4367 Merle Hay Rd, Des Moines“CF Merle Hay is my go-to drop in spot in the Des Moines area for quality coaches, equipment, and workouts. Each time I’m here it just seems to get better and better! 11/10 recommend! Coach Caileen and Vincent were the best :)”
“CrossFit Valley Juncion is my 2nd home. I have been a member for 5 years and it has been one of the best investment and decisions I have made. From the owners to the coaches, they are all friendly, professional and caring! I will definitely recommend this gym to anyone!”
“I was excited to start the 6 week weight loss challenge. I wanted to lose weight and get healthier but I also knew it would be hard. The coaches and members are very encouraging. My friends and family gave me motivation and encouragement that I needed also. The diet was very strict but you are eating every 3 hours. The private facebook groups were nice to see everyones progress, and ask questions. I am happy to say that I was able to lose 28.6 lbs in my first 6 week challenge. I had the opportunity to do a second 6 week challenge.The second 6 week challenge was tougher for me. I was able to lose 20 lbs in the last 6 weeks. It's crazy that I have lost 48.6 lbs in 12 weeks. I know I wouldn't have been able to lose this weight on my own. The trainers are so awesome, push you and want you to succeed. Thanks to Elite Edge for the support and pushing me in the workouts.”
“22nd Street is the place to be for power lifting. There’s an opportunity for you in any spot of life you’re in. The knowledge and professionalism is apparent and appreciated. Stop spending time looking elsewhere for a power lifting community and show up here to get physically and mentally better.”

“I have been a Anytime Fitness member for a couple of years. I started coming to this particular gym during a management change over and the new owners Amber and Colton are awesome individuals. I have been involved with both small group and one on one personal training time and both owners pushed me to my limits and it was best thing that has ever happen to me. The gym is small with an old school feeling and it's never over crowded which I love. The owners take pride in their establishment and strive to make improvements to give their members best expirence. I highly recomend checking out this gym location.”

Seems like they lost quite a bit of business to crunch but it’s good for the rest of us that stuck around. Less crowds are always good”
