Whatever you do, do not sign up for the personal training here. It’s a bit deceptive, so beware that personal training is actually offered through a separate company called Elevate Fitness Coaching. I can go on, but for now I want to save someone else from the experience I’ve had. You can find qualified, professional personal trainers elsewhere in the area and not get robbed in the process.

I’ve been working out w max fitness for 3 years & it has been the best. They promised new equipment & we got it. Everyone up front is always so nice when you walk in. Love it here.

I have been in gyms for 41 years and have my personal trainer cert. Most of my years were in tons of gyms in Atlanta and never have I experienced such madness. Ever since they bought this location (and Bobby Jones location) from Gold's, they've not had any air conditioning working... either they're not getting it fixed or they're trying to save $$... either way... NOT our problem! They have huge ceiling fans that aren't working either.. Its cooler outside than in and with the Augusta heat, that's saying a lot. It's a shoulder to shoulder sauna in there and I have complained to management for two summers in a row but nothing has been done to rectify the madness. I have emailed as well. Nothing in response. If you want a sweat shop... this is your gym!I mean... we're all there to work hard, burn calories and sweat but let's be reasonable. Everyone is complaining and miserable. Insanity!All that said... the staff (who do not have a say in our comfort) are super friendly.

A little disappointed that when I joined the gym I told them I chose them for their childcare unaware that it's only at specific times and during the time I can go to the gym it's not open at either location. I went to cancel it unaware that I signed a 2 year contract and that it would cost over $200 just to cancel. Which I take partial blame for not fully reading everything before I signed anything, but they really need to start stressing the fact that you signed a multiple year contract and that there will be a hefty cancelation fee if you try to leave before that contract is over. The lady at the desk was really nice though.

The staff here is always so kind. Bob, Craver and Melissa for example are always in the gym hyped up for the day and engaging with members. Since Bob has become GM, the gym has already changed tremendously! It is super clean, always organized & new equipment has been added! I love the vibes and highly recommend getting your training in at Max Fitness in North Augusta!

Good, clean facility with a lot of available equipment. Sauna and locker room are always clean and tidy. They’ve reupholstered a lot of benches. A few treadmills are broken or won’t turn on but there’s usually plenty available! Great gym for the price

After exercising at home for 3 months it was time to take my fitness goals up a notch. I needed access to weights/equipment and childcare at a reasonable price. I met with Richard and I’m so glad I did, we decided on a family membership. 👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 Employees have been very friendly, proactive and professional. My kids have a good experience at childcare. We miss Ms. Shantel(sp?), who left just after my kiddos got attached to her! 💔 But the caregivers are all nice. Sometimes cardio machines are broken, but there’s so many available, it’s not been an issue for me. The last time I brought a broken machine (recumbent bike) to management’s attention, it was fixed within a week. 🔧 The bathrooms are nice & and the sauna works! 🔥 Fellow gym members are polite and friendly, it’s just a good atmosphere. I don’t feel self-conscious as a woman in the weights section. My husband has started training with their personal trainer, Craver, and we’re really satisfied with everything! 💪

Best place to get your workout in. They have child care for you if you need it and plenty of room to get the job done. I come 3-4 times a week and never feel unwanted. Always polite and welcoming.

The gym is clean and the front desk is friendly. A lot of equipment is broken, just like the Aiken gym, which is kinda annoying.Most of the child care workers are wonderful, but there is a younger girl who literally is on her phone and NEVER looks up. My children said she doesn't even talk or watch them. That worries me, so I try not to go in the afternoons.

Positives about this gym: the people are great and it’s nice to have access to free weights. There is a lot of opportunity to reach your goals because it offers a variety of different spaces for your workouts. They also offer various classes and training in house which is great for people new to working out. The daycare facility has several options for your child including an indoor playground, a movie room, toys, and etc.Negatives- A lot of equipment is broken, there is a lack of some equipment (only one deadlift platform with no time limit), and a bunch of talk on fixing equipment with no action.With the daycare, I had a wonderful experience at first. The employees in there were incredible and my child loved going to the gym. Most of the employees now are very kind, friendly, and loving- my child very much enjoys when they are working. One employee never speaks (even when you speak directly to her) and sits behind the desk in the daycare. She never seems to actually watch the kids, just sits on her phone the entire time. I have heard SEVERAL stories about children climbing up on top of things under her watch and she doesn’t notice because she’s on her phone.The bathroom in the daycare facility has been broken for about 3 weeks. The solution to this issue is to pull me out of my workout in order to take my child to the bathroom rather than gettingit fixed. I have gone to the gym 5 times this week and been pulled out my workout every single day, some days multiple times.At this point, I am considering moving to another gym.
