Best Gym near Reading, Pennsylvania

I came In earlier today to buy a membership and quickly felt the rude hospitality. My fault for not walking out sooner but the woman at the front desk was rude with quick responses and was not considerate of my time, so noticeably that the other woman worker in the back make a joke about how slow she was typing. Before leaving I decided that this place was not for people who wanted to be treated with respect and upon request of cancellation of my membership the woman rolled her eyes, sucked her teeth, and quickly said bye in a loud disrespectful tone. Do not even thing about this YMCA, you deserve better treatment.

Member 45 years, best kept secret in town. Every type of equipment, indoor track, gyms, steam and sauna. Join and meet people from every walk of life.

The worst customer service I have ever received, I came in earlier today and instantly felt unwelcome. (maybe because I am black) the two older woman at the front desk were rude as I was asking questions about the gym and received quick responses with a stare as if I was a bother. Before leaving I requested to cancel my membership that i got earlier due to the customer service. The older woman in the front desk with a brownish/black wig (who was doing nothing) sucked her teeth as I waited for a response then directed me to the other woman in a desk behind her in the back who made a sigh before addressing me. I heard the woman mumbling things on my way out about me. If i could give no stars I would.

We've been trying desperately to get swimming lessons here for months and have finally given up. Signed up online back in August and have been calling and emailing regularly since then to actually schedule something. Every time we're told someone will call us back to schedule something and we never hear anything. About 3 weeks ago we called to complain and were told by the worker that this is "completely unacceptable" and "it will be passed on to a supervisor and they'll be in contact with you tomorrow at the latest." Guess what? Never heard anything. So we call back a week later and are told the same thing. Oh well. I guess we'll find somewhere else when it gets warm.

Is a bad environment how did I come here with my service dog? I got denied entrance. I usually work out at the YMCA. I’m going to sue This place for the fact, they deniedmy service dog entrance The CEO he is no good. The daycare center is no good. You got unresponsible people in this place. I’m recommending no One should go through this I contacted the CEO by email and he is so unprofessional. He did not get back to me. I want This to go viral and please listen to me don’t go to this place no more let’s have a chain to close this place down. I have my lawyer is working on it already. And I hope everyone sees this before This review got taken down cause that’s what they do. So please, let’s all call the state to shut this place down. It’s been open for a long time because no one from Reading. Doesn’t have the Balls enough to make a complaint I’m from New York City and that’s what I do make complaints on bad environment Thank you have a blessed day

Want to learn to box? Go to KINGS! This gym has a genuine history and atmosphere you can’t fake. Marshall Kauffman and team have built a strong team of champions and is a great asset to the Reading community and its youth.

A diamond in the rough. Best gym in the world!

Best Gym on the East Coast

Nice compact fitness center. The students are nice and focused on their workouts. It wouldn't hurt for the staff to say hello, but fitness is the main goal.

Very nice,very accommodating,and great staff.

Great equipment, fun programs, helpful staff

Very polite People and various workout machines,well kept

Is it actually a gym or jus a volleyball court?

They have some good coaches

My family and I love this facility! However, we were unaware the hours changed and drove the family out to find a dark Planet Fitness. We’re not alone— lots of others driving in/out of the parking lot while we googled what was going on.

Message to owner. It was a great place to come and get your workout in and out but as courteous and as respectful as I was the staff. I was very clean with the best gym etiquette. They judged me for recovering addiction due to scars on my arms. The gym is my therapy and way to stay sober because being fit is part of my life and when I lose my muscle and strength, it leads me to insecurities that cause me to use due to my body and strength helping me work harder at work and get better jobs!

One of the largest of the Planet Fitness I've seen. Plenty of everything you need to get your fitness on.

Barely any good machines. Nothing for hip thrusts, no free bars etc. Everything is very Generic. The Smith machines are rarely available. There’s only three of them and one is constantly broken. You’re lucky if a spray bottle works properly. Tried to walk in at 6:40 PM on a Saturday for a quick 15 minute workout and the doors were locked already.

I've been going for about a month now. Every worker or member I've interacted with has been friendly. I've seen the staff around cleaning locker rooms and refilling stations. Good environment 👍

Master Moyer is a top notch martial artist. I have been with Master Moyer since 14 yrs old I'm cresting 50 yrs old now. If you have a child who is interested in learning Martial Arts and or you as an adult might be interested in learning the martial arts please join our family. Master Moyer I love you and my family adores you thanks for everything you have done for me.

I have been part of this dojo since it was in a barn and I was just a kid. I started in martial arts and moved into the kickboxing and both sides were a blast. I don't live in PA anymore, but they are still my family and I wish I could still train here. Great place to learn and work out. Master Moyer takes great care of his students (karate and kickboxing) and you won't regret checking them out.

If you want hands on martial arts training by a very skilled instructor and a group of students that will help you and motivate you every step of the way, then this is the place for you!

Great gym, never really understood the hate this place gets. The membership is super cheap with great amenities. The only downside is there is only smith machines and no real squat racks or bench racks, and the dumbells only go to 75 lbs. It's not a huge deal, but I know Planet Fitness is adding in new machines soon including a hack squat( which I'm very excited about)

Hours are Sunday 7AM to 7PM. I showed up on a cold, rainy Sunday morning at 7AM. Doors were locked. I waited until 7:20AM and no employee ever showed up. There were quite a few disgruntled members saying that this has happened before because this place is run by a bunch of kids. The Sunday morning employee should be FIRED. No work ethic here. Why didn't the manager come over here to open the doors or else get another employee to open the door at 7? People expect a business to be open during their operating hours. No excuses!

Every time I go into my planet fitness, I am greeted with a smile and friendly professionalism. It is always kept very clean and if I have any questions about equipment all I need to do is ask. Al, Luca and the PF team are wonderful!

I dont use this gym but my great grandmother has been coming here for years now, she has early but strong onset dementia and this gym has always been her safe spot. She LOVED the 30 min room so much as it was where she was always at, recently there was a renovation of some sort and you guys took out everything that she adored, not only this but she had an episode due to how much it changed and her dementia flared up, she is now hospitalized for a few days. I hope you guys take this into consideration, and the others who have had issues with the new “renovations”

Very clean with good equipment. It doesn’t feel to packed either. This gym has a very good vibe as well.

My Wife and I have gone there for sessions and have done retreats there including a private retreat for myself, even to the point i even found myself wishing it was a two week retreat because it helped so much. I felt like i was not just heard but understood by both Carrie and her husband Christopher. Both have given me new tools i was able to use right away and have given me the gift of being able to “see myself” in such a better light. The meditation i learned was fun & interesting. I’ve used it in my daily life to start my day and find it really helpful. The yoga helped with feeling more comfortable and was perfect for a low impact man like myself. A great experience, would recommend them to anyone.

There are not enough good words in the dictionary to describe the work that Carrie and her husband, Chris do here at hOMe PYM. I live in Raleigh and tried to find something similar that incorporated therapy, yoga and meditation and it does not exist. Carrie has helped me over the last year tremendously.

Both my daughters train here and coach andres is great at what he does ! My kids have been here for 3 months they love it and they are really learning a lot I’m very impressed !! this gym makes everyone feel like family I would recommend this if your looking to start boxing

My kids train here, it’s excellent. Coach Andres is a great coach and even better person.

Best gym around 100%

What a great place for fighters to train. Champions are formed and groomed here.

Great food! Great people!

I can't say enough great things about Ex-fit! The staff is absolutely incredible and take time out of their day to greet each member as they walk in the door. They make you feel like more than just a number. The gym is always clean, bright and welcoming. No matter what fitness level you are at, there is something for everyone. Management consistently makes improvements and upgrades to the facility and equipment. The childcare room is top notch and the childcare staff are phenomenal! The best gym in the area!

Love this gym! Childcare is amazing! Staff is helpful and professional. The gym is clean and fully stocked with everything you need!

These guys r the best. Shoutout to John the manager for always staying motivated n on top of things. Ben, Jordan, Matt, are some of the best guys around. Good men!! They all need a raise cuz the guys make that gym actually welcoming. Place is always clean n stocked. It’s like the tv show CHEERS, “I wanna go we’re everyone knows your name.” There my boys. Great gym seriously.

I’ve been a member at Exeter fitness since they opened! It’s a good environment to workout in I love the atmosphere. All the employees are very nice and helpful! J Mac makes the best shakes!

By far the cleanest gym I’ve been apart of. Staff always approachable and know members by name. Fast turnaround time for maintenance. 100% recommend.

Great atmosphere and the new owner is very sweet. They have big plans for this gym and care about what the community wants! The space is huge and has all you need for a good lift. Can’t wait for many more workout sessions here

I've down the chain gyms, it wasn't for me. Warhouse is where it's at. They make you feel welcome and everyone there is helpful. Excited to continue my fitness journey here.

I was only there once since I joined, but am in love with this gym. I can see myself spending alot more time there. I haven't been to a gym like this since the 80's. (Showing my age). Definitely dedicated to a serious workout. This gym is not about scantily dressed chicas ,looking in the mirror to see who's watchimg. Im a little self conscious about people watching me. The gym is roomy, your not working out on top of other patrons I can find secluded spots to retreat alone. I highly recommend becoming a member.

What an awesome atmosphere definitely returning. This place has equipment that other gyms don't have the music is always pumping they have a protein bar for the end of your work out peanut butter shakes are amazing 👌🏾 and the staff are one of a kind. I travel alot and hit different gyms but this gym by far is spectacular 🙌🏾 👌🏾 💪🏾 👏🏾 see yall soon.

No Excuses, No Drama, No Bull-Shi$, that’s what Warhouse is about! Come train and let your problems at the door! #gym

Amazing place! The owner, Tara, is very caring and you can tell she loves her job. She's very passionate about helping kids with special needs and goes out of her way to push them in a loving manner.

All Abilities' owner and staff create a safe nurturing environment for children and adults of all abilities! My daughter loves the personal relationships that were developed through both group classes and individual sessions with instructors and peers. She loves to participate in the fun activities, while growing more physically active and social. The owner and staff invest the time to communicate and make parents feel comfortable.

This place is awesome. Tara is a wonderful instructor. Takes her time with her clients and is very caring. She is a person to trust with your child.
