When I first got back into the gym, post-covid, out-of-shape, I loved the concept of Orangetheory…read moreand was excited to try it. However, my body was not prepared for the intensity of the workouts. The treadmill running was particularly tough on an old foot injury. The instructors absolutely offered modifications to ease my foot woes, but my competitive nature didn't want to participate if I couldn't go all out. Fast forward 2 years later, I'm in much better shape physically and I decided to give it another go. The biggest challenge for me this time wasn't the workout itself, but rather to acknowledge my own limitations, resist my competitive nature, & heed alternatives to running - like walking on an incline OR using the strider. I enjoyed Orangetheory so much more this go-around, it's truly a great full body workout. I personally love the built-in variety, since you will always rotate between rowing, strength and treadmill work. If your goal is to maximize your one-hour at the gym, enjoy a mix of cardio & strength training, and burn a ton of calories, Orangetheory will deliver results.

I'm one of the few people in Missouri privileged with the opportunity to try the elite ARX machine…read moreat Biofit, and it left me truly amazed that I have had the honor of experiencing something that's going to change history and how people experience finding and building their own strength. This is a long review but every bit of it is necessary because this needs to be known, shared, and experienced!!! This exercise equipment has created a new neural pathway for me and how I now view exercise, my time spent at the gym and my ability to reach peak levels endurance. As a fitness enthusiast who's tried everything from P90X to Peloton, nothing compares to this experience. I love lifting free weights and unlike most people I don't count my reps per se I count my length of time doing each rep, which is the TUT method (time under tension). Most workout fanatics may use this method because it's so beneficial. Time under tension is the duration a muscle is under strain during exercise. It focuses on the time spent in each movement to enhance muscle growth and endurance. For me, this is the best and fastest way to tone up, get great blood flow to muscles (pump), and see results. What I now know is ARX eclipses the TUT method and any other machine out there. Now the tut method is great but even though you're holding that tension there's nothing but gravity working against you and your own strength which is great but be honest how hard to you really push yourself at the gym? With this state-of-the-art equipment, the machine is working against you via resistance BUT is also working for you. It's as if it's working every muscle everywhere all at once!! It somehow knows what limit to push your body to so you get the perfect amount of resistance, which in turn gives you the metrics of your own strength. Something lifting has never gauged for me better yet has never resisted against me to enhance my strength. ARX is so mind-boggling that talking about it doesn't do it justice--you must experience it in person! No matter what your strength level is, this machine will match you and make you work smarter, not harder, plus you can get a full-body workout in 10-15 minutes. My first time was less than 5 minutes on one machine and it was a leg press. I was in my casual everyday clothes. I wasn't wearing tennis shoes I was wearing heels jeans and a leather jacket! Why? I went in for a quick demo thinking it would be demonstrated for me by the owner. Nope watching would not have done me any good because you don't know the might of this machine until you experience it. So it bears repeating I was in high heels, and I was still able to accomplish a magnificent burn, experience a life transforming piece of equipment and more importantly I didn't have to take my shoes off and I didn't break a heel! Now, my second time was less than 10 minutes and was a full-body workout. This time I had on gym attire and tennis shoes were a must because after the experience the week before I wanted to see what I could really accomplish without worrying about snapping a heel off. At the end of my short session, I felt as if I had been working out for 45 minutes. I only used three machines and didn't lift a single weight!! My muscles were so taxed I couldn't complete my usual HIIT routine on the self powered treadmill, and in all honesty, that routine may become a thing of the past, along with my typical gym membership. These slick pieces of machinery will end up making typical gym equipment obsolete simply due to the science and metrics behind it. Plus, it's designed to give you one of the most efficient methods of working out, which is time under tension. The ARX is literally based on Time Under Tension (TUT) plus it tracks your strength metrics, tailors resistance to your personal limits, takes less than 10 minutes, and you can get results by using it once or twice a week!! I value my time very much, and being able to cut down my commute to and from the gym, the time in between sets, and the time to perform my workout is a win-win for me. It was an unparalleled workout experience. It's hands down the most amazing workout I've ever had! Talking about this is not the same as experiencing it. You MUST experience it then see how you feel the day after. I promise you'll want to go back and try beating your own scores again!

You may think that BioFit is just like any other small gym, but you would be completely mistaken…read more They have the best equipment around for a full body workout in just 15 minutes a week. That's right. . . . a full body workout in 15 minutes, only once a week. You have a scheduled appointment, so you have the trainer's individual attention. The short time needed for a complete workout is excellent for the busy professional and the personal attention is great for those who don't like the large gyms where you're lost in the masses not knowing how to use the equipment. Be sure to call BioFit to get your free demo. I promise you'll want to join the family!

I look forward to working with her every day. Like a lot of the other reviews mention; I don't even feel like I've been there an hour; it goes by so fast! But the workouts are intense and are set up in a way that I always feel motivated to push myself. (More than I ever have before) I am happy to report that I am signing up for a year membership; as well as their 6 week body transformation that starts in a couple of weeks. (Nutrition based). If you haven't found a gym or program that works for you, I urge you to try TF for a month!

On top of which, he's dependable and stays in touch with you if you have any questions outside of class.

They are welcoming, knowledgeable, professional and well organized. A supportive community with good class sizes. Prices are comparable with other boxes. My situation was unique in that I was looking to begin my life with crossfit, but was going to be moving out of the state at the end of the month so I would only be able to attend for 2 weeks, so they were accommodating and gave me a good introductory price. Can't say enough good things about Jordan and Duggy, 2 of the coaches you'll have classes with. I'm really grateful this was my initiation in to crossfit. Thanks to everyone at J5 and I hope you have continued success in the coming years!

There's more than meets the eye with this establishment. When I first researched But First, YOU…read moreLLC, I was looking at their therapy services. I then discovered that they offer so much more! But First, YOU identifies as a Family Wellness Boutique, and the name couldn't be more fitting. The owner has a PhD in Medical Family Therapy and offers mental and physical health services to adults, children, couples, and families. The mental health services of course include therapy. She then goes even further by offering fitness classes (she's also a coach!) such as spin and dance. Recently, she added infrared sauna therapy. Oh, and there's Reiki therapy healing too! As if that wasn't enough, she's also a doula and offers those services. Whew! I don't know when she sleeps! So far, I've tried the infrared sauna therapy, a spin class, and a dance class. SPIN CLASS - Oh my goodness! This was a major workout! I took a class that was taught/led by the owner. It was a Hip Hop Spin Class, and she had one of the BADDEST (as in awesome) mix-tape tapes I've ever heard. The tracks spanned from NWA to Meg Thee Stallion. It was HYPE! The instructor kept us motivated with her high energy and positive reinforcements. I love the way she incorporated cool downs after a few minutes of HIIT. She added some off-the-bike core work in there too. And she even has selfie stick stands for you to prop your phone and record your workout. She thought of everything! Again, GREAT workout! 10/10 would recommend. The ONLY downside is that spin class availability is limited to either 530am or 530pm, which I'm sure is perfect for the majority of the world who have a normal 9a-5p work schedule. INFRARED SAUNA THERAPY - Think hot box. You sit inside the sauna box (bigger than a phone booth; smaller than a bath house/ steam room), dressed to your comfort level and sweat away stress and water weight. It was a serene experience. The area felt like a spa room. There were candles, cucumber infused water, light snacks, fresh fruit, aromatherapy lotions, and music. I was even able to take a moment to meditate post the sauna therapy session. It was extremely relaxing and therapeutic. 10/10 would recommend. The prices were very reasonable for spin class and sauna therapy. I will definitely go back for more of each. Multi-class passes and monthly memberships are available for the spin classes. All of that information is on their website.
