You'll sit down with a coach for a free intro session where we'll talk about your goals, your training history, and what you're looking for. From there, we'll recommend the right program and walk you through the facility so you feel completely comfortable before your first workout.
Wear comfortable athletic clothes and supportive shoes — cross-trainers or lifting shoes work best. Bring a water bottle and a towel if you'd like. We have everything else you need at the gym.
