My wife joined Anytime Fitness in Murrysville in January of 2009 to get in shape for our daughters wedding in August of that year. She has been excercising and dieting her entire life, but was never happy with the results. At Anytime Fitness, she worked with a trainer from the beginning; he told her that if she did what he asked her to do in terms of exercise and diet, that she would get the results she wanted, and she did. In less than 8 months, she lost 25 pounds and went from a size six to a size zero. Some people at the wedding didnt recognize her. She has continued to train with her trainer, and on her own, and has maintained her weight and shape. In June of 2010, after another bad episode with back spasms and ciatica, which had bothered me for nearly 20 years, I joined the gym and began working with a trainer. In little over a year, I lost 20 pounds, and went from size 36 to size 32 pants; my cholesterol went from 235 to 175, and best of all, I no longer have any back pain. We are in our late 50s, and thankfully, neither of us take any medication, and wed like to keep it that way. We feel that the right exercise and diet program will keep us healthy for a long time; wed rather spend our money at the gym, than at the pharmacy and doctors office. I agree with most of what the other reviewers said, except for SexySonata. I think they did a great job with the remodeling; I like the floor and the diamond plate, and I find the club to be clean and well maintained. I dont mind bringing my own towel, and I like the hydromassage bed. Tanning isnt healthy anyway, so Im glad they removed that bed; I never saw anyone use it anyway. The owner is a great guy; he didnt have to remodel the club after two and a half years, but he chose to do so because he cares about the members and takes pride in his club. The trainers are all great, and the member are some of the nicest people Ive met. All things considered, I think its a great club, and we are very happy to be members.

I have been a member of Anytime Fitness in Murrysville for almost a year now and it has been the greatest decision I have ever made for myself! I started going to the gym after realizing that I hit a MAJOR plateau in my own weight-loss journey and I needed help. Not only is the staff very kind and attentive, the staff is incredibly knowledgeable and patient. Within the first couple of months of my membership, I met with Erin for a few one-on-one sessions and immediately started to see results! Not only did we discuss different exercises and their benefits, we discussed the importance of a balanced diet and determined a nutrition plan that would work for me. After those sessions, I signed up for both Small Group and Team Training sessions and I feel like a brand new person! At Anytime Fitness, they get to know their clients and will help to tailor-make workout plans to ensure that individual goals are met. That sort of attention is priceless! I absolutely LOVE this gym. The gym is well maintained and very clean; the private bathrooms are a definite plus; and the selection of machinery/weights/merchandise/products is excellent. Above all else, the atmosphere is the biggest selling point. One of the biggest problems when trying to start on a weight-loss journey is finding the courage to join a gym without the fearsome gymtimidation. At Anytime Fitness, this is NOT a problem. Everyone, staff and members alike, is very encouraging. I will recommend this gym to anyone trying to get back on track. As Erin tells me every time I get a little impatient with my own weight-loss journey “it’s a marathon, not a sprint”. They will teach you the tools to better yourself physically. With these tools, patience, hard work, and a “can do” attitude, you will notice the changes. Just join the gym. You will not be disappointed!

I originally came as a guest to the fitness classes and I loved them, especially PiYo! Then, when the New Year hit, I really wanted to take it up a level fitness wise. So I decided to become and official member. I never liked working out, I always felt uncomfortable and awkward but they certainly dont make you feel that way here. There are instructors there to answer questions about the machines, exercises, or nutrition. They also offer a lot of different programs to get you down the track to where you want to be. Such as Yoga, Cize, Zumba, and PiYo. I personally LOVE taking their PiYo classes! Kimmi is such a fun instructor! She makes you feel comfortable, yet knows how to push you to where you want to be. The first time you come in, she makes you feel like youre apart of the family! Ive taken many yoga classes and always enjoyed it so I thought Id check out a PiYo class. I love yoga because it focused more on flexibility and balance. I never liked cardio and always dreaded having to run for long periods of time. (And by long, for me, was about a minute) But, I knew I had to find someway to squeeze in some sort of cardio to my fit life in order to get where I wanted to be and PiYo was where I found it! It can really make you sweat but in a fun, rhythmic way! I highly reccomend it!

Ive been going to Anytime Fitness for over 5 years. I have worked with trainer Brian Wayman during the entire 5 year span. He helped me to lose nearly 40 pounds in that first year, and now hes helping me to do it again after I was out and unable to workout for an extended time because of surgeries. They do not only train hard body types...many of the people are moms and dads that are trying to stay healthy and lose some weight. That being said, they also train people getting ready for body building shows and competitions. They are knowledgeable enough to do both. What Ive found with Brian is that he is able to push me in the right direction without turning me off to the entire working out process, because I am not a body builder type. The equipment and facilities at Anytime Fitness Murrysville are also great. I never have to wait for a machine, the facilities are always clean, and the people in the office are very nice. The new facility is much bigger than the old one. The business was recently sold to new owners and I like the new owners better than the last owner. Ive been a member since almost the start and I am sure I will be a member for years to come.

This gym is adequate in that it does contain the equipment for almost any type of gym goer - free weights, cables, kettle bells, medicine balls, treadmills, a few lunge machines, bikes, and a ladder machine (as well as a few other random cardio machines). Positives: + Aforementioned equipment + Generally clean bathrooms with nice tile and a few with showers + Main manager is very nice + Not a whole lot of damaged machines Negatives: - Male trainers there are arrogant douchebags if you are not using their training service (numerous experiences with side comments and glares) - Relatively high cost of membership for the service you get, as well as horror stories when it comes to ending your contract - Broken equipment is often not fixed in a timely fashion - People curl in the squat rack / not a whole lot of room during busy hours - Can get VERY humid / only 2 water fountains That being said, I will continue to use my membership until my contract is up - at that point I will definitely be looking at alternatives.
