Catalyst Fitness is a new, nice gym on Maple Rd in Amherst with state-of-the-art, top-tier equipment and an open, positive vibe. Many reviewers call it the best or cleanest gym they have ever been to, praising the friendly staff and members, the quality, price, and location. However, it is frequently described as very overcrowded and overpacked, especially at peak hours, making it hard to find an opening on equipment. While some find it exceptionally clean, others note the men’s locker room can be pretty dirty and report seeing dust and spider webs. Some equipment is often out of order or down. A point of significant discomfort for some is the presence of a female cleaner in the men's bathroom while members are present. Despite the crowding and maintenance issues, the gym is well-regarded for its extensive and constantly updated equipment.
Equipment is in decent shape. Not usually too busy. Playlists are rancid though. I guess most people work out in headphones for a reason.
