Bellingham Fitness

Fantastic experience: The facility is spacious and clean, it's got every machine you could want, and the staff are great! Flynn was a great tour guide, he convinced me to join.

Fantastic experience: Shout out to Scott! Super welcoming and friendly. Love the facility. So many different machines and equipment. Will definitely be coming back. Go Cougs!

Fantastic experience: Awesome environment, clean, not overly busy, and Scott made us feel very welcome.

Fantastic experience: Excellent customer service, best Gym in Bellingham!

Fantastic experience: Great staff, clean gym, lots of equipment.

Fantastic experience: Fantastic gym, can be a bit busy at times but that's what you expect when you have a great gym. A special shout out to Scott who works there! He had to correct me with some of the gym etiquette and was absolutely fantastic about it. Super appreciated!!!

Fantastic experience: Amazing experience i did the 6 week challenge and had great results and lost 20 pounds. They continue to update machines and their facilities are always super clean. Todd was great to speak with and super understanding when things got rocky with my schedule. Efrem was an amazing trainer and always kept me super motivated and excited to come back and he taught me so many usefull things that i can use even when i can make it to the gym! They've got me excited to work out and im happy to do it here!

Fantastic experience: We like this gym a lot. Lots of different machines and free weight equipment, areas for Olympic lifting if that's what you do; and most everything is spaced out well. Friendly staff and fellow patrons, nice locker rooms (clean shower and changing areas; clean bathrooms as well). Good cardio options...new steppers; decent treadmills; time that the ellipticals were updated? Has new Pickle ball courts and working saunas. The staff don't bug you but will help when asked and are responsive to suggestions for change or improvements. We checked out a couple of different gyms in the 'Ham...been working out there about 2 years.

Fantastic experience: Great staff! wonderful gym, full of plenty equipment to stay busy!

Positive experience: I love the sauna area! I don’t have a membership but a couple times a month I will go in just to enjoy the sauna. The staff is always friendly and it has always been a clean environment. I wish they had better weekend hours because I always seem to want to soak around 8pm, but it’s a small gripe for something I really enjoy.

Fantastic experience: Best gym in Whatcom county! Friendly staff, everything is well maintained and clean. Sauna and steam are a huge plus and never out of order. About as good as it gets for a gym.

Fantastic experience: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ "I've been a member of the gym for about a year now and it has been an incredible experience. The staff is always friendly, the equipment is well-maintained, and the atmosphere is motivating. Scott and Todd are always gracious and easy to talk to, they are the type of people that I like to support and give business to. Trevor

Negative experience: Good luck seeing anybody in that gym that understands etiquette within a gym. Only reason I’m giving them two stars because they got a decent amount of equipment. Nobody wipes off the equipment after using it. There’s a bunch of disgusting creepy people in the sauna.

Fantastic experience: I had a really positive experience working with Shae, a personal trainer at Bellingham Fitness. Shae listened to my goals and limitations and made sure to keep them in mind while planning workouts. She is knowledgeable, kind, supportive, and a pleasure to be around. If you're looking for a personal trainer, especially if you are new to the gym, I recommend Shae highly!

Fantastic experience: Best place in Bellingham with many amenities. Sauna, stream room, jacuzzi, showers, and huge gym. The 6 week program is also a great and sure way to be pushed to your limits.

Fantastic experience: Best gym in Bellingham by far! Amazing environment, spacious and all of the employees are helpful and kind. Equipment is well kept and they’re constantly making improvements and keeping everything clean. Spa situation is ideal, definitely worth it to get a membership here!

Fantastic experience: Joined with my husband 3 months ago and we are so pleased; high quality equipment (& plenty of machines); clean; and new classes/equipment/disciplines added frequently!

Fantastic experience: The staff is super nice and welcoming! The facility itself has a wide variety of equipment that targets a lot of different muscles depending on what you are working out. Would recommend getting a membership.

Fantastic experience: The staff was friendly and helpful, the gym itself has wide variety of different machines and weights to help maximize my workout experience, and the overall gym atmosphere felt very welcoming and comfortable. Definitely recommend if you are looking for a beyond average gym!

Fantastic experience: I travel for work and this is one of the best independently owned and operated gyms I’ve been to. One of the best in general. The staff is super friendly, the owner is cool, and the gym is fully equipped with all the equipment you need for a good work out. The sauna is great, the steam room is great, and the hot tub great. All the lockers in the locker room have combination locks built into them, which I think is super unique. I’ve been all over the country in different gyms for 22 years and I’ve never seen that. Very cool you can just go to the gym and not worry about your stuff being tampered with or stolen because locks are built into the lockers. Since I’m traveling for work the owner also said I can start a membership and end it when I leave Bellingham. I also thought that was nice of him. Great gym! I highly recommend

Fantastic experience: Not being much of a gym person, I have liked my experience here so far. Staff is friendly and helpful. They also have been upgrading equipment the last few weeks which has been nice.

Fantastic experience: I’ve been working out here for almost a decade. The staff is exceptionally helpful and friendly. They are constantly upgrading the equipment including brand new squat racks, treadmills and even new pickleball courts! This place is not just a gym but a community that supports you through your health journey. Come join us!

Fantastic experience: They take their moto seriously “constant and never ending improvement”. The new deadlift platforms are amazing and all the employees are very helpful and always happy to help

Fantastic experience: Super friendly and knowledgeable staff. Scott and his team keeps the place spotless. The machines are in good order. It’s a pleasant place to work out.

Fantastic experience: Great team, outstanding service and beautiful gym and equipment. Best gym in Bellingham. Highly recommend!

Positive experience: Love this place but super frustrating trying to get in a late night workout and they close the sauna about 30 min before close everytime. Due to work schedule I can’t go in any sooner so I have to rush my workouts and still it seems like they close it earlier and earlier each time.

Fantastic experience: Love this place. The staff are great. There's a large selection of exercise equipment and it's never too busy. Everywhere is clean and I love the 3 indoor pickleball courts. Parking is easy too. Happy to have found this place.

Fantastic experience: Came in for a day pass and was welcomed with open arms. All the equipment worked great and the members were friendly. Everything was sanitary and up kept. When leaving the gym they offered me a full week for free. This place was great, will definitely be back soon!

Negative experience: This place is so overwhelming. The spa is over chlorinated and the sauna smells like dogs. The culture of the people there are predictably "gymmy" and for the most part I would say people were putting their bodies through maintenance processes while consciously checking out, as if their bodies are just an asset to make pretty that they really don't want to pay attention to. I was really grateful the people at the front desk didn't require me to take the gym tour and make me go through one of those sales meetings. I won't be back unless I'm desperate for a hottub.

Fantastic experience: I love this gym as it is clean and they are always upgrading equipment. In fact, they just installed new treadmills which are awesome. Plus they have great classes, a sauna, and Pickleball! I am always recommending it when anyone mentions gyms or working out. The staff is super friendly, too!

Fantastic experience: Bellingham Fitness is very well managed and offers a great value for the quality of the facility. I appreciate their consistent updating of equipment and cleanliness of the premises. I highly recommend a membership!

Positive experience: Great gym, but why is it so stinky? It smells like I’m going to get jock itch just by being in.

Positive experience: My family likes this gym but recently they switched to disposable wipes for the machines instead of the cloths and spray they had before. Not only is this extremely wasteful but there's been a steep decline in people cleaning the machines after use, which is unhygienic. We have a contract but will consider switching to another gym when it's over.

Negative experience: I only went to this gym to take a tour because I liked the idea of having access to a Sauna. When I asked for a tour, the employee told me to fill my information on a form. I put my name down, but I get too many scam emails and calls as it is and didn't want to put that down until I became a member. The employee brought another paper to sign, it looked like a waiver. He told me I needed to complete the information to take the tour. I declined. If this is how they treat people just interested in becoming a member, I can only imagine the nightmare trying to end a membership would be or God forbid getting injured there.

Positive experience: It's a very nice gym, but the spa is down almost every other time I'm here. :( It's the primary reason I pick this gym over the other ones.

Fantastic experience: Great place, great vibe, the owner goes out of his way to make sure everyone has an awesome spot to work out!

Fantastic experience: My experiences at Bellingham Fitness are wildly discrepant from those shared by some people. I “just do it” 3x per week for the past six years at the gym to maintain a level of fitness required to pass the fairly rigorous bi-annual FAA flight physical for airline transport pilots. I have found Scott to de a gentleman and scholar. He works diligently to keep the gym well maintained, spotless and stocked with modern sanitary equipment. His spirited and engaging demeanor is an asset for many members who struggle to maintaining the motivation required for a long-term commitment to their physical health. Bellingham Fitness staff - and Scott in particular - are supportive and accepting of the variety of individuals who comprise their membership base; from the kids to the “oldsters” to those with physical challenges. I know; I’ve been bringing my physically disabled sister to work out for over a year. She receives the same respect, encouragement and humor accorded to all the members. Scott, Dave and the rest of the staff are nice people. I suppose in a world ripe with cynicism, dishonesty and narcissism it’s understandable to mistake sincerity and compassion for something nefariousness. This would be a mistake. Bellingham Fitness is a wonderful family gym and a real asset for our community.

Fantastic experience: Easily the best spot in Bellingham for a good workout. Never crowded and none of the people taking up space while scrolling on their phones like the other local competitor had. 100% would recommend. The staff was also knowledgable and very friendly.

Fantastic experience: This place is great. Very friendly staff, tons of great equipment, always clean, and never overly crowded. My athlete son and I have been going here very regularly now for about three years. And as a family owned gym, we see the owners almost every day. Highly recommend!

Fantastic experience: Bellingham fitness is an awesome gym! Clean facility, lots of space and equipment to use even when it’s “busy.” I train three days a week with Ari. He is a fantastic trainer. He makes me personalized workouts and pushes me harder every week to help me reach my goals. Just the place I needed to get my confidence back in the gym!

Fantastic experience: The facilities were well maintained and built for the success of the members. The weight machines and spa were my personal favorites. Most importantly to me, the management values integrity, honesty, and respect, and that is reflected in their communication and service to the members. If you’re looking for a club in the Bellingham area, this is the one.

Fantastic experience: Love this place ! Just moved to the area . Staff are friendly and attentive - I rarely enter or leave without an employee saying hello or goodbye . Sauna/steam are always clean and operational. Members are very friendly and courteous. Great culture at this gym.

Fantastic experience: Super friendly, knowledgeable, and helpful staff. Lots of different equipment, classes, and ways to train. Huge space. Sauna, Tub, Steam Room, and Lockers are all cleanly and well kept. Affordable monthly rates. What more could you ask for, this place has it all. Would 100% recommend to anyone looking to get in shape.

Negative experience: Will be cancelling my membership ASAP. Everything about this place screams scam. It is clear that the gentleman in charge of memberships studied how to take advantage of people before he began working here. He is rude, aggressive, and doesn't take no for an answer. If he wasn't related to the owner I'm sure the dozens of complaints against him would have been sufficient for termination. The gym itself is fine, but the predatory tactics, aggressive marketing, and the fact that everything about the finances of this please scream "SCAM" has ensured that none of my friends or I will be returning here until he (and their enrollment system) is replaced with something designed for service...not trick hard working people out of their money. I want a place that is safe to work out, but this guy (David?) patrols the doorways and is constantly making laps around the gym trying to take advantage of seniors like myself by suckering them into a mess of paperwork and pricing models. The contracts and finances are hidden in an array of intentionally confusing wording and lots of hidden fees, crossed out numbers, and synonyms designed to baffle you so you'll listen to the sales pitch David has worked so hard to rehearse. Tried talking to someone about this several times, but the big guy sits at the top of the food chain to intercept any complaints before they make their way up the ladder. There are plenty of gyms in our city with great equipment and a sauna. But there is only one gym in our city with great equipment, a sauna, and David. We'll be cancelling our membership ASAP-- but I imagine we'll need to hire a lawyer to do so.

Fantastic experience: I used this gym while visiting from out of town. Great gym with all the equipment, and the owners are so kind and accommodating!! 10/10 would recommend

Fantastic experience: I’ve been a member for several years, and I see the owners at the gym everyday, working along side with their employees. They are constantly upgrading and maintaining the building, making it better and better. Over the years, they have improved the pressure of the men’s room showers, added more fans to the work out area, and have done other small upgrades. I was happy to see added (and upgraded) bicycle parking in front of the building today (10/17/23). I recommend this gym to friends and family all the time. Sauna and steam room is always clean, members and staff are friendly.

Fantastic experience: Been going to Bellingham Fitness for a few years now and the customer service there is great! David always greets me by name when I come in and today Scott gave me a free sample of one of my favorite lotions. Come to Bham Fitness if you want a friendly, low pressure workout environment with all the perks!

Fantastic experience: This is the best choice in area fitness centers by far.I looked over all the fitness centers and BF is very clean and well maintained. The staff are always ready to address your needs and always are friendly. Great Place!!!

Fantastic experience: Great experience. Highly recommend at least trying the one day pass to see if it is for you. Workers are very nice and not pushy. They take the time to show you the gym and amenities while still letting you go on your own to workout. Everything was clean and in great shape. Best gym I've been to in Bellingham by a wide margin.

Fantastic experience: Incredible gym. Traveling from Philadelphia and visiting my sister in Bellingham, the gym has everything you could need and more. Super clean and friendly staff. Can't wait to be back. Thank you for hosting me

Fantastic experience: Staff are welcoming and helpful. The place is clean and well organized with any and all amenities you can imagine. Top notch gym for the price!

Fantastic experience: I've been coming here since the beginning of the year. It's been a good experience so far! I usually go early or in the afternoon and I can always get the equipment I need, which is a huge reason I chose Bham Fitness over Fitness Evo. One thing to note if you're interested in joining is that they'll market the price as "monthly", but you pay bi-weekly, which means every so often, you're making 3 payments in one month depending on how the days of the month line up. The sales rep even wrote $45 next to the bi-weekly dues as my "monthly cost." Not a huge fan of that, but still giving it 5 stars for the friendly staff and clean facility. Side note, there's not enough trash cans around the gym. I often find myself having to go back into the locker room just to throw out my gum or trash. It would be nice if they had more! Other than that I'd recommend it here if you want good equipment without the crowd!

Fantastic experience: We love this gym! It's affordable and has great equipment and classes. We always feel like we've gotten in a good workout when we go. And the staff is always friendly too, which is a great touch!

Fantastic experience: This gym is amazing. My man Scott was so friendly and helpful. Unlike all the big gym chains, this one actually cares about the members and upholds the quality. Definitely recommend.

Fantastic experience: I recently had the privilege of working with Ari Levin in a personal training program at Bellingham Fitness, and I can't express enough how transformative the experience has been. Their expertise and knowledge in the field of fitness is truly impressive! I started with ZERO weight lifting experience, and now can confidently say that I know proper form and execution of over 40 new exercises, and have the skills to learn more and progress on my own. Ari constantly challenged me with new exercises and techniques, preventing any monotony and keeping my workouts engaging and exciting. I strongly recommend Ari to anyone seeking a personal trainer. It has made an extremely positive change to both my physical and mental health.

Negative experience: If you try to cancel your membership, they'll require a doctor's note or proof of relocation. If you tell them that you'd like to pause, they'll continue billing you. If you ask them to work with you, they'll stop responding to your emails. If you look at the quality of the equipment or the functionality of basic appliances like their showers or their lockers, it's pretty clear they don't take a lot of pride in their work. They've been voted 'best gym' for several years by incentivizing their clients to vote for them by offering free gifts. Ethics are not a top concern here. I actually had a friend apply to work the desk and he was turned away because he wasn't willing to compromise on his integrity. This gym can't compete on a basis of quality, but they are exceedingly cheap. I wish I'd realized this was a red flag before joining.

Negative experience: if this gym could not get worse! I spoke with Todd. He saw my name on my yelp review and thought it was ok to call me. He said he would only let me out of my contract if I took down the review. I told him I wanted to see improvements that's why I wrote the review. He told me that the could probably not make any new improvements because the took a loan out during covid and they are broke. He also said most gyms have carpet in the locker rooms, they are there because they don't want old people to slip. Well Todd does not realize that half of his gym has no slip mats on it already. and no gym worried about people slipping has polished cement floors. There remodeled was not a remodel they built pickleball courts that no one uses, and not according to there phone message they are free. i was told that they would be 20 extra a month. I was also told I was saving 25% a month because i signed up for 2 years. So if like Todd says they cater to seniors that really means the cater to Medicare. I would like to see how much he charges the silvers sneakers program. If not for that program the gym would be out of business. I am all for silver sneakers but i am not cool with a gym that says the cater to a certain group of people. Everyone should be treated the same! not because they can charge Medicare whatever they want. This was not a review out of spite or anger. It is out of pure disappointment. (personal trainers must be certified to train)

Fantastic experience: Best gym ever !!! All the staff are amazing. I drop my Daughter off at the kids club while I have time to work out , tan and use the sauna. the kids club is also newly renovated and there’s so much for the kids to do !

Fantastic experience: My wife and I have been going to Bellingham Fitness for 20 years! The remodel and upgrades they have done are fantastic ! It is very clean and organized . The staff are professional and have a great attitude . Amber,Dave ,Scott and Todd are welcoming. Bellingham fitness is doing a great job.

Fantastic experience: I’ve been a member at numerous Bellingham gyms and ultimately landed here at Bham Fitness. The staff is always super nice and it lacks the gym BRO vibe that other spots have (I’m looking at you Fit Evo). They provide a spray bottle and towel for everyone to wipe down the equipment they use which makes it feel very clean. And it’s not near as busy as some of the cheaper gyms. There’s actually places to park. Go figure. The sauna, steam room and hot tub are cherries on top. Note: they just did a massive expansion with pickleball courts, hot yoga and spin classes which is rad. Love this place.

Fantastic experience: Having knowledgeable and friendly staff is a huge pillar in a company’s structure. Amber is the textbook definition this. It is always great to see a friendly face so early in the morning. Thank you for doing all that you do.

Fantastic experience: Joined Bellingham Fitness after knee surgery. Got a great tour, easy sign up. Also signed up for a personal trainer. Mitch Deans really helped me get back into the fitness routine (gently!) to further my fitness goals and recovery. Very pleased!

Fantastic experience: Wow. Bellingham Fitness was incredible. My significant other and I were in town for the holidays and needed a temporarily gym for the week. Needless to say, Bellingham Fitness delivered. David and the staff in the front were phenomenal human beings and were very thorough, helpful and patient with us when we signed up. A day pass was $15 and a 7-day week pass came out to be $43.52 after fees and tax. The facilities at Bellingham Fitness were clean, the lockers were modern and the space was huge. We did not have any issues finding a place to park, the staff was polite, helpful and courteous and we never once had any issues finding a machine to use. We're a few days into our pass and we're definitely fans. We'll be coming back to Bellingham Fitness again!

Positive experience: Bellingham fitness was a great find, love to see old cybex equipment like the leg press and hack squat they have here. Some other cool pieces of equipment Hammer strength “gripper”

Fantastic experience: Bellingham Fitness is a very nice gym. I enjoy working out there and I wouldn't leave for any other gym. The staff is very friendly and the gym is very clean. If you enjoy working out you will enjoy working out there.

Fantastic experience: Kudos to the B’ham Fitness team for investing in six new Precor Recumbent Bikes. They are awesome!

Fantastic experience: I've been a member here since 1994 and have seen a few different ownership groups come and go. When Scott and Todd took over this gym it hit a new high mark. Best equipment and staff in Whatcom County!

Fantastic experience: I’ve been a member of Bellingham Fitness for several years. I believe it’s one of the best gyms in Bellingham.The staff is knowledgeable, helpful and welcoming. The variety and quality of the equipment is outstanding. I always look forward to my workouts there.

Fantastic experience: Hands down the best gym in Bellingham/Whatcom County. Has every equipment you would need to get your work out in and a lot of them as well. Also the owners and staff are phenomenal! They 100% take pride into what they do. I have been coming here for almost a year now and never once I have ever had a issue.

Fantastic experience: Mary and Todd are great! The boot camp is incredibly fun, and sets a great start to my mornings.

Fantastic experience: Let's talk about the 6 week challenge. It's ambitious. It requires you put money on the table. It's exactly what I needed to get going, to be consistent and to get results. 1. Classes are 6am-7am and 5:30-6:30pm MWF. Afternoon class has always had a ton of people, morning class ranges from 2-5 (the trainer Simon is the best!). 2. They'll give you an off-cycle workout for T, Th, Sa or Su. Be just as consistent with it to get results. 3. They'll give you a meal plan. It's TOUGH...at first. They have a bunch of recipes though, and lots of members you can get tips from who've done it. I was at 315lbs at the age of 44 starting out and honestly, it was more food than I could eat in a day, so I was still losing weight without being hungry. Show up. Be consistent. And it works. Commit to the habit and it'll keep working. 'Getting my money back' (in the form of credit) kept me coming in for 6 weeks and formed the habit to keep me coming afterwards. Once your 6 weeks are done, you can continue the boot camp-style class, get personal training or just use the gym if you've got a good groove going. As other reviews have noted, the financials are 'different'. In particular, membership billing and receivables seem to be external. Personal training and/or continuing the boot camp class is a separate process and membership is not bundled into it. It also has a 2 week billing cycle process which is weird. That said, Todd the owner was transparent about the initial cost and what the process was, and he was equally clear in terms of going over pricing options for long term use. I particularly appreciate that personal training is month to month, no locking into a year long contract, you can cancel with 30 days notice. The prices seem comparable to other places, the gym is more my speed than other places, and the results are outstanding. I'm 45 now, 3 months in, and this is the first and longest term fitness program that has worked for me. Hopefully it will work for you!

Fantastic experience: Look - If you want a reliable place to work out morning, day, or evening - Bellingham Fitness is the place. You get all the same benefits the other "average joe" gyms offer, but this place is actually sincere and authentic to the mission. The equipment is in great shape, the free weights are plentiful, and there is plenty of room for everyone. . . . . even during the busy times. Not only that, they are prepping to open another half of the gym that will more than double its capacity and class offerings. I cannot wait for the cycling, yoga, and other classes that are coming. . . . stupid Covid seems to have delayed the opening but it is coming soon. Honestly, this place is the best overall gym in Bellingham. The staff is amazing. The place is always clean (and they hold the members to account as well!) and the owners are completely down to earth and always accessible. I really can't say much more - great place, great people, and a great workout. . . . . and even more to come!

Fantastic experience: Came to washington on business and found this awesome place! Owner and staff are great and are very helpful. If I lived here, there’s no doubt this would be my home gym!

Fantastic experience: Great gym to go to! Filled with all equipment you would need for a workout and the staff are helpful. I did the 6 week challenge and was able to lose more than 25 lbs, so check that out if you want to lose weight!

Fantastic experience: Thank you Bellingham Fitness. Even though the state shut gyms down again, the team at Bellingham Fitness utilized the covered outdoor area and now have cardio and weights in that area. Even though it’s outdoors Todd and his team are making it as comfortable as possible and we can still get a good workout in. Let’s all continue to support Bellingham Fitness and get through this difficult time together. I was there this morning and the workout was GREAT! Thanks again to the team at Bellingham Fitness Update 2-19-22 Just want to give a big shout out to the front desk girls, and the rest of the staff. Always professional and friendly. They help make Bellingham Fitness the best gym in town

Fantastic experience: Scott was incredibly helpful for both my brother that actually signed up, but gave the same care and attention to me, even though I just got a day pass. Plus the place is just really nice and clean!

Fantastic experience: I love the availability of different equipment Bellingham Fitness has and I strongly appreciate how Scott welcomed both me and my toddler twins in. The daycare is great and I love how I was able to keep my membership after needing a break for personal reasons with an incredibly small fee. I definitely noticed a change in my body and the gym boosted my motivation to better myself so I’m very glad I came here and that I’m a member here.

Fantastic experience: Scott and staff member were over the top hospitable. The gym had exactly what’s needed to get built or toned with any style workout you may be seeking. Highly recommended spot.

Fantastic experience: A super great place to work out. Friendly staff and lots of space to work out. I did the fitness challenge they offer and was a little skeptical at first, but 6 weeks later I’ve lost almost 22lbs and about 4% body fat. The instructors they have for this are amazing and I would highly recommend if you’re looking to kickstart your weight loss journey or you’ve hit a plateau!

Fantastic experience: Scott and the team at Bellingham fitness were so welcoming and helpful showing me around this exceptional gym. Great amounts of cardio, free weights, and machines for all fitness level from beginner to advanced. A lot of expansion projects coming soon to the gym too for even more activities and things to do with a membership.

Fantastic experience: I love this gym! It’s usually quiet and hardly ever gets too full. The members are super respectful of each other, and the weight section is not just exclusively power-lifting men. I love the power pump class, and can’t believe that it is included in the price of the membership! Going twice a week to that alone is worth the membership fee. Huge shoutout to Scott, one of the owners. He’s always so friendly and chatty, and today literally helped me dig through the trash to find something!

Fantastic experience: I’ve been working out at Bellingham Fitness for almost 2 months now and I really enjoy it. The atmosphere is nice and open plus there’s great amenities like the sauna and tanning. Plus the upcoming studios are also a great amenity! The day or two after becoming a member I joined the 6 week challenge. I did the morning classes with Mitch (who is a great trainer!) 3 days a week for those 6 weeks plus the off day workouts. I am so happy that I accomplished my goal to lose 5% body fat! The challenge has already impacted my life greatly and I am so thankful for the investment I made for myself. Todd is great and you can tell he cares about the challengers success during and after the challenge. All staff here is kind and inviting, I would recommend Bellingham Fitness!

Fantastic experience: Just finished the 6-Week challenge! Super happy with how it helped me get back on my feet. Definitely recommend it if your trying to kickstart your fitness or get back into a routine. Thanks Todd and Jeff!

Fantastic experience: I love this place. I used to have a membership many years ago until I started working out of town. The place has so much more to offer in classes, pickle ball courts, yoga, spin. I just finished the 6 week challenge and the staff was so supportive and helpful. I recommend you give it a try, you won’t be disappointed.

Fantastic experience: I stopped in yesterday for a drop in, This facility is immaculate and the staff are very friendly and welcoming. I highly recommend Bellingham fitness. PS The steam room so good! Thank you Bellingham fitness

Fantastic experience: I stopped in yesterday for a drop in, This facility is immaculate and the staff are very friendly and welcoming. I highly recommend Bellingham fitness. PS The steam room so good! Thank you Bellingham fitness

Fantastic experience: This gym is great! I've been a member since January '22 and I love it. It's always clean and inviting, the staff is friendly, the vibes are great for all levels of gym goers. Best gym in Bellingham!

Negative experience: Disappointed. I went for my tour here, the staff were friendly and knowledgeable, the equipment choices and facilities were fantastic but what's with the false advertising re. Prices and joining fees? On big signs outside the gym is says 'no enrollment fee' again 'no enrollment' on the website. When I went to sign up I was told enrollment was $47 as free enrollment 'just ended' (walk outside and take the sign down?) On the website the membership price is advertised as $19.99 biweekly. Again on sign up I was told it's $24.99 biweekly? Is this a genuine mistake? Who knows, seems like a Convenient tactic to get people through the door and then charge them more. It's a big red flag. I would have signed up but I can't trust that they will be honest with pricing.

Fantastic experience: Prior to joining Bellingham Fitness, I had been a member of another club for over 20 years. The first thing I noticed when I arrived was the welcoming staff, especially David and Amber. The next positive impression was the cleanliness and a very large selection of equipment. That's all great but let me get back to staff. David is always ready to help and Amber is always welcoming and personal with a great sense of humor. People like Amber give the gym a welcoming personality. It was hard to leave my old gym due to the relationships I had developed over the years. Within about 4-6 weeks I felt totally at home at Bellingham Fitness.

Fantastic experience: One of the best gyms I’ve been to. The staff are all very friendly and helpful, as well as all the other members that I’ve interacted with. It has a great community vibe. Facilities are nice, and I especially appreciate that they have a sauna and steam room. Great gym!

Fantastic experience: Too many good things to list! For brevity's sake: great personal trainers (hell yeah Nina!), Super friendly staff and owners, quality equipment with great variety, great location, and awesome general vibe! Can't wait for the hot yoga to open up soon!

Fantastic experience: A bit late, but I travelled to Bellingham over thanksgiving break to visit some family that I hadn't seen in years, and I was looking for a gym to go to while I was in town. I got in touch with the owner Scott who provided me with a weeklong pass and I absolutely LOVED this gym. The equipment was in great condition, and they had several machines which I've never seen before that were great to use. Huge free weight section and plenty of benches to use! Would absolutely recommend this gym to any type of gym-goer.

Positive experience: I really do like this gym. The equipment is well taken care of and the trainers are all very kind. But the mask requirements are not inforced at all. Any time I got the the sauna area im laughed at when i have my mask on (its a gym rule) and i feel very uncomfortable and end up leaving. The staff just shrugs and says "its all about morals and there is nothing we can do." This is the most recent WA law updated 1/25/2022. 'We hope people will wear a face covering to protect the health of their friends and loved ones. However, not following the order may result in a misdemeanor subjecting the violator to a fine of up to $100 and/or up to 90 days in county jail per RCW 43.70.130(7), RCW 70.05.120(4), and WAC 246-100-070(3)' I don't wanna get sick from the gym when I already work I Healthcare. B But enjoy the rest of the gym. It's very good. Just satu away from the locker room and sauna.

Negative experience: I've been trying to cancel my membership for over 2 years now, do not go here. While the gym and the services they provide are not terrible, the extent to which I've tried to, reasonably, cancel my membership has cost me hundreds. From day one I've been lied to about my membership and, at this point, have been trying to cancel my membership for over 2 years. Not only had I been lied to about elements of my gym contract, I never asked, tried, or implied to continue my gym services past it's year long contractual end date. It's been YEARS now, I've switched gyms, and I'm still paying this parasitic company. The staff may be nice and the equipment may be okay, but they're interested in your dollar and nothing more. Don't go here. Update: finally cancelled. I know my experience is not universal and a lot of the staff are genuinely great, but I still can't recommend this gym to anyone. 2/5 stars

Fantastic experience: Awesome gym. Fair price, excellent group classes, steam room, sauna, hot tub, and nice locker rooms. Very clean and they're following covid protocols well. I completed the 6 week challenge and was super pleased with the support I got from the class instructors, personal trainers, and owners. I met the goal even though I was skeptical in the beginning! I'm excited to keep going!

Fantastic experience: I highly recommend this gym. My family previously worked out at the YMCA downtown. It was OK but didn’t quite have the vibe we were looking for. I am 46 years old, very into fitness and have been a member at many different gyms from high end spa gyms to a gym ran by bodybuilders and a strong man. We have checked out quite a few gyms here in Bellingham and found Bellingham fitness to be the best fit. We feel like for the amenities it is very affordable. It is a mix of college age students to middle-age folks, everybody mind their own business and focused on fitness. I feel safe sending my 15-year-old daughter here to train on around because it is enough of a family atmosphere that they watch out for her. But it’s still hard-core enough so that all of the equipment you need is there, all the free weights and cardio you could ask for. We do a lot of work in the fitness room which is open to anyone. We find it very relaxing for yoga and stretching as well as resistance band and medicine ball training. The steam room and hot tub are always kept clean, the whole facility is always spotless thanks to careful attention from the owners who are Bellingham locals. Check this place out after you’ve checked the cheap and crowded spots and the overpriced spots without as much equipment. Good luck finding your next gym home!

Fantastic experience: This is by far the best gym I've been to, and I've been to a lot. I have been to most in Bellingham, and this is the best. The people are extremely nice and courteous as others have mentioned, and the facilities are as clean as can be. It's a pretty good sized gym, (but not too big like the ones with accident-prone entrances that you can't get in and out of; no names mentioned) - and far from too small. This place hands down has the best Dry-heated saunas, steam saunas, and hot tub... all of them huge! I don't know about the woman's, but the men's locker room is gorgeous, large, and fully remodeled with fancy free easy-lock lockers made of wood for that country club feel. Very nice brand new covid friendly fully partitioned showers, toilets, the works,you name it. I am very pleased. Read a previous reviewer calling people "Bots" just because they like this place, how rude. The guy also mentioned that this place is a scam and screws you over because you have to cancel in person. That is not true, all you have to do is call them. Also when you sign the very easy to understand bold in your face agreement, they make it very clear that they Auto charge you monthly, and if you don't want to be Auto charged call them and tell them that you want a different plan. Being nasty for no reason and trying to ruin a business is not cool just because you have no common sense. This place is 5+ stars all the way. When I was walking out tonight I saw them building a brand new beautiful day care facility for parents on the go, they got it together! I like to see a gym that is constantly investing and making the facilities better, this place does!

Fantastic experience: Bellingham fitness is one of the best gyms I've ever stepped foot in. Being 24 and having lifted my whole life, bellingham fitness meets all of my elite fitness needs. There is enough space, machines, and equipment where I never see people waiting for a spot. I'm very excited for there new expansion, offering hit yoga, bar 3, pickle ball and more. All of this at a very reasonable price. I highly recommend.

Fantastic experience: Awesome gym, staff are very kind, and helpful. COVID 19 precautions are strictly in place so that everyone can work out safely. Members also comply with safety so that we can keep the gym open. Steam sauna, jacuzzi, and hot sauna are bonuses!! Everything is well kept and clean all the time. Great place to workout, relax, and detox mind and body!
