Sad but it is closing

by Mountainbiker

Well the poor reviews of Three Rivers Fitness are not unfounded. I've been going there for a few years, and have developed a number of friendships there, which is why I kept going. I swore I would look for another gym, but kept going because it's a good group of fellow members. Plus, the equipment was pretty nice and rarely crowded. BUT, we just learned that they're closing the gym on July 3, 2008. While I will miss a lot of the people I worked out around everyday, I'm not surprised it's closing. Seems a development company bought the building a while ago, and promised to allow the gym to stay open for a while. But, they've changed their minds and now the gym goes. I think I'm going to look at Gold's downtown, but a lot of guys from Three Rivers have moved to Club One in East Liberty, so I don't know just yet what I'll do. Three Rivers has so much unrealized potential.............

Bad Management and Less # of good equipment

by sunnyguy007

Be careful with your yearly subscriptions. They keep on charging most of the times. Also, the facility is too expensive for the price you pay. They don't have enough equipment, so exercise is not that much fun. Overall, it is not a good experience and the advice will be to find a better gym somewhere else.

AWESOME GYM

by honest234

The front desk service is excellent. All the girls are very sweet and willing to help with anything you need. There is always a treadmill available for use and a parking spot they have several places you can park for free which is rare in Oakland. Great changing facilites, such as free lockers and free towel service, and you cant beat it for the price. Variety of classes with amazing instructors. Great student and UPMC discounts. AND tanning it dosen't get much better.

• Pros: EVERYTHING
• Cons: Returing calls promptly
