RARE Crossfit is the BEST! The coaching staff, the workouts, the community, the support! If you are…read moreconsidering a great community/ gym, I highly recommend you give them a call. Maybe you've been "trying" things on your own, downloading apps, paying for subscriptions and gym memberships you don't use, watching videos, food documentaries and reading stuff online "trying" to convince yourself that you're learning and making forward progress. Yet, you find yourself in the same place, year after year. I know because I did the same thing and my way wasn't working. I knew I needed accountability, instruction, support sprinkled with some friendly competition. The owners Adam, Lee and their coaches are absolutely amazing and provided all the support I needed for me to get out of my own way and start seeing the results. It doesn't matter how long it's been or what you're shape you're in, what matters is that you decide, and that you show up. I was able to lose 4% body fat, and gained 5 lbs of muscle with the 6 week challenge and continued on. Whenever I got busy or slipped back into my old ways, miss a week or whatever, someone from RARE always called me or texted with encouragement and got my butt back in. I could make any and every excuse not to go (work, kids, stuff, life, busy), RARE always reminded me my why and that I'm worth it. We make time for the things that are most important to us. There are a lot of good gyms out there. RARE Crossfit just does it better. With RARE, there is no more guesswork, they leave no room for you to fail. You will have to put in the work though. Having said all that, RARE CrossFit "IS" the premier workout COMMUNITY. We are all friends that support and root for each other's personal best. Thank you RARE Crossfit for being amazing!

I'm writing this review not only as someone who has worked out at RARE CrossFit, but also as…read moresomeone who has rented office space from the facility. Adam and Lee are excellent gym owners and human beings. I rented office space for my business (Prestige Chiropractic) for one year, and I can tell you that these people are COMMITTED to helping everyone become as fit as possible. I have personally seen Adam, Lee, and Dee putting in countless hours at their facility to help out every individual they possibly can. Whether it be their CrossFit members or their boot camp members, they bring their A-game to their clients to help them achieve fitness and lifestyle goals. They are extremely passionate and give so much to bring value to RARE CrossFit. 5 stars.

Let's talk about how hard it been for business and gyms during COVID-19 and post-COVID-19. I signed…read moreup for YMCA membership for the discount for the before and after school SACC and summer program at a discount rate. The location of this gym at a great place. There's a lot of parking space when it's not holding swimming meets and baseball games during those events. It's going to be hard to find parking. The gym is currently being renovated for upgrades in this facility. It expanding by adding a hot tub, sauna, spin room, and yoga. It's upgrade the entrance lobby as well. During this COVID-19 pandemic, you are required to use the app to reserve weight room, Group gym classes, and pool swim lanes. They are still offering group swimming lessons at $65 for members and non-members $75. They offer private swim lessons as well. I'm still waiting for them to open up the hot tub though. I'm excited for that after postworkiuts.

Overall it's a good gym, though a little higher priced compared to some other Y's. The fitness room…read morehas a great variety of equipment and kept up well. Lots of excercise classes to choose from. Love the MX4 class and that it has its own room. Other Ys often charge for similar programs so it's great this is included. The staff and members are all pleasant. Everyone is very encouraging of each other in group fitness classes. The hot tub is wonderful. Enjoy the steam room and sauna. There's a lot of water exercise classes with great instructors and plenty of lanes for lap swimming. Lifeguards are always friendly and willing to answer questions. Only issue I have with this location is the pool area. The humidity is too high in the pool. Water is 84 and air temp around 72. Due to this black algae is forming on the windows, ceiling, pool floor, binders and papers. The pool staff including lifeguards and instructors are in this area all day. Not only that, the Y has not publicly told its patrons yet about the algae yet which can cause serious health issues. Especially for the elderly and young. Not only has the staff not informed the members, but they have not informed their preschool families who go swimming every Friday. And went swimming the Friday before winter break. I feel the members and the families of these preschool students have a right to know what's going on so they can decide if they want to use the pool currently or wait till the issue is fixed.

Terry and his wife Eileen are the two chiropractors that I have used my whole life and they have…read morealways done a terrific job. Whenever I pulled something in sports growing up their "adjustments" would immediately help ease the pain. More importantly they did a great job explaining the causes of my injuries and what I could do to prevent them in the future through correct exercise/stretching. They are both extremely nice people and would often take time out of their days to talk to the local high school sports teams about correct diet and exercise. They also have a training center with programs you can sign up to use. I have never personally used the training center, but a lot of my friends have and they all had very good experiences there.

I have lower back pain and sciatica. These conditions are quite common. I went to Orange…read moreChiropractic Center with an open mind seeking relief from my pain. I arrived early every visit yet often felt rushed. I was placed on the spinalator table which feels like a relaxing, gentle massage meant to improve and maintain mobility of the spine. Problem was only once was I allowed to stay on the table long enough for the timer to actually time out and go off. The services received by Dr. Eileen Whelan did not help my condition. I felt worse after the chiropractic treatments and needed to take Advil for the pain. On my last visit I was presented with a plan made up for me to visit the workout center using their trainer under the Chiropractor's supervision. I am not overweight nor in need of work out machines. I said I was not interested. The attitude changed much like a time share salesperson does as soon as you say "no thanks, it's not for me". When asked why I was not willing to keep coming 2x a week, I tried to explain how I was rushed off the spinalator table but I was interrupted by Dr. Eileen Whelan so I politely stopped talking to listen yet I was not given the chance to respond. I was actually told not to come back again. I said you are overreacting. I got the feeling if I was not overjoyed with her care I was no longer welcome- ever again! In my opinion this office seems to be Chiropractors that set up their practice with the intention of keeping the clients coming indefinitely.

We rented the Little Fish Swimming Pool in Fredericksburg (Central Park) location. I must say, I…read morewas very impressed with the location and the space. The children had a great time. Little Fishers provided 2 pizzas and some drinks from The local pizza place. We weren't sure if it would be enough, so we ordered more. Little Fish provided more than enough pizza for all the kids, the parents and probably some random people in the street. Everything for my son'3rd party was great except the TV's in the party areas did not work. It is hard to left 2-4year old attentive when they are finished swimming. We wanted to show Mickey's Fun House on the TV's. We talked to the staff on numerous occasion and still didn't get any assistance or even a discount for lack of TV. Other than that, I enjoyed the party, but would caution people to verify the everything works. On a good note all the kids were provided with floaties and splash splashed until they could splurge splash anymore

The team was very helpful in explaining all the rules and how kid's progress to the next levels. His coach was extremely patient and fun! My only "complaint " was the pool entrance wasn't clearly marked , only the back side door was unlocked so we were scrambling for 10 minutes trying to figure out how to get inside.
