The gym itself might come across as a little intimidating to those of us who aren't frequent heavy lifters, but once Jenn showed us around, it was much more approachable. She build our workout around everyone's different levels so that everyone felt included and able to get the workout done. We tried machines I would never have tried on my own like the PitShark and the weighted sled. Other members of the club were focused on their workouts, but also super friendly! They have a vending machine of protein shakes and snacks, lots of selfie stations to make videos of your form and personal accomplishments and great music. I really liked that they have a garage door out back that they open when the weather is nice to keep it nice and bright inside as well as getting fresh air in there. I really wish they were closer to me in Milwaukee, but I also appreciate that Jenn does a virtual training plan for me based on my tools at home and skill set. If you need a spot to find your best self and be encouraged and supported to feel like a badass, this is the spot to do it!

The review stating they don't care about their clients is literally lies, they are the most invested in their clients out of any business I've ever seen. A lot of us small business owners have not known how to approach the covid situation. They have spent more time consulting and planning a personalized diet and exercise program than anyone else in any business I've ever been to. Hours past what is normally expected and the care for their clients is very evident.

The weights on the bottom near the boxing ring are mainly free weights,pulley systems, and some machines. All the equipment are pretty close to each other but I didn't mind it. When you first walk-in there are more open racks and a small field to do tire flips or walking lunges etc. the top half is mainly machines and cardio equipment. I was able to use the treadmill and watch some boxing matches which was pretty cool! The men's bathroom/locker room was pretty standard and clean. I went on a Wednesday evening and it wasn't too crowded. I was able to use any machine that I wanted to without waiting. Overall a really cool experience and well taken care of gym.

Some of my favorite things they have that you dont see at every gym: weighted sled, bars made specifically for different lifts, micro plates, heavy clamps, the list goes on... Theyre never crowded (at least compared to Gold's Gym in Fitchburg). Ive waited for a bench to open up once and ive shared a deadlift platform a few times but thats it. The atmosphere is great too. They have dank lifting memes all over the place, a life-sized yoda replica, and a john cena cut out. They play loud metal and rap music all day too. The gym is 24 hours. If you come at odd hours, you might get the gym to yourself and have to let yourself in with a key fob. They dont have group fitness or a swimming pool though, so look elsewhere if you need those things. Also, if you get intimated easily by people who are stronger than you, maybe look somewhere else. Despite how strong and experienced most of the clients are, everybody ive met so far has been very friendly and helpful. I find the other lifters to be inspiring instead of intimidating, so i suggest you give Madtown Fitness a try if youre trying to take your strength to the next level.

Visited Madison this weekend to see an old college friend and checked out Madtown Fitness after…read morelooking at a few places in Madison. I don't think I can say enough positive things about this place. I went to their new location on the east side so I am specifically mentioning that gym. Atmosphere- unreal. Perfect warehouse type gym that is extremely motivating for those that take fitness seriously. Staff- Dan, one of the owners, was very helpful and got us set up for the day immediately. He showed us how to use a few of the pieces of equipment as well since there are some machines that I have never seen before. This is a testament to the care that these people take in selecting equipment. Equipment- I have been to dozens of gyms since I travel for work and Madtown had the best selection of strength equipment I have ever seen. If you powerlift, bodybuild, or do any combination of the two this place is perfect. If you want to watch TV and walk on the treadmill, sit in a steam room, or have a pool the this place isn't for you. If I didn't live over an hour away I would have signed a life long contract here. Rates are reasonable and this is the first serious gym I have been to that gives access 24/7 while having 2 locations. Seriously check this place out if you want to make changes to your body.

The gym doors are typically locked and you need a fob to access it. The weekly fee was $20 plus $15 deposit for the fob. They have bikes and treadmills. Weight machines and free weights. Two squat racks with wooden platforms. Kettle bells bosu balls. Really something for everyone. They ask that you wipe down your equipment if you sweat on it and wear gym shoes and not outside shoes. The gym is open 24/7. They have a bathroom and shower if you need it. My wife ended up coming with me and they have a lockbox to throw some money into when that happens.
