Retrofit is the most underrated, awesome HIIT-style gym in Metro-Detroit. I started going to…read moreRetrofit back in 2017 after moving back to Royal Oak from Los Angeles. Since then, the owner Brad has continued to evolve his gym both in supplies, training style, and employees. They offer affordable 1:1 training as well as group fitness classes that are effective and efficient. As a trainer myself, I love their method of using drop-sets, heavy weights, and functional movement/cardio.

A couple of months ago, I realized that I was tired of overcrowded gyms & getting to exercise…read moreclasses 30 minutes early to fight for a spot. I also realized that it was one more excuse that I didn't need to avoid exercising. A long time ago, I had a really good experience with a Personal Trainer, and decided that was what I needed to do. I came across Retrofit Studio reviews here on Yelp, sort of accidentally. I liked what I read from the reviews & their website. I liked the idea of a private studio too. I called Brad & set up a consultation. There is no doubt that Brad loves what he does & wants every client to be successful. He spent a lot of time listening & talking to me about realistic goals, nutrition, and what to expect. He decided to set me up with Mark, one of his trainers. So far, I have had 8 training sessions with Mark. When Brad said he was a good fit for me, he was right! My sessions are 30 minutes, 2 times a week. By the time I leave, I am a sweaty mess! Mark challenges me, makes sure I have good form, and always encouraging. If I don't do it right, I have to do it again. Every session varies to work different muscle groups, especially the areas that are difficult to target. As hard as he makes me work, I'm never too sore to exercise in between our sessions. That is important to me because I need to do my part outside of our sessions. Mark checks with me regarding my diet and what I'm doing to reach my weight loss goals between our sessions. I always have fun training with Mark even when it's really difficult. The studio itself is great. It's very clean, doesn't smell funky like a lot of gyms (ha!), and a great variety of training techniques & equipment. There are a few cardio machines for client use before or after a session. Every trainer is always encouraging clients, whether it's their client or not. What about results? I started to feel stronger right away and continue to feel that way. I'm steadily losing weight & seeing the jiggle disappear! My muffin top is shrinking! I asked my husband if he noticed any changes. The poor guy looked at me with slight fear of answering the wrong way. ha! I wanted an honest answer. I don't expect fast results, but I am curious if the changes I see are noticeable to others. He said that he has seen a big change. He said I have been a lot happier since I started training with Mark. I wasn't expecting that answer & it made me realize I haven't felt that way about getting in shape (or trying to) in a long time. It sort of made me all verklempt! This is one of the best decisions I've made in a long time!

There are many other gyms in the area which have a far more friendly staff, business models…read moredesigned to support customers in their busy and unpredictable lives, more dynamic and less repetitive workouts in spaces larger than a bedroom closet - yes you feel like one of too many Tetris blocks crammed into the space when a class is full! Fuse45 is criminal in their business scheme - taking advantage of clients in the interest of earning an extra dollar. As an unlimited member you are charged $10 for a missed class on top of the $140 you have already paid for a month's worth of sessions. There was actually a morning where I was made to feel "lucky" for not having been charged the $10 for electing not to drive during a snow storm which caused local schools and businesses to close. Furthermore, you WILL be charged TEN days before the month begins with no means of skipping, pausing, or being respected as a person with conflicts on occasion - regardless of whether or not you sign a contract, so I strongly discourage you to provide credit card information as they seemingly do what they choose with it. I authorized a trial month at Fuse45, and when charged for the following month immediately contacted them and merely requested to put the month on hold as I was traveling and could not use the service. When the response was "no, we can't do that, it's against our policy" I immediately contacted my credit card company as 1) I did not authorize the charge and 2) could not be able to make the $140 worth it. At this point I have asked that all subsequent months be canceled as I will not support a business that does not support its clients and their individual needs. It is manipulative and in poor taste to charge customers for services when they have 1) communicated they do not want said service and 2) do not utilize the service.

I love this place! Killer workouts, monthly challenges, and bomb ass instructors make this studio…read moremy favorite work out spot. What I love the most is it's never the same workout twice. A new day brings a new set of workouts and class format. Different instructors also help to spice things up! Jerilyn, Joe, Alison - I'm looking at you guys! All of the instructors are knowledgeable, motivating, and really push you to do more. I love the formats of the classes. Each set is 45 seconds which is great for me because I get bored easily. It's helped me to realize that I can do anything for 45 seconds, no matter how hard it is. Since I have been attending classes regularly, I've been feeling much stronger, had more energy, and even decreased pain with a longtime shoulder injury. Not to mention, dropping 10 lbs (along with dietary changes). Even though the workouts are exhausting and take everything out of me, Fuse45 really has become my happy place. If you have been thinking about it, give it a try. Your future self will thank you :)

I found MCB through the Olympian medalist, Kate (Nye) Vibert, and stopped by to try it out. I was blown away. It checked all my boxes and then some. I have an open-gym membership and have 24-7 access to the gym (perfect for my schedule), NICE equipment, and killer atmosphere. The part I love most is the family I joined. Since day one, as an outsider, I felt welcomed and valued as a member. Justin, the owner and head coach, is knowledgeable, humble, and just a genuinely good person. If olympic weightlifting isn't your thing, the gym can accommodate for general fitness and personal training as well!

I left this gym towards the end of 2023. My time at this gym was great, however the cancellation…read moreprocess left a sour taste in my mouth and therefore the overall experience gets a 1 star. Such a shame, but I don't and will never support shady business practices. To anyone looking to join this gym, be careful if you ever need to cancel. The contract you sign upon joining the gym states that you need to give 30 days notice, which is typical of most gyms and was not the problem. What the business owner does not tell you is that you need to give 30 days notice prior to your final payment (you pay first & last month of dues upon signing). Therefore, when you cancel you have two months left to use the gym. As I was relocating, I no longer had any need to use the gym for an additional two months. Additionally, the business owner failed to inform me that I had an additional month left to use. I think he does this knowing most people forget that you have paid first and last month's dues upon joining. Just really shady. At the end of the day, the cost of the one extra month to not use the gym was not that big of a deal to me, it was more just the principle behind this that really made me angry. The owner is really trying to get every dime out of you and I will never understand why doing this is worth it to him. Maybe he has gotten away with it and most people don't realize this upon cancellation. It really is such a shame because I honestly really liked this gym, but will never support shady business practices. When I come back to visit, I will be looking for day passes elsewhere.
