    This gym apparently is the old Agonizo gym, now called Powerhouse gym. I remember as a young boy,…read morethe father of my best friend use to come to this gym, so i guess it's been around for a really long time. However, when searching for the address for this Yelp review, i came across a couple of Google reviews for the former Agonizo gym. from what i understand, the gym changed ownership and changed names to Powerhouse. upon arriving to tifton for a 3 month work assignment, i visited 3 gyms in the area, all within a block or 2 of each other...which is kind of weird considering the locale is downtown Tifton, a virtual ghost town. they offered me an 80 dollar flat fee for 3 months which seemed reasonable, until i broke it down and figured i only pay 30 bucks a month at my scottsdale LA Fitness, which is far and beyond a much, much, much better gym. anyway, this is a weights gym. it's rather ratty. there are no fancy pieces of equipment. many of the seats on the moveable benches come completely off, a severe safety hazard if you're lying on them with weights above your head and the bench face decided to slide off. there are only 2 treadmills. only 1 of the 4 ellipticals work. and their smith machines are ancient...you can't adjust the cable heights at all. a couple of other things to consider...the mens bathroom is quite dingy. the toilet was missing for many days with the sewage pipe exposed. the sink only offers hot water. there is frequent absence of paper towels and hand soap for days at a time. and the showers are disgusting. one of the google reviews said there was a sauna....not currently. as with any gym, no one puts their weights away and there are more people at this gym i noticed, that are more interested in socializing. there is a limited selection of dumbells. and one more negative....the overhead music selection is not only ear busting loud, but terrible as well. however, there does remain a smoothie bar but i never partook in such. there are enough weights to keep you busy, but if you are interested in doing any kind of cross fit or HIIT style workout, you have to be very creative as the selection of gear is limited. there is an aerobics room, which when empty is loaded with theraballs and even ropes for some cross training. this is a small town and everyone knows each other. lots of socializing, and i would be hopeful that if i stayed longer, i would;ve be included in some interaction. being an outsider, no one ever really talked to me, except John, the day manager....very cool guy by the way. extremely friendly and often was seen giving tips and helping other members with tips on working out. i'm not a social butterfly, but i'm no leper either. in any case, biggest gripe and where 80 bucks for 3 months was way too much....it's a 24/hr gym, but you must have a key to access on friday, sat, sun, and anytime before 8am or after 8pm. what a huge ripoff, one i experienced only i after i paid. what kind of gym is only open 4 days a week, and otherwise only to people whom have a key? i'll take my 30/month super snobby LA Fitness where i know people won't talk to me, but at least the doors are always open, there is a plethora of equipment, and the bathrooms are clean.
