Best Tennis and Pickleball courts in Elk Grove, Sacramento County for 2026

It’s crazy how fast time passes by; I can vividly remember when the pandemic was announced and how businesses reacted. Some businesses succumbed to it, some operated as if it didn’t exist, and some businesses implemented innovative approaches to ensure that business safely (keyword) continued. In-Shape Family Fitness (formerly known as California Family Fitness) did a great job of pivoting by moving all of its equipment outdoors. Yes there were some challenges with having equipment outdoors (i.e., being subjected to the current weather, the poor air quality due to nearby fires, and the occasional bug on equipment); however, it kept the facility in operation and allowed for us die-hard “athletes” to keep our bodies in shape. With that being said I have been at this facility for four years and there are many reasons why I retain my membership, the following is one of the reasons why. Since I have been a member at In-Shape Family Fitness, I have noticed that the gym has made both subtle and not so subtle upgrades. The subtle upgrades being bringing in newer equipment to replace older equipment and having rare equipment such as having a Deadlift Bar Jack that makes it easier to load and unload a barbell. The non-subtle upgrade being the recent transformation of the gym’s floor plan. Previous to the revamp, equipment such as dumbbells were located in two different areas in the gym, equipment was fairly close to one another (cramped), and there was very little open space (this made it hard to find an area to stand without impending on another member’s personal space). Post-revamp the dumbbells are in one central location, equipment has an adequate amount of space away from other equipment, and there is so much open space that you can grab an exercise mat and do a workout in almost any area on the main floor without fear of injuring yourself and/or another member. Although there were some temporary inconveniences, the facility did a great job of staying in operation while being under construction. This was a big win for me because the next closest In-Shape Family Fitness (close to Interstate 5) is not convenient for me to access. Even though monthly dues have increased since signing up in 2020, it makes total sense when you see the upgrades that have been made to the gym (and that continue to be made) since I became a member. By no means am I being insensitive about the fact that inflation has made it difficult for many people to hang onto luxuries such as a gym membership, I’m just making an observation. Big THANK YOU to facility manager Brandon and assistant manager Antonio for successfully facilitating such a large project. Also, I want to give a big shout-out to customer service representatives Jeremy and Shirley for never being too cool to consistently + warmly acknowledge members as they enter and leave the facility. It’s these little gestures of kindness that keep members like me coming back…keep up the good work In-Shape Family Fitness Bond Road!

Since the manager read my review and took care of the below issue, I will change my review from 2 stars to five! Thanks! Urinals and stalls are always out of order, the sauna has been down yesterday and steam was shutdown at 10pm. I asked front desk why steam is turn off, he said I don't know, but i will ask manager about it. Regularly missing basics like soap, toilet paper, and paper towels!

I enjoyed my workout. On this day I recall using chest building equipment. Which were found to be in good working order. The equipment and surrounding areas were clean and spacious.

Nyusha IS amazing!!! I have been having an ongoing issue since I joined May 2024, I've voiced my concern on the survey & in-person a couple of times but to NO-AVAIL -- When I reluctantly sent in another survey, voicing the same concern, she not only called me however also followed up with a email! I called her back to leave a voicemail and she promptly returned my call!!! She not only listened, apologized and took care of the issue all in one swift step!!! She has not only saved a client however possibly future clients as well!!!
