Great gym with plenty of room and smartly organized areas. Lots of bits and bobs for serious lifters, too (incline heels, assisted bars, bent bars, rubber plates, Olympic plates, various ruck Sims, and a ton more. Plus, some classes are included!). Jacob, Moses and Josh are highlights of the gym, all in their own way. Jacob is the manager and quite helpful and knowledgeable. He was part of our tour briefly though the other front desk person, Karina, was great, always informative and conversational. Moses also had the same great qualities about him as well. I highly recommend this gym because it seems to always be clean, everyone is quite personable, and they don't seem to be any people that are overly emphatic about their lifting routines.

Nice gym with no frills. They offer Tango classes here which is why I go. Staff is very friendly. Bathroom facilities are clean.

Great no-frills gym with supportive staff, right in the heart of Capitol Hill. Clean and well maintained. Has everything you need for most workouts. Plenty of equipment, free weights, and machines. Classes available, although I haven't partaken. Highly recommend Eric for personal training - he's great to work with as a gym newbie jumping into fitness and weight loss. I wanted more of a workout partner than a drill sergeant - Eric put my mind at ease with multiple options, and crafts the perfect workouts designed to hit my goals every week. Results after a few months have been noticeable, and still going!
