HOTWORX - Smyrna, GA - South Cobb

This HOTWORX location offers a 24-hour infrared fitness studio where gym members access virtually instructed infrared sauna workouts. The core experience revolves around the infrared saunas, which are central to sessions like Hot Yoga, Hot Cycle, and Hot Blast. However, members report significant maintenance issues specifically affecting the sauna facilities. Multiple accounts describe filthy sauna floors containing hair, debris, and trash. The sauna heaters are noted to be both dirty and held together with tape, and some saunas have non-functional sound systems. Despite these recurring cleanliness and maintenance concerns, other members describe the gym as clean with state-of-the-art equipment, indicating inconsistency. The workout concept itself receives praise for providing an effective heat therapy and detox experience with a notable after-burn effect. The gym provides a variety of isometric and HIIT workouts within the infrared saunas, including Hot Pilates, Hot Core, and Hot Buns. A Functional Exercise (FX) Zone is available, though members note issues with lighting and non-functional televisions. Staff members like Shay and Darius are highlighted by some for being helpful and providing detailed instructions. The environment is described by some as self-motivating, offering health benefits that improve daily mood.
