  Pros:
  - Not many people. I've never had to wait for a power rack or bench
  - Rounded plates instead of edged
  - Set of bumper plates
  - Lifting platforms
  - Straight pullup bar with assistance bungee instead of the overpriced assisted pullup machines
  - The staff cleans the place very often and it usually has a pleasant fresh scent
  
  Cons:
  - One of the bars in the half rack is bent and needs to be replaced.
  - No chalk allowed
  - Med ball slams are not allowed
  - Very few people doing the main lifts. If you need an atmosphere of other lifters to motivate you this isn't the place. If you like never having to wait and can motivate yourself it's a plus.
  - They have one inexpensive power rack and an inexpensive half rack. The half rack isn't bolted down and therefore is only rated for 315#. Thats pretty light and dangerous.
  - Most of the equipment is fairly old and not maintained well enough or high enough quality to last. A lot of it has rusted.
  - While I have only seen two of the trainers at work, they don't appear to be high caliber. They teach things like "bosu ball kettlebell squats to overhead press". Do not appear to have a proper progression planned, which will make more than novice gains very hard to come by. *Have not seen, nor have the experience to speak to the boxing training*
  - Mirrors everywhere. Like carnival super villain amount of mirrors...
  
  Nuetral:
  - Price is on par with other gyms in the area. More than the very cheap ones such as Catalyst.
  - Staff is about 50/50. Some are great, some less so.
  - Not for me, but a large dumbbell selection going up to 100#.
  - Even with a dedicated pull up bar, people still seem to prefer doing them in the racks for "reasons"
