Excel is the first gym I've ever been to and I was incredibly nervous the first time I went. I signed up to have a personal trainer as well as regular membership.
From the moment I walked in everyone was friendly and welcoming. The owners, the trainers and the other clients.
My trainer (Thea) is amazing. Professional and understanding of limitations. Pushes me just enough and works with me on things I can't do quite yet. The owners are fantastic, friendly and encouraging. The facility is nice. Plenty of options and always tidy and clean. Would definitely recommend checking it out.

I've been going to Excel for quite a while for personal training mostly now. I know that if I just go to a gym I won't work out, I needed someone to really "kick my butt"!
And that is exactly what I found in Aaron! I call him colonel because he pushes me to do my best!
The gym is great! They have Zumba and a challenging series called X, which I hope to someday be able to do!!!!
It's very friendly and I love the staff

Fabulous staff, trainers and members. Everyone is friendly and helpful. Excellent cleanliness. Definitely a family atmosphere. Carolee and personal trainers are always willing to help. Pantea's professionalism and friendly smile are always there to greet you.
If you've ever considered joining a gym, don't hesitate any longer. You'll be glad you did!

"The best" place to excel your overall fitness level. The weekly programs Coach Carolee designs are for a perfectly balanced workout and she always adds twist to the workouts. My core is stronger than ever before, my running pace improved significantly from 11mins a mile to 8:30/8:50, my diet and appetite changed, lost a lot of belly fat, running injury free and all of that in just 6-7 months. You can go easy or test your limits in these workouts. Carolee pays close attention to everyone and their individual needs. The owners genuinely "care" about you and are very welcoming.

I have been a member for over 10 years and still enjoy my time at Excel. It's honestly what keeps me motivated to feel stronger, healthier, look younger, have more energy and help all my medical side of cholesterol etc. They even offer massage and let me tell you its the best you can experience! Excel is like family and the clients are so personal, polite and professional. The staff, trainers and members are what makes Excel - Excel :)

I am new to NC and wanted to try some gym. I tried only the first 3 free trails here, Unfortunately I couldn't join this club as its too far from my work place and traffic gets nasty in the evening.
Pros:
+ All the 3 classes I tried are simply amazing. Trainers really helped to push the limits and gave suggestions when I am doing something wrong in positions.
+ Awesome Front desk staff
+ No pushing or talking through to take membership
+ Month - Month Membership with no strings attached
Cons:
- Place is little worn out
- Showers are not so great

Stopped in because I was in the area and saw they had a great check in offer. Pantea, One of the owners gave me the grand tour and it is a very nice facility. It is nice to see a gym ran by two women, they even have childcare and understand the struggles of working moms. Working with them to also ensure my company gets a corporate discount. I will definitely return!!

I've been attending Excel for about 8 months now, and it's one of the best decisions I've ever made for myself. Carolee and team make the workouts so fun and innovative that I willingly drive in the bitter cold mornings to see friendly faces.
Every day I'm challenged a little more, and because of that I see myself getting stronger in mind and body each week.
While every class is incredibly fun, I found a little niche in the kickboxing classes. The first class I attended, I literally thought I was going to die from the intensity, and now I only occassionally feel like I&apos

I did the free trial for this gym, and I did not end up buying a membership. The gym seems to be in an old office building, and it's just a weird setup. The participants in the classes were pretty clique-y, and the couple of instructors that I went to were just not very nice. I ended up joining a different gym.

This is the first gym membership I actually use. Previously I would sign up at a gym all gung-ho to get in shape, last a month and then continue to be debited monthly until I got the energy to cancel.
The classroom experience Carolee provides is one of a kind and amazingly I have stuck with it for over a year and a half. My sister and husband comment on my cute arm muscles since I never had anything except flags waving in the wind. I am not embarrassed to wear sleeveless tops thanks to the workout plans Carolee designs to hit all the muscle groups.
If you decide to give it a try, do not

Great hour long boot camps with instructors that will challenge, encourage, and sometimes frustrate you.
The gym is primarily for structured workouts in a class setting. There are treadmills, nautilus and free weights which are sometimes incorporated into the classes but can also be used with memberships.
Excel offers kickboxing, yoga, spin classes, and various types of boot camps.
Fun, challenging workouts with knowledgeable instructors.
Love this place!

I am 44 years old, I have never been a gym addict, and I am very resistant to change. I enjoy eating delicious meals, dining out, and I did not have any desire at all to work out. Frankly, I am a personal trainer's worse nightmare. When I joined Excel Body Fitness in early February, I was hoping to lower my blood pressure and lose a little weight. 7 weeks later, I now have so much more energy and I lost about 10 lbs. Best of all, my pressure is WAY down! I want to thank Jessica, Angie, and Carolee from the bottom of my heart for giving me the constant and genuine motivation that keeps

I've never been a gym junkie.. and I'm very resistant to change. Therefore, when our old gym (Impact) was bought out by O2- we just kept going there. It was easy, I knew what to expect, I could go whenever I wanted (or didn't want) and nobody cared. We paid and then we went - or didn't.
However, about 2 years ago, a friend started going to 'boot camp' at this place called Excel Body Fitness (or XBF). She was all about getting in shape at the time and I didn't want to hear it. I was too comfortable to do anything about my weight- even though I needed to
