Hero Training Center

The concept: Hero Training is LIKE personal training and can make you get the kind of body you want. You can show them a picture of who you want to look like, body wise, and they will get you there. They will set you up an account and take before pictures and then take pictures of you like every month, I think, or 6 weeks (that part is foggy). You are supposed to be able to access your account (for some reason they never gave me my access info although I asked for it) so that you can look at your pictures. You should also receive a meal plan, which they try to say people pay $ 100 alone for that (I call bs on that one). This plan is based on your height and weight (I had to keep asking for mine) to help you get started on losing inches.
A new meal plan is also supposed to be given to you every time you take new pic. (Never got my new one).
Workouts: They have the women’s work out and men’s separate on TV screens through out the gym. On thing that I wondered was, if your trying to get an ideal picture body type (the way you want to look) then how are you going to do that by doing the same exercise everyone else is doing? Moving on, the trainers show you how to lift properly and have good form. It’s kind of like personal training except that they have a few staff members walk around and help you as you go along. Everyday you workout different muscles. Monday’s are leg days, Tuesday’s you work on triceps and shoulder muscles, Wednesday work on biceps and back. Thursday leg muscles again…
The music kind of sucks since they are always playing whatever music the trainers feel like, mostly rap and hip hop (kind of annoying to me but not a deal breaker). After a while you get the hang of how to lift properly and they don’t help you so much anymore. They focus on the new people. So then since you have the knowledge of how to workout and lift, you kind of wonder why you need that gym anymore. Why pay $ 100-​$ 150 when you don’t really need their help anymore? The trainers are nice enough but they are a bit immature and gravitate to the young crowd.
Financial part of it: The price wishy washy, they try to get you to pay $ 150 but then go to a $ 100 a month and try to act like they are giving you a great deal both times. Even their «special» pricing or «Black Friday» special is minimum $ 100 a month. They won’t ever go lower than that. At the time there was no contract but you have to tell them a month in advance before leaving. So all in all its not a bad gym, it served it purpose. I just hated spending $ 100 a month when I could pretty much take things into my own hands without much help. I just felt like there were some inconsistencies with meal planning and not being able to access my account and the workouts not really being geared to make me look like that Pinterest model I so hoped to be like. In the end I was fit and lost inches and just purchased my own weights to do the workouts by myself. I could just never get rid of certain belly fat so I just used $ 100 a month to pay on Coolsculpting instead (yes that did work).
