Best Gym in CT

WOW!
I couldn't believe my eyes! I recently went and looked at Cardio Express in Wethersfield and was amazed! It was a breath of fresh air from the alternative in the area. You walk into the front door and are greeted by what is possibly the nicest staff. Its nice knowing that every time you walk into the gym you will always be greeted with a smile and friendly face. Behind the smiles they really mean well I have never felt this comfortable in a gym and am excited to continue working out there. Trust in the Staff at Cardio Express and you will have the same experience I do every time I walk in to the facility.
A Nice Place to Work Out

I go to Carido Express 3 times a week. I go to Donna. I take her classes. She is very nice and helps me when I take her class. The personal trainners are very expensive. I went to them once. I would not go to them anymore. The Ladies room could be cleaner. Sometimes when people are done with the machine. They do not clean them. I think they should.
- Pros: A Trainer
- Cons: It could be cleaner
Horrible

This gym come originally from Atlanta, and they are predatory on their contracts because they know most people will sign up for a gym and not go, so they do lock ins for "12" months. I mean just a disgusting gym, if you want a cheap gym with gross equipment and promises of a new location come to one of these.
- Pros: Contract Gym, lock you in
- Cons: All Cons
Great basic gym, great basic value - Southington location

I don't know what some people are expecting for either $10 or $20 a month, but if you're looking for tons of equipment where there's alway something available for use, then CardioExpress is a fantastic place. The trainers in Southington are super-nice, and although I don't "subscribe" to their program, they are always happy to give me a pointer about the use of a piece of equipment or my form in executing a particular exercise. I love to watch what they do with their "clients" and if I ask another (not busy) trainer about the concept or whatever, they are happy to tell me about it. The staff is friendly and although they do socialize amongst themselves when it's slow, they immediately hop to attention if a member approaches, and place the member's needs first. The equipment and locker rooms are always clean and in good working order. Parking stinks, but that's not their fault, the parking lot was designed before they came along! The staff that run the classes are so friendly, they tailor the class to the participants every time. For my ten bucks a month, I couldn't ask for a better place. If you want leh-de-dah glitzy classes and continuously changing programmes, join the expensive gyms...you'll find it there. If you want a gym where ordinary people can go and get a thorough workout of every muscle in their body on a variety of equipment and never have to wait for a piece of cardio equipment (plus t.v.'s to boot!) without breaking the bank in this tough economy, then Cardio Express is for you!
- Pros: plenty of equipment, courteous attentive staff
- Cons: limited parking
Ain't worth the 200 dollars a year they went hell no.

The staff is ok I guess, and the place is in decent condition, however going after 5pm is suicide, the place is just too packed, you gotta wait for machines. The trainers are complete idiots, they use the same workouts for everyone, and if u happen to cancel their sessions or decide not to sign up after the intro they look at u all mean and talk to one another about you when you pass by. I went there for 2 years and I've seen pretty much no new machines, the staff is pretty lazy and just hangs around the desk. The plus to this gym is that they are open almost all the time and u get free tanning, other then that the price isnt worth it either.
- Pros: free tanning
- Cons: idiot trainers, lazy staff, rip off
