Grinder Gym San Diego

Fantastic experience: My wife and I visited SD for a week and we didn’t want to go to a big box chain. Looking at photos online, this place ticked all the boxes. When we arrived, we were happy to see a parking lot and not street parking. Signing up for a day pass was fast and easy. Was never too crowded. TONS of equipment to pursue strongman, powerlifting, bodybuilding, etc. Love how the gym flows from inside to out so you can get some sun while lifting. The only small complaints I can really think of are having some fans outside in the covered patio area would be so nice, and maybe some smaller speakers throughout the place instead of one big one in the middle and maybe some more ab-focused equipment, but that’s hardly something to knock a star off for. We’ll be coming back here for sure the next time we’re in town. Had a couple of great workouts here this week!

Fantastic experience: Looking for a big, sparkling gym with all the bells and whistles, nice bathrooms, and the latest equipment? Grinder is not it... keep moving. Looking for a true iron shop where people care more about true fitness and goals than vanity and strutting around in the hottest workout gear? This just might be your place. No fancy machines here, just lots of weights, plates, old school grind, sweat and lots of respect. Indoor and outdoor "school yard" set up, fair pricing and good hours.

Fantastic experience: Great gym with strong people, a good collection of equipment, and lots of places to work out outside. The owner was super nice, but even stronger.

Fantastic experience: Amazing gym and staff. Dave is awesome. My son won the strongman competition, so you know this place has what it takes to make champions!

Fantastic experience: Amazing gym - has everything you would need for strength training / bodybuilding / conditioning, and the monthly membership is very affordable! Owner is friendly and welcoming - you'll feel at home here in no time. One of the best finds in San Diego for anyone serious about their training/conditioning.
