Great budget gym. Cardio room was my favorite, a machine was always available. The weights section needs more duplicates of lighter weights. (20-40lbs)

Flex Gym is a clean, well equipped site for the general user, but also has equipment for those seeking more focused and higher level exercise. There are also classes. The equipment is maintained in good working order, and the staff is friendly, professional, and responsive to questions on how to best either use equipment or achieve exercise goals.

Very friendly staff and members, nice variety of equipment and different classes to fit many different members' needs! I love the community vibe! The Body Performance class with Kara was super fun and I got a great full-body workout.

After not attending a gym in over a year and a half, I was very nervous about coming back - partially due to health and safety but mostly because gyms can be intimidating places! Not so at FLEX, the atmosphere is warm and welcoming and staff/patrons are very helpful & friendly. It feels good to be back!

Friendly, low key local gym. They have everything you need for most regular workouts, and rarely need to wait for machines except during very busy times. Staff is super friendly. No vibe of pressure, everyone is just there to do their own thing. Super convenient location.

While a small gym, it never feels crowded enough to where you can't do your workout. It's a clean and organized space. There's enough room, weights, and machines to accomodate your level and type of work out for the day. The gym does a great job of fostering a collaborative environment as other members seem to care about etiquette like not hogging an area or weights for too long.

100!! Well-equipped, clean, convenient boutique gym that's not overcrowded, with good customer service, great instructors and friendly community vibe too. One of the few gyms with Open gym option, as well as classes that's very reasonably priced.Having been to over 10 gyms in 3 different countries, and joined an Equinox-equivalent for 4 years, I can honestly say this is one of the decent ones given its price point. Really glad to have this in the neighborhood.

Great gym, highly recommended. Staff is friendly, accommodating and responsive. Equipment is always in working order. Facility and equipment is always clean. Numerous exercise and yoga classes for people of all ages, interests and abilities.I’m giving 5 stars but have one complaint/warning for those looking for a circuit gym. Circuit etiquette is not enforced here. You will encounter people who are oblivious to circuit etiquette. They jump from machine to machine without regard to whom might be looking to use it when the bell rings. So you may find your circuit interrupted by a clueless member.Early mornings see the place filled with predominantly elderly women who use Flex to sit on the equipment and socialize with each other while ignoring the circuit bell. Mildly frustrating when you’re pressed for time in the morning.That said, overall I love this gym and would recommend it to anyone looking to get in shape.

This gym is an excellent place. It is clean, nice environment, good taste in workout music, excellent instructors, the classes are fun and versatile, great workout machines and friendly staff. I really enjoyed my time there!. If I still lived near by the piedmont ave. I could go to flex again without any doubts. Believe me, I'm a gym bug and this is the best place where I've workout by far!Thank you Flex, George and Bruce and all the staff there for being so attentive to costumers, you really take care of us!
