Crunch Fitness - Bakersfield

Fantastic experience: So who has the best trainer in the world? I do! I’ve used trainers in the past but by far Dan is the best so far. I joined Crunch May 2024. I discovered I’m a stress eater and it showed. I instantly liked Dan when I met him and am so grateful for everything he’s done for me. The man is a saint considering how well he puts up with all my whining and complaining. I know I’m not the easiest client Anyway, fast forward to today and my little victory. I have a pair of jeans that I haven’t been able to fit into in a very long time. This morning I decided to try. Really wasn’t expecting anything but they fit! No muffin top or anything. I’ve dropped from a size 10 to a size 6 in jeans. Definitely a win in my book and I’m sure proud of myself. I definitely couldn’t have gotten to this point without him. I would have given up a long time ago. He kept pushing me and I’m so glad he did. If you are looking for a trainer Dan is your man. I recommend him. Crunch you need to give this man a raise he’s definitely worth every penny!

Fantastic experience: So amazing.

Fantastic experience: I'd like to thank Cheryl Holt for assisting me in getting a new hang tag. I was working in Sacramento and that crew was terrible and had no interest in helping me in any capacity. The club in Sacramento had me call the Bakersfield location to retrieve my serial code to check in. Cheryl was very helpful throughout the process. I can't thank her enough.

Negative experience: Heads up guys this place sucks. Equipment has been down for months. An no one knows what there really doing

Negative experience: Terrible place

Fantastic experience: Friendly staff, clean atmosphere. If your looking for a trainer I highly recommend Dan or Megan. I've been coming 3 months and I've seen noticeable results:)

Fantastic experience: Awesome gym.

Negative experience: Regularly takes weeks to fix damaged equipment, water filter will be left on red for up to two weeks, they have 100 bikes nobody uses and only one of each bench. All equipment is poorly maintained

Fantastic experience: I had an excellent experience at Crunch Fitness in Bakersfield. The staff is friendly, the facility is clean, and the variety of workout options is impressive. I've been coming here for a while now, and I highly recommend it to anyone looking for a great place to work out!

Positive experience: Equipment is great they do have a lot more than in shape that's for sure! It's not too busy in the mornings but I do wish they were a tad bit cleaner!

Negative experience: Lied about cancelling my subscription and has been charging me $30 a month for almost 2 years without my consent

Negative experience: Scam of a company, keeps charging me every month and makes it impossible to close the account

Fantastic experience: Great gym, usually very very clean, not to packed, inexpensive. Love it

Fantastic experience: Amazing customer service and top notch gym equipment. Very positive vibe.

Negative experience: Do not go to this gym the staff is unprofessional and the General Manager is a scammer. I really hope the owner of This Crunch fitness fires the General manager as he is just making him lose money and a liability to him as he will be the cause of a law suit as he has been processing payments fraudulently with out authorization of the members.

Fantastic experience: Love the heavy dumbbells

Fantastic experience: I like the gym clean and the staff is always helpful.

Positive experience: This place is clean! It does get busy on weekdays but from Friday to Sunday it is pretty calm.

Fantastic experience: Es un buen gym

Negative experience: Manager is either incompetent or a scammer, he won’t be liable for his mistakes and you end up paying the price. Make sure everything he says you have is in paper. Had a few instances where what was discussed was not the case on the contract.

Negative experience: They were mean to me

Positive experience: Every staff member I've talked to has been easy going and nice. I once dropped my earbuds case into a machine and they retrieved it for me despite the difficulty involved. In the 19 months I've been there, the machines have consistently worked and I've had no problems in the showers. I just wish they were open earlier on weekends so I could go early in the morning, and that they didn't lock me into a twelve month contract.

Fantastic experience: I have been in the gym for as long as I can remember and I have never found a gym as amazing as this one I refuse to leave because of the environment and staff Lauren and Buford are my absolute favorite staff workers to see they always acknowledge me and my kiddos definitely star employees here at crunch and feel they need more recognition forsure ‘ we love our crunch fam ! Seeing them is the best way to start our mornings !

Fantastic experience: Lots of equipment friendly staff convenient location.

Fantastic experience: Maintenance guy is so cool with everyone, seems like he's the only one who takes the time to talk with you and notice you. Yes you get greeted at the door, and gym itself is clean and has lots of variety. Dope gym! Myself, I like the getting ignored part. Lets you workout in peace with the occasional fist bump from the maintenance guy. Give it a shot.

Fantastic experience: Had a great workout with Howard, pound fit pro.

Fantastic experience: I initially gave a bad review but it was literally based on the former management and their inability to do things the right way but general manager Trey has remedied the situation and I think he's doing a really good job with the staff he has now because they're a lot more kinder... Crunch is a good place but it's just not for me..Thank you Trey for being understanding and getting the job done..

Positive experience: Fit my needs. Good hours!

Negative experience: Gym is alright for the price. Clean, organized, and good equipment. Maintenance guy is a very friendly human being. Although staff members is just horrible, need to get retrain on good customer service skills. The environment doesn’t make you feel welcome. I’m the type of person who doesn’t care on spending the money as longest its worth it. On the other hand, group classes are always getting canceled which is so annoying. Yet, now that many gyms have reopen I rather go spend my money elsewhere. Good luck getting smiles after signing for the membership.

Fantastic experience: So far so good. Good Variety of options for workout choices. Good environment. I'm always worried about the payment stuff because all of the negative feedback but usually those kinds of complaints come from whiney people with zero self accountability. I suppose I'll find out for myself.

Positive experience: It used to be a nice gym, but now they play a lot of fowl music on the radio.... I shouldn't have to hear the Joe rogan word when I go to the gym!!!

Fantastic experience: I loce working out there. I'm not very fond of the music. It is screming type music. Not loud. It is not my favorite type. Its not relaxing for me.

Negative experience: This location is poorly managed a while ago I signed up and I was signing the regular paperwork. I stoped going I wanted to cancel they said okay we'll cancel and months later I figure out I'm still being charged. They got me for "late" fees I told them I wanted to cancel again they said okay AGAIN but this time multiple members said it and confirmed it by walking in instead of calling they said they would take care of it again months later I'm still being charged now they said I had a yearly contract with them I had no idea about. so instead of cancelling it then and there for more money I figured it would cost less to wait it out I only had a month left. A month passes by and I just called, I'm still a member they're still charging me I'm they just charged me again for late fees 70+ dollars now I have to wait till tomorrow to speak with a manager who doesn't work apparently. After I ask if I could talk to corporate they said they were corporate and they handle everything. I hope this company closes this location due to these thieves

Fantastic experience: Crunch fitness

Fantastic experience: It's very motivating and very well organized

Fantastic experience: GOOD GYM FOR A GOOD PRICE

Fantastic experience: Great customer service and clean gym! Only thing missing is a suana. Only $11 month compared to $70 month with inshape. Great affordable price for a nice/ clean gym!

Fantastic experience: It's a great place to work out just a little too pricy. I will probably take action in it in the future once I get my own place close by it.

Fantastic experience: I'm definitely will stick to this gym from this moment foward.

Fantastic experience: Complete, clean, professional and one of the Top best in ca.

Fantastic experience: Loved it.

Fantastic experience: I absolutely love crunch fitness i have been going for about a year and the staff is friendly and the equipment is always clean and its never to crowded I've never heard or seen any incidents.....

Fantastic experience: Has everything you need from machine weights, free weights, and various supplements even tanning and hydro massage

Fantastic experience: It Was A Good Work Out. I Loved It

Fantastic experience: Great equipment, clean and friendly, helpful staff.

Fantastic experience: Other than this place being ridiculously busy all the time, I like it! I love the classes I could take. The personal trainers are awesome, especially Stephanie! She is so motivating! She makes a point to get to know the people she works with and I think that’s what makes her stand out!

Fantastic experience: Great customer service and clean gym! Only thing missing is a suana. Only $11 month compared to $70 month with inshape. Great affordable price for a nice/ clean gym!

Negative experience: Sweet and nice on sign up, but once you are signed up they are rude and un-attentive. Upon sign up wasn't informed it was a contract. I wouldn't recommend this gym to anyone.

Negative experience: The manager did not honor the agreed upon $10 per month membership (with Bryce, an associate team member on staff) with no start-up fee, no annual fee, and no cancelation fees (if I relocate to an area with there is no Crunch Fitness Center within 25-mile radius).

Fantastic experience: Nice and clean.

Negative experience: i had a membership for about a year (also got my wife a membership and payed for personal trainer classes 3 times a week for over 50% of the year ) this place started amazing but then it seemed to get worse and worse ... no1 cleaning equipment and nothing done when you tell the staff i have actually never seen the staff leave the front desk for more then a few minuets ( if i where to give advice about this place i would say look around for about 30min on your first free day and see if people are cleaning and also touch different equipment to see if want this quality for your money ) i changed gyms and i do pay more but honest i dont have to clean others sweat from equipment in-between using it so its worth it for me

Fantastic experience: staff helpful plenty of HOT BABES. GREAT TIME

Negative experience: The equipment and gym are brand new. The gym is cleaned every night. The employees were ok when I was there. They weren't rude, etc. They just try to up sell everything at an overpriced amount , etc, but thats normal for a business. The employees are just trying to meet their quota, make money, etc, so I get it. I signed up for a 1 year membership paid cash upfront for it, but my card was on file. They were supposed to bill the card after the prepaid membership was up. I went twice, and then covid happened. My membership was canceled without my consent. I spoke to a few different employees about this, and I was told I have to repay the sign up fees, etc. Nobody offered to fix the problem without charging me new sign up fees. Why didn't they bill my card call me etc?

Fantastic experience: Awesome

Fantastic experience: It's a great place to start but a little too pricy for me. Its not bad at all monthly. It's only $9.95. The start to me was expensive though.

Fantastic experience: Great clean place to be at .. Always feels good walking up in there n being treated with respect n kindness .. great staff Service up front n plenty of cleaning stations that provide for everyone to clean.

Negative experience: Tried canceling my memberships since October 2020. Money is still coming out of my bank account regardless of my calls and emails. They owe me $60.00 at least. Nobody responds to my requests. Nice staff but horrible management! Think twice before you give them your bank info as they squander money from you. Join planet fitness instead.

Fantastic experience: Kool

Positive experience: Always clean with a friendly crews.

Fantastic experience: I absolutely love this gym <3 and that says a lot because I was not the one to want to work out until I stepped foot into this place, now I go almost every day. I love the people who work there, they are the nicest people. I definitely recommend checking this gym out.

Fantastic experience: Early morning works best for me, all the machines are clean and ready, sanitation supplies are there to utilize, Trevor is bright eyed and receptive to my questions, music was good

Fantastic experience: Good environment and great gym equipment for a fraction of what other gyms cost. If you're trying to save money and get fit , I would recommend this place.

Fantastic experience: Sheldon is the best at his job !!! He always has great attitude!!! You go Sheldon...

Fantastic experience: When no judgements truly mean no judgements! Members and staff learn eachother...you arent just a number!

Fantastic experience: Awesome gym awesome staff!! Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: This place is the best has some good stuff it is the best place I have been to. The people there are Soo my nice.

Fantastic experience: This is the best gym I've ever joined. The staff is super helpful,energetic, and kind! Definitely will never go anywhere else :) great music ,great environment, the equipment, massage beds and tanning beds are all in good condition, bathrooms are super clean,the gym itself is clean, and they have great prices for what they offer! I also love that you can sign up on a month to month basis with no contracts. If you're looking to be in a good environment for your workout journey I highly reccomend this gym. One thing I hop they add in the future is a pool!

Fantastic experience: Amazing trainer , awesome staff, never packed and the GM Dan has went above and beyond and pointed me in the right direction to reach my goals .

Fantastic experience: Really nice workers

Positive experience: Great place great people. Especially Lauren and Jessica!

Positive experience: Good gym but I personally feel it is pretty disgusting seeing the employees outside in the front smoking and smelling like cigarettes all day. Not a healthy look.

Fantastic experience: Clean Gym

Fantastic experience: Always a great workout

Fantastic experience: Awesome gym

Fantastic experience: My favorite gym

Fantastic experience: Friendly employees! Great place

Negative experience: Tried cancelling my membership, yet the manager, Dan, who told me to come in was too busy to talk with me and never returned my phone call. Tried working with the billing department online, but still continue to get charged for a membership I have not used in close to a year. Very unprofessional and will continue to charge you even when you asked for your membership to be cancelled / put on hold. Charge an additional $60 a year for a maintenance fee even when you’re on a month to month agreement.

Fantastic experience: Great workout!

Negative experience: The gym itself is nice, and not usually crowded. The issue I take I take is how they do business. I signed up in between moving houses, so I needed a gym for a couple months at most. After two months I had found a house, so I went into the club to cancel my membership. Upon speaking to the employee on the floor, he informed me that there are no managers available during the weekend - only that they are available during business days, which was extremely inconvenient for me at the time. The employee gives me an email address where I can cancel my membership. I email the address and get a response back, I can't cancel within ten days of renewing. OK, I don't take issue with that since that's just how contracts go. I requested to be taken off the premium plan, and to be put on the standard $10 plan which the employee that signed me up for told me I could "at any time." So the final installment comes around, and not only is it the premium charge of $34.95 (for a month I didn't even use), they've also charged me $49 which I assume is the annual fee (again I used the gym for 2 months) - but no one will call or email me back to tell me what it is. It's disappointing to be treated this way from a gym I otherwise had a good experience with.

Fantastic experience: Very nice...lot's of selection for your workout. Very comfortable atmosphere at a great price!

Fantastic experience: Looks really nice for a former Vons

Fantastic experience: Love the atmosphere at this gym great staff and full selection of equipment

Fantastic experience: The cleanest gym in town great workout equipment staff is awesome

Fantastic experience: Not to crowded. The staff are friendly, knowledgeable and very helpful. It's a little hard to concentrate, the music in the fitness dance room powers over the other music and headphones. I still give it a five. Awesome place

Fantastic experience: Great gym. Staff is great and takes pride in the business. Never really too busy and tons of workout areas for anyone who shows up

Fantastic experience: They know diesels. Couldn't find a good diesel machanic. Then I was referred to them by O'Rileys.

Fantastic experience: Best gym I've been to it beats any YMCA I've had a membership to, it isn't the biggest gym but it is the cleanest out of them all. Sheldon keeps that place looking sharp and all of the staff are as good as they come 5 stars in my book.

Fantastic experience: I work here. And work out here. Its the best

Fantastic experience: I would like to thank Jason & his staff for all their help & answering questions. This gym is awesome. You can really get a great workout here. They have all new state of the art weight equipment. This place is clean & really kept up. The membership for this gym are really reasonable, compared to other gyms in Bakersfield. The staff here is awesome & caring for your needs!

Fantastic experience: Cleanest gym in Bakersfield with welcoming staff and a family friendly place. I love how it's usually not as busy as other gyms

Fantastic experience: Crunch has been fantastic. I have had a very satisfying experience with the staff and the gym itsels. Awesome. I love it.

Fantastic experience: Very clean environment, nice workers, very caring and and quik to welcome people! It's a place to clear your mind, work your body and have a pleasant time at, there's tanning and a body massager, it's great place to workout.

Fantastic experience: Tons of nice people around. Willing to help out. Work out together. Give advice. Got a month membership for free. I work at the subway right next door. We get tons of traffic from them. Good people definitely would reccomend it

Fantastic experience: Bomb.com great gym all the amenities you could ask for!

Negative experience: Literally just called 11/04/19 @ 2:14 don’t know who answered the phone but I literally asked the guy something and he would say something and them completely stop and talk to someone else and I kept saying hello & he would talk back then again would stop so I just hung up. Could’ve atleast told me to hold on. So unprofessional.

Negative experience: I joined in March and I loved it. However back in September the classes for the people at 5am are non existent. I am disappointed because I loved the classes. It is hard to work out on your own without guidance. I cannot afford a personal trainer. I know that a Planet Fitness is opening up around the corner from me so we will see what they offer for people like me . Hmmmm

Positive experience: I love the Zumba

Fantastic experience: Very complete gym.

Positive experience: They'll work with you on signup fees and they have a clean facility that isnt too busy. Tanning beds, water massage and a cool 360 degree body measurement thing so you know when you're losing fat, even if you gain muscle weight.

Positive experience: Its nice and clean they have a good amount of equipment to work out and classes look like they work you out i usually run for 30 mins and do some weights I only have a month it's nice I like it
