Red Run Fitness

So it’s been a little over a year since my last review and I still love these guys. Brad has organized a workout program for my organization. The staff members and I have a certified nutritionist and personal trainer come ON SITE, they bring all of the equipment, jams, and energy, right to our place of work. They accommodate every level of fitness and their price was extremely reasonable. I initially set up a 5 week program as a test run. It went so well we just ‘renewed’ it for another 5 weeks. Lovin’ these guys.

This place is great! I thought the staff was very friendly and they pushed me enough to ensure I was getting a good workout. I really liked the iPad to tv feature that timed each of the exercises. I’m also glad they gave us time to stretch beforehand and after the workout. Since I’m sore today, I know I got a good workout in. I even beat my record for a plank! Overall, a nice facility with a fun and motivating vibe.

I really enjoyed my workout at this place. All of the staff was friendly and courteous, and took a vested interest in who you are (asked questions, engaged, etc.) which was incredibly refreshing.
Neat features:
–TV synced with iPad’s to count down time for exercises and for rest. This was really neat and a nice transparent motivator — I like having a proper end point and goal to work toward and that helped supplement so you weren’t trying to just hear one person say how long you have over the noise of the gym.
— TRX — one of my favorite moves and they have TONS of straps. Was awesome that this was incorporated into the workout
— Crossfit/​bootcamp like equipment like the sled, ropes, rowing machine, and boxes for jumping. Neat because I haven’t had the opportunity to do workouts with those sorts of materials before and I really enjoyed it
— Kettlebells — another Crossfit type workout item that I LOVE and they ran a good type of challenging workout with these. Really benefited from that and learned some new, safe techniques with these that I will definitely continue to employ
— Enough trainers dispersed for a class to help give some individual attention to each person there
Just enough space for what they need, and surprising variety. They even offered us an additional free group class card to come and try another one of the types of classes that they offer.
Thank you Red Run for a great experience!

I’ve decided to switch up my gym routine and go with a personal trainer to get into top notch shape before my wedding. As soon as I walked in, I was pleasantly greeted by one of the co-​owners name Brad. I informed Brad that I was looking for a personal trainer and expressed my needs. He suggested that I stay and try out the boot camp class he was having that morning. The class was great and so was his one on one sessions that I did the next day. I immediately joined and will update my review with results in the next few months. Thanks Red Run Fitness Team!

I’m only writing this update to bring the not recommended reviews to everyone’s attention. I know that Unilocal has an algorithm or some really mathy method for filtering reviews. But really, I must have drank the Red Run Fitness kool aid because I like this place as much as the people who wrote the other reviews.
I know that sometimes people look at a place’s rating, then take into consideration the number of reviews. So, don’t let the small number of visible reviews influence you negatively… just give them a shot. :)

I don’t know the exact opening date, but I know that they ARE OPEN! The studio is spacious, plenty of equipment for any kind of training. Let me be clear… this is a not a pay for the year, membership kind of gym. The gym has focused classes that you can sign up for, personal training classes, and next on my list to try: Advanced Stretching Techniques. I like lifting weights, focused training, and… people that know what they are doing! All of those things are at Red Run.
I have also purchased a gift certificate for my husband to try out the gym, as Red Run has an On-​Site golf fitness program (with a 100% money back guarantee… so I figured I had nothing to lose). He hasn’t tried it yet — but I’ll have to update my review when he does try it out. I purchased x2 30 minute sessions (and the initial assessment is free of charge) — so technically 3 sessions. I think they also have a 6 week program for golfers — but there’s no way I can solidify my husband to show up 6 weeks straight at the same time… so they offered me an alternative/​individual sessions.
They have TRX’s, weights, cardio…
Brad is a great trainer. He’s been able to answer all my questions about nutrition and he’s genuinely concerned about my goals. He knows I’m not looking for weight loss, I’m looking for toning — and that’s what the work-​outs are geared towards. He also very quickly picked up on my stubbornness and doesn’t let me self diagnose/​injure myself (…fellow nurses, I think you can relate).
One of the COOLEST things they have is a Polar HIIT class. The whole class wears a cardio monitor and you can see how you’re doing in the class, REAL TIME. I have my own cardiac monitor, but it’s really neat to see your results displayed at the front of the class on the big screen TV (which. doesn’t look so big anymore when you put it in a large gym space, so I think there are plans to get a bigger, big screen TV).
I never feel the «pressure» to pay for a bunch of classes I’m not going to use. I also like that I can just pay for what I go to — I don’t have to sign up for a year, month-​to-​month, etc.
The location was easy to get to, plenty of parking — but I will admit, I drove past it the first time! Once you know where it is, you won’t miss the turn, but there’s nothing that really jumps out at you first time around. Big spacious windows, lots of natural light.
Hmm. not too much else to say? Really like it there, and I’ll be going back for more!
Stretching class is next on the list for me to try… and they are organizing a boot camp for my coworkers at my place of employment.
