Anytime Fitness — Local services in Salem

I hadnt been to the gym in about a year and i paid the 40 a month no problem. As a veteran i moved out of the area months ago and been asking to cancel to no avail. I broke my hand and couldnt use it anyway. Then i said well who can afford 40 dollars a month for a service they are not using. Most of us struggle to pay for groceries. So instead of working with me knowing i havent used the club or any of it in a year he decided well ill settle for 50 dollars and you claim i still owe for something i havent used in a year. Seriously your that cheap!!!!!! I paid for your "club" for almost a year without you actually doing anything claiming its available to me. Ummmm scam artisit right there, paying for something i am not using. Well cant be that a good of a business to be that cheap. I wanted to improve my life and wanted to go to the gym. I liked it enough but then comes the scam. One you decide to join you have to for one or two years an pay biweekly. No where else makes you pay biweekly and if that isnt inconvenient enough. They get people to sign up for a year or two and lock in, if life changes you have to pay out the expensive contract. For the money its not worth it with way better facilities with way more to offer. The ymca is a way better alternative with a pool and gym, childcare, and so much more for not much more within the area. So not only did i pay my year and pay beyond 40 dollars a month for something i dont use they conveniently ignored my replies for the past few months and start claiming i owe them 100 dollars really!!!!!!!!!!!!! Come on so they are gonna split it with me as if they even have grounds. I haven't lived there the past three months. all of sudden today they claim the first time i told them i was cancelling was a month ago. Wait but now today your telling me you received it. Weird i have the other times and your still trying to scam money. If you think your gonna work out go anywhere else dont let these scam artist places fool you that they care about you. They take your money every month they act like 24 hours is so awesome; but they are not staffed so thats minimal cost of doing business. The other places near by that are anytime even have lower member rates so ofYou l can go join there and use salem and save some money that way all the you cant do that isnt really true its just justify pricing differences by the owner and policies that are set by them. By the way its just a fee to use workout equipment. Anything more you have to pay more. I am just wanting people to know they get people locked in an will take your money for providing nothing and then still try and scam you. I even say hey if you forget and let me cancel ill write a good review. But i guess he rather be enemies for 50 more dollars which is a weird number since i owe 21 dollars biweekly to even come to. Again i couldnt and didnt use your service i paid you more then enough and at least you could have done was honor my request to quit claim and move on as friends but its to good of a scam i guess to pass up and squeeze a little more out of...

I love Anytime Fitness I have been going for about 3 years off and on with different health issues but from the minute I walked through that door from day one there was someone to greet me with a smile on their face and was there for me to help get started I chose the classes because I need to work on my balance and my strength and I cannot stand without holding on to something so I do all my classes in a chair I do chair yoga which is offered on Friday and Monday mornings with Gail I recommend this class to anybody it is a workout at first I didn't think it was but I wasn't doing it right once you listen to what she says and do it at the speed she says you will feel it and it feels good it is worth the trip to the other end of Salem for me it relaxes me so much is better than going to a chiropractor once I get in that room my stress is gone and the best part is I am so fortunate that my insurance offers this for me so I don't have to pay I get to benefit from this crazy not to take advantage of this I'm sure some kind of insurance you have that Anytime Fitness can help you find some way to come and benefit from what they have you deserve it and if you're not a morning person there is Zumba and the evening's with Tina and Kathy you would definitely work out there and I even sit in a chair it is so much fun the music is so crazy and the lights just make you feel like it's your own world and for an hour you have fun nothing else matters and don't forget the amazing people that you meet in these classes they become friends and part of a special group that feel like family I try to come 3 to 4 times a week sometimes I get there more sometimes less but one thing I can tell you for sure the more I come the better I feel the less I am in pain I may hurt but I can move when I'm in pain I don't want to move these people here inspire me every time I walk through the doors once I get in the doors I have a smile on my face and I am so pumped up when I leave it goes with me I have so much more energy I used to have to take a two to three hour nap a day I no longer do that I sleep better and the best part is I have lost 68 lbs since the first time I walked through that door and it is staying off so I highly recommend Anytime Fitness everyone is so amazed at how well I am doing and how continuously I have hung in it's not hard when you feel like when you walk through those doors you're walking into a party who doesn't want to walk into a party so come join us and be ready to have fun and don't forget we believe and staying hydrated so make sure to bring your water bottle so come meet the staff they are all great and here to make your life better so for once said someone else do it for you I don't forget to tell them that the lady in the chair dancing is the one that...

This is one of the largest and most complete Anytime Fitness's I have ever been to. If you look at my past reviews you'll know that's a lot.

At first it didn't seem like it's that big. But the fact that they have a complete WING for cardio alone should've clued me in. This place was so big I had to take two videos of it and that still left out the 6 bathrooms with 4 showers.

Even jammed packed with a staggering amount of equipment, this gym still has space between so you never feel on top of anyone.

And just when you think 3 wings is all, there is a huge studio with more cardio AND squat racks AND jump medicine balls AND more kettle bells because why the heck not.

It's the little things too like the fat gripz, the myriad of different bars, the weight belts, the literal army of disinfectant bottles and towels that are never far away and make wiping down your equipment a breeze.

The ONLY thing that this gym is missing is sadly, a hack squat. It still gets 5 stars but just shy of true perfection.

Still, very impressive and if you're looking for a gym in the greater Roanoke/Salem area, I doubt you'll find better than Anytime...
