I only did the four week trial at a very discounted price because I was living in the area temporarily. However, I have never seen such extreme results in only four weeks time as I did when I took these classes 2 to 3 times a week. The group that I did the classes with felt like a close team and the coaches were extremely welcoming and not intimidating. Physically, I pushed my body in ways I never did before in quick bursts of interval training. Every class was different and I looked forward to each one. The workouts are short and varied enough that you feel like you can at least try anything, and the instructors always give an option to make it a bit easier and a bit harder with each exercise intro. Like I said, I have since moved away but am looking to get involved in a gym like this. It's more pricey than others but worth every penny bc I got way better results practically immediately than any other fitness program I've done.

After seeing these other Yelp reviews, I say I'm surprised more members haven't written on here…read moreyet. This gym is exceptional, especially if you are into bodybuilding and powerlifting. I've had my membership for almost 2 years, and never really had a complaint. Tons of versital equipment, separate rooms themed for different needs. Now, the amount of community this gym has is also unreal. Tons of people who are empowered to show there workouts, and recording themselves. (Some people don't like that, but that's okay.) Facebook is busy, Instagram is busy, and there are members of all shapes and sizes. The price is the most I've ever had on a gym membership, but I can't complain due to what's invested back into the gym. So whether you want to be an influencer, or just get in and get out kind of gym goer; you can find your place here. ​

Lighting Fitness (South Windsor) - Arguably one of the best gyms in the country, Steel Beach Gym -Oakville, Powerhouse -New Haven. I wish I never gave PSW my business. In response to the owners comment on my review: The only reason I even gave PSW business was because my friend was there. So you got buisness and brought in $ because you had a loyal customer. If it wasn't for my friend being there I wouldn't even step foot into PSW. Everyone has different experiences and you seem to just not listen. It seems as though a lot of people are having the same experiences and instead of changing and actually self evaluating you argue and get defensive on social media. This is a perfect example of what people are talking about. Not only did he put my personal visits on the internet for the public to see but he was so worried he had to look me up in the system. It's interesting that he's so defensive and calling reviews bogus for VALID experiences people had in this gym. With that I will never step foot in this gym and wish I never had in the first place!

Plenty of squat racks and benches. Lots of cardio equipment upstairs. A decent number of cable machines and Nautilus equipment. And nothing is off limits. After looking at several gyms to do powerlifting I ended up here. Plenty of racks and bars. Bumper plates with a fairly liberal drop rule (hips or below). You CAN USE CHALK, just remember it's not Christmas and you're good! The area around the racks to do deadlift or cleans is a tad small, but so far I haven't seen anyone fighting for space. The only thing I haven't seen is a light Olympic bar, but haven't asked or looked too hard. If you want to powerlift this is a good option.

The Fitness Center for women is local, small gym that's currently moving to a new location…read more Generally, the staff is very pleasant and polite, and they help you with everything, take free measurements for you and all. The trainers are VERY nice and polite. The owner, however, is anything but. I signed up twice --- the first time before I had gone to college, and had enough free time to commit to a schedule. It worked out fine until I had to cancel due to financial problems (I enrolled in college and could no longer afford to be in college and to afford the $41.48 membership fee, so I had to cancel.) I did this legitimately, by paying the $99 cancellation fee after about 5-6 months. After that, since I was in college, I did not attend the gym for about 2-3 years, until this summer when I had about 3 months to sign up again, this May (my new contract actually began 5/29/13). So, I thought fine, I can afford this until I get a stable income after graduating college (I am graduating this year.) However, as the months passed on, I noticed another charge on my bank account for $46.59 in ADDITION to the $41.48 which was already taken out. I was fully aware of the yearly $25.00 fee, which had already came out, but this was something else. This extra charge was explained to me (much later, I might add) and the staff of the bank as an "insufficient funds" charge. The $20 "insufficient funds charge" + $41.48 - $46. I called the gym the very day I noticed the charge, and immediately asked to speak to the owner, however she was on vacation at the moment and they said I needed to wait for a week until she got back. This was not acceptable due to the fact I had missing funds in my account at the moment, and I could not wait for the owner to sort it out with me. I am a college student and need EVERY cent in my account, and I do not account for such errors like "double billing" and other things that would cause my account to go into the negative. I had to call my bank and file a chargeback for the extra amount of the $46. Bank of America explained this charge as a merchant error, and the bank refunded me the amount. The gym owner very rudely stated when she called today, that she disputed the charge against her company, because it was "not her error" and said that the bank is going to retract the refunded amount from my bank. The owner, Kristie, was VERY rude and didn't seem to be very understanding of the problem. She insisted that she "did nothing wrong", and when I mentioned i'd like to cancel out of pure frustration and because I was moving out of town soon (and would be signing up with a much cheaper gym) in addition to all the trouble this has caused me with the bank (with overdraft fees and calling both the bank AND the gym to

I joined the Fitness Center For Women last June after having an annual physical that left me…read morefeeling very upset about my physical condition and weight. The nurse practitioner recommended it to me, and I have no regrets at all about joining -- it has been a wonderful experience. When you start, they evaluate your fitness level, and design a workout for you, also spending an hour of time with you making sure you know how to set up the machines and how to do each exercise without hurting yourself. I worked out on my own mostly over the summer and also tried the hula hoop class with Tanya. Not only is it a very fun class -- it is a good workout that raises your heart rate and makes you sweat. This Fall, I joined the Diva Boot Camp. I am far from a Diva, but I have found a great group of women who support each other with making it through some tough workouts and do so consistently. Kristie, the gym owner, leads the camp, and she keeps the workouts varied and interesting. She is encouraging and tough all at the same time. I was new to the area, and this has really made me feel like I have a community of people who are becoming friends and who are striving together to meet their goals. Next June, when I go back for my annual physical, I suspect it will be a very different experience. For anyone who has not tried an "all women's gym" and is curious -- I highly recommend it. It just takes the edge off and let's you focus on your workouts and not worry about whether you look presentable. There is not a lot of vanity -- it's a place where women can work out and feel at ease whatever your size or fitness level. Go for it -- you have nothing to lose (except a few pounds) ; )

There is a large studio for group fitness classes and a smaller studio for their "Edge Strong" classes- which are taught by the personal trainers. They also have a spin studio. Amenities include showers, sauna, tanning, chair massage and hydromassage. The free weight section is a decent size- they have at least 6 squat racks and a bunch of benches. They have a good selection of strength training equipment. There is a private cage personal training area for trainers & PT clients, multiple cardio areas (10 brand new stair masters), a turf training area, cable machines, plate loaded machines, a private area upstairs (which is basically a mini version of the rest of the gym, which has its own free weights with benches, cardio, strength / functional training area, turf etc),) They also have the Edge Cinema- which feels like a real movie theatre in there! They play great movies and you can check l out the monthly schedule online- it is also posted outside of the cinema. They have cardio equipment in there- treadmills, ellipticals, arc trainers and stationary bikes. You can order shakes at their shake bar with made-to-order protein shakes that are delicious. They also sell supplements and they also have a bunch of refrigerators filled with all sorts of beverages (energy drinks, protein shakes, water, etc) and protein bars. They have an area for kids. You can pay a drop in rate (I believe $10/visit) or you can pay a monthly membership for "unlimited" access. My kids have been going there since it reopened after COVID in 2021. The Edge Kids hours are pretty limited (Mornings: Sunday-Friday 8:30am-11:30am & Saturday 8:30am-12pm; Evenings: Monday-Thursday 4:30pm-7:30pm) but it's nice to have the option to be able to bring them and get my own workout in.
