“This PF does a great job of keeping everything clean and in working order. Rarely see machines out of order. As the footprint of the space is smaller than some they could cut back on cardio machines and use the space to move some of the weight machines further apart and add duplicates of popular machines.”

“From the time I walked in, the co-owners completely treated me with respect. They were so friendly, welcoming and accommodating. Everytime I walked past anyone in this gym they smiled. After researching more about the mission of the gym, and the owners ambitions, I am a proud supporter of Lions Gym. It felt so good to be apart of something with a purpose. I will definitely be back.- Judy”

“I dropped in for a class while in town for work and had a great experience. I was welcomed right away, and everyone was friendly. The gym was clean and the equipment was in good condition. I was encouraged throughout the workout and will definitely come back when I’m in town!”
“Visiting from San Antonio, TX. Nick was an amazing coach. Motivated, explained well, easy going. The gym was really big and had all the equipment needed. Location made parking easy.”
“Peak Physique is fantastic! Great coaches, great workouts and great community! Definitely has helped me become a regular at working out and I’ve noticed the great changes!”
“Amazing gym that has everything a runner, biker, nordic skier, etc. would ever want - and more! They go above and beyond providing a top notch experience. For example, they have an entire room dedicated to recovery, with Normatech leg sleeves, massage guns, foam rollers, and even an infrared sauna. Their many Woodway treadmills are the gold standard for long runs or intervals.”

4402 France Ave S, Edina“Great gym! Very clean with a lot of great equipment. Everything is well spaced, so it’s very easy to move about. The owner is on site, and is very helpful. Restrooms and changing rooms. Plenty of parking spaces. A lot of bang for your buck!”
“A tremendous workout, great variety, lots of sweating! Orange theory nails it. For those who like running, rowing, and getting some weights in this is a great fit. A well-rounded workout. Not a second is wasted, high-energy.”
“I’m not one to review many things, and when I do it’s truly for some place special. I credit Timberwolf CrossFit for helping me get my quality of life back I trusted and true ways! I started in December and was on several blood pressure medications, and the future felt bleak. After finding some consistency at Timberwolf, my blood pressure is in the normal range after trying all the things! My weight is down 30lbs. And my anxiety is feeling better. I attribute it to the caring community that is Timberwolf. The friendly coaches that care about your goals and successes, the other members that cheer you on as you finish a hard workout. It truly is a gym like no other.”
“My 12 year old daughter has 3 sessions per week and LOVES IT! Gifford Fitness helps them achieve goals! She said, "Getting your name on a brick, is the BEST!" Thank you Nick and Staff!!!”
“This is the only workout I have found so far which makes me feel like I have accomplished a lot physically and the time also passes by really quickly. I need guardrails in what I'm doing and somebody telling me what to do to be successful with fitness and I get that from Orange Theory.Take the free class as I think you're more likely than not to enjoy it”
“I have attended classes here since fall of 2021 and I can say that all of the instructors that work here are positive, adaptable, and motivating human beings. I love dancing and sweating with everyone I meet. And yes, it is very open to dancers who are beginners and people who just want to move their body and feel good. There is a place for you ?”
“Great place, the trainers and other members are welcoming and supportive; you will soon feel like you belong, no matter what your particular goal or body shape is. Also, pricing is transparent, there are no sneaky charges. Workouts have variety, which is really nice.”

4646 85th Ave N, Brooklyn Park“Ryan, Abby and Daniel have been great to work with. They met me where I was at in not having done much for formal exercise and have gotten me excited about coming for workouts and making it something that I want to continue doing.”
“Our daughter loves her trainers & her time at N1. In her year of training, she’s significantly increased her stamina, speed, quickness & vertical jump. Most importantly, she enjoys her training & looks forward to it. Because of N1, she’s the one pushing for her time in the gym.”
“Love this kickboxing-classes gym with great music during their classes! Very beginner friendly. This is the location on Selby Ave in St Paul, and it is so much fun! Every other day is weightlifting classes, and included with the membership is nutrition coaching. Incredibly positive coaches with so much experience. Classes are available Monday-Saturday in the mornings and in the late afternoon/evening. Online classes are also available. Weightlifting is with dumbbells and exercise bands, which promotes great results. No direct sparring (whew!) but rather, you often pair up and share a punching bag (often one person is punching/kicking while the other person does body-weight exercises). Lots of diversity in the classes: Black, white, hIspanic, LGBTQ+, all ages, teachers, nurses, social workers, electricians, overweight, fit…and they are incredibly open to newbies—don’t think that you have to be an amazing expert to start here. :-) They often have specials where you can get the first week free to try it out! They often have 10-week challenges (one person at the location wins $1000!) but you can join in at any time. Most people don’t wait for a challenge to start classes, they just start coming, and then join a challenge when one comes up (about four times a year). Classes are “gamified” in a really fun way that I’ve never seen before, there is email (and Facebook group) support, and everything is done to make the classes as effective, safe, fun, and supportive as possible. Wow!That’s me in the picture. You can’t really tell in the photo, but I’ve lost my Covid-gut in the 2 months I’ve been going! It’s been incredibly good for my mental health, which in turn helps me be not only more effective at work, but also be a more patient and positive family member.”

470 Cleveland Ave N #1, St Paul“Dropped in today; first time at this CrossFit box. Excellent facility, incredibly friendly and knowledgeable coaches, and nice people. Plenty of equipment and the gym is clean and tidy. I’ve a bit out of shape and needed to scale the hell out of the workout; coaches were supportive and kind. Highly recommended. I’ll be back!”

156 Hennepin Ave, Minneapolis“I’ve been coming here for 2 years and LOVE it. The instructors are friendly, encouraging, and knowledgeable and really get to know you as you become a familiar face. Nothing makes you more satisfied than a mid-workout shout-out! I enjoy strength-based workouts and the short cardio intervals are perfect for someone who doesn’t love cardio or running (me). I also appreciate the effort by staff to build community by organizing occasional social events. Makes it easy to have gym friends! I’d recommend to anyone looking for a good all-around workout! It also has very down to earth vibes, so feels welcoming!”
“I’ve been going to the FitLab for about 10 years and have transformed my overall well-being with fitness and a healthy lifestyle! I enjoy the variety of programs including boot camps, HIIT, yoga, strength and personal training, as well as boxing to name a few. The trainers are incredibly experienced, supportive and challenge us to reach our full potential. Nutrition is a primary component of all programs, including continuous learning and always sharing resources. Above all, I’ve met the most amazing humans here that I am so proud to call my friends and family! Highly recommend! ❤️❤️❤️”
