Rochester Athletic Club

The club has all the necessary equipment for a good workout. No frills. Special attention will cost extra

Here are a few more things to keep in mind.  Their equipment is old, the lockers are rusty, the locker rooms can smell pretty bad in the summer, and RAC management doesn't care one bit about the individual, just the individuals money.

it went from bad to worse.

Overall I have had a good experience there.   I wish there were more aquatic classes, eg aqua rumba etc.  They have really pared down that schedule over the years.   The equipment in the gym area is kept in good working order.  There is always someone on the floor to answer questions and they are not intrusive when you are just doing your own thing.

I have used this fitness center, as well as most of the women centers.  I
find that they have up to date equipment, tons of aerobic classes, and
fairly decent hours.  I do know they can be pesky at times trying to get
new members or renewing current members but overall I don't have any
issues.  I tend to use the one on Winton Rd most of all, but depending
on your needs you can vary your locations especially if you are a
female.  I think the only time I am not too happy is in beginning of the
new year when it seems everyone decides that losing weight is their
resolution and the clubs seem to fill up, not to mention that is the
time they run specials to entice new members.  I think there is a good
mix of equipment, both circuit and free weights, tons of cardio machines
which they keep up really well, and tons of up to date aerobic
classes.  I have this membership and Planet Fitness, but I prefer this
gym as they have the classes as well as you don't have to fight for a
treadmill, the only thing I wish for is that they were 24hrs

We downloaded a day pass and were contacted by someone at the gym to set up an appointment. We went in and were given a tour of the gym. It is a decent size, not too big or small. We weren't allowed to use our pass, however, until we talked about signing up for a membership. They only offer 2 year memberships. We decided to join. So far, it has been a positive experience. There's rarely a wait for the cardio machines, but sometimes the weight machines get busy. They like to sell their personal training packages and they're always asking if you have anyone else you'd like to recommend to join. The hard sells can get annoying at times. Overall, it's a good gym.

I have been using them for about five years. They have excellent service for the price. They have good classes and its a good facility.
