Great gym, phenomenal equipment and the complete opposite of a typical commercial gym.Honestly, this is the best gym that I’ve gone too in my experience at gyms. The crowd here is very friendly and the gym is seldom packed during the times I go. They have a large selection of dumbbells and a ton of high quality lifting plates. Hours are flexible and there are regular crew members who clean all the equipment and ensure the gym is clean which is very nice to see especially during these times.

I LOVE this gym. The owner is super friendly and has created a great space. I’m happy to support him and his business. Honestly, he’s the main reason why I love this gym so much.Other pros of the Gym MPLS:Respectful clientele…. I’ve had some unfortunate experiences with the clientele at other gyms. I’ve had men get waaaay too close to me/ do inappropriate things to me while I was doing squats at more commercial gyms. That would NEVER happen at this gym for a multitude of reasons, but mainly because everyone is just so respectful. If you have a question they’ll be happy to help. But they’ll also leave you alone and let you get on with your workout. People are really good about putting away weights and keeping the gym clean. I also feel comfortable leaving my jacket out without fear of it getting stolen. I grew up in MPLSso that’s a pretty big deal to meQuality Trainers:Again, I’ve had some bad experiences in the past, with trainers purposely dallying/not maximizing my time because they want another session out of me. At the Gym MPLS. I presented my trainer with a list of my problems. I was given a routine to address them, a written plan, and we ran through all the excersises to check form in the span of 30 minutes. The rest of the time was spent on any questions I had. Within a week all of my list (about 10 problems) were resolved, including hip pain that had plagued me for about a year. Couldn’t recommend the trainers enough.Open 24/7:The gym is open 24/7 if you have the code. This is Super nice if you want some flexibility. It comes in handy when normal gyms would be closed. I was able to work out on Christmas Day. I worked super late one day and was able to get my session in at 10:00pm.One possible con:Not a lot of Machines:If you need Machines this may not be the gym for you. They have some but not as many as say the YMCA or Lifetime. But I would still recommend talking with the owner as he may be able to recommend alternatives. In general, I find free weights to be more beneficial, so this is actually more of a plus to me. They do have some so definitely check whether or not they have what you need, because after working out here, I don’t want to work out anywhere else. I would sacrifice a fair bit to be here as opposed to a commercial gym.
