Best Gyms with Free Weights near Lexington, South-carolina

Just signed up with help from Victoria, she was incredibly informative and very welcoming. I am super excited they are going to a salt water pool and red light therapy over tanning beds! Feels like actual fitness/wellness more than the oldschool toxic "poison yourself for aesthetics" vibe. Super excited to be here! 🩷

overall, great gym but I do have some concerns... first of all, they talking about replacing the tanning beds with red light therapy.... that is the dumbest thing I've ever heard. also they have a nice pool but no children under the age of 12 are allowed. last night i saw a dog in the pool. so a dog is allowed but not my 6 year old daughter who loves to swim??? got it. also they have a bunch of useless machines but no standing calve raise machine. that is super crazy to me.i also heard other nonsense like changing the pool into a salt water pool... Luke anyone cares. yall get rid of the tanning beds I'm breaking my contract better believe it.

Again, sitting in the dark in the sauna. Theatre room has not functioned since before Christmas. Equipment too close together. Infringes on personal space.

I moved out of the area, Seth H, the general manager and his team made it super easy to cancel my membership! Very nice and professional people!

I hoped after Onelife took over I’d see improvements. I pay more now than I did when it was MUV, yet I have no idea why. I see no improvements, I’m very disappointed. I walked out the tanning room, it was disgusting. As you can see in the photos, hair stuck to the walls, crap stuck to the tanning beds, etc. I’m responsible for cleaning the acrylic (area where you lay) not the walls or the entire bed. Dust all over the fire alarm as if it’s been there for weeks. DHEC requires you Check for cleanliness of tanning equipment and that sanitation is done by an employee of the facility. It’s abundantly obvious it’s not being done.

I finally canceled my membership here today after over a half decade. This place is really going downhill fast. What started as amenities and nice equipment has basically been reduced to “minimally adequate.” Machines are constantly under repair for extended periods of time. Cables break and are often not replaced for months at a time. The locker rooms are usually not clean and have plumbing issues. I would echo a previous review that tape is often placed over things that are broken and this has been the case for years not months. Every member is charged a fee annually for maintenance and upkeep on machinery. But nothing seems to ever be added or maintained. I’ve had to personally carry a tool kit into the gym in order to repair machinery that I wanted to work on. When I asked the current manager, if he have the tools required to tighten bolts, he indicated they have never considered that. The parking lot has many spaces that are too overgrown for cars to park. Lights don’t come on in the parking lot at night. The entrance is a mess of broken lights and exposed wiring. Also inexplicably at some point about a year and a half ago they decided to put gravel at the entrance so every time you try to exit the facility onto a busy road your rear wheel spin and you throw rocks everywhere. Staff turnover is constant and when I went to cancel my membership today, I was just given a slip of paper with an email address To send a cancellation request. No service available at the desk. The owner appears to have been taking customer money for years with little reinvestment.

If I could give zero stars, I would. This place has gone downhill fast. the remedy for the benches is to slap a piece of black tape over it. Several machines are not flat to ground and wobble and shack when you sit down on them. The cable machines have been out of commission for almost two months waiting on a new cable. Very crowded. Poor equipment maintenance. Definitely not the same gym I joined years ago.

Dynamic Fitness offers a comprehensive fitness experience that caters to a variety of workout styles, from strength training to cardio and everything in between. With multiple locations and flexible membership options, it’s a solid choice for anyone looking to improve their fitness levels, regardless of experience. 10/10 highly recommend!!

Loving it. It’s not overly crowded and all the front desk folks are super kind and helpful, especially Dre. He made signing up low stress and easy. The facility is clean and I’ve only taken a couple of classes, but Melissa was super warm and made me feel comfortable in her Spin class. I also love that they offer a month to month membership with 24 hour access.

MOST of the time, it's great, busy at expected times but TONIGHT, 1-2-2025 @8pm; There are at least 10 kids running around jumping on all the equipment, yelling. To address a previous comment, YES there is a good bit of wobbly equipment and it took 4 months to fix a single cable on 1 machine. But the majority of the time, I'm happy here.

I have been going to RockBox in Lexington for about 11 months because I absolutely love the gym, trainers, and members. The classes are tough, but fun. As a 60 year old female, I never thought I would be able to last in boxing and functional-based classes, but with the support of the trainers and other class goers, I have not only lasted, but have a lot more strength and endurance. I would highly recommend RockBox in Lexington to those who want to experience the many benefits regular physical activity can provide.

I absolutely love Rockbox Lexington! From day 1 the owner and staff have been so incredibly nice and welcoming. Very quickly they were greeting me by name. The staff are always full of energy and happiness. I can't say enough good stuff about Rockbox Lexington. I get so excited for every class. I have increased not only my strength and physical ability but my mood has been elevated as well. Highly recommend! Give it a go, you're worth it!!

Be VERY wary of their aggressive attempts to get you to join or sign up for a trial membership. At the end of the day, the owners and their salespeople are looking to get you to sign on the dotted line and convince you to give them a permanent agreement to take you money. And let’s be clear, this gym is small, only does boxing, and is expensive. No pool, no machines, no yoga, Zumba etc. but somehow their monthly is much higher than gyms with ALL those options. And once you sign they will take that very high monthly fee months after you are DEAD without batting an eye. Money first -and second- and third- is their motto. You? Meh. Give them money. You better LOVE boxing to get involved with these people. Because it’s gonna cost you. Dearly.

Love this gym from the 1st time I took a class! Love it so much I drive 30m, 5 times a week to it….😫🫣😍 I have learned so much as far as weight lifting, functional training , boxing, and kickboxing since I joined. The trainers take time to correct form during all exercises. The classes are lit and fun! We the clients become like family to each other. We encourage each other and hold each accountable.

If you are looking for a safe, fun and encouraging environment on your health & fitness journey, RockBox is the place! The trainers are intentional with leading the workouts, helpful in correcting form and the staff is always so welcoming. I LOVE going! If I could give 10 stars, I would 💪😊

I totally enjoy the atmosphere at Planet Fitness, and this new location has it; a great vibe, friendly staff, and great equipment. Very excited as this one is close to home. Also has a great window view while working out.

It’s good for the casual gym goer. They promised alot of new weights and machines , which I was under the impression they would have regular benches and maybe dumbbells that go over 75lbs, but that’s not the case. The machines are also scattered all over. Instead of having all the leg equipment in one area, I have to go searching for hamstrings, calves, etc. It’s the same as any other PF.

Nice gym. Has what you want to get a good workout. Staff is friendly! nice to work with and talk to them :) I think the black card is worth it for the recovery after!

I have been going to this gym for 17 years. It is one of the best gyms I’ve ever been a part of. The atmosphere, the equipment, the people are all top notch. The owner, Jeff, is one that lives and breathes the lifestyle and is a great person. I couldn’t recommend a place more.

Great membership prices, however the gym needs major renovation. Machines are outdated and always broken. Treadmills are always out and super old school. Please fix it

Lift/grunt as much as you desire. Decently raw Gym with good diversity of members. The manager Jeff is a nice outgoing dude. It’s a great community where I’ve made some of my best friends. Members are pretty nice and supportive too. Since I’ve been going on my own, I’ve made friends with almost everybody in 6 months.

Gym equipment=good stuff Customer service=ZERO stars Repeated attempts (calls, texts, emails) to meet with the owner to get the key for my daughter (the membership in my name for my daughter); never a single response despite 3 months of trying. Finally got a response when I canceled and she is charging me a 30 day fee and a cancelation fee. Be wary the owner is only around 1 or 2 hours a day to get keys and it had better be on her schedule!

I've been working out at Xtreme fitness for about a month now. I have been a member of other gym's in the area. After leaving USC and using their Strom Thurmond fitness center I became very spoiled with what I expect out of a gym. Xtreme fitness has been the only gym in the area that has meet my expectation of a great place to workout. While they don't have some of the features bigger gyms have (pool, rock wall, etc...), which is to be expected for the size of the facility. What they do have is quality equipment, a pleasant atmosphere to workout in, and a community dedicated to fitness. If you're looking for a smaller gym where you can get a good workout and not have a million people around you then Xtreme fitness is a great option!

I’m so happy I found Kaman’s Gym in Lexington, SC! I’ve tried other fitness centers in the area, and this one is by far the best. The new facility is spotless and equipped with top-of-the-line training equipment—some of which are rare finds. What I love most is that it’s never too crowded, so I can easily access the machines without waiting. The owner is incredibly friendly and goes out of his way to make everyone feel welcome. Whether you’re into weightlifting, cardio, or just starting your fitness journey, Kaman’s Gym has everything you need. If you’re looking for the best gym in Lexington, this Is the place!

I’ve been training at Kaman’s gym for quite some time now and I must say I’m impressed with the quality of the gym and personal training. Kaman seriously packs in your moneys worth in each session. I’ve have noticed some very positive changes in my life since starting here. Don’t hesitate to give this gym a shot!

Kaman has a true gift for connecting with clients and providing top notch personal training services. He tailors a customized food and workout plan for each client that fits their specific lifestyle and encourages consistency over perfection. Consistency and encouragement is where I’ve seen a true change in my fitness journey. Highly recommend for personal training.

I’ve been working with Kaman for about 3 months and would highly recommend him to anyone, no matter what your fitness experience level is. He is super flexible with scheduling and definitely packs in your money’s worth in each session. He does a great job of walking you through every exercise in a way that’s easy to understand and making you feel comfortable throughout your session. I’ve definitely seen/felt positive changes in myself since I started going to him and would absolutely give him a chance if you’re thinking about it!

I had never used a Personal Trainer before coming to Kaman's. His workouts are always well prepared, challenging, and provide a holistic approach to strength training. In our first session, Kaman asked what specific goals I have for our time, and he has really delivered on providing varied workouts to improve in those areas. During workout sessions, Kaman is always upbeat, positive, and keeps meticulous notes to gauge progress. As a beginner, I always appreciate how Kaman begins each workout by showing me exactly how to do the exercise, emphasizing exactly what muscle(s) we're working on, and (in a very kind way) not letting me do reps incorrectly. He is also well-versed in nutrition and diet planning, and is always ready to answer any questions in those areas. Highly recommend Kaman, especially if you're like me and haven't used a Personal Trainer before.

Ok look. I'm one of those people who HATES going to the gym. I do. I'm an introvert who masquerades as a friendly person. I'm a bigger lady. Im awkward. HOWEVER. I absolutely LOVE THIS GYM. the staff are caring and knowledgeable. I do the group fitness classes 3 times a week with a lifting/cardio day as well. I have little baby muscles peeking out and have lost 6 inches off of my waist. IN TWO MONTHS(9 weeks tomorrow). So I leave you with this. IF YOU MUST GYM, DO IT AT THIS ONE.

Initially, I was hesitant to join since I’m not really a gym person, but the staff have been very supportive, especially Landon, who made sure I stayed on track to reach my goals. I’m always busy with work and had trouble finding time for the gym, but Anytime Fitness gives me the flexibility to fit workouts into my schedule. Additionally, if I missed a group training session, the coaches would check in on me and make sure I stayed motivated and got back on track.

I've been a member of Anytime Fitness for a while now, and I couldn't be happier with my experience! The gym is always clean, well-maintained, and equipped with everything you need for a great workout. One of the highlights for me has been the small group training classes. The trainers are knowledgeable, motivating, and really pay attention to each person in the group. It feels like you get personal attention while still benefiting from the energy of a group workout. I’ve seen amazing results and have learned a lot about proper form and fitness techniques. The atmosphere is always positive and welcoming, making it a place I genuinely look forward to going to. Highly recommend!"

Anytime Fitness has been incredible! The gym is always clean, well-equipped, and offers 24/7 access, making it perfect for any schedule. The group training sessions stand out, led by enthusiastic trainers who motivate everyone to push their limits. The supportive community atmosphere makes workouts enjoyable and keeps members coming back for more. For anyone looking for a gym that combines flexibility with great group training sessions, Anytime Fitness is the top choice!

I do not recommend this location. I didn't listen to my gut feeling and I ignored the red flags. I learned a very important lesson. Let's see how long this review will be visible. The others have vanished from public view, so I deleted them. Do better!!!
