1.
You can get a 10 day pass for free online. Click on the 24 Hour Fitness link above
and go to their website, where they have free 10 day passes you can print out
and take in! There’s also a club finder to help you find the club(s) closest to
you.
2. On your first visit to 24 hour fitness you have to make an
appointment so make sure you call first before just showing up. If no one is available
you won't be able to go in.
3. Your supposed to make an appointment on each
evaluation visit to 24 hour fitness but they are a little more lax on this. The
reason is they want your sales rep to know your coming in.
4. Prepare for
a High-powered Sales Pitch. The 24 hour fitness sales staff wants to sign you
up so be prepared.
24 hour
fitness personal trainers are available in case you want to use them.
Class
Instructors
The instructors at 24 Hour Fitness are good, overall. I have
had some wonderful instructors in specific classes, who were full of energy and
enthusiasm, which is helpful when you’re running out of wind! In general, the
instructors are extremely competent in their specific areas (step aerobics, spinning,
kickboxing, etc.) and they are pretty good about helping new folks out and still
challenging the more experienced members.
24
Hour Fitness has less staff members on the floor than any of the other gyms I’ve
visited. In the weight rooms and equipment areas, as well as in the cardiovascular
equipment areas, I usually have to look around and really flag someone down if
I need help
Motivated Members
Like the instructors, 24 Hour Fitness has a wide range of members. They offer
Senior Fitness classes, and attract a fairly large senior attendance during the
day
Overall Impressions
Overall I have been very pleased
with 24 Hour Fitness. I enjoy the classes, I enjoy the people and I enjoy the
overall environment. The staff (for the most part, except a couple rude front-desk
clerks) are friendly and helpful, and the members are always ready to help out
when I’m baffled by a piece of equipment in the weight room.
