My friends and I were in town for mini girls trip, so Boothcamp was the ideal sweat spot to stop into. Both the interior and exterior of the gym are very appealing to the eye. There is a huge garage door at the front that opens up to the street to let in the fresh air (and allow you to easily get outside for a few drills....!) The space is long and narrow lined up and down with different workout equipment. Had me wishing I would be able to come back to try out the other workouts and circuits! We saw Shawn, but didn't take his class (as it was of course full), but our instructor Jordan was fantastic. He put us through three rounds of five stations (at two minutes each)... it was a damn good full body workout. We used a variety of weights, jump-boxes, med-balls, ropes, and bikes. I fully appreciate when a class it taught by someone who clearly loves to be there, cares about their clients, and provides motivation. So thanks, Jordan! I will be sure to drop in again next time I'm in town!

Great gym and awesome owner! He had a passion for what he does and definitely worth checking out!read more

You guys, don't hesitate; run to a class! I'm currently signed up for a free week trial and I've never felt more comfortable during a (pretty intense) workout class. And feel great about myself! It's a pretty simple set up, you walk in and that one room is all. So it's not as big as other locations, but that's okay because you have all the room you need. There are cubby's for personal item and water fountains (can't remember if there is a bathroom). And then the rest is the workout floor! I recommend researching what makes F45 unique because they have so many different classes. Short and simple, the class is set up in stations and you rotate through them. So you don't have to set anything up or put anything away. There are two personal trainers walking around the room and the demonstration and timer for your station are on a screen in front of you. My biggest ehhh about F45 is that it's all on the screen..cool but I feel like it's a bit of $$$ for a less than personal interaction during my station. Also there is minimal warm up and no cool down. Would love to see a 5 min stretch incorporated. Overall, this location was so welcoming and inviting and pushed me to my limits without me unsafe. Even though your station is on the screen, the trainers were always helpful and helped with form and modifications. Loved coming here and will see what I decide after my free trial!

Of course I signed for my credit card, but I honestly didn't look at the price bc every box we've been to across the country always just adds $5-10 for a shirt, not an additional $25. So pretty bummed we spent over $90. Just a thing to remember if you want a shirt when you drop in.

One of the very first things I noticed about this local business is the fact that they included pronouns of all their instructors directly next to the class name. I thought that was so inclusive and awesome...and to be honest, I have never seen it before in any fitness or yoga class I've ever attended. It says so much to me about their values as a studio. I attended the trauma informed yoga class with Sarah via ZOOM. I really appreciated how easy the studio made it for me to find the link and that the process was seamless. Another thing that attracted me to the studio was that I was astounded with the diversity of experience, education, and the focus on mental and spiritual health that their website explained for instructors. For example, Sarah is a body positive advocate that doesn't believe in diet culture or fatphobia. She has a focus on trauma informed practices and making yoga accessible to all bodies. Her bio online says she has worked with many different organizations as a licensed master social worker. It makes a huge difference when the folks who teach trauma yoga classes actually know what they are doing versus trying to implement something they read in a book. Overall, I had a wonderful experience with the studio, even if my own computer issues did force me to have to log out early (if you're reading this Sarah, sorry about that!) If I find myself near music Row in Nashville I wouldn't hesitate to take another yoga class at this wonderful place.

I am not a workout class person, but more of a struggle in silence while trying to figure out what…read moreto do in the gym. I found this gym through a long search for trauma informed yoga classes. As of Feb 2022, this gym is the only gym/studio in town that offers these classes and they're once a month on Sunday afternoons. The teacher was good and the class was very chill and low intensity. To attend that class, I bought 14 days for $14. As a first year teacher, I try to get my money's worth out of things so I decided to push myself out of my comfort zone and sign up for a class. The gym is a little hard to find your first time depending on where you're coming from, since it's underneath the yoga studio at street level. I came in, nervous and not knowing what to expect. I had signed up for Sweat with Jess, the owner. Sweat is a circuit class, but there's a lot of flexibility on what exercises you actually do. Jess led us in a warm up then explained the first circuit, but I must have looked like a deer in the headlights. She came up to me and quietly asked if I needed some help and I said yes please. She got me some small weights, demonstrated, then stayed with me until I got it. She was fantastic at checking in with me throughout the class in a quiet, respectful way. I've never met a class instructor like her, who was equal parts personable and professional. She was so encouraging, kind, funny, and clearly knew her stuff. It was a good workout, but I really appreciated that she told us to listen to our bodies and do what we needed. The class flew by too, which I have never said about a workout class. I've already signed up for my next class! I cant even put all the amazing things about this gym in a review, partially because my hands are sore from the kettlebell. I highly recommend checking out their website, they have a fantastic vision/ purpose.

I've had plenty of different gym memberships across town depending on where I lived at the time - but I won't be back to this one. Let's start with the good. Location is great, fees are not bad, small gym (which is fine). These are initial observations when I signed up. Now, we shimmy on over to the "not-so-good" part of the review. I got to GFA at 5:45 AM and popped into the restroom really quick. Very dirty restroom. Honestly... disgusting. So I simply deduce either a) no one cares to clean up after themselves here or b) no one is on staff during the night to make sure the customers needs are being met. I took pictures to share, but I'll spare you (you're welcome). Not a deal breaker, but not an amazing start. The first treadmill I jumped on didn't work (touch screen controls seemed to be completely dead). No big deal. The second didn't work either (same issue). The third treadmill took a lot of work to get going, but it finally worked. I noticed that there was a TON of dirt caked inside the treadmill air vents (I included a picture) which are pointed directly at your face while running. Also, not awesome. I ran with a wince for 45 minutes. Additional observations. Weight room is very small (don't love to workout in tight spaces - again, personal preference), there are no showers, and FOX news was blaring all morning. Unfortunately at this time, I cannot recommend GFA and will not be extending my membership. I hope your experience is better than mine should you choose them for your local gym.

We always enter from the "access trail" side. It is a smaller parking lot but we like coming in from this side. Depending on what time you get there, you may have a slight wait time to park but it is usually pretty quick and efficient. We usually arrive before 8:30am and have had no problem finding a spot. There are I believe at least 2 handicap spots at this entrance. They also have bathrooms available that are always clean and kept up. At the main entrance, entering from (otter creek). There is a welcome center with information and a small gift shop. Before bringing a stroller we would always go on the trail through the park woods but now with our baby and taking a stroller we take the paved path which was just redone and is SO nice!!! Strollers and bikes are not permitted on the dirt path so keep that in mind. There is so much beauty to look at while enjoying a nice peaceful walk. Eagles, owls, deer, frogs, turtles, birds, and more creatures to look at all while visiting Radnor. It is a staple as a local to get outdoors and into fresh air.

This parking lot is smaller, but we were surprised to find a spot easily. When we left around 10:45, there was a line of about 6 cars waiting, though cars seemed to move through fairly quickly. There is a nice bathroom at the top of the parking lot. From this entrance, you can also access the trail along the lake, though strollers and dogs are not allowed on that trail. We chose the lower paved trail instead (part of the mulch trail loop). It's wide -- almost road-sized -- and newly paved the entire way. It took about 15 minutes to reach the lake, and there's plenty more paved trail beyond that. We saw frogs, ducks, turtles, deer, an owl, and even a bald eagle. My kids stayed engaged the whole time. The trail was flat and easy for stroller pushing, and my older kids rode scooters without any issues. There were lots of families, dogs, and walkers out, but it never felt overcrowded. Overall, this is a great near-the-city option for getting young kids into nature without dealing with steep terrain. The other entrance off Granny White has the visitor center and a bit more parking.

I feel like an athlete; I haven't felt like an athlete since High School (that was a long time ago). I have always hated working out. I tried just about every "trendy" workout class, knowing I wouldn't go to the gym on my own, and always quit after a few weeks (or months, if I was lucky). Sure, I saw fitness results, but I got bored with the same-ole' thing, and couldn't' stick with it. I realize now, that I didn't have the right support or coaching I needed to stick with my fitness plan. I literally had to be pulled through the front door on the first night of Crossfit Forte 101 classes. To put it mildly, I was terrified. I was used to pretty little studios with fancy equipment and work-outers wearing makeup- this place was a concrete box of sweat and terror. I did horribly in my first workout, but the encouragement I received and the pride I felt after finishing (read: not dying during) that first class made me want to come back. A long-time student hung around to help us through our class, told us her experience, eased our anxieties, and cheered us on. I kept wondering why someone who just finished what looked like a miserable workout, would want to hang around and work out with a bunch of newbies?! Every class I went to, folks I hadn't met yet introduced themselves. They got there early and stayed late to work on weaknesses and help their friends do the same, they really seemed to LIKE being at the gym. There were no judging eyes or condescending comments about my "performance", only encouragement and support. I started to look forward to getting to the gym (wait, wwwwhhhaaaatttt?!), I was getting there early and hanging around after classes "playing" with weights and on the pull up bar; that's when I realized I had taken a big ole' sip of the koolaid. Now, there's no going back and I'd have it no other way. Evan and Katelyn, the owners of Forte, have created an environment where everyone is welcome, no matter your skill level. They can take a former competitive cheerleader and soccer player, who after 10 years and an additional 15 (ok maybe 30) pounds, thought her prime was well behind her (that's me!), and help her realize the best is yet to come. This is because they are insanely amazing coaches. Not just because they know how to do the movements, show you properly and correct you when necessary- which is VITAL, but because they know how to coach each person individually to get the best out of them. They see the nuances which are hindering overcoming a plateau, and explain to the smallest detail what to tweak to fix it. They know when to yell at you to motivate and help you push through, when to hold off, and when to start running in the back of the pack with you, so you won't stop and walk. They know their shit, and it's all encompassing; not just the fitness element: it's nutrition (That new fad diet is actually TERRIBLE for you, bacon is GOOD), supplements (this fish oil won't make your breath smell like you just ate Nemo and all of his friends), mobility and stretching (if you mobilize your hips properly, you can twerk like Miley), pain relief (whiskey- kidding, kind of), etc. Evan and Katelyn practice what they preach- impeccable form, hard work, continual learning, and a whole lot of fun. Nine months after joining Forte, I can do pull-ups (never been able to before, never thought I would), I know what olympic lifting is, and think it's hilarious to say "snatch" and "jerk" and "thruster" and it's totally appropriate. I have a huge new group of friends, family really, who will never again let me be lazy. I have coaches, and teammates, and I'm an athlete. I've never felt better about myself, physically or emotionally. Crossfit has changed my life in incredibly positive ways, and I don't think I could have made this transformation anywhere else but Crossfit Forte. read more

Forte - Implementing CrossFit the right way What is CrossFit? "A regimen of constantly varied, functional movements performed at high intensity in a communal environment leads to health and fitness." 1) Coaching All the Forte coaches are competitors, they love every aspect of this program and constantly push themselves(and willing members) to new heights. Every class gets a good group mobility/warm-up session. Every class receives thorough instructions and movement progressions. Every coach will help you correct your form and pick the appropriate weight if needed. They will help you understand whatever your current ailment may be and put you on the right track to make it better. They are also really encouraging - you'll be in a dark place in a WOD, and you'll hear "C'MON!"... and you push through that wall. Additionally, they train each and every person to "Games" standards - if it won't fly in the CrossFit Open, it won't fly here. No shady non extension box jumps are allowed; they won't no rep you on any given WOD, but you will be reminded of movement standards and pushed to do them at all times. This is awesome. 2) Community Forte is like one big family without the drama. Come as you are. Every time someone drops in, they are getting a big warm southern welcome. We work out hard together, and often times play hard together outside of the gym - but it's not like there is a closed high school-ish clique. Come on by, lift some weights, and maybe grab a cold one later. It's unlike any other gym I've been too, a lot of places fail to develop this part of the experience. 3) Superior Programming Forte programs the daily workout with a combination of Strength training and a WOD. Check out their WOD archives on their website to see what I'm talking about. This systematic approach to increasing everyone's functional strength works really really well. By going 4-5x a week I am constantly improving my WOD's, my general physical preparedness and getting stronger; what more could you ask for? 4) Mobility Forte has a large emphasis on mobility this allows all members to perform at a higher level. On most Sunday mornings there is a hour long class taught by Fortes' resident Physical Therapist - Ben. It's amazing, try it. Also, any of the coaches will be glad to help you address any specific issues you may be having. Most people at Forte follow MobilityWOD to turn mobility into a lifestyle. Another amazing thing about Forte is that Ben (the licensed PT), hosts private movement and mobility sessions. He'll spend the entire time with you working on your mobility issues, it's unlike any other service I've ever had with a PT. Ben is 10x better than your average PT because he is also a CrossFit Level 1 Trainer, as well as an unstoppable beast in a WOD. 5) Facility Forte's got an amazing space. There is plenty of room and equipment for everyone. The gym is huge, and there is a separate large air conditioned changing/hang out/mobility space as well. Members are good about cleaning up after themselves for each class; the gym stays clean. 6) Seminars Forte sometime hosts seminars from outside experts, like Molly Mets (Jump N Rope - Double Unders), or even John North with his Attitude Nation Olympic Weightlifting program. They also have regular events that specialize on things like pose running, clean and jerks, gymnastics, and sometimes a double under support group. These programs are a great value added, and I have benefited greatly from them. read more

I have been athletic most all of my life. I've played soccer, basketball, cheerleading (only 1 year), and running competitively. I ran 4 years of D1 cross country and track in college. And to be honest, this past year I have had some of the best workouts of my life at CrossFit Forte! I've weight trained since I was in middle school, and I've done some cardio and plyometric stuff here and there throughout my athletic career. However, I have never had so much fun and seen results so quick as I have this year as a CrossFit athlete! This gym - the coaches, the athletes, the equipment, the space - have been amazing. My involvement here, working out and learning about nutrition and the Paleo diet, has enabled me to lose 20 lbs. of "baby weight" that I couldn't kick just by running. CrossFit Forte is an amazing place, and I wish I could be there working out more often. I highly recommend it if you're looking for a place that will hold you accountable and coach you through lifting, working out, setting PR's, and pushing yourself to accomplish goals you never thought you could. Try it for yourself, and tell them "Courtney" sent you! (= read more

I had an extremely positive my experience at CrossFit Forte. I really appreciate when people do things with excellence and truly believe people should be told when they do things well. Jake Coleman was an incredible instructor that really did a phenomenal job with the first two intro sessions, taking the time to explain technique and "the why" behind movements in such a way that made it very clear to me what gym I was going to choose. As a former collegiate athlete, I value quality coaches and don't say these things lightly. There was a professionalism with the coaches at this gym and an overall care to invest in the goals/ growth of members that was apparent. Keep doing what you guys are doing. read more

I am a 38 year old cancer survivor who, thanks to Crossfit Forte, is stronger, faster, leaner, more muscular and healthier than I was 20 years ago. Evan and Katelyn run the gym like true professionals: the wods start and end on time, the box is clean, proper technique and safety are paramount, and respect and encouragement of others is the norm. The members are diverse in age, profession, background, hometown and interests. But the common denominator for us all, I believe, is that we want to improve, we enjoy each other, and we are all appreciative of the community that Evan, Katelyn and all the coaches and members have created.

Optimum 650 Personal Training Studio

Every session is challenging--mind and body--but I have never felt as supported. You work at your own pace, but you will also walk away doing things you never thought you would do. I went into Optimum 650 and could barely do ten modified push-ups. At the end of the summer, I could do 50. I also lost an inch and a half around my waist and hips in just two months. Every class and session is lead by a passionate and dedicated instructor who is, above all, focused on helping you reach your fitness goals using proper form and proven techniques. I just can't say enough about John and the other trainers. I will definitely be a lifetime client; I currently live in Cookeville but I can't wait to come back to Brentwood for the summer just to train at Optimum 650.

I am so glad I finally went, as this place is perfect for me- it's very private, and Jennifer is awesome, very friendly and supportive- I've lost 5 lbs, and feel so much better- and I still party plenty! I go twice a week, and actually look forward to my sessions- WHAT?

Marty has helped me reach my fitness goals in a healthy and safe manner. Marty goes above and beyond most trainers. The plan he gives each client is personalized according to their health history, (including current injuries), current level of fitness, and also their goals.

LEAN Personal Training

Professional trainers that ACTUALLY cater to your personalized physical heatlh needs!…read more My previous trainer in Chicago was actually overweight which made me feel like, "If he's asking me to do these things, shouldn't he practice what he preaches?!" So when I moved to Nashville, I ventured out to find a new personal trainer in Nashville, independent of large franchised gyms. When I first walked into LEAN, I was pretty nervous. You know walking into a gym with fit people and me walking with my gut hanging out made me feel really uncomfortable. But all the trainers aren't here to judge, they're here to actually make you feel better by losing weight and making you stronger and even provide educational classes on nutrition on occasion. I've been going to LEAN for the past few months and they really know how to motivate you to go one step further that I probably wouldn't be able to do on my own. For me and probably like many others, I lacked the motivation to push myself to my limit, hindered by negative attitude. The trainers at LEAN positively motivate and encourage you to do your best and whip you up into shape. If your New Year's resolution is to get in shape in Nashville, go to LEAN personal training!

I've been going to Lean since September 2018, working with Scott McCaa, and I can't say enough…read moreabout my experience! I'm normally not one to write reviews but working with Scott has truly transformed my health and confidence. In addition to eating healthy foods, I'm in the best shape of my life thanks to Scott. He pushes me to workout harder than I would alone, he makes sure I have the right form so the exercises are both safe and effective, and he's constantly changing the exercises and increasing the endurance so that my body continues to improve and we meet my goals. I was never someone who liked working out but honestly I've reached a point where I not only enjoy it but look forward to it, and that's thanks to Scott. I've lost 25 pounds and feel significantly stronger throughout my entire body. I can do exercises I was not able to do before (and would not have attempted) such as dead lifting 175 pounds. So if you are wondering if a trainer is worth the time and money, in my experience, I would say that it absolutely is. Personal training is a serious time and money commitment, however, you will achieve things you never thought you could. I would highly recommend working with Lean, specifically Scott McCaa. Over the 8 months I've been going there all of the trainers I've interacted with have been friendly, knowledgeable and professional. Thank you Scott!

I highly recommend working with her because of the following: 1) Attention to detail (In 2 sessions she knew exactly what my physical limits were and built workouts to help me learn better form and build my body in a healthy and manageable way) 2) Undivided attention (I never had her look at her phone or talk to someone else during our sessions, she's always 100% attentive to you, and that's something I really appreciate) 3) Nutrition mentoring (I don't eat unhealthy things, but Dallas made me realize foods that were better alternatives and which ones I should stay away from in order to achieve a better workout and achieve the physique I wanted. She'll never shame you for indulging in sweets or carbs either, which I'm definitely grateful for) 4) Knows when you push you and when to rest (I used to always get sick after high intensity workout classes and could never get through group sessions, but Dallas made workouts that challenged me without overextending my body. I always leave Next Level Fitness knowing my body was pushed to its limits in a healthy way) 5) Fun workouts that are engaging and different! (Honestly I would be the last person to say this, but dare I say that workouts now are actually fun?! Whether we're doing floor exercises, stuff on a machine or weights, I never know what's coming next. If you're like me and always wanted to try new things at the gym but didn't know how, Dallas will definitely build your confidence and get you excited about challenging yourself!) Since the first day, the owner Jack has always remembered my name and greets you when you come and when you leave. No matter who's in the gym you always feel so welcomed, which I can't say for anywhere else I've been! For COVID procedures, I felt that they took good precautions to make sure the safety of everyone is prioritized. Next Level Fitness makes sure to have a certain number of people in the gym at all times and the trainer wipes down everything as soon as you've used it. If you prefer the trainer to wear a mask they can. Just some extra brownie points: The gym playlist is ALWAYS poppin' and the bathrooms are SERIOUSLY amazing. The luxurious feel when you step into this gym is unlike any other, which is so weird to say because it's a GYM! You definitely get your money's worth and coming here is absolutely an enjoyable and fun experience, so don't hesitate and try this place out!
