I am a new member at this gym. I signed up a few months ago. I enjoy both the amount and variety of equipment that is available. There are enough weights and machines that you can substitute exercises easily if what you need is not available. Some areas are a tight squeeze and you have to maneuver around the equipment to get around. As a small person, this does not bother me too much, but it does bother some people. It is an open air gym as it has like garage style doors that stay open during warm seasons. So, on days where the air quality is terrible (from the Canadian fires), I choose not to go to the gym. It gets hot, but they do have industrial fans around the gym. I may not come during winter as I hate being cold and can’t imagine how cold it gets. I used to go to planet fitness, but the lack of equipment available there is crazy. This gym has a lot of benches so finding one for squat thrusts is usually no problem. There are lots of body building portraits all over the walls for motivation. I like that any purchases you make (i.e. protein shake) can just be put on your filed card.

Solid gym, equipment is a bit tight to get to get around. Music would be greatly appreciated and more mirrors. The pictures on the wall are the absolute best motivating factor at the top of the squeeze. If you're not stacked, jacked or tight do better. This gym definitely offers a serious workout only type of vibe!

Note: I do not belong to this gym, at least not yet.I found this place while cycling and decided to stop in. I spoke with who I believe is the owner. He was personable and let me take a look around. The gym was clean and stacked with plent of equipment, everything appeared to be in working order and newer. I didn't see anyone waiting on equipment. The membership prices seemed very fair to me. They also offer personal training.

By far the best gym in MD! Old-school vibes with great equipment including brand new cardio equipment and a lot of nice state-of-the-art lifting machines. If you want to workout with like-minded people who actually know what they’re doing this is the best gym to be in!

The only gym I ever go to anymore - the best atmosphere for people who want to better themselves, whether it be for better health/fitness or bodybuilding- the members & staff are the friendliest and most hard working people! The equipment is just as equally as awesome, the owner, is always bringing in better machines and weights for the members. 1000/10 would always recommend coming here

I am in love with this gym. The employees are so nice and very helpful. It stays pretty clean. Also the members all are respectful and it’s overall a very good atmosphere. The membership is also very cheap relative to the quality. Definitely recommend if you’re in the area.
