FITNESS SF - Oakland

Fantastic experience: Dance classes are off the hook. So far Yismari, Momo, and Eric teachers are the bomb

Fantastic experience: Great place to workout. The facility is clean, equipment is well kept and the staff is super friendly.

Fantastic experience: Very nice gym overall in a nice location

Fantastic experience: Excellent. Has all the machines, & they replace & update them frequently. Classes are infrequent so the large room w/mirrors is usually available to do whatever you want, including use the otherwise super-expensive row machines. They also have tons of Hyperice percussion massagers for use.

Fantastic experience: Love this place!! Friendly staff, lots of machines. Clients are great too.

Fantastic experience: Great location fantastic staff

Fantastic experience: Cheap gym, with good selection of Olympic lifting stations. Very pleasant staff.

Fantastic experience: I came here on a Thursday morning just for a trial day and was very pleasantly surprised with my experience. The gym makes incredible use of its modest footprint, and in my opinion, does not feel cramped. There are plenty of free weights and machines to appeal to lifters of all levels. Free weights include two sets of dumbells up to 100s, kettlebells, three olmypic benches and several flat benches, two incline benches, two full cages/olympic platforms, and tons more. There is plenty of capacity at cardio machines, group fitness room, and stretching area. Locker rooms and showers are pleasantly upscale, clean, and well-stocked. The staff and patrons are kind and considerate. Bonus: massage guns! This gym is totally worth checking out. The only thing that worries me is how crowded it will get during peak hours. I'll just have to wait and see after I come a few more times as a member!

Fantastic experience: I really enjoy this gym. Staff is friendly and they have a lot of equipment so you usually get what you are looking for. Granted I go here mid-day so not sure how it is at night. But I recommend coming here if you are looking for a gym in the area.

Fantastic experience: great gym snd gets the job done

Positive experience: Bit on the smaller side, equipment is a bit cramped and a bit older but staff is nice and they've got some added stuff I haven't seen from the major gyms like massage guns. Overall, would recommend. Just a bit cramped

Fantastic experience: I really like this location, staff is nice, a lot of different machines to choose from and not bad for the price. They also have extra spray bottles for guests to use to wipe down the machines.

Fantastic experience: I do squats and deadlifts here with my training partner every Sunday morning. the platforms are great and the crowd is cool. nice cafe right next door with a view of Lake Merritt. all around a great gym with a good vibe

Fantastic experience: Solid gym

Fantastic experience: Perfect local gym. Helpful and welcoming staff. Friendly members. Enough options so I don't have to wait for anything.

Fantastic experience: Great gym never crowded friendly people who work out there

Fantastic experience: The beast works in the gym and this gym is special for me I love it

Fantastic experience: Nice fun great equipment

Fantastic experience: Clean and never feels over crowded.

Fantastic experience: So glad they are open again and making everything safe for everyone.

Fantastic experience: This is a good gym in an awesome location. The gym has all of the equipment any type of fitness customer might want. They are doing an excellent job attempting to address covid-19 by limiting gym access and keeping the place clean like a science lab.

Fantastic experience: Relaxed atmosphere. Great classes, especially boot camp

Fantastic experience: Great place to work out, and Renew yourself, and physical fitness next to the beautiful lake Merritt

Fantastic experience: Great place to work out. I've been to plenty other gyms and the staff at Fitness Sf prides it's self on having a clean environment. Everyone is friendly and helpful.

Fantastic experience: The best gym in Oakland. Clean and plenty of equipment to get a great workout but the fat manager dumber than a box of rocks

Fantastic experience: One of my favorite places to workout. This gym has updated equipment, knowledgeable trainers and super personable front door staff.

Fantastic experience: Was wondering how much a membership there cost?

Fantastic experience: Good gym. Spots to do Deadlift and Squats!

Fantastic experience: Emily and the staff are great! She made me feel confortable made sure my needs and wants as a member were met. Gym is gorgeous, clean and a lot of toys to play with.

Fantastic experience: Staff is friendly and great. The group x classes have great instructors and they are almost always full! The gym can get a little packed from 5-7pm but even then, I don't ever see myself waiting for a machine or having nothing to do. Other members are courteous and kind. I signed up for a membership under a special promotion and have absolutely no complaints! It's located a little less than a mile from home so I just run there and count that as a warm up.

Fantastic experience: A no fuss fitness facility with friendly staff that offers every machine etc. you could want. If you're into something special like cross fit then this isn't the place for you. Be sure to come early as it gets warm inside and bring your own towel for the locker room. Parking is often available in the library parking lot across the street or paid meter parking.

Fantastic experience: The best gym I've ever been a member at... and I've been a member at 12 other gyms over the past 18 years. It's the best gym not because of the facility or equipment (which is good), but because of the people that go here. This is the only gym that I can say is a true 'community' of people and where jut about everyone is putting in work. Before you roll your eyes at that statement, let me explain: Everyone is considerate and even supportive of eachother. Whether you're a 60 year old woman bench pressing or a muscled mutant on the elliptical, everyone is supportive of eachother. I have never seen such a variety of people interact, coexist, and even socialize in the same weight room. The women are not afraid to get on the free weights, and the the biggest guys don't look down on the first-timers. I can tell people are here to actually train and improve themselves. That's motivating. Best of all - no crossfit. The staff I've interacted with is great, and they have sports drinks / protein shakes at the front if you need one. Price is fair. Cons: Some of the leg equiment needs updating, and they need a few more safety clips for the barbells. I am fortunate to live only a block away, but if you're looking for parking, just go up the hill on MacArthur.

Fantastic experience: The Oakland facility is friendly and helpful

Fantastic experience: This is my Favorite gym! Why? Because it's no-nonsense, convenient and affordable! I feel fortunate to live close by. There’s even made an app if you want more training and it's included with my membership-I couldn't be happier. The staff is friendly, not pushy. The trainers are legit depending on the level you want and need. I learned some great strengthening exercises from personal trainer, Sam Berenson, that have really helped improve my posture (*combined with Physical Therapy at home exercises for my old Left Shoulder Injury). Sam is really professional & down to earth. My coordination with exercise classes may be a bit lacking (I'll start getting my Rights & Lefts confused), but I did attend a super Group X Core Strengthening class with Liam and it was fun & tough. Liam also has good taste in tunes (if you're old like me you might like it). I don't have all gyms access, but if you want it they can make it happen for you an with some killer locations in SF - Embarcadero or behind Twitter (both looked Awesome to me) + Many Others! Checked it out, as there are many fitness options to choose from!

Fantastic experience: Great gym!

Fantastic experience: Good place to weigh train

Fantastic experience: Just came from the Gym I have been working out in this Gym since it was Gold Gym. Clean and very up to date. They have classes that you can attend with out signing in.

Fantastic experience: They give more promo upon my membership and the place was so accessible...

Fantastic experience: The staff is very professional and helpful. The equipment is clean and the classes are great. You can't beat the location, but parking can be a bit difficult if you don't live in the area.

Fantastic experience: One of the best gyms I've been to. Great people, good machines, never really have to wait for stuff.

Fantastic experience: Great gym! Good selection of machines and free weights, including barbell racks. Not too busy!
