YMCA of Bucks County | Quakertown

Positive experience: I am going to start this post by first saying that I truly appreciate and value what the YMCA does in regards to being community oriented. The front desk staff is extremely friendly, helpful, and engaging. They really do enjoy helpung clients out. The facility is really big and kept very well maintained. There is a lot to offer in this facility with the pool, sauna, basketball courts, pickleball room. Now, to break down the weight room. The cardio room/turf area has elite equipment for people who are on strict diets/HIIT training programs. Love that they added a sled to the turf section. In regards to the weight room, the machines are top notch, dummbells are really great, love the metal plates, and love that they still allow the use of chalk. A lot of gyms wouldnt allow chalk, the YMCA does (have to clean up after yourself). The barbells though are a bit run down with minimal knurl on them as they are older York barbells that have seen better days. They do have a safety squat bar, but again, it has seen better days. They do not have a swiss bar, or a cambered bar. The only other negative of the YMCA outside of barbells, is they only have 2 squat racks. A lot of guests use these two racks for other lifts outside squats, so you may wait awhile if the place is packed. If you are a swimmer, love to play basketball, enjoy bodybuilding, or just staying toned/getting/staying in shape, this gym is for you! If you are power lifter, or olympic weight lifter, you may want to look into another facility.

Positive experience: It's big. Has a lot of activities for all ages. Pool is the best feature for me. Basketball court tennis court gymansium. Well worth it. The only draw back for me is not 24 hours. I work out late like 10 onwards

Fantastic experience: It's a YMCA. People are friendly and it's a nice facility. I'm able to go during the day when most folks are at work so can't really say whether it gets crowded or not. I'm happy with the selection of machines and they have a nice pool. Very clean, good fitness classes.

Fantastic experience: My wife and I signed up for swim lessons. We were immediately impressed with the facility and staff. After our first swim lesson we decided to enroll as members. Now we go there 4 days a week to swim or to play picketball. The facility is large, clean, well maintained and the staff are really helpful and courteous. We highly recommend the facility. And if you want swim lessons, see if you can get the Associate Director of Aquatics, Sarah to be your instructor: she is amazing.
