I have to give a shout out to Northwest Personal Training. I have been a member (or I should say dissatisfied member) of other gyms in town. I have finally found a gym that cares about their members instead of their dues. I so appreciate the excellent customer service, inviting atmosphere and top-notch personal training staff (I have finally lost 25 lbs!) If you want results, give them a try.

I really love the personal trainers and the quality of the group fitness program. I love having the sauna and spa services on site. It's so convenient. Since NW Personal Training took over from Resort to Fitness, I have noticed much more variety in the group classes. NWPT also organizes trips and local outings. I am also impressed to see their support(sponsorship) for local athletic events like the Lacamas Lake Memorial Day run.

This facility is very professional and tailored to the clients individual needs and schedule.It worked wonders with me and I can recommend it highly.It is for men as well as women.

Whether you want to lose weight, build strength, take a few classes to relieve stress or all of the above, this gym is the place to do it. The gym itself is fantastic. Clean, well decorated and full of the best equiptment. The staff is all excellent, including the very knowledgable trainers (I swear by everything Kathy B. teaches me), who are always willing to answer a few questions, even if you can't afford to spring for a session. The administrative staff is also excellent. They are not only friendly, but also extremely encouraging (and what's really impressive is that every single one of the staff seems to know every single member by name!). It may be a little more expensive than 24-Fitness, but it's well worth the extra money. Seriously. Not only is it a place where you are encouraged to work out as often as possible and to participate in their variety of programs, but it is also a place where you'll want to go. The environment is inviting and the rest of the clientelle are very encouraging of one another, making working out a positive experience. They also offer a variety of out-of-gym programs, including river rafting and various fitness challenges, as well as programs for parents and their kids. Pretty cool.

Since the McMillian's took over what was formerly Resort to Fitness, it had leaped upward in both professionalism and customer satisfaction. The McMillian, Sherri and Alex, are two of the most accomplished and knowledegeable fitness experts in this hemisphere (literally, they are asked to do trainings all over the U.S., Canada, and south of the border. Because this is a passion for them, and not just a business, they are happy to make sure providing members with knowledge, programs, and expertise needed to develop a well-rounded life-time fitness plan is the number one priority of their business. In addition to offering some of the best in terms of knowlege and committment, trainers, they offer free informational seminars on fitness training, nuitrition, menu planning, and general wellness.
They also start with the philosophy that if they treat their employees well, the employees will pass on that satisfaction in their service. Actually, I think the McMillians do an outstanding job of hiring good people and then nurturing and supporting their staff because treating people well is part of their personal values- not just because it is good for business, but the results is friendly, helpful, knowledgeable staff that are a pleasure to work with and know how to make you feel welcome. I highly recommend this club
