Best Gyms with Cardio Machines near Phoenixville, Pennsylvania

I have been a member at the Phoenixville YMCA for almost 30 years. The basketball courts are in horrendous condition. With the increased costs in membership fees you would think they would make cleanliness and safety a priority. When camp is finished the staff pushes piles of trash and debris underneath the basketball rims and it stays there till closing time. The courts have so much dust and dirt on them that you cannot get traction and slip. It really is a safety hazard. The nets on the rims are always ripped. Children’s clothes from camp are scattered throughout the gymnasium. Food and liquids are stuck to the court. It’s despicable. Whoever is in charge of managing the facility is doing a terrible job. And this is a problem being voiced by many members. We pay our hard earned money to be members at the YMCA and we expect the facilities to be in good condition. This is unacceptable. Make the necessary changes and please correct this problem.

I love this location because of the gymnastics class and pools! Facility is always clean and there's just an upbeat vibe every time I go.

This Phoenixville YMCA center is not good at all due to the way it is handled by the management. There is a huge variation between the YMCA spring valley and this one. Very unorganized and pathetic staff and trainers. I don’t recommend this center at all for its way of operations. Staff does not seem to be qualified especially the swimming. I would never look back again to the Phoenixville center. Very bad.. disappointing.

We swung by phoenixville Y one day, instead of our home Y that we have been going to for years, and have kept coming for the last 6 months! The entire staff really make the difference. From the front desk to the pool to the gym to group classes to the kidzone. Everyone is SO friendly, helpful and happy vibes. There’s the same but less equipment than other locations but it’s never too crowded like some other locations.

LOVE THIS BRANCH!!! Unlike the overpriced(the charge for outdoor pools), ignorant, and uninformative Ambler branch that limits when you can bring guests until 4pm, like people don't work, Phoenixville (DID I MENTION I LOVE THEM?!) let's you bring guests WHENEVER! They have several different pools, very clean facilities, and the SWEETEST most helpful staff. My personal favorite! Worth a drive ✅

I love going there I go at least 5 days of the week, very first time I walk in with small hand punching pad bcoz I like to kick and punch since I am a martial art person, staff said I am not allowed to take that small hand punching pad , why? It is just a sponge I wish I can take that with me Or they provide one at the gym

I started my membership and have been a member of this location for more than 5 years with not many complaints. It is a well-maintained gym with sufficient equipment. I had to move recently and wanted to cancel my membership. When I tried it in-person the first time the system was down and they wanted me to try again later. I called and checked and they said I could do it in-person only and I can cancel it anytime before the monthly payment ran. Despite moving and having to drive again for more than an hour to get there, I was told I should cancel at least 10 days before the payment schedule date. If not, they will charge the membership for another month. I was told something completely different by the person on the phone when called. I tried to reach out to the manager and despite constant emails, I haven't even gotten a response or acknowledgment email till date. Wish I didn't have to leave such reviews, but this might help someone else thinking of canceling their membership to do it well in advance or else be ready to pay another month even if not using.

Have been a member for 4+ years and highly recommend. It is clean, quiet and well-maintained. All resistance machines are brand new as of November 2022. They have a ton of cardio equipment including treadmills, ellipticals, bikes, stair climbers and rowing machines. Even at peak times there are plenty of cardio machines. They do have some free weights, although somewhat limited, but there are plenty of machines, including Smith machines which are nice. There is also a PF 30 minute workout area which is a great way to get used to some of the gear for people who are new to the gym. The staff is friendly and will show you how to get started and use the equipment. It's a great value for the price and a fun, easy and low-key place to work out.

I have been injured, so I have only been able to use my membership for tanning, but I enjoy it so far. The Manager is very nice and she knows I am hearing impaired and I appreciate that she looks at me when speaking and makes sure I can understand what she is saying. That means a lot to me. I look forward to continuing qt this PF when I can start working out!

I go here often to work out, shower, and use the massage area. Always clean with friendly staff and other gym members.

I had a recent back injury, with nerve involvement down to my knee. After a few months of physical therapy my pain was better but not completely gone. I started working with Joe and his team about 3 months ago and my back pain is virtually gone. I'm down 25 pounds from this time last year and I feel and look much better. Highly recommend for those looking to get their core stronger, and increase mobility, following a back injury.

Passion for Fitness was just what I was searching for in my journey as an athlete. As a dedicated climber there is a lot of demand placed on my shoulders. In the past 7 years my right shoulder has undergone a lot of trauma-- surgery for a torn rotator cuff and surgery with three months in a sling for a broken collar bone. On top of that I have scoliosis which rotates my right shoulder inward, making it challenging to use my shoulder in optimal positions. The upshot was that I had pretty constant impingement in that shoulder when I climbed despite my best efforts to rehab. Enter Joe Ransom: he worked to help me gain mobility and stability as well as increase my strength. Within a few visits I was rarely feeling impinged and today, four months later, I can’t remember the last time my shoulder felt impinged. I am climbing stronger than I ever have and I enjoy feeling the strength and stability gains transferring to all of my endeavors.

I have been over weight most of my life. I have lost and gained the same 95-100 over and over. 2 years ago I injured my back which left me out of work for over a month. It was the worse pain I have ever experienced. I return to my life but not any sort of exercise. To be perfectly honest, I was frightened I would re-injure myself. That said, I knew I needed to do something. It was very important to me to find a personal trainer that would understand my concerns, who had a good knowledge of body mechanics. Physical Therapy, though very helpful, didn't provide the push I needed to increase my overall strength and loose weight. I chose Passion for Fitness after meeting Joe Ransom. He listened to my fears, understood my lifelong struggle and never made me feel uncomfortable. He designed a program I could easily incorporate into my busy life. I work with trainers Steve, Tim mostly and they are wonderful. I hate working out. I really do! They make it fun and apply just the right amount of push and encouragement I need. I am very happy I chose Passion for Fitness and highly recommend them for anyone wanting a great environment that promotes change and empowerment.

I have been going to Passion for Fitness in Phoenixville about 9 months. I really haven't worked out at all in the past 10 years and was looking for a healthy and safe way to get back into it. Both my trainers, Beth and Glenn have been awesome to work with. They developed a program that has given me flexibility, less tightness and targeted my weak and pain point areas like my back and hips. I just feel better now and am getting back into heavier weights without any pain. Highly recommend them for folks trying to re-engage those muscles that have been doing nothing the last 10 years.

I love Passion for Fitness. PFF and it's people are awesome! I have been working with them for 9 months, I've lost 60 lbs. and my results are nothing short of miraculous. Everyone is dedicated and committed to helping you with whatever your fitness goals are. The trainers really take a personal interest in each of their clients. I even got my husband and a couple neighbors to join their boot camp!! If you are considering working with a trainer or joining a boot camp, this should be the first and last place you look.

I have been going to this gym for over a year. They have many different training classes for all demographics. All of the staff and coaches have been extremely friendly and accommodating. Is there a new location in Oaks allows me to come right after work and/or on the weekends before I have to be somewhere because of the showers and locker rooms. This establishment can accommodate any skill level, including newcomers. The culture and energy in this place is very friendly so the gym anxiety people have is not present.

The new location is awesome. Strongman, Crossfit, Cardio, Obstacle Course Training, Yoga and more

Absolutely the best gym I have ever been too. The owner, staff, and other members are incredible. Welcoming, helpful and knowledgeable. The equipment is great, if there is something you are looking for it’s there. 100/10 would recommend to anyone. Beginner to advanced.

I’ve only been a member for about a month but I find the gym to be super welcoming. They have all types of equipment you might need and the staff is super nice. The front Desk people are always kind and available to answer any and all questions and the owners are extremely friendly and welcoming. It makes you feel like your part of a family like you’ve belonged there all along.

Love this place. Great weights. Good atmosphere. Its a little out of my way and I still don't regret it. Great gym if you want 24 hour access.

I signed up for a 6 Week Challenge at Anytime Fitness- Oaks. Everyone thought I was crazy to sign up during the holidays but it has been great. It has kept me focused and motivated during a time when it’s so easy to do everything but workout. I am halfway through my challenge and can’t say enough about the gym and the coaches. It is a very welcoming environment- which I can’t say is always true at other gyms. The coaches meet you where you are and work with you to get you better- no judgement. The training classes are motivating and everyone in the class supports each other. I definitely recommend Anytime Fitness and the 6 Week Challenge to anyone who is looking to jumpstart their fitness journey.

Great place for 24/7 workouts, reasonable prices, and you can use any other Anytime Fitness location too.

I love this Anytime location! Place is never overly busy so I can get most of my workout in without waiting for machines. Place is always clean and well kept, and having private restrooms is a major plus. Staff is great here as well. 100% recommend!

Any time I make a reservation it was never for the same time 4 out of 6 times my schedule is asked to be changed I’m not a gym freak but was registered for 18 months so I can reach my goals wanted to cancel in the middle Initially they mentioned that can be done after 6 months if I had to move for different place later when I actually lost my job and had to move to different place they were asking me for address proof and all we can’t get the proofs immediately but you have no other option but have to continue with the charges Also they charge 40 extra on year end which is not mentioned at the time of registration but they mention that it’s on contract So it’s a good place because I don’t like others as they are crowded but not worth the charges they impose for the service they provide This is recommended place if you want to do your gym without crowd but not for the service they provide

I signed up for a six week challenge at Anytime Oaks, I’m about half way through and cannot say enough about the gym, staff, classes and the challenge itself. The staff is very friendly and helpful, but won’t hesitate to make you sweat in one of their classes! And the gym is always clean and organized, with plenty of towels, sanitizer, etc. the classes are run well and provide a great challenge for beginners and more experienced members equally. I would recommend Anytime Oaks to anyone who wants to start fresh or wants to get back at it in a relaxed, friendly atmosphere !
