I love this place. I've been a member for several years. In my opinion Optimal Sport 1315 is the best gym in the city. The staff and management are extremely attentive to the needs of the members.Kvn ShapiroMae Downs & Co.

Horrible experience with cancellation.Gym in city is extremely tight, extremely low ceilings (personally me, not having issues with claustrophobia, had discomfort there). Pretty much packed, some of the inventory out of order and most of them pretty old, and gym takes !!! every three months something like $40 or $50 to keep inventory updated. Not good experience at all. I was paying half of the price that I was paying at life time fitness and got service worse than planet fitness.

This is a great gym to train at with a welcoming staff(Marissa,Joe,Erik) and good equipment. As an IFBB Pro, a good gym environment is important. I've been to various gyms across the country and would recommend Optimal Optimal Sport 1315 to athletes and those who want a great experience in the gym

I LOVE this gym. I was a member for a couple of years before I moved to a different area (and thus a different gym, unfortunately), and I didn’t realize how much I was going to miss it, especially its vibrant community.I recently moved back to the neighborhood, though, and one of the first things I did was re-join Optimal — yes, I missed it that much! I can happily say that after all this time, even after the pandemic, it’s just as awesome as I remember it to be — clean, very well-equipped, and full of some of the warmest, friendliest, and most fitness-savvy people I’ve ever had the pleasure of meeting. The trainers are incredibly knowledgeable, and Marissa (the general manager) and Jeff (the owner) are so kind and easy to talk to.There’s a reason why Optimal has such a loyal client base, and it’s not just because it’s an excellent facility; it’s also a superlatively welcoming, positive space and community. I’m thrilled to be back!

I was recently in town and came for a single day guest pass. The gym is equipped appropriately, clean, has modern equipment in good condition. It is a very solid establishment and worth checking out.The person on duty was asleep when I came in the morning of November 5th and impolite when I had to wake him up. He was asleep once again when I finished.

Was in town for the weekend and found Optimal sport 1315 on internet and it was just a few blocks away. This is an amazing gym no matter what style of workout you like to do. I’m an old school lifter but there was plenty of cardio and CrossFit type equipment for everyone. Wish my home gym was as good as Optimal. The staff is was also friendly and helpful.
