QNTM has been an amazing place for me! They have two locations with FREE parking; The Gulch (QNTM Fit Life) and the new location (QNTM Music City) on the entire 3rd floor of the 4th & Church building with all new incredible high end equipment! They also have amazing recovery items like heated sauna, red light therapy, hydrotherapy, zero gravity chairs and massage chairs so you can do everything in one place. The trainers are fabulous! I highly recommend working out with Ashton Galloway! Everyone is incredibly kind and helpful. I love my QNTM fam!
