Was ready to give up hope. Something told me to try again, was able to get in contact with a trainer (Charles), and schedule a training session. Started off with determining how unhealthy and big I was , (was pretty big and pudgy), and they encouraged me and let me know that there was room for improvement. I. Was assigned to work with Khendal, the other trainer there, and over the last few months, she and Charles have worked diligently for me to form my ideal body. (Luke Cage baby!) I'm stronger, uh... maybe faster, and my stamina has increased. Definitely can lift more than on day one. To throw in a tip, nutrition is a huge part of working out. If you work out and eat an entire cake after, you aren't making progress and feeding you muscles what they crave. Protein. Lots and lots of protein. This gym does cost a pretty penny, but the support and the desire to become your best self and be fit and healthy is there. Thus, gotta give them 5 stars.

The trainers are knowledgable and really push you to achieve your goals…read more I like that they took the time to do an assessment at the beginning of the challenge and the end so you could see your progress. It's different than any other gym I've ever been to... in a good way. The workouts are intense but short... Who wants to workout for 2hrs when you can get the same results in 20 minutes a day. I lost over 30lbs during the challenge. I'm hooked!

I really really enjoyed this class. The facility was very clean. The class sizes are small (can…read moreonly hold 12 people), but this means that the workouts can be even more personal and individualized. The trial/intro class is only held on Saturdays at a specific time. This class was at 10:45am-11:15am. The workouts are all modified initially, which I didn't care for but I understand why they're modified on the first class. The instructor was friendly and really helped us get an understanding of what Pilates is like. The membership is PRICEY!! However, they do offer discounts to military, students, nurses, and teachers. Unlimited plan for the West Cobb location is $199/month. The other plan is $159/2 days per week or $29 per session if you don't want a membership. There is also an enrollment fee of $59. This can easily add up. Overall, I really liked it. I would join but I'm currently already in another gym membership and can't add another cost right now. I would look into in the future though.

Then I received a unknown charge on my credit card that I never authorized. Horrible app for booking, hard to get in touch, huge wailists (they continue to sell memberships), and unknown charges. There are other pilates studios that are much better in the area and easier to get into.

The facility is spacious, well-maintained, and offers a wide range of equipment for all fitness levels. What really stands out, though, is the coaching staff. The coaches/ trainers are knowledgeable, approachable, and genuinely care about your progress. They are always friendly and quick to assist with any questions. Beginning with Archie's, "it would be an honor to assist with achieving your fitness and nutritional goals" persona; it trickles down to all of V Fit's staff. I've consistently participated in the CrossFit classes which are both fun and challenging. Lastly and most importantly is the incredible sense of community. From the moment I walked in, I was welcomed by friendly faces and people who genuinely care about each other's progress. The members here are supportive and motivating, and it feels more like a group of friends than a typical gym. Whether you're a beginner or a seasoned athlete, everyone encourages each other, and the trainers make it a point to help you reach your goals without any judgment. The V hosts regular social events, from member challenges to weekend hikes, which help build connections outside of just working out. I've met so many great people here and it's easy to see why so many people keep coming back. Overall, I'm really happy with my membership and would highly recommend. To anyone looking a place not only to exercise but where you fell like you truly belong, The V is your place.

You wear a fitness monitor and you can watch your stats on the screen during class and you are emailed a report at the end of class. Classes typically last about an hour and you do a variety of exercises including cardio on the treadmill and rowing machine as well as stregnth training with weights and body weight exercises. I enjoy the classes because it's like having a personal trainer but in a team environment. Lou is a fantastic coach at this location and he makes a point to know participants names, encourage the class and give feedback to technique. He models proper form and demonstrates modifications to workouts as well. My only qualm is it is expensive. But if you are committed to your health then it is MORE than worth it.

PBWC offers a super challenging workout with awesome instructors and a great sense of community…read more I've been doing cardio at the gym on my own for a couple of years and finally got dragged in by my mom and sister. I've never been big on group classes but with barre I love that I get a guided workout (so I don't have to think about it!) while at the same time I'm able to really focus on my movements and get lost in the loud music. Every class is a little different so it never gets boring but it's consistent enough that you know you'll always work your entire body! No dance experience needed and all skill levels will be fine and have tons of room to keep getting stronger. I walked in with basically no core or upper body strength thinking "how hard can this be?" Uh, hard! I barely made it through my first class but after being assured that this was pretty normal and getting some awesome coaching from the instructors I've stuck with it and am super pleased with that decision. After just a month I feel my body changing and getting stronger every single day. I leave every single class sweaty, exhausted, and a little stronger than I was when I walked in. Totally recommend.

We signed up for a family acct. One our first visit, we used the pool. The lifeguard informed me…read morethat our children had to take a swim test is they either (1. wanted to swim without an adult/parent in the water with them) or (2. wanted to be allowed to swim outside the arms length of the parent/adult). I was in the water with my 8 & 11 year old children because I feel like it is the responsible thing to do when you take your children to a pool regardless of their swim capabilities. I allow my 11 year to attempt the test for fun. The lifeguard wanted them to swim the length of the pool which my children can do. However, the lifeguard would not pass my child because the swim stroke was not perfect. I have personally been a lifeguard, swim instructor, and swim team coach for over 20 years. My children know their strokes but I have not forced them to be on teams or swim long distance. Do I want them to, yes. But I have not forced it. My children have good strokes for more than half the pool distance but get tired toward the end and get sloppy but are not in danger. The strokes just don't look as nice as they did. Our children visit our neighborhood pool just about everyday in the summer and swim unassisted with no issues. It is winter and perhaps the kids are a little out of practice in the 4-5 months since it has been warm enough to attend the neighborhood pool but again, not in danger and swim fine. But not competitive swimmers. We were told that my daughter did not pass the test even though she could swim unassisted the length of the pool. So we just tried to enjoy our time in the pool and planned to try again another day. However, then the lifeguard reprimanded me multiple times because my 8 and 11 year old swimming children were outside of an arms length of distance from me. Again they swim on their own, and I am in the water with them if they need me. The swim test expectations are too high and I now understand why there were no other families there on a Saturday afternoon. The swim test expectations are too high and the lifeguards to strict on their arms length rule for families to enjoy this pool. Again, I have been a lifeguard, instructor, and swim coach for 20 years so I have a solid base of knowledge with which to make this assertion. I attempted to connect with YMCA on this via email. My email was forwarded to the Aquatics Director and I have not received any response. We are planning to cancel this membership as our children cannot go and enjoy the pool because the rules are too strict and I understand this industry better than most. With rules this strict, the lifeguard is really a waste of money as they basically don't allow children in the pool and only adults may swim. I would still love a response but If I do not get one, we will continue with cancelation. Good luck if you have children and planned to use this pool.
