This is the Harris EXPRESS location. It has limited space, but thats kind of the point by the "Express" part. The machines are mostly in good shape, and frankly no different than sparkling new equipment. Generally, they break because people use them incorrectly. If you need a new machine to get the feeling of a better workout, then look for a gym that charges more and constantly buys new equipment. Ive used both machines and free weights here, and they are more than ample to get the job done with the right approach. Free weights are plentiful enough to suit your needs, but youll have some waiting time when it is busy for benches, weights, and machines. This time of year is busy for the gym, and being that I signed prior I definitely notice the difference. Youll wait for cardio if you show up at about 5-6PM especially on Mondays and Tuesdays. Expect Mondays to be packed after work, and less so before work. Lunch time is also somewhat busy, but evening is the busiest. It gets progressively better throughout the week. Fridays are generally very slow after 6PM. Its nice. Honestly, its a gym with locker rooms and showers. You can leave as you arrived, but you also can go to any facility in the area that you want interchangeably. If youre not satisfied with results, its not the gym.... I like going to this branch. Its not going to have everything that a larger family branch has, but it has everything you need to get a good workout. You can build as much muscle as you want, or slim down as much as you want without going anywhere else. What more do you want?

We were visiting in the area and went as guests and we only scratched the surface of what they have to offer. The weight facility is top notch! Plenty of high quality machines and other apparatuses to have a complete workout. A great gym without any of the typical gym narcissists. YAY!! Front desk personnel was warm and friendly. When we are back in the area we will definitely go back!

Great atmosphere with great employees. My Fiancee and I have met some great folks who all share the same passion. We workout on our lunch break due to convenience of working near by. We seem some of the same great people every day. Only downside is that because it is an express it can get a little tight in the evenings. Ive found early mornings or lunch time are the best times to go.

Harris Express Y is small, but easy to get in and out of. I dont like spending hours and hours at the gym each day nor waiting on equipment. My wife uses a personal trainer here who is super flexible, an expert, and very affordable.

Good facilities and kid friendly for a YMCA. Wish they provided towels like other YMCA in area. Also equipment not up to date like other facilities

According to the attendant at the desk, "express" means no basketball court, no pool.
