I've belonged to many different gyms over the years, but Sound Fitness is definitely my favorite…read moregym of all! When you walk in, you are greeted by one of the friendly staff members (Madeline is so sweet!), and you'll notice the cleanliness of the facility, the first-rate equipment and the overall upbeat energy of the place. Everything you need for health and fitness is right here...classes, equipment/machines and personal trainers. CLASSES - I've really been enjoying the classes so much and the teachers are amazing. There is so much variety! I love taking Amie's BODYPUMP class, Brooke's TONE class, Diane's PILATES (Mat & Reformer) class and Tamara's YOGA class. There are lots of classes in addition to these that I haven't tried yet, so I recommend coming in to check out all they have to offer, as I'm sure you'll find classes that will be just the right fit for you. EQUIPMENT/MACHINES - There is a huge variety of equipment at Sound, along with many different weight machines to choose from. There are plenty of treadmills, ellipticals, cycling and stair machines...too many to list, actually. At Sound Fitness there is truly something for everyone and everything is always kept clean and well-maintained. PERSONAL TRAINERS - There are some wonderful personal trainers at Sound Fitness and I had the pleasure of working with Brooke (the owner) recently. She is amazing! She educated me on how certain exercises and just slight tweaks of form can make a huge difference in overall mobility and fitness. She is very knowledgeable and truly cares about her clients and gym members. Sound Fitness is the perfect gym, in my opinion...not too big as to overwhelm but just the right size for all of your fitness needs. I'm so glad to have found my "fit family" at Sound Fitness!

It is impossible to cancel your membership. They use a different company for your membership…read morepayment and that company doesn't answer the phone or emails. They will respond with a text message saying you have to send a cancellation request to an email not listed directly on their website and request you pay a cancellation fee even if you did not renew your annual membership. The mediocre gym is not worth the headache of cancellation.

The only good thing about this gym is the daycare Mrs. Linda. She only works in the am. The…read moretrainers are rude and will invade your personal space when they have clients. There are Old men who constantly stare at the women and make them feel uncomfortable. The high school kids come in after the front desk is closed and take off their shirts, VAPE, and don't clean up their weights. I recommend only going in the mornings. Also there are roaches in the sauna. Every time I go in I see them running on the floor. No excuses for this. The only reason I remain at this gym is the daycare. No other gym offers it in the area.

Planet Fitness on MLK in New Bern has definitely improved since the new management took over. The…read moreequipment is cleaner, the staff is responsive, and most importantly, stuff actually works! Some of the negative reviews here seem a little over the top. A bathroom being dirty once, your favorite machine being occupied, or one bad visit doesn't define an entire gym. I use the gym to work out, not inspect the place with a white glove or watch reruns of Friends. Give the new management and staff some credit. The improvement is noticeable. New Bern Rocks, maybe you should try again.

I never signed up for a membership, but I did go in there ONCE. For the past five months Planet…read moreFitness in New Bern has been charging my account for a full membership. I don't even live in New Bern anymore and haven't for almost three months. Tried reaching out several times, and they were supposed to stop charging me and issue a refund for the wrongful charges. Still waiting. I've since learned that Planet Fitness is known for doing this, so I don't recommend. At. All.

We have been to many Crossfit Gyms in Washington, DC, Pensacola, FL, San Diego, CA and Los Angeles, CA and would put CF Burn amongst the best. - Coaches are knowledgeable and come from a variety of different backgrounds - Programming is difficult, but the coaches are experts at scaling exercises to accommodate individual needs - Facility is in a great location, easily accessible from New Bern and MCAS Cherry Point Highly recommend for either the traveler passing through or the new New Bern resident.

Front desk definitely needs training. No one knows how to sign up Renew Active clients. The website…read moreclearly shows Renew Active can enroll at the gym, with a 9 digit number (vs a 16 digit for the Silver Sneakers option) yet the front desk employees insisted I HAD TO HAVE a 16 digit number, so I guess I'll be choosing a different gym til they can figure it out. The "eligibility checker" they use goes directly to Silver Sneakers (a totally different program). If you have Renew Active don't bother trying.

JUST BEWARE!!! A lot of the workers are nice people, but beware of the practices. They need to fix their system, but I do not believe they will. They can screw you over if you are not careful.

Next is price. $99 enrollment fee with 47 a month. Oh but you have to be locked into a one or two year contract? I transferred from California where I was a member of a 24 hour fitness which meant open 24/7 and had multiple facilities including a pool. I paid less with no contract. Golds gym had more locations with better staff and prices. I feel bad for the owners since I've never seen this place packed. Prob for a reason. Now they opened a crossfit area, oh but you have to pay for that too in addition to your monthly fees. Good luck to this gym as they will be bought out soon. Don't waist your time or money. Two thumbs down

The staff are friendly and helpful greeting you upon arrival and thanking you for stopping in as you leave. Their furniture is reasonably priced and just needs a little love to make it great again. Some of the pieces are even perfect the way they are! Need lighting? They have lamps, sconces, pendants and chandeliers! A little spray paint & new shade, and they'll be perfect! They even have a great hardware section. Who knew you could buy a bucket of new bolts, screws, nuts or nails at Habitat...just fill a $5 or $10 bucket! They graciously accept donations of used of anything needed for the house. I've made several drop offs, and they always thank me. This type of store is a treasure hunt. With donations being received daily, their inventory changes, so you need to visit it frequently to be rewarded!

They also had a lot of stuff out that still needed to be priced. I found a very old socket set I was interested in, but couldn't buy it because it was not priced yet. I did find a few bargains such as packs of cotter pins, hose clamps, screw extractor bits and heat shrink tubing for .25 cents a pack. The three stars for the store but five stars for the staff as they were friendliest, most helpful staff we have encountered at a Restore in a very long time.
