I loved to workout here, but came to a point in my life where I couldn't afford it anymore. After…read morebeing a member for almost a year and a half, you would think some grace would be offered at cancellation, considering the amount of money I have poured into this institution, however, HOTWORX makes it so difficult to cancel. instead of being able to outright cancel, you either have to pay for 2 months up front, or a $99 cancellation fee. All I am saying, is if you are considering getting a membership here, think carefully about your choice. Things happen. Life happens. And HOTWORX does not care about you or your financial situation, all you are is money to them. I will add that the one in Madison seems to be more sensitive to people, and their situations. Having been a member of both locations, Madison treats you like family, as opposed to money.

Although I have two different gym memberships, it never covers all of the places I end up. For this reason, I could tell stories of some of the worst places I have stumbled upon, but I will sum it up with there has been a time or two I have walked out of places thinking I may need to go and get a tetanus shot or should have worn a CDC suit. I visit Jackson at least once or twice a year and have tried various gyms, but they have all fallen short of meeting the needs of my routine and expectations compared to what they charge a visit to workout. To paraphrase, there are places I have walked out of and my hands were black from filth! Driving, I saw Starke off the freeway and stopped in to see what their equipment setup and fees were for someone from out of town. For only being 8 months old, it is filled with all new equipment, but you could see that the management took ownership in keeping it organized, clean and friendly. I really appreciated that they worked out a rate for me based on the fact that I am from out of town and were welcoming along the way. The equipment and facilities are great! There is a lot of attention to detail and great separation of space depending up what you want to focus on in your routine. The men's locker room was clean and professionally appointed. They have a kids area and plenty of parking. It is great to know that I have a place like this to come back to when I am in town.

This gym is quite old, and process of purchasing new equipment after extensive use is quite slow…read more For instance, it took months to fix a leak in the ceiling and the mats were not raised to dry, which is especially concerning given that the gym caters to the older senior population. Some of the more fit members can be somewhat demanding when using machines. wanting to use them immediately or taking multiple machines to compete a circuit without collaboration with others, which can be frustrating in a crowned gym. Or when the gym is empty and you are in a small corner. Why do you have to use the gym equipment or move your weight next to me. Speaking of cost. It is important to note that this is a yearly processing fee 49.99 in addition to the cost of your gym membership. Since this location only offers one class, the members are able to use other club 4 to utilize classes and saunas. While I initially thought I would use them, I found them to be further away and had a parking issues. I believe that it is not advisable to pay a higher membership fee when the equipment is not fully utilized. When cancelling your membership you must give 30 days notice So if you are a few days into the next month you will have two months to pay. I cancelled in March and the cancellation will take place n June.) I would have liked to have a reminder, I was told when I call to ask them about the fee, that it would be impossible for them to contact everyone. But I can get daily text reminders about promotions via text and email. Looking for a better fit.

When I came back and realized it was no longer there, I asked the employees if they had trashed it. An older employee stated that she did she was "cleaning up." Frustrated as I had been in the gym well over an hour with my water as well as there nearly every day for 4 months with the same bottle, I asked how much their bottles of water were since I now needed another. They said they had already shut the system down and refused to sell me one. After admitting to trashing mine 5 seconds earlier, you would think they would offer me a replacement bottle if not for free at least for purchase but no they refused and the older employee showed zero remorse etc for doing so. I like club4 and I prefer it over the other chains in the area that I'm aware of but when everything around is closed and you throw away my water because I left it in an open gym with cold water for literally less than 60 seconds and then refuse to even sell me a replacement. That is poor customer service. Maybe they need to close earlier or hire better employees. I will say that the younger employee was nicer and apologized even though she was not at fault, but it did not change the reality of the situation.
