If you are looking for a great gym with a great atmosphere then look no further. I have known the gym owner Clay for sometime and not only is he knowledge as a coach but he also spends the time to understand your goals. The programming he creates is well rounded, challenging and constantly varied. The culture he cultivates at the gym is amazing and it makes you excited to go to the gym.

The Five isn’t like any workout experience I’ve ever encountered. It’s a welcoming and inclusive community in which members of all abilities and experience levels can explore their limits together. Each hour-long class is so expertly planned to promote strength, flexibility, and overall health, and Clay’s supportive (and no BS) coaching is second-to-none. I hate working out, but I look forward to every opportunity to go to The Five.

Update- 1 year later… Have never felt stronger in my life. Am lifting weights I didn’t think possible. Clay may be the best coach I’ve ever worked with- his attention to detail, knowledge, attitude are all above par. The community is amazing. I truly enjoy being here. Thank you Clay for what you’ve built!!

I've been a member of The Five since May 2022 and I can confidently say that this gym has improved my life in so many ways. After graduating college and therefore no longer being a collegiate athlete, I struggled physically and emotionally to find a physical activity that I could find passion in the way that I did while running track. Six years later I found this gym and I feel that same drive, competitiveness, and discipline I once had. The Five has made me feel like an athlete again. Every day is a new workout that challenges and engages us. There is a ton of variety so you can expect to never get bored and to develop a very well-rounded level of fitness. Additionally, the gym is full of some great people who I look forward to seeing every day. Everyone is supportive, humble, and genuinely happy for you when you hit that big PR. I love it here and plan on being a member for many more years!

The Five is truly the best fitness program and community I’ve ever experienced. Going from not knowing what to really do in a gym to learning how to lift was so intimidating, but Clay and the other members always made me feel so welcomed, encouraged, and inspired that I kept coming back. I leave every class feeling great, even on the days that I don’t feel like working out. The Five is *so* much more than just a gym and Rochester is so lucky to have this community!

The atmosphere The Five has built is incredible. It is not every gym you can walk in Day 1, feel comfortable with the people, the coach, the work you're putting in, the concern and knowledge behind keeping your body strong/safe/balanced, and walk out knowing you got better in some form or fashion. All in 60 minutes!! Joining this gym is a steal, Rochester is truly a lucky place. There is no dollar amount you can put to the value this place adds to your life. That's a fact. Any current member can vouch for that, guaranteed. First time working out, beginner stage, intermediate stage, looking to get stronger, looking to lose weight, looking to become fitter, happier, better? Come check it out. Do yourself a favor. Thank you Clay for dedicating yourself to helping The Five community. We are all better because of you.

I'm so glad to have had the opportunity to join The Five. I was initially hesitant to leave my old gym routine behind, but I'm so glad I did! Clay is an awesome coach and the community is so welcoming. It's a great environment to push yourself and have fun doing so! I look forward to each workout and to what the next few months will bring.

On a whim, I called The Five with the hope of finding a program for my tween son to learn the basics of strength and conditioning. Though a program did not exist, Clay took the time to listen and then, made it happen. It was four weeks of 101 instruction, building confidence, and creating connection. I'm so very grateful to him and his team at The Five. My son is looking forward to the next session and that is everything. One of these days, I too, will make the jump!

I'm so glad I stumbled across the Five Gym! As someone with next to no weight lifting background, it felt intimidating to step into a new gym. Clay (the owner) and the rest of the members made me feel welcome immediately; In my month going I've never felt judged. The workouts are great, and Clay is mindful and diligent about teaching proper and safe form. It's really a wonderful community of humans, and I'd recommend the Five for anyone looking for a change (or start) to their fitness routine. All the stars.
