Fantastic experience: I love this place for many reasons. The first being the classes. I mean, for 40/mo or 30/month ea for a couple I can go to as many classes as I want per week. That right there is gold to me. Secondly, this isn't 24 hr fitness. And I mean that in a good way. Being inundation with meat heads does not happen at Scott. Neither does being stared at awkwardly. If you've gone to 24 you know exactly what I mean. The place doesn't get so packed that you have to take turns with anyone. I won't go anywhere else. What do you want from a machine? Because a newer one isn't going to make you look more awesome, neither is it going to build your muscle faster or do tricks. People that love Scott, they understand that concept. No, I don't feel un-safe. No there are no drive by's. That is just ridiculous.

Fantastic experience: If you’re looking for a solid, affordable, no frills gym, the GymKC is your spot. It has everything you need and has multiple locations. You can start and stop your monthly membership any time, no questions asked. I always come back to the GymKC even after trying some of the more “luxury” gyms in KC. The staff is helpful and friendly. Great place.

Fantastic experience: My main gym and it's always my place of escape... ❤️

Elissa Freberg 2 years ago

Fantastic experience: I’m in town for a month and was easily able to work with the staff on a short term plan for a very reasonable price ($35 plus tax). Also, no contract involved whereas other gyms can make canceling a huge hassle. The facilities are clean and well maintained and I’ve never had difficulty finding open stations. There is a dress code (very reasonable) so just be sure to check on their website for that info before going.

Jerry Lopez 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: 1st visit. Very clean, equipment for every level of fitness.

Lane Schmidt 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: Great gym, I love going late at night when it's only a few people. Has plenty of equipment for any workout you need.

Ryan Lovell 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: I see a lot of people complaining about the lighting but I love it. It's nice and mellow. It's quiet with no loud music playing and most other gym goers there either don't acknowledge you or are nice if they do. Way better than big box gyms blasting awful pop music and blinding you with florescent lights and judgemental stares. 10/10

Kelly Edelman 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: My first visit since they re-opened. It is super clean and I love the new machines!

Sherrita H. 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: I like this gym because it has everything I need. I enjoy the atmosphere, no one is being loud or flashy. They have plenty of workout equipment. I can't wait for the fitness classes to start back.

Rajanee Gardner 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: Love this gym. It's a great atmosphere and usually quiet. I like that I never have to wait for weights or cardio machines. Also a great price. Not too expensive.

Caden G 3 years ago

Fantastic experience: I've been a member for about 9 months now, and I still very much enjoy this place. The included boxing class is very inclusive to all skill levels and fitness levels, and is worth the price of admission on its own

Frances Stokes 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: Very nice place to work out space for meetings and other functions loved the location at swope park

Scott Cohen 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: The best thing they have done is to offer no commitment memberships. The hassle of terminating a membership has scared me from coming back. There no hassle joining and termination policy is great!

Ross 4 years ago

Fantastic experience: This has been my top choice KC area gym location for over a decade. The ladies running this establishment have provided amazing customer service since the start while maintaining a no contract, reasonable cost, 24 hour gym membership. The staff is always amazing. Over the years I’m yet to meet an unwelcoming staff member. And these guys usually stay with the gym for a long time. Love this place !! They have multiple locations with different equipment. Nice weight amounts. As long as you don’t expel any outrageous grunting it’s a pretty good place to gain some size. Some nice hammer strength machines at the uptown location. So it’s a good place to do upper body focus. I would recommend the west side location for legs as for some reason the squat racks seem to free up easier. All locations usually offer a variety of different classes free of charge (location specific). I would end this with an “if you like great prices and amazing service....bla..bla .... then this is the gym “ but in reality this gym really is too good to need a line that sounds like a sales pitch. Don’t do yourself a disservice by passing up this gym.

Vincet Ryder 5 years ago

Fantastic experience: Best gym I've ever gone to.. Great classes and very friendly atmosphere. I usually come around when there's no one or hardly anyone. The equipment here are great and updated. The staff here is really knowledgeable and helping. I am really impressed. Will recommend this gym to anyone.

Nick Finzer 5 years ago

Fantastic experience: The people who use this gym seem to be pretty cool for the most part, and they have a good supply of equipment. Bench press can be a little hard to get during busy hours, but outside of just before/after work hours, it's usually not too busy.

Lelon Jenkins 5 years ago

Fantastic experience: I really love this gym. 24hr access and location are the biggest draws for me. I also like the members here as well. The unfinished industrial space has strong character. Management is awesome and friendly. Straight forward. No fuss.

william sanders 5 years ago

Fantastic experience: A peaceful gym very friendly and member oriented I rather go here than planet fitness

Chris Foshee 5 years ago

Bryan Dorsey 5 years ago

Fantastic experience: Open 24 hours and typically not over crowded (in the mornings, evenings seem pretty busy)

Brian 5 years ago

Fantastic experience: This location is very clean and well kept up. There are no hidden fees or cancellation traps. This place is great for me !

Corbin LeGrand 5 years ago

Fantastic experience: One of the best gym options in the KC area. Would highly recommend to others in town. Great prices and no BS fees.

Tricia Rojo Bushnell 6 years ago

Fantastic experience: Always enough equipment, even if you have to glare at the guy doing curls in the squat rack.

Katie Young 6 years ago

Fantastic experience: I've left this gym (due to distance from my house) and come back twice because you just can't find the value and the transparency this gym offers anywhere else. While some of the equipment is outdated and a few more amenities would be nice, I have yet to find another location in KC that signs you up with consistent pricing and no contracts or hidden fees, and let's you cancel with 30 days' notice - in under 20 seconds. No proving that you've moved or begging necessary. The cardio equipment is plentiful. I never have to wait for a machine. And they really do have everything you absolutely need to get a well rounded workout in. Thanks, GymKC!

Lee Spears 6 years ago

Fantastic experience: This location is very clean a positive workout environment and open 24 hours and I enjoy the security that you need a hand print to go in and out you want to come to a place to work out 24 hours will you don't have to worry about stress drama or any violence my gym is where it's at hope to see you there

kk Williams 6 years ago

Fantastic experience: Nice range of equipment, wish the had more cable machines Great gym and the cheapest I've found so far

Ashley Raymond 7 years ago

Fantastic experience: If you're looking for a mega gym with posing mirrors, this isn't the place. I'm returning to weight training after years of being a sloth and couldn't be happier with GYMkc. They have enough cardio machines that I never have to wait. Equipment and free weights are clean and we'll maintained. As a whole, people are friendly. The 24 hour access in midtown is a major perk as well. Overall, very happy with theGYMkc!

Kyle FitzGerald 7 years ago

Fantastic experience: This is the best gym in KC and the best deal at half the price of the other options. I have been a member for over 7 years and the rates have never changed - there's no contract, it's month-to-month and no BS. They are all open 24 hours with handprint security. The machines are constantly being updated and they have everything you would want. The best part is the vibe: no meat heads, no idiots making a bunch of noise, low key, plenty of room and super nice staff. I could not be happier to support a local, woman owned business that sets the bar for gyms in the urban core. Oh and they have free classes!

Jon K 7 years ago

Fantastic experience: Best non-meathead gym in town!

Sara Naatz 7 years ago

Fantastic experience: I love this gym. It's super affordable, and even more so if you sign up with a significant other or buddy. No annual or sneaky fees to creep up on you. Plus the cost includes classes. This particular location is especially great for people like me who want a lot of floor space to work out. The atmosphere is very laid back. The staff is great and there are very few pretentious meatheads – more "quiet hipster working out in an NPR shirt" and less "jersey shore." The only downside is the wifi at this particular location is total trash. So if you're looking to watch Netflix on the treadmill, download your episodes in advance!

nsbdrum 7 years ago

Fantastic experience: Awesome gym. I'm glad we found it. Always feel comfortable working out here.

Chris Burnett 7 years ago

Fantastic experience: For the price and proximity, you can't beat it. Everything looks a little tired and worn out, but who cares when you're pushing "heavy" things around.

Daniel Snapp 7 years ago

Fantastic experience: Great location and cost of membership. Staff is great and they have some of the best trainers in town.

Tim 7 years ago

Fantastic experience: Best gym I've ever been a part of and it's cheaper than any comparable place. Staff is always super nice, too.

Grace Culler 7 years ago

Fantastic experience: Love this place! Month to month rates, plenty of machines available. They offer a good variety of classes.

Misses. Booker 7 years ago

Fantastic experience: Low key gym, good in and out workout without the pressure of it being conventional. Really dig the low lights and machine options

Kansas City Taxi (Merc Madriver) 7 years ago

Fantastic experience: The only place you want to be for early morning steps, weights, or a Jog. Frequent classes to get involved with and positive trainers.

Alexai Dowell 8 years ago

Fantastic experience: Best Gym in KC, clean friendly, safe, great locations and amenities,

Holly Cass 8 years ago

Fantastic experience: I love this gym! The friendly staff and atmosphere is a big part of why I have been going back for the last 9 months and lost 45 lbs. Great equipment, plenty of different lifting equipment and very clean!

Charlie J 8 years ago

Fantastic experience: not too busy most times, pretty good machine selection, 24 hours

Corey Schaadt 8 years ago

Fantastic experience: Super friendly staff. I don't feel nervous due to the fact that I'm not overly experienced at working out. Nobody judges and it is a judement free environment.

Cullen R 8 years ago

Fantastic experience: Great gym! Quiet, peaceful place to come pound some iron or sweat a bad day away. Ignore that guy that gives one star because he can't read weight labels... those kinds of douchey people don't belong here.
