dont take your kids there

by CSMobileUser

they have girls who work who talk about doing drugs or step on the kids backs and kick them. it is a very wild atmosphere. even if it is free i dont want my kids to be hit or taken care of people who are talking about doing drugs. if you are goning to take them take them mon-fri in mornings. the morning weekday staff has control of the kids and knows what they are doing.

Not worth the headache

by acaligirl

I went to Fitness 19 in the very early morning with a friend to try it out since it is closer than the gym I am actually a member of. Since I am from out of town I thought they would be happy to let me try it out for a few visits to see if I wanted to sign up. They wanted to charge me $10 for a day or $40 for a month. I thought this gym was known for their low rates. Also, I had a coupon for a low monthly rate that says no enrollment fee, what the coupon failed to include was the $49 lock in fee. Which in retrospect isn't a huge amount, but I am paying dues for another gym and as of now I am not sure how long I will be in town so I was unsure if it would be worth it. My friend, also from out of town, had received a month pass for only $25 (a non-local rate) which I asked for. The answer I received was that as of the last few weeks they no longer offered the $25 rate because of rising gas prices. This is a gym right? Why would they raise their rates only for out of town guest passes due to gas prices? This morning staff seemed less than helpful and only interested in charging me as much as possible. I probably would have signed up after a few visits due to the convenience of the location. Now I would rather use that extra gas to drive to my gym and workout in a more friendly and helpful environment.

• Pros: Not very crowded in the early morning
• Cons: Morning staff
