2004 Best Gym

Fitcorp

Let’s be clear: Gyms are not health clubs. They are not about watercooler antics and needless amenities; they are about sweating. Period. And with its slew of state-of-the-art equipment (strength-training machines, free weights, treadmills, Stairmasters, bikes, and ellipticals), that’s what Fitcorp’s Prudential Center flagship is about. There’s also a diverse mix of fitness classes and programs, and a full-time fitness training staff. All of that should be motivation enough for anyone.
