And despite being up since 9 AM (which is early for me on a weekend, k?), I actually want to workout right now at my new gym: Los Campeones. *Note: I don't really drink energy drinks, and I'm pretty sure -- since I'm so hype on caffeine -- my typing could annihilate the world record. I'm. So. Not. Sleepy. #editingthisreviewisabitdifficult Before I get into Los Campeones, for reference, below are the different types of gyms I've worked out at in my lifetime: A) THE NO-NONESE GYM: With tons of free weights and machines, people visit there to get their swole-on and give hella stink-eye to peeps that mess around doin' nothin'. (Make sure your playlist is on point, playa! Ain't no time for that!) It's usually owned by someone older, yet hella strong. B) CORPORATE GYM: Both Lifetime Fitness and LA Fitness fall under this umbrella. Sure, the degrees of fancy vary, but these types of gyms usually offer classes of some sort. Overall, their membership prices are significantly more expensive. C) CROSSFIT GYM: Can be pretentious and cultish. Classes occur only at certain times and the monthly price may cause you to reconsider splurging while buying groceries. (But price may not matter, since you'll likely be eating paleo anyway.) Benefits: Short time and high intensity workouts do increase overall fitness -- and your booty will be more "apple-bottom" like; however, chances for injury may increase. D) YOGA CHAIN: I was the sweaty guy doing the "tree pose" in the back and falling everywhere. (BTW, there's usually that one person who farts and ruins it for errone.) Los Campeones falls under Category A, and it's the type of gym I prefer. At first glance, it might resemble a Snap Fitness. You know, a place that has plenty of treadmills, climbers, barbells, benches, racks, and free weights aka the bare necessities. But what separates this place from others is their basement. It's covered in fake grass and ideal for specialized high-interval workouts, swinging kettle bells, and other activities that usually require more room. I love it. People go there to workout. Ish is serious, ya'll. Aside from the gym itself, I love their low prices: -$45/ month (automatically deducts from your account). -$55/ month (opting not to use auto-pay). - $65/ month (for couples). Some other costs exist, such as the yearly maintenance fee (which is over $50, I think). Regarding the parking situation, it's kind of difficult. This Los Campeones location resides on one-ways, and their tiny lot fills up during peak hours. I suggest parking on Blaisdell Avenue or 28th on the left (north) side.

Been a member for 10 yrs. Judge free place. Use the machines and take various classes.read more

The ECC is my back-up fitness center for whenever I'm looking for a satisfying run but the…read moreweather's cruddy. Eaganites should be very happy to have such a top-notch place to work out. Their indoor track is my favorite in the South Metro & St. Paul area: rubberized, 3 lanes of comfortable width, 11 laps/mile. It's suspended above the Community Center's basketball courts, which is great for two reasons. 1) It's out of the way so you don't have to worry about people meandering onto the track. 2) There's usually some practice or game going on, which means you'll have a bit of incidental entertainment as you exercise. Also, they have several bays of floor-to-ceiling windows along the one wall, so unlike some basement-like facilities, you'll get to enjoy some natural light as you put in the miles. This facility is clean with a capital C. Everything is spotless--the track, the equipment, even the locker rooms were in impeccable condition. The building's over a decade old (built in 2003, if I recall correctly), but it still looks shiny and new. Pricing is very reasonable; since I'm here fairly infrequently I utilize the walking-track-only day pass, which is less than $5. However, please be aware that this option is not available Monday-Friday between 4-7pm. For a few more bucks you can get full run (no pun intended) of the fitness center with no restrictions. There's all sorts of membership options, of course, that you can find on the website. They have fitness classes and personal training available at the ECC as well. I've never used these services, but it's worth mentioning they exist. Spacious, un-pretentious, affordable, easy to get to, easy to park, friendly staff, never crowded... ultimately, a good gym, and a great amenity for the people of Eagan (and surrounding areas).

This CrossFit box brings all the best: challenging workouts, small class sizes (limited to 12 people), and a supportive community. To be honest, I was beyond intimidated to start classes here. I postponed it for a year to 'try and get into better shape'. I thought CrossFit was for elite athletes only & I was far from that. I eventually joined. What I found is an amazing community of people who were interested in being the best versions of themselves. I can clear my mind, follow the movements & get a great workout within a short period of time. Every workout is challenge that humbles me & makes me dig deep. Another thing I love is that I'm in & out in 1 hour. That's it. No more 2.5 hours at LifeTime Fitness fighting for a locker, fighting for a spot in class and showering. Each class consists of a warm-up, lifting series (15 min.), and workout (typically 20 minutes or less). It's not a cheap gym, but you get your money's worth. The instruction is personal, form is monitored closely, and everyone here knows your name. You are a part of something. You are held accountable (your friends will ask where the hell you've been if you don't show up on Monday). I'm in the best shape of my life, I look better at 31 years old than I did at 21. This CrossFit box is owned & operated by Jordan Below. He coaches most of the classes & has a couple other certified coaches help out as well. Everyone is here to help support your personal goals & Jordan is happy to offer advice and support with nutrition as well. I can't imagine working out anywhere else.

Both my wife and I have been working with Steve (one of the best) for 5+ years and have been very pleased with the results. Don't let the dumpy strip mall exterior fool you, this is the place for serious fitness not because you want to be a body builder, but because you want to do something for yourself. While they don't have the latest gadgets and equipment that doesn't stop them from giving you a solid 1-hour work out and helping you do the same at home and while traveling.

YAY! This is what…read morepersonal training should be! I took 3 sessions about 5 years ago, and using what I learned from them, lost 50 pounds. They told me they wanted to teach me the skills do do this on my own, and they certainly did. In the last year, I have gone back 4-5 times with a friend to just work out for fun, to learn a few new moves, and just stay motivated. Absolutely excellent. There's no unneeded glamor, no over-pumped-up trainers, this is real and this is practical. And it works. The only reason I give it 4 instead of 5 stars is I would like to find a powerlifting contest trainer, and Powersource is more of a practical place. They train real people, all day every day, and that is good and they are very good at it, and the powerlifting trainer would kind of be overkill for them anyhow. Do yourself a favor and go there now.

C4 has month to month unlimited packages and 5 or 10 class packages. The price is SO reasonable, and you can try the gym for free for a week. The community is welcoming from the very first day, and Mollie is available to answer all of your questions. I ended up going to the gym 3-4 times a week and tried classes ranging from boot camp to yoga. Prior to C4, I had stopped lifting and was out of shape, but the C4 instructors are ready to help all skill ranges and ages. I consistently had my form corrected and was encouraged to push myself throughout each class. I would stay with C4 forever if I wasn't moving! If you want a variety of fun workouts mixing cardio and strength training, a supportive community, and excellent trainers, you need to try C4. Special thanks to Mollie and Matt for all of the great classes!
