I like how the classes are divided up so on one day the focus is on glutes, next day shoulder, etc. The people that come to this small gym are good too. I don't like big crowded gyms. This place is small but has everything I need. A lot of great equipments for us to use, things I that never used before, sort of boot camp like. Monthly rates are reasonable too. If you are looking for a lifetime commitment to change and get fit, definitely try here. After 2 visits, I realized this is the right place. You can sign up to work out 1, 2, 3, or more times a week. There is also a free Sat AM class. I only wish I had more time to go. Great people and place.

Renting temporarily. This place has no privacy what so ever. Very very noisy and nosy community…read more There is an excessive amount of grinding mowing blowing from 6:45 am, all day 5 days a week. The gardening staff is rude. I am near a pool entrance and hub for the staff. They SLAM the gate at least 20 + times a day, speak loudly outside and generally act like THEY own the place. The condos are quite old, and the shared areas are not well maintained, other than the landscaping. Rude clicky kind of neighbors, no peaceful place to enjoy anything that is good. The only thing this place has going for it is the location. I cannot speak to the tennis and pickleball courts, as I do not play. Looking forward to leaving.

For example, my left shoulder was not nearly as strong as my right due to an old injury. Zach accounted for that difference in selecting exercises, and within a year the left shoulder had improved to the point it was about equal to the right. He also pays attention to my balance, endurance and flexibility in addition to strength.

Me and my mom went to Pathfinder Ranch for a few days in the winter for a field trip and it was so…read moremuch fun! First of all, our naturalists name was Kestrel. She was amazing and made sure that we were all having a good time. We did many activities such as archery and canoeing. All the naturalists put down very strict rules to ensure everybody's safety. Here is a list of all the activities our group did (keep in mind that the activities that your group will partake in will be different depending on what your school bought): making a fire activity, compass activity, night hike, shelter building activity, rock climbing, team challenge, farm, herpetology, mad science fair, gold hill hike, canoeing, horse back riding, and archery. This is the schedule that I went through. Lights on was at 7:00 am, but some woke up earlier to shower. Then breakfast began at around 7:30 and went until 8:00, then we went to do one activity with our activity group after a 15 minute break period. After that activity we would go to lunch from around 11:45-12:30 (I don't remember the exact times those are just an estimate). Then we would go do two more activities with a 15 minute break between the two. We would have dinner around 5:15-6:00. After dinner we would have 1 hour of free time to talk with our friends or go play in the rec room (you should bring a card/board game to play with your friends, I brought twister!). After the hour (so around 7) you would do a night activity. One example of this is the night hike. After the night activity, which is normally an hour long, we went to bed. Lights went out at 9! The schedule was so compact that me and my friends were never bored. Something was always happening, and you were always having fun! The cabin situation was as you would expect for 30 or so kids in one room. It was really chaotic. I would recommend bringing some ear plugs, because the talking was no joke. In the middle of the night it was funny, but once you had to wake up at 7 to go on a 3 hour long hike it wasn't anymore. In each cabin, there were two wings where students would sleep, with one chaperon sleeping area in the middle. Each wing had about 15 bunk beds. In each cabin there were also two bathrooms, which all contained three stalls, three sinks, and three showers. The bathrooms were very clean which I and everybody else who had to use them appreciated. Now for the food. For the taste, it was a hit or miss. Here is a list of some things that we were given (I might have forgotten some): fried chicken, pizza, burgers, tacos, barbecue chicken, pasta, brownies, cookies, and s'mores. The only two meals that I didn't like were the fried chicken and pasta. I did appreciate the salad bar that they had available for any kids who didn't like the food served though. They had a system of having a kid chosen everyday from the table to serve as the "waiter" (they were called a hopper), which I liked as well. If the pitcher needed refilling or there wasn't anymore food on the table the hopper would go and take care of it. Overall, the whole experience was super fun! Though I barely got any sleep, it was a small price to pay for all the fun I had with my friends. 5 stars, will definitely never forget!!
