This class is perfect for people of all ages and fitness levels who want to get a water workout. The benefits of sports inspire movements such as swimming, running, kickboxing, martial arts, and dance with the added resistance of the water. This class is great for muscle conditioning and for people looking for non-impact exercises.

This low-impact class is a great workout for people of all ages and fitness levels. The water resistance provides an extra challenge, but you won't even notice because you'll be having so much fun dancing to the Latin and exotic beats.

BodyAttack is a cardio workout that is inspired by sports and is all about improving your speed, fitness, strength and agility. The group dynamic is what makes BodyAttack so great. It is perfect for anyone with moderate fitness levels. The moves are simple and you don’t need flawless coordination, so give it a go!

This workout builds flexibility and strength while leaving you feeling centered and calm. It not only works on your body, but also your mind, leaving you feeling refreshed and without stress.

Fantastic experience: If you are looking for an indoor basketball court, 2 racket ball courts, a swimming pool, steam room and sauna, tanning beds, in-door track, cardio cinema with a different movie playing every day, yoga, step, cardio, and cycling classes, free weights and machines, great trainers, in-house physical therapy, smoothie bar, and more....then this is the place for you....for about $30 per month ($1 per day). If you don't want any of these things for this price, or you think that you can get a better deal somewhere else in this area....then....you are crazy.

Fantastic experience: I dont really understand these reviews. This gym is great. More variety to exercise than any gym Ive ever been to. Front desk staff has always been nice and helpful. Cardio Cinema, workout classes, pool, racquet and basketball courts, weight lifting etc. If you sign up for a gym, its common sense that you are going to be in a contract. We signed up the other day and they clearly stated that it would be a two year contract. Ask questions if you dont understand something. They are there to sell you a membership, so you cant be offended at them for 'selling,' that is their job. :)

Fantastic experience: I have belonged to gyms for most of my life, and this is the nicest facility I have ever worked out in. The equipment is great and maintained in top working condition. I particularly like that the place is clean and the ventilation is good. The track is large and removed from a lot of activity by being on the third floor. I have been surprised at how much I have enjoyed things like the cardio-cinema. I like that there is a stretching area near but separated from the weights; as simple as this is, it did not exist in other gyms. The layout and atmosphere encourage me to stay and exercise. I am really surprised by the reviews that are negative; my experience has been great. Good price; straightforward sales; great place with lots of options for whatever you want to do.

Fantastic experience: I laugh at these reviews ! great gym , very clean (steam room could use some TLC). It IS a two year contract , however if you move within out of 50 miles of a golds gym your contract will be terminated at no additional charges or penalties. If you sign up at any gym (that has the same opportunities as golds) you will have a contract. If you don't want to be in a contract , then go to your apartment gym . Staff at Golds Forest is by far the friendliest. They acknowledge you as you enter AND exit. Their child care is also the best I have experienced.

Fantastic experience: I have absolutely no idea what these people are talking about, I just did the survey that I received through my email and I will repeat exactly what I said, 'The management speaks to you on an amicable personal level instead of a condescending professional level where you feel as though you are being looked down upon instead of being a welcomed customer. Any time that I walked in to the place, even if I didn't approach him, the store manager would smile and wave. Every time; not an exaggeration, seven days a week. Unfortunately, due to my relocation to Lexington this past month, I haven't been able to frequent the gym as often as I'd like to. I called him four days ago a payment discrepancy (which was totally my fault) and he was still as friendly as always. Never a complaint... even the protein shake staff (which are contracted in by a separate company) fulfill any customer satisfaction standard for me. Maybe these customers who are complaining were just plain rude and got what they deserved. To that? I say good riddance; the less rude people going to a place that I frequent? The better.

Fantastic experience: Positive: Communication , Professionalism , Quality I can truly say, Muv Fitness has changed my life for the better. My body looks totally different from when I 1st started, The Trainers are Awesome, The staff are so professional. I recommend anyone that wants to take a fitness journey come to Muv Fitness!

James Darwin 1 year ago

Positive experience: I recently canceled my membership, and I caught frustrated when I thought no one was responding to me, leading my spouse to leave a negative review. However, I missed an email they sent- my bad! Some MUV employees understand customer service, others no so much. The classes, especially MUV force, are good deals compared to CrossFit. The coaches are all friendly and pretty good. Just make sure you fully understand your contract before signing.

Fantastic experience: Best fitness gym!! Love the pool, sauna, treadmills , steam room, hot tub,, because virus some amenities are closed . But when it was 100% functional this gym its the best all way around.

ARMR PUPLUV 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: I had a membership concern that I brought to the front desk at the local MUV Fitness location in South Carolina. The front desk associate recommended that I contact their corporate office and provided a phone number for me to call. I called the phone number and left a message for Karen. Karen returned my call the very next day. Karen listened to my issue and was very understanding and made an extra effort to help me and work out an arrangement that was satisfactory to me. I am very pleased with the quick response and friendly customer service I received from Karen. When you join a gym you don't expect that you will need to speak with the corporate office to address a membership or other concern, however, I am very pleased with the exceptional service I received. If all their MUV Fitness locations operate and provide this top notch customer service then I would feel very comfortable saying that is the type of gym that anyone would want to be a member. Sincerely, Mike Dolan

Fantastic experience: This gym has everything you need! Cardio equipment, free weights, weight machines, a pool, a sauna, showers, etc, it is great! All the staff are supper friendly and helpful. I can’t remember the instructor of the spin class, but her class was killer! And it is always clean! 100% would recommend this gym.

Whitney Desiree 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: This is the best MUV location in my opinion. However they should feature the Zumba teacher Allison!!! This place has very friendly and accomadating staff plus a daycare that actually ensures the kids enjoy themselves. My kids always ask what gym we will be attending and if its Forest Drive they are estatic. Nice clean enviroment INCLUDING the bathrooms! Locker room pool and jacuzzi are great. My only complaint would be no towels. C'mon now!! A pool/Jacuzzi duo with NO TOWELS!!?? Other than that great place that I highly reccomend!!

Fantastic experience: Lots of equipment, ample parking (I've never had an issue finding parking at peak hours) and beyond friendly staff and members. I left that gym everyday happy that I went and with a smile on my face because of everyone's kindness, STRONGLY suggest being a member here.

D 5 years ago

Fantastic experience: One of the best gyms in the downtown area. I looked around and can't find any gym that meets my standards besides Muv. It's HUGE, and I've never had an issue with parking/equipment being used. I like that the group classes are offered for free; most gyms I've found around here are either only class or only cardio/weights. My boyfriend likes weights and I like classes as well as the treadmill on days I can't make a class so this is the perfect gym for us.

Amanda Rose 6 years ago

Fantastic experience: My favorite gym in town. Very extensive weight room, friendly staff and offers a lot of classes. The pool, hot tub and saunas are also on point.

patricia young 6 years ago

Fantastic experience: They all the amenities I love, pool whirlpool, sauna, stem room and so much more

Kevin Phan 6 years ago

Fantastic experience: The gym has possibly everything you would ever need. There are plenty of weight machines, free weights, and cardio machines. Also there is a pool, indoor track, indoor area carpeted with turf, tanning beds, and an aqua massage chair. The locker room is spacious with plenty of lockers, showers, bathroom stalls, and steam room. The only downside of the gym is that it closes on most days at 10 pm. You're out of luck if you ever need to get on your late night gym grind.

Brandon Maiden 6 years ago

Fantastic experience: With the lack of quality gyms in the cola area, muv actually does it right. VERY fair price with everything you'd expect from your gym. The only thing that would make it better is if there were more locations in other states. It was nice having a membership to a national gym since I travel so much.

CBK Recruiter 6 years ago

Fantastic experience: Ok gym I go there for the pool thanks to this place my two little ones know how to swim. Been a member for 7 years I just keep the membership for my little ones but it's time for me to get in shape I think

Mckenzie “Otter” Stairs 6 years ago

Fantastic experience: Nice gym, equipment is kept clean. Really love the cardio floor. Extensive weight selection. Locker room is really clean and aesthetically pleasing. If I could change anything, it would be that it wasn't always so crowded, but I know that is completely out of their control. Still, it's my favorite gym in the Columbia area.

Victoria 6 years ago

Fantastic experience: Clean, great selection of classes, affordable. Locker rooms with lockers, dry sauna, wet sauna, pool, hot tub, all the machines you could ask for. Best gym I've been a member with.

Fantastic experience: No words can explain how I feel about this gym!!

Victoria Pike 7 years ago

Fantastic experience: I love this gym and am surprised at the negative feedback. I have been a member at many different gyms in many states and the nature of the beast is that there will always be typical 'gym problems'. There are several tips I follow to avoid minor annoyances: I don't go to the gym from 4-7 pm. I have a flexible work schedule and can avoid the after work crowds. I understand not everyone is able to do this, but going during the day greatly reduces stress and crowding. Its almost completely empty. I always find the staff at Muv Forest Drive to be very friendly and responsive when I need assistance. However, I don't go to chat with the employees so in passing they are nice and courteous. One of my favorite things about this gym is the classes. I love the yoga, Zumba, and Spin classes and I've heard the BodyPump is awesome as well. The instructors are well trained and there are different personalities and flavors for everyone. The machines and equipment are bountiful and well maintained, at least for my purposes. I'm not trying to enter a body fitness competition so I use them casually to keep myself toned. I'm not sure about the perspective of a serious lifter. The locker rooms, pool, sauna, and dry sauna are kept clean and neat. In conclusion, this gym has all the amenities for a screaming low price. Maybe I'm just used to big city pricing but where else can you find a 3 story gym with free classes, a locker room and pool for 40 a month?? Overall very happy.
