Fantastic experience: awesome plac

Fantastic experience: Awesome gym. Staff are excellent and very knowledgeable, friendly and helpful. No contract decent prices no annoying sales pitch, just a honest gym. The machines are well maintained. They have a wide variety of equipment, I really like the barbell selection, they have a modern rubberized set and a classic round head barbell set. Lots of power racks and benches. They allow chalk and even provide it. Lots more specialized equipment behind the counter simply ask for it. Nice cardio room. Great AC and lots of fans. Bathrooms are clean and brightly light with a good shower, nice tile. The patrons are very friendly, rack their weights after use and wipe down the equipment, and will give you a spot.

Fantastic experience: One of the best gym's around

Fantastic experience: I love the barbells and the comradery.

Fantastic experience: Great place to work on strength conditioning! Offers cardio options, as well. Good selection of weight machines, LOTS of free weights and even a full size squat machine in the back! Everybody I've met here has been nice and the 2 guys that run the place, Jimmy and Big Steve, are super nice. Hardcore body builders frequent this place, but don't let that intimidate you. People just starting out, women and adolescents come here, too- and aren't made to feel uncomfortable. I've even asked questions of the staff and customers and received great, in-depth explanations. It's a good value at $30/mo. with unlimited visits ($6 one visit/$20 wk.). This place is one of Louisville's hidden gems!

Fantastic experience: Love this place! Definitely a no-frills gym, but that's what adds to its allure. Very little wait time for the equipment and a wide variety of free weights and machines, instead of a monopoly of machines like in brand name gyms. Polite staff and patrons as well!
