What do you like about our programs and activities?

I am aware of the programs and activities but don’t participate. I regularly use cardio equipment such as stationary bikes and treadmills. Also a series of upper body resistance machines. I spent about 1-1.5 hours there 3/4 days a week.

What do you like about our programs and activities?

I really enjoy the group activities. I just don't like when there's too many people in a class. The only down side about that is i would never get in a class.
The instructor's need to help more on form when lifting weights. A lot of times I am showing people how to lift, so they don't hurt themselves.

I love all the people at the Y Instructors and friends

What do you like about our programs and activities?

Group classes are all excellent!!! Instructors are 10+, space is at minimum above average.
I hesitate to sing the Y’s praises to newbies b/c of overcrowded space, especially in the parking lot.
