Best Gym near Duluth, Georgia

The best

Excellent

This place is overpacked and extremely dirty. Looks like no one ever cleans it. Sweat drippings and stains on all equipments are nasty. Trash is always full and never any paper towels. Sauna is gross.

This gym is ridiculously hot, I asked them if they were aware how warm it was and even told me other people had complained for the same reason. They said “they don’t have control over the heat” I brought a mini home thermometer just out of curiosity, the heat was pumping through that place at 76 F. Impossible to exercise without feeling like you’re going to pass out. They seem to run out of cleaning supplies every week and it doesn’t get restocked for days. It’s really unsanitary not being able to wipe down the equipment before and after uses. Not to mention the women’s bathroom soap runs out and takes days for it to finally get refilled. I am there nearly every day and it seems like this is normal there. UPDATE: I cancelled my membership. It was not worth the price for how poorly managed this place is. You’re better off joining a different gym.

One of the more bad LA Fitness around here Perspective of Man Pros Good variation of equipment Kids club, Basketball court. Pool, Hot tub, and sauna(recently redone), training area doesn't take up the whole gym with the best equipment reserved for those with money. Only a small percentage of machines don't work Cons Bathrooms are a mess Locker numbers are missing or not in order. If you forget where the locker is good luck Not enough weight of the smaller numbers. TVs in locker rooms are from the last century. Don't need 2 drink vending machine especially when the same drink take up the entire row. Take one out and add snack. Weight scale is broken. Just get a digital one. Hire part time staff to come in during busy hours to do the following: bathroom check, put weights back, and wipe down equipment. Update all water fountains. I love 5 minutes from here so have no choice to come here sadly.

I always love coming here to work out! It’s always clean and great people work out here. If a machine breaks down, they don’t take long to fix it.

10/27/2024 It is 820 a.m and the gymbstill isn't open. Why can't this location ever open on time consistently on the weekends. Someone needs to be let go. This is the 4th time I've seen the gym not open on time on the weekend in the past 6 months. How is this acceptable?  Is the how you treat your patrons after they have paid their hard earned money? Is anyone going to do something about these on going problems?

There was a review posted with a complaint about This Gentleman(a gym employee). The complaint discussed how he worked out during his shift?? Here is what I know as a guy that is here 6 days a week in the mornings. I see him and speak to him almost every morning. He works hard and constantly. The reason this gym is clean is him!!And others of course. He is constantly puts weighs away left by others. He cleans the mirrors and sweeps the floor. Nonstop while I am here!!! He’s a super nice man and always willing to help me with a spot or workout suggestions. Generally a great human!!!🙌🏼🙌🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

My friend scanned her membership code, but it didn't go through as she used a screenshot. The manager, George H., asked her to open the app and scan again. After several attempts, he demanded her personal information and a photo, but the computer malfunctioned. He then asked her to add a guest through the app. After submitting my name and phone number, he again demanded a photo. We refused and were told to leave if we didn't comply. We waited at the front desk for nearly ten minutes, during which other members with guests were not asked for any information. It felt like we were singled out and discriminated against because of our Asian appearance. As paying members, we have never faced such treatment at any other LA Fitness location. This experience was deeply upsetting and unacceptable.

Wife and I have tried four other LA fitness locations in the area and this is the best one. While others feel too cramped or dark, this one is spacious and well lit. Others feel crowded but I’ve never felt like that here, at least when I go in the afternoon. Staff are friendly and constantly working, evidenced by how clean the place is and the weights in their proper place. Hoping for heavier dumbbells in the future though 🙏 Would definitely recommend to anyone in the area looking for a home gym

I was interested in joining and got a free trial pass. It had me select a time for an "appointment" and I went at 6:30PM last night. I told the front desk I had a trial pass and I was asked to scan a QR code in my email. That was the extent of my "appointment". Nobody showed me where anything was, nobody explained anything about the gym. So, I did my own tour and found the important things. I was less than impressed overall and will not be joining.

I didn't realize the gym pays employees to work out. Every morning, this gym employee is exercising instead of doing his job, which is cleaning. When the gym gets crowded, we have to wait for him to finish using the equipment. The general manager is aware but doesn't take any action.

2024 1213 141517 Wow. Amazing views here. Try treadmills. You get to see amazing parking lot filled with cars. Then try to change your scope, I think that's called perspective. To fellow college students. Or to our young & brilliant future generation of our planet. To the road across, then to the fellow planet fiftyness gym goers, then to the way they behave. For example, one with hoodie male young 20s with yellow jug of pipipi light yellowish water, Mixed with pre-work out mixed with chemicals mixed with hat mixed with headset to the in and out workout machine mixed with tight shirts mixed with tank tops mixed with looking around the gym with chin up with walking around different machines to the punchy punchy cushion to the big balloon deflated due to a kid doing abs with heavy body weight mixed with post workout protein mixed with fruit slushy mixed with "I'm looking for partner to meet in the gym" nothing wrong with that mixed with huh? To the mixed with... Huh? Where am I? ......... Sponsored by Chik a potle. I ain't got money to buy groceries, just kidding Drumpftito retracted his statement about his yippie. ... Huh? Good luck to me. , Sincerely Josephine to the Rose from Blackpink. Kpop. Song is You're beautiful by the Rose. Pretty good song. Future is bright.

I’ve always loved coming to this location but recently it has gone downhill. Since the gentleman that worked the morning shift left the place is gross. He used to wipe down the equipment and vacuum the floor and make sure the place was clean. Now they have dirty floors, the equipment is dusty and dirty, and the bathrooms are filthy. I’ve noticed that it’s not as busy as it used to be, and I can see why. Whomever the manager is, please address the cleanliness issue asap, please and thank you. 🙏🏽

It’s a very good PF facility overall. Perfect for people without a home gym. A few members do not clean the equipment after use. Would request the facility admins to be a bit more vigilant if possible. Note to members to please clean any equipment before/after using it. Better not to assume that the previous user cleaned it after use.

Don has very good customer service skills. He also answered any questions I had about my “PF”account and he explained my membership to the “T”. Don also guided me through the signing up process and did not make it a tedious event. Thank you , Don for a pleasant experience. Tamra L. Parker

Good place to work out, connect with locals, more than adequate equipment, overall clean, friendly staff, and who can argue the $$, which is main reason I go here. Only thing that’s a negative is rubberized smell but goes away after awhile.

Me and my husband have been working out with Cory for a few months now and he is one of the most patient and effective trainers I have ever worked with. I love his style of training. It’s challenging and he can customize your plan to fit your specific needs. It’s also nice for me and my husband to do something together that’s good for us. We look forward to our morning workouts!

I’ve had an incredible experience at Ferris Fitness and can’t recommend it enough! From the moment I walked in, the warm and welcoming environment made me feel right at home. The staff is always friendly, and the gym is well-equipped, but what really sets this place apart is the ease of using the app for booking classes and tracking progress. I’ve been working with Julie, and she’s absolutely amazing! This was my first experience with a personal trainer, and I couldn’t be more excited about the results. Julie knows exactly how to push me to my full potential, and I’ve already seen significant improvements in my strength and fitness. With her guidance, I’m confident I’ll continue to see real lasting results. The monthly weigh-ins and 3D body scans are a great way to track progress and keep me motivated. Ferris Fitness is a top-notch gym with fantastic trainers, and I’m so excited to continue working with Julie as I work toward my fitness goals!

Ferris Fitness Gym is a standout facility that sets itself apart from the rest by focusing not just on fitness but on total health and wellness. From the moment you step into the gym, you’re welcomed into an environment that feels both supportive and inspiring. I’ve had the pleasure of working with two exceptional personal trainers, Micah and Cory, and their professionalism and dedication are unmatched. They genuinely care about helping you achieve your goals, tailoring workouts to your individual needs, and pushing you to reach your full potential. What’s remarkable is their holistic approach—it's not just about lifting weights or burning calories. Both Micah and Cory take the time to understand your overall health, emphasizing proper nutrition, mental well-being, and sustainable progress. Micah’s energy and encouragement make every session something to look forward to. He’s incredibly knowledgeable, always introducing innovative exercises while ensuring proper form and injury prevention. Cory brings a motivational yet calm presence to every workout, focusing on building strength while fostering a deeper connection to your physical and mental health. Ferris Fitness Gym, paired with trainers like Micah and Cory, isn’t just a gym—it’s a space where you can grow, transform, and thrive. Whether you’re a seasoned athlete or just starting your fitness journey, this is the place where your goals are truly valued, and your health is a priority. Highly recommended!

Ferris Fitness has been such a game changer for me. While my focus is on weight loss, the mental clarity I have gained has been a bonus. Everyone at the gym is so nice and welcoming. Cory has been amazing with my fitness program! If you are looking for a place to train, this gym is it! They have private, semi-private, and group fitness.

I’ve been training with Cory for a little while now, and I can’t recommend him enough! Each session is thoughtfully planned, with a great mix of challenging exercises that keep me engaged and progressing. What I really appreciate is how Cory tailors the workouts to suit my goals and fitness level, always making sure I push myself but never to the point of burnout or injury. Beyond just the workouts, Cory brings such positive energy to every session. He’s encouraging, knowledgeable, and genuinely invested in helping me succeed. I’ve already noticed improvements in my strength, endurance, and overall confidence. If you’re looking for a trainer who’s not only skilled but also makes fitness fun and sustainable, look no further!

Jonathan, is working with my son to recover from an injury. He is very dedicated to working with my son’s specific deficiencies to get him back to optimal sports performance. The most important difference that I see is that my son reminds me about his sessions and he actually wants to go. Rather than me usually having to drag him to other places. Jonathan is very knowledgeable about fitness as well as mental health when dealing with student athletes. I am signing my college age son up for training next.

Stephanie is an excellent trainer! She is patient, kind and encouraging!

Wonderful Trainers and Equipment. Really helping realize our goals

I've been working with trainer & coach Steve Collett for several months now. He's awesome. He does a detailed initial assessment and personalizes each workout. It's a smaller studio, that has everything you need to get in the best condition of your life. You don't just go in and work on weights. It's an all of the above holistic perspective including nutrition, strength, cardio and flexibility. I'm 55 years old and well on my way of being in the best overall condition I've been in my life, including my 23 years in the Army.

I've been a member of TNT Fitness for almost three months, and the experience has been transformative. The atmosphere is welcoming and charged with energy, making every visit something to look forward to. Coach Jonathan's dedication and expertise are evident in every session. He crafts tailored plans, explains each exercise's purpose, and keeps workouts fresh and varied. His coaching style blends encouragement and discipline, pushing me to my limits while ensuring proper form.If you're serious about reaching your fitness goals, I highly recommend TNT Fitness and Coach Jonathan.

Paid $200 for the “dietician “ to print off a page out of a high school heath class paper. The gym is ok with good people working out. Stephen, the lead trainer, is quite arrogant. Not awful , but for your money I’d explore what other local options you have available before committing

First time CrossFitter coming from a 4-5 day body building split routine and even being fairly experienced, I still learned a lot from their foundation class. I was starting to get burnt out after many years of doing the same style of body building. The coach here, Steven spends a lot of time teaching proper form to avoid getting injured, something you rarely see out of coach’s in general. I also liked the fact this gym is more strength training biased although there are individuals at all levels of experience, age and physique. That atmosphere is very welcoming and everyone exudes the same friendly attitudes. If you’re looking for a CrossFit gym, I’d recommend giving them a try.

I've been coming here for almost 3 weeks. It's been an awesome journey so far. Steve has been great at helping me learn since I've never done crossfit before going to his gym. Every single person I've met in that gym has been so welcoming and nice to me. I really look forward to my future at Chattahoochee Strength.

I've been working out at CSF since October 2020. Doing nothing but just following the workout plan I've been able to make reach my fitness goals and perform at a level I didn't know I could. Coach Lewter makes sure that the gym is filled with humble and supportive people all working to just be a better version of themselves. Everyone is friendly, supportive, and fun. All you have to do is show up, do the program, and you'll see improvement. Do it!

By far one of the premier gyms in the Atlanta area. The knowledge of the coaching staff and their desire to help you is outstanding. Coaches like Steven take it beyond just a workout and help lead you down the road to a better lifestyle. You'll find more than a gym here, you'll find a community of like minded people all striving and working together for a similar goal. I highly recommend you come in today!

I’ve been working out here for more than a year now, this is the best gym in the area. No nonsense membership clauses, everyone is welcoming and friendly, and the place has an old school feel to it. Can’t recommend enough.

I have been coming here for two years straight! The equipment is great! The staff is great and the trainers here are very nice! I 100% recommend this gym for anyone! From beginner to advanced!

Awesome old school gym! Will be my go to spot when ever I'm in town.

Great gym. The equipment is overall good, it has a friendly environment, and no disturbances in the gym.

I dropped in and picked up a couple of competition kettlebells for a great price! The customer service was great. I'll definitely stop in if I need any more equipment!

My daughter started out on half year last year when she was in kindergarten. I was a little apprehensive about her being on full year this season with her being so young but she has grown so much as a 1st grader and has gained many skills quickly. Coach Cameron was so excited the other day when she got her back handspring! It’s encouraging for her to see how proud her coach is of her! Her confidence has also grown. She loves her team and all the girls! It's important to me that my daughter truly loves being a Jayhawk, and she loves her cheer coaches which makes me happy!

This gym has been fantastic for my daughter in her cheer and tumbling journey! Supportive coaches. The coaches really have their eyes open for opportunities for these girls to grow and push them to do so. I'm so happy with the development I've seen in my daughter since joining Jayhawks. Front desk staff is approachable and helpful. And if you value communication, this is the gym for you. For any upcoming events or changes I get timely notifications in multiple different ways.

My daughter loves cheering at the Jayhawks gym. Each year she navigates new teams, teammates, and coaches while building confidence and character. She has participated in various tumble classes, stretch classes, and stunt classes through the years and experienced supportive coaches at all levels who have safely pushed her to be the best version of herself. She has progressed consistently and learned that hard work and determination pays off.

Have been a pert of this gym as an athlete myself many years ago and now happy to call Jayhawks home for my daughter! No where else we would rather be! This gym truly is a family! My daughter has been a part of the Jayhawks program for 7 seasons now and has grown not only as an athlete but learned so many valuable lessons off the mat as well thanks to the amazing coaches and staff!

My daughter has been with Jayhawks for 11 years now and it is truly like a family to her and all of us. She is coached by some of the best in the industry and they truly love her like their own. It’s more than just cheerleading here at Jayhawks. I highly recommend them to anyone and everyone!
