The kids club is a life saver. It's 10.00 for the whole month! most gym try to charge 3 dollars every time! And all the cardio has it's own TV's! Never had that before. Bodypump is an amazing class. Its the only one so far i've taken but the instructors are amazing here. Its a reasonably price gym with excellent ameneties and equipment. Have no complaints yet.

• Pros: Extremely Clean, Tv's w/ cable on all cardio and 24 hours!
• Cons: close early friday at 10pm and saturday at 7pm

Early morning is like...

I have been a member for nearly 2 years, and observed the gym go through many, many changes, mostly improvements. It still offers some of the best equipment anywhere, is always clean, has long hours, and is still a fairly good value. However... Overcrowded peak periods are becoming worse and worse. I have noticed a distinct sense of non-caring toward suggestions and requests... I work out early morning, between 5 -8am, like most normal gym goers for the physical aspect, being fit and staying healthy. I find it frustrating that I can't get on one of the treadmills, because some girl is on it pretending to get a cardio workout while twirling her hair and gossiping with their 'work out partner!' Quite frankly- I think of it as a three ring circus! And not have to stand around waiting for little miss nails to get done using the bench with her 2 lb Barbie chrome dumbbells? There is nothing worse than getting a good groove with some heavy weight then having to wait for some chick to get done using the bench as a stair stepper or the guy doing biceps in the only squats rackn, do have to say that I love the staff though- they are great, and the plasma TVs are a plus- too bad it doesn't make up for the frat party that is going on around me- but it does make you want to work out hard and quick, you have too to keep your sanity! But if you still want to go because it's convenient-its ok. Oh the bathroom its really small and the sauna REALLY, REALLY small, maybe 2 people inside.

• Pros: Clean, lots of parking, lots of equipment
• Cons: Crazy people in the morning...

Variety

A candy store of equipment leads to never a dull workout... assuming you have a sense or adventure.

The owners of Bothell and Redmond Golds have seperated themselves among their franchise brethren. Details to a clean (I heard one of the partners owns a cleaning service) environment along with new equipment and a sea of cardio equipment with flat screens (aha... your choice of channels to watch) keeps their members happy.

These guys "get it!"
