We are ready to help you figure out a plan. Our gentle101 sessions allow you to ask questions, get information, and meet our staff in order to make the best decision for you. We encourage you to attend a gentle101 session to see the space we've created and learn more about the programs we offer. One of the most beneficial and unique amenities offered by Agape and gentleGYM is the therapy pool!
This is a great opportunity for you to move more comfortably. The warm water pool houses an underwater treadmill, along with a current to run or swim against. Private showers are close by and the quiet atmosphere is welcoming. It was born from Agape wanting to provide a facility for individuals who manage chronic pain, co-morbidities (multiple health issues), pre/post-surgery times, bariatric issues, and fear.

We have put extensive thought into what your needs are and how we can best meet them. Our team invests in continuing education to be on the cutting edge of knowledge and program implementation.
If you have a patient you would like to refer to the gentleGYM, our referral form can be submitted electronically, downloaded and faxed to us at 319-260-2242, or emailed to info@thegentlegym.org. Patient inquires at gentleGYM or is referred by health care practitioner. The patient must have a co-morbidity, chronic pain, bariatric issues or pre/post surgical interventions needed.
Community is defined as: a feeling of fellowship with others, as a result of sharing common attitudes, interests, and goals. We want to get a community of people together who can build trust in a space and program, so that lifestyle changes can start to trickle into their lives. Once the trickle happens, improvement will happen.
The gentleGYM is a semi-shared space with Agape Performance located in the new state of the art health campus on Viking Road in Cedar Falls. We are one of six suites in a larger FIT! Cedar Valley building that is designed to meet all your wellness needs in one spot. While you're here check out the other suites housing a coffee shop, juice bar, yoga studio and more to come!
This machine is low-impact and extremely accessible. With a spacious recumbent seat that swivels and reclines, exercisers of all sizes can move the arms and legs in a safe manner that is easy on the joints. The perfect mix of the support of the recumbent bike with the longer cylce motion of the upright bike is found in this hybrid cycle.

I enjoy going to this gym, they have wonderful equipment and an area with massage chairs, brain tap, pemf mats along with saunas...
The problem is that the saunas are not turned on some of the mornings, as they need to be preheated. If your running short on time it takes two cycles for the saunas to heat. I have mentioned this to the staff and also to the manager. Nothing has changed.... One staff member says you get the same benefit from a sauna even if it is not warmed up. Really? So if the program runs at 138 and it's 100 your getting the same benefits?

This place is exactly what I need to get back into shape. Emily took the time to listen to my needs, do a full assessment of my current condition, and then came back the next day with a full workout plan going over each exercise in detail with me! Everyone that works there is so welcoming and enthusiastic to help. Highly recommended.
