I like everyone I meet on the Y staff. Everyone is routinely helpful and pleasant. The facility is immaculate. The equipment is well maintained.
The community, motivation…..
I am impressed by the kindness and helpfulness of the staff. The new EGYM is a great idea. I have been working with personnel trainers for years and they are so good at working on my personal issues. The building is kept very clean. I have been telling my friends how great the Manlius Y is and I’m bringing one of them to check it out.

The wide range of facilities, programs and the friendly staff.
I use the Y for tennis and the exercise area - mostly the lifting equipment. I find that both areas are very satisfactory. I do wonder whether an adjustment to scheduling could be made in order to alleviate the parking issues that exist particularly mid-morning on Wednesdays. Many cars during the 9:30-11:00 time frame are needing to park on the lawn in various areas which will not be possible in the winter once snow plowing has commenced. Maybe the classes at that time and maybe pickleball could be staggered so that there is a bit more room for cars. The last two weeks I have parked on the lawn at the exit to the Y. It is not inconvenient in terms of walking but it is ruining the lawn and will eventually not be available. Thanks. Name removed

Outstanding leadership, extremely welcoming and that Abdul guy, talk about top notch service.
the Y is a great place, but since you are asking, here are my observations:
1. Please return the plate holders to the Hammer machines on the second floor!!! It is really inefficient to have to walk all over to get plates, especially for the machines that are far away from the two plate racks. Also, we really need a third weight rack in the upstairs area; 2 plate racks is just not enough to service the many Hammer machines upstairs.
Since the removal of the weight holders from the various Hammer machines, the plates become concentrated on a few of the machines such as the Smith Rack or the seated trap. Also the two plate racks are filled right the the edge of the bars where it is really easy for the plate to slip off and on to one's toes.
Overall, the situation with the plates in the upstairs area is really unworkable!!
2. Someone needs to make a conscious effort to organize the placement of the weight machines in both the upstairs and downstairs weight rooms. One must actually use the machine and observe how they parts swing and move around the neighboring machines. Here are some examples:
a. Downstairs: The chest/back machine is too close to the dip / pullup machine such that when a person is swinging out the chest bars, one cannot access the weight selection key for the dip machine. Just inches away from getting hit...
b. Downstairs: the squat racks are too close together such that one cannot put weights on the bars while a person is using the squat rack next door.
c. Upstairs: the leg extension and leg curl machines are in awkward positions.
d. Upstairs: The repositioning of the cable machine is not good as one often must stand directly in the walkway when using the machine.
e. Use of the Hammer Bench Press machine conflicts with people coming up the stairway and rounding the corner.
The Piloxing class that I attened was fun and a great workout.
Easy access, easy parking, friendly staff, good spaces for workouts!
