Place has changed so much from before. Now its month to month so no contract. If you are going to join a gym in modestl. This is the perfect place to go. So many amenities to count. Including Wifi! Golly, When I first stepped into this gym I was so amazed and thought it couldn’t get any better. The more I looked to more amazed I was. Best Gym, hands down in Modesto!

Absolutely LOVE this gym. They have a very nice facility. My only complaint would be may a once or twice a week bathroom/shower room floor buff. The floor is pretty nasty. Of course it's a bathroom so its to be expected. Plus, you should be wearing shower shoes. It just looks nasty. That is my only reason for giving a four and not a five star rating.The daycare area is amazing. My daughter is so hard to leave with anyone. However, Jessica got her to fall in love with it no problem! The staff makes a very notable effort to get to know each and every child that comes through. They also make it a point to get to know the parents. I've walked in a few times now on them practicing the kids names and matching them with the parents names. The staff made our babies feel so welcome. Now when we take our daughter in (shes 17 months) and shes like "bye bye!" She cant get enough of it. I feel so safe leaving her and my seven year old son in the daycare area. They both get very excited when it's time to go to the gym.We also take part in the family swim time. Thats a huge hit with the kids too! At first i thought 1730-1930 was a little short. It actually works out perfectly for us. The tanning beds are well maintained. The equipment is also very well maintained. I have utilized the sauna every day that i have gone. Other than what im guessing was a very hangry woman i have not had any problems. It's clean and well kept.Over all we as a family really love going to this gym. Sadly, we have to drive a half hour to get to it...it's totally worth it though. I go twice a day.Update: my only reason for not giving a five star review was the floors in the bathroom. Well that has most definitely improved. I can not say enough about how great this gym and staff are. I am here 6/7 days a week. Never do i deal with any foul attitudes or poor work ethics of any kind. This really is a wonderful environment that has been staffed with amazing people. Thank you so much guys. You all make my time spent in your gym all that much better with your hard work and dedication.

In-Shape is great place to work workout. the children's playroom room is very good with two sides for big and small kids. They have two people that work there and they have some experience with autistic children. They are very good with the kid and my kids love going there. They have multi workout areas in the whole building two pools one hot tub of one small kid pool to and a room for a spinning class and aerobics or yoga. They also have racquetball courts there are usually always full and then the big main room which is all the heavyweights and weight machines and it is well spread out so people are not on top of each other.

The steam room cannot be beaten. Lately, the steam has been so thick, I cannot recognize anyone's face when there or even tell what gender they are. The facility has everything I need: heated lap pool, large thermal pool, spa, sauna, steam room, ample locker and shower rooms, and more than adequate number and types of exercise machines and free weights. I don't use the classes, but there are many. Same with personal trainers, outdoor Olympic pool and wading pool, and a baby sitting room for children - I don't use these options but they are available. Parking is quite adequate. Hours are great - even open half a day on Christmas. For folks over age 65, Medicare pays 100% of membership fees. Can't beat the staff - they are universally pleasant and professional or they don't last long. Right now, the management is having the interior repainted and replacing the wall decorations and signage - maintenance is very good.Four instead of five stars is because of a few of the patrons using this facility who occasionally leave their trash in the showers and steam room and take their ill-mannered children into the thermal pool outside of family hours. Doesn't happen so much that I won't go there, but it happens. The staff does the best they can with the inevitable self centered, entitled persons that make the facility less pleasant for the rest of us to use while they are there. Not the fault of the management.

As long as the gentleman Bill is working the place is spotless, the pools are maintained(he pays special attention to the outside pool area. The Taj Mahal of gym clubs.

The gym itself is okay. They have a to of equipment, but I go here specifically for the pool which is consistently too hot. I'm training for an Ironman and have had to swim 3000 yards in a pool that is over 90 degrees. An indoor lap pool is supposed to be 80-82 degrees. I've complained many times and it's still a daily tossup as to whether the pool is going to be overheated or not.

Don't really care to say much about the staff even though it was staff who asked me to write a review. Just going to comment on the gym, decent average joe gym. Cleanliness I'd give it 5 stars. Everything is pretty much clean all the time for the most part. Free weights section is a bit small, 1 squat rack, 1 free hanging pull up bar, no hammer strength free weights, all seems pretty average for a "high end gym". I think if they just took a survey the most important items needed in a gym and kept more of those people would be more happy. Also if your an athlete on off-season trying to execute a training program this wouldn't be the best place to come unless your looking for a makeshift workout because they won't have half the stuff you need or the space. Once again this gym is targeting the high percentage of gym goers trying to just stay happy and healthy. List of pros/cons could go on and on but overall pretty good. Lots of perks too.(pool, racquetball, steam room, etc. ) 3 stars. Far from an elite gym. I'd say a lesser version of a Lifetime Fitness. Also a lot less cheaper. Inshape - 25$/month Lifetime - 80$/month

Stay away for your own good. Broken equipment, lighting issue at more than one gym, staff, including district manager doesn't care for people's behaviour/ gym etiquette, so long as you pay for membership. I've been a member for about 10 years, and I advise strong caution.

I didn't hate the facility, I'm very displeased with the customer service from member services. I'm 34 weeks pregnant and I was under an agreement with this club that my account was on hold until March which is right after I give birth, since I am dealing with a high risk pregnancy, I am unable to do any type of strenuous work let alone work out. Now I've realized that they've charged my bank account for my monthly membership with out even notifying me that they were either going to activate my membership again or charge me some type of fee. I just called the club directly and apperantly all representatives are way to busy to answer my call. It upsets me because they're so quick to charge my account and NOT refund my money but they can't ever answer member phone calls. Right away they want to direct you to their corporate office which we all know is just a way for them to give us the run around. 😡

Best ADA gym in Modesto. The warm water pool is the most equipped aqua pool for work outs for tight muscles. The double rail on the entrance stairs, the chair lift and the railing around the inside of the pool make it super safe. Very friendly staff, prompt customer service make it the place to go. This has done wonders for my flexibility and pain relief. I love In-Shape McHenry North and Recommend them often. Omar and Teresa are excellent trainers.
