Be Complete America

like other reviewers, I could really tell the owner really cares. interesting space, upbeat music,
the direct adjacent parking is bad (meters, very tough to get) so one has to park across Hennepin, either over by the church/​under the freeway or over by Laurel Village
I took the TRX basic class after another more basic class but I found it more than basic. He was nice enough to show modifications and the class was small (2 others) so I didn’t feel too stupid. I had a really tough time getting down the stairs

It’s clear after speaking to Robben, the owner, that he is genuinely dedicated to providing the best experience he can for his members. His holistic approach to fitness AND wellness should resonate with anyone looking for a more fulfilling journey into health. Robben was kind, helpful, and encouraging. Health happens from the inside out and I think Robben has established a place well suited to that philosophy.

I recently signed up for Be Complete America and I’m pretty impressed. I think the #1 reason to join is they cap their membership so it never gets crowded at peak times. #2 reason is the owner/​operator Robben is a legit entrepreneur. He does it because he loves it… and it shows. On a final note, their rates are very reasonable for what is provided.
If you want a no nonsense gym without the crowds and constant selling pressure of the big box gyms, check this place out.

I’ve found my Minneapolis gym! I will be a member here as long as I live anywhere near the area.
Update October 2014:
This gym has added another new service that I’ve never seen before. I got an assessment using their new InBody 570 machine, and learned some neat health data that i had been guessing about before. Lean muscle mass, base metabolic rate, water levels, and even muscle balance between my left and right limbs. Very cool, especially if you are in to tracking your health with a fitbit or similar. I’ll definitely do another assessment in a few months to see what I’ve improved on.

Be Complete is exactly what I was looking for. It has all the right equipment for me – heavy weights, some fun stuff like giant ropes, tires, and punching bags, a lot of TRX equipment, and a few cardio machines.
I have been a member for a few months now, and it is never too crowded. Everyone is friendly, not in anonymous headphone mode all the time. It feels much more personal and inviting than any other gym I have been to. There is a great sound system that you can use to listen to your own music.
The trainers seem able to teach just about anything, so ask if they have what you are into.

It’s a good quality gym. The equipment is pretty up to date and the owner is really nice. They have several treadmills with some other cardio equipment which includes elliptical machines. They have a nice set of free weights as well as machines that will provide weight workouts as well. For the most part it is easy to get around. They only have one bathroom for each men and women, but I have never had to wait on anyone. I typically have gone during business hours and it’s been a great chance to workout.
