The energy is social but not toxic. People chat between sets. They compare heart rate data like trading cards. “My Apple Watch says I’m in zone 4. Beat that.”
There’s a communal water station with cucumber and mint. It’s free. You can refill your bottle and feel like a wellness influencer.
They blast disco during cardio. You’ll find yourself doing a little shimmy on the treadmill. It’s impossible to be grumpy here.
The Hidden Details
Look closely at the floor. There’s a subtle quote painted near the deadlift platform: “Progress, not perfection.” It’s written in Comic Sans ironically. It still works.
The bathroom mirrors have stickers that say “You look strong today.” They peel off easily. But you won’t want to.
Even the toilet paper has a motivational quote. Seriously. “Squat deep, wipe clean.” It’s ridiculous. It’s brilliant.
