Short Fitness & Sports Center

Experiencia positiva: Needs a Pool or the Base to open a pool.... it's been too long, everything else is great, there needs to be a 12+ft deep diving board, 6m platform , and 50m length pool for all the special forces training needs as well as the needs of family and retired service members. Insane to have a base so top heavy and not have one.

Experiencia fantástica: Very clean Never busy at 05-0600. Lots of equipment. Even has a family workout area! What a great idea.

Experiencia fantástica: Awesome gym and faculty!

Experiencia fantástica: Great place to break a sweat. Wifi was excellent. Prefer the showers here over FAMCAMP.

Experiencia positiva: Ya always know when it's an AFB when the women are in great shape and the men look like they'd get lost inside their own home. Decent gym, some machines should probably be moved for a better flow. Nice copy paste design of Kadenas gym

Experiencia fantástica: This fitness center is fantastic. Incredible amount of equipment and services. It sits conveniently next to a rubber-surfaced track and soccer/football field that has artificial turf. Showers, lockers, sauna, restrooms are always very clean. Very clean. I recommend this gym to anyone who has access. In fact, they have a 24-hour unmanned access capability that I take advantage of and enjoy. Plenty of free parking. Thank you to the staff.

Experiencia negativa: Big gym, has enough equipment but FILTHY. I wipe down the equipment before I use it and they don't clean the locker room regularly. People's trash will sit there for days

Experiencia negativa: Can’t rely on this place to get a good workout in on the drill weekends. They make it impossible for TRs to come in on a weekend and sign up by closing at 1. And the key card they give you doesn’t even work. Super strict gym, almost like being in the military and getting a good workout in is prohibited.

Experiencia positiva: Not always clean or organized but a solid gym:)

Experiencia fantástica: God i love this gym...military base gyms are so perfect. Theres always tons of machines...tons of weights the sauna is perfect the only thing that would make this gym 6 stars is a pool.

Experiencia fantástica: This gym has everything you need and then some!

Experiencia fantástica: Great place to train and relax.

Experiencia fantástica: So many options I didn’t know where to start! A spin room, huge weight area, cardio upstairs, stretching areas, family area, clean, sauna, friendly staff, no complaints!

Experiencia fantástica: Great on base gym. It ahs multiple areas to work out. Just don't come around 5pm it is the most busy. However it is always clean and the facility has plenty of amenities for any type of work out.

Experiencia positiva: For several weeks in the small(er) weight machine room, there have been several pieces of equipment with Out of Order signs. Today, every leg machine had a sign on it. Also, the women's restroom had a stopped up sink full of dirty water. I love this gym and hate to see it not maintained.

Experiencia fantástica: Love this place, no complaints whatsoever. From the equipment to the different areas to workout. There were a few out-of-order machines but otherwise it was a great experience to workout there. I love the sauna!

Experiencia negativa: Machines are constantly inoperable and it takes them 3 months to get them fixed. You can tell that maintenance is not done. This is the only gym in the base, it should be a priority. I only took a picture but there were 6 more machines inop at this moment.

Experiencia fantástica: W workers and gym

Experiencia fantástica: Muy bueno.

Experiencia fantástica: Great base gym, Best part are outside facilities

Experiencia negativa: The fact that this on base gym is closed randomly is the most irritating thing possible. I have never been on a military installation that the gym is closed during the middle of the day. No signage posted informing people of when they will be closed.

Experiencia fantástica: Amazing staff, equipment, and accommodations. I've been coming here forever, and it always seems to get better.

Experiencia positiva: Good facility.

Experiencia fantástica: There are a lot of different rooms here with different equipment, so make sure to walk around if you can't find something. The larger strength area is not air conditioned very well. Locker room is massive!

Experiencia fantástica: Super helpful staff loads of machines

Experiencia fantástica: Nice on-Base gym. Tons of equipment, basketball courts, racket ball courts, 20 Concept 2 rowers.

Experiencia positiva: Nice gym. But it’s 2023 and the strongest Air Force in the world can’t figure out the computer system to allow 24/hr access. Craziness! But besides that, this is one amazing gym. Very impressed with all they offer.

Experiencia fantástica: A great facility on MacDill AFB. Open to active military, retirees, and family. Think military PT on steroids! This place has got it all, from the hard-core metal pushers to the kiddies. Very family-friendly facility. The front desk staff is always friendly and helpful and the gym is open after-hours for those with active cards. So if you're at the base, swing by and get you're workout on.

Experiencia fantástica: Very clean and nice place.

Experiencia fantástica: Love it here the only thing I wish they could change is the hours of the sauna. Instead of shutting it down at 8:30 they should at least stay till 11.

Experiencia fantástica: Very nice facility

Experiencia fantástica: Very nice facility

Experiencia positiva: Great gym, lots of equipment, clean, and now that the base is in HPCON Bravo you don't have to wear a mask!

Experiencia fantástica: The Best Gym.

Experiencia fantástica: Top Notch faculty. Has large multi-level and diversified equipment inside and, large outdoor facility which includes numerous types of stations suitable for Crossfit exercises. Friendly and helpful staff as well.

Experiencia fantástica: One the best gyms I’ve been too

Experiencia fantástica: Sweat n tears

Experiencia fantástica: One the best gyms I’ve been too

Experiencia positiva: No sure

Experiencia positiva: Size.. check. Correct number of pieces of equipment ... check. Cleanliness.... fail. Really need to replace the bars that have rusted out. Need to place an incline bench or 2 at the outdoor Conex gym. But... you can get your swole on here.

Experiencia fantástica: Big gym with plenty of equipment.

Experiencia fantástica: It's a nice gym.

Experiencia positiva: Great gym. Can get busy in the morning with retirees and active duty

Experiencia fantástica: The most fabulous vast and fully comprehensive gym you'll ever see.

Experiencia positiva: Este echipat cu tot ce este necesar pentru a practica sport.

Experiencia fantástica: Great Place to workout!

Experiencia fantástica: Great Gym in South Tampa for AD, Vets with ID to get on post, Reservists, & Guardsmen. I also bring my family, there is a nice section for the little ones with a bounce house where they can also "workout". Every cardio machine you could imagine, stretching aids and a track outside. Early morning on weekends I often have the place to myself, We love it here!

Experiencia fantástica: Nice rubberized track with stations for pull ups and a lot more.

Experiencia fantástica: You're greeted by friendly staff at the front desk who will go out of their way to ensure you know your way around and will answer any questions you may have. The facility is hard to describe as it's so massive that even pictures don't do it justice. I guess if you took 20 Gold's Gym's and added more equipment then it might come close to equaling the scale of MacDill's. It's not just the amount and variety of equipment, it's the quality. Our Armed Forces are second to none and deserve the best and this facility ticks off all of those boxes.

Experiencia fantástica: Comprehensive gym with a full range of weights and equipment well maintained.

Experiencia fantástica: Connie led an all star cycle 45 class. Great work out class.

Experiencia fantástica: One of my favorite gyms by far. The staff do a good job of keeping the place clean and organized and they take the mask mandate seriously.

Experiencia fantástica: Very large facility. Sometimes you have to look in odd places to find some of the more unique equipment. There is also an open air gym outside, with more than enough options to keep the biggest fitness freaks entertained, occupied, and well worked. The hours are very limited, but that seems to be a general trend around the area.

Experiencia fantástica: Great gym. Clean with friendly staff.

Experiencia fantástica: Very clean, the people there take an active approach to keeping it squared away.

Experiencia fantástica: So far so good / Outstanding.

Experiencia fantástica: Nice gym, plenty of equipment to accomplish most workouts. Facilities are clean the staff is nice.

Experiencia fantástica: Did the BootCamp class with Luigi and it was AWESOME ???? ???? ????

Experiencia fantástica: Awesome

Experiencia positiva: Has 3 separate places with machines and courts as well, oh and an upstairs cardio area, not as impressive as some reviews make it

Experiencia fantástica: Clean private

Experiencia fantástica: Great gym. Clean with friendly staff.

Experiencia positiva: Very sanitary and clean. Wide variety of equipment to use to get your gains.

Experiencia fantástica: Awesome

Experiencia fantástica: Very open and they had free soccer balls

Experiencia fantástica: Very clean.

Experiencia fantástica: Awesome facilty

Experiencia fantástica: It's difficult to maintain cleanliness and order in a gym with so many users, especially in the morning around typical mandatory PT times, but the staff and users here do a great job. I think this gym could use an expansion for both the weight floor and cardio equipment, but they keep what they have well maintained. The outdoor facilities are great and the tracks and running trails are also very nice. Tons of showers available which is great during busier hours.

Experiencia fantástica: Need base access. Excellent facilities! Currently in COVID mode so only allowing a limited number of people inside and a mask is required in most areas. This keeps it pretty empty and most machines are open without a wait.

Experiencia fantástica: This gym is one of the only military gyms I know that have 24 hours accessibility. It has a shake bar and many fitness rooms. You also are accessible to the outside rubber track and huge plush green grass field (also artificial)! This is a 5 star gym in my books!

Experiencia fantástica: Better than going off base during this Pandemic!! Really like the measures put in place. The best part is it is not crowded.

Experiencia fantástica: Great equipment and facilities for your exercise needs.

Experiencia fantástica: Best military commissary in Tampa.....

Experiencia positiva: The gym is now open with slightly different operating hours. Due to COVID precautions, you need to bring your own towel, water bottle and wear a mask. Each patron is only allotted 1 hour to workout, so come prepared.

Experiencia positiva: Probably one of the best gyms I've been to on a military installation.

Experiencia fantástica: Excellent Center

Experiencia fantástica: Always professional staff! Very clean and easy to use.

Experiencia fantástica: Air force gets all the good stuff

Experiencia fantástica: Plenty of space and equipment to use. Running tracks outside are in good condition.

Experiencia fantástica: I've been to MANY MANY Military gyms from Seattle to Tampa and Sandiego to Fort Bragg...This is the nicest gym I've ever been to! Everything you need and Many things you may never use (but they have that/those too)

Experiencia fantástica: I go there to play racquet ball and it's clean and awesome! Except they are using one of the courts for fitness which is messed up!

Experiencia fantástica: State of art facility. Great benefit for military on and near MacDill. Better than any gym I've seen in civilian market.

Experiencia fantástica: It is a military gym (Airforce). Very large with a great selection of equipment. Rarely overcrowded.

Experiencia fantástica: The best of best. So grateful to have experienced this gym. It's beautiful clean and exciting. I definitely rate this Physical Fitness Center the Best of Best!!!, . Keep up the excellent hard work.

Experiencia fantástica: Best Air Force gym i've ever been to. Great staff, excellent equipment and LOVE the 24 hr access for military personnel. If your Air Force/Army/Marine/Navy/Coast Guard just register your CAC at the front desk of the Short Fitness Center and they will make you sign a statement of understanding. Bam 24 hr access, and no need for a local gym membership. Plus people at this gym take it seriously and they are there to do work.

Experiencia fantástica: Great gym pretty packed early mornings and during lunch hours but night time is all yours

Experiencia fantástica: Wow! Nice facility! Clean, modern gym with several dedicated workout zones. We are staying at the Coons Creek Famcamp so this is a short hop skip and jump for a good workout. Sure glad we decided to check it out.

Experiencia fantástica: The children's area is one of the best I've seen when it comes to base gyms (I've been to one base whose gym had a children's area with no toys and just 2 eliptical machines haha). Here they have a blow-up house for the kids and lots of machines and weight equipment for adults to use while keeping on eye on their kids.

Experiencia fantástica: This place has almost everything you need for a workout. CrossFit, check. Free weights, check. They even have cycling classes as well as you if your into that. One thing it may not have is an indoor pool. However a pool is nearby so it doesn't really matter.

Experiencia fantástica: Amazing gym. The AF definitely knows how to build amazing facilities.

Experiencia fantástica: Great military gym

Experiencia positiva: Good gym

Experiencia positiva: Great gym that needs an indoor pool for laps and WiFi because cell service is horrible on this base

Experiencia fantástica: Everything you could ever want

Experiencia fantástica: I've been to MANY MANY Military gyms from Seattle to Tampa and Sandiego to Fort Bragg...This is the nicest gym I've ever been to! Everything you need and Many things you may never use (but they have that/those too)

Experiencia fantástica: Awesome gym
