Fitness & Gyms in Prattville, AL

“Rob’s gym is awesome! Unfortunately I only got to take classes for two weeks while attending Air Force training, but this gym had an amazing impact on my bjj journey.
First of all, the gym is the cleanest I’ve ever seen! The instructors are very patient, clear and want every student to understand the concepts and improve. Rob’s wife, Kelsey holds a ladies night on Fridays and she will teach even if there is only one student! I lucked out with a couple private lessons from her and some great instructional rolls!
The whole vibe is fun and laid back and I always felt safe rolling with the other students. I can’t say enough great things about Richardson BJJ! Special thanks to Rob, Kelsey and Nick for being so welcoming and teaching some awesome bjj skills!”

“Great, one of the best planet fitness locations I've visited. Well stocked, clean make locker room, good equipment. The massage chairs and hydro massages are great.”

“This is where my fitness journey started. The owner Kirk and manager Peyton are very knowledgeable! No matter where you are on your fitness journey, this team will help push you in the right direction.

As for the gym, it has everything you need! Old school feel with a modern look. This place always feels like my home away from home 💪”

“I am cleared to do water exercise. This Y has several forms offered. There are 2 coaches presenting programs Monday through Friday. . The pool is wonderfully warm for therapeutic exercise. Prattville has another Y also. It offers more programs for other purposes. Both are available to all Prattville YMCA members. I love the variety of programs. I feel there is something here for everyone. The building is well maintained and the staff is friendly and knowledgeable.”

“The coaches are great and so motivating. I have a great time with every workout out, and they push me to do my very best. The facilities are clean and well kept too.”

“She is so knowledgeable and helpful. She genuinely cares about you and wants you to succeed, and she teaches you the proper forms so that you dont hurt yourself.. Her facility is spacious and clean and has everything needed to improve your body. You definitely need to talk to her and work out with her. You won't regret it.”

“Great gym! It’s usually not too crowded, so I can get a really good workout in. Definitely my go-to spot to unwind and relieve some stress. Appreciate it🙂!”

“Passing through and found this place and stopped in. I was warmly greeted by everyone. Lots of talented young fighters. I was there for the Jiu-Jitsu open match and had a wonderful time. Everyone there was polite and full of good energy. If you’re looking to learn MMA and its component art all in one location, this is the spot for you!”

“1. Plenty of equipment. Generally nice/clean place. 24/7 facilities are convenient. Employees and members are polite. There is a good mix of different kinds of people so it doesn’t feel weird.

2. Being able to sign up online and not have to deal with a real person to get in is convenient, but then they caught me one day and had to take my picture which is unpleasant. It is pretty standard as far as gym procedures go (maybe for security and to prevent people from allowing their friends in without paying or something like that). They have a right to do it and I respect their right as a business, but I just don’t like it as a customer.

3. I see people scanning the app QR code at the door to get in and then go up to the desk and hit the QR scanners at the front desk too. Not sure if that is necessary, but if you scan once to get in the door, that should be the only scan necessary. I’m a technician/programmer. I understand how this stuff works. Basically it costs more money to make it seamless and it’s not a big deal in the first place.

4. Account/Code doesn’t work for hydromassage. 2 employees called me to upsell their personal trainer program (I respect the hustle, but it sounds like they don’t have a well organized “do not call” type list), but then cannot be bothered to help me with the hydromassage and they kindly suggested I go to some one at the front desk during my next visit, which comes across as lazy. If they cannot be bothered to communicate with their own co-workers, then it justifies why I’m not interested either. This is why I’m an introvert because when i detect BS i get belligerent, so i just avoid the confrontation. It doesn’t inspire confidence in their management culture and if the trainers cannot be bothered, it makes me wonder if they actually have the discipline and mindset to exceed health wise and inspire that in someone else. Then again, there is another sucker born every day.

5. I come to the gym after hours and the app didn’t work (server probably down) so I could not get inside. It’s a rare thing. Check your app before leaving home.

6. They pester me with emails (upselling and reminders/bragging about how good my membership is). I respect the hustle, but I had to block them because I respect my peace.”
