Best Gyms with Free Weights near Sunnyvale, California

Not sure what all the hate is for, but I really enjoy coming here. I've never had any issues with the staff, in fact, they have all been incredibly nice and professional with me. Maybe the staff isn't the problem, if you have these problems everywhere you go... Sometimes the pool can be impossible to get in to, but you just have to learn what times are best and work around that. I prefer to go in to the mornings, so I really have any pick of the litter when it comes to equipment. I've been member for many years now, and don't see any reason to leave!

This is a review for Gabriel, The short white guy. Unfortunately, this visit was disappointing once again. I had hoped things might have improved over the past year, but that wasn’t the case. The same individual exhibited the same poor attitude as before. The only noticeable change is that he’s now working at a different location, but it seems no effort has been made to provide him with proper training or address his behavior.

I recently had an issue with locker at City Sports Sunnyvale, and I was incredibly impressed with the level of service I received from the staff. They were prompt, attentive, and went out of their way to ensure that my problem was resolved efficiently. Their friendly and professional demeanor made the experience stress-free. It’s clear that customer satisfaction is a top priority here. I highly recommend City Sports Sunnyvale not only for its great facilities but also for its exceptional staff. Thank you for all the help!!

it is a really disappointing experience! especially the trainer there. I decided to cancel my membership because of the unacceptable conduct of one of the trainers, Jonathon, at Sunnyvale City Sports. The trainer is misinterpreting my words and starting to blocking me and my friends working out at the gym after I refused sign up for his training package. I joined the gym after my friend, who is also a member, informed me that we could practice boxing mitt work together there. Shortly after signing up, I participated in a free training session with Jonathon. To my frustration, instead of focusing on the session, he spent over 25 minutes aggressively trying to sell me a personal training package. I firmly declined, explaining that I already train at another boxing gym and allocate a comparable budget for those sessions. However, things escalated further today when Jonathon interrupted my friend and me while we were practicing mitt work. He wrongly accused us of engaging in personal training. Despite our clear explanation that we were simply practicing together without any exchange of money, he accused us of lying, disrupted our workout, and then falsely flagged my account, claiming I was paying my friend for training. This claim appears to stem from a misinterpretation of a comment I made during last week’s training session, where I mentioned spending approximately $700 at another boxing gym. Jonathon wrongly assumed I was referring to payments made to my friend, which is entirely untrue. This behavior is not only highly unprofessional but also insulting. Jonathon’s actions have misrepresented my intentions, unjustly interfered with my ability to work out, and created a hostile and uncomfortable environment for me and my friend. I am extremely unhappy with how this situation has been handled, and it has left me questioning the level of respect and professionalism at Sunnyvale City Sports.

I enjoy coming here, but the cardio machines are constantly broken, and it takes them weeks or months to address it. For the amount I pay, I expect City Sports to provide working equipment at the very least. Also, the kids working the front desk likely have no idea about anything if you try to ask them any type of questions, so don’t bother 😭.

I started private coaching with Coach Donovan to address a shoulder and left elbow injury. From the first session, I was impressed by his professionalism and focus. Our initial meeting was an in-depth discussion about my fitness goals, which made me feel confident in booking 12 sessions. Coach Donovan tailored workouts to my injuries, emphasizing proper form, body strengthening, and natural body tension. As a beginner, this approach was crucial to avoid further injuries. He’s highly knowledgeable about anatomy and designed exercises to help me build strength safely. I even noticed improvements in alignment after just one session! Post-workout, he provided supplement recommendations (the watermelon flavor is a game-changer when mixed with warm water) and discussed future plans for catered diets, recovery, and at-home workouts. I’m excited to continue learning and progressing with his guidance. Highly recommend Coach Donovan for anyone looking for professional and effective coaching! Shout out to Coach Aaron and Coach Benjamin (sorry if i forgot your name bro, but the guy with the sick hat and long hair)

Coach Brian Kaho provided an excellent training experience, tailored to my goals and fitness level. His knowledge of various techniques and ability to motivate kept me engaged throughout the sessions. I appreciated his attention to form and injury prevention, which helped me build strength safely. Overall, I highly recommend his training for anyone looking to improve their fitness journey. Also, Autumn has done an excellent job managing the gym. Her professionalism and commitment to member satisfaction create a welcoming environment. Team at front desk is always available to help.

I loved training with Coach Brian here. He listened to my concerns and took our sessions at my pace, and now I have the knowledge and confidence to walk into the gym, do my own workouts, and try different exercises without hurting myself. It might not sound like much, but it really is hard to make a big lifestyle change like that without the right support, and Coach Brian was that for me. The other coaches and staff are nice, too! I look forward to seeing everyone when I'm there.

I recently worked with Coach Brian Koho as my personal trainer, and the experience was fantastic. As someone who didn't have much experience in the gym, I found Brian to be incredibly helpful, professional, and approachable. He took the time to teach me the basics of strength training and helped me build a workout routine tailored to my needs and goals. Highly recommend working with him if you're looking for a knowledgeable and supportive trainer

It’s a great experience. I have been trained with coach Brain Kaho for several months. He calculated the calories I need every and made a detailed workout plan. I trained with him twice every week and do homework myself. I lost about 30lbs in 3 weeks and in the meantime my strength grows as well!

I was a dedicated member of Crunch for over a year, but my experience was consistently negative. The equipment was frequently broken or in disrepair, making it difficult to get a proper workout. My first and last experience with personal training was a nightmare. The trainer (Lexi) was aggressive leading to a shoulder dislocation during my very first session. The gym's response to the incident was shockingly inadequate. It took them an excessive amount of time to locate a first aid kit and ice pack. I ended up needing an ambulance and was left to deal with the aftermath on my own. The gym has never reached out to me to apologize or offer any support. I've had to repeatedly contact them to resolve the issue, and the entire ordeal has been incredibly traumatic. I'm still undergoing physical therapy and dealing with the ongoing effects of my injury. While the gym membership may be affordable, it's simply not worth the risk. I strongly advise potential members to look elsewhere for a safe and reliable gym.

I like the location and the equipment seems well maintained. Adequate locker rooms. I wish they’d clean more and enforce the rule about users to wipe down their machines after using. Gets very busy during peak hours.

Today is the first day of my 3-day free trial. I arrived at 6:20pm, peak time, obviously. First impression: the space is huge (compared with my current gym, I plan to cancel my membership there because it’s too far away) , and full of people. You can barely find a spare machine. But overall my impression is pretty good: staff is nice and accommodating, restroom/locker room is clean, place is crowded but people are peaceful, and the Zumba class was fun. I forgot to bring my shampoo, happy to find they provide free shower amenities. I’m glad I took the trial. I was told that early morning and late evening are the best time with fewest people. Will come around 9pm tomorrow to see how it is. Update: my second free trial day. Arrived at 9pm-ish, the place is 60-70% full, which is pretty good. Easily found the machine I wanted to use. Left at 10:40pm, still , 10-15% of the facilities were in use. They close at 11pm. There are only 2 showers in women’s, but most people don’t shower here, so it’s ok. There’s no hair dryer there, so you need to bring your own if it’s necessary for you.

Although I rarely write reviews, I felt compelled to share my experience at Crunch Fitness in Sunnyvale, CA. From the moment I walked in, one staff member named Chloe made a lasting impression with her professionalism, emotional intelligence, and genuine dedication. Unfortunately, I had to ignore the other associates at the desk due to their inappropriate attitude and demeanor, which I knew from experience was best not to engage with. Despite this, the welcoming atmosphere and outstanding support from Chloe made the enrollment special, which I typically find expensive, worthwhile. Kudos to Chloe at Crunch Fitness for making a positive impact and fostering such a supportive environment. Your efforts truly make a difference, and I'm grateful for the experience.

Now a days they are in power saver mode. Air conditioning barely working. only 2 fans in entire gym. No exhaust system or not working, very dirty smell. Less fresh air reduces your performance by 50%.Very arrogant staff. Canceling membership. Not recommended. My suggestion to crunch. Increase the price but give good service. Equipment are maintained on time that's why one star.
