The workouts are challenging, but he is able to seamlessly adjust them for people of any fitness level. I have worked out with Jim for about 2 years now and I know from my own experience, as i started at about a 1 on the fitness scale and can now keep up with people half my age (I turn 50 this month). I highly recommend making an appointment to stop by and see for yourself.

McClure wasn't my first love in the fitness world, but I have a strong feeling that they'll be my…read morelast!! Back over 15 years ago, I started Jillian Michaels' videos and I've been pretty fanatical about her style/method throughout the years. Less than a year ago, we relocated to the Bryant area and I had heard about this gym from some coworkers. This past April I decided to give it a try, and what a GREAT decision that turned out to be!! Although, I had worked out consistently for 5-6 days/week over the years, most of my workouts were the Jillian or Autumn Calabrese Beachbody videos. Most of these workouts were only 30 minute long videos (a few were an hour), and turns out that I just THOUGHT I had been working out. McClure has taken my fitness journey to a whole other level!! The first few months kicked my butt, but in the best way possible!! I got so much stronger than I ever even thought possible and am now in the best shape that I've EVER been in before at 35 years old. The atmosphere is relaxed, yet challenging--and it's a total "no excuses" vibe which I love!! Need modifications? The instructors would be more than happy to provide them. Since I always did the workout videos in my living room, I considered myself a lone wolf exerciser and wasn't sure how I'd like the group environment. It's awesome!! There's a total supportive atmosphere to so many people giving it their all on the gym floor together. Definitely strength in numbers & an accountability factor. Sometimes, I try to feed off of competitiveness, as well, like trying to be as fast as this person or that. It really pushes me compared to my old school living room workout videos. My advice to anyone seeking a place to workout is to give it a try. I suggest trying more than one class because the classes that are offered are so diverse and versatile. Don't make your judgment on one visit. When I started, I got a punch card for 10 classes and tried numerous classes to hit on instructors who matched the style/intensity that I was looking for. I feel like that's a good route to go because they all have different things to offer. Also, the owner of the gym definitely "practices what she preaches" and for me that is so important. She's always been welcoming and happy to help with any question I've had during this process. For once in my life, I actually LOOK like someone who works out 5-6 days/week and, no doubt, that is 100% due to McClure!!

I don't like regular creamer but they stopped putting the French out but have seen it sitting on their counter behind the employees area for them to use.

Can never cancel your membership!!! In 2021, join and paid for a trainer at this location. Location…read moreseemed fine and trainer was great. However, after 1 year, my schedule hadn't been allowing me to go so I decided to cancel. I was told by home office that I had to go into my home gym and cancel. So I did. I met with the trainer, completed all the forms presented to me on their computer and left. I never went to the gym again. Only to find out 3 months later they were still charging my credit card. I call home office and was told, that completing the cancelation at the gym was not the correct path. I had to complete forms from them (home office). I was sent the forms and sent them back in fall of 2022. Also around this time, I stopped using the card I had on file with them and worked to pay it off. Once it was paid off in summer of 2024 I closed the card. Only to find out that the only charge that had been happening during the payoff period was still 10 fitness. I started getting delinquency notices. I called home office, explained everything as stated above. Was told they would review it. I never heard back. Before thanks giving I went to the HQ in Maumelle near city hall. Told they would have someone call me and get it taken care of. Dec I get emails stating that my account has been closed and I'm at risk of being turned over to collects for non-payment. I went back to HQ, spoke to another person who told me she would get the manager of the Maumelle location and some others in the building to look into and take care if it. 3 weeks later I have gotten a collection notice stating I have 6 months past due fees. This is the worst experience trying to cancel a membership and doing everything they have ask, only for them not to honor their end of the canceling the membership. I guess $17 is too much for them to lose a month to really work on customer service. I would recommend to join only if you plan to never cancel your membership. It definitely feels like a timeshare or other BS marketing tactic to keep you locked in forever!!! They only get 1 star due the trainer who is super awesome.

This place is as good as it gets. I'm no pro, but I've been to a few boxing gyms (and dozens of…read morefitness studios), and I've never seen a place that matches Straightright in quality of workout, instructors, price, and general vibe. Here's why: Environment: As someone who was fairly new to boxing, going to a non-chain gym was a little intimidating. Even walking in was a little scary! But that feeling didn't last long - within minutes of me walking in I was being helped by instructors and students alike with my wrapping. These are definitely some of the friendliest and most welcoming people I know. Just downright nice people! Quality of workout: Throughout the class (Total Body Fitness) I felt like I was getting personal attention and that - most of all - I was learning how to box safely and with the right technique. The class was also HARD!!!! I am someone who likes fairly intense workouts, and this one left me out of breath and excited to come back. I also love that the gym offers an introductory boxing class for newbies so we can learn the proper form and technique. Price: After attending the first introductory class, I think you get 1-2 classes free. At this point, I've been to 3 total body fitness classes and definitely will be coming back every time I am in town. All in all - I'm sad that I moved to Dallas because now I have to find a place as good as this one! Happy my in-laws live in Little Rock so I have an excuse to come back and box here :).
