Where do I start...... Ive been to the newington branch and the bristol branch since 2008. The price is just too darn expensive for what you get. Sure you get a pool, raquetball and a variety of classes, but if youre looking for a quality weight room with taken care of equipment, go elsewhere. The machines appear to have not been cleaned or serviced in ages. There are pins missing/broken on nearly half the machines and the entire weight room is cluttered. From the weight room you can always hear some sort of techno and or LOUD class going on in the basketball area which is distracting to say the least. This is just an FYI to bring your headphones. The desk staff is nice however the trainers seem arogant and down right pissy...that is unless youre paying them gobs of money for a session. Now, I must say that the newington branch is miles ahead of bristol in terms of cleanliness, equipment upkeep, and staff adittude. I can only imagine how nice the Avon branch is. I, however, cannot justify the hefty pricetag clocking in around $55 a month. I will be joining another Gym in the near future.

Uhhhhhh, waaaayyyyy too overpriced! Dated & broken equipment to name a few of the vast issues. Most trainers look like professional fast food junkies. One particular trainer is the most rude and disrespectful people on the planet. Shes this dumpy, frumpy blonde that wears glasses. Dont waste your time with her, looks more like a Bon Bon rep counter than an actual weight trainer or whatever the hell she is. A few good trainers but if nots the crappy equipment, its the atmosphere. Place in general is more like a bridge club than a "gym". Like a 100/mo. for a family for no apparent reason. Completely despise the place and will never set foot in it again frankly. I literally watched people who work there disregard the safety of young children training with the most dangerous form. As a personal trainer myself, I have helped them and taught them how to properly train. I even know women who left due to the owner being a complete sleaze. Dont waste a moment or penny on this dump. Join LA Fitness or anywhere but this gym.

I have been a member of Healthtrax for several years (in fact Ive going there since the 1980s when it was Bristol Health and Racquet). I love this family "fitness center." The focus here is really on health and fitness with a comfortable, "no judgement" feel. It offers lots of classes, has a pool and lots of gym equipment. Some of the equipment needs repairs (i.e. several bikes in the spin room). The staff is very friendly and helpful. It is a bit higher priced compared to its local competitors ($40 for single membership) but with that price you can use any Healthtrax fitness center in the area (Avon, Newington, North Haven). Ive been to all four maor gyms in Bristol, and I feel with Healthtrax you get the most (and best feel) for your money!

I have to disagree with the review by @punisher5616. The trainers are amazing. They are ALL well trained, educated, and genuinely care about their clients well being. I personally have worked with the so called "dumpy, frumpy trainer in glasses" (who is far from such) and she has literally been my life saver. Shes been able to work around my physical and emotional issues, and push me to always do better. She knows what shes doing with my body, and Ive lost 90lbs working with her! My strength has improved 10 fold from not being able to get off my own couch! Yes, the facilities look a little dated, but it has everything you need. I wouldnt dream of being at any other gym :-)

I have been a member at Health Trax since 2008. I have only used the pool and locker rooms as I have no CLUE what to do with weights and machines. The pool is clean, though rather on the warm side. At times I have to wait for a lane to swim laps, but generally people will make room. The Friday night Aqua Fit class with Darious is AMAZING! The best work-out of my life. I only wish that he taught all of the evening aqua classes! The other instructors are just fine, but his workout makes me feel as if i lost 20lbs! I try very hard not to miss a Friday night class..... I will update this review if I ever venture into the rest of the gym!

Never judge a book by its cover. You may think you are getting a high priced, beautiful facility, but what you are really getting is a facility that does not know how to follow through, manage their clients bills, and service that falls under the poor level. Recommending this facility falls outsided my moral code, stay away and take your time and money elsewhere.
