The equipment is new but the floor, decor, everything looks dated. The class I went to seemed flat. The instructor just wasn't impressive This doesn't feel like a luxury gym anymore... but it's not basic either.. they still have the aromatherapy scented towels, steam room, shower and a robot massage machine.. but they cannot compete with the new high end gym. But it's easy to get parking at merrick park and it's lovely to walk around the mall. Pricing is too high in my opinion. They shouldn't charge a premium anymore.

It's amazing is an understatement. The luxury vibe is there, you're surrounded by beautiful people…read moreand beautiful scenery. The classes PUSH you and the instructors I've had have been amazing (given personal corrections mid class, inspiring motivation, and great music). The amenities are great (Le Labo products, steam room, robotic massages, etc). And what sold me on it was the fact they were able to scan my body and give me a clear picture to hit my specific health goals for completely FREE. From talking around with the other members, it feels like they think the same as me. We love Equinox and don't plan on leaving anytime soon. For anyone in the Gables area thinking about joining, it's a great investment!

Huge thanks to Diandra L for introducing me to this fabulous gym!…read more In town for a family wedding, I kicked off my Saturday morning with a P.I.T. Conditioning class with Sara. My cousin was my partner in class and there was no lack of motivation as we made our way through 20 stations and got a full body workout including strength and cardio. Sara and Nico were both super welcoming and this gym has an awesome community feel to it where everyone feels welcome. If I lived in the area, I'd definitely be a regular here. Instead, I'll keep it in mind for future visits!

I've been on class pass recently to discover new gyms and routines that get me excited to work out…read moreand let me tell you Legacy is becoming one of my favorites! I have done this workout at their Wynwood studio and also the Little River location so I knew I was in for a challenging but fun workout. The workout format is PIT (Partner interval training) so you rotate around the room with a partner for 20 stations for 2 minutes each. Depending on the exercise you and your partner alternate for reps or time or work together. If you're someone who has anxiety about trying a new gym and having to pair up with someone you don't know - do not worry about this here! The trainer and also everyone in the class are welcoming and friendly so it's a-ok if you are walking in alone. I love the idea of pairing up with someone who's super into the class because it pushes me to lift heavier, try harder and make them proud. I have gone to Nico's 7:10 am class for the last two weeks and then another Saturday class with Andre. They break up the classes into strength, conditioning and performance days to focus on different styles of training, but I have grown to love the set up of this workout. The studio does have some parking spots in front, but there is also plenty of metered parking nearby as well as a garage. Pro-tip - if you go to a class before 9 am, the meters are free. You'll also want to be sure to bring a towel to this workout as the studio does require it. It's def needed because you work up a sweat and don't want to leave your equipment sweaty for your partner or other class participants. The energy and music during the classes with fuel you to an epic calorie burn, that is gaurenteed!

The Biltmore upholds the palatial ambience even in their fitness center. THE BATHROOMS ARE INCREDIBLE!!! Mama always said to judge a place by its bathrooms. There's this beautiful spa music playing when you walk in with a sauna AND a steam room. The bathrooms are so luxurious with full towel services for you. There's a juice & smoothie bar with nutritious food options. They clean the equipment so frequently and everyone who works there is so sweet! From the moment you walk in, it is relaxing, rejuvenating, and revitalizing.

I'm in love with this place…read more I grew up in South Florida and used to train at a place called Porky's. It was loud, compact and intense. The scary type of gym people who don't know any better imagine, Except, there was nothing scary about it. Familiar faces, classical Equipment and the knowledge that you were gonna leave better than when you came. Miami Iron Gym takes me back to that. It's a place where grunting is allowed so long as you retail your weights. There's no link alarm and no texting. You don't workout, you train. No wannaBe drill sergeants shouting Etsy quotes at you while they film themselves. It's beautiful: people lifting. Imagine that. I was in town and didn't want to skip Leg day so I paid the drop in fee and spoke to Mr Juan at the front desk who was great. I made very sure to get my moneys worth in their variety of machines. This place is no frills and looks like the place you go to see some genuine changes in your mind and body.

It was relieving to not see people taking multiple sets of dumbbells and going off into a corner for 30 minutes or people sitting on machines and texting the whole time like at many other gyms. The contrast cold & hot plunge pools are great for recovery. The infrared sauna could be much hotter. I'd suggest putting full sized towels at the entrance to that area in addition to or instead of at the entrance of the locker rooms. My only two gripes with this gym is that every day of the 5 days I came it was way too warm and humid inside even though it was only 75 outside (felt hotter inside - not comfortable), and the music was pumping way too loud so much that I couldn't hear my own music on the treadmills. O and also at least 3 of the ~10 treadmills wobbled like crazy. Overall I'd recommend this gym for the mid 20s to early 50s fit-oriented clientele who likes to be around like minded people. I liked how many choices they had stocked for energy drinks, protein, drinks, and protein bars, and how organized it was. The cleaning crew was continually cleaning and kept the floors so clean that I didn't even feel weird walking around the locker rooms barefoot which I can't remember ever doing. Also the gym is in a great spot to walk over for lunch at some decent restaurants at the Coconut Grove walk / pier or whatever it's called. And the parking was very good each of the 5 days I went. I was able to quickly find even free spots. Shout out to one of the workers Elder for going above and beyond with courteous service and filling me in on happening things to do around town during my visit.

I've been going to this gym for several years now. I get a good workout most of the time, but…read moresometimes the routines can be a little disappointing. Their class times are less convenient than they used to be. They have one class starting at 6:45 and the next one isn't until 8:30. The latter being too early for me, but 8:30 ends pretty late in the morning (and is after free parking ends on the street). There's definitely some instructors I like more than others. I stopped going regularly over a year ago, when my shoulder was bothering me and I found that some classes I would have to modify a whole zone and it was a struggle to get the instructors to suggest other exercises. Because they continue to play their music very loudly, I've taken to wearing earplugs to protect my ears, but then it's hard for me to hear the instructors. Doing a lot of the exercises on the floor hurts my tailbone and forearms (I wish they had yoga mats) and I miss the rowers (and towels!) they used to have. At least one of their bikes is slightly broken and their ellipticals have been broken at times too. They use monitors to show you what routine to do, but I would say 80% of the time something is cut off like the # of reps. Meanwhile other TVS will have nothing on them. I wish they would invest more effort in making it easy to see what exercises you are doing, especially when they have TVs they aren't using. Almost no one seems to use their heart rate monitors anymore. I stopped bringing mine ages ago, because 50% of the time it wouldn't connect to the screen and I rather use my watch, and who wants to be the one or two people up on the screen? What I find most frustrating and what prompted me to update my rating, is they constantly text me with offers that they will not honor. If they say they are for new members, I've just ignored them, even though it would be great if they didn't text me offers that aren't for me at all. Recently they texted me offering a free week to try their new workout version, with no mention of it being for new members only. Throughout the years, I've noticed changes such as added or removed equipment, but never noticed something drastically new, so I wasn't sure if it had been rolled out already or not. As someone who already works out there occasionally, but hadn't been a member in over a year, I thought maybe they were encouraging me to try to come more frequently like I used to, so I asked if there were any catches and they said no, and I accepted the offering, cancelling another class for next week to go to this one instead. The next day they told me they were revoking the free week. When I expressed my frustration that were not honoring the offer, they called me and aggressively made up a bunch of excuses such as that I texted back too late at night for them to know if I qualified (they texted me after closing time themselves and I responded that same hour) and that their system cannot tell if I come on classpass or not, but not taking ownership of that. Ugh. While I'll continue to partake in their workouts while they are on classpass because as I said I mostly get a good workout, this shady communication was another reminder of why I didn't want to be a full time member. There's been times I was charged a no show fee for a class I didn't sign up for (and therefore didn't attend). When I was a member, I was constantly stressed about if I would be able to use all my classes and I stopped looking forward to my workouts. When I did try to cancel or pause my membership, I always felt harassed about it, having to provide a reason, which is annoying. It has to be done 15 days in advance, which if you are new member, it's especially hard to know after two weeks if you want to keep going or not and I've even had them cancel my membership effective immediately even though I had classes left over! Other times they've been more accommodating, and extended my membership when their was a death in the family and I didn't get to use most of my classes. I wish they were more consistent and reliable with their practices and workouts. So while I recommend trying this gym, I do not recommend becoming a member.

Our family is looking to become healthier this year, and we decided to change our lifestyle habits…read more One of these changes was joining a gym. We chose LA Fitness because there are many locations, which gives us more options and flexibility. My daughter and I visited the closest location in Coral Gables, which is located in a mall next to Winn Dixie. The club offers free garage parking with no validation required, which is very convenient. However, it is a little tricky to find the gym from the garage if you are a first-time visitor. The main gym entrance is on the west side of the ground floor facing Winn Dixie. To get to the gym from the garage, you must take the elevators on the west side to the second floor. We eventually found it after some trial and error. The gym is okay, but not great. There are many machines, but several seem to need service. The cardio machines, offices, bathrooms, and smoothie bar are located on the second floor. There are stairs to the third floor, where the weight machines and rooms for group exercise classes are located. The gym serves its purpose, but it is in need of renovation. The staff are nice, and they do try to keep the place clean.
