The SceneMost Ballys stick to the basics for their design. Televisions broadcast silently above multiple rows of cardio machines; mirrored walls act as the primary decorative components. But thanks to high-energy television ads and low-impact membership premiums, this national fitness chain has steadily attracted a clientele bent on saving money while losing weight or gaining muscle.
The Workout
Using fairly standard strength-training equipment and/or racks well-stocked with free weights, the best of the trainers here, who are classified at four different levels, can be as skillful as those found at costlier gyms. For group classes, signature exercise options include Spinning and Powerflex, as well as a number of patented routines inspired by Tae Kwon Do.
Key Points
- State-of-the-Art Equipment
- Customized Fitness Programs
- Easy-to-Join Membership

Overall the club met my workout needs. They had equipment. It is a very busy club during after work hours.
I belong to Bally because I travel often. Their membership costs are reasonable, and they have locations in most major cities where I travel. If you travel quite a bit, it is nice to know that the clubs carry the same type of exercise equipment.
Shower areas can be a little crowded.
