Because I don't have healthcare this year, I decided to get back into the gym to work on becoming strong again, to lower my blood pressure, and to help with my stress management. When I signed up for my gym membership, Coach Shaw's name was recommended, and I reached out to him to get started. It's been one of the best decisions I've made in recent years. Coach Shaw has gone above and beyond from the very beginning. He helped me establish my goals (which are more about function and health markers); set me up with a meal plan and a training regiment. not only that, but he requires weekly check-ins to go over sleep, water intake, general movement outside of the gym, digestion, supplements, etc. I wanted a trainer who would take a holistic approach, and Coach Shaw embodies that!! It's been a month and I'm feeling so much stronger, my blood pressure is down, my clothes are fitting better, I'm sleeping better. I've been able too prep all my meals and hit all my workouts. Worth his weight in gold, genuinely!

When you are under his guidance, he is not just your personal trainer- he will tailor a nutritional plan to fill your needs, he will celebrate all of your wins and he is not afraid to call you out when you don't meet your potential. My attitude towards my physical health has changed completely under his guidance. In the almost 6 months that we have worked together, I have lost inches where I wanted to and have gained so much strength and endurance. If you are willing to put in the work and listen to his suggestions Lamar will help you reach all of YOUR goals. That's actually one of the first things that impressed me about his training style- he takes the time to listen to what you'd like to accomplish and will use all of his knowledge to propel you forward. Before every session he will take a moment to check in and see how you are feeling that day and will adjust your training accordingly. When you are working, he will adjust your form to make sure no movement is wasted. Oh and did I mention that he never stops his education? This is not some magic quick fix program but rather he will show you how to make lifestyle changes so you can maintain a healthier version of yourself. I cannot recommend his services enough. When you are ready to make real change and commit to yourself come find Lamar. You won't regret it.

The equipment and gym itself is okay, some machines are broken and being fixed all the time but can be worked around. The downfall comes to amenities. My first morning workout after joining I find out that they have no towels ( sweat/showers ) I thought that was a bit odd but okay, I started bringing my own towel. During the entire winter of 2024 they had no hot water . It took months and months for them to repair the hot water. Taking an ice cold shower when it's 30 degrees outside SUCKS . Then there's cancellation. I tried to cancel for so long and I got the run around so many times that I ended up just blocking them on my card. After all this they tried to send me a collections letter as well. That will not be paid. As I have joined another gym, with a full size pool, brand new and nice amenities for less than 50 dollars a month and you can cancel ANYTIME. Highly do not recommend this place, there are so many other competitive gym options to go to.

I've been to four in the last week and a half, and looking forward to my classes scheduled! I've done Zumba classes and spin classes (Flywheel), but nothing compares! The two instructors I've taken classes with are amazing. Mike, the head coach is the BEST! I try to get all of my classes with him but would definitely give the others a chance as I'm sure they're all wonderful. It's very much so like a community and every single person that works there has been genuinely kind & helpful. They obviously tried to sell me a membership, but, duh. They weren't pushy about it and were super knowledgeable and helpful when it came to the options! Well, of course I gave in & glad I did! The thing I love the most is how the classes work. It's cardio, rowing, and lifting/floor intervals. You burn so many calories in the hour long class and it's actually fun. The music is always on point. I highly recommend Orangetheory, at least give it a try!

I began searching the internet for hitting tips and fielding techniques and drills, spending hours reading different articles and becoming frustrated over some conflicting information I was finding. Luckily I was saved! My wife messaged me and said someone from work told her about this place and I went to check it out and I was stunned. I dove into their blog on baseballrebellion.com and started reading all of their various articles and their approach to hitting and fielding. It all really made sense. They take a scientific approach to baseball mechanics and focus on teaching kids the correct habits from the get go in order for them to be successful in the future as well as the present. They use high speed cameras to analyze your child's swing and fielding, pitching or catching habits. They also have summer camps that focus on specific areas as well as a fully loaded gym and indoor batting cages so that you or your child can hone their skills all year long. I highly recommend this facility to anyone looking to improve their baseball skills!

EDIT 6/21/25: I see a reply from Planet Fitness asking me to reach out to Planet Fitness…read moremanagement, without actually telling me HOW to reach out to management. I did already use the app to send in a question but I've seen no acknowledgment and no reply. I've only been a member here about a month. They don't seem to enforce their own policies about sharing equipment, and cellphone use while using equipment. I work in customer service jobs. So I've dealt with upset people, but not usually at the gym. I picked Planet Fitness because they seem to be a gym for ordinary people, not steroid users. Today I went to use a machine. I could see it was occupied but the member was sitting on the machine with his phone. I asked if I could work in like I do at any gym. He said he had 5 more sets to do. So I waited about 2 ft away. The other member asked what I was doing. I tried to explain to him I was just waiting for the machine. He got very upset and kept telling me to "get out of his space and go away". He kept yelling as I tried to explain I was waiting there because it was the last machine I needed. At first I thought he might have said just five more reps (quick). But if so, why would he care if I just waited a few minutes. And if it was five sets he really should have shared the machine. He never said "Hey would you mind standing behind me." He just wanted me away and thought he had the right to tell me what to do. This while yelling that asking him to share the machine was the same as telling him how and where to workout. I was quite surprised so I went to talk to a staff member to 1) ask about the right thing to do and 2) see if there was another place to work out. The staff member went back to that member still working out. They talked to them but I don't know what they said. Instead of talking to them about sharing equipment, they seemed to prefer to deescalate the situation by moving me to another area. That wasn't helpful because the only other machine was also in use. Should I just wander around the building while I'm waiting to use a machine? I notice a lot of folks either sitting on the machine during their entire set or staring at their phones while resting despite a sign at the front door asking members to not do that. I honestly don't feel comfortable at this place if this is how they fail to address bad behavior by members.

Cambridge is one of Raleigh's premiere health and wellness facilities in the area…read more I had the opportunity to join a member here as their guest. I really enjoyed the elliptical, leg press, leg curl, Ab and bicep curl machines here. At the time I visited the space was not crowded which is greatly appreciated. This allowed me to freely use whatever I needed without the crowds and waits. I love this for me in any gym. The amenities are great. The indoor pool, sauna and hot tub are a really nice touch here. I look forward to returning to try out some of these options. As far as the price point it's up there in price in comparison to my Y membership. I think for the peacefulness and quality of equipment in this space - it may be well worth it if it's meet one's expectations. My only point out here was some cardio machines could use some dusting. They could also use some new towels here or some fabric softener would help soften the towels. I recommend bringing your own towels.
