I have worked out with Jim for about 2 years now and I know from my own experience, as i started at about a 1 on the fitness scale and can now keep up with people half my age (I turn 50 this month). I highly recommend making an appointment to stop by and see for yourself.

I have been a member at the Little Rock Athletic club for about the last two years. I was a member…read morefor about a year prior to renewing again. I The club is nice but my experience of having true access to tennis league has not been good. I have tried to get into leagues and always told on a regular basis that they are full but somehow , I have met people who I play tennis with at other people who manage to get into the leagues. I play 3.5 tennis I should not have a problem getting into leagues at my own club. I am told to get on the sub list. I pay for full access to all clubs, when it comes to playing tennis the Racquet club and athletic clubs seem to be full. When it comes to renting courts, and doing live ball, I have no problem with those services because I am paying extra for them. I know that the league has fees too. Unfortunately , I live in Arkansas , I learned that the tennis culture is not the best, very selective from my experience when it comes to tennis and of the limited access of indoor courts in the state does not help . I would strongly recommend that you ask about all access before joining . This people will not change trust me .

Not ideal but it worked. In addition to replacing the plates and bumper plates, I'm guessing Magnum probably sells a pair of hooks that are designed to hold the barbell on the outside of the rack. It's probably possible to press inside the rack if you're under about 5' 10" tall, but any taller than that and it becomes impossible, without hitting the top of the cage. If you have any hooks like this, I did not see any lying around. Thx!

My review is a little late in posting, as I quit this gym during Covid. I was looking to sign back…read moreup now because my Husband loves the pool and I like the convenience of the sauna after a workout. However, reading all these previous comments reminded me what I disliked about it before I ended my membership, which was an unbelievable task in itself. It had to be in writing, they still charged me monthly and never reimbursed me, plus a $99 cancellation fee. And, during Covid's initial scares, I would think the business would have had some leniencey and sympathy of their paying customers. I agree, after the friendly signing up for my Husband & I, all of the employees were rude, not friendly and not helpful. I had a Friend who signed up and paid for personal training and he said the trainer just stayed on her phone the entire hour he way paying for and that she was also rude. I so wish it was better because of the location, but I think my money (and sanity and motivation) will work better a little further down the road. Too bad because it has so much potential.

Been using this gym for 7 years or so and am about to leave for another gym…read more Max two stars here. You get a decent weight area with a moderate amount of equipment (three cable areas, four benches and three squat racks). More expensive for less than others in the area. Reasons to avoid: 1) crime (car broken in to once and always see glass on the ground) - they have a "security" guard who rides around the complex sometimes. Doesn't seem to deter much but at least appreciate that. 2)Lifters consistently blast pretty obscene music with no headphones - staff places a barely visible sign that you need your own headphones and make zero effort to say anything. Apparently we all need to be subject to others' terrible music. 3) if your card is declined for any reason you pay a small meaningless fee even if it's on the payment acceptance side It's really clean overall inside - the cleaning staff are really diligent but right outside the door there's often what appears to be either animal or human feces that's never been cleaned up and new areas seem to sprout up every month. I'd watch your step outside the front door. I know several folks who have moved from here to 10 fitness due to rising costs, consistently missing weight bars and no enforcement of the rules - so if you're looking for a gym you may check there first.

I've been a consistent member here, but I've had ongoing issues with one trainer -- Raf -- who…read moreconsistently acts entitled to multiple machines and shows zero regard for other members. This morning was the final straw. Raf had a client on the leg extension machine for about 15 minutes, then decided to take over the leg curl machine at the same time, setting up his tripod and claiming both pieces of equipment. When I asked politely if he was using it, he told me, "Yeah, you can't use it. You need to respect that I'm training here." That's not training -- that's arrogance and a lack of professionalism. No member should be told to "respect" a trainer's misuse of equipment. This kind of behavior makes the gym feel unwelcoming, especially when trainers are supposed to set the example. I spoke to the assistant manager, who admitted this was not standard practice and said he'd handle it -- but it's not the first time this has happened with this same trainer. If management doesn't step up and enforce basic gym etiquette, this place is going to lose good members.
