The members and number of trainers have grown immensely from when I started but the customer service is still the same. Everyone from the owners to the trainers to the members are great.... Down to earth, encouraging, etc. These are group workouts that push you but everyone does it at their own level so it works. I unfortunately had to leave the gym due to factors beyond my control but after I get resituated and back on a regular schedule I will be calling Gina to reinstate me at PKB. Not sure what I miss more, the workouts or the people/trainers/owners.

I have been here several times. Like everyone, 2018 is about new goals. I have changed up my…read morework out routine from traditional weight lifting to Pittsburgh Kettlebell and Performance. There is nothing wrong with traditional weight lifting. I just fell in a rut and did the same exercises at the same times during the week. PKP really mixes it up. I have been to 4 classes and exposed to 3 different instructors. The workouts are different and more circuit consistency. The participants are super helpful for newbs like me. The trainers are very conscientious to ensure you do not hurt yourself. They make sure your form is on point and urge you to use lighter weights. The classes are well organized (usually split into groups and the groups are doing different exercises). Overall - it is a high recommend. I am still not able to do everything the veterans do, but I am getting better each day. Tip - I learned from a veteran - wear sandles / flip flops and put your shoes on once you are inside. The entire floor is matted so they ask you not to have a different pair for inside so you do not track water, salt, dirt, etc... Overall: Atmosphere - Fun, Busy, the hour goes fast Cost - surprisingly very affordable. This would be ideal to augment a gym. Cheaper than a personal trainer and you get huge benefits Routines - very different - I don't think I have done the same thing once in the past 2 weeks of going.

Pittsburgh FIT is such a welcoming environment for people at any skill level. I decided to join a…read more6-week challenge because I needed an extra kick in the butt to get motivated after some weight gain. I've since joined as a member. There's a variety of class times to choose from, from early in the morning to late into the evening. The 9:30 a.m. class is my normal class. The workouts are always a fun challenge and there's always different. They combine cardio, weight training and body resistance exercises, and everything wraps up within an hour. Trainers always go over all of the movements, usually with pep and a smile, and will correct you to ensure you have the best form. In the past, I've been a part of big box gyms where you lift and use machines at will. While they're cheap, I made excuses not to go because it was always the same motions. But Pittsburgh FIT has challenged me athletically for the first time in years. There's always the push of trying a little more if you can, but adjusting any movements so things are best for you, too. I love weight lifting, so I usually go heavier for those parts of the workouts, but I have a jenky ankle after a bad sprain last year, so I opt out of box jumps and things that are tough on those joints for something a little less straining. All in all, it's a great place where everyone there wants to see you succeed. Showing up is the first step.

I never thought I could love a gym, but Tedesco has made me love and even look forward to looking…read moreout. For months I saw the Facebook posts for Tedesco but was afraid to try it. Gyms can be intimidating and full of body shame if you don't fit a certain standard. Tedesco is none of those things. The first time I walked in for a 5 am boot camp class I was greeted with enthusiasm. It has been over ten years since I've done anything like it, so I was nervous and also realistic about my abilities. The coach demonstrated every activity and also worked with me through modifications where I needed them. What was also refreshing was seeing all sorts of body types in the class. This is definitely a place that welcomes and embraces everyone who walks in the door. They offer fitness boot camp, kickboxing and strength boot camp classes along with open gym time. I've attended all of them and really enjoyed every one. What's great is that they are something different every day. Each day focuses on a different muscle but the order and which activity changes. They also regularly host challenges with different themes. For example, I'm currently in the "Little Black Dress" challenge where in addition to the workouts, we get meal plans and nutrition consults. You can also just come to the gym to do your own workout. I never thought I'd be someone who looked forward to 5 am workouts, but Tedesco converted me. This place is amazing, so if you are out east and looking for a gym, definitely check them out. You won't regret it.

I've been a member of this club, Shape Training, East Pittsburgh (previously Keystone Fitness) for…read more10 years. Shape Training took over two years ago and I'm sorry to say it has gone downhill since. The new focus is personal training and if you don't partake of it, you are simply forgotten and not valued as a customer. When the changeover started and people started complaining I was actually a cheerleader for the new management. I kept telling people I'm willing to give them an opportunity to turn things around. Well, we just finished our 2nd summer without A/C. It was registering 83 degrees inside every day. We were appeased by the placement of 4 fans, which did nothing except blow around hot air. Let me clarify, I'm not adverse to sweating, I've done inferno classes, kickboxing among others in the past, but this was unbearable. For the past two years, we have been told that they are "working" on the air conditioning. With focus being on personal training, new equipment was purchased but unfortunately it didn't meet the needs of the existing customers. The weight machines are nice but you need to change the weights and spend much time looking around the gym for the right sizes. There are only 2 ellipticals; these are in high demand every day and are showing signs of wear. The motorized treadmills were replaced by manual treadmills. After many people complained, 3 motorized treadmills were purchased. The replacement machines didn't happen immediately; it took complaint after complaint over several months. The equipment is not being maintained. One rowing machine has had wires hanging from it since February. It was brought to management's attention in February and as of October, the wires are still hanging. One of the two stationary bikes is making an atrocious noise and was reported back in February. Other pieces of equipment are wearing down. I know some pieces may be old, but you need to study your demographic and usage of the equipment on a continuous basis to keep ALL your customers happy. They have a nice track that I used every day. Walking gave me an opportunity to look around the floor. I saw a lifesaver in the same spot all summer. Unfortunately the gym is not kept clean. For me, the final straw was when there were about 15 people in the gym and then a person came for training. The trainer blasted the music so loud, it actually hurt my ears. I asked an employee if they could just lower the music a bit, she was a foot away from me and had to lean in to ask me to repeat my question. I was told "no", they're training. I'm not adverse to music providing a beat while working out, but ruining ear drums is another issue. I left at that point for the last time. I understand the business end is to make money, but you can't simply focus on one portion and believe that you are meeting everyone's needs. Many people have left Shape Training in the past two years to join other gyms and feel valued as a customer. After desperately trying to keep a positive outlook for the past two years, I have finally joined the ranks and left.

I think "joining a gym" sounds so intimidating sometimes, and I didn't want to be a "meat head" so…read moreI was more inclined to workout on my own.....well I didn't workout on my own, therefore I wasn't hitting my goal - living and loving my life.... I was an athlete my entire since I was 4....after ending my college career, I found myself lost. I missed structure, routine and just the atmosphere of everyone after the same thing, to be the best they can be and pushing each other to do the same....I started working with trainers and taking classes at SHAPE about 5-6 years ago, and when we moved back to Greensburg, I just decided not to make the drive anymore. WORST DECISION I HAVE EVER MADE. About a month ago I took the leap and decided to go in for a consult (Free by the way, with no pressure following) but I met with Martin Heban, who asked me what my goals where, and explained step by step how I can get there, and how SHAPE could support me. Sometimes all it requires to reach your goal, is to take that first step, and I am soooooo happy I did! I now workout there 3-4 days a week, primarily in their classes and obviously take advantage of all of their boot camps and free boxing classes! The support and camaraderie at SHAPE is like nothing you've ever experienced. Whether you have never worked out in your life, or if you are an active athlete, wanting to take your skills and ability to the next level....you will not be disappointed! I'll see you at SHAPE!

Gym started off good, the manager Heather is wonderful. The "coach" Ryan slams and throws weights,…read moreI have personally watched members comment to him about it, he laughs. I watched him 'coach' an elderly woman, put her into the hack squat machine and played on his phone as other gym members rushed over to save her when she failed the lift and not the coach.

Never pay for coaching, in fact avoid going during staffed hours unless you want hit with flying dumbells. Always wipe the equipment down BEFORE you use it. Bring your own scale, there is none.
