Armbrust Pro Gym

Best equipment selection in the region and the staff is wonderful. They do a fantastic job of keeping the facility more clean than commercial gyms. All the members I have talked to are super cool and helpful- people are willing to spot you or help with your form if you ask. One of the best things about this gym is everyone practices good etiquette and racks their weights, wipes equipment down, and leaves things how they found them. I could see how the environment would be intimidating for newer lifters, but everyone I have met here is incredibly friendly. If you check your ego at the door and enter with the mentality that you are a guest in the space, you will be challenged and progress on all your lifts by coming here.

Five stars isn’t nearly a high enough rating for this place. I’ve been going here for almost 4 years, and I still feel thrilled to walk through the doors every day. The owners, management and staff (Andrea, Dylan, Zach, Daniel, and Maria, to name a few) do an amazing job of maintaining cleanliness and equipment functionality, as well as a pro gym environment. I’m so proud to call this gym my home gym.

I’ve been a member of Armbrust Pro Gym for several years now. The equipment is top notch, the community is amazing, and most of the staff and people you meet are genuinely supportive, respectful, and encouraging. Unfortunately, the biggest downside to the gym experience is the front desk — specifically Chelsea. In my personal experience, Chelsea consistently brings a negative tone into the space. She has made her personal frustrations and mood everyone else’s problem the moment they walk in the door. From my observations, she behaves snooty, dismissive, and acts as if she is above the members she’s supposed to assist. It’s shocking to see someone in a customer-facing role treat people as if they’re inconveniences rather than valued guests. When someone enters a gym, especially a place like Armbrust that is known for being motivational and community-driven, the first thing they should feel is a friendly welcome. That first interaction matters more than anything — it sets the entire tone for the visit. Sadly, my initial encounter was with Chelsea, and it was the opposite of welcoming. When I politely asked for her name so I could make sure to avoid interactions with her in the future, she snapped at me and sarcastically asked if I wanted her to write it down so I could complain to the owners. The level of disrespect in her tone was unnecessary and completely unprovoked. I wasn’t confrontational — I simply wanted to identify who I was speaking with because the interaction was so unpleasant. I normally wouldn’t make a big deal about one rude employee, but when someone is consistently disrespectful without any reason, it becomes a real issue for a business whose reputation is built on community, motivation, and being a positive place for people to better themselves. Armbrust has always been welcoming, peaceful, and supportive — the exact opposite of what I’ve repeatedly experienced from Chelsea at the front desk
