    Been in NH for the summer for work and signed up for The Zoo in Derry. Quickly sought a new location and tried the Willow St Manchester one as well before coming to the one in Bedford. Since then I haven't been back to the Derry or Manchester locations, even though they're a few minutes closer for me. Those locations are way too busy & you wind up waiting for equipment. The Bedford location is smaller than the others yet less busy at almost all times. In 3 months I've never really had to wait for a piece of equipment. Gym goers are friendly here and the staff is friendly & keeps the place very clean. Will miss this gym when I leave.

    I was a member of this club for past 4+ years or so, until I moved out of Bedford, NH. The location was very convenient. You have right balance between Cardio and strength training, at this facility. I took some personal lessons from the trainer and it was great. Very flexible in terms of schedule etc. Some of my friends took group lessons and their feedback is positive as well.

    Updated 4/3/22 - This location is now a Zoo Health Club and I'm very eager to see what changes they bring under new ownership I certainly have my own wishlist. Will update review once changes are made. Just joined this gym on 8/11/21 and so far it's almost exactly what I was looking for in a gym. It's very clean in both the workout areas, and bathroom as well. Great variety of equipment for those that want a "step up" from Planet Fitness. Those stating they wish the equipment would be upgraded/updated I am not sure of which they speak of but in my opinion the only thing that could use an update is a few of the cardio machines and even that is being very picky and "high maintenance" mentality. Eric is great! Extremely helpful and very friendly. So if your looking for a gym in the area look no further.

    the power rack near the dumbbells should go about 2 feet closer to the left wall, really awkward pulling the 45s off when they are right next to the dumbbell rack also the plates are all super sticky, hard to put them on/off the barbells, not sure if some wd40 would help or just replacing with newer set

    I joined Choice Fitness about a year ago and had a great experience. It's super clean, and the staff is great. In all my interactions, they have been very polite and courteous. The owner greeted me every single time I came in. I think this is the best gym in the Bedford area. I could have joined a gym in Manchester but chose CF because it was more personal and more like my old gym I had a membership at for 13 years. Great equipment, plenty of machines, and can't beat the hours.

    I would like to follow-up on my review from a year ago: This gym continues to be an excellent venue for working out. It is exceptionally clean, the equipment is kept in good standing and a great value for the cost of membership. Eric, the owner, is on site often and is clearly invested in the happiness of his clientele and the success of the operation. With the 24 hour availability, it is never overly crowded and I have always found the other members to be friendly and courteous. I have been a member for years and have never had an issue with billing. I highly recommend Choice Fitness!

    Use to love gym. Disappointed that it got sold to the zoo because when it it was choice fitness I had use of all there clubs for the same price. Now I'm being told if I want to use other zoo clubs I have to upgrade my membership. Some how doesn't seem right!!! Also just like the other zoo clubs it's become messy and equipment not being put away. Just what I would expect from a zoo club.

    If you enjoy getting late payment notices for all the months AFTER your membership ended this is definitely the place to go. My membership ended in January and I'm still getting notices from ABC Financial after the club has confirmed twice I have no membership. Best part is when they somehow charge your credit card after the number has changed. RESPONSE TO OWNERS COMMENT - you don't see any charges there because I got my bank involved and they took care of everything. Never heard back from your gym or ABC Financial about a resolution. Started this process in August of 2020 and finally got it resolved in February 2021. It should never be this difficult.

    Great place! The owner was super nice and helpful while I was signing up for my membership. Place was super clean, and it looks small but there is still a lot of room to move around! Highly recommend this place!

    Visited on a Saturday afternoon. Pretty much had the place to ourselves! It was clean on the floor as well as in the restrooms. Although, much smaller than other Zoo locations, it had everything we needed. We didn't see any staff on duty at any point, which is not really an issue. Will definitely visit this location again!

    Best/cleanest gym around. 10/10 would recommend to anyone looking to improve their health and fitness!

    I have been a member for many years and have always been very pleased with the facility and staff. The equipment is well maintained and the premises are always clean. There is a wide range of members: retired, not retired, young, not as young and I suspect the different lifestyles allows for different attendance times, which usually results in the gym not usually being too crowded. I have been a few times since Choice has re-opened (due to the Covid pandemic) and feel very comfortable. I had a conversation with the owner about the steps he has taken to provide a safe environment and it is obvious he cares and has taken appropriate actions. Choice is a 24 hour facility and that makes it very convenient for those who get up early. There are trainers for those who are interested in classes or personal sessions; I have never done that, but I've heard many say they enjoy and benefit from that option. I would highly recommend Choice Fitness.

    Great gym, good amount of equipment. Well maintained for the most part and the owner is awesome. Only complaint is, I go pretty late at night after work, and the door is ALWAYS unlocked. This is a safety concern and should be addressed ASAP. Not sure if the closing employees forget every single night or what, because every once in a blue moon it will be locked. I feel alot better working out with a locked door behind me. Other than that the price is a great deal for what you get, and if you have the higher level membership like me you can also go to the other locations if youre out of town!

    Met the owner today, very nice and helpful. Sign up was super easy. Place is very clean. Awesome selection of equipment. Went at rush hour times and wasn't too bad. Highly recommended!

    Great gym with an awesome selection of cardio equipment, functional turf area, free weights, and a wonderful staff. Never busy. Nothing else I could ask for.

    Really great gym, has a variety of equipment for every kind of workout you need. Seems small, but actually has enough room for everyone, never gets too crowded. Convenient 24/7 access is a plus. People are nice, and has great ownership, they provide good tips and tricks on workout forms.
