Too small and not well maintained. Crowded. The only reason it is still in business is airmen are forced to use it.

Could be set up better as far as free weights. Only one cable machine ends up making folks have to wait in line. Also extremely loud in facility, sound deadening would go along way.

Okay. I'm on a road trip, dispersed camping scenario, aka boondocking. So I only went for the shower. Where to begin? I spent several minutes looking for the light switch, only to realize the lights are on, but all the bulbs were burnt out except one. There is no adequate drainage and the entire area was flooded to a greater or lesser extent. The vestibule before the actual shower had no drainage at all, so there was an inch of water. It was impossible to change clothes correctly and safely. It was a one-handle shower, which was not a shock, but there were no markings or they were faded. The water never actually got hot. It became more or less warm and quickly went downhill from there. By the time I figured out which way to turn the handle and how far, I had spent most of what little warm water there was figuring out the controls inductively. The shower didn't actually give you a shower - it was more like a broad spray of needles. I was sick for several days afterwards and I am pretty sure the Barksdale fitness Center is at least partly to blame.
It was by far the worst excuse for a shower facility I have seen, military or civilian. And that is including two deployed locations in Southwest Asia, JET tasking army Field training etc.
FOR SHAME BARKSDALE!!!

On base gym, the biggest one available. Free to members (of course), and it has a lot available.
The only problem with it is the PTL's regularly make people run indoors, and I don't know a single person who runs better upstairs. It's nice having a track inside when it's cold... but it literally adds time to EVERYONE's run time.
So no thanks.

I work out here 5 times a week. I recommend their spin classes during lunch time. Great midday workout. Sometimes it can get a bit crowded but theres the outside track and 2 mile trail across the street. They offer lots of classes like zumba and yoga. A basketball court, racketball rooms, kids play area, 2 weight rooms, upstairs inside track, and aerobic room.

Nice turf field. Not many rowing machines. But overall a great gym. Good parking!

It's a nice place. Though there is no pool. There is only one stair master. No jacobs ladder. They recently got mirrors which help with form. 8/10 would recommend!

Always overly packed. The personnel behind the counter are usually more interested in their phones than doing their job.

nice gym for an Air Base. the leg equipment is split up between 2 rooms so i dont like that. the other room is sometimes locked so you cant do leg extensions. basketball court needs to be redone. is very slippery. other than that, the weight area is nice. good indoor, small track upstairs (2 laps= 1/4 mile). seperate rooms dedicated for abs, childrens, cardio and cycling. also 3-4 racketball courts.

Card reader at the door never seems to work. Do remember though if you are not military/military dependent, after 10 p.m., don't enter the building, you are not allowed and you will be kicked out.
