Visiting an out of town gym can be hit or miss, but Outer Banks Sports Club is a must if you're…read morelooking for weight training on the Outer Banks. I am far from a serious weightlifter, but wanted to keep up with my training during our two week stay in Nags Head. First big pro was that I could sign up for my two-week membership online before I arrived, and my first visit took less than 5 minutes to get my key tag and finalize my membership. Membership includes towel service which, especially for those on vacation like me, is a big plus. Additionally, the locker rooms provide (non-locking, open) cubbies, toilets, a sauna, and three showers. During each of my 7 visits, I found the locker rooms to be clean and never without a clean towel. The gym itself has just about every piece of equipment you could want, and I never found myself having to wait too long for equipment, benches, or squat racks. Some equipment is a little more well-loved than others, but there are also some brand-spanking new pieces of equipment, so the owners are clearly putting money back into new equipment. And the more well-loved pieces are still functional, just with some wear and slightly uneven resistance at times. But by far the most impressive thing was the gym culture. Had a chance to chat with a few regulars, and each was awesome and supportive. A guy I'd never met before and who clearly spends a lot of time in the gym came over and gave me a fist bump and encouraging word after pushing through the last few reps of a tough set. It's hard to put a price on that kind of culture. Overall, well worth the price for me. I'll for sure be back next year!

Facility itself is not very clean as well. Only bright spot were the employees, who seemed friendly. Does this gym get the job done as a temporary solution to keep up with workouts, yes, but it ain't pretty.

Update: Third summer coming to CrossFit OBX. This is a…read moregreat box to get your WODs in, whether you're a year-rounder or just dropping in during vacation. In-season, the weeklong pass is the way to go. The facility itself is spacious (at the end of a warehouse), and split into two rooms; one open space for classes, and another backroom for open gyms with lifting equipment (racks, benches, etc.). Three lavatories that I counted, however only one water dispenser; be sure to bring a water bottle! The building itself gets pretty hot and humid in the summer, but that's the nature of the OBX. Classes itself are well structured with a good warmup. In-season, it seems like the majority are drop-ins, but everyone's pretty friendly; just be respectful, same as at any box. Coaches are great, very involved and take the time to try to know all of the athletes. Over the past few summers, it seems the programming has started to incorporate more variety, which I've enjoyed. That said, they do program for RX/Games level athletes, so don't be afraid to scale! Overall, I really enjoy coming here each summer I'm visiting, and look forward to being back again next year.

It was the highlight of my week.
