Farrell's eXtreme Bodyshaping - Ankeny North

Fantastic experience: I absolutely love the environment of this gym. Everyone holds you accountable in a positive way, and they offer excellent monthly and quarterly memberships! I began with a 10-week challenge, which I highly recommend as you have the chance to win $$ ($500 to $1,000) and receive incredible support from coaches on your form, diet, and overall fitness journey. I highly recommend Farrell's—Owners Terri and Jason are fantastic!

Fantastic experience: Super-supportive, I know I'm massively out of shape and the group was understanding and didn't make me feel out of place or less-than for being a 50-something academic trying to get into shape.

Fantastic experience: Great challenge so far, very supportive community!

Fantastic experience: Great workouts for both cardio and strength training exercises. Results are typical and instructors are very knowledgeable.

Fantastic experience: I absolutely love the family of incredibly motivating people that I have met at Farrell’s. It is a great workout that I enjoy going to every day because of the friends I have made and the wonderful instructors. I’ve lost a total of 20 lbs since starting my journey at Farrells.

Fantastic experience: Joining Farrell's in Ankeny has been very good for me. I wasn't keen on the whole group exercise class experience before joining, but can now say nothing but positive things about the Farrell's approach as executed at the Ankeny location. Everyone is friendly, instructors are excellent and the workouts are intense, fun and effective.

Fantastic experience: I just Started the 10 week challenge and I'm enjoying the gym and the workouts. I have been to alot of other group style gyms in Ankeny that were so focused on reps and how fast( but not focused on form and getting the most out of each move) and constant ( omg your doing so great you did a push up) I love that at Farrells the instructors are taking the time to teach you the proper form (so you don't get injured). Also everyone is very incurging but not in the cheesey go you style. I would 100% recommend Farrells to anyone looking for a group led fitness class.

Fantastic experience: I started my Farrels journey in 2015 (oh how the time flies)… Farrells is part of my daily routine. Every day you notice little improvements and then one day you realize you’re not the same person who came, you’re someone better… some days are hard but this community will lift you up, push you to succeed. No matter who you are you’re welcome here! Come join me at 6:30!

Fantastic experience: I love this place and all of the people in it! The instructors are motivating and awesome! The people in the classes are so supportive also. I love going every day and leaving feeling like I have accomplished something huge!

Fantastic experience: Been an instructor at this gym since 2017. I personally love the enthusiasm and encouragement from each member. It makes it so much easier to be successful in my journey.

Positive experience: Very inspiring!! Super fun and wonderful people!

Fantastic experience: Did the teen program and loved it. Great program and made some solid friends.

Fantastic experience: I learned about Farrell’s when I moved to the north side of Ankeny in 2010. I was post-final-baby-weight and nervous about even stepping foot into any gym because my shape was round and I had never been in a kickboxing gym before. The manager coached me through every step of my first class and encouraged and supported me through my anxiety. The people I’ve met at FXB have become fast friends. Seven years as a member and the coaches and instructors continue to challenge my physical form and encourage personal improvement. It’s a great place to workout!

Fantastic experience: I've enjoyed creating a healthy lifestyle through exercise at Farrell's in Ankeny!

Fantastic experience: Great atmosphere, coaches, and friends that keep me coming back!

Fantastic experience: Been here for 10 years, it’s like a second family. Good workouts, good people. The people are what keeps me coming back every day.

Fantastic experience: I came to Farrells a little over a year ago looking for a workout I’d enjoy, that would work with my schedule and keep me motivated to continue my journey. I stay here because I have found a FIT family that goes beyond a 45 minute workout each day.

Fantastic experience: Love Farrell’s. Tried it for something different since I like group classes and the instructors and people really care about you. It feels great when people know your name when you walk in the door and hold you accountable to keep you going . Makes working out fun and I look forward to going class!

Fantastic experience: Working out at Farrell's is my favorite way to start the day!

Fantastic experience: Great group of people to workout with! Lots of support in this community.

Fantastic experience: I started my FXB journey a little over 2 years ago. I would not be as successful as I am if it wasn't for the great instructors and great friends I have made here! It truly is a family and a community. I would encourage anyone to try this program, you will love it!

Positive experience: Not a huge fan of class setting I like to do my own thing when it comes to working out

Fantastic experience: I have been a member for 13 years and an instructor for nearly 12. Farrell’s is a great group fitness program that also creates a community amongst us all.

Fantastic experience: Great group of motivated people that will push and support you in the right direction.

Fantastic experience: Great program easy to follow workouts are fun and food plan is simple. All members are great and welcoming very good people involved in this program.

Fantastic experience: Love being a part of Farrell's! It's a very welcoming place to work out!

Fantastic experience: I can’t say enough great thing about Farrells Ankeny North. If you are looking for a positive atmosphere, inspiring coaches, and motivating instructors then this is your place! I love how they incorporate HIIT workouts for the bag routines and challenging sets for strength training. No matter where you are at with your Fitness this is a place for you.

Fantastic experience: I was a bit of a skeptic coming into Farrell's. My husband had joined earlier and loved it. I thought I would just join for the 10 week challenge to show him I could do it and then move on. I ended up loving the workouts and the results! The owners, instructors and fellow members make it a great place to work out. Give it a try, you won't be disappointed.

Fantastic experience: I was just over 50 when I started at Farrell’s just a little over a year ago. I thought I was too old and would have trouble fitting in. I have found that I truly love the workouts, especially the kickboxing! And there are so many friendly faces and people that are always wanting to help with your form and want you to succeed! It was a great decision and following the program I have lost the weight I wanted and I continue to lose fat and gain muscle! If you’re thinking about joining, don’t wait!

Fantastic experience: Love Farrell’s! I lost plenty of inches and body fat on my first 10 week challenge and joined as a member. The coaches and instructors are amazing - they genuinely care about you as a person and help you along the way without judgement. My only regret is not finding this place sooner!

Fantastic experience: It’s my second family. I go at 4:15 in the morning and it’s a smaller group and they hold you accountable. I needed a jump start after having my second child and I have seen amazing results. I’m so close to hitting my goal in just 5 months. It’s a judgement free zone and anybody no matter age or body type can do it!!

Fantastic experience: I am 4 weeks into the 10 week challenge and i am down almost 14 pounds already...i am 6' 8" tall and was 407 pounds when i started. Awesome instructors and coaches

Fantastic experience: Great group fitness environment for all fitness levels. Join a 10 week challenge and you could win $1000. Great coaches and instructors to help with your fitness journey.

Fantastic experience: I started in 2008. Best place to kickbox and I love how the resistance bands classes have evolved. We also have TRX straps and free weights now. The combo classes on Saturdays are fun. I've made great friends here. I like how the owners are trying to keep the cost down because they know there's a lot of competition in Ankeny. It's a great deal for what you get. For new 10 week students, there is personalized coaching and at the end of the 10 weeks you have a shot of $1,000! For our returning students there are regular challenges to keep us motivated and engaged. We also have an in body scanner with an app to break down your percent, muscle fat and percent, body fat, etc.

Fantastic experience: Great group fitness environment for all fitness levels. Join a 10 week challenge and you could win $1000. Great coaches and instructors to help with your fitness journey.

Fantastic experience: I have been doing Farrell's for about a year now and I feel so much stronger then ever before! The instructors are motivating!

Fantastic experience: I did my 10 weeks at North Ankeny FXB in October of 2015. I met my goals and joined as a fit member. I have tried many programs and joined various gyms and this is the best overall experience I have ever had. The nutrition program is easy to understand, easy to track and easy to customize to foods you enjoy. You eat every 3 hours so you rarely feel hungry or deprived. Farrell's provides the education and support you need to stay accountable, which is huge for me. The focus on kickboxing for cardio is both fun and consistent which allows you to build on your skills with optimum potential. It is also safe as good form is taught and encouraged. I remember doing a bootcamp (at another gym) where I was expected to flip tracker tires on one day and run 2 miles the next. It was unpredictable, unsafe and ineffective for me. Long story short... I LOVE Farrell's and the North Ankeny team of instructors are GREAT!

Fantastic experience: Great clean facility! Love the early class times!! Get my workout early and be done for the day. Farrells's is a way of life. Life at Level 10!

Fantastic experience: I am in week 1 and I am amazed by the encouragement, direction, and structure of this location. The coaches, trainers, management, and owner are top notch. Well run facility with awesome people.

Fantastic experience: I love farrels! It is a great workout and there are lots of people to keep you accountable and help you with any questions you have! Much better than a regular gym membership!

Fantastic experience: I was looking for a program I would stick with, and I found it at Farrells! I was very happy with my 10 week results, the workouts are fun and challenging, and the people are fantastic!

Fantastic experience: Great full body workout! Only 45 minutes. -Jody K.
