Kinetix Health Club — Local services in Lynchburg

Pros: I the gym's equipment is sufficient for powerlifting and weightlifting. There is plenty of cardio equipment that you won't have to wait for one to open up. Cons: My overall expression of the senior staff members is that they have shown to be untrustworthy and greedy when it comes down to money. They have a military discount and when I found out about it after my contract I ask if it could still be possible to receive that discount. He said he could revise it if I came back another afternoon. Well a few days later l when to that same person to remain him of the conversation and he then stated it was too late to do anything about it. So I given them the benefit of a doubt for that incident. One of the selling points they told me when I signed up, was that I asked if there would be boxing/fitness classes and they said it going to be set up for the members. Those sessions never occur and I shrug my shoulders again about the situation. At the end of my contract I ask if they would terminate my membership before a certain day so I don't get charge a month that I couldn't use. Well they didn't do that for me and charged me that extra month even through I told them I wasn't going to be in town any more and I was well over my yearly contract anyway.

This could all just be negligence but they haven't shown me the effort to work with me even through I was a...

The gym is okay at the Forest Location, I didn't sign up for both locations so I can't speak for the Fort Ave location. They have decent equipment and a lot of it, its just cramped. The staff is nice but doesn't seem to care to be there, not to mention you have to pry the information from them about your contract when signing up. The only information I received about gym rules/ operations was what I directly asked them about. My biggest complaint isn't about the gym or management but the people that use the gym. From what I've seen only about 1 in 4 people actually wipe any equipment off after they use it and there are 2 buckets of wipes easily available. People also leave loose weights and other equipment laying around, out of place, and often in front of other equipment. Its not unusual during busier times for people to stand in a group talking while blocking 3 pieces of equipment that you may need to use. I'm not saying the gym needs a ton of rules but promoting a culture of common decency and cleanliness would be nice. The equipment seems clean most days but I wipe everything off before and after I use it for reasons stated above. If there were another option available close by, I would...

Easily the best gym I’ve been to. The monthly cost is affordable, the premises is clean, and there is a vast array of training equipment.

Features include: Dumbbells up to 150#

Plenty of deadlift, bench, and squat equipment in a designated powerlifting room

A wide variety of kettlebells and bumper plates in an entire room of CrossFit style equipment including hammers, tires, battle ropes, and multiple CrossFit racks.

A huge main floor with multiple cable complexes, two sets of dumbbells up to 90# in this room, multiple types and a large quantity of benches, and plenty of cardio machines.

They have some classes too, but I have never been.

While I have encountered some older equipment like other reviewers mentioned, I have seen the gym steadily replacing and upgrading literally everything in the six months I have been coming.

Kinetix is a safe place for people of all experience levels. It has a peaceful and kind culture even amongst the gym goers themselves. You can’t go wrong coming here, and the fact that it is 24/7 is the icing...
