The class is diverse in terms of age and ability, which makes it welcoming. And the equipment is the latest OTF style and working well. I leave class thrilled to be done and physically exhausted.

Orangetheory's customer service is a complete disaster. I've spent months trying to cancel my…read moreAlabama membership as I never relocated there, and no one will help me. The studio doesn't answer calls or emails, and when I finally got someone on the phone, they admitted they had no idea what to do. Now I'm getting emails saying my membership will resume despite all my efforts to cancel. It's ridiculous that a national brand operates this carelessly. They make it easy to take your money but impossible to leave. I would never recommend this location or this company to anyone.

What a workout! I tried their free, first time rate and it was definitely a kick start to my day…read more The place was really clean and there's motivational quotes on the doors that really help set the vibe. My instructor walked me through the basic moves before class and helped me put on my wraps. The actual workout was a combo of boxing and various weighted moves. You can catch on pretty quickly and I definitely saw room to grow. I got a hand written thank you at the end and some special offers via email Totally worth the visit!

This gym's primary focus is strength training vs. HIIT or cardio (as you could probably infer from the gym name). As someone who has struggled with body image, disorder eating, and gym intimidation, a gym being able to make me feel included and comfortable really is a BIG thing. The trainers (& other members) know you by name and are real life normal people! The location has moved to awesome/beautiful space near Pepper Place as well. I've been at Steel for over a year and am very satisfied with my experience! If you've been looking for a place to call your fitness home, I cannot recommend enough.

I don't like to workout. I'm not a gym person. I don't flex. I hate squats with a passion…read more But I knew my health was in the toilet and that I needed help. A few friends had tried Steel Strength Training and only had great things to say. I knew I needed a program that I could actually maintain rather than try for a few months and fall off, and they seemed like the perfect fit. After speaking with Nate, the owner, I came in early one morning for an initial consultation. He showed me around the gym and explained the program to me. We even tried a few workouts to gauge where I was and talked over my goals and what I needed to get out of the program. The rest, as they say, is history. I've been with Steel for over six months now and show now signs of stopping. They give you the tools you need to succeed inside and outside of the gym. I'm stronger than I've ever been and have a level of flexibility and movement that I never thought I could have. I still don't like the gym but there's a huge difference between not liking something and dreading it. I don't dread going to the gym anymore. I can see results both physically and mentally and that's the best part. I have so far to go but I know I'll reach my goals with Steel Strength Training. If you want a gym that gives you a sustainable plan that you can stick to, try these guys out!

But there comes a time when you just need to mix it up and try something different. And when it was Luan heading it up, you know when it comes to the cutting edge of fitness in Bham, he is the man and so follow him I did and I am so glad I did!!! There is a "cross-fit" aspect to the conditioning workouts, although with a definite twist. Everyday is not a 1,2,3 go and hit your redline. You actually spend time during the week working on positioning and form. There is one day focusing on active recovery. Some days they will throw in steel maces which are so much fun and beyond challenging. It's all about the whole body, including what you put in your body as well. To top things off, during every class time, there is a simultaneous class running in strength training and Olympic weightlifting. Because its not all about conditioning, but all recent studies in fitness and keeping your body in top condition is including strength training. And with Luan at the helm who has devoted his career in the fitness world to the study of Olympic weight training, this is the real deal. And don't be afraid if you have never done it. The trainers are there to work your through and make sure your form and movement is where it should be. WH has even formed an Olympic weightlifting team that has been competing around the southeast and doing really well. But not only do you get top equipment and instruction, the community is one of the best I have ever been associated with. Encouraging, open, caring and just people you want to hang with. You really do end of feeling it is your home away from home. The people of WH are here to help you succeed, reach for your best self, and make sure you do it safely. WH is always running deals where you can try it for a week for free or pay for only a month so you can try it before you jump on in and commit. I promise if you try it...you will find your home. Thank you for the training WH!

A lot of gyms have some great qualities, but very few gyms go above and beyond in all areas…read more Wheelhouse is one of those few. No other gym I know of has the same level of professional and intentional coaches and staff. They have gone to great lengths to make the gym both as useful and accessible to as many people as possible. For example, there are regular class options for those who want to be apart of a class, there are drop-in options, and they now have open gym option for people who just want to use the facility to train on their own. Not to mention if you pay for regular classes, you also have open gym access whenever the doors are open. Suffice it to say that if you're looking for an awesome gym in Birmingham, chances are high WHA will meet your needs. Lastly but also importantly, the facility and equipment are top of the line and competition-ready. The strength class uses the Rogue Olympic Weightlifting barbells and plates, and the conditioning side has Concept2 rowers, SkiErg, and Assault AirBikes in addition to also having more Rogue barbells, plates, and dumbbells as well. So much more to say, but Wheelhouse is an easy 5 stars!

It's typically older gentleman talking politics and just hanging on the machines. V annoying. 2nd and probably more important: PUT RE RACK SIGNS UP YMCA!!! The plates are constantly left on EVERY free weight machine. Literally chest press/lat pulldowns/rows always are left with plates still racked. Ive seen multiple smaller men and women struggle getting them off. Congrats you can row 200lbs, take the plates off when you're finished Shane, and if you sweat all over it in your tank, wipe the dam$ seat off.

The gym is big, but when it comes to the cardio and weight room, it feels claustrophobic when it's crowded. The men's restroom is located upstairs and is always kept clean. They do have a nice jacuzzi which I haven't used yet. Customer service is average which some employees greet you walking in and leaving and some don't which I don't take it seriously.
