Crunch Fitness - Arlington

I really like it here. The staff are always nice and helpful but Marcus is my fave!!! He is always ready to greet me in the early morning and his evening classes are bomb. His energy is so high and his personality is as amazing as his dance skills. When you go make sure to take a class with Marcus and tell him Toya sent you!!!

Crunch Fitness in Arlington is the best gym in the area! I left a popular gym because I didn’t feel as welcome like I feel at Crunch. When I first sign up I noticed the Zumba classes were offered (which I highly recommend) because I danced all my life. I checked out all the instructors they had a nice vibe but honey……….this one Instructor MARCUS S. just gives me so much energy that I tap into my younger days as a majorette. Worth the Wait so why Wait! Join Crunch ARLINGTON you will not regret it!

I joined a couple months ago and decided to cancel recently. Everyone working there was so nice. I do believe you get what you pay for and here if you expect to get a discount gym membership, also expect that the fine print will come back to bite you a little. My issue is not at all with the employees but more so with the schedule of fees, increases, the 30 day turnaround when you need to make changes to your account. I was “invited” to do a member sign on or welcome thing when I joined. I quickly realized that the verbiage surrounding that was designed to get you into buying personal training. I felt a little pressured to add this to my membership as if I was being up-sold. They offered me a discount but I needed time to think about it. I know they are trying to reach sales goals while “helping” people reach their fitness goals. I just didn’t need the added pressure, it was off-putting. The whole way that crunch goes about it is a little deceptive. I do not blame this on the staff at this location but rather on the company structure as a whole. Moral of the story: pay attention, do your part before you join and read the fine print so you won’t be disappointed later on. If you’ve ever flown spirit airlines… you’ll know what I mean when I say joining crunch for me was like flying spirit vs. American or southwest.

Best workout classes!!! When I say this gym is everything is mainly because of fitness classes by coordinator Marcus! It is my motivation to get into the gym to burn calories in a fun way after working from home all day. Marcus is welcoming to everyone, on time, amazing workouts, and wonderful music. The gym itself is clean and friendly staff but so is planet fitness. What makes me and others go there is the class instructors and environment they create for us to burn energy and calories in a fun way!

I’m in love with gym primarily for the class instructor Marcus!!! He honestly makes working out fun and a challenge that makes you want to continue to keep coming back. He’s incredibly energized and makes you work hard even when you want to quit! I have definitely seen progress in my body since going to his classes regularly!!

I absolutely love this gym. They have a variety of classes to chose from and the instructors are such great motivators. MARCUS SHRUBS keeps me in check with my daily workouts and is the reason why I keep coming back . My grandson loves the daycare facility, which is another great benefit.

I shifted to Crunch from Planet Fitness shortly after Crunch opened. The primary reason was because they offer childcare at certain times but I soon figured out there were several more benefits. The amount and types of free weights was a game changer to achieving my strength training goals, the staff are all incredibly friendly, and my daughter loves the childcare area. Speaking of the staff, Marcus is always there in the morning to greet everyone with a smile. It’s clear that he genuinely cares about the members. My wife did personal training with Jamaica and saw huge improvements with physical strength and confidence. I also did a couple sessions with Jamaica and learned several ways to improve the way I move from her. Everyone is great but those two have gone above and beyond for me and my family. Of course, there are a ton of people at certain times but that is to be expected of a gym that makes their memberships affordable. I have the best luck going early in the morning. Thank you for being great, Crunch team!

I joined crunch at the time of their grand opening. I must say the environment is nice and there’s a variety of weight zones and equipment. My favorite part is attending group classes. Marcus is AWESOME! He pushes me in every class and makes it super fun. I look forward to going every week because it doesn’t feel like a typical workout. We can sweat, laugh and do it all over again the next day.

I only go to this gym for Marcus, one of the fitness instructors. I don’t like working out. I was at a cheaper gym but came to Crunch for the group classes. I went to one of Marcus classes and I have been hooked ever since! He is amazing! He makes working out fun! He encourages you to push yourself but not too aggressive like other classes I have taken. As long as they have Marcus teaching classes, I am a faithful member!

I checked out Crunch when they opened to have an idea of the place and possibly join. I love the new equipment with TVs and admired the nice variety of equipment to choose from for every workout. At the time, the second level was still under construction but it appears to be for additional cardio when its all done. Its a nice view of the floor from the 2nd level.The locker room was smaller than I had hoped with not enough lockers on a super busy day. Its definitely one of the smaller locker-rooms I have seen. The shower was clean of course being new but the warm temperature was luke-warm when the dial is on "hot"- could possibly be the one I used that day.I tried out the hydro-bed that was nice and similar to Planet Fitness. There are no saunas at this gym that was bit of a disappointment because I like to sit and sweat a bit after my workout and hit the showers after.Overall its a nice gym but for me, they come up short on a few things that I consider - sauna (not a must but would be nice), flexible payment plans (monthly, annual, prepay etc) and small locker room during busy times may feel a bit cramped- of the 3, having flexible options for payment would have sold me to join.
