Free towels are a lifesaver. Always very quiet which makes working out more enjoyable. The renovations are stunning, newer equipment, and extremely helpful and caring staff.

My favorite gym in town. It's quiet and welcoming. Also very clean. I've tried other places but I came back here. Staff is friendly, trainers are knowledgeable. Totally recommended.

I live downtown so this is the YWCA I like to go to. The equipment is newer than the Lake Street location. I have never been to the Uptown location because they charge for parking. The pool is great. I could never swim when I was a member of the YMCA downtown because others were always in line. It is small and there is not that much equipment. If you don't like long waits Lake Street and Uptown may be better for you.

Today was my first day here. I mostly do Olympic lifts such as cleans and snatches. They do have a platform with bumper plates. I was deadlifting and I dropped the weights on the last set and a manager there told me not to do it, because its not respectful to other people working out. If you watch any video of someone doing oly lifts you will never see someone slowly put the weight down, because of the injuries it could cause. I'm not sure why they have those a oly station if we can't lift properly. Honestly I didn't like the vibe that this gym gave off on the first day. Although I have no other option where to workout i'm stuck here.
