    Come for the workout, stay for the community…read more Small class sizes. Plenty of class times to work with my week/end schedules. I've never had an issue reserving a class spot before it filling. Attentive, knowledgeable, and patient trainers. Healthy mix of gender, age, color, and fitness levels in the member community. Excellent fitness programming; very variable movements. I could attend every class in a week and never repeat movements. There always seems to be a program focus in place e.g. 4-week bench press focus, 6-week running focus, etc. Each program starts and ends with a test to assess progress over time. The programming motivates regular class attendance. The gym also nurtures member community with regular/monthly events like bowling, trivia, rock climbing, pot lucks, etc. It's fun to connect with other gym members outside of the gym given we see each other so regularly in the gym. I've just completed month 8 with the gym, and I'm in the best shape of my life. Hitting the ground running in 2022. Big thanks to the FW Strong staff and member community.

After attending group classes fairly regularly, I've gotten much stronger overall. The coaches play a huge part in not only motivating you but making sure you're doing the lifts correctly and safely. I highly recommend FWStrong to anyone who wants to get strong, have fun and be a part of a great community.

    I've stopped here over my lunch break when I'm in the area, it is a really beautiful campus. It's…read morenot huge, but they do have a pool, weight room and some studios. In addition are two beautiful basketball courts outside, along with a big soccer field and playground. The Y is such a great place and this in particular is a great location.

    Gorgeous new facility. All new equipment, new improved pool, individual dressing rooms, spacious,…read moreabsurdly clean. And the staff have always been accommodating. So why the low review? These guys have HORRIBLE hours. Straight up, the place is closed on Sunday. All Sundays. You know that day of the week that you actually have time to go to the gym? These guys don't care. "Not in the budget." That's the first logistical issue, but there's more. The gorgeous new pool that just got a huge expensive renovation is open from Memorial Day to Labor Day. And that's it. Mind you there's still swim classes and afterschool events that happen at this pool which means they cram a year's worth of use into 3.5 months in one of the few local outdoor public pools you can use without an expensive season pass. With the weather being warm from April until October now, this pool should be open at least 6 months out of the year. The actual facility hours are just too narrow considering the clientele. You can tell it's a busy Y when you roll up to the parking lot on a Saturday morning, the lot's full, and somehow these guys want to close at 3! If a gym is open on the weekend, the soonest they should close is 5. I've had great experiences here, but the weekend hours are terrible. Every once in a while the kids go unchecked here, but that's normal at any YMCA. Staff should keep an eye on kids using the weight machines in the actual gym area. Please address the lack of hours for this facility.

    Forged Fitness is tucked just outside the Foundry District and easy enough to find... once you…read moredodge all the construction chaos. I biked over and yeah, not the cutest ride. Loud, messy, very "watch your step." The space itself is huge, which I loved, and the music hits just right. I took a women's group strength class with Jess, who was super kind, checked in on my knee injury, and offered mods when needed. Overall, solid workout. Not easy, not killer, just right down the middle. I'll be honest though... I was fully distracted by a personal trainer on the side absolutely wrecking her clients. Like hi, I want THAT workout. Clean bathrooms, booked easily on ClassPass, and I spotted Hyrox signs which got me excited. There's also a physical therapy biz inside, and both seemed busy, so clearly something's working. The vibe felt a little more quiet and low key than my usual energy, but I can see the community is there. All in, a solid 4 stars. Not rushing back, but I'd try another class... and maybe sneak into one of those savage one on one sessions next time.

The amount of care and love put into the facility is awesome, staff is super friendly and motivating and always willing to work with you around healing/ injuries. Great community, I'm so happy I've found this gym which has become home! They're also doing so many fun events and finding ways to support the local community. All the equipment you could need for Olympic lifting, powerlifting, CrossFit, and regular working out!

    I started going to this Perfect Workout Location pretty soon after it opened, and I have really…read moreenjoyed it from the standpoint of convenience and effectiveness. I used to go to a regular gym and workout on the Nautilus machines, but what I really lacked was the time that seemed to be required, and my interest fell off after years of being a bit of a "gym rat". Well, two knee replacements and 5 years later, I was experiencing a serious bout of out-of-shape-ness and was also suffering from a lack of energy and my metabolism had really fallen off from losing muscle over the years. At age 58, I was not ready to let myself go, but was not wanting to go back to the gym and do things on my own. I responded to a mailer about the Perfect Workout and signed up immediately, and wanted to commit myself to 6 months and see what happens. I KNEW I could do anything for 20 minutes, and once you get going, and don't spend too much time talking to the friendly trainers, then you can do it in 20 minutes, but your time is actually 30 minutes, so you are not really rushed at any time. The trainers there have all been great, and I've had to get to know at least 5 of them in the past year and a half as they come and go, but each time I have felt that they are ALL good and all pretty professional and seem to know the Perfect Workout technique more than adequately. And they are also there for you with lots of encouragement and also nutritional coaching if you would like. I gave this rating 4 out of 5 stars mainly because the studio itself is not what one might think of as a state-of-the-art facility right now. It is in an office park, but the machines are all clean and well maintained, as is the space. The air is always clean and fresh (thank goodness!) and again, I stress that the trainers there really make the most of the set up and the routine, and they are very organized about scheduling and following up with you. And also very reasonable and flexible when you need to adjust your appointment time. I've been going there for 20 months now and I have been very happy with the results. I have met my goals, and now am just going to maintain my muscle and fight middle age, all in 20 minutes twice a week. It's in a part of town with lots around, so I always get errands done while I'm over that way, because you don't have to dress in "gym clothes" to do this workout. Just sensible, comfortable clothes. What a godsend!! My energy is great now, and I went down two sized and lost about 20 pounds in these 20 months. (I also got REALLY careful about my eating, I have to be honest!!)

    After one year, I still enjoy the benefits of the 2/week workout…read more MAS
