The best massage I've ever received in my life was in Pattaya, Thailand. 2 tiny old Thai ladies…read moregave me a traditional Thai massage on the floor and played me like Gumby. I swear I was pulled and stretched all directions and at the end of the 2 hours, I was as limp as a ragdoll. The best part was that it was $10 US Dollars. The worst was that I haven't been able to replicate the experience here in the US, until now. I've been alternatively going to a chiropractor ($50 each session) and massage ($60-$80 each session) to relieve my back pain since it can sometimes debilitate me and I can't get out of bed. I also have an inversion table to help manage the pain. The chiro helped with the alignment of my spine, but it would go back in a couple of days because the muscles will pull it back out of alignment. Massage helps but it's just skin deep. What I needed to do was something like yoga but honestly am too out of shape to hold any position longer than 20 secs. I saw an ad for Stretch Zone and signed up for the free trial but was turned off my the $10 fee they wanted to charge to book the appointment, I mean is it free if it costs money? I sat on the offer for months and finally out of desperation one day when I pulled a muscle and couldn't get into my chiro or a masseuse, I booked an appointment. Since they have 2 locations in El Paso and are fairly new, I was able to get in. They also have an app which will tell you what times are available, but more on that later. I walked into the session with pain and I couldn't turn my head to the side because of a crick in my neck, and walked out with sheer relief. First off, everyone who works there is ridiculously nice, and not in a fake salesperson kind of way. They're genuinely happy to be there helping people get relief and achieve their fitness goals. I saw all sorts of people, from older folks trying to maintain their flexibility, to top athletes trying to prevent injuries, to people like me who need a literal push. The girl who did the demo made me feel at ease and they start you on the table with a wedge and only stretch you up to the number 3 (the real sessions use 3, 5, 7). The bed looks like an S & M contraption with straps and buckles, but in reality it works as an extra hand for the therapist. It helps hold you in position while they stretch you, kinda like the 2 Thai ladies, where one would pull me one way while the other pulled the opposite. It works, I tell you, after only one demo I was sold. I signed up the same day as the price wasn't bad, the highest one was stand alone sessions at $60 each, but if you buy packages it can go as low as $30 a session. I immediately booked my 1st session after the demo and it was even better. Each session is different because it could be with a therapist you want or just have availability, I usually book last minute so I'm not particular about my therapist. I've been with 4 different ones and they all are amazing. You start off by booking on the phone or the app, and my 1st one I accidentally booked it and cancelled within the 12 hours and they corrected it for me even though the policy is to forfeit the session if you cancel too close. What's great is that the 2 locations are owned by the same owners so you can interchange if you want to go to the Eastside or Westside, which isn't the same nationwide. When you start off your session, they ask you what your goals are and what you want to concentrate one. Then they start by warming you up and muscle by muscle, they start targeting your ligaments and slowly stretch you with the 3, 5 , 7 system. It works so well and you get that feeling of not quite pain but just tension when they get to the 7 and it hurts so good. Once they release, you feel your blood flowing to the area and the tightness goes away, at least for me. It works better for me since it addresses the underlying condition of my muscles pulling my spine out of alignment. I loved it so much I referred my mother-in-law and brother-in-law. My mother in law signed up since it helped her sciatica immensely. She would hobble around and after 2 sessions was able to stand straight without pain. I also learned I get free swag when I refer people like t-shirts and water bottles. I refer it though because I actually love the results. I'm not as grouchy (per hubby) because I'm in constant pain and I'm excited to get more exercise in because I'm not as scared to injure myself because I'm more flexible. So go check it out for yourself and help me level up to a towel or bag. LOL Use my code JENSOL1722 when you join El Paso West https://stretchzone.myperformanceiq.com/user/register

Highest Praise!…read more Kinective is far and away the best gym experience in the region -- quality facilities, amazingly pleasant and proficient staff, trainers and managers, beautiful new equipment and a busy class schedule make it a "must try" if it is in your area.

Luxury. Tech. Vibes. This is the gym El Paso's been waiting for…read more I found it, y'all -- the it gym. Kinective Fitness in El Paso is where fitness, fun, and a little bit of bougie all collide in the best way possible. This place is more than a gym -- it's a two-story-plus-rooftop experience that somehow manages to feel upscale and welcoming. Think boutique hotel vibes meet high-tech wellness playground. Let's start with the first floor: it's stunning. The aesthetic is modern, spacious, and designed with intention -- every detail feels thought out. The front desk team was so friendly and helpful from the moment I walked in (even when I had a little misunderstanding about my visit -- more on that later). There's a healthy café right by the entrance serving smoothies and food that fits every lifestyle, including vegan options. They even have a secret door that leads to a massage therapist's suite -- yes, an actual hidden door. There's also a retail section stocked with Lululemon and gym swag, so if you forget something, they've got you covered. Parents, take note -- there's also an on-site kids' daycare on the first floor, which I thought was such a thoughtful touch. It's clean, bright, and makes it so much easier for members with little ones to actually enjoy their workout time without stress. The first floor also houses the HIIT training room -- dark, moody lighting, TRX straps, and those curved, motorless treadmills that make you feel like a machine. MetCon classes happen here too, and if you're serious about lifting, you'll find top-notch equipment plus unique tools for competitors or physique athletes. You'll also spot the personal training offices, a compression therapy area (available for an extra fee), and super clean locker rooms with everything -- infrared sauna, steam room, zero-gravity massage chairs, tons of vanity space, and more showers than I could count. The second floor keeps the wow factor going with tons of cardio equipment overlooking the first level and massive windows with mountain views. This is also where you'll find The Trip, and honestly, this alone makes the membership worth it. The Trip is a next-level immersive cycle class -- think virtual-reality-meets-spin-studio. You ride through projected worlds on enormous screens, and it's all synced to music and visuals. The bikes are smooth, and the tech setup is seriously impressive. You even check in via small digital screens before class. That said, my only real miss came during The Trip. As a first-time guest, I didn't get any help setting up my bike, and the instructor didn't acknowledge new riders. Thankfully, another member helped me out -- shoutout to friendly gym people everywhere -- but I wish someone had guided me through that first experience. It's a small thing that makes a big difference, especially in a high-end gym like this. After class, I met Jeff, the general manager, who gave me a full tour -- and he was phenomenal. Super professional, friendly, and passionate about the space. He explained how every class syncs to your Connective app, showing your heart rate and stats in real-time on giant projectors (unless you choose to opt out). It's all very tech-forward, which I love. Upstairs you'll also find Pilates Reformer classes (extra fee), yoga and barre studios, and even a meditation-only room -- dark, quiet, with twinkling ceiling lights and soft music. It's honestly a dream. Every floor has its own bathrooms (thank you!), and everything is spotless and thoughtfully designed. And then -- the rooftop. The vibe up here is unreal. There's a track for running or walking, kettlebells, monkey bars, and a full outdoor workout setup with mountain views. At night, it transforms into this elevated hangout space with misters, ambient lighting, and even a bar serving drinks. They host events up here too, and you don't have to be a member to book one. I came in on a free trial day, but you'd never know it from how I was treated -- the staff was wonderful, and I felt like a valued member. They also offer day passes, week passes, and flexible memberships. So, the hits? Pretty much everything. The design, the energy, the tech, the amenities -- this place nails the luxury fitness experience. The misses? Just a couple small service gaps during my first visit. But overall, Kinective Fitness is absolutely the boutique gym of El Paso -- where wellness meets wow. There's a second location coming soon ! (Plano , TX)

I am sharing this feedback in hopes that management can address an ongoing issue regarding parking…read moreand customer service. On the positive side, Pink Iron is a very clean, pleasant, and safe environment to work out in. The facility itself is great. However, there is a daily issue with parking management that needs attention. Every day, a specific parking spot is blocked off for a member of the staff (Aide). The explanation given is that she needs to unload heavy items daily, though multiple clients have noticed this isn't usually the case. What makes this frustrating is that the plaza itself has a clear policy prohibiting the blocking or reserving of parking spaces. Furthermore, the gym has a rear access door specifically designed for deliveries and staff use. When clients accidentally park in this spot, we are immediately asked to move. Hoping to understand the situation, I politely brought this up with the staff. Unfortunately, instead of a professional conversation, Aide approached me in the middle of my workout routine. She defended the practice by saying that since we are at a gym, clients "can just walk." While I have absolutely no problem walking, it feels disrespectful to force paying clients to move their cars--especially when the reservation violates plaza rules and alternative access exists. To make matters worse, she mockingly asked if I was the one who had been filing reports against it. This made me realize that I am not the first client to complain about this issue. It was incredibly uncomfortable to feel cornered and bullied in the middle of my training session just for raising a valid question. Suggested Solution: I enjoy this gym and want to see it thrive. I highly encourage management to enforce the plaza's official parking rules equally for everyone and to utilize the rear entrance for staff loading. More importantly, I hope staff members receive guidance on how to handle client feedback with professionalism, respect, and kindness rather than defensiveness.

Okay, this studio gets it. Hot Box in El Paso is the real deal when it comes to hot classes -- no…read moregimmicks, no fluff, just pure fire (literally). I dropped in for a hot Pilates class, and from the moment I walked in, everyone was smiles, greetings, and genuine warmth. The vibe was welcoming, the energy was high, and the class? Next level. I've taken a lot of hot Pilates and yoga over the years, but never with a male instructor -- and wow, he absolutely delivered. From start to finish, the class was intentional, challenging, and perfectly balanced. We used bands, dumbbells, blocks, and towels -- everything was provided, which I love. The room was dark, the music was vibey (think transient EDM that keeps you in the zone), and the heat was real. This isn't infrared -- it's that old-school, steamy, humid heat that pushes you past your limits. Pro tip: hydrate hard 24-48 hours before you go. Bring a big water bottle (or two). I had to sit out part of the squat series because I started to feel lightheaded -- but the instructor immediately noticed, turned a fan on me, and checked in multiple times. That level of attentiveness is rare. He even handed out chilled, essential-oil-soaked towels at the end of class and pressed them gently on our eyes and temples while cueing deep breaths. All the senses were hit. There's no shower (well they've removed the knobs so you cannot access the shower , when I asked about the shower the owner explained how hard it would be to manage 1 shower and 2 classrooms full of folks wanting to use shower- which I totally get ), but there are three bathrooms -- two downstairs and one upstairs , plenty of places to change clothes after class-- plus a massive room & cubby area to drop your stuff so it never feels crowded. The studio itself is beautiful, with a bold mural at the front and such a great community vibe. A regular even helped me out mid-class -- total team energy. This is not a beginner-friendly class, and I mean that in the best way. It's intense, sweaty, and humbling -- exactly what you want when you sign up for something called Hot Box. I've practiced yoga for about 20 years all over the country, and this studio officially made my top three nationwide. The drop-in fee was $30, and it was worth every penny. My only regret? Not snagging that cute Hot Box sweater before class (front desk was empty afterward). Lesson learned: buy your swag before you get drenched. If you're looking for a studio that's tough, authentic, and packed with good vibes -- Hot Box is it. Come hydrated, come ready, and come to sweat.

The Westside Natatorium is accessible to the public and they offer public lap reservations, host competitions, team training, and they even help kiddos how to swim. The facility is setup with separate entries for spectator viewing and there are dedicated spectator bathrooms and locker room for those who are swimming. What really stood out to me is how they have an upper deck for spectators and there are plenty of rows for friends and family to watch. If you are interested in getting a swim workout in there are two ways to go about it. You can make a reservation ahead of time for a one hour session or you can roll the dice and simply walk-in. I have yet to make a reservation because the lanes are so large that it's pretty easy to grab a lane. Each lane is able to hold up to four swimmers. I've lucked out and have only had to share at most a lane with one other swimmer.

It's also an excellent way to skip the traffic when traveling from New Mexico to El Paso (and probably visa versa but can't confidently confirm that part). I was leaving New Mexico after having a wonderful dinner and saw that there was a ton of traffic getting back to El Paso on my GPS. It suggested an alternate route; Trans Mountain Road. Normally, I'd probably just sit in traffic when I'm in an unfamiliar place. I'm from the Bay Area (California), and I am no stranger to horrible traffic. But who the hell wants to sit in traffic while they're on vacation?! I already deal with that 5 days out of the week, so spare me. It was still daylight so I decided to do it. I've driven on many windy roads, but I'll admit that this one was kind of nerve racking. Mostly because some of you Texans just don't know how to drive (sorry, not sorry). But once I got to the top of the hill and those views started to appear, it became enjoyable. I saw a vista point with a few cars parked in the distance and immediately pulled off to park there. Yep, this was it. I hit the jackpot. The pictures of the vista point doesn't do it justice. The views are outstanding! Panoramic beauty and lots of it. There's even a cute little lookout point and some picnic tables up there. It was windy as hell though, so not sure if I'd sit out there and eat something for fear of being blown over. Maybe in the summer when the weather is warmer and the winds are milder, but still. Fantastic city views of El Paso and some nice views of the New Mexican desert hills. This is definitely a hidden chill spot. I can only imagine how gorgeous the sunrises and sunsets are, but I'm sure it's even gnarlier to drive this road when it's dark. In any event, it's a lovely vista with an adventurous drive and a nice escape from traffic.

To Whom It May Concern, I am writing to formally report a series of concerning interactions with a maintenance employee named Maria at the Planet Fitness located at 1505 N Zaragoza Rd, El Paso, TX 79936. I have been a member of this gym for 1 year, and until recently, my experiences have been positive with the maintenance . However, on several occasions at both the Joe Battle and Zaragoza locations, I have encountered behavior from Maria that I perceive as passive-aggressive and potentially hazardous. Specifically, Maria has mopped excessively close to me while I was using the gym equipment, to the extent that it has interfered with my ability to exercise safely and comfortably. On one occasion, her actions forced me to alter my workout routine, and on another, she obstructed my path to the stair master. Today she pushed herself into my back pushing me in to the bench in the locker room. I have been reluctant to bring this issue to your attention due to Maria's seniority and out of respect for her position. However, I am concerned about the safety implications of her behavior, particularly given my history of a knee injury that requires careful management to avoid re-injury. I would like to request that this matter be investigated and addressed appropriately. I believe everyone has the right to a safe and respectful environment at the gym, and it is crucial that maintenance staff conduct their duties without endangering or inconveniencing members. I appreciate your attention to this matter and look forward to a resolution that ensures a safe and welcoming environment for all gym members. Sincerely, Cynthia Lopez read more

I really didn't want to go. Crossfit? Are you kidding me?? I can't do that stuff! When we got there, everyone introduced themselves to us and they were so friendly. It felt weird but nice at the same time. We signed up after that first night. The classes are only an hour long and yes, they're tough. But I love the challenge. Even if you can't do a pull-up, push up or can't even lift the barbell, the coaches help modify the work outs for you until you get to that level. This gym is a crossfit protocol gym. They focus a lot on the weights. They go through different cycles, which always keeps your body guessing. If we do end up doing a workout more than once, it's because they want to challenge us and see if we can beat our last time or reps. You check into the classes through their own app or online. There's different levels of memberships, depending how long you want to sign up for. And they even have specials every now and then. Any crossfit gym is pricy, but it's worth it. The owner designs all of the classes for us and puts in a lot of time and effort to make his gym what it is. All the coaches do. This gym is like a family now. Everyone is so nice, we have get togethers and gym shirt and hoodies for sale. Definitely give RKU a try.

I joined this "Box" after Crossfitting at another gym for nearly 6 months. I LOVED Crossfit! It…read morecompletely changed my body and my life! I relocated to El Paso so the hunt for Crossfit gyms began. Crossfit RKU has 2 locations. A North and East Location. I started out with the North location before I knew about the one in the East. The programming is solid. This is not a Crossfit gym that follows fads as far as training. I have no complaints about the training program at all! The main complaint, (which is a pretty big one if You know anything about Crossfit) is the community itself. Crossfit is unlike a regular global gym where You put Your headphones on and block out the outside world and workout. Here, community is everything. There is much encouragement and even the last person is cheered on as they are finishing their WOD or Workout of the Day. Here, not so much. This Crossfit gym is VERY clicky. Upon joining, all of the guys were friendly, but the women scowled as if You showed up to steal their boyfriend. (There are many couples here) and that really did not change. The only friendly females is the owners wife and the lady that collects the money. Other than that, they just stare. Especially during "partner wods" they pair up with each other and treat new people as if they have rabies or something. I actually decided to get over it because I was there to work out, but I did not look forward to going there. One day I overheard someone talking about the North location, which happened to be closer to my job, so I decided to try there. This location was MUCH better in terms of people being friendly. THe programming is good and the people were much nicer. Even after meeting a few of the girls there, they all talked about how people are at the East location which is why some of them drive further just to go here. I eventually decided that I no longer wanted to be a part of Crossfit RKU. At most Crossfit locations, what makes it different is that they don't bind You to a contract because it's about "community" more than the contract. You normally have to give 2-3 months notice and that's it. Not here. You have to either move or have a Doctors note. So I pay $130 per month and I don't go to the place. Because there are so many other Crossfit locations that get the"community" aspect and would not lock You into a contract if You don't want to be there, I would NOT recommend this box. There are too many other locations to experience the community of Crossfit. Crossfit RKU is not it. The only reason the place gets 2 stars is because their Programming is solid.

Ironworks Gym

Ironworks Gym East in Fort Bliss also know as Mission Essential Fitness "MEF"…read more Is located off Anzio way in East Bliss. Its a large well set large heavy duty tent with an outstanding AC and lots of Cross Fitness equipment along with a few treadmills. Yes, many staff here don't like it when we state that essentially it is a cross fitness facility but it is. Iron Works East is open from Monday to Friday from 0600-1800 hrs with guided 45 minutes unit training available at 0630. If you are planning to bring your squad/platoon/company here for pt please call ahead and make a reservation; this is very important so they can have the appropriate number of staff available to guide and train appropriately. I have always had a very positive experience; the staff is knowledgeable, helpful and patient. All troops must have their CAC card to enter. I do wish they had "cubies" where one can leave cell phone and water bottle etc.

This place is also commonly known as the MEF or Mission Essential Fitness. I come here most…read moreafternoons during my lunch break to do the 30-station work out they have on the board. Its a great workout that only lasts 45 minutes and helps keep your cardio up when you're tired of running everyday which the army loves for some reason. With that being said, the gym is just alright. The equipment they have is geared towards cross fit/Olympic lifts which is great and is really all you need for a good workout. What this place needs, however, is a snack bar that you can buy shakes or food from after your workout. As it stands, it's purely a gym and that's it. The speakers they have are dated and it's obvious they are on their last leg; they need to be updated. Also, the bathrooms - especially the showers - need to be cleaned more regularly. The place appears to be old and run down when the facility honestly isn't that old. It's the failure to maintain the facility which gives off the appearance of it being old. The main guy at the front desk in the mornings - Jon - is extremely helpful and friendly and will gladly explain any exercise you have questions about. He's also the guy you talk to if you're interested in "competing" for the 1,000lb club. All in all, I enjoy coming here as I get a great afternoon workout during my lunch break. Hit the MEF!!

The coaching staff is amazing and know their stuff when it comes to all the various cross-functional movements you will encounter in CrossFit. The programming is constantly evolving to adapt to what's seen in the competitions and is easily scalable for all different levels of fitness. The best part, everyone treats eachother like family. We work hard and play harder! I'd recommend this gym to anyone looking for a new gym family!

The staff was really friendly and accommodating. The best thing was how willing they were to help when we left a phone inside the gym and they closed right after we left. I called and spoke to the owner, I think, and he changed a meeting he had to help us out. Now we don't have to drive without a phone! I highly recommend this box!

On the downside, the gym does have a large open space in the middle of the gym, which seems like wasted space. The free weight area is not that big, so it's always busy. I usually go to the sauna after my workouts, but there are many hoops to go through in order to access the sauna here. You need to go to the front desk to request a key, only one person is allowed at a time, and no shoes allowed inside. Pretty inconvenient in my opinion.

He has custom workouts that are one month to three months in length that are challenging and fun. He personally works with, and monitors everyone to ensure correct form when lifting, and maximum potential. Because he is a trainer, he works with weak and sore parts of your body to build a strong core. Another perk of this gym is the Massage Therapist on staff, $40 for an hour. I started going six months ago, then my thirteen year old started going and finally my ten year old. My kids absolutely love it, and he is great with kids, they are his passion and inspiration behind creating this gym. This place is a "come as you are," place, where you will come in knowing nobody and leave knowing everybody. I've worked out in twenty too thirty gyms and I have to say, there is nothing like this place...AWESOME.
