Cheshire North is my go to but Cheshire south has the additional space that allows for sled pushes and other excuses that require additional spacing. R3 has gotten me through two pregnancies, bounce backs post pregnancy, returns from injuries, and just through life's up and downs in general. I would highly recommend R3 to anyone looking to make changes, build a sense of community, and reach their fitness goals!

I've been training at S&L Fitness since 2012 and I truly can't say enough good things about it. My…read moreobjectives have drastically changed since I first started, from wanting to lose weight to creating more definition and gaining strength, and Lauren has evolved my training through all phases. I've achieved goals I never thought were possible, as seemingly small as doing my first completely unassisted pull-up, and as big as a complete overhaul of my body image and self-confidence. I'm not a huge fan of commercial gyms and S&L is the perfect solution - you can choose private, one-on-one sessions, or group sessions with the NICEST people, never intimidating and always an uplifting, encouraging environment no matter if you're just starting out or have been coming for years. If you're looking for a personal trainer, you won't be disappointed!

Becoming a member of the YMCA has made me fall back in love with fitness. I never realized how much…read morea gym can impact your motivation until I decided to give the Y a try. From the first day I went in for a trial Sally Darrow went above and beyond to answer any questions and make sure I was being served at the best capabilities. Before the Y I would make up so many excuses why I didn't have to go to the gym. The Y has such a great environment and so many things that contribute to making it a great gym of choice. I am so thankful a friend recommended this gym to me and so thankful Sally was very generous with assisting me. I am happy I fell back in love with fitness again and I owe it all to the Y.

I really wanted to love The Edge Fitness Clubs in Meriden because on paper it checked a lot of…read moreboxes for me. I originally joined for the movie theater cardio room, the group classes, and the women's only area. Being able to watch a movie while working out makes it much easier to stay motivated, especially on days when I forget my headphones. I also liked the idea of having classes to stay consistent and a women's only space where I could work out without feeling uncomfortable. Unfortunately, those features no longer feel like real benefits. The class schedule is extremely inconvenient. No matter what shift I worked, the classes were either very early in the morning or late in the evening after dinner. Once I am home and have eaten, I am not going back out to the gym, especially knowing it will disrupt my sleep. The biggest issue for me was the women's only area. It no longer seems to be women only. I was on a treadmill when a man came over and started working out next to me while staring, which made me extremely uncomfortable. That was the final straw because that space was one of the main reasons I chose this gym in the first place. On top of that, many of the machines feel outdated, and the overall environment just no longer fits what I am looking for in a gym. Canceling was also frustrating. The only way to cancel is by email or physical mail, and responses take a long time. Even though I submitted my cancellation more than two weeks before my next billing cycle, I was told I would still be charged for another month anyway. At this point, I am relieved to be canceling. What originally made this gym appealing is no longer being delivered, and the cancellation process only added to the disappointment.
