They run a great outfit here, very serious, yet still open, accepting, and friendly.

Highly recommend this place to any other fatso looking to change their life. Thanks guys, keep up the good work!

Everyone here is friendly and genuine. When I first started I was seriously intimidated and worried that I wouldn't be able to keep up. What I like about CrossFit is that the workouts are scaled to your fitness level and you are challenged to improve. There are even periodic assessments so you know exactly where you are, what you've improved on and what you may want to work on. Nutrition is also reinforced and there is also one on one coaching.

I like the spin classes the best as they are different from the other gyms in the area. Bikes are well maintained, music is great, workout varies each time - so no boredom. Arms used in workout too! If you try the spin/barre class you also get to have a full body workout. Instructors are friendly and do not intimidate Brooke offers an early morning workout that is a great start for the day. Ashley, Beth & Callista are energetic and positive motivators. The boxing class is challenging FUN Haven't tried the yoga yet but plan to.

First, it has all the equipment you'll need to achieve whatever goal you may have. Dumbbells go up to 150-160 I believe, plenty of different treadmills, both sitting and standing. A nice dance studio that holds classes (Zumba and such). A smaller studio as well for stretching. The staff here is incredibly friendly. Mike, the owner, is a highly energetic person, always saying hi to the members, asking how they're doing. Little stuff that goes far with us. He also does a lot of charity type things. Just a genuinely good guy, that's extremely likable. Alan, the head trainer, also a good guy. Knows his material, isn't a "in your face trainer", but will definitely help you achieve your goals. Great guy. The members are also very friendly. No meat heads, no grunting, etc. For the most part, just average, everyday people. Don't get me wrong, there's definitely some nice eye candy there, but if that's all you care about, then go to retro and wait 20 minutes to use a machine. I rarely ever have to wait for anything here (and I workout between 4pm-7pm usually. Prime hours). In conclusion, if you want a nice, friendly, reasonably priced, 24 hour gym, then check this place out. It's a true diamond in the rough gym here in Delaware.

It's small but has all the necessities... free weights, cardio equipment, cycle room, pool, basketball court, studio room, a kids sitter area, and a personal training area.

As a result, I am now being billed for two memberships, and the only solution offered has been for me to spend even more money. What is most concerning is that the manager's notes regarding my situation were inaccurate and did not reflect what actually occurred. During my conversations with staff, it was acknowledged that there have been ongoing concerns and complaints regarding this manager's practices, and it appears my experience is not an isolated incident. While the organization recognized that mistakes were made, they have been unwilling to take meaningful steps to correct them. I understand that errors happen, but accountability and customer service should follow. Unfortunately, I have been left paying for a problem that was created by misinformation and poor management. I hope the company takes a closer look at these issues and works to improve how customers are treated when legitimate concerns are raised.
