Best Gyms with Free Weights near Sacramento, California

Sadly, I would give this place 5 stars if I could but the people the gym serves are trashy. The employees are actually good but if you look around you it’s evident that there’s a societal issue. People on the side sleeping and doing drugs in plain view, people petty as hell about parking waiting to just start problems with their community, etc etc etc. it’s truly an audacity of south sac to have this reputation but it’s expected given the kind of people that live here. They’re ghetto because they want to be and they don’t even have the privilege of actually having nothing they just act ratchet out here. It’s truly a disgusting sight when you interact with the townsfolk. Even the women in the bathroom are gross— saying period every other word? Lmao. What a disgrace.

Bathrooms need to be cleaned better and more often . I don’t blame the staff . I wouldn’t touch it for what they get paid either . Pay the cleaners appropriately and they’ll perform appropriately. It’s not a job anyone wants to do , so pay it properly .

Inside... the place is clean. The staff is great. Machines always working. We go late at night usually because there are fewer people and more open machines. The night staff is great. Outside... the area is a bad area. Sketchy people, garbage, and security car always parked in a different spot in the parking lot but there is never anyone in the vehicle or anywhere to be found outside the car. It's a very bad area, Stockton and Fruitridge. But it's close to home and the Inside and staff bring us back.

I come to this location Sunday through Friday. Prior to Anthony leaving I expressed to him my concern with seeing the roaches in multiple locations he had good customer service hate to see him leave. I addressed the situation again this morning ( being I came across two roaches while working out)with the young lady at the counter with the black PF shirt on she is light skin I believe she may be biracial and she spoke to me as if I was telling a lie stating they clean and they don’t see roaches. As if I’m going to just make this up. This location is really going down hill with the customer service. You all need pest control weekly for the roach issue. Just cleaning is not going to solve the problem. This is not sanitary. Looks clean but they are definitely crawling around. Don’t sit your bags down you might bring them home with you. Just saying.

Love this gym. It’s affordable and clean. The black card benefits are worth it. The issue is the circuit is my favorite work out. I use the machine, steps, machine. The circuit goes in order 1, 2, 3 etc…. But people come sit on the machine and play on their phone for 10 -20 mins. The circuit is set up for you to finish in 30 minutes, but that is impossible. A few years ago I asked someone if they were done with the machine and she just started yelling me. No one from PF monitors this section and the sign is small so maybe people don’t know it’s a circuit. But it sucks that it is IMPOSSIBLE to finish the circuit here. Note: I had already spoke to several workers at the front desk on numerous occasions before posting this review. So the Owners comment is not helpful. So if you love the 30 minute circuit like I do, I would love to know if you know of another gym in which you can complete the circuit in 30 minutes rather than 90 minutes and people yelling at you.Thanks!

I really like this gym because they keep cleaning all the time it’s way better than planet fitness staff is polite Workout machines are also good.

I have nothing but good experiences here. The classes are amazing! Just 45 min work out and you’re done, no need to work out on regular equipment. However, the regular equipment and the green grass area is very straightforward. The sauna and the recovery areas great combination with your work out. It’s a must to finish it just across the board this location is amazing. Highly recommend.

I personally like the way the gym is spread out. Lots of room to work out with equipment or solo exercises. I also like the fact that the aerobic room is available if there are no classes taking place. I can't say enough about the professionalism of the manager she's an excellent example of great customer service she has a bright affect good team leader. I've observed her dealing with difficult customers in a very calm and effective manner as well as cleaning the gym, actually showing the new employees how to clean properly, leading by example. She's an attribute this company.

Good gym, well maintained and ample space. If I have to nit pick, a security person would be nice to help provide additional safety for us gym goers and our properties since it's in an area with plenty of interesting people loitering

Gym was always well maintained. Very friendly staff. Incredible equipment. In my 15 plus years going to the gym. Chose had been by far my favourite gym. Recently moved away so had to cancel my gym. After attending planet fitness now, it shows Chuze equipment and staff wise is leaps and bounds ahead of the competition at a fraction of the price.

Cool gym, a little hidden as there is no clear sign on the entrance door. You sign up and can access the gym, which is great. There was no staff, so I would not recommend it for beginner lifters to go by themselves as you might be the only one in the gym. Equipment wise they have everything you might need. Deadlift stations, squat stations, machines, cardio areas, stretching and mobility area, etc. There is also a fridge with beverages. All in all great gym for experienced lifters.

Great place, very clean, plenty of combo racks for powerlifters. There's two areas for stretching and strongman workouts and a great selection of accessory equipment. Membership is competitively priced and the atmosphere is very friendly. The owner Mike is frequently there and is very nice.

Power lifting tournament, and they had great BBQ chicken with amazing potato salad.

Best strength gym in Sacramento. Quality equipment for powerlifting but also sufficient machines for accessory work. 24 hrs with easy phone access and never too busy. Great

Amazing facility! Gym culture is outstanding and has all the equipment you need. Highly recommend, especially if you’re just starting out! Very friendly members that are happy to give tips on form or other things.

Update: JR called the next day and explained the error and took care of it. Very good. Charged my bank account 1029.00 today... i have not been here since dec of 2019.... nice.

I was going through mental depression. Hitting the bags 3 times a week helped me cope with the illness. It's a great gym. The staff are open to discussions and very open minded.

Awesome staff and great workouts. Love it there

Best gym ever. They have clases through out the day. And all the coaches make sure your workout is good.

Only offer a 1 day trial pass and we're pretty reluctant to do one-on-one training of any kind.
