Very friendly, courteous, helpful staff. Classes for all levels, personal trainers available for that extra workout bonus, up to date equipment. Truly a place for everyone for health and wellness.

Clean and well-kept facility. Staff is very friendly! They offer several classes that are free with membership. Locker room is also very tidy. Only issue is that some machines have a tendency to break down a lot.

Been a member here for just shy of a year. Recently raised the prices for new cardio equipment and re arranged the gym; thought they'd add more squat racks, benches, etc but only added cardio. It's very crowded for the space it has and seems as though 16 year olds posing in all the mirrors and standing around like it's recess is the new norm. the weekend hours are absolute trash closing at 5pm. There are many people including myself that would rather spend a Saturday evening at the gym than the bar.

(Free trial based review.)This gym is priced fairly. The staff were all helpful and friendly. The workout areas and locker rooms were clean and well maintained.The area for classes has a lot of room. If classes are what you're looking for this is probably the place for you.The posted pricing is misleading. the only time you actually pay monthly is the yearly membership.I requested a membership of less than a year to get a better feel for the gym. I was told by staff that I'd have to pay the combined months including the membership fee in a lump sum during sign up.The equipment is high quality and well kept. There just isn't enough of it.Why didn't I join after my free trial?As someone that has their own independent routine, I find the general workout area to be very cramped.There was no way for me to work out without being in someone else's way. My entire experience felt incredibly cluttered and awkward.The room with squat racks is very close quarters. The designated spot for deadlifts is in the center of the squat racks. It reminded me of being in a center spotlight on the main stage without any involved party consenting to this show.The area with dumbbells and mirrors to observe your form wasn't large enough for more than three people to do so at once.As with my other observations the locker room was incredibly small. I was in someone else's way while only two of us were present.I'm not a big fan of the hours. I enjoy the gyms that allow me to enter freely with a keycard. I had high hopes for Volv because it's in the downtown area.After my free trial I received many phone calls. When I finally answered I was met with high spirits on the other end of the line. They asked if I'd be interested in coming back. I told them no and explained why. The tone of the conversation flipped instantly and I was informed my concerns would be passed along. Sorry for breaking your spirit that day, mate.If you work normal hours by societal standards and aren't as critical as I am, this gym is likely fine for you. I'm just here to share my blunt but honest review.

Overall a very nice facility. Very clean and overall very nice staff. They have basically one of each lifting machines you would need in a workout plus dumbbells, workout classes, cardio machines etc. the facility is a little small though so try to avoid busy times if you don’t want to wait for equipment! Overall very nice and would recommend to someone new to the area.

Very nice gym, and I would love to give it 5 stars. But, unfortunately I can only give it 3 stars because of the vulgar music that they play. Absolutely no reason to play music with so much swearing in it.

Great gym. Scummy business practices.I know this is somewhat on me for not reading the entire contract, but I thought it was just a typical gym monthly membership agreement. The only thing that was verbally explained to me was the ~$70 down payment—which was fine. About 8 months in, I ended up moving from Dubuque to Anamosa for work and didn’t notify till 5 days after my payment cycle, bummer. Even more of a bummer when I had to pay for the month after that because it takes 30 DAYS to process my cancellation request. Even MORE of a bummer when an additional $150 early termination charge came through with the other charge. Apparently I signed a yearly agreement without knowing. So in the end I payed for about 5 months of membership I would never be able to use.The reason I’m giving 2 and not 1 star is because it’s a neat gym, came with nice benefits, friendly employees, and I signed the agreement so it’s on me at the end of the day. However, there was just so many unnecessary payments at the end that ruined it for me.So in summary, if you’re a long term resident of Dubuque, this is the gym for you. If you’re a college student or won’t be there for long, probably going to waste some money near the end of your membership.

This gym is the nicest in Dubuque. Gym membership is a good price, it’s clean, nicely spaced out, and staff is friendly. The classes that come with the general membership are nice. Best $ for the value, if you’re questioning it they have many different membership options and a couple trials.

I was in Dubuque for a week. I stayed in the hotel across the street and I lifted their all week Everything was layed out nice But I had group of 18 year old kids trying size people up and not letting them through and standing around all the dumbbells and talking really loud. People were walking in front of me with no courtesy whatsoever while I was 2 feet across the mirror. It was a good gym for the week when I was here but a lot disrespectful people at that gym.

Best gym in Dubuque. Plenty of equipment and friendly staff. Plus I love sitting in the sauna after my workouts
