Today the club re-opened since closing in March. As expected, Social Distancing guidelines were…read moreprominently posted on the front door. Club goers cannot enter without a mask; and they must maintain a six-foot distance between others. Following County protocol, 30% capacity is the threshold for operating the club. After a personal trainer took my temperature, she bombarded me with many questions. Example: Have I had or have I been around anybody who has had any signs and symptoms of Covid-19 in the past 14 days? Hand sanitizers and disposable masks were available. The pool, whirlpool, showers and sauna were closed. Surprisingly, the cafe was open for healthy shakes and snacks. I enjoyed my workout on the treadmill. It was the best workout that I have had in years because the pandemic has made me appreciate the value of an indoor workout. I no longer have to worry about being lost on a trail, like I did a few months back at the Connetquot River State Park Preserve. Nor as a single woman do I have to fear for my safety while doing a solo dawn or dusk walk outside. I can just come to LA Fitness. Love it here!!!

Our daughter Heather competes for Special Olympics on the Ironmen Powerlifting Team. Not too long…read moreafter she began participating, we realized she would need more one on one training if she wanted to perfect her skills. Luckily we were referred to Shawna at Blue Collar Barbell! Our lives are forever changed!!! Anyone who knows a person with special needs, knows that things are not always as straightforward as they seem! Shawna thinks "outside the box" on a weekly basis, and has brought Heather to new and unbelievable heights to her powerlifting career! More importantly, she and her Special Olympics coaches, have helped Heather to be a more confident, caring, and compassionate individual! She has morphed into quite an amazing person! She grows stronger every week! We are so fortunate to have Shawna in our lives! My husband and I are learning new skills every week as well! It's truly a family affair! Thanks so much Shawna for your continued patience and perseverance, and for creating our gold medal hopeful! ( Heather started her powerlifting career at age 41! She recently deadlifted 300lbs! )

Smithtown closed this past week, so I have been going to Farmingville…read more When walking on its clear it caters to Cardio equipment with 4 rows of equipment taking up about 40% of the gym floor. I found the gym dirty as I watched the cleaning attendant walk by scattered water bottles on the floor. I found a lack of ab machines and limited machines that are standard in other gyms like upright curling stands , ab machines, bench machines. For the size of the gym the equipment is very limited. Lastly, I have never seen a barbell rack in such dissarray in my 41 ys attending gyms. The weights are non existamt at best. After inquiring with members I was told this is normal. I just couldnt find two dumbells that matched if at all. LAFITNESS you need to do better. Ive been a member for 13 yrs at various sites. This is the worst.

This gym gets 3 stars as a "hardcore bodybuilding gym". It's kind of like going into a 90's time…read morewarp, in a good way. Pros Old school bodybuilding equipment and plenty of it. The stuff is spaced out well enough that you're not bumping into things or tripping over anyone. Some gyms try and cram too much equipment into limited space. The equipment is arranged by body part as it should be in a serious BB gym. I like that it has 2 separate complete dumbbell areas with full racks of dumbbells. I like that there is a separate room just for squatting. "If you're not squatting, don't come in here" that's something you'll only find at a bodybuilding gym. This gym has the AMT precor machines for cardio. For me, It's the best cardio machine to burn calories- most gyms have the eliptical machines that just spin like a hamster wheel. Parking is easy and the location is close to main roads. They are open later than most gyms if you have to train late. I never find it crowded, but I go later after peak hours. I don't know what it's like right at 5:30 on a weeknight. The WiFi works and is reliable They have a sauna that works. It's good but on the small side. Sometimes the door gets left partly open though and it may not be hot enough if you didn't check the door a while beforehand. Pretty much all the members are training, there isn't a lot of sitting around on equipment staring at phones, or people standing around in your way talking the whole time. Cons It's really windy in a lot of areas with the huge industrial warehouse style fans going full blast mounted right overhead. I don't like wind blowin' on me when I'm training hard and my clothes are wet. These are fans designed for a large high ceilinged space, but the blades are spinning only 4-5 feet over your head. I feel like being in wet clothes and standing in a stiff wind is a good way to get sick. The wind gives me a headache. It's not good. They should at least turn them down to lower speed. I would actually add a star if they would run the fans at a reasonable speed. The locker rooms are nothing special, just adequate. If you're a germaphobe you may not be happy. But fancy locker rooms are not what this gym is all about. The dumbbells are never in order, usually all mixed up. I don't like wasting time hunting around for a matching pair of DBs when I'm ready to do my set. The members do seem to reasonably good about putting weights away though. There's no water fountain to refill your water bottle. If you drink all your water you will have to buy more. If you came up training during the "high intensity era" of the bodybuilding 80's and 90's, you'll probably like this gym a lot. If you want more of a commercial health club/chain type gym with a lot of classes and amenities, or you want a gym with a lot of "fitness chicks" in tiny carefully selected outfits checking themselves out in the mirrors all the time, there are plenty of other choices right nearby that will be a better fit for you. For what I do and am looking for in a gym, it's 3 stars for me.
