Before I joined City Fitness, I was constantly switching gyms and never found one that I really loved. But this gym is different - I actually enjoy going there.

I've met a lot of great people who have become my friends for life. The motivation that the coaches and instructors give is unrivaled.

is here This gym is pretty good and not too crowded. I arrived around 10pm and there were only 2 other people there, so I had the place to myself for my entire workout. I left around midnight and the crowd had increased by 5 or 6 people. Everything you need for a successful workout is available here.

Our complimentary day pass allows you to use any of our facilities for free for a day. You can take a yoga class, relax with a Hydromassage, or go straight to the free weights; it's up to you.

Fantastic experience: I've been a member at City Fitness' East Market location for over a year and I'm really happy with my experience. It's never too crowded, management is responsive, staff are friendly. Overall, a really great experience.

James Balaguer 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Started group fitness, to unwind my "lockdown lifestyle". So far it has exceeded my expectations, people come ready to work and the trainers are competent, plus noticing the DEI touches ... not a gymbro atmosphere at all

Lawrence Sutton 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: A great gym. Huge space and tons of equipment. Staff is very helpful.

Greg Swenson 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: Has pretty much everything you could want in a gym - classes, machines, ton of free weights. When stuff breaks it gets fixed quickly. It does get busy the couple hours after work, but what gym doesn’t.

Nicholas Saidel 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: I am a gym addict and this place has it all. Also, the front desk and manager are super helpful and ready to assist whenever you have an issue. Clean, reliable, and positive atmosphere. Yay City Fitness!

Fantastic experience: I been a member for almost 3 years? I use to breath and live here pre covid. Its got a smoothie bar and study areas as well! This was the newer city fitness gym in Philadelphia until recently their northerliberties location relocated. This East market one is my favorite because it's massive and has everything for a city gym. 2nd floor mezzidine woth all the cardio machines for a cardio junkie like me. Sauna, steam room, towels, dance studio, workout studios for people interested in taking classes or to hide away from a crowd to do their own thing. The staff are all very welcoming and so helpful. Definitely the best gym in philly so far. It is very pricy but it also means the people here are all very devoted and from the area. Love it here!

Fantastic experience: Joining this location was the best decision I've made. From the staff to the members and the local businesses. This gym represents how a great a city Philadelphia is. I've had a blast working out here

Gary McNeil 1 year ago

Fantastic experience: It's perfect in my experience, I've been going there 2-3 times a week for six weeks, and I think the facility (the facility itself, the equipment, and the cleanliness) the staff, the Thrive program, and the location are all much better than any of the other ten or so gyms I have belonged to over the years.

Positive experience: The East Market location is a clean and expansive gym, that adequately meets the needs of the surrounding community. Sitting on the north end of the gayborhood, it is appropriately welcoming to LGBTQ+ folks. There are diverse offerings, from the usual weights and machines to yoga, spinning, etc. They do try to push new members into the Thrive program, which is expensive and geared more toward folks who need help getting active. Aside from that, and occasionally having to wait for an open shower stall or particular machine, it’s a good place to work out ????????

Bridget Siebold 1 year ago

Positive experience: City fitness is great, clean and the people are nice. The only reason it’s not a 5 stars is because of my billing and membership. Be careful and watch billing when you sign up! 5 billing cycles after I signed up I was stopped while going into the gym to deal with my billing issue. The person who was dealing with my membership did not do her job and messed up my billing information, when I messaged her about it she never responded. This is frustrating since when I had these conversations with her and she proceeded to not do her job or follow up with our conversation. These redundant conversations were frustrating and easily avoidable. It cut into my workout time twice and I was never compensated for the time they wasted only a “sorry”. I was disappointed by how they handled their own mistake but other than that the gym is clean and kept up well.

Fantastic experience: Great gym - not too expensive at all. Equipment selection is pretty good. In the early mornings you never have to wait for anything. In the afternoons there can sometimes be a wait, but it's not bad. People actually rack their weights which is a huge plus. Clean locker rooms usually.

Fantastic experience: Positive: Communication , Professionalism , Quality I just want to say CF has really done an amazing job of addressing all my concerns! CF is the best gym in Philadelphia by far! Richard the manager here is particularly helpful. And they have really done covid right! Vaccines required for entry. No mask required. Thank you!

Fantastic experience: Great gym, lots of equipment, clean, great staff, and finally back to the pre-covid shutdown hours so I can go after my 3-11 shifts without shorting my workout and rushing in before work for a quick bit of cardio. I just wish they would be open until 1am Monday to Friday, but at least Monday through Thursday is better than nothing. I pay for their cheap competitor around the corner for Friday only and their competitor's ellipticals bother my knees after a mile, where as City Fitness, I can be on their ellipticals for 9 miles without issue, and would love to only have one gym. If you do not need an indoor pool and jacuzzi then this is definitely the best gym since 12th Street Gym closed.

Fantastic experience: Great gym. Clean with lots of equipment that you expect and some you don’t. Two Olympic power lifting platforms and lots of other quick squat racks. Cool stretching area. Good selection of food and drinks. Great place!

Fantastic experience: I took a wefit class with Sherri Pierro and she was amazing!!!! I was nervous going into it but she is so bubbly and encouraging that I felt super comfortable. I don’t know how she manages to teach, work out along with the class, AND take the time to help out individually, but she does it with finesse! Can’t wait to take another one of her classes.

Fantastic experience: City Fitness East Market has done an incredible job keeping the gym sanitized and safe during the pandemic. Everyone is very diligent about wearing masks and the equipment is wiped down by both members and gym staff very regularly. Guests are respectful of the dedicated timeslots and City Fitness has made it really easy to schedule your session on the app. It's great to feel so comfortable and confident working out at the gym even during a pandemic. And it's definitely one of Philly's best gyms in general -- very well-kept equipment, friendly people, a beautiful open volume of space to work out in, and plenty of natural daylight.

Jillian Krause 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: Very high quality facility, very clean and lots of space. Has all the equipment you need and more. Definitely pricey, but you get what you pay for. Smoothie bar is great for after a workout!

Batman Fitness and Strength 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I was in Philly for a few days and tried out this gym and was very pleased! Staff were very friendly and welcoming. Hours for the gym are really nice. The facility is huge and has a bunch of quality, up to date equipment. They have a queenax, turfed area, two Olympic lifting platforms and a nice mix of dumbbells and machines. The only thing they could have more of are squat racks. They only have a few of those. Overall, recommend for anyone looking to get a good workout in.

Fantastic experience: Finally the gym is open, early pass holders have been waiting for just about six months. Through all of that the company did communicate very well on the status of the facility, which is great. We got in on the founders rate so we were able to enjoy various studios around the city which are all unique. It’s very affordable, major metropolitan areas are known to have sky rocketing gym prices which is not good as all people won’t get the same access. I dropped my membership from a niche studio and glad I made the transition, I get more options and classes for a fraction of the price. All the staff are pleasant, greet you upon entering and helpful. When you’re spending money you don’t want to be treated any old kind of way. So far so good during the soft opening, can’t wait for the steam room and sauna to be setup. *Update Very appreciative of the cleaning staff. Gyms can be pretty disgusting given the activity, the staff keep the place clean and routinely clean on a consistent basis. Went to another location, the bathrooms weren’t clean and the gym itself was very stuffy and smelly ...yuck.

Fantastic experience: This new gym has a lot to offer. The upper floor is the cardio floor, with a wide array of equipment including treadmills, ellipticals, bikes, stair steppers, and ergs. The lower floor includes the free weights, weight machines, and a functional fitness type area. The free weights offering is great. There are 4 squat racks, two of which are Eleiko racks with platforms that are great for power lifting and Olympic lifting. There are 8 bench presses, which is a nice change from most gyms where you're constantly having to wait for others to finish. Most dumbbells come in sets of 4 (i.e., 2 pairs of 40 lb dumbbells) which is nice if someone else is using the weight you are looking for. My only complaint would be with the functional fitness area. There's a lot available, including the great Queenax modular cage/rack that allows for a wide range of activities. However, it would be nice to have at least a few pieces of cardio equipment like an erg or assault bike in this area to allow for functional circuit training. If classes are your thing, there is a range of options with lots of programming. Add-on packages include small group personal training (Thrive) or partner-based circuit training (We/Fit). The locker rooms are a little cramped, but the lockers include built-in locks which is handy. The showers, sauna, and steam room are nice amenities as well. Overall, great gym for the price with comprehensive fitness offerings though it could use some improvement in the functional fitness area.

Fantastic experience: It's a great place to workout. It's also a great place to work. They take cleanliness very seriously.

Luis Padra 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: I love this location. All machines are new and facilities almost pristine. Patrons seem nice (been here only 2 weeks) and staff is super friendly. It is a bit more expensive than others in the same range (think Sweat) but definitely more upscale. Took a class (Thrive with Tiffany) and loved it. Had a sense of community I like. Sadly, it is extra and not budget friendly. I think it is worthy

Christopher gambrell 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: I love the gym. However I hate standing at the urinal and the house keeping lady walks in to collect the towels. I don’t understand a lady in a mans space when there are male house keeping present. It feels insulting to me. Other than that it’s a really really nice gym. I love it.

Ritchie Borja 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: I workout here a lot because (1) Tiffany is coaching for Thrive Fit which I believe she's the best because I can see my own real results time to time when I workout with her and she's the coach that I only trust and it's sad that she's leaving soon and (2) the gym is closer to my work.
