My sister and I were in town for my grandfathers funeral. We wanted to work out so we looked for places to go. we went to golds gym, anytime fitness and other places. That all wanted ten to TWENTY dollars per person for each DAY we wanted to use there gym. Thank goodness we found Fit Republic! They were so nice. They gave there condolences and didnt charge us to use there gym. These are quality people. If I every move back to this area there is no other gym I would use.

The staff is mostly friendly. The customers are friendly, most of the other members. I dont like that it is hot in there and the staff told me the part is on order. I think that is a lie. Its been two weeks and it still isnt fixed. The amenities are good for the price I think. We will see how things progress. I signed up a friend to go to help me with my workouts and now that I am getting results I will cancel her membership. If there is any problem with that I will write another review. At this time I am Satisfied with the services they provide and feel it is a good value.

This is a great little gym. Its none of the hassle like the big gym, most of the people there are polite & the employees are great. They have all sorts of classes, my favorite is the kickboxing because your so tired afterwards its like you worked out for over 2 hours but its only 1. Try it out!

I had originally given this gym a high rating, but if you sign up here you cannot cancel over the phone or at any other location. So be sure to go in to cancel before you move or youll be screwed. Keep in mind that this seems to be the only location in this chain that refuses to assist you over the phone, Im sure other locations are wonderful. Consider signing up at the 3643 Elkhorn location, which has friendly, helpful staff and lots of parking.

Im 18 and Ive been going to this gym for quite awhile now and I just wanted to say that it is a decent gym, coming from a fitness background. The staff is friendly and most of the other customers are also friendly. I get my work done everyday without any problems. I cant complain with the hours, when it comes to the gyms sanitation it is always clean and welcoming for others to enjoy themselves and to have a great workout.

Horrible place. Tried to take my son in as a guest to see if it would be something he would like and the front desk told me that anyone under 18 could not go in as a guest. They then said that anyone over 14 could get their own membership and go in without an adult. Am I missing something here? Yes i am. Its all about the money for these people. No customer service. It would have been nice if they worked with me about the confusion. Now they lost 1 member and a future member. STAY AWAY PEOPLE!!!!!!!

This gym, now called Fit Republic, has been very inspiring to me. For the past 2 1/2 years I have had excellent customer service. As soon as I walk in the gym, I am greeted with a smile. All the employees are helpful, show concern when needed, and are truly working with you to be fit. The manager Chris cares about his customers and encourages fitness and health. I really like his positive attitude.Fit Republic is a nice gym to come to. I like working out with all the different machines and free weights. Majority of the customers are very friendly.Fit Republic has recently added more equipment and a new room for the evofit classes. Coach Amanda is so awesome! She is knowledgeable and shows great enthusiasm. I like that she explains the workouts and demonstrates proper techniques. Actually, they have several excellent coaches. I have learned from them all. I would encourage anyone to give this class a try at least once.Thank you Fit Republic for all that you do to help us keep in shape and fit. :)

From the bay area and went here and had a over due balance i didnt know about and the general manager was a total douchebag about it. Will not be renewing my membership here I will get one somewhere else that has better customer service.

Beware!!!! We had a membership through Fitness Evolution (the old name) for years. We cancelled the membership 11/5/17. We paid our December dues which is fine, thats in the contract. then they charged January dues and now February dues. We brought it to their attention and they refused to credit the unauthorized charges back! They lost the cancellation paperwork and somehow thats our fault??!?! It sucks to have to do a charge back for Fit Republics stupidity. ITs not even a nice gym....sheesh.

If I could I would rate this place less than poor! Long story short, they do not have their act together. I was told the account I had with them as closed as of June 2012 which I did not close yet they said it had been cancelled. Was not charged for them from July 2012 - January 2013. Feb. 2013 I started getting billed again from them, and was billed again March 2013 so I contacted them. When I went in, I was given grief. I contacted corp. office and was told pretty much that it was all my fault and no credit back for the 2 months they charged me. I was then told I would not be charged again, and well I was charged AGAIN in April. This led me to have to contact them yet AGAIN! The only thing they said I would get a credit back for is for the ONE month I already paid for and thats going to take up to 90 days. RUN away from this place. DO NOT join Fitness Unlimited / Fit U / Fitness Evolution! Planet Fitness is WAY better and has their act together.

Been coming here two years. Recently theres been a real lack of responsibility of employees to actually show up to work. Last two saturdays in a row, the employee responsible for opening the gym at 7 A.M. has not shown up. I left today, Sat 8/26/2017 at 7:20 A.M. when still no one had shown up. Just unacceptable. I do not pay a monthly fee so that i can show up and not be able to workout before i have to go to work. I can understand it happening once, but multiple times and even days in a row is messed up. Ill be looking to get back my monthly fee for this month.

Love where this Fitness Center-Fit Republic (formally Fitness Evolution) is heading, because of new management and name change, this club will continue to be an affordable place for all. The best Evofit classes with awesome instructors. (Amanda, Jayla & James) The manager Chris listens to members and does a good job keeping equipment in good working condition. No contracts and you cant beat their prices. Take advantage of your FREE Evofit class and youll be hooked.

Beware! DO NOT waste your time with this place. They have been charging our account even after we cancelled our membership. You can only reach them through email. Their service is poor and their attitude is prove it. Bad bad bad company. They are thieves and somewhat proud of it. Warning people on every site possible. Hit THEM where it hurts. Go to another gym.

Review №22

This is a rebranded Fitness Evolution. The staff members are nice and the classes seem pretty popular, but cost a little extra. If you pay for 18 months of your membership all at once, you can get a big discount. The equipment breaks often and is rarely repared within 2 months of breaking. The locker rooms are dilapidated and in need of serious rennovation.

Review №25

I wanted a cheap gym for 3 months so I thought this was the gym. They told me when signed up, no contract, I could pay for my three months in advance and then when it was up I wouldnt have to cancel or give notice or anything, just stop paying. Well three months went by, I was automatically charged for the 4th month on my card (they didnt tell me it was staying on file when I prepaid months 1-3) plus a $5 fee which was unknown to me. Everytime I call or try to go in the manager is not there so I cannot yet cancel and now I learned that to cancel I must still pay an extra month of dues (5 months paid when I only needed 3?!)In addition to this, there was been broken equipment and lack of paper towels for the past 3 months and doesnt look like that will be changing soon.

Consumers beware! The employees are very rude to the costumers, even the manager.they scam my family to join the membership with $100 cancellation.they do not care if you bring your own lawyer regarding this matter too.so beware with their false promises.

DONT SIGN UP!!!! YOU CANT GET THEM TO CANCEL YOUR MEMBERSHIP. i called to cancel, told cant do that over the phone, you have to come in. Went in on a Saturday, told cant do that on the weekend only M-F 10 am - 6 pm (conveniently when most folks are at work). Funny, you can sign me up and take my money on the weekend but I cant cancel on the weekend, THATS BS. nice customer service you POS.
