They didn't answer me but the Tapirulan works if you use force with your legs you can see there is some problem with the engine

I’m a traveling nurse always on the lookout for a good gym when I get into town and Fords gym was amazing. There is a certain atmosphere about the gym that will bring your training to the next level, but Do not be intimidated this gym is great for beginners as well. Everyone was so welcoming and helpful. I would bring this gym back home with me If I could. If you are ever in Madison this is the only gym you should be going to! Also shout out to Andrea she is an an amazing boxing coach if you are interested! I took the beginners class and it was well worth it.

Really good, old school gym. Equipment is older, but fully functional. The type of stuff Arnold and Lou used. Multiple squat racks, deadlift platforms and a chalk bowl! It’s tough to find a gym these days that allows chalk, let alone provides it. No IG influencers recording their workout here, just good people getting a great workout. I will definitely be back the next time I am in town!

At time of writing, Ford's has been my regular gym for over a year. It's an incredibly welcoming and friendly place, even to those who were knew to lifting like myself. With every piece of equipment one could need, Ford's couldn't be a more perfect place to get my workouts in throughout the week.

I exclusively train for powerlifting, so I was skeptical of the gym at first because on the surface it looks like a retro boxing gym. Spending just 5 minutes in that gym I felt silly about my initial judgement.Pros: Cheap compared to large commercial gyms, niche equipment (such as different types of bars, banded deadlifting platform, turf area of the gym), many power racks, heavy dumbbells upwards of 140 pounds. They also have a little shop to buy equipment, merchandise, or protein bars/drinks after your workout. Anything you want to train, they got it.Cons: Can be busy and crowded at times, some of the equipment placement is kinda awkward, not enough adjustable benches in my opinion.The pros vastly outweigh the cons. This is what I think of when I imagine a 5 star gym.

Ford’s Gym is the last real gym in Madison. The staff could not be more professional, all equipment is well maintained and cared for, and the gyms environment encourages focus and hard work in a way that is near impossible to find these days. Hands down the best gym I’ve ever been to
