I just moved to the area and was looking for a gym and step by In shape fitness and had the worst experience. I was interested in training with a personal trainer and the man who was supposed to show me the gym just made me sit in his office, didn’t explained anything and made me feel bad. First, if I’m looking for a personal trainer that means I have the money to pay for it and I had the feeling he thought I didn’t. When I got up to go away he asked: it’s that to much for you? And I just said no, I didn’t felt good here. The gym is good and the girl in the front desk was really kind but this man in particular was really rude and made me feel the worst person. Giving one star just because I can’t give 0. Don’t ever go to this place!

Don't apply for a job here unless you're gorgeous. Non hunks and non babes need not apply. I applied for a front desk position, not even two days later, I got an email saying they've decided not to move forward with my application. They're looking for hunks and babes. They're not very nice and whoever answers the phone seems like an airhead. The vibe seems very elitist and yuppie.

Such potential! Use the yearly maintenance fees to update strength training equipment. The bench’s are not sturdy and ripped. Add more racks and more barbell options, more plates and scrap machines that are collecting dust. Streamline! Roof the outdoor turf so it’s accessible despite the weather. Also hold the members accountable to put equipment back where it belongs, place is disorganized! Thanks

The gym itself is nice, they had all the equipment I like in a gym and plenty of turf which I like b/c I do a lot of PT but the atmosphere of the place kinda killed it for me, felt like I was in highschool again rather than in an actual gym. People stare at you weird if you are working out hard. Felt like I was the only one actually working out, just not my kind of crowd. Kind of a yuppy gym/hang out spot and overcrowded, not really for the serious minded who just wanna work out, and that's ok if that's what your into, it's just not for me. Also $40 bucks a month and you can't bring a guest when every other gym is charging the same or less and you can bring guest, and the sanitary wipes were almost always empty. Also plates and kettle bells where always all over the place, I can understand if people don't put stuff back but I would sometimes tidy up the areas b/c employees would rarely do it. If you go here I recommend going early in the morning rather than later or just go to PowerHouse gym which is more for the serious minded.

Extremely disappointed with this place. I’ve been sick on and off and haven’t been able to go use the gym and I’m moving as well. I go to cancel my membership and I was told since I’ve singed a contract I have to pay for the whole year. Unless I prove to them it’s 25 miles away that’s the only way I can cancel it without any fees. So until I give them proof I’m 25 miles away I have to continue to pay for something I can’t use. Absolutely ridiculous.

My wife used to go here. We went back for a tour together, but both easily agreed to pass. The tour guide was shocked we said no and left. He wanted a full month of payment for half month left. No discount. He pushed for extra $45 sign up fee as well, when it wasn't required (huge sign out front says no sign-up fee). My wife used to pay $20, now it's it's $40. No discount for returning member either? No thank you.

Excellent facility. Good number of both cardio machines (bikes, treadmills, etc.) and inventory of weight training equipment (machines and free weights). Men's locker facilities are reasonably well kept with fair number of showers and a reasonable sized sauna.

Price of membership constantly goes up but the gym quality stays the same… There are a total of 5 power racks in the whole gym, (1 without a mirror). Unfortunately the gym is full of useless and broken equipment. I have been very patient with this gym but seeing things such as weights being left all over the place have really made me lose faith in this gym. There are workers constantly walking around looking for new personal training clients, but never have I seen them try to tidy up the gym and make it a good environment. The worst part is that the owner is not really interested in fixing any of this… anyone that goes to this gym knows that the owner has done countless sketchy business practices and will continue to get as much money as possible out of people. This gym is a cash grab and I suggest you don’t fall for it. The only way this gym is better than planet fitness is the fact that there are power racks. I’m sorry but this gym has just gotten so much worse over the years and the monthly fee increase just pushed me over the edge. Not saying you can’t get a good workout in but the environment is not the best to say the least.

$40/month and you cant even bring guest daily??? Save yourself the money and go to The Edge (19 minutes away). Patiently waiting for the day they bring a LA fitness to Branford. Superior gym and more affordable. I paid less at LA fitness and I was able to bring a guest, they had more classes to offer, and they had a pool!

One lady at the front is amazing. But machine are outdated. Then after a year they increase 10 bucks for what. Not worth it

10 years ago I canceled because my Dad was I'll and. Had to move to care for him. These people lost my verifying mail so now I move back, try to rejoin, and they want $150 in late fees - 10 years later! Rip off artists. Wouldn't go back if they let me in for free now.

Great staff and equipment but closing time early on weekends -6 pm today Saturday and 4 pm Sunday -resulting in gym crowding and for me as a late day and weekend exerciser not enough time. AT ALL.
