Honestly a great gym! The crowd that goes here is pretty great and overall a decent environment. Like that they have cardio in a whole different area then the lifting and machines not all bunched together. Great layout of the gym. Only thing I could complain about is I wish they had two smith machines instead of one. Sucks having to wait over and over for people to use it. And possible a few more leg machines, I mean there are 3 same quad extension machines could substitute one or two for a different machine leg wise. Other than that great gym with decent workout hours!

Changed my review to 5 stars based on owners response. For the price it’s well worth the price. Was originally 4 stars - appreciate the owner (or manager)’s attention and response.

No frills gym with a good bit of equipment so anyone from beginners to seasoned lifters and athletes can get in a solid workout.

The price of the gym is very good. But it seems that they take an actual fee and a fee to make sure that the equipment is maintenance. I don’t see that money going to equipment. Some of the equipment Is worn out you have your Tricep push ropes there on the last thread of the Rope .somebody needs to change that. You can get hurt like that. And it’s missing a shower in the men’s room some of us come from work and would like take a shower After the workout.

Great gym! The staff does a great job of keeping everything and located where it should be. The space is large so even when it's full there room do you. I joined a few weeks ago and took advantage of the new member personal training special. I did 6 sessions with Chris Harris and he is a great resource. He helped me dial in my training efficiency and opened my mind to several different movements. Highly recommended!!

Don't waste your money on this place. Poor customer service! I forgot my "machine wipe down towel" one time and did not have any cash to "rent" the $1 towel from the facility, and was refused the use of the towel. I advised I could bring the $1 to them on my next visit and was still refused the towel. Completely my fault that I forgot my towel and didn't have cash, but come on, to lose a loyal customer over $1, and one who's paid for training sessions in the past is a poor business model in my opinion.

I did a trial day a couple of days ago. Really really nice! Unlike all the other gyms I've tried, it felt like a gym and not a business. I am really out of shape, but I didn't feel judged at all. Bring your own cleaning towel though for the machines.

Small gym low price. I guess when you pay that low of a cost, the gym turns into a high school social club. They also charge $1 for towel use. For a couple of dollars more, you can go to a bigger and better gym - OneLife. I will say they kept the place clean. Only reason why they deserve one star.

After attempting to resolve payment issues (unwanted renew of contract) I was given the run around at every turn. I was told I could not cancel my account without coming in person, which was not true (they have without my ever coming in.) This issue originated November 24 2021 when I called to cancel only to be told that it wouldn't be continued and that I had nothing to worry about ( the original lie) Please avoid this business if you care for people who care or at least mean what they say.

So I went there in the morning you know cause I have a busy schedule later in the day and I was deadlifting cause it’s in my program. I did my top set and the owners wife came up to me and said I was slamming the weights. I was not slamming the weights. She’s came up to me multiple times in the past in a rude manner to belittle me about my lifting or anything I do. She’s done this to multiple people as well. She is rude and has no respect for anyone.

This is a very nice gym with a lot of awesome equipment, great atmosphere, and it is extremely clean!

My only concern is the lack of transparency/honesty of the staff when you sign up and sign your contract. I didn’t read my contract line by line, word by word, small print, front and back and now I wish I would have.
You will be paying around $100 in the first month due to the first and last months dues, your monthly due for month two, and an β€œannual fee” that is withdrawn after 30 days.
I called and expressed my concerns, after a few days I got a call from one of the owners who basically told me that I need to read contracts better and that the first individual that I talked too was an 18 year old β€œkid” and that I was too harsh and my language was too β€œoffensive” toward him.
This is a business, and if you have β€œkids” working, selling contracts, and taking phone calls they need to be fully aware of what they are selling, clear with their clients regarding fees, and maybe not answering phone calls if they cant handle an upset customer.

Great gym for the price. You are definitely able to get a great workout in. The only thing I observed while in that gym, there's some people that do not wipe down the equipment after use. Staff provides bottles all throughout the gym, all they ask of you is to bring your own wipe down towel. It's not that hard. So my advice, wipe down before and after. Other than that, Love the gym and hours.

This gym is kept extremely clean. The owners are always adding new equipment to their selection. I've been going here since 2013 and they have increased their selection of classes (never been in one). I wish they were in a larger space due to the classes in the mornings taking up a lot of the open area. You can feel comfortable, no matter your level of fitness here. I have lifted in gyms for years and I have yet to see anyone here who isn't willing to help if you need it. I wish they opened around 4AM, but that's just for personal scheduling.

On the smaller side as far as gyms go, but at $19/month price can't be beat. They manage to pack quite a bit of equipment into the space they have, with one room dedicated to cardio and the other to strength, but it never feels cramped.

There are no showers, but there are two change rooms and a wall of lockers.

If you have kids and work out regularly, they have a pretty good deal on kids room access.

If you're into training or classes, their prices are very reasonable and unlimited monthly classes may be purchased for a fair price

I had posted a review on here not long ago, and was very unhappy with the facility. Since than I have been contacted by the owner multiple times in an attempt to make things right. It has been expressed that the owner of this facility does want to run a good, honest gym, and seem to be very nice. The gentleman seemed to care very much so about the gyms reputation, and I can respect. I came back and chose to change my review in an attempt to express my gratitude to the owners for reaching out to me and making things right. If it weren't for the little hiccup before I would give them 5 stars for the customer service.

I cannot say enough about how pleased I am with the entire facility and the staff at Fitness 19. They are always very kind, helpful, and extremely knowledgeable. All of the equipment is state of the art. My personal favorite, the new platform! The layout of the club is very thought out, as they have a completely separate cardio room and also a LifeFitness section on the hardwood. I also really enjoy how they have the tires and the sled that you can use outside in the back. For everything that Fitness 19 has to offer you would think they would charge way more than $10.99 per month.

The gym may be adequate but their supposed policy of requiring cancellations in person is at best a nuisance in an attempt to put a hard sell on you to stay. After multiple harassing phone calls to my son demanding that he needs to cancel in person or via a fax (phone calls in which they were told each time that he had already canceled), they now call and say that they will allow him to cancel over the phone IF he provides them a credit card to pay $31.95 in late fees for a service he had already canceled. This after they already once allowed the balance to be paid over the phone and being told that service was being canceled. So you really can cancel over the phone if you pay them.
Must be rough going if you have to scrape a young man for the cost of a movie, popcorn and soda and threaten to send it to collections for a service he hasn't used for over a year.

I have been a member here for about a year and could not be more impressed with the quality of the gym. The gym is immaculate and the equipment is always clean and in good, working order. The complaint that I most often here from other members is that the gym does lack a shower room; however, the low cost of the membership more than makes up for this. Furthermore, if you are interested in trying the gym before you join they offer a one day trial membership for a low cost.

Both my wife and I joined this club around four months ago. She needed a place close enough to workout in the mornings, I needed a place to go that was close vice going to the base. It has been a great time thus far. Suggest adding a Sauna and more updated tredmills and elliptical machines. The staff is very curteous and love the option for keeping children as I've used this option five or six times. My son seems to like the playroom.

I signed up at Fitness 19 about two months ago and I have been very happy with it so far. I am there 5 days a week, and sometimes twice a day. The staff is knowledgeable and extremely friendly. I love the fact that in a couple weeks time they remember me and my member number. I hope they eventually expand the workout area and create a sizeable crossfit type space, that would be awesome, but all in all great place to be.
