Upstairs, they have a lot of cardio machines, racks, weight machines, free weights, a cycle studio, and room to stretch. They offer many group fitness classes which I hope to try soon. I've heard great things about their childcare and how nice it is for families. The facility is kept clean and everyone is friendly. It's not quite as fancy as some gyms, but it gets the job done and isn't too expensive. Definitely the gym to join in Ankeny.

During COVID19 review: Came out on a week day 9:00am-11:00am with a friend with her two kids and it was pretty busy. 5 other families with at least 3-5 kids in each family were out here. They were not affiliated with each other. Social distancing is challenging with kids. Families tried to keep their kids together but many wanted to play with each other. No one was wearing masks but adults were keeping distance. BEAUTIFUL park with great scenery (if you don't mind the construction by the IPTV station) Soft trail for walking near the playgrounds and lake and a hard trail for walking/biking into the woods. Fishing is allowed at the lake! Picnic shelters and amphitheater near by. There is also a community center up the hill. Playgrounds are very fun and unique with 1 structured as a tree house. It's a fully equipped park! We enjoy coming here since it's close to our home. Highly recommend exploring this beautiful Johnston park. Might be the best one in Johnston yet!

Music is SUPER LOUD. We were in a small room that had 2 metal bins, a printer, 2 keyboards, glass beer bottles you throw against some cinder blocks, a boxing maniquin, & a "stab" area where it was a table with foam and you stab with a screwdriver. There were hammers, crow bars & sledge hammers to help break things. There was 2 of us, not enough room in the small room. Def needed more items to smash as it was destroyed within 10-15 mins so the rest of the time it was just going back over the stuff we already broke up. But definitely an interesting experience. We want to go back for the paint room.
