thorough review please read – I have lived in Atlanta for a collective ten plus years and I am very familiar with different gyms here in town...so I will give a fair review. I first visited Fitness Factory in 1998. The gym equipment was old and limited and the locker room was dingy and odorous. I made an effort to ask the staff thorough questions about programs, etc., they seemed unenthusiastic and acted as if I was burdening them with my questions. They were also unwilling to give me a good price for a membership. I decided... read more

I've finally found the gym for me! – These guys are great. Very relaxed atmosphere. Great classes. Tons of weights (if you're into that). I've done the LA Fitness thing along with other gyms in-town and I've finally found a place that gives me everything I need with TONS of parking!!!!!

Great Place to go if you are a straight girl who wants to get in shape and not be leered at – I absolutely love this gym because of its complete lack of a hetero-male vibe. There are a lot of gorgeous gay men there and, unlike some other gyms, they do not look at you as though you are some kind of pathetic breeder invading their territory. Instead, it is a very civil, pleasant and non-threatening environment. No need to put on makeup or worry about putting on a cute outfit if you are a girl (though they appreciate it when yo... read more

Editorial Review – Midtown gym offers yoga classes multiple times a week for those interested in mixing up their tough cardio workout with something more tranquil.

your money is better spent elsewhere – Fitness Factory promotes its membership and trainer rates as affordable, but if you take the time to research other gyms and trainers, you will find their rates are only slightly less for seriously less quality. The trainer I signed up with showed up to our first appointment 10 minutes late and was distracted and ABSOLUTELY indifferent. I was put through a workout that wasn't even vaguely personalized to my needs or goals (which he never bothered to ask about anyhow) with an emphasis on... read more

Couldn't be happier – Great space, great equipment. I couldn't be happier. The staff is friendly; the owner and manager are frequently visible and approachable. Weights are ALWAYS where they are supposed to be; equipment is clean. GREAT location if you like to run in the park before or after your workout. The best atmosphere of any gyms I've tried in that area.

This place helped change me. – I have been a member there for a number of years and I love the real neighborhood gym feel. People of all types go there; they are serious, but in a positive way, not pushy, but encouraging. Best of all, it is a fun place to go. I love the classes and the trainers. I started as a very out of shape guy, and Fitness Factory helped to change my health completely. I get my friends and family to go there and they have not been disappointed. I really love access to Piedmont Park and running in the Sp... read more

A Real Gym! – A really cool space right next to Piedmont Park. After exercising my dog at the dog-park, we walk down a path to the gym and have a "South Pacific" smoothie. My dog loves socializing with the other dogs, while me and my friends work out. The music and atmosphere are fun, the staff is eager to help and answer questions. There is an excellent selection of equipment available for everyone from the pro-bodybuilder to the active housewife. But the best part is that the rates are affordable and there is no pressure f... read more
