HOTWORX - Lubbock, TX

HOTWORX - Lubbock, TX is a 24-hour infrared fitness studio where members access virtually instructed infrared sauna workouts. The core experience revolves around private infrared sauna rooms, though some members have reported issues with sauna temperature not reaching the target 125 degrees due to door seal problems. The infrared heat is a major draw, with members frequently citing its benefits, including amplified calorie burn, deeper stretches from an increased lactic acid threshold, and post-workout effects like better sleep and improved skin. The cleanliness of the sauna facilities receives mixed feedback, with some members describing them as immaculate and well-kept, while others have found specific saunas in poor condition.

Beyond the sauna, the gym offers a variety of high-intensity and isometric workouts such as Hot Warrior, Hot Yoga, Hot Pilates, Hot Cycle, and Hot Thunder rowing. However, equipment maintenance can be inconsistent, with reports of rowing machines in terrible working condition. Members appreciate the convenience of booking sessions and the ability to work out in solitude within a private space. The atmosphere is generally described as positive and welcoming, with many praising the friendly and helpful staff, though experiences with management regarding account cancellations and billing have been problematic for some. The studio also features a Functional Exercise Area.
