Gym is spacious, equipment is clean, owner and staff are great. Highly recommend.
I love this gym. The owner is a real role model, the trainers are all nice, respectful people and the members are respectful & inspiring. I’m moving to Florida in a couple weeks and I hope to find a comparable gym there.
I am visiting the town and went for a workout. The guy at the front desk was super cool and let le workout for free. Place is nice and got plenty of equipment. Thank you very much!
In town for an event, and if I lived in the area, I definitely would sign up. All of the staff was very helpful and accommodating to any request and followed up to make sure nothing else was needed. The sauna is amazing. They also have a nice cold plunge all the fitness equipment you could want and need
I have been bodybuilding for a long time as well as road tripping for years. This review is from a one-time visitor's perspective. The owner of the gym was the first person that greeted me. Super nice and you can tell immediately that the guy knows how to gym. The daily pass was only $10. Mind you, I initially had low expectations for the size and the quality of the gym from the unassuming facade. It has four major rooms. The first contains mostly cardio equipment and the rooms attached have several squat racks, cable machines, a Smith machine and multiple dumbbell sets. The set I used went up to 135 lbs. There are about 1-2 of each machine (for each muscle group) that range from Cybex, hammer strength, life fitness, body masters, sports art, etc and one rogue machine. A hodgepodge but well-maintained. There are two other rooms I didn't explore but looked as if they might be for classes and stretching. The last room contained kettle bells, bench presses, sleds, a giant exercise apparatus for squats, rings and pullups, battle ropes... I mean....This gym has everything. Other things I noticed: they have a water fountain made to fill up a large water bottle. The men's locker room had cubbies and three showers (one handicap accessible) and about 15 lockers that you could lock(not included). Spacious (and clean). The crowd was very motivational and diverse (age, and workout levels but mostly moderate to advanced). I went in the morning so I wasn't able to gauge the amount of people, but I was able to workout unimpeded. The gym exuded "old school body building." (Although, pleasantly It wasn't hot and didn't smell) And was definitely a diamond among the small town gyms I have visited. If you are an advanced lifter like me, definitely the place to go! Or even if you are new, the gym didn't seem to intimidate with the members being social or being attentive to their own workouts. This gym really was a playground! If I ever go back to Bangor, I will definitely visit again. Quite impressed. If you do visit, don't forget to bring some extra shoes to workout!
