'll continue with my PT and am stoked to have found this gem of a gym (2 locations).

And in the results of the test, Blake can dissect your health and fitness with incredible depth and make ballpark suggestions on what to do to improve that you'd otherwise have to go through rigorous and expensive testing elsewhere to basically get offered the same advice. And best of all the service is so cheap and Blake is so friendly.

Can't say enough good things about this gym. I started going a little over a month ago and I walked…read morein there with so many pain issues in my low back, mid back, upper back and neck that I'd been dealing with for about 15 years. The disuse of the muscles due to pain has caused a lot of problems with my shoulders, hips and plenty more. I've spent a fortune over the years going to massage, PT and Chiropractic only to ever get temporary relief. I went to The Club with hopes of developing long lasting strength and stability. During my initial consultation the owner said right off the bat that Jesse was the right fit for me. His training and credentials were impressive and we got started right away. Turns out he was right. Based off the intake and symptoms I described, Jesse knew exactly what to focus on and developed an individualized plan to fit my needs all the while being aware of my limitations. I've been training for a little over a month now and I couldn't be happier where things are at. There was a pain between my shoulder blades that I thought would always be there that doesn't hurt at all. My low back is more stable and is holding up longer and longer. Im doing exercises I never thought myself to be able. For the first time in my life I feel hopeful that having a ton of pain might not be a lifelong issue which every doctor and specialist has told me it would be. Aside from my personal experiences...the gym itself is great. The equipment and machines are all kept in great condition. The gym isn't very big but they have everything you need and it's perfect for a personal training gym. I've never had to wait for a machine or piece of equipment. The entire staff is friendly and welcoming. And I think that covers everything. Like I said...only good things to say about this gym. Worth every penny.

Additionally they truly promote the community feel at Town, something I truly value in Crossfit. It's been a few months now since I've joined Town and the improvements I've made thanks to the coaches are unbelievable.
