The Edge Fitness Clubs

After reading the reviews, I thought I would write and address some of the things I've read.People that work there: I've found that everybody that works there is nice.Overcrowded : Sometimes, what really gets me is when people hog the equipment. Either using two or three machines going from one to another or sitting on the bench on the phone.Equipment : There are a lot of minor things wrong. ripped grips or worn pads on the machines. Still the things work for the most part. I'm not sure why they would let that stuff go. It's a small price to fix and I think makes the gym look bad. Still, they work, I guess.Signing the contract : The salespeople are trained to sell. You have to be an adult to join so, take responsibility and read the contract. No different that buying a car. They want you to read it on the computer screen, don't. Know what you're agreeing to. I hate ABC so I pay up front for a year.ABC Financial : The worst company I've ever dealt with. They make it impossible to talk to someone. It's hard to complain when you have no access so I guess they win. I would never give them my CC number.If you want to go work out for about 20.00 a month, this is a good value. Most of the people working out with you are nice, you can make some friends and stay in shape. The employees are nice and helpful. For the most part, the equipment works. I've been a member for about three years so, I must think it's OK.I hope this revue helps someone

You will be solicited by phone and by email with no options to unsubscribe because the Edge doesn't respect your wishes.The Edge also doesn't respond to equipment issues that you report. They just dont bother maintaining anything that isn't 100% broken. For example, one of their treadmills has an intermittently defective heart rate monitor. I assume that's not important enough for them to fix, so they don't bother. It works about half the time. Two of their other treadmills do not increase in incline if you set them to. For example if you attempt to incline from 5%-15%, the treadmill is about 50% likely to remain at 5%.I enjoy my time at the gym but I've come to understand that it has a business model that cares about its bottom line more than it cares about irritating its members. I paid cash for a year in advance. I suspect their business model relies on upselling extra training services and their retail products. I'm probably costing then more money than its worth by being a standard member. That's the only reason I can think of that they won't stop emailing me despite my many requests. They probably want me to stay home!If that doesn't bother you, then everything else is fine. They do a good job keeping the men's locker room clean.

This gym is inadequate for someone interested in serious strength training, as evidenced by the fact that the trainers have their clients doing "fluff and pump" (i.e. isolation/machine work, "functional" fitness, classes, etc.) They only have three squat racks despite having tons of floor space; the gym I normally train at has 12. Moreover, when I was here, someone hogged a rack for--get this--25 sets, which took over 2.5 hours. He would leave the rack for minutes at a time to go do something else and then return, all the while not allowing anyone to use the rack. The gym should amend their rules to prevent such behavior, or look into purchasing more racks. I will not be returning.

Great gym for about $20 per month. Hard to beat. The staff is excellent. Qualified people with great personalities. Only issue is that there is inadequate parking. It's very difficult to find a spot on weekends in the morning. Were told when the gym opened that more parking spaces would be added later, but that never happened.

Great Edge location. They have amazing group fitness instructors. It's always clean. Very friendly, helpful and knowledgeable staff. There is also a theatre room which is unique.

Dave W and his team at the Edge in Trumbull bring customer service to a new level. They are always willing to help with anything I need. And personal training with Greg was one of the best experiences I've had working out. He was flexible but pushed me to be my best self. He was friendly and motivating. The Edge Strong classes really took things to a new level for me so that I could reach my goals. Having friends in class helped me stay focused on getting there every day. Yoga with Julia is my new happy place. I go twice a week for both strength and meditation and it has really balanced me out. Overall a wonderful experience at the Edge Trumbull!

The club is always consistently clean. The staff is always friendly and energetic. The manager Arthur, helped me multiple times and treated me as if I was one of his good friends. The energy in this gym is awesome and I'd recommend it to all my friends and family no matter what level of fitness they're at.

I have been a member of this gym since the start of 2016. I couldn't be happier there!!! The staff is great and always friendly. I've taken classes from several personal trainers and they all strive to help you and create a fun atmosphere during the class.I have been training with Amy for a few months, and she has taught me everything I know about working out! If you are looking for a trainer with drive and determination to help you reach all your goals, ask for Amy! Knowledgeable and experienced, Amy has a passion for what she does! She gives her clients 110% every time she sees them- I highly recommend her to anyone and everyone!!!

The Edge fitness club in Trumbull has been my dedicated gym for the past 3 years for several reasons. The primary reason being the knowledge and attitude of the entire staff. I trained with Greg Nichols for only a few months, and in that time he changed my body and gave me the know how and secrets to keeping my new physique on my own. He is a true joy to work with and will push you to your limits! Can't recommend him enough - thanks Greg!

I have been a client of the Edge in Trumbull for 2+ years. Never started working out until I was in my sixties.Have worked with three trainers over this time frame and all have been supportive to assist me in reaching my goal for weight loss and a better, healthy body. My current trainer is superb, pushes me to my limits and beyond. I walk out of the gym feeling energized. The management and staff make you feel like you are a gym family member. My only regret in all of this is that I waited so long to embark on this health/exercise journey. DO IT!!!!!!
