    A very good & inexpensive place to get a solid workout. I've been going here since my kids were in…read moremiddle school since 2011 almost 10 yrs.

    Tommie Harris, Ellison High School graduate, played for the Chicago Bears and San Diego Chargers…read more(as an defensive end), etc. Now he has donated funds to open up a family recreational center in his home town to make an impact on young children. TOUCHDOWN on my end!!! This rec center is newish (opened maybe 2/3 years ago), clean, and has state of the art equipment that works (unlike other fitness centers). Membership ranges depending on how long you want, but my family and I purchased the Family Package Deal--$40 for 4 people for 1 month (tongue twister). GREAT DEAL!!! All classes are included in the membership at no extra charge, which is awesome! They offer a range of classes from zumba, step, body blast, spin, and circuit training, and core training. All are super fun and you are definitely sweating at the end of them. There are also 2 basketball courts with open gym, a ping pong table, and an air hockey table. The staff is super friendly upon walk in and are willing to give you a tour of the place if you are having doubts. Again, the place is CLEAN. I hate going to work out at a gym and the place smells like straight up feet with debris on the ground as you are trying to run on the treadmill. Throwup. No, the ground is aways free from any junk, and the people who work out here are respectful. After each use of the equipment, they are running to get a wipe to wipe down the machine. THANK YOUUUU. No slipping off the leg extension machine from the previous person's sweat. So, why 4 stars?? Well, after I work out I like to go shoot hoops after. Basketball courts were closed for 2 days straight. After the 2 days, they opened up again but with a limited time frame (5am-11am Mon-Fri; 7-10pm Sat-Sun). WHATTTTT?!?! I talked to the front desk lady, who explained to be that a 25ish year old man and a 17ish year old boy got in a fight during a pick up game, resulting in the limited hours. Why did management not just take away their memberships? Supposedly the city (since they own the place) asked for management to do so. Who knows how long this will be enforced, because the front desk lady was giving out names and contact info on who to complain to. All in all, this is a great place to get in shape and lose the fat. Gotta look good for the summer!!!

    So by the reviews I was expecting this gym to be disgusting, but I was actually impressed I showed…read moreup as a guest with one of my friends. First things first it wasn't busy and it was clean. I appreciate everyone cleaning their equipment after they work out. The gym is really nice. I was able to get a good work out with not too many people being there. I went around 9 PM and they close at 11 PM. That's the only thing I like going to 24 hour gyms just because I work nights. They have plenty of equipment and even a cycling class that you can take. I also saw an open dance floor and a personal trainer room as well. I absolutely love the sauna they have one in the women's restroom and men's that was the best part of my work out. It was super relaxing. I would definitely recommend a membership here. I think I'm gonna get one. 10 out of 10

    Since GM Ofibio took over the operation at this location, there has been a distinct downturn in…read morecustomer service. He fails to communicate effectively when group classes are being reassigned to different areas (usually smaller than what would be considered safe) and/or cancelled. He has never apologized for the inconvenience that he has imposed on the customers, especially during construction/renovation projects such as for mold removal and repair of water damage. As with other equipment in the main gym, some of the weights in the group exercise room need to be replaced. Also, it is not unusual to find bugs and hair strands all over the floor. Daily cleaning does not appear to be a high priority for Ofibio. Attempts to bring any of this to his attention is met with looks of disdain and tone of disrespect for bothering him. He threatened to close down the classroom altogether. As for the availability of group classes, he has replaced face-to-face classes with videos. An average week may have about 76 classes of which approximately 50 (66%) are on video and 6 will cost extra. This eliminates the need to pay professionals for their time and expertise, but it also eliminates feedback on technique and progress. Unfortunately, the video classes are rarely attended resulting in waste of space, time, utilities and license fees (costs being passed onto the customers). Streaming workout videos in the convenience of your own home may be a viable option. At this point, I can no longer give my recommendation for membership to the Copperas Cove Gold's Gym location. I was happy for four years before Ofibio's take over and will consider returning if he leaves.

    Awesome program! Before this I only ever went to the gym and did cardio and group fitness classes…read morebecause I didn't know how to use the weights properly or how to work out specific muscle groups to target specific goals/results. The program keeps me motivated because it's a group of women all with similar goals and Shauna there to kick your butt. There are monthly health checks with Shauna to see how on track you are with your goals. The program has helped me feel more empowered and knowledgeable about using a gym and following a fitness program. I've lost weight, gained more muscle tone, and found a new confidence in a gym environment.

    I signed up with Vixen because I needed a push to get back into working out. When I first started…read moreeverything was great. I felt pushed and I felt encouraged; I was getting weekly meal plans sent to me per our "contract" we were meeting at our scheduled times everything was great. However about two-three months in everything changed. It was as if I wasn't being taken as seriously because I wasn't going to compete. I stopped receiving meal plans, weigh in's stopped and the accountability that was there at the beginning wasn't there anymore.  Shauna had made it very clear when I first started personal training sessions with her that If I wanted to cancel a session I had to do so in 24 hours; if not I would lose my session. That is a common rule for most trainers, so I made sure that I did my best to cancel 24 hour ahead of time when I did need to cancel; I think I only gave less than 24 hours' notice one time in the approx 7 months I went. Shauna on the other hand canceled on me 7 times within a span of 3 months with barely any fair warning; many were either an hour or three hours before the session. Many times she would cancel on me on the spot when I had just drove all the way down to field house, however the last straw broke when she no showed on me two times within two weeks. I drove down to field house; waited for her to show and she never did. Only to be told via text that she forgot to text me; completely un-professional. She holds this standard of cancelling within 24 hours for her clients but I am PAYING HER and she can't even be professional enough to do the same. I was paying her for a service I was not receiving, she wasn't showing and I hadn't received a meal plan in months.  It was as if she just stopped caring about me as a client because she had other clients who were competing and bringing in money for her. I had emailed her and told her that I would like a refund because I couldn't continue to be cancelled on. She replied with "I am Not issuing you a refund I am sorry for any inconvenience. You are scheduled Friday at 1 pm we can do a make up Wednesday at 1". I emailed her multiple times to work things out however instead of replying back she went into my account and deleted PAID sessions from my account.  After multiple attempts to receive a refund from Shauna due to her lack of providing services I contacted the Better Business Bureau. She never responded and refused to cooperate with the investigation. I had hope that we could work this out and she would provide me a refund, honestly I thought when I sent her my request for refund she would be happy to refund me and get rid of me as a client; since I wasn't competing and she never took me seriously. Shauna currently has approx. $500 of mine that she won't refund, and has went in to my account and deleted paid session's.  Shauna is also very intense, which can be a great as a trainer if done properly except she comes off as a bully at times. I have personally heard her discount and talk about her clients negatively. She has pointed out people to me at the gym and talked destructively about them. She even brags about going up to people and shaming them in front of others; telling them they aren't ready for competition and that they have a long way to go. She creates an environment where you are on eggshells; always wondering what mood she would be in that day. When she would talk badly about others especially her own clients I knew that she had to be talking bad about me as well and that never sat well with me.  I do acknowledge that Shauna has done great things for other people, and her group classes are awesome. However I cannot support a business like this and will continue to share my experience with others.
