    This review is for a drop-in to Lift-STL, not a full membership. I dropped into this gym while visiting Saint Louis, and I was very impressed with their facility. The whole place is super clean, well taken care of, and organized. They have a ton of lifting-focused equipment, including multiple squat racks with platforms, barbells, and bumper plates. They also have a lot of machines, including a GHD, an abductor/adductor machine, and lots of isolation machines. They also have a ton of dumbells of various weights. There's a few treadmills, rowers, and ski machines too. All in all, A+ for equipment. The gym definitely had people in it, but it was not overly crowded on a weekday morning, and I had no problems waiting to use equipment. The drop-in process is quick and easy, it's $25 for a day pass. Restrooms are also clean and have lockers (bring your own lock) and showers. I took the train here from Downtown Saint Louis (about 30 minutes), it's just a few steps from a station, and I liked this gym so much I would definitely do that again.

    Lift-STL is the best gym in St. Louis, hands down. The quality is unmatched by any other gym in the area, and it has a great culture!

    Shred415 is by far the most fun workout class I have ever taken! My fiancé and I signed up last…read moreyear in October and we have been coming about 4/5 times a week ever since. Reasons why I love the workout: 1. Treadmills / running are incorporated! I love to run but I hate when I have to chose either weights or running. I love Shred because it keeps both! 2. Minimal thought/ experience required. You don't have to wait for equipment or think about what your next set is going to consist of because they tell you what to do the entire time! Also, if you don't know how to do something- it doesn't matter- because your instructor shows you each move before they expect you to do it. Reason why I love this location specifically: The Instructors & Staff are just the best! I truly feel like I have made some great friends here and that all of the people in this location genuinely care about you. It's so nice that I can pick my classes to go with my favorite instructors or I can take one with someone that's not in my regular "schedule" and I still get the same amazing workout and attention. Overall, the gym is clean, safe, but most importantly fun! 100% would recommend to anyone of any experience level!

    Tried Shred415 for the first time today. Such a cool place, excellent workout, great staff, and…read moresuper energetic instructor! Also, the place is super clean, which is very important to me. Def try a workout here, you may get hooked!!

    I went in for a free consultation only. I'm sure the program works for some people, but it wasn't a…read moregood fit for me at this time. You have to pay $300 up front for the 6 week boot camp. To get your money back, you have to check-in on social media every time you're there, let them use your before and after pictures, post a review on here (FYI - Businesses should not be asking for reviews. It's against Yelp's conflict of interest policy), and lose 25 lbs. Losing 25 lbs is not the same for everyone as far as percentage of body weight. You have to go 3x a week for an hour. It's a one-size-fits-all mentality. I'm looking for something more personalized. It's not just about losing weight, it's about losing inches, gaining muscle and confidence, etc. Jeremy is a no nonsense and direct motivator if that's what you're looking for. I'm not willing to risk the money for something I'm not sure will motivate me. Kickboxing is 2 nights a week. It's a group setting. It seemed very disorganized while I was there, both the class and the space. Very small and crowded space, very claustrophobic. Didn't feel very clean. Mismatch of equipment. Jackets and bags all over the place. Parking is a nightmare. I tried to ask questions, which weren't answered directly, was made to feel my questions were just excuses. Was not impressed with space, staff, or sales pitch.

    To the owners reply, AKA Jeremy, not a "bruised elbow", it was and still is pretty messed up and…read moreinjured. BUTTT, like always, you still don't read or understand anything especially since you're still on the same rant of him not coming in because you think he "pussed out" and you think the male should be in charge (according to the phone call a month ago) so no surprise with your comment and how you don't listen. And thanks, found a better place at Studio Element. Anyone who is looking for someone should GO to STUDIO ELEMENT. It's worth the money to be treated better and get results that will last than treated like crap by some rude "trainer" who has an extremely unhealthy way of making people lose weight. So glad you took our hard earned money for free and you showed us your true colors. If anything came from you stealing our hard earned money it that we got out of your bad business. Also, your contract is still not valid as your address in it isn't even where you work out of (I got the return envelope). Thanks, jack-a...Jeremy! Where do I even start. This place deserves zero stars because of Jeremy. Jeremy will talk down to you, talk over you, does not compromise or get the picture. He does not care for his clients and wants it his way or the highway. He will rip you off. BE CAREFUL. I have his contract posted below. Wednesday, my boyfriend and I decided to go into here for a free consultation. He sat down with us (more like my boyfriend, not us because he would hardly talk to me...big macho man ), got right to the point about how his 6 week training program is and blah blah blah. He said it was $499 a person but if we both come in together it's $399 BUT we have to put 1/3 of the money down today. So my boyfriend said sure he'll put his part down and I'll talk to my parents to see if they'll help me out. My parents said they would help out, but not right away, and so my boyfriend had $236 on him and he went ahead and gave him the money and signed his own contract (I never signed one) which doesn't say a start date. Jeremy said if I decide I don't want to come in and do it, then that money would just be for my boyfriend (1/3 of $499 isn't $236 btw, Jeremy). So we left planning on coming in Monday, June 18th. This weekend I had an incident where I fell on my right elbow (swore I broke it) and went to urgent care the next day and thankfully found out it was severely sprained. I talked to my boyfriend and asked if he'd wait until the following Monday so we could do it together, because we wanted to do this together. We live together, it makes sense to only do it together. I did not want to waste my first week of Jeremy's 6 week program with a hurt arm, only being able to do exercises with every other body part. So this morning (Monday, June 18th) we texted Jeremy telling him the situation and asking if he'd let us start Monday. He basically says a sprained elbow is nothing then calls my boyfriend only to try to force him into coming in and asking him who is in charge me or him (my boyfriend)? My boyfriend kept explaining can we just come in as a couple next Monday or no? And he said we can but my boyfriend would not get his 6 weeks but I would (LOLWHAT) then goes on to say this doesn't excuse my boyfriend, he can still come in today regardless of me (which is true) but my boyfriend kept telling him how he wants to do this with me as a couple, again, TOGETHER. Obviously, Jeremy did not get the picture and only cared about money because here we are, out $236 and in a very uncomfortable situation where my boyfriend and I don't ever want to go back to this guy again because why would I want to workout with a guy who only cares about himself and his money. In all honesty, if I was rich, I'd pay you the money not to go to him. Screenshots of his texts follow
