HOTWORX - Nashville, TN - Midtown

This 24-hour infrared fitness studio provides gym members with access to private infrared sauna rooms for virtually instructed workouts. The core experience centers on the hot infrared sauna, where members can complete efficient 15-minute High-Intensity Interval Training or 30-minute isometric sessions like Hot Yoga, Hot Pilates, and Hot Core. The infrared heat is noted for facilitating a good, intense workout in a short amount of time. However, gym members report significant inconsistency in the cleanliness and maintenance of these sauna facilities. Multiple members describe finding the saunas in a state of neglect, citing issues like dust, scum, and broken controls, though the units remain functional. The condition of the saunas is a primary concern for many visitors, with some noting a noticeable difference in upkeep compared to other locations.

Beyond the sauna workouts, the gym offers a free weights section and a Functional Exercise area. The overall ambiance is described as great and the space is tucked away in Midtown. Staff receive mixed feedback, with some members finding them super friendly and welcoming, while others cite issues with policy communication. The total body trainer is highlighted as an effective workout option. The membership includes a clear cancellation policy that involves a fee, which some members find disappointing and unclear regarding pause options. This venue appeals to those seeking an efficient, infrared-heat-based workout in a smaller studio environment.
