Proximal50 Downtown

I am an IT professional. I want to be transparent about that upfront so you understand the physical baseline from which this journey began. I sit for a living. I have sat, professionally and with considerable expertise, for approximately twenty-seven years. I am very good at it. My lumbar region and I had an arrangement. I contacted Proximal 50 for one specific and modest reason. I wanted to pick up my grandson without sounding like a piece of furniture being moved across a hardwood floor. That was the goal. That was the entire goal. I was not trying to compete in anything. I was not trying to impress anyone. I simply wanted to lift a small child without my body filing a formal protest with my brain. Lexi Bata assessed my situation with what I can only describe as the calm professionalism of a structural engineer who has been handed a building report and chosen not to gasp out loud. She reviewed my injuries. She reviewed my limitations. She did not say anything that suggested she was alarmed. (She may have been alarmed. I chose not to ask.) After fifteen sessions I am writing this review. My grandson does not know what happened. He only knows that grandpa picks him up now. He does not know what it cost. He does not need to. You should know, however. I am telling everyone.

All the equipment I need in a not overcrowded gym. Things are clean and in working order.

Staff are so nice,the equipment is awesome and the gym is clean. In my opinion, the nicest gym with a wide variety of options for any fitness level.

I did a drop in class with Jordan and it was great. I've attended a couple a year when in town for the last several years and will keep coming back. Classes are easy to book and pay using the MindBody app. Jordan was friendly and inviting as I arrived and signed in. The gym was all set up ahead of time. The class intro and welcome were clear and easy to follow. Jordan both managed time and moved around the room coaching in a well seasoned manner.

Clean gym with a great staff. Many different opportunities for classes so there is something for everyone.

I love the staff and all the equipment is great. Always can get to a machine. I highly recommend the place

Keetan is the best personal trainer out there. I highly recommend him, to anyone looking to achieve health and fitness goals.

Great place overall just wish the weekends they were open later than 2pm a lot of people work Saturdays so sadly I go to planet fitness on weekends.

Proximal is quite possibly the best executed gym with the best business plan and overall person/health approach I’ve ever encountered. There are some decent gyms in town that bring their A game, but the owner of proximal has ignored all the expectations and created a class of her own. The combination of physical therapy with a top notch traditional gym setup that caters to the yuppy and meathead alike is nothing short of genius. Normally (hopefully) a gym will focus on building a person from the ground up, which works for the average person with no physical issues to overcome - but for someone like myself that spent a long stint in a wheelchair - proximal digs way deeper than ground level so that even someone facing limitations can excel. Definitely a business built on competency and compassion that I’m happy to get to support. It feels more like investing into the success of a good friend than paying gym dues.

I'll give it 5 stars when hooks are installed in bathroom stalls, and a ladies locker room entrance privacy wall or screen is erected so you can't look into the hair dryer area from outside the room. LOVE going here. Great downtown location.
