Overall, this gym is pretty nice but, just a few things I've been noticing over the last month:The area nearest the bathrooms/pool area with all of the treadmills smells like mildew/mold or more like a sweaty gym sockThe changing room in the indoor pool area has an extremely pungent mold body odor stench in itThe sauna has a notice posted right outside of it regarding the wear of shoes... most everyone ignores this and wears their shoes in the sauna--the gym staff have been notified face-to-face and basically do not enforce the rule...

I've been an avid inshape member throughout my past 10 years or so. I usually have no problems and love all inshape provides. So long as the equipment works, the televisions have closed caption (as im mostly deaf) and they are on the correct stations. For some reason this particular location continues to have problems with just one television. Which also happens to be my go to channel for my workout. It is irritating. As i want to relax and workout. I've asked staff to fix it for over a month but to no avail. They keep changing the channel and not putting it back to its original posted channel. Im quite tired of talking to the same employee about it as i know im irritating him as well.. I've never encountered such a problem in other cities ive lived in and attended inshape. Please put "tnt" (tv #9) station back on as its posted it should be and leave it there. It is showing abc sports.. I hate watching sports. 14 televisions in front of my workout and there are already alot of sports channels on. Why do they keep changing just the tnt station??????

We had to wait 40 minutes before we could sign our kids in which meant we missed that much of our work out. Due to not being properly staffed. No manager on site. could only locate one 15lb kettlebell in the building. What Ami suppose to do with that. Extremely disappointed.

I joined the gym and I am very impressed with the facility which has an of weights, bicycles, steppers, and a swimming pool. They have four locations in town which are all available to members. and and they are located across the states. I highly recommend.

A bunch of followers people that can't get fit or exercise on THIR own instead pay lots of money to a ("club") to feel a part of. Men's shower and hot sauna needs better privacy enforce to much sexual nudity going on in the men's room.

We love going here. We moved to merced 2 years ago from Fresno so my husband can work in turlock. Merced doesn't have much for kids to do like Fresno does. We chose in shape so the kids enjoy the indoor pool all year long. We swim very often. This gym is clean and the staff are sweet. The only thing I wish was possible is some sort of day pass deal. I have family and friends come to visit often and with rainy days there isn't much to do here but to coop up all the kids in the house. My best friend is a family of 5 with two kids under 6 years old. The day pass adds up with that many people. I wish they can enjoy it as much as we do. Please help. Love this gym either way.

The employees are always happy and upbeat which makes it very welcoming. However, the gym gets very crowded and alot of the females that go have very poor hygiene. I would like for the pool to be at a cooler temp as well.

The facility is fine and the staff is irrelevant. Problem is no one knows what the hell they’re doing and end up getting in the way much too often. The best time to go is 5/6AM because it’s usually relatively empty and the morons won’t arrive till around 8 or 9. Equipment is always either missing or in the wrong place because no one seems to know how to count. Also 80% of members never put their weight back due to being absolute pigs so you have to take off the weight others left on before putting on your own almost 100% of the time. You will also often see members make a complete fool of themselves doing absolute nonsense. Form? Nonexistent. Sensible routines? Outdated. Logic? Nope. Sadly this isn’t the staffs fault and there’s nothing to really be done but their member base is disgusting and it makes working out here awful. The only reason I’m still here is because I live within walking distance and it’s convenient. Unless you plan to workout early as hell I would recommended finding another gym with a member base that isn’t full of animals.
