I’ve attended the cycle class regularly and usually have a positive experience. However, during a recent class with a substitute instructor (EM), I was publicly singled out over the microphone for briefly modifying the routine (standing instead of sitting). The instructor suggested that participants who weren’t following directions exactly were being “disrespectful” and told me I needed to “do what I say.”
I was fully participating and not disrupting the class. Not all physical limitations are visible, and group fitness environments should allow reasonable modifications without shaming members.
I emailed management to share this concern but have not received a response. I hope the gym considers reinforcing a more supportive and inclusive coaching approach.
This gym is big and honestly has an awesome setup. There are multiple areas with cables, benches, and machines, so you have options for where you want to workout (great if you’re like me and like to switch it up). Plus, there’s lots of new equipment (i.e. glute builder & pendulum squat 😍)
Specifically tho, the staff is impeccable. Everyone is super personable, helpful, supportive, and just straight up cool. I love this location I’m legit here every day and feel right at home. Overall it’s a super positive atmosphere and I’d recommend this location to both beginners and experienced gym goers. The vibes are great, even with the members
I’ve been a member of this gym since it was Gold’s Gym. This is the only gym I use, and that says a lot. Over the years, it has consistently been a place where I feel comfortable, motivated, and taken care of.
I especially want to give a shout out to Alec at the front desk. Ever since he started working there, he has made such a positive impression. He greets me by name when I walk in, which truly makes the experience feel personal. He’s always friendly, professional, and has a smiling face. That kind of customer service makes a big difference and sets the tone for a great workout.

I’m been going here for years and at one point, moved away to Franklin/Suffolk, which had me end my membership but after a few months of trying other gyms or working at home, I had to come back. This is the gym culture you’ve dreamed and hoped for as a beginner gym goer or an advanced level. Not only due to my 5am crew but the staff are also best part of the experience, Jamie especially! Ask any person who comes in 5am, we love and appreciate her so much.
