Adrenaline GX

I take back every less than positive thing I’ve ever said about this place! Fantastic gym that has only IMPROVED in the last year! I love to tell everyone I meet how great this gym is!

LOVE this gym!
I take the Fusion classes and I love the smaller class size with the personalized approach.
The classes (I’ve only taken the Fusion and Les Mills) are always challenging and adaptable for any level.
The instructors are all personable and positive. The best part, they care that you are doing things correctly.

I’ve been a member here for almost a year now. The trainers are fantastic and really push you to workout hard!
Bodypump is great when you want to do strength conditioning.
Body Attack when you want to get in some HIIT cardio. (Tina is amazing, don’t underestimate this class!)
Recently tried out their Warrior class and it has been a lot of fun. If you enjoy kickboxing, you should definitely check out this class!

My fiancée and I have been members for about 4 months now and so far we have a few different impressions:
Love the trainers — there has been almost 0 turnover since we’ve been coming here (in gym time, that’s an eternity!). They are all very knowledgeable, patient, and supportive.
We both really like the old space. It was very open with lots of room to spread out. The new space feels like you’re working out on top of each other.
The Crossfit section is awesome. Programming is very good, and they have a devoted space/​staff just for Crossfit AGX. Only gripe is it’s a little cramped.
Locker rooms, while small, are nice and new! Everything is kept fairly clean and I don’t see a lot of broken equipment.

I have been a member here for the past six months and I can’t say enough good things about this place!
I’m not a typical gym rat but I have been wanting to get healthy and improve my muscle strength and tone. I really wanted to be a part of a community where you get to know your peers and feel like you are more than just a membership card. Adrenaline GX does just that. It’s a family owned gym and the staff is warm and welcoming. With so many options in the area for fitness, you know they truly appreciate your business and want to make sure you are getting the best you can from them.
I love to take classes and they offer the Les Mills programs which I mainly do (especially the body pump). The trainers and instructors are fantastic — motivating without being pushy or mean. They make me go harder than I ever thought I could. I usually attend morning classes and you see a lot of the same people so you get to know your fellow members getting their sweat on and what they’re looking to achieve. For mean, this means accountability too. Knowing that someone will notice my absence keeps me on track to get up and go and start my day off on the right foot.
As said in other reviews, parking can get kind of hectic because it is a smaller lot, but I think it shows just how many people continue to come back. They have personalized class sessions that the AGX trainers create in addition to the Les Mills, cardio, free weights, etc. Obviously the parking isn’t that big of a headache if people are continually coming back regardless. I’ve never had too much of an issue, you just need to keep your eyes out for an open patch of grass or soon to be free space.
While I don’t need it, they do offer child care as well which can be a plus for lots of parents that need a safe environment for their kids to play in while they are able to work out. The locker rooms are clean and the showers are great. I usually get ready in the morning here and I never feel awkward or unclean. Plenty of lockers to choose from and even a sauna to use.
When you first start your membership (you can choose month to month or a one year contract) you also have a free session with a personal trainer to help determine the best way to achieve your individual goals.
Overall, I will continue to come back to AGX because I know that not only am I provided great customer service and workout options to choose from, I am also a part of a community looking to motivate others and encourage them throughout their fitness journey.

I love my gym!
I have been a member here for almost 3 years now. They offer a variety of classes you can take from Spin to Step and the trendy things like Sha’bam (which is really Zumba) these classes come with their basic membership package. You have the options to customize and take some of their more personal and trainer run programs more geared toward CrossFit training.
Location: Right off PIB, in what use to be an old warehouse. There is a fair amount of parking, but during peak hours-​GOOD GOD does it suck trying to find a place. They have tried to make it work by teaming up with the local business around them to let members park in their lots after work hours, but really its just a free for all at that point.
Equipment: 90% of it is nice, clean and shiny. Like with any gym, there are times when the equipment that is «out of order» is a pretty sizable amount and gets a tad ridiculous but for the most part they keep on top of everything as best they can. I have never run into a situation were I had to wait to use any piece of equipment like a treadmill or an elliptical. They have both free weights and machines with a good mix and variety. Exercise balls, tension bands, medicine balls and etc are offered as well, and you just have to hunt for them when you need it. They provide yoga mats for when you don’t want to sit on the cold floor during your solo workout.
Staff: I like them, some are more social then others. The younger staff are your typical young teens that run the front desk and if you ask them for more then a towel, they have to turn it over to another staff member. The majority of the trainers seem to enjoy what they do and although there is turn over, in my time there, its been the same crew with a few changes. Unlike other gyms I have used were every 30 days an entirely new set would come in.
Amenities: They provide hand towels for you up front, you just leave your keys as collateral. Each year you pay ($ 25) in the support of restocking them. There are showers in each bathroom, a sauna and ample lockers. No-​Tennis, Pool, Basketball, Racket ball, Track.
Membership Fee: No different then anywhere else, they out source their billing, if you don’t pay they send you to collects, there is a cancellation policy-​regardless of membership. Pay attention and educate yourself about what you are signing up for and you shouldn’t have any problems. I had to call their billing service once when I had to change cards, I actually spoke to a live woman that was very helpful and delayed my payments until I was able to supply them with the documents to show that I got a new card and not that I defaulted on my payment. It was a smooth process, but I did what I was suppose to so she did as well.
So the only complaints I have really is the parking situation in the evening and the lengthy time for repairs on equipment (not always the case-​but its a common theme). Other then that, the place is clean, the staff is friendly and the members of the gym are mixed and come from every walk of life.

Love love love this place!
I have been a member for the past 2 years now, and I cannot say enough good things about that place, they just made me fall inlove with working out all over again. This is coming from someone who hated working out after trying a long list of different gyms and never stayed for more than a month.
The staff is AMAZING! I mostly take classes, Bodyattack, bodypump and bodycombat my favorites. The instructors (Tina, Susan, Alice, Jac, Mandy, Rene, to name just a few) are so encouraging, supportive and super friendly. They always give options from high intensity to low intensity moves; you never feel like you’re alone trying to stay above water, you go at your own pace. Music is great, sound is even better, if you’re looking for a tight community to work out with and celebrate your victories with, join the Adrenaline family! There is always a party at 5:30 at Adrenaline! :)

I love the hot yoga classes, and the body pump w cx!

Pretty nice gym with good amenities and options. For about $ 40 a month I get a great variety of group fitness classes and various cardio equipment options. If you ever feel like an upgrade there are plenty of options to try their other group exercise programs via Groupon, Living Social, or a Fitness Challenge. Staff is mostly friendly too :)

I’ve been coming on & off to Adrenaline for a year now, always using Groupon & Livingsocial deals (and apparently Unilocal has a deal too).
The workout classes are fun. I’ve tried step class (Body Step), weight class (Body Pump), Body Attack (hardcore cardio, similar to Plyo, for those that have done P90X), and zumba. The teachers are good, but don’t give you any one-​on-​one direction (since the class sizes are very big). I wish the «Big Room» where most of the basic classes are held, is actually bigger. It tends to get crowded for certain classes.
It’s busy right after work. The 5:30 classes are usually packed, and parking can be tricky (I usually park on the street)
No complaints. I definitely would come back for the good deals that they offer, though I am reluctant to commit and cough up $ 40+ for the regular monthly membership.

So far, I’ve been a member for about a month and I love it. The classes are great and the instructors are friendly.
I took off a star for parking and crowdedness. However, of you get there before 4 and after 7 you should be ok.

Minus elliptical it has an array of cardio machines, traditional dumbell and body-​building areas, etc. What I like about it is the functional fitness area for crossfit type stuff. If you care about TVs on cardio machines, this place is not the most reliable.
Classes end too early in the evening for the most part, thereby not accommodating many schedules and ensuring classes are very crowded. Boxing classes are a pretty good workout however.
New Roswell Rd location is MUCH better for functional fitness (like a college football weight room meets crossfit), but virtually no traditional cardio equipment. Also open 24 hours, which rocks.

If you are like me and enjoy group fitness classes, then Adrenaline is the place for you. Seriously, it doesn’t get any better. I’ve been to group classes at the Y, and at LA Fitness, and Adrenaline’s blows them away. First off they have the entire line of Les Mills group fitness classes, which I don’t think any other gym in Atlanta has. Second, the instructors are amazing, motivational, and actually make working out fun. Yes parking can be tricky, and yes classes can get crowded at peak times, but those are the only negatives about this place. The management has done the best they can with the parking situation given the legal issues and have provided a shuttle service from Senior Connections (2 blocks max away). You are coming to a gym, presumably to get fit people… arrive 5 mins early, park hassle free at SC and WALK (yes, this may be a foreign concept to us Americanos). Its not a huge deal. I have never had a problem with any creepers, which is great because i absolutely HATE getting hit on while I work out, its one of my peeves. The staff is friendly and everyone there is serious about fitness! LOVE Adrenaline and will be a member as long as I live in Atlanta.

I’ve been a member here for 2+ years.
Pros: great classes, great instructors
lots of machines, large variety of machines, lots of weights
exceptionally clean and spacious bathrooms. cool saunas!
good location
got locked into a good monthly rate deal. automatic payments, can put drinks and goodies on your bill too.
cons: gets insanely crowded during the getting-​off-​work hours, 4−7pm. no parking during this time. they’ve started shuttle service from the senior citizen housing parking lot down the street, but, eh. classes get too crowded during these peak times too. i completely avoid the gym during these hours. if these are the only hours in which you can or want to work out, this place is going to be a hassle for you.
a good handful of creepers. as a female, i’ve noticed certain «cool story bro» dudes that stare, get on machines next to me, that make me feel uncomfortable. it’s really not flattering, it’s just weird. i guess this can be a problem at any and all gyms, though.
i’m a habitual debit card-​loser, so i frequently get new cards, with new numbers, and the automatic billing gets very angry with me when they can’t auto-​process my monthly payment on the 1^st of the month. within 1 – 2 days i get a notice in the mail from them threatening some stupid late payment amount of like $ 40 or $ 60. i dont think i’ve ever been charged it though. empty threats and annoying nonetheless!
i do wish they had some later classes (starting at 7 or 8pm), just so that i could attend some during the week, but i understand they may not be very popular. just wishful thinking!
I really like coming during their last hour of operation on the week days, 9−10pm. no one is there. i don’t love adrenaline, but i do like it a lot. they have other services too in the building i’ve never really taken advantage of, like a chiropractor, tanning, salon.

Really enjoy working out here.
It’s clean
It’s affordable
It has most of the weights and machines you would need
It has excellent classes
It has excellent trainers
It has a smoothie shop
It has sanitary showers
The parking can get tricky peak hours

I love this place so much! It would only be better if they had a swimming pool and tennis courts.
Here’s what’s so very great…
– A fantastic variety of classes and class schedules. Classes are offered at great times and the instructors are fantastic. They monitor form and help you out, which, in a class like BodyPump, is really needed.
– Huge classrooms for workouts with lots of mirrors to check form
– Fantastic hot yoga studio
– State-​of-​the-​art treadmills and ellipticals with individual cable TVs and fans. Yes, read that again: Treadmills and ellipticals. With INDIVIDUAL CABLE TVS. And FANS. There really is no excuse now to get to the gym to watch your favorite TV show while doing a solid workout on the treadmill. Que fantastique!
– All kinds of crazy space for free weights
– Plenty of equipment
– Private Pilates room with individual classes (comes at a steep fee though) and amazing Pilates equipment
– Free towels in exchange for your car keys
– Friendly staff
– I often forget my headphones. The music that is pumped in over the speakers is enjoyable to me and at a reasonable volume. The TVs have closed captioning so I can still watch them, even with no headphones.
What’s Not So Great…
– I work out after work, between 5:00 — 7:00. This seems to be a super busy time at the gym, making parking a bit crazy. However, I’ve never had trouble. I just park on the street and walk the way in rather than try to battle the parking lot (unless I’m going in at 4:30 or something).
– No pool (boooo…)
– No free Pilates classes
Adrenaline kills LA Fitness in my book, which always seemed pretentious, uncaring, and way too crowded. They definitely didn’t have exercise machines with TV’s!

Was good 2 years ago, but would not join again. Bad for working out solo. Awful parking situation unless you go at the crack of dawn or the middle of the day.
This gym has changed direction to almost completely cater to people who want to take classes, ignoring the needs of people who just want to work out solo. If you like Thai Boxing, Spin Classes, and Body Pump classes, then this is the place for you. It’s relatively clean and the people who work there do seem to know what they are talking about.
But forget it if you want to work out solo. Be prepared for loud music coming from 2 or 3 different areas of the gym that aren’t necessarily closed off. Loud enough to be heard even if you have your own headphones.
Also be prepared to be almost run over as you are walking by throngs of people running laps around the gym as part of a class. Or to find out there are no dumbbells under 30lbs left because people in another class took all of those.
The machines and weight equipment keep getting moved every other month to more inconvenient locations, many not in front of mirrors anymore, to make more and more room for more and more classes.
And finally, the parking situation is ridiculously awful. Unless you like working out real early in the morning (and even then it’s not always assured you’ll get a spot) or can work out in the middle of the day, don’t even bother trying to go work out. You won’t find a parking spot.
There’s an LA Fitness opening up near by soon, so I’ll probably just join that.

I’m not a big fan of gyms in general. I usually start out excited and then grow to resent them after about a year of being lazy and realizing that they’ve taken my money without anything in return.
I’m glad to say that Adrenaline has been great. They have fun classes and hire experienced staff who truly care about what they are doing. I was a member of LA Fitness for about 6 yrs and Knuckles Up for 2 and without a doubt, the others don’t even come close to Adrenaline. Even though the gym is slightly more expensive than LA Fitness, it is worth every penny since I go more often and love the classes and newer equipment.
Like everything, there are some small things that could be improved. While «growing» the gym has decided to paint on the weekend (only about 5 times that I can think of) without telling clients that fumes would be an issue. If you like watching news but don’t want to watch Fox News, you’re out of luck. But so far (about 1.5 yrs) the joy of this gym has outwayed the small issues which says alot…
I have recommended Adrenaline to all of my friends in the area.

I really like Adrenaline! It’s reasonably priced and has lots of modern equipment. They also have a smoothie and coffee bar which is convenient as well. I also like the fact that they have TVs on all of their cardio equipment which helps me get through my cardio workout [I hate cardio!!]
I also like the fact that that they play music videos on a huge projection screen in the cardio area — I thought it was a pretty cool idea. I haven’t tried any of their group fitness classes [i just stick to my strength training and get out of there], but from what I’ve seen they look are pretty good. They use the Les Mills Body Pump style classes.
The bathrooms /​dressing is very spacious and clean. This is an overall solid gym if you’re looking for a place that has lot’s space, reasonable pricing and great equipment.

So, does writing a review for my gym mean I actually *have* to be regularly working out there? haha. I’ve been busy working on a project in my yard for the past couple of months — I have an excuse! But since no one has reviewed the place yet, I figured I’d get myself a brownie point on Unilocal for being the «first to review.» Yeehaw!
Here’s the quick and dirty:
1) Clean
2) Non-​pretentious
3) Rarely crowded
4) LOTS of equipment, from free weights to the latest fancy-​schmancy cardio machines (all the cardio gadgets have private TVs)
5) Good value
There’s no pool or basketball court, but I don’t care much about that.
Now if you’re looking for «scenery», I have to say I haven’t noticed much. But I usually have my head down, getting the job done so I can get the hell home to sit on the couch. I’ll pay more attention next time and update my review if I see anything good. =)
