This gym has a lot to offer & many pros! With that said there's also a lot of cons to take into consideration. I'll start on the positive side;
Pros: Alot of equipment & space! There's many options & you never truly feel cramped.
Esthetically very nice. The facility is clean, well kept & visually very nice.
Many services on site such as tanning & massage!
Lots of supplements from protein to energy drinks, there's a lot of selections.
Lots of storage! There are lots of lockers for your things!
Now the negatives
Cons: MANY inexperienced lifters who SLAM, DROP & abuse the weights! The sound & feel of these children lifting entirely too heavy with no eccentric motion at all can be felt throughout the entire gym on both levels!
Absurdely loud grunting, groaning & moaning. As usually accompanies children practicing unsafe & irresponsible lifting techniques is the over exaggerated noise they belt out. It's INCREDIBLY distracting & unnecessary most of the times.
Mirror posing. The number of times I've experienced children in the downstairs weight room taking their shirts off & posing in front of the mirror is laughably insane. At times I've witnessed four to five boys standing in a row in front of the dumbells with their shirts off flexing, posing & admiring themselves in the most obnoxious of fashion. Often they're spending more time giggling, talking & admiring themselves than actually lifting or putting in work! One boy brings a tripod & camera to photograph himself in the mirrors!!!
With all of this said this is a really nice gym. I do believe it's value is elevated by the lack of competition in the area, though. The cons are unfortunately (for me) so great I do feel I have to...
Read moreI called to ask about canceling my membership because I was struggling with motivation, and my mental state was not in a good place. I asked the man who answered the phone what the policy was about canceling and if I was out all of the money. And he asked why and I told him I was not driving with the place and was not really able to make myself go, and he said “well why don’t you just drive on down here and work out right now.” I told him that not everyone is just able to do that and that not everyone is in the right mental state to just get up and do stuff. He then told me that I can talk to the woman about it on Monday. He asked for my name and number and I told him I would call back on Monday and hung up. What he said to me was extremely rude and hurtful and he made me feel guilty and bad about myself for not going to 3D and...
Read moreI would give more stars if they were available. I have belonged to 3 other gyms in the Eau Claire/Chippewa Falls area in the last 15+ years. None of them compare to this gym and it's owner. Scott is a caring and understanding person who takes the time to answer questions and be helpful in any way possible. I've never felt rushed or blown off when seeking answers to questions. He's had great advise for me when I have been recovering from a severe accident. Other gym's were constantly trying to up sell me on everything imaginable. 3D doesn't operate this way, they offer everything the other gyms in the area offer and more with their hands on approach. I cannot say enough about how great it is to be a...
