The staff is very nice and knowledgeable if you have any injuries that need modifications. Make sure you sign up for class beforehand so they can plan the workout accordingly. You'll want water and a towel!

I went with a friend to try FLEXCity for free. I had never done this type of workout, so I wasn't…read moresure what to expect. FLEXCity specializes in interval-based fitness training, incorporating strength training, cardio, and flexibility into each class. Every class is different, but in the class I went to, we did spinning, running on a treadmill, floor-based strength exercises and TRX. You are constantly moving and rotating to different exercises - you never do any one exercise for more than about 3-5 minutes. The instructor, Cora, was awesome at keeping everyone on track and focused on each activity. She was really helpful and even showed me around the machines before class so I knew what to expect. Overall, I had way more fun than I was expecting but I was definitely incredibly sore for several days after! It's a unique and fun way to get in a workout! Note, the Grand Rapids location has a large parking lot in back but they like you to use the front entrance. Get there 10 minutes before your first class so the instructor can show you around and don't forget a towel... you're gonna sweat.

Facility itself is fine, with the most reasonable monthly payments and free weights available in…read moretown. Enjoyed lifting until changing gyms. Upon leaving, gave 30 day notice two days before monthly payment. Owner who helped did not complete a cancellation form, leaving no documentation until calling about $25 yearly equipment fee that was applied after I had cancelled membership. Unclear if they will try and charge an additional month on top of the final month for their 30-day notice joke, but possible considering how badly the bag was fumbled. Just nickle-and-diming while not following through with requests in a timely manner to squeeze any additional money during the process leaves a horrible impression. Would have gone back in the future for free weight exercises and heavier weights if not for how poorly this was handled.

I love that the gym is full of everyday normal people just trying to get into shape and have fun - no intimidating muscle heads here! Coaches are all great at helping you find the best workout that fits your fitness level - and challenging you to go for it when they know you can do it! Community at CFGR is the best - my kids love joining me to hang out at the gym on the weekends - very family friendly and the people at the gym are just good people! No quiet classes here - too many people shouting encouragement during class! Every chance I get I bring friends to the gym - and they always love it!

Tiffany texted me as soon as I filled in an online request and said I come in at 7am. There were only 4 of us in the class and I loved the workout! It's a small gym that is setup with weights, TRX, medicine balls, etc. She put together an awesome workout for us that took about 50 or so minutes and involved some equipment and timing us on each set of exercises we did. We ended up doing 4 stations, and 3 sets of each. Tiffany was super nice as was everyone else in the class. I would highly recommend checking this place out!

Everyone that participates is supportive, uplifting and you feel the team spirit and comradery. We help each other and cheer each other on! High 5's and good job for everyone at the end of class. I have been a member at FSP since April 2014, I have more energy and feel great. When I started I could only do 2 or 3 push ups. Now I can do 20+ with good form!

Great gym! I don't work out often and I wouldn't call myself athletic (see my food reviews), but I…read morelove this place! I get a full body workout in 45 minutes in a group setting with the help of a trainer and tv monitors! It's clean, organized, judgement free and fun! So, I search Facebook events regularly for new *free* activities. One day, 2 summers ago, I came across an event for the F45 Grand Rapids grand opening. I'd never heard of this F45 thing before so I did some googling and found out that it's a workout concept originating from Australia and this would be the first franchise opening within a 3 hours' drive from us. My sisters and I decided to check it out and that Saturday morning, we got to the strip on 28th street where Michaels craft store used to be. The building was just being set up with mats, tv monitors and equipment - basic floor, walls and ceiling. We ran through several stations outdoors using free weights, ropes and yoga mats. Throughout the whole workout, trainers were encouraging us with, 'Nice work!', high fives and occasionally helping us modify lifts to target the correct muscle group. It was so much fun and by the end, I made up my mind to sign up for the 2 weeks of free, unlimited classes! Since that summer, I've been going to classes randomly with my friend Nicole who goes daily. They have a 20 class pass for $300. It's steep compared to gyms that offer memberships, but I have more of an incentive to actually attend these group workouts than I do if I were to hit the gym alone. Now that the place is established, they offer multiple classes from 530a-7p, 2 clean bathrooms, cubbies to stash your coats/keys, security cameras, and a welcoming environment. I've found that the Saturday morning classes fit my schedule the best and they offer 3 classes before 11am! It's such a great way to start my weekend and gives me time to recover before the work week begins again. I'm always sore after but it's a great feeling of accomplishment after I complete 2 rounds of 27 stations of heart pounding and sweat dripping workouts! Thanks Holly, Sam, Rusty and Ashley - you guys are awesome!

I LOVE THE LOADING DOCK!…read more Zach has build an amazing gym community in Grand Rapids. Classes are a bit pricy but I won't mind paying because of the energy and attention you receive from the coaches here. Class are CrossFit inspired in the movements and structure, but they are not a CrossFit gym. Every movement is coached on so even if you're new to working out, the class is accessible because modifications are given. They also recently started a new class here as well: sweat 30. That's a class designed for people who want to get in a beginner friendly work out in under an hour.

10 out of 10 would recommend…read more I would recommend this gym no matter your skillset/experience or goals. If you are working on gaining strength, losing weight, maintaining or just want to remain mobile, there is a spot for you. I should also mention that TLD has the resources to support injuries as well. The facilities are always clean, well organized and there is plenty of free parking around the building. The owner and coaches put a lot of thought into their class structure. You are never fighting for weights or space to complete your workout. One of my favorite things about the gym is their consistency. I have been a member of a few gyms that offer group classes and the type of workout you receive is dependent on what time you go and the coach. At TLD, while the classes change daily, the workout for that day is the same. So if you go in the morning or evening you will receive the same workout. Also, even though their services are already exemplary, TLD is always looking for ways to improve and asks for feedback from its members. And last by certainty not least are the people. Being a bit of an introvert, I am still surprised by how welcoming & supportive not only the coaches are but the other members. I have found a home that I never knew I needed.
