The biggest red flag was when I went to the mens locker room. A guy was fully naked and masturbating... Yes, masturbating. He didn't stop when he saw me. I left. I want a place to workout, not a place for sex.

Parking lots…read moreare always full, and too many transients outside - you'll most likely be worrying about your car the entire workout. Their open gym requires you pay for entrance for that day, but I've never been to an open gym where YOU HAVE TO BRING YOUR OWN BALL!!! ISNT THAT WHAT THE GYM IS SUPPOSED TO DO, PROVIDE THE BALL?! The saunas are always running and NEVER cleaned, the accumulated sweat from everyone that uses the sauna is what makes it smell so bad (definitely has to be what caused the mold that other time). Why can't they have another location further south like Graham or something?

My relationship with GRIT CITY FITNESS AND PERFORMANCE is a life changer…read more I have never felt like I was part of a fitness community before coming here. I have never felt like my effort was meet with results before coming here. I am 37 years old, and this year is the first time I've understood my body's needs and how to give it the best possible circumstances for health and wellness. I use Jeff's virtual Team Training, Serena's Superhero You and nutritional coaching. I'm forty weeks in to recording of nutrition and I don't ever want to stop habits, nor my relationship with Grit. The virtual training is more than just watching a workout. You can workout live with the coaches... and Jeff is ridiculously good and concise with remembering/recommending substitute movements for your limitations or injuries, and very resourceful with helping you utilize the objects you already have in your home. I have many many many public Facebook posts about this place if you're still on the fence about investing in yourself. Oh - and the generous outpouring of support and communication through several channels (fb,insta,email etc) is 24/7. They have really really found a way to personalize your health, while still keeping you part of the group.

All of the instructors and staff at The Fit Lab 253 are absolutely phenomenal. I felt welcome from…read morethe first day I walked in. They offer classes are geared for all levels, with right amount of challenge. The cues are easy to follow and visual guidance is also available when needed. Honestly, being cued correctly and being corrected when I'm out of alignment or in the wrong position have kept me from injury. Reformer Pilates has changed my life, I love it! I took a few private lessons with Amanda as my intro to pilates. She and the lessons were so amazing, I've been hooked ever since. When I'm in town, I come to the studio fairly consistently and my body has been transformed, completely snatched. I feel my workouts all over, every atrophied muscle has been awakened. Every instructor does something "special" in their class, please try them all, you will not be disappointed. I highly, highly recommend coming here.

The place is clean enough and there are TVs, fans, free WiFi, and water fountains with water bottle fills. I will note that the water bottle fill station has needed maintenance for a while now so I stopped using it.

I don't think COVID has anything to do with being closed on Sunday, pretty sure it's being used as an excuse. Lots of members will be joining other facilities that are open on Sundays.

The entire team here is incredible and the members are awesome as well. We have both done personal training (my trainer was Kam) here and learned a lot and we go to the Sunday class most often . Ascent is both welcoming and accommodating to folks of all identities and abilities and of all sizes. As someone with concerns about environments that can foster an environment where counting calories and weighing in are encouraged or emphasize is put on size, Ascent is the exact opposite. Ascent is a wonderful unicorn place where people can go just to learn how to better move their bodies and grow stronger and find victories that have nothing to do with size- like hiking longer distances, or having less back pain, or being able to lift more. They always offer alternative exercises to meet people where they're at which is super refreshing. They also host so many great events and series classes like queer inclusive self defense. We drive from a fair distance away because the community here is so much better and they have a mission you can't help but support. By far the best collective group of humans I've met since moving to Washington and that is such a testament to the owners Luca and Katie!

The…read moretrainers are down-to-earth and supportive, the environment is friendly and encouraging, and the workouts kick my butt every time. The focus at this gym is functional fitness, so you do a variety of exercises each time you go--including crawling, get-ups, weights (and body weight exercises), lunges, etc. I also love that the trainers will give plenty of modifications as needed, as I'm limited in shoulder mobility due to an injury. Their main format is small group classes, but personal training and open gym hours are also available. Which works for me, became I'm way more accountable when I'm in a class anyway! I've gotten noticeably stronger since I first started, which has helped me not only in my work and at home, but with my self-confidence overall. Exercise really is the best self care. Thank you, Ascent Fitness!
