Location and equipment
I LOVE the Louisville Downtown YMCA at 2nd and Chestnut. I’ll continue to go there as long as I’m able, and it’s open. It has everything- 7 floors of all kinds of weights and machines. Plenty of space for everyone.
I go to Floyd Co. YMCA when weather is bad or I’m in a rush. I live in Georgetown, IN, and it only takes 10 minutes to get to Y in New Albany, but probably 18 minutes to get to Louisville downtown Y, but it is so worth it
It would be great if whoever put together Floyd Co. Y would meet with members about its functionality, or lack thereof. There are maybe 12 treadmills total in the Y. Come January 1st, the Y will be packed, and cardio machines will be hard to come by. There is no set room for floor exercises- abs and such, just some corners members use. The weight setup is just off. Why not put all cardio on 2nd floor and all weights on 3rd? It’s too bad it’s so popular- and crowded. After covid, I still do not like members so close to me, working out. They could use a lot more space! I’m very glad it’s there. Maybe if they could reorganize the space they have, and get rid of things they don’t use.
Mostly, I use the pool for water aquatics. Occasionally, I use the bicycles and the elliptical upstairs.
As much as anything I love being with like-minded people
I love the classes and instructors. They are knowledgeable and encouraging!
I really enjoy the warm water classes when I am able to go. Margaret Brooks is an excellent teacher and encourager. She makes exercise in the pool fun and all wanting more. She is a very special blessing to the YMCA staff.
Friendly staff and guests. It is always clean. The other members are very friendly as well. I joined after a physical injury and going to Silver Sneakers has been a real blessing. When I started coming, I had fo use the handrail or ramp to walk the steps from the parking lot.Now I am able to walk up the steps outside without holding the handrail.
Julie is a great instructor for our class. She is always positive, patient and pleasant.

There is always plenty of staff around incase someone needs help, either with instruction or a fall or medical emergency.

I like going to the YMCA, especially the Floyd County Y, because it has a lot of activities for people over 60. Besides working on the machines, they have a space, not a big one, but one where you can also doing walking or fast walking inside. I love it! Don't need to join a gym, when you have the Y.
