I have been looking for a gym in Ankeny. Does anyone have a thumbs up or thumbs down on any of the following:
Accel Fitness Snap Fitness AnyTime Fitness 7-Flags (was Metro) CrossTrain Fitness I really just want to do some cardio to start and then get into some weights to firm up. Thanks, Teresa |

Yes I do, Accel really sucks! Very impersonal, busy, over-crowded and no one who works there is any help. Shy away from this gym, believe me. I've been going there for a year now and am looking for a good one too. Let me know what you find.

Teresa,
Did you manage to find a decent gym in this city? |

I love Accel. I also find it funny that Scott hates that place so much yet he's remained a member there for "a year now." The staff is always more than happy to help, at least they have been everytime I ask. The gym isn't that busy either. I was at Aspen for quite a while and they were very busy and EXTREMELY rude. I looked at Anytime, Snap and 7-flags and they all seemed to be lacking good equipment.
Give Accel a try! |

Just as soon as I find a gym that's a litle more upscale, I will terminate my membership at, "The Club."

I love Metro (now 7 Flags fitness). The extra classes that are available (for free) are wonderful and staff is very personable with members. I have been a member for about 4 years and love it!

what do u need an upscale gym for? do you show off at dinner parties bragging about how many tvs or hot tubs ur gym has? who cares? im not saying any crappy place will do but as long as it has the basics to get a good workout in then go get in workout get done and leave.

Upscale means free of riff-raff and kids. Dah!

I had a year membership at Metro and loved it. Staff was very nice and sauna and equipment were good. This was two years ago before it was 7 flags but i can't imagine it's that much different. The Y seems like it has lots of kids. I am going to try Ankeny Fitness next. Anytime looks like it could be ok. We'll see.

Ankenys anytime is wayyyyyyyy too busy, anytime between 6-9am busy, 230-8pm busy. I just ended my membership there and go to a much larger less busy gym (7flags). Anytime is supposably opening another in ankeny off 2nd and oralabor so maybe that could help. Anyways good luck in your searches.
