PerformanceGaines: Opinions

4.8/5 (24 Opinions)
Tim Holme 11 months ago

Fantastic experience: Great gym for personal training or fitness generally. They have a big variety of weights and apparatus for lifting, not s as much for cardio machines.

Nicholas Larsen 11 months ago

Positive experience: Love this gym. Not crowded, well maintained, sauna and cold plunge are great. I do wish hours were extended and an extra cable machine (non air) would go a long way.

Fantastic experience: What a great place! I was recommended this gym during some travels and glad I came to get my workout in. Not only do they have all the equipment one might need (including turf, a sled, even a designated area for med ball throws), but they also have amenities (lockers, showers, sauna, ice bath) and small touches around the space that show someone really had their clientele in mind when putting it all together (reusable water bottles ready to use, towels). And the environment was the best part! It was so positive and the entire team was professional, helpful and friendly. Thanks everyone!

Fantastic experience: Dropped in for a day pass and this place is a “functional” movement dream! Big turf area, plenty of DBs and KBs, benches, rig for barbell work, few cable machines, bands and more! Not to mention front desk was friendly and all the trainers were respectful of the space too Highly recommend! Will come back any time I’m in the area

Fantastic experience: I don't have enough good things to say about Performance Gaines. I joined a few months ago after I relocated to the area for my Dad's transplant surgery and was so happy to find a spacious, well stocked gym. Brendon was the first one I met there and he was very welcoming and helpful. Not only did he help me get familiar with the gym + equipment but he set my Mom up with a wonderful trainer (Leah). Performance Gaines became a special place for me to take some self care breaks and helped me keep my fitness routine. Their facility was always COVID safe, clean, spacious and they had wonderful equipment. The staff was always accommodating as well and even offered to put cardio equipment outside if I needed. I've been a member of huge chain gyms, and there's nothing like Performance Gaines. If you're looking to find a safe space with a wonderful staff, I highly recommend.

Fantastic experience: Best. Ever. Chris is amazing and runs a great facility! The team at Performance Gaines will help you meet your fitness goals. One of the "mottos" of Performance Gaines is "When you change how you move, you change how you live." I mention this because this is not a gym filled with body builders, but rather a group of people who are actively working to improve how they move and how it impacts their quality of life. No matter your current fitness level, this is a great spot. Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: Great local gym with very friendly staff

Alexander Shea 4 years ago

Positive experience: Great spot for functional and sport specific training. Bumper plates and space for olympic lifting. Wish they had a few more specialty machines such as a proper lat machine and some leg accessory machines. But other than that it's a great place with very friendly staff

Fantastic experience: This is the best gym I've ever been to. The facility is super clean and very well-equipped, and the staff is excellent. All of the staff/trainers are smart, kind, and friendly. They helped me get the bar muscle-up! Just the perfect gym :).

Fantastic experience: Best Gym in the Area! I've been coming here for a few months for open gym, and I've loved my experience. I had been working at Functional Lifestyles down the street and the facilities and price are far superior here. The equipment is fantastic and much more advance than something you'd find in an average gym, and most of all, the staff and trainers are so friendly and accommodating. And they have awesome locker room facilities with towels! And parking is easy to find. AND it's never super crowded - not matter what time you go, e.g. 7am, or 5pm, you're guaranteed to find a barbell rack and ample space for activities. No more waiting, no more overpaying. :)

Fantastic experience: I have been to this gym 3 times now when I visit the Palo Alto area, and I love it. There are no Nautilus-style exercise machines, but there are barbells, squat racks, TRX straps, balls, and other exercise equipment that I don't entirely understand but which I believe falls in the realm of "functional" fitness. When I was missing a piece of equipment for an exercise on the list from my coach back home, the owner of the facility himself showed me how to use an alternative piece of equipment for an exercise to work the same muscles. I was also impressed because they didn't treat me poorly just because I was a visitor on a day pass that they wouldn't be able to sell a monthly membership. Everyone was super nice and helpful. Even when I locked my stuff in a locker and couldn't get it out and was afraid I would have to walk home naked, and they had to get the master key! But that's another story...

Thanks for your review, Caden! You're always welcome at PG!

Fantastic experience: WOW, THIS PLACE IS AWESOME! My experience is amazing here. All the Members, Staff, and Coaches are very helpful, welcoming, and kind. I am here to move better, feel capable, be strong, and most importantly be apart of an amazing community. The facility as a whole is clean, friendly, and with a ton of space. I have been to many gyms in the past and this one is on the top! Thank You, PG!

Thank you Miles! It's been an honor to grow with you!

Fantastic experience: Performance Gaines is my healing place. Started in May with painful back. I’m pain free; getting taller and stronger every week. I work with Dan Hefner and so does my daughter who is also out of back pain getting taller and stronger. Very friendly, nice, helpful people, facilities include lockers, clean baths, showers. The owner also has the best sock collection and I look forward to seeing what new pair he is sporting. Fun place to get taller and stronger.

PerformanceGaines

Thanks for your review, Maureen! We love seeing your smiling face every time you come in!

Fantastic experience: Everything a gym should be. Super knowledgeable and nice trainers, the best of any equipment they have. Plenty of mats, foamrollers, clean bathrooms. I feel right at home when I walk in, friendly customers and never crowded. They even have an infrared sauna now.
