“For someone who has never been athletic or liked to work out, I can’t believe that I signed up for CrossFit! The Reload coaches and members are so encouraging and motivating. I have pushed myself in a way that I can’t even believe. If you are looking for a supportive workout community and never get bored with workouts, then this is the place to be.”

The camaraderie among the members is amazing, and it really made me feel like part of a supportive community. The challenge of the workouts pushed me to new limits and left me feeling accomplished.

152 Chase Ave, Waterbury“Been a member for a couple of years now and I like that it’s open 24/7 365 the facility is always clean and well maintained as is the equipment. I also signed up this year for personal trading with Amy G. Cause I wasn’t getting the results I wanted doing it on my own. Amy is great I have a love hate relationship with her lol I love how involved she is and always checking on me and making sure I’m eating and drinking right and she also worked around my schedule and comes in at 4am to train me I know most trainers won’t do that and the hate part is just how I feel after our training sessions lol (jk)”
“The coaches and staff at the Hamden location are awesome! They’ve become cheerleaders and mentors for all things fitness and life related! While I was pregnant with my third child, I received support and understanding the whole way; cheering me on through nine months of pregnancy and then welcoming me back, with excitement and hugs, post Baby! I have never stuck with a fitness routine before and I credit the community that is the OTF Hamden crew!”
“I have been a member of many gyms through the years. Universal is by far the best. I have been a member since they opened their first location. The atmosphere is excellent, the equipment is superior to other gyms, lots of specialty pieces for any body part, it’s clean, the owners are always there and are more than happy to assist you including showing you how new equipment can be used. FYI, they are always adding a new pieces of equipment! Five star!”

900 Main St, Watertown“I pray they never try to redo this gym. I came back after ten years (military life) and it’s the same old rustic gym. This gym by far (I’ve been to so darn many gyms) had the best equipment and ‘old true lifting’ vibe. The vibe of this gym, the people, the equipment makes me want to get an apartment near here just to be able to grind daily here.People are here to really workout- it’s not the selfie type gym where everyone is just dressed to take a gym pic. I absolutely love this gym.”

855 Lakewood Rd, Waterbury“Finally decided to become a gym girlie. This planet fitness beats all the ideas or stereotypes I had of a gym before I even went to workout!!
The air is fresh, entire gym area is cool, bathroom and spa areas superbly clean!! There’s lockers and a shower that you can freshen up afterwards, a scale, vending machine!! The gym area is respectful as well. Everybody wipes down machinery they use so not only is the planet fitness cleaning the gym but people are also respecting others. Me personally other people’s bodily juices skeeve me out. I don’t need to worry about that here just get dressed, look cute if I want, check in at the front desk, check in my gym buddy under my plan and go have fun and go home. ”
“I live outside of the country and was visiting family in the area for a couple of months and needed a gym for the short term. I am so glad I picked this gym over others in the area! Really big space, great selection of equipment and very well maintained. Members are generally polite and courteous. Everyone seems to be good about cleaning equipment after use and racking weights. Staff are friendly. Definitely recommend.”
“Very clean and has all new equipment which is great. Only thing planet fitness could benefit from would be some classes! But otherwise this location is good and the staff are friendly and helpful.”
