Kings Gym: Opinions

Fantastic experience: Great selection of powerlifting training tools including specialty bars and calibrated plates. Also a log, heavy dumbells, cable complex, leg press/hack squat, and an assault bike.
Fantastic experience: Love this gym! I live nearby and go to Kings over the nearby commercial gyms. The atmosphere is great and the powerlifting equipment is top notch. Squatting with a real squat bar was a revelation.
Fantastic experience: Great environment and great place to work out. You have all the equipment you really need and a bunch of great people to talk to and help enjoy your workout!
Fantastic experience: I highly recommend kings gym especially if you are a powerlifting and strength training person, hard core old school gym with fully professional equipments. Jake who was there to guide me was extremely friendly. Very good place to workout!!
Fantastic experience: Kings gym is the best gym in the valley!! It is very private so you feel like you’re at your own gym. You can play any music you like and there’s a fridge full of energy drinks, waters, etc. what really makes this gym great is the environment, the people here are very respectful and friendly. Kings Gym is more than a gym, this is a place where everyone has found a safe place to workout and feel comfortable in whether they just started their fitness journey or a powerlifter preparing for a meet. Jake offers personal training which I signed up for and it was the best decision I made. Couldn’t have asked for a better trainer, I will definitely be staying at kings gym.
Fantastic experience: This place is great, has everything you would need for a good weight lifting session. The owner Jake is also very nice and very awesome, gave this place a try while I was in town for work/visiting my parents. Give this place a shot, you won’t be disappointed!
Fantastic experience: Best secret gyn in the desert! Jake is great. Train. Don't workout!
Fantastic experience: Great choice of equipment. The sound system is awesome! Not crowded.
Fantastic experience: I honestly can’t say enough about this gym, this is the best & most ambient, equipment, privacy, & opportunity based gym, the Owner Jake is such a motivational, supportive, and driven guy and the people you meet here are so encouraging of one another, this is the best and only gym to go to as the privacy is also the finest here!
Fantastic experience: While staying in the area I reached out to the owner to see if I could lift there while in town. He was kind enough to allow me access and it was just what I needed. As a Powerlifter you’d find everything you need plus!
Fantastic experience: Was able to get a workout in on Xmas day. Thanks Jake!
Fantastic experience: This gym is everything you need; private, small with all the machines you need, the community is great. Jake, Mr. King himself is very easy going and very helpful. Not only does he give great advice, he cares for everyone in his gym. 10/10 recommend
Fantastic experience: Kings gym is amazing I have nothing but great things to say about kings gym from the members and owner being welcoming, from the great equipment and a wonderful atmosphere!! :)
Fantastic experience: Jake is a great gym owner. Accommodating and continues to upgrade the experience at his gym. If you are into powerlifting or aspire to get into powerlifting, this is the best powerlifting gym in the area!!
Fantastic experience: Great place to workout, got a crazy good pump, highly recommend!
Fantastic experience: I've been a member of this gym for a while, and it's been a great experience. Jake, the owner, is super welcoming and supportive, and he is full of valuable advice as he is a powerlifter and he also offers coaching. The gym has 24/7 access and it's smaller which creates a comfortable, uncrowded atmosphere—often finding myself working out solo or with a few friendly faces. There is a tablet with Spotify access that you can use to play whatever you want on the gym's speakers, which is awesome especially whenever you find yourself at the gym alone and don't want to use headphones. The monthly membership includes a bring-a-friend option, so you can bring a gym partner. The flexibility to cancel whenever without strings attached is also a nice perk if you have to leave for any reason. The gym currently has a few combo racks, a power rack, a deadlifting station, a bunch of dumbells and plates, a leg press/hack squat machine, a cable machine...there is basically a station and equipment to hit a good workout for the full body. Jake is also always open to recommendations and always looking to make the gym a better experience. Overall, this gym offers a fantastic, welcoming, and convenient fitness experience that I wholeheartedly recommend. If you have any questions, you should send Jake a message via the gym's Instagram @kingsbarbellclub
Fantastic experience: Kings was just what we needed to get a training session in whilst we were in Palm Springs. Jake was extremy helpful before we even got there. There's both calibrated comp plates and steel plates, squat racks, dealift platform, benches, dumbells cable machines and other kit so just what we needed as powerlifters. Thank you Jake!
Fantastic experience: I can't speak highly enough of Jake and Kings Gym. My entire experience, from the moment I walked in for my first training session, has been fantastic. Jake is a terrific trainer. He pushes me when needed and doesn't let me chicken out, and also really works with me to prevent injuries. I'm so glad I found this place! Thanks Jake!
Fantastic experience: Great gym! Jake and Francisco were both incredibly helpful and welcoming with getting me and my friends setup here. They have lots of great equipment! (Power rack, competition style bench press/squat rack, trap bar, chalk and belts). Come here if you want to get a great workout in AND listen to loud music!
Fantastic experience: EVERY BODY IS WELCOME! No matter where you are in your fitness journey, from gym newbie to the professional athletes, there is a place for you at King's Barbell Gym! Owner and Coach Jake King will sit down with you personally, he only wants to see everyone succeed in whatever goals they are trying to achieve.
Fantastic experience: One of the best gyms around and the Owner is by far the nicest and coolest guys I’ve met 10/10 would recommend.
Fantastic experience: BEST GYM EVER!!! Very clean and has a personal feel to it. The owner is also THE BEST! He gives you all his attention and is very kind. I would definitely recommend this gym 1000 times!
Fantastic experience: Very nice gym! Highly recommend! I’ve been training with the owner for 3 months and he’s very attentive and always there when you need him. I like the fact that it’s private and all the members are nice and welcoming
Fantastic experience: The gym is always cleaned and sanitized. It's a nice and comfortable gym to train. I love that it's private and members always greet one another. The owner is super cool and is always there to help at any time. He is quick to respond when you contact him. I've been training for over a month now and I'm so glad that I found this gym !
Fantastic experience: This is a solid gym and the owner is hella awesome. Much love to this guy. Not many old school gyms out there anymore! Great place to get lift ( with chalk) and blast whatever genre of music without being judged. Also, Great place to start off powerlifting and getting to know the community.
Fantastic experience: Kings Gym is the best strength training gym in the valley. It’s always cleaned and sanitized, if you guys ever get the chance to meet Jake (the owner) he’s a cool guy that can help you out with your workout goals. He can train you if you need it, he can set you up with a workout regiment. Do you ever forget your protein or pre work out? Jake’s got you covered, he has great protein options and pre workout options before you start your pump. The gym is open all day and night, the gym atmosphere is the best. Everyone working out is nice and eager to help you out when you need it. The gym has various workout equipment like I mentioned earlier it’s always cleaned. Everyone cleans the machines after they use it.
Fantastic experience: Zero cardio machines, hurray! Run by a competitive powerlifter, 2 squat racks, 2 benches with safeties, barbells with knurling, chalk (!), cable machine, so basic but perfect, plus Jake, the owner, is charming and the other lifters I met while in town for a couple of weeks were super-friendly. Highly recommend if you're in Palm Springs.
Fantastic experience: Friendly owner, good space, well equipped!
Fantastic experience: Sick spot! Owner is responsive, drop in fee is a great deal, and it’s everything a powerlifter needs. Feels like having a fully kitted out home gym!
Fantastic experience: HIGHLY RECOMMENDED. Private/lowkey, open 24hrs, solid free weight equipment & surround sound speakers SUPER SAIYAN MODE UNLOCKED!
Fantastic experience: Looking for the best gym or fitness center? Head over to Kings Gym. With state of art gym equipment designed for beginners to high-class award-winning athletes, Kings Gym has it all. Many commercial gyms try to sign clients for a long-term contract and staff is mostly nasty because they are not in control; but at Kings Gym it is a month-to-month contract, you can cancel anytime, and staff is always with the utmost respect. The owner Jake is always there ensuring everything is set to his highest standard, by ensuring the entire gym from flooring to equipment is clean and well maintained. Kings Gym is not too crowded and offers personal training sessions with Jake and others. As a gym enthusiast and lifter for over 5 years now this gym is my favorite, and I will always be a member here at Kings Gym.
Fantastic experience: A very nice clean gym 10/10 recommend!
Fantastic experience: I have been searching for a place to build my strength and willpower, but had difficulties finding a good gym that met my goals and needs. King's gym is a hidden gym that has great service and equipment. I have been able to achieve more and have found the atmosphere to be inviting. They provided me with the tools and advice to become the person I wanted to be. I would recommend this gym to anyone who seeks more and wants to commit to improving themselves. Even if you don't know where to start, they will help guide you in the right path.
Fantastic experience: Kings Gym is by far the best gym I’ve ever been to. Such an amazing, supportive environment where you can train and learn how to get stronger, regardless of your lifting experience. I didn’t know a ton about deadlift form, and Jake the owner really took his time to help me improve. I took it from 245lb to 345lb in just 3 weeks thanks to his amazing coaching. You’ll find nothing but the kindest people here who will help you become a stronger version of you. Oh yeah and the music is awesome.
Fantastic experience: Jake the owner is a super cool guy. Super down to earth. His gym is simple yet contains the essentials to get strong and build muscle. It is also very private and there is no need to wait for a rack to open up. Highly Recommend.
Fantastic experience: Size doesn't matter! This gym is small but mighty! I have been visiting with my fiance since he powerlifts. It's a great gym that has plenty of weights and equipment, even for people who are just trying to stay fit. The space is very clean and private and I never need to wait to use anything! Most of the time, I get to play my own music since we are the only ones there, so it really helps me get into the zone. The owner of the gym is around regularly and is helpful in giving advice, workout tips, or introducing new exercises for me! Really love being able to lift some weights in such a welcoming space.
Fantastic experience: Great "hidden gem". It's tough finding an adequate powerlifting gym and I've finally found it! Jake, the owner, has plenty of equipment and plates for you to PR and continue getting stronger. Think of a gym run by a powerlifter, built for powerlifters. Can't beat the price point, either! So stoked I found this place and it will forever be my home in the desert when it comes to lifting.
Fantastic experience: Private warehouse gym. Never crowded like other gyms, 3 people at the same time if ever… either way plenty room to get stronger and your workouts done without distraction. No fancy machines but the work gets done! Best gym in my opinion
Fantastic experience: Gym is a great place to focus and get my workout done without any distractions. Gym owner is real cool dude and will help you out whenever you need it. Best equipment for compound movements so if you're looking to build up your strength, this is definitely the place for you.
Fantastic experience: This is a great personalized gym, that you can train from a hybrid training to power lifting. I would highly recommend the gym for everyone. Anyone from beginners to advance gym goers could take advantage of this great place. Currently I am training for the Hyrox event in Los Angeles and this gym has gone as far to help acquire equipment so I can be successful. HIGHLY recommended
Fantastic experience: Been coming here for 6 months with my girlfriend. Great atmosphere. Everyone is very nice, and he has all the gym equipment you need. Highly recommended.
Fantastic experience: Best place to be glad it worked.
Fantastic experience: Low key, no frills gym in a warehouse like setting. Dumbbells, barbells and racks. Everything you need. The owner is a local powerlifter and usually present on site. Very friendly. I was in town for a weekend and was able to drop in for a very reasonable fee.
Fantastic experience: Positive: Communication , Professionalism , Quality

Fantastic experience: Positive: Communication , Professionalism , Quality
Fantastic experience: You cannot beat the pricing for your own quality small private secluded gym from everyone at these commercial gyms. I have been going to this gym for sometime now. Good atmosphere and good staffing especially the gym owner very attentive and willing to do whatever it takes to please your gym needs.
Fantastic experience: Awh man, this gym is so personal it feels good. Imagine having your own gym, your own space, with all the equipment you need. This is what my friends call "a real gym". So be prepare to workout a sweat. My first impression is that this was going to be strongman environment, and I was intimidated to come and slap on some 10's for the bench press. But I learn that this environment is all about perfecting your best self. And in my case that means light weight with no judgment which is awesome. The owner Jake, is also a very cool person. He personally introduces you to the gym, how to handle the specialized equipment, and very friendly. The best part is this gym is a no- contract/ no-anunnal fee set up. Truly a month to month gym with no hidden strings. So I would recommend coming down and give this gym a shot
Fantastic experience: Low price membership and NO CONTRACT!
