PPF Athletics - Cumming (GA)

1 /5 Shilpa Y: I wouldn’t recommend PPF Athletics based on my experience: I signed up for a 12-month plan, but had to stop within the first month due to a severe back injury(happened because of unmonitored deadlifts) — something the owner was aware of well in advance. Despite not using the gym for the remaining 11 months, I was refused a refund. I made genuine efforts to work it out, but unfortunately, those were met with resistance and what felt like deliberate sabotage. It’s disheartening to see a business profit off someone’s pain rather than do the honorable thing. Adding to that, its not uncommon to find group classes canceled or missing a coach altogether. So be prepared for a lack of consistency. Also, don’t be misled by so-called "discounted" rates for 6- or 12-month plans. They’re a small business — you can negotiate a monthly rate without being pressured into a long-term commitment. Lastly, I paid for personal training with Richard for my daughter. Not a single session was conducted by him directly. Instead, she was placed in group sessions with one of his coaches. I essentially paid a premium for personal training that never happened — when I could’ve just signed up for group classes and saved money. Overall, my experience was disappointing — both in terms of service and integrity.

5 /5 Anthony Ferrari: I have working out for many years including at CrossFit gyms and I can tell you that is the best place to do a great rigorous workout. The trainers are excellent especially Richard Camp who is the owner. Richard emphasizes good form meeting you where you are in terms of what you are able to do with strength training and endurance. There is a program each day designed to challenge you. Richard does great job with motivation and encouragement! If you are looking to work out with a good community of people that want to improve their fitness and be challenged, then PPF Athletics is the place for you! Go give it a try! I have been here for six months and I am in the best physical shape thanks to the great team at PPF Athletics! Thank you Richard!

5 /5 Abrar Khan: Good place for young athletes. My son has been training with Coach Wayne in PPF for 2-3 months, and the difference is notable! Coach Wayne is excellent with kids and, at the same time, pushes kids to achieve more. I can see a positive change in my sons physique and confidence. Coach Richard, the owner, is an excellent motivator for athletes, but we didnt get to work with him as he focuses on senior athletes.

5 /5 Eric Moody: Moving into my 60s I decided I needed to shake things up with my fitness routine. I joined PPF four years ago and have enjoyed the work outs, coaching and fellowship ever since. The staff does a great job working with the different skill levels of its members so all feel accomplished upon completing the work out of the day. I highly recommend to all.

2 /5 Pramod krishnamurthy: Absolutely enjoyed working with the trainers here and the fellow people are nice. But, some of their policies can be better. You cannot pause your membership at any time. This is something that most of the gyms allow. So, if you sign a one year contract, but cant go to the gym due to travel or health reasons, then you have to pay for the entire year. I had a shoulder injury, so could not go to the gym for 5 months but I had to pay during those months, request to pause the membership was not considered.
