    I'm not sure why there have been so many negative reviews for this place. We stopped in here today…read morefor a workout, we are on the road, so taking advantage of our black card benefit. We checked in quickly they have lockers that you can code right in the main area. They had plenty of cardio equipment and I did not see any machines that were out of order. I used an elliptical and it worked just fine, no rocking or unsteadiness at all. I also did the leg circuit and everything worked just fine. They have a separate room for PF 360 that also has some leg equipment along the wall. They have a dedicated 30 minute circuit still, which is kind of hard to find these days. And then, lastly there is a stretching room, they actually have a barre so if you were doing a class on your phone, the space is available as well as mats for floor work back in the space The only thing I found a little dusty was the restroom. The staff were friendly, and the main area was very clean. No complaints!

    As a Black Card member who travels quite a bit, I get to a few Planet Fitness clubs. This will be…read moremy 90th and it ranks as one of the worst. Not the equipment, that was fine. I'm sorry, but the locker room is what's bad here. I did my 30 minute circuit as I usually do and everything there worked just fine. No waiting for machines and not at all crowded at 6am on a weekday. After, over to the showers. And that's where improvement is needed. Water pressure was low. Hot water was minimal. And then, the sinks also had low pressure and appeared to have not been cleaned in some time. Two of them blocked with hair and other stuff. That's just gross. If I need just a workout, this would work in the future. If I need a shower, I'll try a different club. [Review 710 of 2026 - 61 in Kansas - 25891 overall]

    The Shop Topeka is a Cross-Fit style gym that empasizes results instead of looks like most common…read moregyms. The Shop's exercises are comprised of group workouts. The Shop's dynamic group workouts emphasize mobility and body control, whipping lethargic muscles into shape without the crowded mechanical mishmash of big gyms. Small groups of 4-12 range in age and abilities but unite under a common flag of functional fitness, employing a slew of sandbags, free weights, and other forms of forceful resistance to usurp despotic fat cells. All classes are led by certified CrossFit trainers, whose battle-tested ethos shines through in a swiftly alternating, circuit-style workout format that shuns routine for a diverse range of movements including lifting, sprinting, jumping, dragging, throwing, and scuttling. These high-speed workouts are designed to accommodate military personnel, police officers, firefighters, and all professions who often work under stress and fatigue, emboldening participants to bulldoze mental blockades and drink from untapped sources of personal endurance. Ambitious athletes can master their muscles in up to five classes each week, selecting from the multiple class days and times on The Shop's schedule, with one-hour workouts typically beginning in the early morning and evening. A 2,400-square-foot complex capably houses most workouts, though trainers also arrange weekly programs of trail running, hill sprints, biking, and baby-elephant shot putting around the Topeka area. If you want the treadmills and mirrors, this isn't the place for you. If you want to feel better than you have ever felt and look better in your swimsuit this might be your place. Unmotivated people need not apply.

    The shop is a fantastic Box/ Gym/ workout…read more I was visiting family and had just started crossfit the month before. Everyone in The Shop was very welcoming and helpful despite my inexperience. From the coach to the participants, it couldn't have been a more pleasant experience, well other than the kickass workouts. I can easily see that this gym works for everyone from beginner to fitness freak. The Shop is the real deal. I plan on attending again, the next time I am in the area.
