Xcel Fitness and Crossfit

Fantastic experience: The staff is wonderful! Always helpful and friendly. An inexpensive gym with lots of variety. Mike is an awesome trainer, pushes you farther than you think you can go and is helpful even on the days he doesn't have a session with you. Teaches you about better eating habits and continually encourages you!

Fantastic experience: The staff at Max Fitness is always ready to answer any questions that I may have. They always are smiling. And they all try to help me in any of the classes when I have an injury and can't do all of what they ask me to do. Max Fitness in my opinion is the best gym in Bend,OR.

Fantastic experience: Awesome facility and amazing staff!!

Fantastic experience: Great gym & equipment. Anything you like they have, plus more. Clean facility & flexible hours. Rates are very reasonable.

Fantastic experience: My spouse and I have been members of this gym since September of last year. Out of all the gyms I have been to, this one is my favorite. Everyone is friendly and there to get their workout in. People put the equipment away when they are finished and clean up after themselves. There is plenty of equipment available, even when the gym is busy, so I can still do my full routine. I highly recommend this place!

Fantastic experience: Positive: Professionalism , Quality Xcel is a home away from home, love all the guys and gals that work there! A great comfortable place to workout, has everything I could want and need in a gym! I look forward to my gym sesh everyday!

Fantastic experience: Dropped in for an out of town WOD in the CrossFit section (wife and I), had a great WOD with friendly folks! We’ll be back when we’re out that way on vacation.

Fantastic experience: When it comes to a gym, this one is top-notch. It has all the features you would find at a large chain gym, but it also has a more personal touch. Every time I go there, they greet me by name - it's amazing!

Fantastic experience: The exercise facility is extraordinary and the personnel are familiar with each individual's name.

Fantastic experience: I'm absolutely in love with this gym that specializes in strength training.

Fantastic experience: What a great gym! Aside from the affordability and solid equipment options, these guys are doing a FANTASTIC job of managing the facility despite what is going on with COVID-19. They didn't ask me to write this. I'm writing this to clear the confusion of what you might read online. They truly ensure to the best of their ability that everyone wears a mask and maintains proper distancing during this time. It's not fair to them that some people have negatively expressed that they don't enforce this (as they are not in control of the human bodies that walk into their space and choose to disregard their policies.) So if you read reviews that say they let their people walk around without a mask on or don't care, it's a lie. Trust me, they are strict because they have to be (my husband is a great example of this. He hates wearing the mask during a workout (understandably) and has been routinely told to leave it on.) If you are looking for a gym, this is the BEST one in town! They are adapting to the current situation at hand and are managing this facility at near perfection!

Fantastic experience: I’ve tried out a few gyms here in Bend, OR and this one is my favorite. Friendly & helpful staff. It’s VERY clean and well kept. They have EVERYTHING for cardio, weights and machines that I could ever need. If you want to stay in shape or get back into shape, I can’t recommend Xcel South enough. Overall, great atmosphere for working out. Also, if you are looking for an amazing personal trainer, I recommend Owen, he’s the BEST!!

Fantastic experience: What can I say about Xcel Fitness? This place is AMAZING!!!! The front desk staff are professional, helpful, and caring. From the moment you walk in, you feel welcome. The machines are top-notch and the classes make you sweat! The owner has gone out of his way during COVID to ensure his clients are safe, happy, and healthy. It is a pleasure working out there! JOIN. THIS. GYM!

Fantastic experience: I've been going here for over 7 years...hands down the best gym in Central Oregon. Their equipment is all up to date, high quality, and they have everything covered. I especially love the atmosphere here...it's never crowded, and it's a great gym for everyone of all fitness levels, rather than the typical bro-gym full of just juiced up meat-heads. The staff are fantastic, and quickly get to know you on a first name basis. If you are looking for a place to go flex in front of the mirror and check yourself out like a world-class tool-bag, maybe go elsewhere or just stay home. If you are looking for a great gym with top-notch equipment and a great atmosphere...this is the place for you.

Fantastic experience: This is the best gym in Bend. They keep the facility very clean. The equipment is well maintained and functional. There are lots of free weights, weight machines, cardio equipment, and exercise classes. Other gyms in Bend pale in comparison.

Fantastic experience: $10 for day pass. Has TRX, free weights, machines, all cardio, row & kettle. They provide a free workout towel too. Excellent spot to get in your workout when on vacation.

Fantastic experience: Lots of equipment

Fantastic experience: I’ve always been a little intimidated to hit the weight lifting heavily because of the fear of injuries. I started working out with John Peters and now I am feeling really comfortable!! He has really dialed in my technique so I can up my weights and feel confident that I am lifting properly to prevent injury. Thanks John for changing the game!!

Fantastic experience: Fantastic local gym spot.

Fantastic experience: Cheap, great staff, quality equipment, and well maintained facilities.

Fantastic experience: Finally got myself a personal trainer after trying to do it by myself for years. Highly recommend John. Now that he’s been training me I’m seeing results that I’ve never seen before. Working muscles I didn’t know I had. He’s also helped with leg endurance for running. Go see him if u want positive change!!!

Fantastic experience: Temple of de pump

Fantastic experience: Started here just a couple weeks ago but I love the atmosphere! John is the best trainer I’ve ever had! Really motivating me to get myself back into my prime! Highly recommend stopping in and asking John for a free assessment!

Fantastic experience: We've been working out here since we moved to Bend and this place was called Elite Fitness. I was a little bit bummed when I saw that it had been sold yet again, but thus far have been super pleased with the changes implemented by X-cel Fitness. There are spray clean bottles and towels everywhere to encourage folks to clean off their equipment; staff is friendly (and I'm so happy to see so many familiar faces from Elite/Max!); class schedule is great, rates are really good, and equipment is well taken care of with lots of options depending on the type of workout I want to do. Consistently impressed.

Fantastic experience: I come to Sun River every year and use this gym for a week. It’s got everything you need to put in a quality and productive week in the gym. The equipment is nice and the price is fair. Would recommend to weight lifters and those looking for high cardio equipment.

Fantastic experience: GREAT! I'm over 50 and I love working out here! The staff is very friendly, and professional. I can always get help when I need it. Cheyenne and Chassidy are awesome! I have been weight training for over 30 years, been a personal trainer before, and joined numerous gyms in different states over the years. Max Fitness is very clean, and they have the best selection of equiptment and classes for the best price in Bend! JOIN TODAY!

Fantastic experience: I've been going here for almost two years, and I've never really had to wait or alter my workout because of crowds, despite the fact that I go in the evening. I love that it has everything you need for your workout at a very fair membership price.

Fantastic experience: Nice equipment, nice staff and place in good shape.

Fantastic experience: Nice gym and affordable

Fantastic experience: LOVE THIS GYM! We all go threw times of self motivation and unfortunately lack their of. Carly is the BEST when it comes to either! On the days it's hard to want to go as soon as I walk in the door her positive and upbeat attitude, amazing energy, along with encouragement will make all the difference. Leaving feeling so energized as well as accomplished. Not only Carly but all her staff have been so great on giving me ideas and tips. It's so nice to go to a gym where the staff is friendly, knowledgeable, and actally want to help you reach your personal goals.

Fantastic experience: Great place for the price, staff in nice and its only one of two gyms in town that has childcare!
