The Weight Room

Fantastic experience: It's a great gym. Been a member for over a year. They have everything I need for a good workout!

Fantastic experience: Love this gym - great equipment, friendly instructors and very convenient location. I’ve been working out here for several months now and appreciate the staff here a lot!

Fantastic experience: Best gym in the area by far! The Weight Room, in Redwood City, is the perfect mix between a private home gym and a close-knit community gym. It has all the essentials, plus more, for compound lifts, accessory work, and cardio; what more do you need! There are even punching bags to hit between sets if that’s your thing. The 24-hour access makes it super flexible, and it's never too crowded, so you won’t find yourself waiting for a piece of equipment to open up between sets. Matty, one of the owners, is energetic, friendly, and knows exactly how to motivate your workout, all while making you feel welcome. I can't recommend this gym enough—it checks every box that other gyms in the area simply didn’t.

Fantastic experience: I began my journey with The Weight Room (TWR) in November 2023 after my doctor warned me that I needed to manage my blood sugar levels due to Type II diabetes. In a health class, I learned that muscle uses up to 80% of sugar intake, which inspired me to start weightlifting as part of my plan. I hadn’t been to a gym since high school, and big-name gyms weren’t my style. While searching around Redwood City, I came across a story about Alec, one of the trainers at TWR, and how he had helped a previous client. That’s when I knew Alec was the trainer I wanted to contact. I scheduled an evaluation to meet Alec and check out the gym. After our meetup it felt like the right place for me. The gym’s size felt comfortable, the members were welcoming, not supper crowded, they are open 24 hours with a membership and most importantly, Alec made a great impression. Over the last 10 months, Alec has helped me stay consistent, working out twice a week. The support from Matty, another trainer, has also been incredibly uplifting. I don’t think they realize just how much they’re helping people—so make sure to let them know every now and then! As for results, I’m beyond thrilled. My A1C has dropped from 12 to an incredible 5.9, a level that even my doctor finds amazing. I’ve lost at least 60 pounds (I only weigh myself at the doctor’s), gone down a shirt size, and reduced my waist by six inches. I truly can’t thank Alec enough for his support and the life-changing progress I've made. TWR fosters a strong sense of community among its members, which makes the experience even better. I have zero regrets about signing up and working with Alec, and I’m excited to see what the future holds! Thank you, Alec and TWR!

Fantastic experience: Taylor the trainer is great for private training. I’ve worked with him for many years. I wouldn’t want to spend my time working out with anyone else. He is the best

Fantastic experience: I joined The Weight Room a couple of months ago and it's been a great place to get my workout routine going again. I sometimes have odd hours and I like that the facility is available at 24x7. The parking lot is large enough that there is always spots available. All of the necessary equipment for a great work out is there and it's kept in clean and well organized. If you're looking for a no-nonsense place to get your workouts in, I highly recommend The Weight Room in Redwood City!

Fantastic experience: Wonderful gym! It’s more like a community in there and obviously less crowded than your commercial gym. Clean & private too! The personal trainers, Matty & Alec, are very knowledgeable and will get you to your fitness goals. Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: Best gym in RWC! Matty, Alec, and Taylor are the best owners out there. They are not only absurdly kind but also very passionate about providing the best experience to everyone that walks through their doors. I’ve known all three for years and have never once even thought about working out anywhere else. They truly care about their members and want everyone to feel welcomed and safe in their space. Additionally, my friends love working out at TWR when they’re back for the summer from college. They love the welcoming environment, and the fact that it’s never too busy. There’s a really great sense of community at the gym as a lot of the members know and recognize each other, so it’s always fun to come in every day.

Fantastic experience: The Weight Room has become my go-to spot for getting in shape, thanks in large part to my amazing trainer, Matty. His expertise, encouragement, and personalized workout plans have helped me achieve my fitness goals. The gym's friendly staff, clean facilities, and top-of-the-line equipment make every workout a pleasure. Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: Started off with this gym around the time it first open and it just keeps getting better and better! Gym equipment is great & their trainers are even better and more knowledgeable than most. Highly recommend for people who are looking for a gym that is not annoying crowded but with a feel of a private gym

Fantastic experience: Diverse set of equipment, very friendly and knowledgeable staff who do a great job of pushing you, great gym for anyone whether you're a seasoned athlete or trying to lose weight. Took a long time to find a quality gym in the area but this is the one. Owner told me he loved me 5 stars

Fantastic experience: You have GOT TO check out the Weight Room. I am a lifelong athlete and martial artist. I suffered a serious injury that had me laid up for months. When I needed to get back in shape, I came to the Weight Room. To date, I have lost 15 pounds. At first, my shoulder was so weak that I couldn't press 10 pounds. I am now doing Olympic lifts and looking forward to competing for a world masters' championship. Weight Room is a family-owned local business with a fun atmosphere. The owner and trainers know you by name and know exactly what you as an individual need to achieve your goals. If you want REAL RESULTS, the Weight Room is the place to go.

Fantastic experience: My home gym in the bay area! Equipment’s great and the owners are friendly. I LOVE YOU GUYS!

Fantastic experience: By far the nicest gym my partner and I go to. Clean, peaceful, quiet, with all the equipment and accessories for lifting and muscle recovery. The staff is extremely friendly and helpful! Highly recommended, very flexible with plans

Fantastic experience: This is a simple, classic lifting gym. No fluff, great vibe. Matty was great about getting me in for some early morning training sessions when I was in town visiting family.

Positive experience: Is NOT on classpass as was advertised in this review thread :( signed up for no reason.

Fantastic experience: Matty is a funny, energetic, and intelligent trainer. I came here to work out but instead did some training sessions to improve mobility and form and it was totally worth it.

Fantastic experience: Clean, 24/7, not crowded, and nice owners!

Fantastic experience: Amazing local gym, open 24/7, and the new location is sooo much nicer

Fantastic experience: This gym is in a great location in RWC. Nothing too fancy or ornate, the focus is on YOU and your progress. The personal trainers are extremely friendly and approachable, and they will work with you on whatever your needs are. Their goal is to build a community of people for the long term, which is such a wonderful approach to business. I highly recommend Taylor and Matty for personal training purposes!

Fantastic experience: Great place to start as a beginner, trainers are all welcoming and it isn't too overcrowded. They have a water-cooler, speaker, and some RGB lighting to vibe. Shout-out to Matty & Alec.

Fantastic experience: This gym is awesome and has a really great sense of community! Matty is a phenomenal and very knowledgeable trainer. He's really good at listening to what your goals are and figuring out the best way to achieve them. I'm fairly experienced in power lifting and I felt like he had a lot to teach me. The equipment selection is great and I like how I can come in at anytime.

Fantastic experience: My husband and I love this gym! It has everything we need and the staff there (shoutout to Matty) have created a fun friendly and safe environment to workout in. The equipment is really quality especially if you are into weightlifting. My husband loves that he can have the 24/7 membership too. Highly recommend the classes!

Fantastic experience: Small gym with neighborhood feel. Matty is an excellent trainer. I wanted to lose weight for my wedding and get in shape. i had only two months left to work on my goals. Matty understood my goals, my timeline, my dietary habits and worked on my fitness journey with me. He made me feel that he was always there to support me in achieving my fitness goals. We trained hard, and I felt strong and confident throughout my workout sessions. He was even also able to work through a difficult body ache situation with me and worked around my comfort level. I felt that I was in good hands. I would highly recommend Matty to anyone willing to work on their fitness goals.

Fantastic experience: Great gym great concept bye bye 24 !!!!!

Fantastic experience: Love love love this place! The vibe is unique and the instructors are amazing. Every work out I’m motivated and pushed in positive ways. I’m hooked! So glad I have this gym!

Fantastic experience: Best gym ever. I get privacy while working out. Never waiting for a treadmill or machine! Don’t have to book a time, none of that extra stuff. Just let myself in and have the place to myself! I play my own music over the speakers and if anyone comes in the always have a mask on! Perfect place to knock out my daily routine!

Fantastic experience: My boyfriend loves this gym because it’s on ClassPass, walking distance to most of the major apartment buildings, and has all the higher liability weights like squat racks that apartment gyms never seem to have. Their rates are a lot more reasonable than some of the major chains and I hear the folks there are friendly.

Fantastic experience: I just signed up and love it. I think that what makes this place great aside from not being over loaded with people, the fact that it's family owned. If you want peace of mind during your workout out, I recommend you check The Weight Room since you won't have to stress in waiting for available equipment...you know what that means Haha One last thing, prices are awesome and Taylor has different packages to work with you. Anyway, thanks Taylor for everything!

Fantastic experience: Great new small gym. Clean with good equipment and knowledgeable trainers.

Fantastic experience: Redwood City's best kept secret! Awesome gym with top notch trainers! The Weight Room is clean and has great equipment. I have really enjoyed working out at this gym for the past few months, and I love the fact that the gym is never crowded....When I work out at the Weight Room I don't have to wait to use equipment or search for parking. This is not a big , corporate gym...it is a relaxed family owned gym for people serious about fitness. Taylor is a wonderful trainer. He is encouraging and always takes the time to provide you with a challenging custom work out...while giving you lots of tips and pointers. Good selection of equipment. I have been a member of several Redwood City gyms and this one is the BEST! 100% recommend!
