Just when you thought the parking couldn't get any worse, this month they added MORE no-parking…read moresigns against the only remaining fence where people could safely parallel park up front. This comes after they repeatedly reduced up-front parking quietly throughout all of last year, first by reserving two spots at the front for EMPLOYEES (why should paid employees park in front of customers???) and then later by blocking the corners and some of the fences from being parked on for no good reason. Up-front parking at the new location is now beyond unacceptable for a gym that costs $70 per month, and it's a huge betrayal to long-time members like myself who have been coming here for years and remember back when there was plenty of up-front parking at the old Brickhouse. Now we have to drive 5 minutes further past old Brickhouse and (if you park in the overflow lot which is RIDICULOUSLY far away) you walk another 5 mins to the gym so you waste an extra 20 minutes round trip for every gym day. That's an hour per week wasted if you workout 3x. Who decided this was a good choice for the new gym??? The inconvenient location and parking far outweigh the larger size of the gym, which btw still doesn't have enough barbells for all the racks and still has outdated equipment in disrepair. I have tried to be patient and give them time to work out their childish quibbles with ETV over the closer overflow parking lot, but I'm not sure how much longer I will wait before canceling for good. Shame on Brickhouse for choosing this location knowing that the parking would be terrible and then deliberately making the parking even worse!!!

Despite a couple of periods where there have been issues with broken equipment & the water fountain being down--during which time free bottles of water were available to everyone--I feel it's an excellent value for the money. In addition, it's open 24/7 & they've just upgraded all the cardio machines & added new several pieces of new equipment including 3 multi-function squat racks. Finally, this location is on the larger side, it has great parking, it's clean, and most of the staff are friendly and helpful.

*UPDATE* Owner contacted me via Yelp and said that climbing is no longer offered at this gym, so…read morethis review is probably no longer applicable. ---- We went there for the rock climbing. Apparently the current owners aren't rock climbers but took over the gym from the previous owners who were. There's a lot of neglect in the climbing area, but apparently the owners are still invested in the climbing and are still planning on investing money into the climbing side of the business. The walls are plywood, the pads are busted and worn out, and some of the routes are stale. That said, the setter(s) (looks like there might just be one or two) do a good job, the holds are good, and the walls have a lot of interesting features. You can definitely get some good climbing in - especially if you stick to the incline or curved section (the flat walls are a bit neglected). We didn't try the routes section, just the bouldering cave. You're not going to find another climbing option in the area unless you're a member of USC (and from what we were told they don't have a great climbing gym either). Go give this place some money and help convince them rock climbing is a viable business in this area.

I've been lifting in the Columbia area since the mid 1990s and have found two non-private gyms that…read moreI like. This is one of them (the other closed 25 years ago.)

Good mix of clientele from teens to old pharts like me, from folk just getting started to serious lifters. Lots of parking, good location.....

I came across their website, which was very clear and informative about memberships and staffing hours. It sounded perfect for my needs. I signed up for a month-to-month membership. After going there for a couple of weeks, I know this was the right choice: * Jason and Wendy are very down to earth and have created a great place to go work out * A good selection of treadmills and other cardio equipment * Extra fans set up in the cardio area. If you've ever run 15+ miles on treadmill in a gym, you know the fans are a huge bonus * Space and equipment for post-run stretching * Lots of free weights and machines for strength training * Water and hydration drinks available to buy - very reasonably priced * Very clean * 24x7 access for members I wouldn't go anywhere else in the greater Columbia area.

It is one of the better 24hr gyms I've been to... it has free weights (including kettle bells), machines, multiple squat bars, TRX bands, and even a crossfit rack downstairs, and all of the standard cardio equipment (as well as punching bags and even the JACOB's LADDER) upstairs. It has a loft style feel to it. There is one shower in both the male and female bathrooms for those wanting to workout before work or during a lunch break. There are 4 TVs upstairs but cable has not been installed yet (they're working on that). The peak hours are usually M-F 4:30-8pm. I think it's a great little addition to the booming main st!

The cardio is upstairs and offers treadmills, ellipticals, bikes, rowing machines, and even a mountain climbing machine! There are punching bags upstairs as well. TVs are upstairs and music plays throughout the gym. Downstairs there is a free weight area, TRX area, and machine area. Literally everything you could need! Weights belts, boxes, and all the attachments for the wire! Love this place and so happy we found it!

I signed up for hotworx about a month ago…read more Here is my review so far. Pros: - sauna classes - you burn and sweat more. - private sauna for class videos or your own workout or cooldown. I rarely have someone in class with me. The sauna seats 3+ - Staff is nice -Weight area Cons: -Hidden cost: Sign up is easy and appears reasonable, but lots of hidden cost. This is includes sign up fee. If you want to to do iso workouts you need to purchase a mat and towel from them (100+ cost), bands cost extra (12+), water cost, hair ties cost, renting requirement is 5 dollars -Weight area privacy: I wish there was a private area for weight or some partition to have partial privacy. It's in the open so people pass and wait for classes to start. -Variety of class videos: there is not a lot of variety in videos. I tend to see the same video. It's fine because I play music but I would love variety and the instructor doesn't seem to be sweating even though they should be in a sauna like us. It would help to see them do what we do. Overall, it's going good so far. I plan to continue to try. I enjoy sauna and pairing it with workouts make it better in between my gym days.
