I was really impressed how he understood my strength limitations from a neck injury that I suffered in 2008. I have been interested in joining a gym, but didn't like the congestion of the major chain gyms. With major gyms you get pressure sales by the staff, so I appreciated that Michael didn't do that. Just by our nice and causal conversation, I knew this was the gym for me. The $50 monthly membership fits perfectly for my budget, so I was sold.

Amazing equipment, amenities, everything.

I work at a health club in Santa Cruz and have always wondered what it would be like to try out a gym I don't work at. The equipment was pretty nice and it was not busy at 3:30pm. It was easy to do a day pass and the other members kept to themselves. They have nice locker rooms (bring your own lock) and seem like a great place over all :) there are no classes but if weight lifting and cardio are your interests it is a solid place to be.

The actual facility here is great and the staff is fair- it does seem that a lot of them spend…read moretheir time on their phones and are not super attentive. My main issue with this facility is a specific group of members that have started to come in. There is a large group of people who come in to work with a husband/wife team of independent trainers. The trainers are rude and take up tons of equipment that they do not actively use- like they are trying to reserve it for their future use. When you ask them if you can work in or if they are using something they are rude and look at you like you are insane for even talking to them. This group of people act like they are the only people in the gym and completely lack awareness and any etiquette. They leave weights on machines, don't wipe anything down, and leave huge messes in the restrooms. My other issue is the amount of recording that they do- the gym has now banned the use of free standing tripods (great) but now they are using other pieces of equipment to prop their phones up on and record their workouts. On top of that- there is no regard or awareness for someone in the back of their video. I know that I have been in the back of their recordings, which I do not want to be, and have asked them multiple times to move their phones or not record and they are just rude about it and start talking crap. I have taken these issues to the front desk staff and management. No one does anything about it. I brought it up to the girl at the front desk this past weekend and she basically told me that because they are bringing in so much business they can do what they want. If that is the case then this business clearly does not value all of its members equally.

(I have decided to leave the name of the individual that I interacted with tonight out because they…read moreare young and inexperienced) I was at the gym tonight during PEAK hours. I think I got there around 6 PM. There was a line 3 deep waiting for two fly machines. There was an individual that was actually putting their phone down on the fly machine and then walking over to the barbells across the gym, doing a set and then coming back to the fly machine and doing a set. The three of us were looking at each other like does the world revolve around this person? Clearly the answer was no. I asked this person what they were doing...and they said I'm supersetting. So I asked this person, how long were they going to superset? They said, I'll be here a long time. Really? Not during Peak hours. Sorry. When I went to change the weight on the fly machine, they got in my face and "management" and I do use that term loosely, intervened. Rather than telling this person that it was PEAK hours, and there was a line 3 deep waiting for the fly machine, he asked the other person on the fly machine how many sets they had left? Then he turned to me as well as the two other people that were patiently waiting and said..."he's almost done, perhaps you can wait"? So let me paraphrase this for all of you. During PEAK hours when there is a line of paying customers waiting for a machine, it's OK to save it while you go off and do a totally different exercise...again, while we all wait patiently for a customer that has zero respect for their peers. Ok. Got it. To "management"... and you know who you are. You're talking to a guy that's owned two really large software companies. You'd know who they are. I say that not to impress you, but I say that because I have a little experience in "management". It's a really hard job. It requires you to make very tough decisions that are sometimes not favorable. But some people are not cut out for management. I don't think that's you. Next time make the right decision. The tough decision. I think you've got it in you. Besides, I'd rather not head over to Planet Fitness...wink-wink.

I never would've thought the day would come where I'd have to write this review, but after today, I…read morewill no longer attend this specific City Sports. This has been my preferred gym location since 2022. Although I have visited several other locations, I consistently choose to drive 20 minutes to this facility because of its spacious layout and the level of comfort I feel while working out here. Even when I have noticed that two to three stair masters were out of order or certain machines had ongoing issues that I previously reported to staff, I continued to attend this location. Today, while using the assisted dip machine near the aerobics room, I noticed that the pole on the left side became loose during use. I immediately approached the front desk to report the issue, with the manager Johnathan present. I expressed my concern that this malfunction could have resulted in a serious injury. Unfortunately, there was not an ounce of sympathy or even apology at the very least from the manager which raised concerns about how guest safety issues are handled. I handled the issue in a calm and graceful manner, but if it was another guest, I wondered how the outcome would've looked.

Workouts never feel rushed, and there's a strong emphasis on doing movements correctly and improving steadily at your own pace. I also love that people of all fitness levels are welcome here. Whether you're new to working out or more experienced, the environment feels comfortable and encouraging. Mike's ability to pay individual care to every person elevates the whole experience. The programming is really well thought out too, with routines changing every 4 weeks so things never get stale. Great atmosphere, great people, and just an overall great community. And whenever Rex, the actual owner of the gym shows up, its a blast

I've been attending FIIT60 for over a year now, and it has honestly changed my life. I was never…read moreparticularly athletic, and after giving birth a few years ago my back pain really ramped up. A PT suggested I do strength training (nothing was really wrong, I was just weak), but I was worried about hurting my back further by doing things wrong. So I looked for a place with instruction and coaching, and found FIIT60. Mike has been such an incredible help! The first few months I needed a LOT of guidance and suggestions, but he was always there to correct my form an explain things clearly so I wouldn't hurt myself. Starting as a complete beginner was really daunting, but over time things became easier and I not only did I feel stronger, but my back hurt less, and I had more energy in general. I started attending more classes and after nearly a year I felt completely different from before. I'm still improving and learning because Mike knows how to increase the difficulty and make modifications for people of different skill levels. I've got long terms goals I want to hit, and I feel like I'm moving toward them! The mood in the classes is great too, in addition to the health benefits (which are many!), it's just a nice expereince and I look forward to going to class. Everyone there is really supportive and friendly, and Mike maintains an upbeat and positive environment. It's a very family friendly place too, you will spot the occasional kid chilling in the corner or even a baby in their stroller. I cannot recommend this place enough! If you're a beginner like I am then you're in good hands. And if you have more expereince, then there's plenty of room to grow here.

I've had a few different memberships at varying gyms across the bay but didn't have one for a…read morecouple years as a I worked at one. I chose City Sports due to 24 completely going down hill since I used to be with them a decade ago, and Planet Fitness doesn't have a pool. As a swimmer, this is my main form of cardio. Nate was wonderful helping me sign up and answering all of my questions I had. He's excellent with his customer service and making the customer feel heard. With my signing up, I was given a free personal training assessment and trial. Kiran was knowledgeable and impressed with my strength. At the end of the session, I was sat down with Alan, who I am assuming is the personal trainer manager. As somebody who used to sell 30+ cars a month when I was in car sales, I know the first thing about sales is to listen to the customer. Repeatedly, I was cut off from saying anything to Alan about my background, what I wanted and what I needed if I wanted to consider personal training. I barely was able to think about an answer to a question he would ask. I also recognized the typical car sales tactic of, "Which price works best for you?" I still decided to hear him out and see if this aligned with me financially. The prices are quite high, so I apologized as I felt like I was wasting his time then and I understood what it was like being on his side of the desk. He stopped smiling at me and started shuffling the papers. No, "Thank you," "Let me know if anything changes," etc, nothing. Just complete silence and an obvious look of annoyed rejection. I was a bit confused so I said, "Um..." and he dismissed me with a cold, "You're free to go now." I asked if I could take the paper with me with the rates on it and he said I could take a picture of it. Classic car sales maneuver! But this is for personal training, which should be more insistent on the customers needs due to their health. My experience with Alan has ensured I definitely won't be signing up for a personal trainer in the future, probably at any location with City Sports. Overall, the gym is pretty clean and the machines are in working order. The pool is VERY clean as well, which is surprisingly hard to come by in most gyms nowadays. I don't get service inside though and even with the WiFi, I still can't connect to YouTube to do mat Pilates in the aerobics room :( TLDR; Nate is great, Alan needs some training on his customer service and learn how to be a better sales person. Gym is clean but needs help with cell service/WiFi.
