Federal Hill Fitness

Clean, $89/mo with a good selection of cardio and strength training options. Staff is very patient if you're going from fully sedentary to learning to work out.

I only came for a few months before moving out of the area but I loved coming here. The gym and changing rooms were always clean and tidy and the atmosphere was great for working out. The mornings were never overly crowed and there are great flex spaces to do your own workouts apart from the equipment and weights if desired. When there was an issue with my billing the management was super quick to resolve it. All around a great gym.

Decent gym but small and crowded, and unfortunately participate in the typical predatory membership practices typical from other gyms. You have to lock in to a contract for an entire year and then when you want to cancel, you have to wait up to 30 days for them to process the cancellation

Good equipment at the gym, but it gets crowded during peak hours, making it hard to find a machine. Going early offers a better experience. Overall, it’s a decent gym with helpful staff and a good range of machines.

They have good equipment and it's usually pretty empty. The locker rooms are nice and the soap/shampoo/conditioner in the showers is actually pretty good stuff. The only downsides are 1) if you're into barbell lifting you're gonna have to bench and deadlift inside of a power rack, and there's pretty limited space so you gotta focus on not bumping into equipment during your lift. And 2) I hope you like house music because it is loud and it is constant. I hear it over my headphones so I can't even listen to my own music without hearing both songs at once. So every time I come here I have to stick to podcasts, with house music playing the background. (It's not even good house its like super repetitive minimalist house). Turn down the music and get a proper bench press and I'd give it 5 stars
