Avoid this Gym. There are better gyms in the same area for a better price and that offer way more. as my contract ended i was double charged and made to wait close to a month before i was credited back. The staff and management could be more considerate. Also, like someone else said, they are quick to respond on FB when some one asks how to join but never reply when current members ask questions about promotions or other concerns. AVOID THIS PLACE. read more

I've been a member of STX for six months now, and I can't wait until my contract is up! Within this short time, I've had several issues with the gym and voiced them, but none of them have been addressed. For one, vehicles have been broken in to in the parking lot of STX. On facebook, I asked what was being done to prevent any future break ins, but I got no reply. About a week later, another member asked on fb if she could get the current promotional rate when it's time for her to renew her contract in August. She also got no reply. Yet, anyone on fb who has questions about how to join do get very nice replies. After making a comment about this observation on fb, STX unfriended me. They don't like me or my questions, but they still love my money!! So unprofessional and immature! Also, their daycare policy is awful. First of all, the daycare itself is boring. I don't take my 9 year old anymore because she gets tired of sitting on a bean bag (not many chairs) and watching Dora the Explorer. I'm paying extra for nothing. I got reprimanded because apparently you have to pay $5 above the extra daycare fee you're already paying if you want to leave your child for over an hour. Mind you, if you like the classes, you're screwed because you have to be there at least 30 minutes prior to get a spot. There goes half your daycare time limit! You're screwed either way because even if you go for the machines, you can expect a wait for that too if it's after 4:00. Another complaint is that a couple of times, when the machine I'm about to use doesn't work and I report it, the staff is very rude and do nothing about it. So I'm not reporting any problems anymore. I just go to a different machine and remind myself that it's STX that will be liable, not me! Oh well!! read more

Stay away. This gym is so crowded at all times, you will have to wait to use every single machine, lift every single dumbbell and guess what: You will not have access to their aerobics studio with all the mirrors. I complained about this, was contacted by some managerial gatekeeper, and told that they supposedly caught some people kissing in there and so decided that the best solution would just be to make the fitness room unavailable to the members unless their is a class in there. In a severely overcrowded gym, this is a terrible solution, and I wish I could smear their image over every single site on the internet due to my resentment for hooking me into a 10/month contract for a year for a gym where really working out isn't possible, but I'll settle for the hope that this YELP review will severe them from a few member contracts, because they sure don't deserve any additional members for asking a low price in exchange for 0 value and a managerial staff that refuses to utilize their severely needed space because they caught a few people kissing in the aerobics room. read more

I would start out by saying this gym is the best around only because I reside in Weslaco. The low monthly rates and friendly staff are what makes this facility very competitive. If only those idiots at UFC wasn't so expensive, rude and without all those extra fees they charge, I would continue be their loyal customer. I will have to settle with STX for now until the other gyms spring up, and sense I must settle with STX I have a few complaints. I have a problem with guessing witch dumbbell matches with this other dumbbell without a cap. I have NEVER been in a gym where I cannot see all the weight numbers. Bad choice of these pro style rubber fixed dumbbells with glued on weight caps. The parking lot is TERRIBLE, always packed. You must get to the gym during the hours between 12 am to 5 am. after that, you're screwed on getting an optimal workout. read more

People please don't rely on these two reviews to make your decision. Sure, at the time they were written STX was not under good management, but that was in the past. Now under new management, it is a better gym. The "over crowding" problem does happen from time to time (I mean come on almost everyone who goes clocks out of work around the same time and students do finish their classes around the same time) but is hardly bothersome now. That mirror room is being utilized more, the employees are friendly, the locker rooms and showers are great, and now thanks to all the hype about the new Trufitness gym (that place truely defines the word crowded) next to it, most people are going there instead and now there's more room for new members to join!:D And the 24 hour access (except on Saturday it closes at 9pm and completely on Sundays) is a great bonus:) Their Facebook page is being managed more and honestly I can not really comment on the child care because I don't have any kids and I don't pay attention to that room. The pay by the month option makes thing a lot easier for new members to test the waters and if you want to take a specific class (like zumba or spinning) it can just be added to you membership as you like and cancel it when you want. Please don't fall for the supposed bad image due to some people's bad experience. Honest, it's a fact of life that people are more likely to comment on a service if it is bad than when it is good ( how many times have bad comments out shine good ones?). I've been a member for 5 years now and I don't regret joining. read more
