Gainesville Health & Fitness

Really like this gym. It does get a bit crowded at peak hours, which is obviously understandable. But theres a decent amount of everything. you wont be waiting too long, if at all, to hop to your next excersise. Theres a few more machines Id love to see them add along with a more diverse selection of EZ Bar incremented weights. They only have straight bar. Overall, great gym that has many amenities; sauna, steam room, pool, and cold plunge to name a few.

One of my least favorite gyms I’ve been to. There’s never free equipment upstairs and few benefits I personally found worth the price. Something important to keep in mind is if you have to move for a job hours away, they will refuse to cancel your membership without a $119 fee if you’re still in your contract. This is the first and only gym I’ve been asked to pay a fee due to moving far away from available locations. Every other place I’ve had to cancel due to a move at most would ask for proof and then waive the fee. This is especially important to consider for students who may be gone during the summer or those who also have to move for work. Go literally anywhere else in Gainesville and you will be better off.

I am an older woman and have been to many Fitness Centers in my life. This is by far the very best. The machines are great for your continued health and the staff is extremely helpful and friendly.It is a must do for you --- even if you don't like to exercise -- use their machines. It will change your life!!!

I am a relatively new patron. I became a member in July. I moved from crunch fitness. It's okay but there is a lot of areas for improvement.The Good:- There is a lot equipment. I have never had to wait to use anything and it is always in working condition. This is a huge plus over other gyms that lack equipment or equip is always broken.- The women's center is nice and more private.- The Kids Club at the Women's center is awesome and hasn't been busy when I have been there.- Having a pool / hot tub / spa area is nice.The Bad:- There is not a lot of variety in the classes, esp the Spin Classes. The longest spin class is 50 mins - 5 min warm up means you only get a 45 min class.- The instructors are hit and miss. Peggy is awesome. punctual and instructive. Raf is not awesome. She plays music at dangerously high levels and ignores requests to turn it down. It's also so loud that it's not really instructive because you can't hear anything.- Not all instructors are punctual, many start 5 mins late or end 5 mins early.- The AV equipment in the spin room is frequently not working.- It is not all-inclusive. Barre classes, boot-camp, tribe, massage chairs, are extra. There seems to be a lot of up-selling.- The hours at the women's center are very limited and it is closed on sundays.

Gym has good amenities, but due to the lack of equipment upstairs, don’t come anytime after 6 pm unless you like waiting 30+ minutes for a machine 6 high school kids are using at once. Frustrating, makes me wanna switch gyms.

This gym is awesome! My only complaint is that the cable machines upstairs need to be lubricated. The plates stick to the guide poles causing uneven resistance. It’s very hard to keep my focus on my workout when I’m trying to keep the plates from crashing down or if I’m using two cables at once, one side is working harder than the other.

My favorite worker is David (Anthony). He’s so sweet and gets the job done. And he has a voluptuous wonderful exquisite gluteus Maximus. His huge muscles distract everyone from their workout. Everyone wants to be him. Because he is him.

I've belonged to many gyms; GHF is head and shoulders above the others. I'd always wanted to meet the owner because I knew he must be sharp. When I met him he was kind and patient even though he was very busy. Joe, Thanks, for recommending the book, The Law of Success to me. I'll keep reading it!

Sign up was more complicated than necessary, requiring a meeting with a certain set of staff members that lead us to having to drive over three separate times in twenty-four hours. After the lack of communication, sign up was easily rushed and completed.Facility appears clean. Staff seem friendly.

Great gym, great service, lots of staff cleaning and there to help with anything, hot tub, pool, sauna, steam room and Manu more features!!!!
