Cheers to ECA Columbia City!…read more Starting with the Mission, Vision, and Values statement clearly displayed on the wall, this place "brings it" every day. I've been a devoted gym rat my entire life, and I've been a member of or visited hundreds of gyms across the country. The EAC in Columbia City matches the best of any of them. Their free weights, weight lifting machines, and cardio equipment, are all up to date, and both varied and plentiful, so waits are minimal. And their Champions area is both spacious and well equipped. But it all starts with their people. Starting at the front desk. Dallas, Huy, and Erika, are among the first faces you see and, as with all good customer facing companies, they are friendly, knowledgeable and helpful. And I've noticed that each regularly uses the seemingly lost skill of name recognition. They routinely display a proud sense of ownership. On every visit, I look forward to the words of encouragement from Dallas, and the smile and fist bump from Huy. On the back end, led by Zach, the fitness leader, they have a cadre of impressive trainers. Of the team, Sydney, Marcus, Sean, and Tre stand out for both their technical and interpersonal skills. Sydney, in particular, is both versatile and flexible whether an individual client or group is looking for weight training, conditioning, sparring/boxing, or simply lending an ear and a meaningful conversation. Similarly, Marcus is impressive with his high energy training and group Champions Class. He has, by far, the best music selection of any exercise class that I've ever been around. Kudos to the Emerald City Athletics!

My body needed a rest day for sure, these classes can be intense, but it makes you feel good. Most instructors are super fun, there were some I did not care for, I do not remember their names since I was just there for a short period of time. JD and Chris were very kool, oh and Sam. Who would have thought spin can be hard :))) I took their classes the most, not intentionally, and we had fun every time. It is very important while you are running out of breath :D I liked how my body was changing and how my stamina improved even in that one week. I am good at cardio and flexibility; I thought that weights are not my thing, but these awesome trainers proved me otherwise. F45 is not only a group class facility but a strong, caring community. And they make you feel like you are part of it very quickly. The instructors take classes with us too sometimes and they push you gently, I felt inspired not annoyed. My friends have an unlimited class and that is how you get your money worth, I checked Dallas, their promotion is $30 for 3 classes. Unfortunately, there is none close to me, and I know myself, if the gym is more than 10 min drive, I won't go. It is fine, cannot wait to come visit again and see those lovely peeps at F45.

I have been going to RoundBox for about 3 months now and I look forward to every session. Never I have I ever said "I looked forward to going to the gym", but Roundox is not your typical gym and that is why it works for me. Curt is a fantastic and a highly skilled personal trainer. He has developed a full body workout system that will keep you coming back for more! Give Roundbox a try!!

Once upon a time I was in great shape, could pump out pushups, deadlift, passed an FBI fitness…read moretest, and generally kicked ass. Then I started a business, work at least 12 hours a day, and decided to live on a credit account with my body, planning to repay the loan when there was "more time" in my days. Well, fast forward a few years and I found myself way over my credit limit with nowhere else to borrow from physically. I gained weight, lost all the muscle I had worked hard to build, and now that I am in my 40s, it does not fall off as soon as I decide I want to move around again. Enter Curt and Roundbox. Easily one of the best decisions i have made was restarting my fitness journey here. I actually look forward to my workouts. They are efficient and effective. I always leave feeling great. When I fall off the wagon, Curt gets me back on. The Roundbox workouts are fun, challenging, and do not hurt me the way other movements, kettlebells, etc. have. Highly recommend checking out Roundbox. I know this is where I need to be to get myself back where I want to be. Maybe it is where you need to be, too.

Taking Covid seriously…read more I've been working out here for years. Everything you needs; squat racks (2!), treadmills, peleton bikes, pull-up bars, jump ropes, dumb bells, etc. With the new Washington state requirements, I appreciate how seriously this gym is exceeding the guidelines. Equipment is placed far apart. Hand sanitizer and sanitizing wipes are everywhere. Masks are required at all times. Signup for workout time slots online. They are doing the best they can and I feel comfortable working out here.

DO NOT GO HERE!! I recently got a membership here and signed up for one of their designated time…read moreworkout slots, and I get there and the place is completely locked and dark. They won't answer any of the phone numbers they provide (I've called multiple different days/times) and they never provided a code or anything to get in. Having worked at a gym before, there is no excuse for this!! Complete scam, don't waste your money! I don't even know how I'm going to cancel my membership or even get a refund, considering it's impossible to contact them.

In addition to fairly new models of all the standard equipment, they also have a couple Peloton bikes - you can sign up for your own account but you don't have to pay anything extra to do classes on the bike, you just log in when you use it and log out when you're done. It's nice to be able to try it out or do rides occasionally without having to go all in on purchasing a bike! Management is easy to reach via email and have always been quick and responsive when I had questions. The building is easy to access with a code, and I didn't mind there not being any "onsite" staff. Parking on the street can be a little tricky since it's at a busy intersection, but I could usually find something a little further up the hill depending on time of day. So walking or public transit might be preferable for getting there. If you are going to be driving primarily, the street parking at the Beacon Hill location is easier in my opinion. Also note that while they do have 2 locations, a membership that gives you access to both gyms (dual membership) costs more than a membership to a single location. But switching our membership from one to the other was simple to do via email.

There is plenty of room for people to work out if they don't want to do a group class and mirrors so you can check your form. There are 4 bathrooms with showers, towels, a locker space area, and a secure door for checking in the gym. Lot's of great amenities and space here :) I'm so sad I moved and won't be able to continue my membership here with all these perks. But any time I am in town, I will definitely drop in to do my programming.

He takes the time to get to know the members personally, and it really shows in the atmosphere of the gym. The equipment is high quality, well maintained, and the gym has everything I need for a great workout. I also appreciate the straightforward pricing. Unlike many larger gyms, there aren't a bunch of miscellaneous fees or unnecessary add-ons. One thing that really stands out is how well the gym is cared for. That's a reflection of both Chris and the members. Chris sets the tone by taking pride in the facility, and the people who work out there do the same. Everyone seems to treat the equipment and the space with respect, so it stays in great condition and has a welcoming, community feel. I highly recommend Urban Playground Gym to anyone looking for a great place to work out with a supportive owner and a positive atmosphere.
