Save your time and money stop there today to sign up for a membership because membership includes all classes and I really wanted to get in some physical education classes doors lock nobody there to answer questions & says you need to call to make an appointment in order to sign up totally ridiculous you lost a customer because I went somewhere else that actually had someone there to sign me up right then and there go to Best fitness in save your money from this place

I went there to sign up this morning and the lady was rude. I tried to get in to sign up but you have to be a member to get in. I was standing at the door and one of the execisers open the door to ask me what I want. The lady started yelling on the person for opening the door. I told the lady I was there to try to sign up, and she says that you have to make an appointment to sign up. she says I can sign you up right now, but I told her I;m not interested if you treat your clients like that.

I've been due to review AJF since I've started back in June 2024. But today was the reason I got to this review. Here's the TLDR review and my story below it.

TLDR: Nice clean atmosphere. Very good gym for all levels from beginners to advanced lifters. They have plenty of useful equipment (power racks, punching bag, benches, etc) as well as a decent amount of your usual gym cardio machines, etc. A little pricier than most chain/commercial gyms but all for good reason and really not much more than your "black card". They are truly 24/7 everyday of the year. Secured key fob for entry. Never really a wait for machines. None of the silliness you sometimes find at other gyms. I really am glad my girlfriend and I started coming to this gym. It fits my needs and lifestyle. And they're upgrading facilities soon! Thanks AJF for everything πŸ™

Come check them out with a tour!!

My story:
I haven't had too many interactions with one of the owners, Joe. The few interactions were enough to know he's a good guy who wants to provide a clean, safe atmosphere for gym goers. But Denise, is why I got to this review today. She is also an owner I believe and manages the gym most days I'm there. She does a great job keeping the place clean, managed, and all with a friendly personality and a smile. All my encounters have been super positive and fruendly. But today. Today, she saved me big time. I live about 30mins away and can sometimes be forgetful, forgot my fob. She still allowed me to still get my workout in despite couldve had me go get my fob. What was stressing me out big time became a small, yet impacting gesture. Most will find it silly. But I wanted to shout her out. Thank you Denise! You're awesome 😁

Love this gym. It’s never really packed somehow and it’s always clean. You don’t ever have to wait on machines for too long if someone is using it. There’s also a private room that you can workout in that has a projector with tons of classes to do. It’s also open 24/7 which is great. You can come and go and not be bothered at all. The owner is also very nice as well.

Good equipment, bad management.
I’f you’re regular user, paying your membership maybe it’s fine, but when it comes to something unusual like you have to cancel membership, then you got some troubles, you have to pay fees, you didn’t know about. They refused to acknowledge what they did wrong, just stopped responding on my emails. Super close minded people, want just your money.

This was something that happened years ago at this point, but I just remembered it today randomly.

I was a member at this gym for awhile, was friendly with the owner when I would see him there and vice versa. When you sign up you get this "one time free guest pass". Ok cool, it was raining one evening and had nothing else to do, so I brought my girlfriend at the time and next thing you know here comes the owner (and his wife) screaming, making me go to the office. Apparently they have a sensor, that alerts them at home, how many people walked in per swipe. I didn't think I was doing anything wrong, I wasn't trying to be sneaky, I thought I was using the one-time guest pass. Apparently there is a stipulation that it is only to be used when there is staff there. Ok, well I didn't know that, honest mistake. So instead of trying to just resolve it (I suggested I will pay for the daily use fee for her & we would leave) but owner said no, she has to sign up for a whole membership plan. Well she lived over an hour away, obviously that wouldn't make sense for her to have a membership plan. Wound up just leaving and revoking my membership, was completely soured by the ordeal. Now that I'm a little older and been to more gyms (I travel for work so quite a few of them), I realize now how badly the owner handled the situation. I get he's trying to run a business, but to come screeching into the parking lot on a Sunday night at like 8/9 PM, come into the gym screaming at me in front of other gym goers and my girlfriend at the time, and then being completely unwilling to realize it was just an honest mistake and be understanding is a bad look for the ownership. None of the gyms I've been to in the years since have I had an issue with ownership, or vice versa, and they've all been more than reasonable/understanding when it comes to unique situations.

Despite this whole ordeal, the gym (at the time at least, haven't been back since) is nice and it's better than any chain gym you could go to in the area. Pricier, but it's worth it for the clean, riff-raff free gym that isn't ever too busy you have to wait for equipment. Just make sure you double-check any fine print stuff or you'll make an honest mistake and have to go the principal's office!

This place has good prices and a nice low key atmosphere. It has some live classes and a selection of video on demand type classes. Plenty of different cardio options, free weights, machines, and "functional" fitness type equipment. Not much fluff here (tanning, sauna, etc). The staff is very friendly and down to earth too. Open 24/7 365 days a year.
