North Chatham has a good variety of equipment, lots of space, and best of all, a very friendly staff! They are kind and knowledgeable and know us by name. The group fitness room is well-stocked and offers lots of fun classes. Theres also a pool and hot tub included in your membership. They keep the center clean, organized, and offer specialty equipment (Power Plate, muscle massagers, etc) as well. Great gym!

I have been going to this gym over 10 years.I go to various other O2 gyms depending on where I am and what is convenient but this is my home. Love it there. Friendly staff. Not too crowded when I go which is usually morning, lunch, or after work. Good equipment. Wide variety of members so everyone should feel welcome.Unlike Elliott Rd the AC is sufficient and there is more than one toilet. (I mean if you got to go during a workout you really gotta go.)Locker room is a bit cramped.Hopefully towel service returns. I am guessing that is a Covid thing.

Glad to be back at the gym again! Fernando and the others are on top of everything to keep it clean and in great shape. Plenty of equipment and space. Great job!

Very clean and is always open on time because of the great friendly staff especially Larry and Fernie! Theres a lot of space and its not crowded, no waiting for equipment and everyone is being safe and wearing masks right now. I highly recommend checking it out if youre looking for a gym!

The facilities and staff and 02 are great! I’ve had pleasant interactions with Fern and Spencer from behind the front desk. Not only are both of them knowledgeable about the gym and its services, but they are also both knowledgeable about fitness and what it takes for one to meet their goals.I highly recommend (at a minimum) coming in and talking to anyone about trying out the gym.

O2 Fitnesss location in Chatham has nearly everything you could want in a gym. The facility itself boasts an impressive array of equipment and training zones as well as a friendly and positive training atmosphere and culture. The gym employs a phenomenal staff of individuals who go out of their way to ensure everyone has a positive experience. If youve got fitness related questions, hit up one of their training staff members. If you need help with anything in general, Fernando up front has you covered.

So happy this gym is open, it is my escape from my kids who are home all the time now! I have been a member for several years and love the friendly and professional atmosphere here. This gym is the biggest one that I have been to in the CH area and has a great 3 lane lap pool. It is clean and open with great natural light. I miss the group classes, but have loved that this gym has not been crowded at all.

Always get a great workout here. Has everything you need to get it done.

Been going to this location since gyms opened up and have been extremely pleased with the overall cleanliness and professionalism. Not to mention how much space there is to socially distance. Large variety of accessory machines with sufficient space in the free-weight section. Kudos to the amazing staff!!

Great gym! Always very clean and safe. The staff are helpful and friendly too. Fernando and Spencer are great.Im always able to get a good workout in.

My experience with O2 fitness has been very positive. I have been training with Danial Hogan at the Chatham Crossing location since the gyms reopened following the COVID-19 quarantine. Daniel is very motivating, encouraging, and positive as a trainer. He has helped me lose 27 pounds and counting! I have been able to work with Danial to improve my overall appearance as well as help me recover from a knee injury. I highly recommend O2 fitness and Danial Hogan as a personal trainer!

The trainers, especially Sydney K. No matter your age, current physical capabilities, or fitness and health goals, Sydney can handle them all and get you on the right track, with a smile. The equipment and capabilities at the facility are quite diverse, and Sydney is creative and intellectually flexible such that she can bend the place to your needs. She rates at the top with getting you to really work, to enjoy more than you thought, and most important of all, to make PROGRESS. Its the whole person she focuses on, and that is a treasure you do not find in many trainers. She makes you crave more, a wonderful attribute.

Mike and Spencer are an awesome addition to the management team! They make everyone feel welcome and truly care about their members fitness needs. I highly recommend this gym to anyone in the area!

Ive been working out with Curtis for over two years- he is friendly, enthusiastic, and very motivating. Prior to this I never stuck with a fitness routine. We had in person sessions before the pandemic and great virtual sessions for the past year. Id highly recommend Curtis and O2 Fitness.

Love working out here. Staff is friendly and they keep the place extremely clean. Throughout this COVID situation, O2 has done and is doing a lot to keep members safe. Thanks O2!

I’m starting with 4 so I have some room to go up after I’ve been going longer. Today was day 1 after my free trial. Sign up was a breeze and Fernando was super nice and welcoming. The gym was really clean and everyone was being “covid-safe”! Excited to get back to it 👍🏻

Just tried out the North Chatham O2 for the first time, it was a great experience! Staff was so friendly, professional and helpful! Overall gym and equipment were very clean. Highly recommend this location!

Love this location so much!They have the best personal trainer - Sydney. She is helping me reach all of my goals and really goes above and beyond with anything she can do to help me.Also, they are really nailing social distancing and finding a way to make fitness safe during COVID.

I have been coming to this location on and off for a very long time and have always loved how friendly and professional the staff here is. They make you feel welcome and are always there when you need help or have any type of questions. Highly recommend this gym to anyone at any level of fitness.

I am really happy I joined this Fitness Club. They have a great variety of cardio and isolation machines. Also free weight area with all the trimming. A few cable stations. The fitness center is large and you can spread out. Social distancing on cardio machine, they have certain ones marked off.The great thing is the staff, friendly, professional, and knowledgeable. They always greet you when you come in. I have had a chance to talk with Spencer and Michael and they are truly dedicated to your health and safety in this time. They will go out of the way to make you happy and comfortable at this place club.They also have sports drinks, protein supplement drinks available.Great place and it is the people that work here that make it shine. Thank you O2 ! Your staff at North Chatham is fantastic !I would recommend them if you are looking for a fitness club close by.

Been coming here for years it feels like a second home. Everyone is so welcoming and professional they feel like family. I highly recommend o2 to anyone that ever ask.

This is the best o2 fitness in the triangle. Staff and members are amazing. Overall equipment, and cleanliness this o2 location is a league of its own!. Special shout out to Fernando

Everyone has a right to breathe fresh oxygen while working out and in between working out. Forcing to wear masks in the gym is not right! If anyone is going here just rememeber there is at least 3 clubs in chapel hill that dont require face mask (Obvious logic) and I bet there is more, so simply switch instead of suffocating yourself

O2 in North Chatham is a great facility and extremely convenient to the neighborhoods in the area. Mike and his team are all wonderful and helpful professionals who are all extremely nice. It’s a very family friendly atmosphere and the team has done a remarkable job keeping the facility and equipment clean and safe during this COVID period. Kudos!

Their hot tub and steam room are now open. As well as the swimming pool. They have new exercise machines. Wonderful place

Ive been working with Curtis, a personal trainer at North Chatham O2, for several years now. He is absolutely fabulous! He is the reason Ive stayed in shape and not gained weight during COVID, working with me remotely and creatively using my home exercise equipment. Not only does he constantly find new challenges for me, but he keeps me laughing and happy throughout -- even while Im cursing his name during some evil ab workouts ;-) To top it all off, he is very knowledgeable and sensitive to physical limitations. I have a chronic spinal issue that requires great care to avoid a flare-up, but I need to work out! He keeps my muscles strong and works my mobility and balance while monitoring and adapting to my limits. Couldnt ask for a better trainer!!!

With the pandemic, I was able to keep on with my O2 Fitness Trainer Curtis Selby via Zoom at home. This has been wonderful for me, since Curtis is a great trainer, and makes my online workout very successful. I would encourage others to try this.

I have been working with one of their personal trainers, Curtis, for over 13 years. He is just outstanding in his expertise and ability to keep the workouts interesting and challenging. Friendly front desk and comfortable atmosphere.

Curtis is a great trainer and fun to work with! He listens to what you want and need and keeps you working toward your goals! I highly recommend him!

Management forces people to wear masks WHILE exercising.Thankfully Anytime Fitness has educated members and they dont force masks on their clients. :)Apparently this manager doesent understand that a person with a medical condition cannot breath through a mask regardless if its while working out or taking a rest in between sets.He also doesent seem to understand the fact that wearing a mask and breathing your own co2 is damaging to our brain cells and nerveous system, not mentioning how much horrible damage is done by depriving yourself of fresh oxygen while exercising!

My friend just got kicked out from this place by an agressive manager Michael Jackson, he was working out and took hes mask down in order to breathe, (he has a medical condition) and this guy aggrasively interupted him and told him to put a mask on while my friend was still trying to breathe, after being allready informed about my friends condition he decided to suspend hes membership and kick him out.This is unacceptible!

AC has been out for weeks and they dont even know when they are going to get it fixed. Will be happy to take this down when (if) that happens. It cant be healthy to work out in 84 degrees. Great trainers, front desk staff, and equipment, just need to get that AC fixed and the manager/corporate is not on top of it so maybe this will help.

Hello, my partner just got discriminated against and treated rudely by the manager here, for pulling down a mask to breathe between a set. This is redicilious and I am never going to this place again,Iwas a member for 3 years now and never seen nothing like this, what a horrible management.Also, the showers and sauna are very dirty with hair and bandages on the floor, with not so many clients at the moment and large staff this should have been a priority!

Forcing members to wear a mask over their face while working out at all, is shameful. This place needs to respect others choices to breathe oxygen.

I have been working once a week with trainer Sydney Kroutch. She has understood my goals perfectly and is a positive and encouraging trainer.

Staff makes you feel welcomed every time I go to workout.

Great! Very clean and easy to social distance from others. No issues not feeling safe. Feeks good to get in that much needed workoit after 7 months of rest.

Mike, Spencerand Fernando are awesome. Gym is clean, great service.

Management is great, facility is always clean, and Fernando and Spencer are always super friendly and welcoming! Join today!

Like this place. Has pool,sauna, & whirlpool. This gives one many options for injury rehabilitation and varying work out schemes over the year. Changing routines to get ready for a seasonal or short-term sport like skiing, golf, snorkeling, etc. made easy here. .Only problem is they find it hard to keep stretch bands,etc. on the racks. Extremely well equiped & maintained. Shower, towels all are clean. Staff very friendly and efficient

Awesome club with outstanding staff!

I’ve been going to this gym for 3 years.. it’s always clean, and staff is always friendly. All kinds of people workout there and they have equipment for everyone. I consider myself an intermediate lifter and currently doing some personal training sessions with Griffin who is highly knowledgeable and would highly recommend!! Mike, the general manager of that location, is on top of everything and always welcoming .. if there is ever an issue I know he’ll take care of it👍

I love O2 Fitness .. Spencer is amazing!!! Always willing to help even if he is busy.

Want to give a shout out to Curtis, an amazing trainer who has designed a workout program tailored to my needs - legs, core, upper body. He brings a wealth of experience combined with motivational skills that keep you on track ... a gentle task master that makes it fun. The staff is very friendly and welcoming and the gym is kept clean. Overall a wonderful workout environment.

People should be allowed to take off their masks if its hard for them too breathe, the management makes people suffocate themself while exercising, save your health and go somewhere else.

Management is great, staff is very welcoming, clean facility!

Signed in as a guest and was able to attend the Zumba fitness class. Highly recommend it. We arrived a few minutes late and the instructor, Carly, did not mind. She did an excellent job instructing the class and used a variety of music. The front desk was very friendly and answered all my questions.

Great class! My first time here and not not my last....

I have been a member for several months and everyone has been so helpful and welcoming! I take classes at several locations and the instructors are friendly and easy to follow. I love taking Zumba with Carly, her music is great and it’s tons of fun!

Just joined. Information on website is accurate PLUS really nice staff. Clean gym and well laid out. Not crowded and lots of free parking.

Great machines and staff. They provide jobs to veterans!

Very clean gym!

Ive been a member for just over 30 days, and wanted buyer to beware as I sit to write my written request for cancellation.I asked a very specific question at time of signing a membership agreement: Are there specific hours for lap swimming in the pool? Response: No, even during classes, they maintain a single lane for lap swimmers. So today, an older woman very rudely dragged a lane line into my arm as I was swimming laps. When I stood up, she asked me why I WAS IN HER WAY. I turned to the instructor to restate what I was told at time of signing the membership agreement, and was met with a dry: Nope. Not when there are this many people here to join a class.This whole incident could have been handled better. By the instructor. The other clients, or by the front desk when I offered this feedback and was greeted by a personal trainer trying to SELL ME MORE STUFF. Still waiting for a manager to call in response to my concerns.The cardio equipment is dirty. Day over day. Muddy sneakers on the foot placement that noone ever cleans up. The air conditioning is broken. AGAIN. Ill take pictures and post as I wrap up my 30 day notice.It was worth a try for a summer promo. They need more competition in this part of town.

This facility provides exactly what I need! It’s clean, there’s plenty of equipment, and there is a pool. The best part is that the staff is so friendly and helpful!

Friendly staff; clean facility; enthusiasm; up-to-date equipment; plenty of machines to accomodate a lot of people; availability of personal trainers

I really like this gym because it has a variety of workout equipment and classes you can attend. The pool and sauna and hot tub are very nice too, and the personal fitness trainers are super nice. Its just a great gym and I have improved so much at this gym.

Falconbridge location is closing permanently:( I gave the Chatham location a try but was so disappointed. Not very clean and most of the equipment was crowded together and old. Carrboro is by far the worst of the O2 locations but Chatham is not great either.

As far as commercial gyms go this is a great gym. I only wish the weekend hours were a little longer. Plenty of equipment, plenty of free weights and a dedicated little deadlift corner.

Friendly and professional staff. Very clean facility. Equipment is in good shape and the location is great.

Great location to workout! Kids club staff is awesome too!

Frustrating! This gym is run poorly and it shows. In general, gyms can be a dirty place, but these folks dont even bother with simple tasks like cleaning the mirrors or floors. I feel safer working at the hospital than working out at this gym. Gross!

Im not the type to do a review typically, but after the experience Ive had these past few weeks with the kind people at O2, I wanted to give them some praise.You can tell they really care, from the moment you walk in the door. I always get a pleasant hello and something motivating from the front desk person.In the times Ive worked with the management, I always have had a great experrience.Thank you for being so kind and welcoming. You make me want to keep showing up...fingers-crossed!!

Went earlier today for Saturdays daughters swimming lessons. Had a couple questions for the front desk guy. He seemed uninterested and bothered especially since I learned from him that the swimming lessons are run by a different company and they just rent the pool at 02. Next person in line after me, he was very courteous. My advice, Just apply uniform customer service to anyone who walks into your premises especially with the changing face of Chatham county.

It’s great that this facility has a pool and that Aquafit classes are offered. There is an additional monthly charge for participating in the Aquafit classes. It is disappointing that on at least 4 occasions in the past few months, no instructor has shown up for the classes. I have contacted O2 management about this and received an apology, but nothing was said about fixing what seems to be a problem with instructor scheduling. They mentioned the difficulty of finding a substitute at the last minute, but in some of these situations, instructors told the class about their upcoming need to be absent, so it seems unlikely O2 did not receive advance notice of the need for a substitute. In addition, the women’s locker room has been in a state of disrepair, with ceiling panels and light fixtures missing.

I love the equipment and the gym atmosphere! Everybody is very friendly including the staff.

Knowledgeable, friendly, attentive.

Management of facility has been good....for the most part. However:a) mens locker room: first, the fan used for ventilation was removed, then the TV, then one of only three small benches was removed, and filling soap and shampoo dispensers in ALL showers has often been neglected for daysb) pool: pool could use more frequent cleaning; ladder at deep end has had handwritten (and now faded) sign saying third step is broken...sign has been there since early Summer 2018...step simply needs to be replaced.c) steam room: has not operated properly for close to 2 months (doesnt heat properly). After new heating element was installed, STILL didnt work right, and management has said its repair is on their list of things to do.

I enjoy working out at O2 Chatham very much! The managers, staff & trainers are very helpful! We appreciate the business relationship with our team members and the extra offerings for wellness & nutrition classes to promote health with our team! They offer a wide variety of classes and equipment for most any interest or need,Thanks O2 for helping us to feel great and be healthier & running a clean and tight gym!Elmos of Carrboro NC

Dont do it! Dont become a member at this gym. The potential was there for a great gym but the management and staff are clearly lacking. Hot tub was green for weeks, then out of order for weeks as they worked on it. No hot water on numerous occasions. Not a clean gym.....I could go on and on. Charged us for maintenance fees weeks after my wife canceled her membership and then charged us again after I signed all of the paperwork and canceled my membership (a month and a half before the next charge). No responses via email. They just dont seem to care. The absolute worst gym I have ever belonged to.

I didn’t appreciate the high pressure sale to get me to sign up for a personal trainer. I felt like someone was trying to sell me a timeshare condo or something. It was that kind of experience. Why not just let new members know that personal trainers are available, their qualifications, and provide a price and option sheet. I felt sort of sucked into all this and it really turned me off.

If you wish to have a great team of fitness experts and friendly staff members, this is the place! Both my husband and I have been going to this facility for more than two years. We have found a clean facility, well maintained equipment, and many class opportunities. Come join us!

Whenever I joined the gentleman that helped me out, Kumar I think was the name, was super friendly and attentive. However as time passed he doesn’t even say hello to me when I see him. The bathroom is really not well maintained, and I have been fighting with management (have spoken to the GM and multiple different people at the front desk) to actually have the weights labeled in some of the machines. And apparently it is too hard to do so. I even offered to get a sharpie and write myself.Overall just a lot of dust near the free weight area and the men’s locker smells really bad. Not happy. Would leave if I could but I am stuck in a contract. Good luck if you get into one, they will hold on to their money and will not let you go. Unless you die or something...

Love the gym. Has everything I need!

I have been a member there for over 12 years but maybe not for much longer if they cant fix the AC. It has not been working properly for weeks and all they have to say is were working on it. I gave up on trying to change back into street cloths because the locker room is ridiculously hot.

The class cycle room bikes are filthy and rusty and the room is always hot. The group classroom is not the cleanest either. Hair balls are constantly rolling around on the floor, mats and equipment are rarely cleaned and the room in usually hot. Generally this club is pretty unsanitary. But the staff is friendly and helpful.

The staff is phenomenal. The equipment is top-notch. The pool could be bigger however

Friendly staff and great assortment of equipment!

ValueIf you are looking for gym membership where you get the most value for your money, look elsewhere; The membership fees are exorbitant. Granted, this gym offers many amenities in comparison to other gyms, but to put things in perspective, my previous health club in Vail, CO (a ridiculously expensive place to live) charges nearly half of what O2 charges, and offers more amenities. The hot tub and steam seem to be in perpetually alternating states of disrepair, being closed often for weeks at a time. The television sets that work are controlled by the front desk, and usually set to various channels of stupefying pablum.StaffMost of the trainers are patently unfriendly, despite frequent attempts to engage them in friendly conversations. A few of the trainers are seriously overweight, and I can count on one hand the number of times I have seen any of them on either a treadmill or an exercise bike. One of the managers in particular has treated me quite rudely on several occasions for no apparent reason.However, to be fair, there are several friendly staff members who are a credit to this gym.CleanlinessThis is probably the realm in which the gym is most lacking. I dont think the gym employs a dedicated cleaning person. The showers smell like urine, and hair collects in the drains without being removed. The cardio machines are sticky with sweat residue. Used bandages are a common sight on the pool deck, including three that I have observed lingering next to the hot tub for OVER A MONTH!SafetyI have cut myself on sharp bathroom fixtures several times. The floor of the steam room is slippery tile, and after once falling and injuring my elbow on the tile bench, I asked if they would put a rubber safety mat down on the floor. The response I was given was that to put a mat down would result in bacterial growth underneath the mat. I guess this is because they dont regularly clean or disinfect the steam room, which is a pretty big red flag. Sometimes I honestly wonder if Im going to catch ringworm or MRSA from this place someday.All that said, this gym is not all bad- there is free wifi, and the abundance of machines means that I almost never have to wait for anything. I will keep working out here with the hopes that conditions will gradually improve.

Has anyone else ever developed a rash after swimming at o2? The water is often murky and I developed a severe rash. However their management is telling me they have never once received a complaint about the pool before mine. Just wondering if that’s true. TIA

The staff is very friendly and helpful. The variety of workout equipment and classes provides something for people of all ages and degrees of fitness.

Dont base membership decisions on old reviews. Ive been a member for three years and management and staff have made incremental but effective improvements. Recent space re-organization in the mat area is much appreciated. I agree that 1-hour wi-fi is inadequate. All the TVs are anachronistic. Gut the TVs and use those funds to extend Wi-fi time. Also, while clean, the gym does not seem to be as clean since Wu-wu retired.But overall, the Cole Place O2 is leaning toward 5 stars. Appreciate management and staff efforts!

I am a new member however, Ive come as a visitor before with other members. Ive loved my experience and that is why I decided to join. However, the change from free wi-fi to only having an hour free a day and then having to pay is disappointing. I like to be able to listen to music on pandora and spotify while I work out without having to be concerned with using all of my data.

Fernando is awesome, always helpful!

I believe the classes are well taught by very qualified instructors and the equipment is plenty leaving anyone with options. My only complaint is the paper towel roll dispenser which is not the best for the volume of people using it to wipe equipment down.

This gym is on point. I would estimate that I go at least 4-5 times a week. Shoutout to Ben and Jessica at the front desk. They learned my name and always say hey when I check in. Solid folks!

I joined o2 when they had their first location at southern village. kept with them when the moved within another building. they opted to move to cole park plaza and that is when o2 became a gym. before it was as though i was working out at a hotel. now the facility is great....a pool, private rooms, a dark cardio room. i have trained with different trainers as well. i started with shawn. hes very good at training. i quit for a while mainly to do my own thing. then opted to start up again. thought i would shake it up and try one of their newer trainers allen. he gave me an assessment and i felt pretty good about being able to keep up. then at my first real training i realized he knew his business. it was the most challenging workout i have ever had. completely organized and well balanced. i have since upped my workouts with him to twice a week. i have noticed a definite transformation in my workouts and endurance. since training with allen my spin classes with curtis have become great rides(curtis is one of the best spin instructors in the area, i highly recommend him as well!).overall, its a great gym. i live downtown chapel hill and many times, i am questioned why i dont go to the wellness center. honestly, i dont want to drive through campus with students walking in to the street while texting. and now since i have such great workout incentives, its worth the additional 5 minutes to the gym. additionally, gail substituted for curtis in spin and she too is awesome!

I like that it has a pool, but the time I used my free trial, I was sold to for 40 minutes and that only gave me 20 minutes to use the trial. Fortunately, they gave me another free trial to come back.

Friendly staff. Always feel comfortable working out at this facility.

The location and the classes offered are great!

Clean, spacious, and the equipment is in good condition.

Absolutely the best place to go for a work out.

Nicer than the one in Carrboro

I really love the group fitness classes but the floor of the room is ALWAYS dirty (huge dust bunnies always floating around) despite telling them all the time that it needs cleaning.

The jacuzzi seems out of service more often than it is open.

Love the aqua fitness at North Chatham O2 Fitness!

Friendly staff who have been there for years.

Horrible the club is terrible. If you are Latino Hispanic do not even think of coming to this club. They will treat you badly. Although you pay $ 54 per month for the membership. Last Friday I witnessed that the manager of the club called the police to try to arrest a Latina lady for using the pool that senora had a paid membership. I hope the CEO and owner of these clubs (Michael Olander) will contact me, I need to know how to unprofessional the club manager is and how incompetent the director of cultural affairs and customer service is.
