Workout Anytime East Rochester — Local services in East Rochester

WOA did a good job with balancing cost-effectiveness, appearance and customer satisfaction; however, additional traffic safety measures needs to be applied, in order to travel and leave safely. It is located in a plaza on Ohio River Blvd with other businesses and exits every couple yards. Drivers drive fast and unpredictable. Please use your signals prior to turning. When attempting to leave, unless it is early or late in the day, it is a seriously life-or-death situation. First, in order to leave the WOA parking lot, you need to cross the 4 lanes going in and out of the plaza. You must watch in every direction because that is how people are driving. There aren't too many stop signs at the ends of the parking lot, so people just erratically drive and cut each other off to get to the outbound lanes and other businesses. If you exit outbound, you are better off than the next option. Not only do you need to cross the 4 lanes, you need to cross the chaotic parking lot in the plaza. Drivers flying downhill from Rochester's residential area, whip around Auto Zone and Long John Silver's drive thru, cut around parked cars, while people circling around from inbound lanes. You aren't safe until you are in the gym. Watch after parking and leaving your car; you could get hit by a driver rushing to Big Lots and Shop N Save! Hopefully, once you make it there, you will see that your arduous journey was worth it. You receive a key fob, so you can get in yourself when the gym associates aren't there in the early mornings/late nights. When they are there, they are meticulously cleaning and friendly. The doors are secure and there are security cameras. There are televisions and a music station on. The large windows allow natural light. They did a great job with the space, you can walk a full circle around most of the machines. They are equipped with free weights, benches and squat racks with well-placed mirrors, so you can watch your form. They have a rarity that I don't usually find in other gyms like the functional eccentric trainer. It is great to see more gym selections opening in the Beaver...

Nice, clean gym, great instruction, polite staff, people of all ages and experience levels go here. They have up to 100lb dumbbells which is nice for the people who need them because most places don't offer dumbbells that heavy. Workout Anytime is beginner friendly. They have a stand up higher level tanning bed and a base level lay down, two hydro massage chairs, and a cool body scanner you can do each month that physically shows you where you have lost weight/fat. The scanner also shows the measurement to any part of your body you select and it does a bunch of other cool things. This is something I find amazing. It's great for someone like myself who suffers from body dysmorphia. It puts things into a clear perspective. They have a personal trainer who is very polite and eager to help everyone on the floor, the pt sessions are about the same cost as anywhere else you would go. I didnt see/hear anything about classes or groups so I don't think they do that. Although, there was a mention of a once a week thing but I apologize because for the life of me I can't remember. All in all I would recommend this place over planet fitness any day unless you're a roid raging meat head then I don't recommend and you should go to PF...

I moved so I tried to cancel my membership. Called in to do so. They couldn’t help me, so they gave me the email of the manager that could. Totally fine. No big deal. I emailed them requesting to cancel and I was told my membership would be paid for another month instead of ending it. I was also told my access to the facilities would end at the end of my current month, despite having to pay for another. I objected to the idea of that, because despite me moving away, that’s honestly crazy that their policy is to make you pay for another month but cancel access at the end of your current. They said they’d keep my access but I’d still be forced into paying for a service I could not use. I said again to cancel my membership I no longer live in the area, they told me they won’t. I told them not to charge my card again for a service I couldn’t use, and they stopped responding. Still charged my card. Extremely poor customer service and business practices. If you look at the reviews with similar complaints about canceling a membership, the owner will again be extremely unprofessional in the response. Enjoy the free money you force people into. I hope...
