There is old school and cutting edge equipment for all training types. I live in Simpsonville SC and train at this gym every time I come to Charlotte. In fact, 10 years ago I'd travel here every weekend just to train legs as I haven't found any other gym in the southeast that has the shear numbers of leg equipment that this gym has available. The gym is so large and has so much equipment that there is seldom any waiting to use a piece of equipment. This gym is a "Don't Miss" if you train in Charlotte.

From signup through cancellation, the experience was consistently poor. The signup process was unnecessarily difficult. You cannot sign up online or over the phone and must come in person. I arrived during hours I was told a manager would be present, only to find they had left early, requiring an additional visit to complete enrollment. The gym charges $150 per month per person, with additional costs for lockers, an extra month (extra $150) due on signup, and a facility improvement fee every six months. Despite the price, there is no coat rack or place to store even a jacket. Communication is "you must pay an extra amount for lockers each month" even though lockers are framed as an optional amenity. Charging for lockers in the first place is grubby. Every gym I've attended in the past includes them for free. Pool access is advertised. The pool is actually pool access passes included in membership to the Omni Hotel pool, we were told it was to be opened fall 2025, it has remained closed. This was communicated after signup. The equipment itself is fine, but there is no water bottle refill station, and the water available specifically says "don't fill your water bottle up". It's a gym. Who wants to use a small paper open top cup when working out. Bathrooms are often not clean. If you're coming in in the afternoon for workouts, the gym maintenance and cleaning happens then, so expect some vacuuming and hammering happening most days. But my primary issue is the staff experience relative to the price point. Front desk staff are often disengaged. A trainer instructed us to re rack weights that we didn't use. When we told him they were there before we used the machine he communicated "clean them up anyways". I rack weights when done using them. For $150 a month, if another gym member leaves weights behind, and this is noticed by the staff, I'd expect gym staff to care for the cleanup of other members weights left behind. And especially the first time, just unnecessarily hostile and unfriendly. There are many more similar interactions like this with staff. After I canceled my membership and requested my wife's remain active, a manager approached her requesting credit card information, the implication being "don't forget to pay" in a way that felt inappropriate. This is acceptable at a lower priced gym. Again, it's not what I expect at this price point. This is a premium priced gym with a good location and adequate equipment, but the service level does not match. I'm switching to another gym in the area.

Located in the NoDa/Villa Heights neighborhood on Davidson St, it's a great spot to take a class. The classes start every 10 mins with constant rotations that allow you to jump in and keep moving. Parking is available in front or in the rear of the building. I would suggest Sweat 440 to anyone looking for a great 40 min workout that will show results!

That's exactly how it goes, 3 exercises, 3 sets and 4 sections. 40 mins of work but the format makes it go really fast. I love that the flow is steady too. Classes start every 10 minutes so there is a constant flow of people ahead of and behind you, and the gym always feels full. The trainers keep you motivated too. I've seen plenty of trainers in my visits, but Moth is the constant. She has pushed me from day one and it's the kind of motivation you need to make it through a tough workout. Music playlist is always good and they have a variety of equipment in rotation - sleds, TRX, benches, bikes, medicine balls, skiErg and more. You'll find that there are upper body, lower body, core and full body classes each week but the workouts change daily. Parking is in the rear of the building.

MADabolic is a fantastic gym! I've been on a gym tour using Classpass lately and stumbled upon…read moreMADabolic and absolutely fell in love with this gym!! From the moment I walked in and went to the front desk my experience was top tier. Carol was there to greet me and check me in. She was extremely kind and helpful. She asked if this was my first time and she was amazing from the very beginning. She gave me a lot of great info before the class and essentially broke everything down so I understood what to do and what to expect. The best part was Carol continuously helping me throughout the workout. It's been a very long time since I've worked out in a gym and I genuinely appreciated her so much!!! The class itself is a HIIT circuit training type class. You rotate from station to station and do different workouts. The music is loud, but not too loud, and is always a great playlist. Just how I like it lol. I love that you can go from kettlebell workouts to body weight workouts to boxing and so much more. It's a very non traditional type of workout and that's great because it's always different. There's also a great gym community. Other people in the classes are always friendly and helpful. It's really just a great gym community all around! Very happy I discovered them and really enjoy working out here!!!

I did not know what to expect, but they definitely made you WORK! You start off by doing a couple of warm-ups, and then the coach takes you around to different stations and demonstrates your workout in each station. Then you go off and start at whatever station you want and from there you go and take turns in between each station. I love that it's a total HIT lift workout. You do everything from weights, boxing, bicycles, and regular running. Completely loved the circuit vibes from it and the coach. I believe his name was Trey. He was AWESOME! he made sure to come and show you the correct way of doing the workout and just keeping the energy going. From the music, so the instruction. This is located in Noda, and they have a few parking spaces in the front but as well as parking lot towards the back of the building. Definitely enjoyed my time here.

Before I met Daniel (owner of Edge Performance Training), I thought I'd tried just about every type…read moreof workout out there. I'd tried power lifting, endurance training and triathlons, crossfit, even athletic conditioning at the local YMCA. I've always worked out; I was just really bored with the usual set routines and classes. Daniel completely changed my perspective on training and the way I work out. He puts together the toughest and most unique training workouts I've ever been through. Ever trained like an MMA fighter? Ever trained using only ropes, bags of sand, or flipping a truck tire end over end?...I hadn't either. Edge Performance combines cardio with functional type movements that are more natural (and useful) for my body than simply lifting a barbell. Daniel is always evolving and changing the workouts which means my body continues to get stronger and feel better.... But the best part is that I love working out again!

Liz the co-founder welcomed me and was very pleasant, she asked if it was my first time and registered my information. Afterwards she took me on a tour of the facility, I must say I loved how they decorated this place! It's not your typical gym at all. Very clean, green, white and cooper! So refreshing. Afterwards I joined the everyone that had arrived for the Friday fitness class. The music was great and the sun was shining bright through the 5 large windows. The class was intense, but just the push I needed! I typically am not much of a sweater no matter how hard I workout. But today that wasn't the case lol, our instructor pushed us but made sure it we went at our own pace. No weights, 100% body workout, you against your body. One of the guys in the class said, "I usually run about 5 miles a day, and this doesn't compare this was intense but I liked it!" Another person said she wasn't sure what to expect but watching everyone else work hard pushed her harder. Overall I throughly enjoyed bloc. and plan to return for another workout next Friday!

You are greeted by the sweet girl at the front and she gave us a brief tour of the space. There is a large workout room, cubbies to store your belongings a stretch area and a co-working space. Bloc isn't the type of place where you go to work out, talk to no one, and leave. They really are working hard to instill the importance in community. They offer free summit coffee for these needed a cup. They want you to stay around, hang out and enjoy the space. That was a really cool and really awesome new concept for me. Coming from DC and NY all the exercise places are machines built to get you in and get you out fast. They aren't meant for hanging out and mingling. I really like this about Bloc! The work out was TOUGH. My girl friends and I went together and we all work out with a trainer and couldn't believe how great the workout was. It was set into 5 "stations", 3-4 rounds, done in an EMOM (every minute on the minute) timing. We did body weight exercises, conditioning, cardio, and boxing. Talk about a total body workout! Jamie was really sweet too - and an amazing trainer. She really worked the room to build up the energy and provide support. I will definitely be back!

I stopped by recently because it was convenient and brought a guest with me. Before doing anything, I asked the woman at the front desk how the guest policy worked. She didn't really explain it and instead just asked for my guest's information. I assumed she was simply checking the system to see if my guest had visited before. I stepped away for a moment to check whether the court was crowded, and while doing that, something came up that required me to leave earlier than expected. When I came back to the desk, I told her never mind and that I needed to leave. She responded, "It's okay, I sent the receipt to your email." That caught me off guard. I assumed it was just confirmation of entering my guest's information, especially since I thought guests used to be free (which is why I asked about the policy beforehand). When I checked my email, I saw that I had been charged $20. The issue isn't the money, it's the lack of communication. Before charging someone, the process and cost should be clearly explained. I've never had issues at the other locations I visit, so this felt like a one off experience, but it's enough that I probably won't return to this location.
