Best Gyms with Free Weights near Indiana, Pennsylvania

Update: I spoke with the manager this morning and he reassured me that the situation would be addressed. He also confirmed that Alyssa would not be working this evening so I decided to give PF another try. I noticed how nice and clean the gym and amenities are as I was given a tour and had everything explained to me. The staff was much better this evening! Brooke and Kerry were very helpful and very nice immediately when I arrived. Their customer service skills were great and they were respectful. They made me feel comfortable especially as a new member with lots of questions. I hope I continue to get this type of treatment as well as everyone else that visits PF. No one deserves to be belittled, scorned, or talked to with disgust especially in a gym where people can already feel insecure. I signed up for a black card membership today and tried to use some of the amenities the same day. I first went to PF to sign up, but I was told it is easier to do it on my phone or at home. The person briefly explained the difference between the two types of memberships and said that you can bring a guest anytime with the black card membership. The person even said that some people only get one black card membership for themselves and bring their spouse along instead of getting two memberships. I asked if the tanning and hybrid beds can be used anytime and they said they could as long as the gym is open. No one ever said that your guest cannot use any of the “spa” amenities. I should mention that I have never used a gym or had a membership anywhere before so I am very unfamiliar with how this all works. I decided to drive home, 25 minutes, to complete my membership and bring my 21 year old daughter back to the gym with me (she has also never been a member). Today we were only interested in trying by the hybrid bed, maybe the massage chairs, and to look around. We scanned our passes in and proceeded back to the spa area. No one at the counter addressed us in any way. One hybrid bed was vacant so we went in and we were going to take turns using it. It seemed to work fine- still didn’t know that we did anything wrong. When we came out Alyssa was so disrespectful. In a very rude tone, she snickered that two people can’t be in the room together and said that you must sign up. I just said we were taking turns- again not having a clue that there was any type of policy to use the beds. She totally embarrassed us with her remarks in front of other people waiting to use the beds. She never came up to us after that to talk to us privately. I had to go to the counter to ask what we could use. I then found out that my daughter wasn’t allowed in the spa area by Alyssa but she couldn’t tell me where that was stated. I didn’t see where it states this anywhere and Alyssa didn’t even know where it says this. She also question my daughter’s age, 21, and I’m pretty sure Alyssa herself is younger than that. Alyssa, with her attitude, told me that it’s common sense that two people can’t use the bed. Again, I didn’t know the policy…first time and I am made to feel very stupid. My daughter and I will share a dressing room, a bathroom stall, we have went into a spray tan room to take turns using the booth and it’s never been a problem anywhere else. I have never been treated so poorly by someone and she never tried to nicely explain how anything was supposed to work or what we were supposed to do. Another nice employee did explain that when we first got there, I was supposed to have gotten my picture taken and signed in. I was not told that when I first stopped in to inquire about getting a membership and I didn’t see anywhere on the app that I had to do that. Of course, I didn’t get my picture taken as I was so upset and felt so judged for being new. Judging - Mocking, criticizing, or making negative comments related to another person's appearance, experience, ability, knowledge of equipment, etc. - this is directly from the PF website talking about a “lunk”. Why do you let people work in your facility that are so unkind and unhelpful?

So yesterday i went in the morning and the girls one in a wheelchair and one with glasses. We’re both rude didn’t say hi or bye and just stared like I did something wrong. The night staff is awesome and talks to me and asks how my day is going. The managers there ignore you and act like you shouldn’t be there. 24 hours is what I signed up for only to be let down. I already cancelled my membership once and only have one because my family wants me to go there. You need to change or talk to the day staff because they are going to cost you more business.

If your excuse for cutting the 24 hours is expenses, why are the lights still on? Let me see, Let's say the worker at this establishment makes, 16 dollars an hour? After checking that tends to be correct, Which is ridiculous considering the poor attitude and ease of work that they produce. They're closed 32 hours with the new schedule. 32 × 16 = 512 So, five hundred and twelve dollars is what the convenience is worth. They would rather have 512$, Than please their customers. Not to mention how they baited everyone in with their previously convenient hours, just to be corporate swine after they've made the quota they desired. Shady business practices, poor customer service. Closing my bank account and withdrawing my membership. I encourage anyone reading this to do the same. Give your business to the YMCA, Or the 24 Hour gym at the end of Philly St. Oh yeah, and if you're a female... Please don't forget that sickening scandal they went through with the transgender MAN. Just save your time. Greed is good. What did I expect.

Gym itself isn't bad.... when the what i'm guessing manager isn't there. Not sure if she is the manager but she sure does act like it. She is insanely ignorant to guests that come with members. My friend got the black card so she could always have someone to go with and when I go, I get looks from this lady and judged like I don't belong. I thought about getting my own membership but she definitely made me second guess that choice.

10000% giving 5 stars because of the salty Sally’s giving this place bad reviews. This gym is super clean the staff and fellow patrons are all very nice and helpful. I’ve been to dozens of PFs and this is by far my favorite one.

CFI is outstanding! The coaching is superb, with knowledgeable coaches who offer personalized attention. The community is incredibly welcoming and supportive, making every workout enjoyable. The equipment is top-notch and well-maintained. Would love to drop in again!

Two years later and we still see CFI as our home away from home ! It doesn’t matter if you are a seasoned athlete, or new to exercise. CrossFit Indiana has experienced coaches who will guide you through each step of the way. Not to mention the members who will always make you feel at home. Come check it out !

Joining to Indiana CrossFit team was one the best decision I have made. Instructors are very knowledgeable and great team leaders. They have so many programs helps you to improve yourself with your CrossFit journey. Highly recommended!

I am so happy to have made the decision to make CrossFit Indiana my new home! Excited to really dial into my nutrition with CJ and Matt and Coach Jenn is really knowledgeable and motivating! Everyone is so nice, welcome, and encouraging and I can’t wait to continue my weight loss and fitness journey at CFI!

Visited Indiana for a weekend and dropped into a Saturday morning class. Awesome workout with a welcoming crew. Great instruction, and coaching exceeded expectations. Clean, plenty of space and equipment. 10/10 would go back when in town.

My favorite gym, and I've been to a few over the years. The people here are great, the atmosphere is straight up "you are here to work." No lunk alarms, nobody filming, and the location is ridiculously convenient. On top of all that, the price is amazing for what you get access to equipment-wise, just don't expect to come here and be wowed by amenities and other distractions from what you go here to do: work.

Uptown Fitness is awesome. Kelly, the manager (and personal trainer) is fantastic. She changed how I view fitness. I've been going there for five months, and I can't believe how much stronger I am now than when I started. I'm over fifty and I really wish I knew how much easier and more satisfying it is to strength train than run when I was in my early twenties. The gym has so many different rooms and options for everything you need. It feels more personal, like home, than the huge gyms with all the equipment in one room. The staff and other members of the gym are so friendly. I like that a lot of times there are just as many, if not more, women lifting than men. I look forward to going and I always feel much better when I leave. Overall, the vibe is great, and I have had nothing but positive experiences. Which is great because this is a journey that involves consistency that has so many health benefits, especially as we age. If you’re even thinking about going to this gym, stop by and take a tour. It could change your life. That's how I started.

Love this gym !!! They have the best equipment, very friendly staff and they are open 24 hours. Also love that they have 2 personal trainers that are available for scheduled training sessions. The place is very clean and never over crowded definitely recommend.

Great place to work out. The staff are all very friendly and the facility is super clean. However, my main reason for writing this testimonial would be about the immense gratitude I have for the Manager/My Personal Trainer at Uptown Fitness. I was referred to Kelly Musser in late February 2021 and was ready to begin my fitness journey, specifically interested in one-on-one training with a professional. This has been the best decision I've ever made for myself. Kelly is encouraging, motivating, and very thorough with her explanations and outright spot on with her visuals to demonstrate proper technique and form to ensure you are safely and effectively achieving your fitness goals. Kelly challenges you and is right by your side guiding you along the way. What an amazing trainer Kelly is...second to none! I lost 20 pounds in the first 14 weeks, minimized my stress levels, and pants size:) Thanks you for making me feel proud even of my smallest achievements. Your positive attitude has really kept me going. I've enjoyed the training so much and am very grateful for all your support. Holly M. Hall

I have been going to this gym for about a year now and I have been overall pretty pleased with my experience. There are tons of different machines, a lot I don't even know the use for. Even when crowded there is still enough space to be able to cater to your own personal workout needs. There are two separate rooms that are available for use that I use for planks/chin ups. The staff are always friendly and there are many different classes offered here. I just have yet to join in on any of them because they're a bit out of my price range. The only negative thing I can say is that the vending machines are often empty and the doors to the restroom are propped open a lot of the time for some reason. Oh, also, the news is ALWAYS on the TV and it doesn't feel like you should change it. That's just not really something that makes me feel like working out. Other than that, the place is very nice and well stocked on towels and cleaning spray for equipment! Recommend it if you're looking for a gym to go to.

I really like this gym. It has some Nautilus equipment, and a good variety for almost every muscle! The gym is pretty small, but everything is spaced out logically and orderly. Give it a chance! The place is also really clean, kept organized, and taken care of well. Pricing is fair, and it is mostly a pleasant atmosphere. I will miss going here!

Very uncomfortable because owner would follow around an continue to interrupt workout every 2 mins. Always nit picking about using equipment to work out, and was more worried about them looking pretty!! I've been in the gym for a long time and it was very unprofessional and inconsiderate. Considering I payed dues to use equipment and not just look at it! Would not recommend to anyone serious about their training and workouts!

It's like a very large basement gym. Their equipments are good but very old and they definetly need to upgrade. Theres not a lot of floor space as it's too cluttered with too much equipment but not enough space. It's usually empty so if u looking for a peaceful workout then this is the place, however I felt slightly uncomfortable with the guy that's there always wondering around watching me. I understand its safety procedure (and he did give me so useful pointers) but knowing that am beign followed and watched distracted me heavily from my workout and I didnt really enjoy working out in there like I normally do. At most gyms they are cameras as with this one but therez no one that follows you around watches you closely, so for that reason is why I wont be returning to this gym.

Went today for the first time and I am very pleased. It’s not overpriced it’s very clean and the owner is a great guy. I’m returning every time I come to town to get my lift.

Everything you could want in a gym with a super nice owner. Quality equipment, never overcrowded.

The best cross fit gym in town! Owners are so helpful and empowering. You feel like family when you walk in. My fav part is there is no shame when you miss a few classes or fall off track. You are met with love. These people care your not just a monthly number to them.

This community is the best I’ve ever encountered. The coaches are encouraging and honest with the review of your form as well as recommendations on weights to limit injury. I’ve never worked out in an environment that has so many supportive members who not only encourage you in the gym but also check in on you outside of the gym. The owner has an amazing group of coaches who all want their members to grow and succeed.

Can’t say enough positive things about this gym! I contacted the owner, Trista, when I was 12 week’s postpartum to see what CrossFit was all about and if it would be a good fit for me. I’ve never been an athlete and I came in at the lowest strength of my adulthood so I was intimidated at first- this was quickly changed the moment I went in for my first class! Trista nourishes an extremely welcoming and encouraging environment with every single member cheering you on and pushing you through your doubts and fears. The gym is clean, conveniently located, affordable, and has great hours for anyone’s busy schedule to get in a class when they can. I highly recommend for anyone that’s interested in hands on training to push you (comfortably and safely) out of your comfort zones and into a strong and healthy lifestyle!

Green fire crossfit has completely changed my way of thinking about nutrition and working out. I’ve never been one to care about fitness or eating right until this gym came into my life. The coaches are super uplifting and motivating and will guide you through not only the exercises, but also how to make small changes to impact your diet and achieve your goals and ways to start having a more positive mindset. Best gym in town!

i love this gym but their treadmill has been broken for months and they don’t have enough treadmills to just not fix it…

I have been a member of BTN Fitness for over 10 years. I love working out here, because it is always clean and the owners and the staff are courteous. Over the years, I have worked with various trainers and they have all been top notch. I always have the freedom to pop in and grab a workout on my own time without any waits for machines or space. I love the new option of 24/7 access and free classes. I met the owners, Audra and Nathan, when I first joined BTN --and have trained with Audra of and on over the years. They are both friendly and always greet me with a smile when they are in the facility. They are focused on their members having a great gym experience. One of the reasons I have been a member all of these years. I recommend BTN to anyone who asks me about it.

Love this gym! If you are looking for a quiet and clean gym with a large variety of equipment - this is a great place. The staff is always friendly and helpful. The classes kicked my butt (in a good way) and the facilities were always clean and in good working order. I highly recommend this gym.

BTN Fitness is not your ordinary gym because it is owned and operated by an extraordinary couple - Audra and Nathan Williams. There are a lot of positive things to note about the fitness center itself, but it is a special place because of the Williams. They are all about service - to members, staff and the larger (even global) community. Members and staff are treated like family. All of the staff are friendly, helpful and conscientious . They care about the place because they are cared about. Take a virtual tour on Facebook to see the facility for yourself.
