Downtown Fitness

Today I went by the vet on South Main to tend to Poppy and ended up having a conversation with the girl at the front desk about working out. She mentioned she would like to start working out at lunch time but lamented the fact that there is nowhere to work out Downtown. What?! I educated her.


Fogelman Downtown YMCA at 245 Madison. They have a lot of cardio and weight training equipment, racquetball courts, an indoor pool and a plethora of fitness classes. www.ymcamemphis.org/branches/fogelman/





Wellworx Sporting Club at 1 N. Main St. where you will find the usual gym set up and fitness programs. http://www.wellworx.com/







Energy Fitness, which calls itself a "Personal Training Studio", sounds intense and from what I hear it is. No pain, no gain. Located at 552 South Main. http://www.energymemphis.com/






Harbor of Health Fitness Center at 718 Harbor Bend Road just across the street from Miss Cordelia's in the Harbor Town Commercial District. They have cardio and strength equipment as well as group fitness classes. www.harborofhealth.com/services/wellness.htm

Curves at 53 Monroe - for women only. They offer a 30 minute total body workout. http://www.curves.com/

Hi - just came across your blog a few months back. I love the look of your blog and your pictures are always great. I (Tonya Tittle) am an the Owner/Dir. of Training of Energy Fitness. You did a blog post back in May of 2008 on downtown fitness. Thanks for including us. I loved your comment that we call ourself a "personal training studio" and that it sounds intense and from what you hear it is. It made me chuckle aloud as many of our clients that finally get that weight off do find that it can be intense. Hey- if they are going to down the beer and b b que then they gotta work it off. Come check us out during river fest this oct 24th - 25th (sat 10am-7 pm) and sun 10am-6 pm)
Yours in health,
