I've been coming to this gym for a few months now, and I'm so glad I found Excel Health and…read moreFitness. What really sets this gym apart from others I've been to is how involved and supportive the coaches are. From day one, they made me feel welcome and encouraged. They take the time to explain the exercises, make sure you're doing them correctly, and truly help you get the most out of each workout. One extra touch that really stands out is how involved the owner, Danny, is. He actually takes the time to check in with you, see how things are going, and make sure you're feeling supported. Even the motivating emails make a difference -- they help keep you accountable and remind you why you're showing up in the first place. This gym feels less like a place you just work out and more like a community that actually cares about your progress. Highly recommend if you're looking for encouragement, guidance, and a place that genuinely wants to see you succeed.

I was recently reminded that I've been a member at Excel for seven years now- crazy how time flies!…read moreI first joined this gym to train with the competitive athletes but was surprised by how much I fell in love with the gym and its incredibly positive and uplifting community. Community is a big deal here, and building it is one of the main focuses of the gym. The coaches are also great at providing knowledgeable/personalized feedback. I know people are hesitant to invest in a CrossFit membership ($$) but coming from someone who's paid for multiple gym memberships and barely used them, this one is definitely worth it. The value is in having a whole community help push you towards your fitness goals. So many days I didn't feel like training but then started working out with friends and all of a sudden, it's like you're playing a game. Everyone is beyond friendly here and finding people willing to suffer through a WOD with you is pretty easy. If you want to have fun and improve your health and fitness in the process, I'd definitely recommend Excel for you.

I did not have a good experience at Valley. The front desk…read moreworker I believe her name was Jackie was extremely rude when I was asking her about my membership. She said I could talk to a manager but then never had one come up or call me back. She made my experience terrible and had the worst customer service! For that I canceled my membership and will be going to inshape! Don't recommend have a better attitude if you're going to be at the front desk !

I've been going to Valley Fitness for a while now and the improvements they've made recently really…read moredeserve recognition. The cleanliness of the gym has improved a lot compared to before. Almost every time I'm there, I see staff actively cleaning the floors, wiping down machines, and making sure equipment stays sanitary. It's clear that they're putting effort into keeping the place clean and comfortable for members. Another thing that stands out is how friendly and welcoming the staff is. Everyone at the front desk is polite and helpful, and they always greet people when they walk in. The three manager ladies who are usually there especially deserve a shoutout--they're always professional, approachable, and doing a great job keeping things running smoothly. You can tell they genuinely care about the gym and the members. There are plenty of treadmills, ellipticals, cable machines, squat racks, benches, and free weights, so it's easy to get a full workout without feeling limited.
