Loving this gym and the entire experience! I posted a request in a Facebook group and Emily responded with all the right answers. I’m in my 50s, metabolism has slowed down and I have a very intense work schedule. I needed to find a workout routine that was simple, no nonsense, and was going to focus on strength training. I love the trainers, Chris and Emily are awesome! The community is super friendly, not pretentious at all, and everybody is there to get the workout in. That’s what I wanted and that’s what I got!

The BEST gym I’ve ever gone to. Instructors are top notch, attention is paid to form and modifications can be made so you avoid injury. Always get an incredible workout!!
Great workouts and coaches. Get educated and in shape at the same time!!!!
My middle school daughter goes to Duece Athletics and she loves the energy from the coaches! The workouts are varied and are challenging in all of the right ways.
I’ve been going to Deuce Athletics (DA) since 2019 or so and like the founder told me before I started, “It’ll change your life…” Well I’ll be damned. It did! Previous to attending DA, I was going to Anytime Fitness and later CrossFit. Both places just didn’t land for me. DA has the perfect match of intensive coaching and perfectly tailored strength and conditioning classes that are challenging but won’t leave you hurt or unable to walk or more the next day. If you’re the average or below average athlete, they’ll start you with a crawl, walk then run regimen that’s fun and will plus you up in a long term fashion devoid of injury. Their coaches are energetic, thoughtful and very skilled. Each class for me feels like a one on one, but surrounded with fantastic personalities by way of the students who attend class. Classes aside, DA likes to craft a community centered around athletics. We frequently have social outings and gatherings and I’ve made many of a quality friend that will last for life. If you’re looking forward to a gym that’s more than a gym and more of an energetic experience filled with passion, DA is your spot!
Haven’t pushed myself to workout this hard in years. Coaches are awesome and will customize workouts to fit your needs. It’s a good community to help push you to get in shape and change your lifestyle
The best gym experience I’ve ever had. The coaches truly care about you. That and they have the education, awareness, and training to help you not only meet but surpass your fitness goals. I never thought I’d be as strong as I am now. Plus the community is unbeatable. I love the people I’ve met here.
Absolutely my favorite gym I've ever been a part of. I got very fit very quickly. The coaches are awesome. They make sure to work with you closely to see what works best for you. For example if you have an injury they will help you strengthen other muscles without stressing the injured one. On top of that the people you work out with in class on a weekly basis are very close knit. Everyone is super supportive and it's perfect for anyone.
Title: Inclusive Excellence at Deuce Athletics! Review: Deuce Athletics has been my fitness cornerstone for the past two years, and the journey has been nothing short of transformative. With a rich background in martial arts, I discovered a new passion for strength and conditioning within these walls. The skilled coaching team at Deuce doesn’t just push you; they teach and inspire you to elevate your training wisdom. What makes this gym stand out is its welcoming atmosphere for all fitness levels. Whether you're a beginner or a seasoned athlete, the community and coaches support and guide you toward your personal best. Their community-building efforts, including informative monthly events, create a sense of belonging and mutual growth. Today, I am at my peak: strongest, fittest, and in the best shape of my life, inside and out. Deuce Athletics is more than a gym—it's a life-changing hub that embraces every individual, regardless of where they are in their fitness journey. If you want to transform your health and strength amidst a supportive community, Deuce Athletics is your destination. Here, everyone is welcome, and every workout is a step toward greatness.
This was the first gym I tried after mine closed and I was hooked. From the extremely knowledgeable coaches to the most welcoming members that make you feel comfortable no matter your skill level, it's the best place to come in for a workout. I look forward to coming in every week and have grown so much since I started. The coaches will modify for any skill level and any injury you may be working through. They also have a nutrition coach to help you achieve your optimal fitness level. Community events are also hosted by the gym so you can get to know other members and friends you’ve made in the gym. You won't regret giving this place a try!
