I have been coming to Pride off and on for years - consistently for the past year. I kept trying other gyms and classes but there is something that keeps me coming back to Pride! The classes really challenge and push me. I have never taken the same class twice! I have really grown in strength and its also helped me set PRs in my 10ks and Half Marathons in the past year.

Naked Danielle can't thank you enough! I'm getting better and better each month, I love it. I feel better, my asthma is better, I’m just better all around. Get excited mofo!! Thanks for kicking my ass! Looking and feeling like this means the world to me! When I really get some balls I will do some bathing suit pics! I pitch boot camp to anyone that will listen, you have got an amazing thing going on, THANK YOU!

This place is no BS! No fad workouts, no magical pills, just show up, do the work and you'll look and feel great. After 4 months here, I am in the best shape I've been in since I was a young marine. I love the variety of classes they offer. There is no judgements if your out of shape, just motivation to do what your capable of and pushing you to be your best. What I most like is their dedication to form. Knowing they won't let me screw up my back in a workout is key. When your pushing yourself every day, it's key to keep healthy. All in all, I highly recommend this gym. Give it a try no matter where your at in your exercise experience and it'll pay off.

The class options are varied, which makes getting in your workouts easier. I'm not an avid athlete by any means, so having options to keep me interested is important. My favorite class is kickboxing, because who doesn't like to punch and kick stuff. With any class, I leave drenched and exhausted (like I've done something). If you're looking for a light cardio workout in a new, air-conditioned gym, this isn't it. The gym is equipped with ski and row machines, stationary bikes, kettle bells, hand weights, weight bars, jump ropes, boxing gloves and towels. You can also purchase water if you need it. There is a spot here for the most fit of warriors and the beginner (or alumni looking to get back at it). I also see couples and singles of all ages at this gym. Great little gym in the heart of Plaza Midwood behind Harris Teeter. Check it out!

Been working out in Charlotte for 10 years. I've been to at least 30 different gyms from the Y to crossfit and many places in between. I was a certified strength and conditioning coach, personal trainer, and I have a degree in Sports Medicine. It took me a long time to find Pride Conditioning, but I'm never leaving. The place is low maintenance. It's not a spa, it's a gym. You pull right up to a parking spot, you walk in, throw down your stuff, and you make the magic happen. It's the best of both worlds- motivation of a group, but lots of personal attention. Creative workouts including everything from tractor tires, sledge hammers, gymnastic rings, speed ladders, medicine balls, and of course the basics. You work hard and you go home having accomplished something you never knew you could do. That's it. It's a no BS atmosphere where you come as you are and you meet cool people because those are the kind of people that appreciate a place like this. The owners are good solid people who love what they do, lead by example, and are extremely knowledgeable. Pride is not a fad. It's functional fitness (Added Bonus: colorful commentary from Doug and pretty killer tunes).
