NC Open Gym

NC Open Gym is a functional fitness gym in Arden, about a mile from I-26 exit 37 in south Asheville. It uses an open-gym format, so there are no scheduled classes. Members train on their own time. According to its website, the roughly 2,700 square foot space has squat racks, lifting platforms, dumbbells, kettlebells, barbells, rowers, assault bikes, sleds and plyo boxes. It also has showers. The site describes 24-hour access with a personal barcode. The gym lists individual, couple and family memberships, plus a short trial for first-timers and day passes.
