Fantastic experience: Best gym in Knoxville, they’ve built a great community and provide custom, in-depth programming. Not to mention, more than 8 different programs to choose from

Fantastic experience: This gym changed my life!! You will pay more compared to a Workout 24/7 or Planet Fitness, but you get soooo much for the money you pay! The owner Taylor Haney, has been super helpful with answering any questions about fitness or anything else. Taylor helped show me how to climb a rope for Spartan Races. There is a TON of equipment. The community is the best thing though! Everyone is very friendly when you wake up in the gym. Everyone inspires me to push harder and believe that I can do a lot more than I think I can do. I used to run noncompetitive Spartan races, but now I am running competitive races because of inspiration from the athletes. I have improved my health and fitness 10000x more than I ever did when I used to go to Planet Fitness or Anytime Fitness! Come in for a free trial and you will see what i'm talking about!

Fantastic experience: Visiting from out of town and just looking for a place to do some lifting… they had literally every piece of equipment I needed and everyone was super friendly and helpful. The atmosphere was very professional and yet laid back. My kind of gym! Thank you!

Negative experience: No AC.

Reach Functional Fitness

Thank you for competing in the USPC meet this past weekend at our facility! We notified the Powerlifting Coalition that we did not have AC in our gym, but did have it in our lobby. I'm sorry you were unaware. We will do our best to make sure that non-members are aware that we do not have AC. It's unfortunate that you felt compelled to give a us a 1-star review, given you're not a member or have utilized our services before. I would encourage you to come back and compete during the cooler months, or register at a facility that has AC in the future. Thank you!

Fantastic experience: I really don't want to tell people about this gym because I want it all to myself. It's like having your own garage gym but with every piece of equipment you want, over 5k sqft, and open pretty much whenever you want to workout. The gym is awesome, but the people are truly special. The owner is not your normal gym guy. The members are all there to improve and support each other. I reluctantly encourage anyone to stop by and check it out and meet Taylor.

Fantastic experience: Trained here for a month while TDY in the area. Coach Taylor gave me a good deal for the time I would be here and signing up took maybe a minute after a tour of the facility. Reach had every piece of equipment i needed to continue the workout program the military strength coach had me on and then some. It's a huge facility with lots of space and the staff and clientele are all super friendly. I personally never wore headphones there and the music they played was pretty good. I thought Reach was appropriate for all skill levels and fitness goals. I saw people working on beginner progression, some on mobility and recovery, body building (but the functional kind where you can still touch your toes), conditioning, powerlifting, functional fitness, etc. I saw all ages, genders and body types at Reach and it was also very family friendly. I did roughly 20 days of workouts at Reach, and availability of equipment was never an issue. They have a ton of adjustable racks and benches that can accommodate any lift/movement or core lift you plan on doing, as well as several pulley machines and several areas of dumbells/kettlebells, landmines, etc.The full list of equipment would be very long as they have everything you can think of. Don't know how to use free weights to achieve a full body workout? That's what all the coaches are for and you can load their fitness programming on your phone. I 1000% recommend this place.

Fantastic experience: This gym IS NOT a CrossFit cult. You’ll find helpful, knowledgeable staff and friendly members. Track your progress through the app-lead workouts that are included with the membership. Show up at a time that fits within your schedule and work out with programming tailored to your goals and training style. I’ve been to dozens and dozens of gyms and this by far the best. I’ve seen better results in the last year and a half here than in the last 15 years on my own.

Fantastic experience: Our Performance Training, Inc. team competed at the DEKA Strong event held at Reach. The staff was very friendly and professional. The facility is well put together with a lot of funtional space for all levels of fitness. Looks like a welcoming gym if you are looking for a gym out west.

Richard Conatser 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: I’ve been working out at home for at least 10 years because of the hassle of driving to a gym and it was just easier at home. That being said, I have several friends that that have been going to REACH and I was blown away at just how much their bodies have changed from the last time I saw them! They have been telling me for awhile how much this facility and coaches have changed their life, so I took a chance and did one day workout with the notion that I’d evaluate it for several weeks and then make make my mind up if I wanted to join. After day 1 workout, I joined without hesitation! The whole atmosphere was unlike anything I’ve ever experienced. It’s like a family and everyone helps each other and wants you to succeed just as much as they do! I’ve been going now for about 2 months and I can say that I’ve never been as sore and seen as much results ever. It’s definitely changed me in such a way that I look forward to workouts and the drive is well worth it. I told Taylor that I wanted something that pushes me well outside my comfort zone and he assured me this was it! He was telling me truth and now I’m doing things I’ve never thought I could do plus working muscles I never thought I had lol. Over all, I love this place and would recommend anyone reading this to give it a try! Get ready because it will push you and you need to have the will and heart or don’t even try. I’m happy to be part of a gym that everyone struggles and works just as hard as I do and that’s an elite gym in my eyes that I love being a part of. I truly feel like an athlete and that’s the mindset that Taylor instills and so I have no problem giving it everything I have! Thanks Taylor and the whole reach family for everything.

Fantastic experience: Amazing facility with great equipment and highly trained & skilled coaches. I have tried several crossfit and other gyms in the past and reach functional fitness is by far the best I have experienced. Coach Taylor is amazing and very knowledgeable. They also customize a fitness program for you based on your goals. The most important thing about the gym is safety, my wife and I feel safe here because I know there's always a coach watching and making sure your doing it right without hurting yourself. I highly recommend this place.

Cole Edwards 5 years ago

Fantastic experience: Best gym in town! All the equipment is brand new. I love the culture and it’s not a clicky kind of place. Everyone is super kind, but gets after it! Free weights, plenty of squat racks, hammers to swing, and sleds to push. They have weighted vests, tons of medicine balls and kettle bells. Great alternative for the old dusty machines everywhere else in town. Also, knowledgeable coaching staff and great music to keep you amped!

Forrest Tuten 5 years ago

Fantastic experience: One of the best decisions I’ve made for my health. Everything I could possibly need is right there with an extremely knowledgeable coaching staff to assist if need be. I’m stronger, I’m faster and I’m a better me physically and mentally. A big thanks to Coach Taylor and his workout plans, held within our members only app, that are equally difficult as they are enjoyable. I recommend anyone and everyone of all ages and fitness levels to check out Reach. You will likely get the right push and/or direction you need towards a better you!

Laura Anne Card 5 years ago

Fantastic experience: Love this gym! Seriously, 10 out of 10! I love that the gym provides you an app with a program that perfectly fits you.

Whether you are just starting out or been working out for years, Reach is the perfect fit for your fitness journey.
