I just transferred my membership over to Pittsfield this week (from North Adams) so I don't really have a lot of historical data at this juncture to support any opinions or evaluations of the Pittsfield club. Let's just say at this point, I'm happy about my decision to switch. The Pittsfield gym is bigger and nicer than NA. Has more equipment for availability and the locker room is nicer and more functional. Plus... I like the fact that there are a lot of "seniors" using this facilty. I'm 67, so I feel more comfortable with the current cliental as opposed to the young "gym-Joeys" that populate most gyms (I guess we were all young, cocky gym-rats at one time) One small gripe though... The gym could use a second pectoral-fly machine. I'm not sure why there is only one of these (considering it's popurality) and the fact that there are duplicates of every weight machne in all the PF's. I mentioned this to one of the desk staff, he said they're aware of the procblem and a solution is hopefully in the works. That's all I got (for now)
I love the environment. It’s energetic. The staff is very friendly and the equipment is clean and repaired quickly when not functioning properly. I always leave feeling like I got a good workout.
I tend to use the facility at 'off hours', generally between 2 -4 am. I appreciate the flexibility to do so. I also appreciate the welcoming staff member...Alexis...who seems to alweays be engaged in some form of cleaning activity. She is an incredibly dedicated employee!
