It is a nice place to lift weights and shoot some hoops. It's mostly older, polite, quiet people…read more Polite staff that minds it's business. Used to have a great indoor pool but it has been broken for some time and will remain so for another year I think. The only problem is that they often keep the weight rooms and gymnaisum extremely hot. Not only is it a waste of tax dollars, it is very uncomfortable. Otherwise I'd give it five stars for sure.

Stopped in here during vacation and got a day pass for $10. This is a no frills bodybuilder gym…read moremeant for serious athletes. Lots of average joes there too, but mostly a bunch of gym rat types. This is not a sauna and spa gym. This is a weights, chalk, squat rack and Dumbbells that go up much higher than I can lift (120+). I am a physique competitor so I enjoy the atmosphere, but it is definitely not for everyone and those who prefer a more relaxed comfortable gym will probably not feel quite at home though everyone is very friendly. Hope you like heavy metal hardcore music like korn, godsmack, disturbed, chevelle, alien ant farm, saliva because that is what will be playing during your workout. It wasn't too loud though so didn't mind. Even through I prefer EDM to workout. My friend Jimmy felt it was a pretty hardcore gym and while it wasn't exactly his cup of tea he had a good workout. They have a nice supplement cooler as well with protein, pre workouts, and other supplements. Prices are fair $3-4 for a protein drink, $4 for a pre workout, $2 power bars etc. It was pretty empty in there, it was a bit hot though -- fan cooled on a hot Virginia day is bound to make you sweat. They did have air conditioning though but it was definitely not on full blast. In summary: great no frills gym for serious lifters, and guys who want the "muscle" vibe. I did see on the wall an ad for Zumba and it looked like there was a group exercise studio in the back. So some fit moms may like it here too.

I have attempted to reach the owners Evan and Rob for several months now and have been completely stonewalled. In fact the owners have never once reached back to me, even after I've contacted corporate to have their assistance in contacting this gym. I have been stonewalled for months. This establishment continues to bill me, when I have not set foot in the gym for over half a year due to COVID. I no longer even live in Virginia! They have failed to provide me a copy of my contract upon request.

Okay, I thought I was going to hate it here. I go to gyms across the country because of my job so I…read morefeel pretty confident saying that this is one of the best places I've ever gone to. The gym is HUGE and has a ton of equipment with areas for every lifting style (Olympic, CrossFit, and bodybuilding). It is pretty overwhelming at first but the layout is well thought out and functional so you can find what you want pretty quickly. Huge perk: You can access the gym 24/7. Even though I've been lifting for a long time, I initially felt very intimidated by all the obviously fit people there. Let me tell you, I have not had any bad experiences! In the contract, there's a line specifically banning a**hole behavior. Haha If you are in Norfolk and need a clean, well equipped, safe gym to go to, look no further!!

First, let me say that I have not actually used this gym yet, but I had such a positive…read moreintroduction and sign-up experience I just had to leave this comment. My Medigap supplement policy offers a free gym membership and this AF location is about a mile from my house, so I decided to give them a shot. I was greeted by the manager, Ali, who was just as personable and professional as she could be. The registration process was straightforward and Ali answered all my questions. She then gave me a tour of the gym which was larger than I expected, nicely organized, and very clean. At my age, I will probably be focused mostly on cardio (treadmill and cycle), but the gym was well equipped with various machines and free weights. There were also several bathrooms, including some with showers. As I left, I was given my key fob for member access 24/7. If using this gym is anything like my initial impression, it will more than meet my expectations.

Cannot say enough good about this place! I have primarily worked with Emma, and training with her…read morehas been an incredible experience. She's thorough, knowledgeable, and precise in her delivery of both programming and feedback. She provides encouragement where appropriate and maintains a healthy approach to steady incremental improvement. The programing she compiled has been very helpful in meeting my specific training goals, and the collaborative nature of it has felt like a breath of fresh air. On occasion I've worked with some of the other trainers, and they all exhibit the same high degree of professionalism and competence. The only thing I wish was a little different pertains to scheduling. Training sessions are 45 minutes which can feel a little tight depending on the day. And while I do also appreciate their interpersonal and manual methods for schedule changes, the convenience of selecting time slots off an app or website is sometimes hard to beat. That being said, they have always been reasonably accommodating to changes when there is an opening, and their approach also helps keep me more consistent, so I can appreciate that the tradeoffs have their merits. On a separate note, coming from another gym with group fitness classes, the pricing may feel a little steep, but for the level of tailored care and training, I've found them to be competitively priced with similar programs in other cities and a good value proposition. Their facilities are also kept in pristine condition with equipment in excellent working order. If you're searching for a wholistic approach to improving your fitness, look no further!

I'm not getting any younger lol and wanted to enjoy my retirement and be around to see my grandchildren grow up. I immediately felt at ease and welcome there. The one on one personal training in private rooms is a perfect fit for me. I train with Jaron, and I cannot say enough good things about him. He is thoughtful with my training program, adjusting as needed to suit my needs and goals while keeping it challenging. I am amazed at the progress I have made in just 4 months and look forward to future accomplishments. Cheers to many more healthy years!
