Had a membership here years ago when I worked relatively close to here and the amenities and group classes were good. Ive had gone to the one near H mart the most and only been to the other location a few times but I recalled they had a sauna and steamer.

Terrible customer service. Facilities are generally clean and satisfactory (if you dont mind being in a dark basement, which is basically the case for all of the nearby gyms too). But dealing with the sales / customer service reps is awful, and what was annoying before became intolerable given their dishonorable approach to customer care during Covid.

Very disappointed with their customer service. I joined the club February 1st and unfortunately I got transferred to a new job in another state on February 28. I ask for a refund and was told it was not possible. Then was told by GM that he needed to speak to owners and see if it was possible to charge one month of service and refund the remaining amount. That I though was reasonable compromise. Got the call that owners would not refund anything. Imagine charging full amount and not refunding anything. Where is the customer service or integrity for a fitness center. Advice don’t do yearly plan with this place. And I was a member of this gym. Why would I write this if I was not.

Compared different places around Central and Kendal and VIM is the newest one at reasonable price. With the membership you also get lots of great free courses!

Great gym for the value. Has plenty of squat racks, has a deadlift platform, and two benches. Most people in the lifting area seem to know what they are doing. Only issue I have is the personal trainers will occasionally just rope off the stretching area and everyone else has to deal with it.

I’ve been a member for 3-4 years now and really like this gym. It is clean and facilities and locker rooms have an upscale feel with mid range prices, and it is rarely crowded even during prime times. You should definitely check it out if you are looking for a “nicer” gym while notcompletely breaking the bank— a huge step up from BSC or Planet Fitness while not quite as cushy as HealthWorks, for example. Viewing and bookings classes is easy with an app, and you can even freeze your membership if you take a vacation or extended time away. I will say that the primary Central Sq location has no windows since it is below ground. Regardless, it seems to somehow not have a stuffy feel. One recommendation would be to open a half an hour earlier at least to be on par with other gyms. I would love to work out in the mornings, but with a 6am opening time I would be cutting it close. A few other recommendations: don’t charge a $20 fee to “try” your gym— a one time free guest pass would encourage others to try it out and give off more of a welcoming vibe. I have overall been very happy with this gym, classes, and facilities.

Definitely one of the best gyms Ive ever been to, before and after Covid precautions. The instructors are awesome and putting in a lot of effort to keep classes great. The gym has taken all the possible precautions and its an amazing community.

Great value so fitness is accessible to many in the community (every gym in this metro area is way overpriced so it’s refreshing they aren’t following this trend), convenient location and very clean, new equipment, super quiet before the 5 o’clock rush (which I love) and awesome Mat Pilates class taught by Sharon!

Nice gym! Great group fitness classes! VIM also has a large cardio area, large weight room, locker rooms with showers; the gym has towel service so it makes using the showers doable. Really great gym

Review №18

VIM Fitness offers a relatively great price for gym membership at Central Square. However, their personal training management is not attractive to someone who wants to start a package. Although they offer a FIT Assessment, scheduling with a personal trainer is antiquated as it requires texting and unfortunately you fall trap to someone has that spot already rather than a mobile weekly system where you can easily set this. I started a 6 pack that went smooth on the first week, but quickly ended up being a scheduling nuisance as then my trainer was on vacation for the subsequent week across 2 out of 3 days scheduled. From then on, it just went downhill on getting a morning time that wasnt taken and would allow me to get to work on time. Furthermore, although they claim its 1 hour, I consistently got 45 minutes of personal training instead. I ended up having to fully cancel my package (with sessions remaining) and committing elsewhere. I would recommend the gym but not the personal training sessions.

I joined about a month ago and I really like this gym. Classes are great - I especially enjoy Chisel & Cardio Sculpt with Azure. both facilities are fairly large, never had an issue getting a a cardio machine or weights. best deal in the area.

Sneaky and rude. This gym continued to charge me for my membership after I cancelled and would not issue a refund. They dont email or warn about charges they make to your account. Be careful people.

Great, quality gym that’s never really overcrowded. They run out of towels really fast, which seems like an easy problem to fix but for some reason they don’t just buy more towels.

Started going a few months ago, after looking for a gym and not successfully finding one. Reasonable pricing, great equipment, and solid spaces for stretching and conditioning.

Amazing gym— their two almost-adjacent locations are loaded with equipment and classrooms. Vim is basically Equinox without paying the Equinox prices!
