So far I've really only been to the locker room and the main lifting area (I'm assuming) on the ground level. The front desk staff has been friendly, and there is a store I want to explore on the right as you walk in (heard good things). It's clear both inside and from the outside that there is much more to the building but that will be for as time progresses. Very much a "lifters" gym due to the vibes, the color palette is fairly dark and muted, primarily consisting of various shades of gray and black with an occasional red accent. On the wall there is a large mural of two bodybuilders, next to a 16 tv array display showcasing the game, or Ronnie Coleman lifting videos. On the floor there is a plethora of equipment, truly anything any lifted would need or even really want. The space is large, and with that packed with equipment while maintaining healthy spacing between pieces, which is very much appreciated. When it gets busy there may be a tad wait for some pieces but that is anywhere, and very reasonable. Staple workout pieces have multiples such racks and benches, and so for those it's fairly unlikely you will have to really wait. The equipment is modern, clean, and seems to be well maintained. The one qualm I have, which very well may be just due to me going later in the day, is the inconsistency of the weights. There are plenty of weights available, but they vary in size/brand/type a lot. Most seem to be iron, but the brands vary so even if the same weight, the sizes vary slightly. Now I don't necessarily mind loading up a bar "asymmetrically", but at the same time it would be kinda nice if I could have matching plates. I understand this is a small and insignificant thing, just one I noticed, and something that could also be very much due to gym goers moving stuff around. If you're going to the gym primarily to lift, I'd likely recommend this gym.

Bucked Up has a really good selection of Arsenal equipment and the gym itself is laid out well. No…read morecomplaints at all about the equipment. The weights were a different story. Plates were all over the gym, left on machines, and mixed up on the racks. It made finding the weight you needed more of a pain than it should have been. If I lived in the area, I'm not sure I'd be a member here. I also don't think I'd recommend others join the gym for this reason. But as a destination gym while traveling, it's definitely worth grabbing a one-day pass and getting a workout in. Good gym with great equipment, they just need to get a handle on keeping the weights organized.

I stopped by to ask about a one-month membership, but instead of listening to what I was asking, I was interrupted, talked over, and treated in a dismissive, condescending manner. Customer service matters, especially when someone is considering becoming a member. The interaction alone was enough for me to decide to take my business elsewhere. I won't be back, and based on my experience, I'll be telling the people in my network to stay away from this gym.

I was super excited when I had this gym was opening up and so we decided to show up Saturday to…read morecheck it out. It was super pack which I understand and they couldn't give us a tour so we decided to take the free pass and try it for a bit. They gave other people tours but said no to us for some reason. The pool and outside part of the gym was closed and not ready so keep in mind if you pay for membership you don't have access to everything yet. I currently go to O2 I was ready to go to a new gym but this gym really is too crowded and kind of outdated for what it is. Machines were super close together. They try to just add stuff with out logic of spacing when people actual use them. The membership seems expensive with a lot of extra fees to use other parts. I think it more of a check a box fake appeal but when you really look at it... The gym does everything but just not well. Also, people did not clean up after themselves. That not the fault of the gym but the culture here seems to be a lot of people who do not know proper gym equiuette like wiping up or putting your weights away.

This was only my 2nd time to the facility and I was interrupted by the owner who knocked on the changing room door to accuse me of using his facility as a "pit stop" for a shower. I tried to explain to him he was mistaken about my first visit and to check the cameras of my time at the facility. I'm not sure why I had to even explain that scenario or prove this but he had no interest in looking at the footage and he rather I didn't use his facility. Clearly I was changing from business clothes in to work out clothes to begin a workout over my lunch hour while having this very confusing conversation with him. I've been a long time Snap Fitness patron at a different location and was excited to learn this location was close to my office. I'll absolutely not be returning. I very rarely review things but I'm shocked how any establishment treats their customers like this. As a result of his actions, I'll be canceling my membership.

Take note that the…read moreYMCA is nationwide and you need to let them know you are an out of state member when you check in (just say Nationwide Member). Unique features here: - Lots of sitting areas - Top floor indoor track - Large men's and women's locker rooms on the bottom floor - Ample space available to spread out from people - Hair stylist station in men's locker room - Treadmill in men's locker room No complaints here! It's a discombobulated puzzle on the top floor. Each open room offers a different quadrant of machines. One room has your benches/incline/decline. One room has all the treadmills/stairsteppers. One room has yoga/pilates. One room has your weight machines. And the room I finally found is hidden in the back and has all your dumbbells/pulley machines/smith machines. Word to the wise, you'll get a workout going from the bottom to the top floor. Three floors of fun! Enjoy your treasure hunt when you arrive.

There is parking in the back and it was already pretty full around the time I got there. But saw people leaving also. I was greeted promptly by Charles, I believe, and he was kind enough to give me the verbal tour when I said it was my first visit. I could tell this is a large location. Lockers downstairs, spacious and very well kept. Sauna was a delight and good thing it can hold a lot of people because there were like 8 of us inside at one point. A lot of workout equipment, all types of machines like 3 or 4 rooms upstairs for weights/ machines/ cardio/ etc. Areas for stretching and walking circle. The basketball court was great to finish the workout. I will definitely consider visiting again if in the area.
