Summit Strong

Fantastic experience: Best new gym in Denver. They have classes available for everything. The equipment is brand new and the trainers are amazing to work with.

Fantastic experience: Summit has all equipment needed for a great workout. The personal trainers offer their unique workout plans and there is a great vibe between members and trainers. The energy is not intimidating and I always feel motivated to workout just a little harder. Been a member for years!

Fantastic experience: Best gym in Denver! Been going here since 2019. Excellent equipment. Friendly staff. Never too crowded. Excellent for people with limited time, interested in staying in shape and reaching their work out goals.

Fantastic experience: By far my favorite gym…..everyone is so friendly and helpful with all your fitness goals and needs.

Fantastic experience: Well equipped, clean gym with amazing staff and service. Absolutely love training here!

Fantastic experience: Love the vibe of this gym. Highly recommend.

Fantastic experience: I got lost. Stopped by there to find a safe place to get Uber, since I am unfamiliar with the area. The guys there are incredibly nice. One young man helped me with my phone--thank you young man (sitting at the protein bar) for noticing that I needed assistance. I deeply appreciated your kindness! You made my day so much better! If we lived close by, we would definitely workout there--such a great gym vibe! Again, thank you for your help today!!!

Fantastic experience: I've been going here for 2 years now, before they were Summit. I've always appreciated the staff, the equipment, and the clientele, but I have to shout out William today for helping me out when I was being followed by a man for over a mile. I knew that Summit has always been a safe, happy place for me, and he proved it by handling it professionally and quickly when the man came in after me. Seriously, I'm very grateful for this. Also, thank you for letting me steal a slice of pizza. I respect the jalapeño and pepperoni game.

Fantastic experience: I like Summit Strong. I'm so lucky to meet with personal trainer Dylan. He is smart, passionate, friendly. My body is already starting to feel stronger after the first month! I have more energy, I sleep better, and I feel better about myself. I highly recommended Dylan to anyone who wants to be stronger and healthy!

Positive experience: I love this gym for two reasons- 1. The variety of equipment is great, there is just amazing amount of squat racks, dumbbells and everything else. 2. The location of the gym is quite central, its pretty close to where I live. What I do not like about this gym is the staff behavior, they are disrespectful to the point that they do no care if someone is working out on the treadmill, they will pull out the plug (if they are doing maintenance work) even if it can cause an accident. A lot of people I have seen here have mentioned about the staff behavior and I attest its true.Summit could clearly improve their brand by having a better trained staff. I am someone who goes to the gym to just workout and its important for me that the workout space has a positive energy or at the least the staff is not disrespectful.

Positive experience: I'll start with the positive things about summit strong. 1. They have basically all the equipment you could ever want. Plenty of squat racks, every type of bar you can think of, plenty of kettlebells, and the dumbbells are all in good condition. 2. The facility is generally well kept Now for the things that annoy me about summit strong and make me question if the high membership price is worth it: 1. The front desk staff is the most unwelcoming staff out of any gym I've ever been to. I've worked out at summit for close to a year and have been told hello maybe 8 times. I'm convinced that I could cancel my membership and continue going while walking straight past the front desk and would not be questioned about not scanning in for months. 2. A majority of the trainers are completely inconsiderate of other members space. It's very frequent that I feel pushed out of stations by trainers or that they do not care about getting in members way. A prime example of this would be trainers taking up an unnecessary amount of space on the turf area. I'll be doing walking lunges the length of the turf and trainers will set their client up in the dead center of the turf and block my way. They could easily set up towards the end or off to the side but instead it seems that they don't care and will make me awkwardly work around them. I know I'm not the only member that feels this way. I have multiple friends who workout here and we all feel that the trainers unnecessarily prioritize their clients over general members. For as high of a membership price that summit has I would expect staff to be trained to be more welcoming and considerate.

Fantastic experience: This Gym is without a doubt the best gym in Denver. Since the takeover in ownership and the rebranding I can honestly say I am excited to go to the gym. Amazing vibe. Knowledgeable trainers and Squat racks for days! If you haven't visited this gym in the last few months you are missing out.

Fantastic experience: Came upon this gym my first week moving to Denver and knew I found a gem! The owner will go out of his way to introduce himself to you and ask how you are. The staff try to learn your name and make you feel welcomed. They’re strict about covid which makes me feel safe! Don’t be intimidated by the garage set up and beefy guys. Everyone is friendly! Best gym in Colorado!!!!!

Fantastic experience: Positive: Communication , Quality I've been at Vital for almost 3 years now - love this gym and the staff. I enjoy the boot camp classes with Marc and great equipment for when I'm working out on my own. One of the best locally owned gyms I've been a part of!

Fantastic experience: Very friendly and knowledgeable staff. Best gym I’ve been to in Denver. All the members are very fitness driven and want to better themselves which is a very big motivator. Have taken all the proper precautions during Covid. Very clean and safe.

Fantastic experience: Positive: Professionalism , Quality I love this gym! The staff is very professional and friendly. If you’re looking for a gym where you can lift and not feel judged or uncomfortable this is the gym for you! It’s very clean and has everything you need. If you need a trainer, Aaron Fountain is amazing and very professional! He put me back together after ACL surgery!

Fantastic experience: Great spot. Garage gym vibe with great customer service and amenities. Clean, plentiful equipment, excellent staff. 10/10 would recommend.

Fantastic experience: I love the old school pumping iron feel this place generates! Everyone there is in really great shape and the anxiety was low here with all the people. They have rings available for chins and pulls. Had one of my favorite workouts ever here last week. It's an expensive membership but you get what you pay for. Always pay your dues and you will have an incredible Mind, Body and Spirit ️‍♂️️‍♀️

Fantastic experience: I just enjoy working out at this gym. I've been a client with them for nearly a year now. I liked the location and the facilities in this gym. The coaches were really friendly. Here, I can perform good routines properly.

Fantastic experience: Great facility. Lots of power racks.

Fantastic experience: Positive: Communication , Professionalism , Quality Great gym. I used it for a one week pass while in town.

Fantastic experience: Positive: Communication , Professionalism , Quality Absolutely LOVE THIS GYM! Such good vibes! And the personal training is the best I’ve ever received. Also, very clean gym. Definitely recommend!

Fantastic experience: VSF is one of the best gyms out there with unparalleled trainers. I've been working with Aaron for the past year and have seen massive gains and changes to my body. He uses focus on what works instead of what is the trend. This gym has a great lay out with enough equipment that you're never waiting around, if for some reason you are, the staff and members are all super cool about letting you work in. Cannot recommend enough. Go sign up and request Aaron as your trainer!

Fantastic experience: Positive: Communication , Professionalism , Quality Gym gives me everything I am looking for in a facility, clean, friendly atmosphere, and the staff treats you like FAMILY.

Fantastic experience: I have been training with Jenn Lopez for almost two years and she is an amazing trainer and person. With Vital, you get the whole package. They care about you and want you to succeed and will push you past your comfort zone. They treat you like family and truly care about the success and well being of their clients. I would highly suggest booking a session with Jenn and checking the gym out! It will change your life.

Fantastic experience: Best gym in denver. Going on 2 years since I started training here. Eric's cool AF. People there aren't very social but are still respectful. The equipment is extraordinary, the environment is very motivating and all for a fair price.

Fantastic experience: Well educated and friendly staff, great location and unique environment a truly great place to work out. You can’t argue with the results you will receive.

Fantastic experience: Such a great place to get fit! I highly recommend it.

Fantastic experience: This is hands down the best gym I’ve ever been to. We (my partner and I) love the culture, atmosphere and friendly employees/owners. We also feel like we’ve never been to a cleaner gym. I also feel incredibly motivated when arriving; people go here to work out, not to socialize. I especially appreciate how seriously they are handling their gym during the COVID pandemic. I feel very safe coming here, knowing that every single person is screened for temperature when they arrive. Everyone is required to wear masks at all times. There is an abundance of sanitation supplies for cleaning equipment. There is plenty of space to work out, and with the garage bay doors open, there’s plenty of airflow. Hand sanitizer is provided, and encouraged. And all members are educated about expectations when they are in doubt, or make mistakes. I feel so fortunate to have a gym to go to during these times, and above all, to feel safe while working out.

Fantastic experience: Best gym in Denver

Fantastic experience: This is my home gym. The owners are amazing. The equipment has been updated and there is so much you can do for strength and conditioning as well as body building. I train with Jenn Lopez and her work outs have always helped me meet my fitness goals

Fantastic experience: Came into town for a week and snagged a groupon online for the week. Awesome facility with a ton of equipment, especially free weights with a ton of squat racks. Pretty busy facility but never felt like I was fighting over equipment and the staff was incredibly friendly. Showers were clean as well, with blow dryers provided. The trainers also seemed really invested in their clients from what I saw

Fantastic experience: Great staff. Plenty of equipment, great layout for both weightlifting and crossfit style workouts, and good kickboxing program

Fantastic experience: I initially posted this as a 1 star review, but was so impressed by how this business handled this issue after the fact that I decided to change it to reflect the situation. Below is the original review and account. Roughly 30 minutes after I posted this review, I received a voicemail from the general manager in question, in which he apologized for coming off as rude, and offered me a free week-long trial period at the gym (something they aren't currently offering because of COVID, so this is an exception). He explained that he hoped this would give me an opportunity to have a better experience at the gym. When I returned the next day for my second trial class, another manager, Geni, was consistently very kind and helpful to me. After my class she not only set me up with my free week trial, but she apologized to me personally and told me that she had spoken to the manager I had the initial interaction with concerning the issue. She also said that the owners of the gym were aware of the situation and that they had quickly taken steps behind the scenes to address this issue within their staff to prevent this scenario from happening again in the future. She expressed that she was happy to help me in any way she could to improve my experience there. While this is a very brief synopsis of what was a longer and more thorough conversation, I want to emphasize that I felt it was a genuine and sincere interaction and I left feeling heard and cared about. This gym has earned back my respected, and they've shown me that they're willing to go the extra mile to resolve issues - something that can be rare and honestly surprised me. Also, Mark's strike class was awesome. His energy made me feel super welcome and better about my experience even before my conversation with Geni. ORIGINAL REVIEW IN PHOTO (due to character limit)

Fantastic experience: I would recommend this gym over any other for multiple reasons. It is very clean, there are clean supplies around the gym, and the staff will walk around multiple times during the day cleaning off equipment. The trainers are all highly qualified and knowledgeable. Each trainer looks like the perfect picture of health. The people here are all extremely nice and helpful. I haven’t tried out the personal training sessions, but from what everyone says, they are tough and worth every dollar. I have seen a lot of results from people, and yes training here will get you to where you want to be physically.

Fantastic experience: This gym have the best equipment in the area and wonderful staff, It's really easy to pick myself up and go train here.

Fantastic experience: I have been working with Jenn Lopez for six weeks now, I see her twice a week. I already feel incredible and see progress in my body and how strong I am getting. She is working directly towards my goals but also provides much needed mental support anytime I need it! And she got me to finally QUIT smoking. Jenn has changed my life, this has become a lifestyle for me and this gym is so friendly and welcoming!

Fantastic experience: The gym is awesome and has all the essentials, even for powerlifting (chalk, multiple squat racks, barbells, etc.). Mark was super nice and very hospitable. Great experience all around! I highly recommend

Fantastic experience: SEVEN squat racks. Incredible. Vital has a great atmosphere, and I love lifting here. Marc, Joann, and Jeni are friendly and awesome.

Fantastic experience: I really like Jenn the trainer here! I could tell she really just wanted to help me make the best decision for me and, I appreciate that!

Fantastic experience: I started going here because I lived downtown and it was convenient, I stayed here after I moved to the highlands area because this is the best gym by a long shot. Eric, up at the front, took the time to get to know me, remembers and greets me when I arrive and leave. I've never had issues with getting on any machine or rack that I wanted, everyone there is friendly but busy working hard. There have been several instances where I've been impressed by the staff and the facilities are 10/10. Love this gym and it's employees.

Fantastic experience: Was visiting for a month and found a $40 groupon. The staff was extremely helpful and the gym itself is in great shape. I Highly recommend it to everyone

Fantastic experience: I just love this place! Amazing gym, with everything that I need for a great workout. Staff is friendly, the place is pretty clean and always organized (which optimizes my workout routine). Training with Todd gave me incredible results already on the first month. He’s the best trainer that I’ve ever had, focusing on my individual goals and helping me to get where I want to be. Before having Todd as my trainer, I never thought it would be possible to workout at the same time as my husband (that is his client as well, but way stronger than I’m and with different goals). Well, Todd made it possible and now I’m not only having an awesome workout, but being able to spend some quality time with my husband in the mornings, before going to work. Thank you Todd!!!

Fantastic experience: Love this gym. I left there a couple months ago because I moved across town, but ended up going back and dealing with the extra commute time. Totally worth it. Lots of squat racks, specialty bars (safety squat bar, football bar, etc), full set of kettlebells, oly plates, tires, prowler, cables, etc. If you want to lift it, they probably have it. Perfect gym for strength training, whether novice or advanced. I mostly work out in the mornings and the members that are training then are pretty serious. And, the gym is never so crowded that you are waiting for a squat rack (it helps that they have 5) or can’t do a superset. I have gone there at night as well and that is a good group too (with the occasion person that walks around talking on their cell phone, but what are you going to do). Overall, I generally appreciate the ease of training at Vital. And they provide towels. Love that.

Fantastic experience: Amazing facility, amazing staff and a great location!

Fantastic experience: Great Gym! Has everything I need for my training.

Fantastic experience: I love this gym. I've been a member now for about 3 years. The personal trainers are great. But I suggest you don't go if you're trying to look cute or want to flirt because this is a no excuse, work hard-kick ass gym that will make you sweat.

Fantastic experience: Excellent gym with plenty of equipment, squat racks, free weights, cardio machines, turf, and MMA/yoga area with mats.

Fantastic experience: Moved close by and tried all the surrounding gyms before joining Vital. Over the years I've been in many gyms but none quite like this. It's one of the most functional and efficient spaces for working out. They have everything for any type of workout and the place is kept super organized and clean. Never seen a gym so well maintained. They take pride in their product. The staff is awesome, especially Ben. Amazing vibe with lots of smiling faces. The only downside is the hours on Saturday and Sunday. They close fairly early, but I guess working out earlier in the day wouldn't be such a bad idea anyway.

Fantastic experience: I have been doing personal training with Jen Lopez at Vital. She is knowledgable and well versed in creating a well rounded workout. She pays close attention to form and posture. She challenges me to push myself to do my personal best. I have made huge strides in my level of health and fitness and have see changes in my physique. She is fun encouraging and most of all motivating. She really mixes it up each time and i look forward to my workouts.

Fantastic experience: Started working out here a little over a year ago; Eric and staff are always friendly, helpful, and willing to answer questions you have. Fellow swoldiers (aka other gym members) are nearly all the same way as well, friendly people who are willing to lend a spot or a pointer whenever needed. I think my favorite part of the Vital experience would be the variety of classes offered with membership; personal fan of the kickboxing class led by Clearance Thatch who is one of the best human beings I've come into contact with. Great value when you consider everything available to members, but you've got to stay diligent to truly get your money's worth.

Fantastic experience: Dare I say, this is the best gym in Denver. Vital Strength and Fitness is filled with trainers and clients that are so motivating. The equipment is awesome and there are FOUR squat/power racks. There is an incredible turf area with sand bags/ sleds/ kettle bells/etc. there’s also a boxing area. I’m no boxer but watching the trainers work with clients makes me want to try. Such an amazing space!

Fantastic experience: Vital is the first and last gym I worked out at in Denver. Vinnie, a super nice and welcoming guy, runs a great gym for those of you looking for the equipment and atmosphere necessary for real results. I'm moving to Hawaii in a week but, if I was not, Vinnie, Julius, and Eric would be the team I would chose as my accountability group. A very powerful team with the gift of driving you to push yourself beyond what you thought were your limits. 10/10 in every aspect.

Fantastic experience: When you walk in this gym you can tell immediately that this is not your average gym. Everyone is here to achieve their goals and take their fitness seriously. The trainers are amazing and design programs for their clients you won't see anywhere else. A true results center.
