Chuze Fitness

Awesome gym. Love the staff and up to date equipment.
The only reason I gave 4 out of 5 stars is because they have a no grunting rule. This is fantastic but not enforced at all. A lot of the macho males in the free weight section are extremely obnoxious. It is one thing to grunt a little bit when you are struggling, but some of these guys take it to a whole different level. You can hear one particular male yelling, «YEAH BUDDY!» to himself all the way across the building. I have seen numerous staff members walk right past people doing this and completely ignoring them. I am not the type of person that likes to listen to music during my workouts, so I have to listen to that for my whole work out. Extremely distracting.

I have been going here for about a year. The staff at this specific location slowly became rude and standoffish each day I go to the gym. Poor customer service. Will be going to the one on grant for now on.

I signed up at Chuze as a premium member and had to quit because of a busy schedule but I loved my time there! It’s small and personal but not too small or crowded. VERY clean and I enjoyed the comfortable atmosphere and how friendly the staff was as well as the people going to the gym! After 6 months out of the gym I ended up rejoining because I missed it so much. If you’re looking for a comfortable/​non-​intimidating atmosphere, clean, affordable, and has the equipment you need to be healthy, Chuze is your gym! :)
PS. If you’re iffy on joining, take a tour or wait until their $ 1 sign on deal!

I LOVE Chuze Fitness! It’s clean, friendly, and had a lot to offer; classes, equipment, personal trainers, massage, hydro massage, and tanning beds. All this AND it’s affordable! The only reason I give it 4 stars instead of 5 is because I live in Denver. I’ll give it 5 stars when ya’ll come to Denver! Come to Denver!

Oh my gosh this place is great! I have been apart of a couple gyms here in Tucson and none of them compare in price or the facility! LA fitness was too packed and snobby, Platinum fitness wasn’t as clean, and the Student rec at the UofA was more of a social gathering than getting a good workout in. Chuze fitness is a place where no matter what your fitness level is you always have access to a great workout. I really like this location in particular; however when I went to the location by the Tucson mall the customer service was stupendous! When I signed up a girl named Zainib (I hope I spelled that right) got me started and was very polite and courteous. Unlike other gyms I didn’t feel pushed or swindled into getting the better workout package even though I ended up doing so! For only 19.99 a month and I got a good deal with $ 1 enrollment until September 30, 2015 You can’t beat it! Oh and did I mention the Hydro message, wow what a great way to end my workout! I did a lot of lifting so the message on my muscles really increases my circulation! I wasn’t sure how to work it or even how I would get a room but the other employee working the front, I wish I would’ve remembered her name because she was very helpful as well, was more than willing to teach me how it works. I think what I love most about this place is that the employees and the people at the gym truly want to be there! It’s not like other gyms where the girl up front just swipes your card and says have a good workout then goes back to texting. At Chuze the employees care about your fitness success! I’m defiantly going to recommend this place to all my friends and family.

I love being a chuze member. I’ve been a member for over a year now. The zumba classes are amazing, the gym is always clean, and the staff treats me like family. They always greet me with a smile on their face and always express a willingness to help. I recommend Chuze to anyone I hear is looking for a new gym because I believe Chuze is the best out there both experience and money wise. It’s a great deal all around.

Just started working out here. Overall it is fine but the free weight area has a serious lack — see below.
Friendly staff and very clean. I like the no grunting rule to keep out screamers. :) The hydro massage and childcare (8 – 11, 4:30−8) are good — I joined this one for the childcare, though I wish it were 8 – 12 and 4 – 8. Childcare has strict rules about sick kids, which is fabulous.
My serious beef is this: there no weightlifting bars and no squat rack. Smith machines, yes, but a basic Olympic bar is pretty standard weightlifting equipment. It requires stabilization muscles to engage in a way a Smith machine does not, and allows a more natural range of motion. Resistance training is key to long-​term health — I am utterly dismayed at the lack of these things. Plus, I can only access the kettle bells if there is no group class going on — get a second set and put them in the free weight area!
Third beef: don’t bother with the free fitness assessment. All they did was use an inaccurate handheld impedance machine to determine body fat, then plug in age and weight to a computer program. They didn’t take any body measurements, and completely ignored my stated goals when they input my info– so as to make them harder-​to-​reach goals do they could try to sell me personal training. Don’t waste your time.
More pluses than minuses for a mom, but for better (albeit way more expensive) strength training, check out Evolution Fitness instead.

Started going to this gym about a month ago and thought it was ok; mainly clean equipment, clean bathrooms, etc. However, after being there for 4 weeks, my opinion has changed.
The bad: They tend to be pretty packed most of the time, which is really unfortunate because the circulation in the cardio area is poor and it gets real sweaty real quick. The staff is, at best, standoffish and at worst downright rude and unhelpful.
Don’t go here if you can help it.

The gym is very affordable, clean, and friendly. It has a large assortment of well-​kept machines, hydro massage and tanning beds. What it lacks at the moment is any form of Olympic barbell, which is something every gym should have at a minimum. I ended up cancelling my membership because I got lazy, and cancelling was pretty easy and drama free.

Love the gym, the price, and services offered. However, I have experienced a few things that made the customer service experience to be less than favorable. First I will start by stating that I am a group fitness instructor and prior to signing up for a membership, I repeatedly tried to reach out the group fitness manager (Emily?) of the Tucson area facilities and have never once received a call or email response back to my inquiries about group fitness classes — this already had given me a negative outlook. Regardless, I signed up out of convenience because i have a facility close to my home and when i want a quick tan, workout, or massage i can pop over quickly. Yesterday upon arrival, I wasnt greeted. I checked in to tan and stood at the front counter waiting to tell someone how long i wanted to tan for. I continued to watch two ladies behind the counter talk amongst themselves and talk about whatever was on the computer screen at the time. After it appeared as they were done, one of the ladies stayed behind the counter and stared at her computer screen while i stood RIGHT IN FRONT of her clearly waiting for someone to help me. 5 or 6 minutes later i finally asked if anyone was working tonight — the lady acted surprised as if she didnt know i was waiting for something. DUMB! Wake up people — its service like this that turns people away. It doesnt matter whether you have a beautiful facility with all of the amenities. If the service sucks — YOU suck. Period.

Probably one of the cleanest and nicest gym that I been to! I was very happy with price, $ 10 per month or $ 20 for the premium which includes the hydro massage (probably my favorite part after a workout). Not too crowded and the front desk workers are amazing! Always there to help you out. Great service and would recommend to anyone! Keep up the good work guys!

One of the many reasons why Chuze is awesome is I get to work out with the stars. Last night I happened to be biking next to David Grohl from the Foo Fighters. But even when the celebrities are not there I feel like one, all the staff do their best to call you by name with a sweet smile. This is also by far the cleanest and most friendly gym I have ever been to. #goodpeeps #gettingstronger

No gym beats their prices and the staff is always super friendly. I won’t go anywhere else! It’s always clean and I’m always comfortable there. I have frequented all 3 locations and they all rock. So glad I found this place.

I’ve been a member of a couple of different gyms. This Chuze is great! They have a wide variety of equipment. It’s bright, clean, and doesn’t smell like a middle school locker room. The staff are friendly and helpful too. I can see why it’s popular. Normally I avoid a popular gym just because I’d rather be alone. However, the atmosphere here is positive and I don’t mind it at all.

WoW is there a Zumba class a workout! It kicked my butt this evening but it was a lot of fun. I’m really glad my friend talked me into going. If you know a member they can get you in for a $ 5 fee to take a class if you aren’t a member. Very clean facility with a ton of equipment and free weights. They also have a bunch of TVs hanging from the ceiling which you can watch while doing the cardio equipment

Well, Chuze has done it again.
They have once again proved their dedication to their business, their customers, and now, the environment.
Shortly after I posted my complaint about the recycling issue, I was assured that they have now implemented a recycling program to their Tucson locations. I was also informed that they recycle all the paper towels that they use. That was something I wondered about as well.
I hope management knows how much I (and others) appreciate their quick response and resolution to the problem. Other businesses sure could take note from the customer service here at Chuze.

I really like this gym. They offer a variety of classes, plenty of cardio equipment, and child care.
The child care part is really what won me over. I tried going to the gym at the crack of dawn before my kids woke up but that stopped after a few (OK…two) tries so it’s nice to work out without children AND at a reasonable time.
Don’t feel like working out today? They also offer hydro massage and tanning; perfect for «Mommy Time»
Child Care is offered from 8−11am and again at 5−8pm. Except Saturdays only 8−11am and Sunday is closed. My kids really like the child care workers (Ms. Katie & Ms. Jaqueline). My younger daughter is attached to me so she gives up a little fuss when I drop her off but they’ve been awesome with calming her down.
I’d recommend them to anyone!

My husband and I just joined last week and we are already thrilled with Chuze! We walked in and there was a bit of wait to talk to someone at the front, but honestly we kind of expected it as it was 5:45pm on a weekday. The girl who showed us around was very nice, and very knowledgeable and didn’t have any trouble answering our questions. We signed up that evening, and thanks to the great special they had going on it only cost us $ 21 and some change, and we didn’t have to worry about the annual fee until June.
Now that I’ve been in a few times, I can say I’m impressed with how clean everything is, and how friendly all of the staff members have been to me. I never feel like I’m being judged, and the machines are all top-​notch. I love that I can plug my headphones into the treadmill and listen to one of the TVs they have going! Every time I’ve gone in at some point during my workout a staff person is wiping down the machines that aren’t in use.
Overall, they’re really clean, the machines are well maintained, the staff is friendly and approachable, and out of the several gyms I’ve tried I’ve felt the most comfortable here and it makes me want to work out more!

I love working out at Chuze Fitness. I really don’t understand why Staci feels the way she feels. She is wrong. Completely wrong. You can’t judge the way someone looks vs. how healthy they are. It doesn’t matter nor is it anyone’s business. Staci, you don’t know if any of the associates have or had health issues and have found the secret to being fit. Isn’t that why we go to the gym to be as fit or as healthy? To judge how the workers look compared to you is ridiculous. They don’t judge you, why are you judging them?
I go to the gym to feel better about myself not to compare myself to the people who work there. That is like comparing yourself to people who are famous. Who cares? Do what you have to do for yourself.
I didn’t know how to use a machine (I know, dumb right?) But I went up to the desk to ask for help and got help immediately. It is not their job to ask you if you need help. That is what you have to do if you have a question. They can’t read minds… can you?
I also disagree that no one showed you around. The second my boyfriend and I walked through the door we were showed around. We also got to try out the awesome massage.
As far as the $ 40 is concerned, I have only been charged the forty dollars for the annual fee which is I think 90 days after you sign up. You knew that. Aren’t you an adult? You need a reminder? Come on, you aren’t fooling anyone. You’re just being mean, cuz you can.
How sad…
Like I said, I love working out at Chuze Fitness. I just started taking a class there called Hot Hula. I can’t dance to save my life but I enjoy taking this class. I laugh for almost an hour at myself and how bad I am but at least I show up and try my best, that is all anyone can ask of themselves.
I like that my membership lets me work out at any Chuze Fitness. If I am on the west side of town or near Grant and Swan, I can pop in and work out. They also have gyms in California. When I am on vacation in Cali, I can pop in there and work out 2. For $ 20 a month. I don’t think you can beat that and get healthier, too. Now if Chuze Fitness could just figure out a way to make potato chips healthy (other than don’t eat them!) I would be an even more happy customer
Everyone there is super nice and approachable. They all have great customer service skills. For anyone who does work out there or is thinking about signing up if you have a question about any of the equipment, tanning or the massage the associates are there to help and they have always helped me with a smile on their face.
Last but certainly not least, no gym calls you if you don’t go for a while. All you have to do is show up and work out. If you don’t want to talk to anyone don’t. I myself wear headphones the entire time I am there, sometimes I don’t want to talk to anyone. I just want to get my work out done and then go home. You’re not there to talk to them, you are there to get fit and healthy. I admit I don’t go every day, they never call me and I do talk to them sometimes when I am there. The gym is there for you, me and all people who want to work out.
Staci if you are still a member that’s great but if you are no longer a member you only have yourself to blame, not Chuze Fitness.
I am proud to say that I am a happy Chuzer!

Stacy, I respectfully disagree with your opinion. So what if the employees are young and «fit»? It’s a GYM! They are there to represent health and fitness… I’m sorry that you felt inadequate and out of place but trust me, the staff here is incredibly friendly and remarkably more so than the staff at other gyms in Tucson. I have been a member of Chuze since before they opened their first location in central Tucson. I know for a fact that every staff member is incredibly approachable and trained on how to use all the pieces of equipment in the facility. Not having the confidence to approach a staff member on how to use the equipment is nobody’s fault I am more than positive that had you given them a chance instead of prejudging them based on their physical appearance, you too would be a believer of Chuze.
I will say, however, that this gym is not for everyone. If you are looking for a gym where you walk in and are immediately greeted by a personal trainer that is going to put you through a tailored and customized workout, Chuze is not for you. There are other area gyms that will cater to this type of clientele, but their membership prices are upwards of $ 80-​$ 300/​month.
What I love about Chuze fitness and all their clients that go there is that we all have one thing in common– we all started somewhere. Wether you are just looking to «tone up», overweight, or trying to maintain fitness, Chuze fitness will always be there to provide the tools you need to reach your goals. All you have to do is make the commitment to yourself and start going. No one can make that choice except for you.
As far as the bank account goes, there is no way that Chuze withdraws $ 40 out of your account every month. Their highest tier of membership is $ 19.99 a month and with tax it comes to $ 21.39. They have withdraw dates either 2 or three times a month and the date that they withdraw will be clearly printed on the terms of service that you would have signed upon joining– that is probably the «reminder» you would want to refer to.
I myself will admit that I have not been the most dedicated in going the last 6 months. However this is a subscription service, not a pay as you go kinda deal. So that means wether you go or not, you bet that the money will still be withdrawn from your account. Again– this is a commitment, a dedication, and a way of life and not suited for everybody.
I personally love the east location because it’s way less volume than the other Chuze gyms in town. I started at the central location and worked my way over here when I realized I was more comfortable to do my workout routines with less people around. I personally like that the staff stays out of your way but I am not everybody– I can only speak for myself.
I hope that you do give Chuze fitness another try, as they are a remarkable gym that has the potential of bringing a healthy lifestyle to people at a reasonable price. The unlimited hydromassage and tanning are an extra bonus (although i really wish they would bring the standup booth to this location…)
I have been and will continue to be a loyal Chuze customer for many many years to come.
