“I have been here at this gym for over five years and have seen multiple owners come and go, and I can confidently say that kinetic fitness and performance is now under the best ownership. I personally know one of the owners, and ever since he stepped in, the gym has made numerous upgrades, including brand, new equipment, more weights, and even the option to work with a personal trainer. Kinetic fitness has everything you could possibly need in the gym and more. Not only do they have all the weights and machines, they also offer free classes with your gym membership. Aside from that they have all sorts of pre-workout supplements, protein, isolate protein, etc, energy drinks, and protein bars.
Kinetic fitness, winning best local gym in Fairview of 2022 speaks for itself, but I can personally advocate that this is the best gym to be at, I say that, because as soon as you walk in the door, whether you are a new member, or a longtime member, you feel like family. You feel like you belong. The staff is always happy to help with any sort of questions you may have, and even offer assistance with lifting. It's hard at times to connect em with the staffed hours but overall, if you're looking for a gym to start your journey or to continue your journey, I highly recommend kinetic fitness.!”
“Definitely NOT your average gym! Andrew and his team at StretchMove have been absolutely FANTASTIC over the two years I’ve been training. The new facility is beautiful, very clean and the equipment top quality. Andrew changed my life and has helped take my fitness and endurance to another level. Highly recommend you check them out!”

“I contacted Fit 4 All for temporary gym use during my out of state visit. Dave picked up on the first ring and offered a fair price for the weekend. When we arrived to the gym we were welcomed enthusiastically. After much trial and error with commercial gyms, it was nice to experience a welcoming environment. I'm glad to have a reliable gym on my visits back home. Thank you so much!”
“Excellent pool. I’ve been to a few swim meets here and they have been run very smoothly. Had a meet during the COVID-19 pandemic and they were not very strict about enforcing mask regulations, though. Bathrooms seem to always be clean and the pool deck as well. Seating is excellent but it can get a bit hot up there.”

“Great Gym. Super old school with just the right equipment you need. I have visited this spot 4 times already and it's definitely my go to spot whenever I'm in the area. If you're ever in the area and need a gym, definitely get a day pass. Members are all about getting there workout in, no BSing here.”
“I spend way too much time here! There's honestly so much one can do here. There's a pool, weight room, running track, basketball courts, rock wall, group fitness rooms etc. You can even rent out bikes for free!*Have to add that the facility is accessible to persons associated with SIUE (student, faculty, alumni etc). However, each person can bring in 1 guest.”
“Shout out to this YMCA. I had my goddaughter’s 9th birthday party there on yesterday. She loves swimming, and wanted a swimming party. I must say that this was an epic event. The staff were amazing. Shout out to Chrystal (front desk), who greeted all of our guest and kindly explained the reason for identification needed to enter. She was professional and was patient with my entire crew. Major shout out to Ms. Bonita
. She had a great attitude and was approachable. She had a smile even while cleaning. She was able to even redirect us when our crew needed assist. The lifeguards were amazing! I didn’t get their names but the two young ladies and the young man treated our children with care. They were professional even when redirecting our children to follow the rules. They took the job seriously. They explained the seriousness of following the rules and did the swim test to set boundaries on the ones that weren’t able to go into the deep. We had a lot of children there and we felt safe with these young people. People don’t have to be nice or kind. I’m thankful for the staff as a whole. May God continue to bless you all. I really hope that this review reaches the administrators and something special happens for all the staff that was mentioned above!!!”
“My family loves this YMCA.
The bathrooms are clean (but sometimes the floor is excessively wet).
The gyms are clean and lots of spray bottles and rags available for cleaning equipment before and after use.
The walking track is nice. It gives you the strength training room and one gymnasium to walk through from the second floor looking down.
Pool has lap swim and sometimes open/family swim. Life guards are attentive. They have coaster guard approved puddle jumpers and life vests for littles and the not so great swimmers.
We have participated in camps, swim lessons, youth soccer and basketball. All were what we expected and the staff were good with our kids.
Child watch room clean and staff is very nice.”
“Lots of equipment (lots of hammer strength machines, free weight dumbells and barbells, 3 squat racks,one deadlift platform, hex bars, straight bars, 2 Smith machines thenots of treadmills, stair climbers, elliptical, and rowers) and room if you are focused on lifting or cardio big you are seeking the sauna, light therapy, massage, the Collinsville location is going disappoint you, need to go to O'Fallon or Alton or Missouri instead.”

“I’ve been going to this PF location for about two years now, and my experience has consistently been great. They’ve recently added a ton of new equipment, which is awesome because it gives members more variety and options. On top of that, the employees are always friendly and welcoming. It’s the most cost effective gym around, and even though it can get busy at times, it truly has everything you need.”
“Great gym! The classes are fun and I highly recommend TRX class. Total body workout and you can modify during any of the classes offered. Clean and family oriented complex!!”

“I don’t always get a chance to come here, but when I do, it is always a pleasant experience. I have bilateral tearing in My hips so I can’t always work out when I do get to go as per my doctors orders. But the whole staff, especially James, who works at the front in the mornings when I do get to go are always so welcoming even if I just go to use the massage chair the staff is so friendly and welcoming. I’ve never been made to feel bad or given to any sort of side eye. If all I do is show up use the massage chair and leave. I specifically mention James because he gave me a tour and help explain some machines to me that I could use that wouldn’t cause too deep of extensions for my hips, which was a fear I had that they would not be able to accommodate. He was very knowledgeable and every time I’ve seen him he’s had a smile on his face. The whole staff has been great, but James in particular in the mornings is always a welcome site to see. I’ve never gone in there and the place be dirty or equipment be malfunctioning. I don’t know what other people are talking about when they say that the main point of this review, though was to highlight James he has been fantastic in the months that I’ve been coming here.”
“Vitality is great! Jennie keeps class sizes small, so you get one on one attention while working out with people who become fast friends. Extracurriculars, like the annual Thanksgiving run/walk are an added bonus!”
