Fitness 2020 - McDonough — Attraction in McDonough

My husband and I recently re-joined this gym after being out of the state for 2 years.

Pros: the child care is WONDERFUL. Mrs Pat and her crew have always been really kind to our kids and doing a fabulous job with the chaos of their area. Unfortunately it can get WAY too crowded on some days. The tanning is pretty good and while I haven’t accessed the classes yet, I like the option. Most of the time I get a decent workout, though often it’s hard to know what pieces of equipment are open because of how much stuff is left out.

Cons (oof): The tripods, the tripods, the TRIPODS. These new influencer kids doing stupid tik tok workouts and taking up entirely too much space is RIDICULOUS. You’re not filming anything new, you’re not special. Get rid of allowing filming in the gym. If I found out I was in the background of someone’s video without my permission, I’d certainly take legal action. PICK UP YOUR WEIGHTS. This gym does a HORRIBLE job of keeping people in this gym accountable for picking up their weights. It. Is. Constant. Grown adult men just leaving their weights on the bar, the machine, the rack, etc. if you can lift it, you can clean it up. It’s absolutely horrendous. You have some trainers who are ALSO bad at doing this. The amount of adult men who make vulgar commentary about women or sit around in groups and just take up space/equipment is unreal. The amount of religious propaganda in the bathrooms. Just stop it. If people want to find your church, they’ll look. This gym needs to invest in some mats for in front of the toilets for the members who decide it’s perfectly okay to sit/stand in front of the toilet to leave a puddle of pool water in front of it for others to slip on. The parking. With more members, there are several times during the day where people are parking on the grass in order to not park in the neighboring businesses.

We signed back up to be members at the East Lake location when it opens and if there is no improvement at the new spot, we’ll leave bc it’s just ridiculous. I’d rather put the $75/mo into investing into a small home gym where I know my weights will be cleaned up and I won’t have to listen to grown men talking about the things they’d like to do to the...

They have such a courteous staff at the front desk! I always feel welcomed and seen. I love the gym's swim teachers as they taught me how to overcome my fears of the water and learn to swim!! I enjoy it now.

The gym has a variety of very good classes. Most of the group trainers are friendly, helpful, and knowledgeable. Some of them I haven't met yet, so no shade to them. I haven't used the personal trainers here yet but wouldn't hesitate to do so. I am training to become certified as one due to how much I have enjoyed working out, slimming down, and getting in much better shape. This gym definitely helped with meeting my fitness goals and making new ones.

This location is spacious with lots of equipment. There are a good bit of amenities. My kid and I love the kids club, playground, and kid-friendly staff. The bathroom is routinely cleaned. This gym is very popular, so the whole place gets crowded around peak times. Go on non-peak hours for more time to enjoy it. There are enough stalls in the women's bathroom, which is a big plus.

That being said, and perhaps plans are in the works, but I think they need a bigger sauna. The swimming pool area could use more attention. Additionally, I wish the pool remained warm, but it's sometimes somewhat colder at times until the staff gets there, maybe? It eventually warms up, though, for us to enjoy it. I wish there was a separate bathroom for the pool and more dressing rooms because parents tend to bring their older kids doing their swim lessons inside the women's locker area. There are only two dressing rooms for such a large crowd so I understand the dilemma. For a gym, though, growth is a good and fixable problem, so keep up...

My experience at Fitness 2020 in Stockbridge has been nothing short of exceptional, and I'm thrilled to share the highlights of this fitness haven. The General Manager, Mark, has set the bar high, ensuring a welcoming environment that extends beyond the ordinary.

The gym's commitment to inclusivity shines through its extensive range of free weights, reaching up to an impressive 170lbs. Whether you're a newcomer or a seasoned lifter, the diverse options cater to all fitness levels, fostering an atmosphere of accessibility.

One notable feature is the availability of group classes and knowledgeable trainers, adding a dynamic layer to the workout routine. The diverse class options and expert guidance have significantly enriched my fitness journey, offering both variety and expertise.

The cryo chamber and sauna have become indispensable components of my post-workout routine, providing a refreshing and invigorating experience for recovery. These thoughtful amenities underscore the gym's dedication to offering a holistic fitness experience.
