Blacksburg Health & Fitness at The Weight Club

Fantastic experience: Great gym. Great staff and trainers. Very reliable and trustworthy childcare for a cheap add on rate. Quick to repair equipment when down. 10/10 try a class or go for a day pass to try it out!!

Fantastic experience: Fun and challenging group classes with inspiring instructors and convenient schedule - Body pump, Pilates, cycle, yoga, tai-chi, core.

Negative experience: Decent gym that could use another renovation, friendly staff, extremely inconvenient hours, expensive membership. The gym has gotten complacent and used to be a whole lot better

Negative experience: lots and lots of equipment, all taken up by the hundreds of people there everyday

Positive experience: No frills type gym. Lots of equipment, pretty clean and the best part (in my opinion) huge sauna in each men’s/women locker room. Bring your own lock for the lockers and Bring your own towel for the showers/sauna. If they offered a towel service (full size towel) I’d be willing to pay a premium for it. However, if you forget a towel, Dollar General across the street has towels for only $3.50. This is in Blacksburg so lots of students here while school is in. So you might have to wait a little to use a certain piece of equipment during busy times.

Fantastic experience: Started going here during COVID and they have constantly been updating and changing things to provide the best experience they can based on feedback. The staff are extremely friendly and kind, I am more than happy to have gotten to know some of them and I hope them all the best.

Negative experience: Lots of equipment, space, and good people. However, whoever decided to get rid of the old hack squat and buy this new one should probably be fired, studied, and kept in a zoo. It’s clear they looked up “hack squat” in a search bar and bought the cheapest one they could find. Considering I pay around 70 a month for a membership, I’d prefer access to somewhat halfway decent equipment

Fantastic experience: I love working out at the Weight Club! The group fitness staff are great and the community you can build there is encouraging. There are a ton of group fitness classes, a track, different weightlifting options and a sauna for after your workout!

Fantastic experience: Lots of equipment! While traveling, I was worried about finding a powerlifting gym (squat racks, benches, and deadlift platforms), but this place is awesome!! It has $10 fee per day. Totally worth it, if you're into powerlifting.

Fantastic experience: The place is a little old, but there's a ton of equipment to get a workout in. Probably the best place to workout in Blacksburg.

Fantastic experience: Good environment to focus on working out

Positive experience: This is a great gym with plenty of equipment and features. My biggest complaint is that the hours are very inconvenient, especially on the weekends.

Fantastic experience: Very kind / caring staff

Positive experience: Great place and large enough to deal with the myriad of members

Fantastic experience: It's a great place for those who are experienced and just beginning say welcome you very politely and courteously I would recommend it to anyone to very clean environment and there is no judgment that I have found I really enjoyed it the score and it's very affordable

Fantastic experience: 10/10! Great machines and wonderful staff!

Fantastic experience: Great classes and instructors!

Negative experience: Great gym but it’s DISGUSTING. Fantastic equipment selection but the showers/locker rooms are moldy and covered in those drain flies. Exercise mats (5 of them) are peeling and ripped. Most of the pads on equipment are ripped with exposed foam. Crazy to pay so much per month and see it go no where for improvements. The staff is incredibly nice and they have the best equipment selection in the area. Sauna is great! I can’t stress enough how DIRTY this gym is

Fantastic experience: Many equipments

Fantastic experience: Love this place and all the staff

Fantastic experience: I like that the group exercise classes are included in the regular membership fee. Student discount is also nice.

Fantastic experience: Great facilities for weight lifting and a generous class schedule that is free to members. I have enjoyed all the different fitness classes I’ve gone to as well as had many good workouts at this gym. Staff is always friendly and helpful.

Fantastic experience: Great gym and amazing staff

Fantastic experience: This is a nice gym with friendly staff. Most importantly for me personally, the daycare is wonderful. They try to make the time enriching for the kids and my toddler loves going. There’s a regular group of kids age 1-3 during open hours and they have become good friends. The culture is safe and people seem to know what they’re doing but it’s not intimidating which is a nice combination.

Fantastic experience: We love BHF!!! The staff are just like family to us. We are super blessed to have this gym in our neighborhood!!!

Fantastic experience: Absolutely amazing facility, they have everything you'll need to get your body back into shape. Everyone is there to put in work and it makes for a great atmosphere.

Positive experience: Place is great except for the kid who hoarded the kg plates, 8 year USAPL member, 5x state champ, regional champ, national champ...get a clue.

Fantastic experience: I had a membership at the weight club for the last three years and I loved every second of it. I will miss it very much now that I have left Blacksburg!

Fantastic experience: I like working with Jon Booth

Positive experience: I love the gym, however, their hours are very inconvenient and they are super busy around 6:00-8:00PM on weekdays. Unfortunately that’s the only time I’m able to go. The weight club used to be open later into the night before covid and I didn’t have to worry about it being crowded.

Fantastic experience: Love being a member here! Lots of space, equipment, weights and class options! The staff are friendly and helpful and there are so many of the same members that you see on a daily basis!

Fantastic experience: Good gym with a lot of equipment. Friendly staff!

Fantastic experience: Best gym in the NRV! Clean, tons of machines, amazing classes with fantastic compassionate trainers.

Fantastic experience: Can't say enough good things about the Weight Club! And these days, the careful steps they're taking to keep us all safe gives us confidence to come workout. As always, thanks so much, Weight Club!!

Fantastic experience: It will not happen if you do not show up.......

Fantastic experience: Staff is friendly, helpful and just the best. Equipment is nice and always in good condition. A vast variety of equipment to fulfill any and all of your workout needs. Bathrooms are clean which is even better. There response to and implantation of Covid countermeasures is brilliant and despite missing the sauna I wouldn’t have it any other way.

Positive experience: Good facility with versatile weight lifting equipment. The lighting could improve but other than that, fulfills my gym needs.

Fantastic experience: I live local in the area. It is by far the best gym I have been to. I have been a member since 2019 and I have remained faithful during the pandemic. They have a track upstairs for walking or running, free weights up to like 200 lbs, deadlift and squat bars. They have multiple squat racks and several bench press areas. They also have a towel membership that you can pay yearly to get a towel everyday. The locker room has several showers and a sauna. They have discounts for students as well. It is all you will ever need in a gym.

Fantastic experience: Great gym. Has daycare for my wife and I to work out together. Also has lots of equipment and great services provided at a reasonable rate

Fantastic experience: A good gym, especially for students and 3+ families (considerable discounts). Crowd is pretty good, they'll let you keep to yourself and usually have decent gym etiquette. But most people are approachable if you need a spot or someone to record you. They've got a great variety of machines and free weight equipment. Even at peak times, I've rarely had to wait for a piece of equipment. I would suggest switching over some of the bench press stations to squat racks, since I don't think I've ever seen even half of those benches occupied.

Positive experience: It's not bad. Here's why. 2 Deadlift platforms, 3 squats racks, 2 press racks, a Smith, leg press, 2 hack squat and 2 calve machines. Rest is various machines, dumbells, cables, or cardio Pros: -Good variety of equipment, although they could use more racks for the cable machine bars it's always a mess, expect to hunt around for the bar you want. -Prices are good if you are a student or a family of 3+ -Typically not as crowded as campus gym so a nice alternative for students(Can save a lot of money by buying a membership here, forgoing a parking pass, not getting a meal plan and cooking at home, $1000 a semester easily Cons: -One of the cable machines is perpetually out of order. They'll take weeks to fix one just for another to break and then they wait weeks again. -Staff is alright. People seem to have a problem with management, I've never met them. The front desk staff generally are ok. Older employees tend to be nicer. Some of the younger ones are ego heads. Overall I would recommend this if: You are a student or a family of 3+. I would not recommend this gym if: You're not a student and buying as an individual. Very expensive. Have some kids and then come back. I do not think the quality justifies the price for the individual non student.

Fantastic experience: Enjoyed 5:30 am spin class with my daughter.

Fantastic experience: Love the gym and I have been going here since freshman year. Staff is nice and Jon is a great trainer and would recommend him to anyone. I would def suggest going if you're looking for a gym(its pretty cheap for college students). They don't get mad about dropping weights or chalk and you can always find a free squat rack/bench.

Positive experience: It's a gym with the equipment for my needs. All in all I like it, but it's sweltering in the summer. The circulation isn't particularly good.

Negative experience: Staff is very bad. Equipment is broke. Management does not care.

Fantastic experience: I've been coming here for around 6 moths now and I love it. One of my complaints would be that even with a student discount, it's costly. BUT it with the membership includes access to all of their classes and there is quite the variety. Would definitely recommend to anyone "on the fence" about whether or not they should join.

Negative experience: they are having a renovation right now, the smell is kindda harsh... Plus, they dont have a ventilation system like vt and anytime do, so the smell stays.

Fantastic experience: I have trained in extravagant fitness centers in various states in my lifetime. I have also trained in rugged hard-core weight rooms all over the United States. This fitness center fits like a glove! I am becoming more and more comfortable here. I believe it has all I need. I am happy with the variety of staff abilities and educational backgrounds! I am impressed with the classes and in general attitude and mannerisms of the staff! You can train hard-core here!!!

Positive experience: They recently renovated the locker rooms which are much improved! My biggest complaint is a lot of the members don't take very good care of the equipment or the facility. Lots of weights left around or thrown to the ground. It's common to see broken or damaged equipment.

Fantastic experience: Best in BBurg.

Fantastic experience: Clean and organized. Many different machines and free weight exercises available.

Fantastic experience: An amazing gym

Fantastic experience: Good gym. The equipment is well kept and they have a good variety of machines and free weights. Great trainers.

Fantastic experience: Best gym in Blacksburg for families. No contest. The gym staff are friendly and helpful. The equipment selection is massive. There is an indoor running track on the second floor. Tons of classes available. My wife loved the Zumba and spinning classes. Saunas in the locker rooms. Everything is clean and organized. The best part, if you have children, is the on-site day care available! They will watch your younglings for an hour or two while you work out, and it's super easy to arrange. The cost is ridiculously small, something like $10 a month on top of your membership. This give provided is with our sanity and time to work out during the first years of raising our child. I miss this gym everyday (moved out of the area).

Fantastic experience: Lots of new equipment and always clean. Super friendly staff.
