MADabolic is effective, friendly, and structured. The trainers at MADabolic immediately made me…read morefeel welcome, as does the community that has been formed there. The trainers are very clear about the movements of the daily workout, the proper form needed to execute the moves safely, and the methods MADabolic uses for keeping the class organized. MADabolic is an intense workout, but one that is great for all skill levels. Whether you're trying to get into fitness, or trying to refine your physique, MADabolic is a great place to accomplish goals. It is very nice to have talented trainers that shape the workouts, so that I don't have to wander around a jungle of weight machines, wondering what you should do next. I recommend coming by and trying the 10 days for $10 package. You can see a variety of workouts, meet the trainers, and see if it is the right fit for you.

There are many gyms to choose from in Asheville but this one is different in many ways. From the…read moremoment you step in the door the coaches and community not only welcome you but ensure you are comfortable within their beautiful clean space. All of the coaches are well versed in many different areas of lifting techniques, strength and conditioning, injury prevention and also working with previous or current injuries using a scientific approach. During my first month there deadlifts showed up and I was able to explain my previous back injury from previous deadlifts and how I was physically and mentally affected. Strength Ratio coaches were able to listen and understand. We broke the movement down to a simpler form which allowed me to still participate but also allow me to start healing from my fear. Through many cycles of progression of new movements and building strength I can now fully deadlift without pain or exercise. There are endless amounts of examples to share but the bottom line is if you are looking for a place to grow stronger and have an absolute great time around a circle of positive folks... this is your place!!

We have an app for workouts daily at home, weekly coach check ins, and hysterical weekly challenges, newsletters, zoom socials and more!

This place is one of my favorite gyms I have ever been to. I live across the street and had always…read moreseen 9 round but never really thought to give it a try. A friend of mine who is an avid gym-goer was in town this past weekend and convinced me to give it a try. It was one of the best workouts I've had in a long while. Hunter, the guy working that day, couldn't have been nicer and guided me through each work out station with patience (I've been out of shape the past couple of years). It's a little pricey per month but the drop in fee apparently is only $15 so I plan to come back at least once or twice a month for a great work out. Highly recommend! Oh and your first work out is free!

I'm in town for about 2 weeks to work, and 9 Round has been a great place to workout! Super…read moreconvenient because you can drop in and start the workout whenever you want. I've worked out with two different trainers so far. Even though Rush had a sore throat, he was still a great trainer who pushed me hard (I told him before we started to destroy me). I hope that I can make it there again before I leave on a day when he is working. Get in here and get your workout done in 30 minutes. Plus, if you're visiting AVL, a drop in only costs 5$. You can't beat it!

This franchise uses a third party billing system called peak payment solutions to extract money…read morefrom their members. Even if you are not under any sort of contract or commitment they will not allow you to cancel your membership directly. You are instead instructed to address it with the billing company. This makes it next to impossible to cancel the membership, so your only course of action is to simply stop paying them. Then Peak payment solutions will immediately start charging you late fees and will start threatening collections and calling relentlessly within a week of a missed payment. It is illegal to try to extort payment out of people, who are under zero contractual commitment to pay you, by threatening collection.

Gold's has a spacious work out area (including a small private space for women). They have an incredible array of machines, from aerobics, (stairs, ladders, rowing, elliptical) to all the various free weights and equipment for targeted exercises by several brands. There is seldom a wait time to get on a machine. My favorite regular class is Yoga with Pharrell. There are a range of classes by type and fitness levels. A cross section of society makes up the clientele and they are serious about staying in shape. There is always parking and staff are friendly and helpful.
