A great gym, if you're bodybuilding, powerlifting, or just coming in for a quick cardio sweat,…read moreFitness World 24 has what you need. I came here on a short visit and got a day pass. The gym has two floors; most of the weights that I enjoyed using is on the first floor, while the second floor has more of the cardio type equipment, although there is an area where there is a cross-trainer and some light weights. They have several squat/deadlift platforms, so you know this gym is legit. Plenty of free weights, a few bench presses, and weight machines as well. I love the color theme here. It's probably not a big deal to most people, but it reminds me of the Marvel Ironman-red color, and I'm a fan. Locker rooms is located on the first floor, near the check-in, and everything appears clean and fresh. On the weight area, there are a couple of private bathrooms near the weight machines, so lift some weights, pop a squat, as needed, and then do some squats with no worry of anything popping out.

They have an exercise area and weight room. The exercise area has treadmills, ellipticals, and plenty of other exercise machines that have TVs. Also on the main floor the Y has a one basketball court size gym, three racquetball courts, and an aerobics room. On the second floor they have a karate room, swimming pool, and locker rooms. The swimming pool is decent sized and has a lot of lanes. The locker rooms have showers and a sauna.

Membership pricing is reasonable and for the extra benefits (ie coaching, guest passes, etc) it's a great value. I love that I can workout 24/7 and use whichever club is most convenient for me.

If theres more than a few people using free weights, u might have to wait to use the plates. Theres also plenty cardio equipment with tvs. The location is smaller than other gyms. I dont mind. I usually try to drop in when theres less people. They also offfer personal training- which im starting next week! Itll be with a professional female body builder. I like the quality of trainers that are available.

Aspen Athletic Clubs is a pretty cool place. It is relatively small (compare it to say an Xsport or…read moreLA Fitness), but it has everything I need, including an area where I can do deadlifting without anyone frowning at me, as they have a good section dedicated to powerlifts and crossfit. This gym has a decent amount of cardio machines, along with several squat racks (three of em) and a couple of pulley machines. For bench pressing, there's no conventional bench presses, rather, they have racks, where you can place barbell holders at and move over a bench so you have an impromptu bench press. They also have a decent amount of dumbbells. I really liked the crossfit area as they got racks to perform them silly kip pullups along with medicine balls and Olympic plates. They also have a decent padded section where you can do stretches. BATHROOM REVIEW: This is more about the locker room. Pretty decent, with no naked old men walking around air-drying their nether regions. That's great in my book. Sit or squat? Squat.... it's still a locker room :-P

It's a atmosphere that welcomes all levels of fitness types from serious body builders to the treadmill book readers.

Also people who pay their hard earned money for a membership and can't afford to do much else besides work and barely afford groceries can't enjoy nights at the gym on the weekends. I'm definitely switching to anytime fitness to get the most out of my membership. If your gym would stay open until midnight on the weekends I would gladly stay.

I also love the hydro massage beds. They have two beds and two loungers at this location. They also have tanning beds, a tanning booth, another booth and a couple massage chairs.
