Plenty of cardio!

by Tina83

I don't know the last time some of these people went to Fitness Factory, but this one in Shadyside has a TON of cardio equiptment. I've been searching the area for a gym, and I've actually chosen this one because of the variety of machines that it has for aerobic activity.

The owner was very nice to me, and gave me a tour of the place. He also thanked me and talked to me right as I was leaving.

The gym is large, and although some machines are crammed pretty close together, there are lots to choose from, and I feel that no matter when I got there, I could always find something to work out on.

• Pros: lots of equipment, nice management, affordable, safe location
• Cons: parking (it's Shadyside), some machines crammed close, a little cold in there!

Did Not Visit The Gym But Talked To the Owner, Very Good Person

by jaejie

Never been there but I talked to the owner; he is an outstanding and straight forward person. We need more people in this world like that. I would join his gym and support what ever else he was doing just on that. I would disregard the bad reviews and go take a look for your self.

• Pros: Owner, Staff, and Equipment

Do not join this gym!

by jws181

I was very disappointed in this gym. It is dark with very little natural light, low ceilings and signs printed from a home computer hanging everywhere. There is limited equipment, due to the limited space. The hours are extremely inconvienent...closing early on the weekends! Lastly and most disappointing was the management, extremely unprofessional. I don't think you could pay me to spend my time working out at this gym. Luckily, there are many other gyms in the area.

• Pros: Location
• Cons: Too small, dark, hot and unprofessional
