Walking into a great gym isn't just about the equipment--it's about the feeling you get the moment…read moreyou step inside, and this place absolutely delivers on that. From day one, what stood out the most wasn't just the machines or the layout, but the people. The staff here truly set the tone for everything, and they do an incredible job creating an environment that feels welcoming, supportive, and full of positive energy. The team is consistently friendly and approachable. Whether you're brand new and figuring things out or someone who's been training for years, they treat everyone with the same level of respect and attention. You never feel judged or out of place. If you have a question about a machine, need help with form, or just want a quick tip, they're always ready to help--and they do it with genuine enthusiasm, not like it's a chore. One thing that really stands out is how attentive and proactive the staff are. They're not just standing around--they're engaged, making sure the gym stays clean, organized, and running smoothly. Equipment is well-maintained, weights are re-racked, and everything feels taken care of. That level of detail makes a huge difference in the overall experience. The energy in this gym is on another level. It's the kind of place that motivates you the second you walk in. There's a strong, positive vibe that pushes you to do better, train harder, and stay consistent. You see people focused, working toward their goals, but also encouraging each other--it creates a powerful sense of community. Whether it's a busy peak hour or a quieter time of day, that good energy is always there. Another thing worth mentioning is how inclusive the environment feels. It doesn't matter your fitness level--everyone belongs here. Beginners feel comfortable starting their journey, and experienced lifters still get everything they need for a serious workout. That balance is hard to find, but this gym manages to do it effortlessly. Overall, this is more than just a place to work out--it's a place you actually look forward to going to. Between the friendly and helpful staff, the clean and well-maintained space, and the consistently great energy, it creates an experience that keeps you coming back. If you're looking for a gym where you feel supported, motivated, and welcomed every single time, this is definitely the spot.

I started my membership with 24 Hour Fitness since around Halloween last year and have been…read morefrequenting this location since it's super nearby to my home, when they were running a good promotion, and overall my experience has been mixed but mostly decent. First, keep in mind that it's no longer actually open 24 hours like it was pre-COVID -- they're currently closed from 11pm to 5am (all week except for holidays). Regardless, the hours are still pretty generous and workable for most schedules. One thing I really like about this location is the variety: There are plenty of workout options and a good range of equipment. The layout is easy to navigate, with strength training on the left and cardio on the right when you walk in. They also have a lot of amenities: a small shop in front for protein shakes and supplements, locker rooms with showers, a basketball court, sauna, steam room, pool, and hot tub. They also offer classes and personal training. I'm an introvert, so I appreciated being able to sign up online without needing to sit down and meet with a staff member. The general gym culture here is also a plus -- most people are respectful and keep to themselves, which makes it easy to focus on your workout. Staff, when present, are friendly enough, though the front desk is not always staffed and entry feels a bit lax since you mostly just scan to check in and walk in. A positive for me has been the yoga classes with Cheryl -- they've helped my body tremendously. I've noticed fewer aches and a big improvement in flexibility since attending regularly. The main reason for my 3-star rating is maintenance and cleanliness. Equipment upkeep can be inconsistent. I've had multiple workouts where I had to try several ellipticals or StairMasters before finding one that actually worked -- screens not turning on, controls not responding, or parts missing or worn. Cleanliness can also be hit or miss, with occasional trash left on the floors. Overall, it's a solid gym with great amenities and class offerings, but better equipment maintenance and more consistent cleaning would really improve the experience.

Typical Budget Gym Experience…read more Location & Safety: At first glance, the location seems decent, but once you park and look around, the issues become obvious. There's a liquor store next door that attracts questionable activity, and there are frequently homeless individuals in and around the parking lot. On one occasion, I parked and found two people hiding behind a car using drugs and asking me for money. I reported this to the 24 Hour Fitness staff, but they said there was nothing they could do. That response was frustrating--drug use directly outside the entrance should be addressed, and staff could at least contact the non-emergency line for assistance. The lack of concern from management was especially disappointing. Cleanliness & Maintenance: The facility is poorly maintained. Trash often sits on the floor for days, and the bathrooms are about as clean as a gas station. The overall upkeep of the gym feels neglected. Pool & Health Concerns: Avoid the pools entirely. They were closed for weeks due to contaminated water, and the health department shut down all swimming. This points to serious lapses in routine maintenance and care. Equipment: Machines break down frequently, which is somewhat expected at a budget gym. However, the repair turnaround is unacceptable--often taking over a month to fix equipment. Overall Impression: I mainly use the weights and treadmill, which is the only reason I continue going. That said, if I were a young woman, I would not feel safe in the parking lot after dark. The area is filled with people loitering, selling drugs, and hanging around the nearby liquor store. Overall, you get what you pay for--but the lack of cleanliness, safety concerns, and poor management response make this gym hard to recommend.

So early last year I decided to make the jump from Planet Fitness to In-Shape Fitness in Natomas.I…read morewas ok with being a member at Planet Fitness but I reached a point where the amenities it was missing and that In-Shape offered were too much to ignore-so I made the switch and joined In-Shape. In-Shape is a pretty good gym-have many amenities,many classes,a lot of new equipment that I've seen them replace older machines with,this particular location is a multiple floor building and each floor has different areas for weights both free weights and machine weights.I would also say it never feels too overly crowded unless you get very unlucky and get there at the exact perfect moment.They have a dry sauna area and a steam sauna area-I heard but can't verify there is also a woman's only dry sauna in their locker room.There is also a full sized basketball court and racquet ball courts.They also have a rock climbing wall,they have multiple swimming pools,they have 2 massage chairs which are available for members to use.They have so many cardio machines-just about all types are available,from bikes to stair climbers to treadmills and others that I'm not so sure what they are called. All that being said,what I truly wanted to talk about was my favorite feature of this gym and that is the offerings of Pilates classes they have at this gym.They offer Pilates classes on Monday and Thursday evenings as well as 2 classes on Saturday mornings,which means a member could take up to 4 hours of Pilates a week if they were so inclined.This is part of your monthly membership-it's really great-not sure many other In-Shape locations offer so many Pilates classes at this time. On a personal note I would like to highlight one of the Pilates instructors Severine,she currently teaches the Monday and Thursday evening Pilates classes and let me just say she is wonderful.As a person who never took a Pilates class,I ended up signing up for her class after the encouragement of my wife who has taken her class for quite some time.I did so reluctantly thinking that as a 52 year old man, who doesn't know a thing about Pilates,it was going to be a horrifying experience.It was anything but,and that is all due to the wonderful instructor Severine.She went out of her way to make me,along with everyone else in the class feel so welcome,always offers lots of words of encouragement and plenty of tips to make the Pilates experience a better one.Her classes are always so fun,she generally goes out of her ways to make sure she knows the name of every single person who takes her class and always has a funny story to share with the class to make sure we dont get lost in the moment.She is the sole reason I have stuck to Pilates this long and the main reason I love being a member of this gym-she is a true asset to this location. In closing,if your in the market for a new gym experience I would without hesitation give this In-Shape location a shot-I feel you won't regret it.

At this point, I'd honestly be willing to bring my own net to get on someone's shoulders to install it. I just want to see the court fully usable again. Aside from this issue, I want to say that all of the employees have been very respectful, friendly, and welcoming, which I really appreciate.

The fact that I can take a class at any time is extremely convenient. You book your class through the app and it does show you if someone else is already booked. Three people can fit into each sauna so you could potentially get the sauna to yourself. I think most people don't book if they see someone is already in a sauna. I've always been by myself which is nice. The place is always super clean. I've never had any sound, light or heat issues with any of the saunas. The small free weight area is always clean and organized. The place isn't always staffed but when it is the workers have always been really friendly. It's $79 a month for me but my membership only allows me to workout at this location. I didn't opt into the other one because this is the most convenient for me. Overall this place has what I need and I'll continue to go here for my workouts!

I've been going to this gym for some time now and i've never experienced discrimination before. I…read morescan in and head to a machine and before I even start, an employee comes up to me and asks me to leave due to my choice of footwear. Admittedly, I was wearing crocs and as a working professional myself, I understand policies are enforced due to liability. I walked to my friend to let him know that I was asked to leave. On my way out, I noticed other gym members were also wearing open toed shoes. My friend also scanned the room and spotted at least FOUR different people with open toed shoes (crocs, birks, and even beach flip flops!!!) When I brought this to her attention, she got frustrated and dismissed me, saying "I already asked you to leave." I left after that. When my friend was leaving, he also brought to her attention there were other members violating clothing policy. She then immediately escalated by threatening to call security instead of trying to listen to our concerns. My questions are: why didn't she care about the other members violating policy that were already working out? Why was she so adamant to kick specifically, me out, but when made aware of other violators, she stayed seated at the front, talking with other employees? Why is there no follow up patrol for other violators, who already had the time to work out? Why was she selective on who to kick out? I can only come to the conclusion this was a form of targeting. I am a smaller woman, and I felt discriminated and bullied. Regarding enforcing the policy to other violators, at best she seemed indifferent and at worst intimidated by the larger individuals. Attached is the PF non-discrimination policy. If non-discrimination is one of PF core values, I am severely disappointed and hurt :( PF can view the cameras and verify my statements. I have had this yelp account 5+ years and i've never had such a horrible experience with an employee/business.
