    had an excellent experience at the gym. Riley at the front desk was incredibly professional, friendly, and helpful. His positive attitude and attention to detail made my visit outstanding. Employees like Riley make a real difference in the overall experience.

    I’ve been going to Fitness World for a while now, and I have to say that Franklin is one of the best staff members there! Every time I walk in, he’s super friendly, professional, and always goes out of his way to make sure members feel welcome. You can tell he genuinely enjoys his job and cares about creating a positive environment for everyone.

    I really enjoy this gym. However today ( nov.9th) when I visited the gym and I found out my lock got cut, so yes I was understandably upset. I went to talk to the person at the front counter and he explained that apparently there’s no over night locker use, and I received no apologies and all he said was it’s all in your membership agreements, I didn’t feel like I was going to keep arguing so I went did a quick a workout and left. Fast forward after my work out I talked to the person who I spoke to previously, I apologized to him if I was coming off as aggressive and told him my point: When I signed up for the gym, I have asked the sales representative specifically about locker policy. He told me I can bring my own lock and leave my things at the locker over nights, which has been something I’ve been doing since June when I first signed up for my membership. I’m a manger myself and I just think this is not something that should be happening. It’s not their fault for cutting my lock which I understand they’re following the company policy, however, I do think this is a reflection of the management at this location didn’t give staff the training they deserved. Not to mention pretty much 90% of the time when I walk in, the front desk staff were either on their phones, or too busy chatting with each other and ignoring people who walks in, except the person who singed me up for the membership, who actually is nice and friendly. So from manger to manger, I do wish the management in this location can provide more training to your staff.

    Their free 3 day trail is a scam they tell you to come in to activate it and when you’re there they’ll tell you that it’s not valid and you have to pay $20 for it
