The work out were smart and result driving davidemaddern2025-04-11Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Been a member for over 5 years. Started with MAT sessions then took classes that helped me complete a Spartan race. Now using their personal training services. I like how Ken doesn’t just push me to work harder but focuses on form and function. Highly recommended. Noe Montez2025-04-02Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Joined the gym in September. From jump, I’ve felted supported by the team who have made sure that I have proper form in addition to pushing me to lift heavier weight. I feel and see the differences in what my body can do. Nelson and Amber are great trainers and class leaders. Anna Tanguay2025-03-25Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The workouts are always great and effective, and the trainers are awesome! They have helped me feel more confident and give great advice on how to boost my strength, endurance, and skill. Before, I was too scared to go to a gym, but now I look forward to it! Jin Hee Kim2024-12-02Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Elite Edge is a premier independent gym with professional trainers and a wide variety of equipment. Classes are varied and structured to focus on different strengths each day. (Mondays - lower body, Tuesdays - HIIT, Wednesdays - upper body, etc.) I’ve been a member for a few years and the workouts are never the same. The coaches provide helpful demos at the start of each workout and will provide feedback to ensure everyone is exercising safely and effectively. Everyone has always been very supportive and encouraging regardless of where you may be in your fitness journey. People drive from all over metro atlanta to workout here for a reason; best gym in Atlanta! Joe Loniewski2024-11-22Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I have been going to Elite Edge for over 1 year and the results are incredible. Starting going with the intent to add a short term strength training to my cycling endurance training.. The upper and lower training days are now a consistent part of my routine. The instructors are always providing me with modification options. The strength training classes are different each time. The workouts are much better than going to your local gym and trying to decide what exercises you will do based on the machine that is open - or - what you know from high school. The Elite Edge team has helped me recover from a major cycling accident and more recently a total knee replacement. Excellent instructors. Great full body workouts. Best gym experience for improving my overall fitness level. Invest in yourself. J K2024-11-20Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Best gym in Atlanta. Have been going for abt five years now and still challenging for every workout. Trainers are great! Flynn Bridges2024-11-20Trustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Great workout!!
