Rock Fitness Center — Local services in Ringgold

I’ve been going here for about six months. It’s a few minutes from my house.

Pros; Clean and friendly environment, its perfect for people of any and all skill levels. If you’re just getting started, they’re helpful and you can feel free to ask others around you and receive help. OR if you’re in the zone and want to just pick up heavy stuff and put it down and be left alone, it’s good too! Overall one of the better gyms I’ve had the pleasure of going to.

Cons; Honestly, only one main con. I WISH they were 24 hours. I’ve always said that fitness isn’t a hobby, its a lifestyle. I’ve always worked shift work and used the gym as decompression after hard shifts, both previously in law enforcement and the military. It helps more than therapy in most instances. So not being able to have help fighting those demons when they hit late at night kinda sucks. BUT, I can understand and respect the business model there. I just feel with the cost, it could be justified to go to 24/7.

But that’s about it. Outstanding gym, has everything ya need, it isn’t staffed by pushy salesmen, rather I’ve had some awesome conversations with the staff, and the merchandise they do have is reasonably priced. I’ve enjoyed my time there and look forward to a future with them as my new...

Tons of cardio and workout machines. Lots of free weights. Large individual showers, plus a sauna, pool, racketball court, basketball court. From 8:00AM to Noon, they offer childcare, as well as 4:00PM to 8:00PM, included with membership. Great deal if you need that.

The staff is friendly, and will show you around or answer any questions if you need. A minor inconvenience that there aren't any water fountains or refill stations, but c'mon people: everyone knows to bring their own water bottle to the gym. Let's be adults here.

There are few pieces of equipment that are kind of to the side that aren't in operating condition. My brother and I have been going every morning, M-F, and we've seen great improvements. Plus, being able to shower privately and go on straight to work is a major deciding factor for me in choosing a gym. We're doing month-to-month instead of an annual contract because he isn't going to be in town for a whole year. But, nevertheless, I have enjoyed Rock Fitness, and will continue to do so for the remainder of my available...

I walked into the Rock Fitness Center in Ringgold, Ga.. to ask questions thinking to maybe join. I had read the reviews and had no appointment. The owner, Tyler, was at the front desk just starting to eat his lunch. He was very courteous and got up and showed me around and then let me look into the womens' locker room and pool. When I came back to the desk I had more questions as to fees and best times, classes available. He answered every question, signed me up,made me a name tag, and gave me a printout. I especially was interested in the pool and he explained they were required to check it twice a day by state law. They had a separate womens' workout room and water and senior workout groups. Silver sneakers covered my fee and my friends would have a lower rate for age if their insurance did not cover. My first impression was really good and I will add another review after going for awhile. I am so happy this is closer to where I live and not as crowded as some other gyms! The previous negative reviews did not seem to be...
