I contacted Dropout fight club through email and explained to them I was flying into Milwaukee for…read morefamily. I asked about coming in for the week and paying a daily rate. Otto emailed me back and told me to come in and the first workout was on him. I showed up with my gloves and wraps all the way from San Diego. Let me tell you, this place is badass! It's located inside an old brick building. It has the feel of an old school boxing gym with a modern touch. I was greeted by Cauleen (I hope that's how you spell her name) at the front desk and she put the group through a tough boxing workout. She even held the pads for each person, that was cool as f&@k! I was able to hit the fight club 3 out of the 5 days I was in town. Each workout was different and you throw lots of different combinations! If you live in Milwaukee or the surrounding area I suggest you give this fight club a try. P.S. I noticed next door they also have a CrossFit gym. I didn't use it but I looked inside and it also looked really nice. If that's your thing you should try that. I appreciate the warm welcome and when I visit, I'll be back. Thanks

What an incredible thing Otto and his team have built. With several class offerings, an inclusive…read moreand energetic atmosphere, and facilities that make you feel like you're training to fight Ali himself, Dropout Fight Club is something you need to experience. All it took was one class and I'm a believer. Typically I'm not one to attend fitness classes because most of them are things you can do in just about any gym. That's not the case at Dropout. They not only run you through a high intensity workout, but teach you boxing fundamentals along the way. Walker was the instructor for my small class on a Friday evening and he did a killer job. He encouraged us to work hard all class, but was also supportive if someone felt they needed a break. And most likely you will need a break at some point! It was four rounds of high intensity bag work and functional fitness movements. Without a doubt, Dropout Fight Club gave me one of the best workouts of my life. Classes are a little on the pricey side, but they offer a truly phenomenal experience that you just can't get anywhere else. It is absolutely worth every penny. The only negative about Dropout Fight Club is that you can't see it from the road. The address listed takes you to what looks like an abandoned warehouse (actually it was a battery factory), but the gym is way in the back of the building. I've included a couple of pictures to help first timers find there way in. If you park on Keefe, you can walk around the fence to a gate that lets you into the parking lot. From there you walk all the way to the back and you'll see the sign. Once inside the building there are several businesses already running or being built. The grunge of the building makes it feel like you're walking into an underground fight club. All in all, I give Dropout my highest recommendation. I hope to see this business thrive over the next few years.

I had always believed I had little-to-no physical prowess. Words like, "weakling," "delicate," and…read more"lazy" all come to mind. In the past, group exercise classes like yoga and bodypump held my interest briefly, but that interest would wane within a month. I joined Top Line at the urging of a friend, and within two weeks my attitudes toward myself and my abilities changed dramatically. This isn't a fancy gym. There is no upscale locker room, no juice bar, no supplements station, no tanning beds. It's a former warehouse with hardcore equipment, and it's given me the greatest workout of my life. More than that, it's given me greater physical strength than I've ever possessed, and results I still can't believe. I started out with two sessions a week, quickly upped that to three, and then added a strength program soon after. It turns out that there is nothing more addictive than results. Within a month of joining, I started seeing muscle definition. Soon after, my clothing sizes began to drop (I went from a snug ladies' 12 to a loose 6 within a few months). I was sleeping better, had more energy, and people around me started to notice how different I looked. Top Line changed me physically, but it also changed my attitudes and habits. Through meal planning and guidance, my diet has become dramatically healthier. I have become "that girl" who encourages her friends to exercise, who helps others with food choices, and who can recommend a great protein shake... things that still surprise me. While the equipment and programming is top-of-the-line, the real Top Line experience comes from the people. This is a gym where the coaches and your fellow gym-goers work as a team. Everyone encourages and assists. I never feel afraid that I'm doing something incorrectly, or that I'm going to hurt myself, because there is always someone there to assist and guide. It's something I'd never experienced in a gym before, and it's definitely on the list of top ten things that keep me coming back. Top Line isn't just physique-changing. It's life-changing. Get in here!

After a number of failed attempts, I started CrossFit at Groundworks in summer of 2015. Prior to…read morejoining I was a bit of a sceptic. Previous CrossFit experiences had left me with the impression that CrossFit is hard to break into and that the culture could be overbearing. None of that is true for Groundworks! I genuinely enjoyed going to Groundworks from Day #1 for a number of reasons: - Coaches take their time to thoroughly explain technique, workouts, scaling. They take your individual fitness level as well as potential injuries into account to provide dedicated instructions. Lots of attention given to athletes who are new to CrossFit. Nothing was intimidating. - Athletes span across all genders, backgrounds, ages and fitness levels. Everyone fits in, nobody is judged. - Athletes are very welcoming and there's simply a pleasant atmosphere, making you feel comfortable from the get-go. For those who desire there are also opportunities to participate in a number of fun social WoDs... - Facilities are great and coaches put a focus on updated equipment. Location is also a plus as the box is located in a low-traffic area so you can do your WoD outside if weather permits. Also a plus for longer runs. In summary: highly recommend CrossFit Groundworks - Terri & the team are probably one of the best CrossFit experiences you'll ever have.

It's a little community of folks that run the spectrum in terms of age and background

I set up a consultation with someone in the facility back in November, but as I arrived at the center, I realised it was all empty? I then continued to try to reach them by phone to get in touch with a trainer, but to no avail. A few weeks ago, I received a very well-written and motivating email from the owner about fitness and maintaining healthy habits, this prompted me to give it one last shot. I once again called the place, left them a voicemail ANDD responded to the very inspiring email, but all in vain. I really wanted to give my business to this place, but I guess they didn't want it.

I highly recommend working with Claire if you can. I am certain you will love her positivity, energy/spirit, and skill. She has also taught me some very important and useful takehomes, such as specific yoga poses that would (and do) help. MyOm also has an abundance of items for sale, a yoga studio, and more.

Make no mistake, this gym has no frills or thrills in terms of the actual equipment on the floor…read more(free weights, squat racks, etc.) however they do have plenty of space so the lack of equipment doesn't play a huge impact in your workout. This is the perfect gym for the average individual who simply wants a space to do some simple exercises. The nice side of this gym is that they do offer their "black card" for $20/month which gives you access to massages chairs & beds along with their tanning beds. This gym is never so overcrowded that you can't find a machine and weights to lift and is cheap enough compared to other big name gyms. The only reason for the 4 star rating instead of 5 is simply the small space and amount of equipment for their free weight area. With a little creativity you can get a full lift in, but it can be tough. Overall they market themselves as a simplistic gym and they delivered with plenty of machines and clean facilities!

Good sized room could easily have accommodated ~30 people; we had about 10. Room was appropriately hot and appropriately humid. Always interesting to see how different places have different variations on 26/2 -- this was a slightly different variation on the theme from what I'm accustomed to -- some postures done 2x when the "standard" 60 minute does them only once, so there was a little less space in and between postures, but it was a well taught class. They also offer a variety of other classes including power vinyasa, yin, and others (check the website!) Studio had mat and towels for rent for visitors like me. Showers available.
