Core Fitness

Terrible service, hot tub is constantly out of order, pool area never scrubbed, and old men stare at you while you work out… Disgusting!!!

The potential here is insane, unfortunately it is not being run to that potential. In the year I have been going to this gym I have not seen 1 new piece of equipment aside from a few new yoga mats. The amenities are constantly breaking, i. e the pool, sauna, steam room etc. Right now the microphone for the aquafit class is ‘broken and in for repairs’ which is understandable, except it has been in this state for 2 months now, how long does it take to fix a microphone? The steam room has currently been down for 3+ weeks with not a word on what is being done with it.
Locker rooms do tend to smell and of course to a point this is expected, however not first thing in the morning before it has even been used much.
Toted as a 24 hour gym and you pay for this benefit, however 2 of the 3 locations (including this one) are no longer 24 hours and in fact have pretty crappy hours especially on the weekends.
Only reason for the 2-​star is that the classes are pretty decent, and the trainers are good.
I don’t know if this is a coincidence or not but a while ago I was told the owner is being more hands on now, and since then things have snowballed downhill.

Terrible customers service. Locker rooms are dirty and they stink so bad. I have not tried the classes. I would not recommend this to anyone.

It’s sad how much potential this place has, but it’s owned and run by incredibly incompetent people.
After being a member for over two years, I started to notice certain things were just not right. The sauna and steam rooms were always broken, as was the hottub at Mormon Trek. Basic equipment such as barbell safety clips and attachments for the universal machine were either broken or completely missing. The Mormon Trek location had THREE barbell safety clips for the entire facility. The locker rooms were neglected and smelled, and the 1^st Ave location has a serious gnat problem in the showers.
The staff could be very friendly, but never took responsibility to ensure that equipment was used properly. If I’ve said it once, I’ve said it one hundred times: The squat rack, of which there is ONE, is not for doing curls or deadlifts. People need the squat rack to do… wait for it… SQUATS (granted there a couple other acceptable exercises but hopefully you get my point). After repeated asking them to address this rather obnoxious issue, nothing was ever done. Not much for customer service.
To top it all off, with no advanced notification, they discreetly announced through an innocuously titled email, which ended up in many members junkmail, they were going to charge everyone a $ 100 «gym enhancement fee» to purchase new equipment. No signs were ever posted at any location. No effort was made to respond to members upset by this fee. Only two weeks time was allotted for members to adjust their budgets to cover this random and surprise fee. I don’t know about you but I’m not a fan of a business that I agreed to pay a certain amount every month stealing $ 100 out of my pocket.
This is also weird because they had raised everyone’s rates several months earlier for this same purpose, yet we saw no new equipment. How, if they can’t even maintain basics like universal attachments or safety clips, are we supposed to trust that our money would go to equipment rather than the incredibly shady owner’s pocket?
Do not sign up with this overpriced joke of a facility.

Nice convenient gym. The staff is always great to work with. This core fitness is never very busy and you can always get a great workout in. Recently remodeled and very nice equipment with a good layout. Also it’s a great place to just stop and grab a protein shake when you’re on the go.

Pretty sweet little gym. Hadn’t been there since the new life take over but love what they did to it. The pool rocks and you can watch football games on the mounted flat screen unless the annoying lady who can’t swim laps without silence is there.
The workout machines are all new and clean with TVs. They seem to have tons of personal trainers on staff and everyone is nice.
Also if you have kids they have a place put them while you work out!
