Update at the end.....Been a member here for going into my 3rd year or late into my 2nd year. And things have gone from really good...to something else. The most recent massive negative is that they just moved all the machines around. And while some may say "it will just take time to get used to it"...no. It's the worst layout I've ever seen. The person on the preacher curl is sitting in the lap of the person on the seated fly machine. If I'm on the shoulder press machine, I'm 4 feet from my face being directly in the crotch of the chick on the leg extention. The ends of the bench press bars are basically touching side to side. Your knees touch the wall on the Smith Machine. It's always seemed a little crowded, especially if there's more than a few people there. And that was fine. But this change has just amplified the crowded feel to 10! Of all the bad in the last year, this was the worst step in the wrong direction.If you want to do legs and butt...this is your place! Leg and butt machines are 2/3 of the gym. Which I've overlooked. But the lack of any variety of anything else has made the experience here stale. But if you want to do legs, you'll never run out of machines. If you want to do abs, I hope you like sit-ups on the floor.Lastly, they seem to be more concerned about pushing their "personal" training than they do on the upkeep and cleanliness of the regular gym. It didn't used to be like this. Something changed. I know that some things changed in who was more hands on in management, and I don't know if that's it. Or lack of day time staff. But the Frontline Fitness that I joined, is nowhere near the same one I am at right now as I write this. It's nowhere near as clean either.I just paid for my 6 month renewal and it will likely be my last one.Update... went from 2/3 to 4 stars.. It seems that since Tucson Fit Desert Steel bought Frontline, they've rearranged the gym for the better and not only added much needed equipment, but upgraded some of the dilapidated old equipment that was falling apart under the old owner/management. Definitely feels like a better gym. I didn't give 5 stars because the new ownership is, well, new and we'll see what's ahead.
