Best Gyms with 24 Hour Access near Gloucester, Massachusetts

The gym is nice and has all the equipment I need. I really liked that fact that the gym requires you to clean the machines after finishing your workout the only problem is that the some of the staff is not respecting this rule and neither his clients.

The gym has been spruced up with fresh paint and some new equipment and it looks and feels great. Highly recommend this gym (open 24/7 too!).

Summary: Great for beginners, physique training, and the general fitness crowd. This is not a gym for strength sports. This gym is in a small space, so it is a little crowded. For most folks, I'd say it's well-outfitted: It's about 50/50 cardio and weight machines--there's one cage rack and a smith machine, as well as about 4-6 static bench variations (flat, fixed incline, etc.), as well as a bunch of cable machines. There is not a deadlifting platform--there is a heavy foam/rubber mat on the ground, but not a true platform. There's an upstairs barre/studio space with TRX, tumbling mats, a heavy bag, and a speed bag with some community gloves. The facility was clean, well-lit, and all of the equipment looks to be either new or well-maintained. The staff that took me on the tour was friendly, helpful, and knew almost everyone coming through the door. All of the above are great reasons to go to this gym. I am a powerlifter looking for a gym closer to my home, here's why it doesn't work for me (for context, I have a background in training for weightlifting, powerlifting, and strength+conditioning): (1) the barbell equipment is limited. There is only one cage rack, with a limited selection of weight (2) the deadlifting pad is not an adequate replacement for a platform; additionally staff told me there is a rule against "slamming weights" in this facilitiy--to their benefit, they did qualify that some weights are too heavy to gently put down, and that the expectation was for members to control the eccentric of all weighted movements. Just exercise caution with this one if you're lifting heavy. (3) this gym prohibits video recording/facetiming of any kind on the training floor. This is pretty reasonable, and I don't think this is an issue for 98% for gym goers--for the 2% that have a coach who wants training footage, this just isn't a good fit.

Modern gym with nice variety of equipment. The employees and trainers are great people. Also offers various classes that cost little to attend. Clean, plenty of parking, open 24/7. What's not to like?

Well maintained and clean for a place that is open 24hrs, but very overpriced. The scanner at the front door is broken so you have to be let in from somebody who is already inside. The 3 times I have been here, there have been no employees working, and to those points, anybody could walk in without a membership. There are far too many cardio machines and the lifting machines while new/well maintained have terrible functionality. It is far better to spend the extra 10 minutes to drive to the MAC in Manchester.
