After having my 4th child last summer, surgery for two hernias, and nearly about to turn 40, I decided it was finally time to shed the extra weight and get back in shape. I joined Anytime Fitness in January, and didn’t expect much due to my own lack of discipline with dieting and exercise. However, with the help of my awesome trainer, Alex, not only have I shed about 13 pounds in a few months, but I have also gotten toned up and made a lifestyle change in diet that is very easy to maintain. In addition to her excellent motivational skills, being tough while also being very in tune with each of her clients’ needs, Alex also sets up weeks-long fitness challenges that I never pictured myself doing. I am amazed at how much she has motivated me. With this current 8 week challenge, I have now been to the gym four or five days each week and am even exercising at home when I can’t get to the gym. In addition to Alex, the rest of the staff is extremely friendly and accommodating and the facility is top notch. It is an extremely clean, modern, and inviting community and environment. I never thought I would enjoy going to the gym so much! I would highly recommend this gym to anyone who was interested in getting into shape and improving...
Read moreAnytime Fitness North Kingstown used to be my kind of gym. It has a nice mix of machines, weights, bands, balls and other equipment. There is a comfortable space where members can do their own functional fitness routine and stretching. However, over the last year I've had some concerns. Some of the treadmills broke, and it took a long time to get them fixed, 6 months in one case. The streaming service to the treadmills is spotty. This is often due to a loose cable connection, and tightening fixes the problem. However, now some of the streaming channels are no longer available. This may not seem important to the staff, but it is important to me because that is how I pass my time on the treadmill. The training classes are small which is good, but the trainers have turned over and some are less experienced. This should get better with time.

Read moreI currently use the N Kingston AF as it's always super clean and the members always wipe down after themselves to minimize the spread of CV. The owner is also very nice along with the staff and they're always making sure things are clean - especially the bathrooms. The gym is small compared to a Golds but it's got everything you need to keep in shape. Since there is only one machine per weight exercise it pays to find a time that's a little less crowded so you don't have to wait on anyone. It's never really all that crowded on the cardio machines so you don't have to wait on those. It's just limited weight machines as all AF are small. I've been to just about every gym nationwide and this is the best option in the Jamestown, Newport area. There's also a water bottle fountain so make sure you have a bottle. I'm glad it's not a water fountain as people always put their mouths on it
Hope...
