TPS offers such a unique sense of community, it will become your favorite part of the day. Once a month, they host a training day highlight different lifts. This is such an incredible opportunity as you work very closely with the coaches to perfect every detail of your lift. The goal of this gym is to help you become the best and most knowledgeable version of yourself. I am so proud to be a member of this amazing establishment. I have grown so much confidence. Thanks guys!

Pretty much meathead on benches with talkative attitude and leans Guys/gals on squat for 30mins. I'm glad there are no deadlift or maybe I haven't seen one doing it. Seriously 250lbs dude bench 275lbs are not impressive or guys took 5mins on rest and bench some 245lbs with arch back bench press for 1-2reps was a joke. Or 140lbs dude bench 135lbs & took 5mins each rest. This was all happened at same time maybe faith bought them together. Skip this gym for your own gain. I gave two stars because of the easy sign up trial I'm glad it didn't cost me anything but make me missed out to bench with my friend for my 275lbs bench.

This seems to be a large YMCA, including a running track a basketball court a huge workout area…read morewith lots of free weights and machines. The best thing is it has three swimming pools. One pool is basically a splash type pool for free swim. they also have a designated lap pool, which is what I am interested in. The third is an outside pool, which I have not used however, summer is approaching and I will check it out, but I assume it's gonna be for family and children on hot days more than someone like myself that swims laps. The facility is very large, but has tight parking. It is located behind downtown Malden. The staff throughout the facility all seem very nice and always try to be helpful. Be prepared when school lets out for there to be a lot of extra activity here as that's one of the high populated times of the day toddlers and highschoolers alike.

DO NOT SIGN UP THE MAKE IT LITERAL HELL TO CANCEL…read more WAS a decent gym. Has gotten worse under whoever bought the brand from Blink. The biggest issue I have with FLASH is that they illegally use cancellation tactics and roadblocks to make it almost impossible to cancel the membership. Under MA state law their "rules and conditions" are illegal. I have spent almost a half a year of my very busy life trying to get this con of a company to cancel my membership.

Pros: Very clean gym with nice staff. Decent price as well…read more Con 1: Way too many members. If you go in there anytime between 3pm and 7pm you will be waiting for machines, every time.

I'm so glad I found Core Cardio Fitness. I initially joined one of the 6 week transformation…read morechallenges and have continued to go to the classes ever since. The classes are challenging but fun and engaging. I love the small group atmosphere and it's been fun getting to know other members and becoming a part of the community. The best part is that Ashely gets to know everyone personally and he will push you outside your comfort zone if he knows you are capable of more but will also give you modifications for any exercise that you need. I've lost weight, noticed my clothes fitting better and have gotten into a much better exercise and healthy eating routine. I've also gotten a lot stronger and built muscle which is something I struggled to do on my own. After a long day at work, I actually look forward to going to Core Cardio and working out. I'd definitely recommend it!

Core Cardio is an amazing place. The trainers/instructors, the classes, and the community are…read morefantastic. They offer TRX (suspension training), Real Ryder Cycling, Bootcamp, Cardio Kick Boxing and Zumba! Even in the largest classes(about 12-15 students max for bootcamp) everyone gets personal attention, and the instructors are tuned into everyone's different goals and fitness levels, and they care. They also have a running club that meets 3 times a week, 2 times the meet ups are local in malden, and on the weekends they do a destination run, and the club is made up of all different levels. The club also does local 5k and 10k races. I think the biggest thing that makes this place so wonderful, besides the amazing classes and fantastic instructors, is how welcoming it is, not only do the instructors care about their clients, the studio/running club members care about each other and support each other. This is an ideal place for anyone who wants to challenge themselves. If your looking to make a lifestyle change, and add exercise to your life, this is the gym for you. If your already in great shape and looking to up your game, this is gym for you. If you've always hated gyms and work out studios(I would fit into this category) this is the gym for you. I started at this gym just shy of 6 months ago. I was desperate to get into shape and fit into my wedding dress, I had 8 weeks to lose it, or they were going to have to cut my dress and remake it(read nightmare), in 8 weeks with the help of Ashley and everyone at Core Cardio, they had to take my dress in( 4 inches in total). That was the first goal core cardio helped me reach, recently I hit another personal goal of running a 5k in under 30 minutes, so running under ten minute miles. I recently hit this goal as well, I ran a race that I'd previously run, but I dropped about 8 minutes off my time. In addition to all of that I have dropped 3 pant sizes, and lost 11.5 pounds. For my height and build I'm now only about 10lbs away from my ideal weight and I know with core cardio I will get there. You will not regret making the time and trying your first class free! You literally have nothing to lose.

I was very excited to be at Lifetime. I was invited as a guest and walked in feeling motivated and…read morehappy to experience the gym. Unfortunately, that completely changed after taking a class with the instructor, Alexander Liviner. From the beginning, his attitude came across as arrogant and superior -- exactly the opposite of what I was hoping for. At one point, he made fun of me for being slow. It was completely unnecessary. If he was trying to be funny, it wasn't funny at all. It felt humiliating rather than motivating. I also got a little confused with the weights and accidentally grabbed the wrong one. Instead of guiding me or correcting me in a professional way, he made a facial expression that made me feel like I was stupid. A coach's role is to support and teach -- not to mock or belittle someone who is trying. It also felt like he clearly favored more advanced participants, giving them more attention while others were left feeling invisible. I left the class embarrassed, disappointed, and honestly regretting that I took it. It was a horrible experience. Lifetime should choose instructors who lead with encouragement and professionalism -- not arrogance or favoritism.

Lifetime at Medford is a very new and beautiful facility. The equipment is modern and everything…read morelooks high-end. However, I do think there is room for improvement when it comes to overall cleanliness and attention to detail. Unfortunately, my experience in a class with an instructor named Alexander was very disappointing. It was my first time taking that class, and it was completely full. I did not feel properly guided or supported as a beginner. It was very clear that he showed preference toward certain pretty women in the class, giving them most of his attention. At times, it felt unprofessional, as if he was more focused on flirting and showing off than actually instructing. That kind of behavior should stay outside of a professional fitness class setting. Because I did not receive proper corrections, I ended up with knee pain after the session from doing repeated squats incorrectly. As a first-timer, I expected more supervision and professionalism. Overall, the gym itself has great potential, but this experience left a very bad impression. I would not recommend taking his class.

I drove to Medford where they told me that that club was under a different PF franchise. They said I couldn't come in without paying. I then drove to the Waltham club where they let me in to workout. Porter Sq should have listed the clubs that I could go to. Medford should have let me in for the day, given what I had to go through. Very disappointing. Waste of lots of gasoline when gas is expensive. Waste of my time and energy too.

I really enjoy this gym--my boyfriend and I have been members for some time now and the only…read moreproblem we ever had was with the TVs on the elliptical/treadmills not working (this was resolved long ago, thankfully!) They have a good number of cardio machines and weights along with a back room where you can watch work out programs (we really like this feature and have used it a few times). They also have bathrooms with showers (male and female). It's generally pretty quiet so we rarely have a hard time getting machines. The only reason I am docking them a star is because of their staffed hours. I understand they cannot be staffed 24/7, and I've personally never had a problem, but on a few occasions my boyfriend and I have been in the gym and noticed people loitering outside. On one occasion we left and the gentleman outside (who had been waiting outside for around 25 minutes) asked us if there was anyone inside and we said no. This was a Saturday and apparently he had called and they said they would be there from 11-3 (same hours posted on the door), but there it was 2:00 and no one was there. A similar event happened on another Saturday but it was earlier in the day, around 11:45 when we left the gym (again hours said 11:00-3:00) but no one was there. The poor guy had waited outside for quite some time and had obviously gone out of his way (we saw him go to his car, we can luckily walk over), only to find that no one was there to show him around/sign him up. Saturdays are obviously a busy day for sign ups/inquiries because a lot of people probably work late on weekdays and can't make it over. I think it would be a good idea to post signs on the door if the place won't be staffed as promised. Otherwise great gym! Maybe call ahead before you head down to sign up and make sure that someone will actually be there, though it seems they leave early sometimes so you never know?
