GameChanger Madison — Local services in Madison

I attended this gym for almost three months, and while the experience wasn’t bad, it wasn’t ideal either. The 'personal training' label is a bit misleading, as the sessions are actually small group classes with six people (the maximum they can fit in the space). Unfortunately, they don’t have enough equipment to comfortably accommodate even this small group; for instance, they didn't have enough sandbags for everyone, which was frustrating.

For the price, I expected a bit more flexibility and professionalism. The gym’s cancellation policy requires a one-month notice, which is common, but they’re extremely rigid about it. I’ve been a member at other gyms in the area that were much more accommodating in this regard. This lack of flexibility led to me paying for an extra month even though I wasn’t happy.

The gym does seem to cater to an older demographic, which might suit some people, but I found it wasn’t the best fit for me. The trainer was good, though, and clearly put effort into the sessions.

GameChanger has made me stronger and fitter in a wonderful, supportive environment. After quite a fitness rut and exploring other options in the area, I am so glad that I chose GC Madison and their small group personal training approach. Over the years, I've tried EVERYTHING from HIIT circuit training to spinning to pilates to boxing and at this stage where my focus is on building strength and maintaining agility, GC fit the bill.

Coach Dave (and all the GC coaches) are so good at knowing their clients and challenging every individual. I'm stronger and fitter than when I started and no longer have knee pain or the aches I used to. Coach Dave is conscious of everyone's specific abilities or limitations and ensures that exercises are modified appropriately. He gives feedback on good form so that everyone is safe in their workout. The challenges, wellness seminars, nutrition support, and community make working out with GC really worth it toward achieving long-term health goals.

Gamechanger Madison is a fantastic gym. The coaches at Gamechanger work really hard to create an environment that encourages their members to improve their overall health every day. The coaches are professional, knowledgeable about exercise and nutrition, truly caring, supportive and encouraging. During each session they will tailor the work out to your specific needs making sure the exercises are challenging and that each client is performing them correctly. In the past 3 years of working out at Gamechanger I have improved my strength, endurance, and flexibility. I can't say enough good things about the coaches at Gamechanger Madison, they helped me through injuries, cancer treatment, and chronic illness- though all of that I was able to keep coming to the gym because they took the time to really create modifications that worked for me. ...
