My favorite thing about First Step Fitness is that you don't have to think about reps or sets or muscle groups.   Mike and Amanda do all of the thinking for you.  You just have to do what they say, and you end up with a full body workout every time you go.

This is the best gym I have ever joined! Spotless, brand-new Technogym equipment. The music is just right: upbeat but not too loud with commercials blaring in your ears. I don't have to bring my iPod. The lighting isn't blinding you or heating up the place like a sauna. No one is trying to vacuum or mop the floor under you while you are running on the treadmill. There are purell dispensers. Good layout of equipment. You don't have to wait or sign up for a cardio machine. This is a great neighborhood gym- easy and convenient, like it should be

Mike the owner has put together a wonderful combination of training excellence, support, and camaraderie. The website's blog is fantastic and really covers a wide range of fitness goals. The First Step Fitness model is really personal training -- you don't just go to use the equipment. It is essentially set up as a class. They start with a warmup, then go over a specific skill. Then at the end a 20 min interval style workout that just smokes you. It's awesome. It can be scaled down so literally anyone can do it, so no matter how good (or bad) a shape you are in it will push you.
