Best Gyms with Functional Training Equipment near Bellingham, Washington

I love this gym! I’ve been going here for a few years now and they are always buying new equipment and improving the space. Lots of equipment, I rarely have to wait for something to open up. I love that they don’t force you into contracts and you can easily cancel anytime and they have drop in available as well if you just want to try it out or are here from out of town. The owners, Dani and Kyle and the rest of the staff are always so friendly. I also train with Kyle and he is a fantastic trainer as well!

Bellingham’s premier fitness facility. This gym has everything ANY type of lifter needs. Any equipment you could think of - they have it. And even if it’s peak time of the day like 5pm, you’ll still have enough equipment to use without running out of options. The hours: 24 hours. So it will fit anyone’s schedule. They have security cameras. The staff: friendly, accommodating and always helpful. The owners Kyle and Dani are always available when questions about the gym need to be addressed. Ben, Dave, and the entire staff are always friendly and around to help out. Parking: adequate for the amount of foot traffic and secure. Amenities: Infrared sauna, shower rooms and ADA bathrooms. Membership: flexible, month to month and reasonable for the amount of equipment you have access to.

Incredible gym . The selection of machines they have , including the great variety of accessory exercises like hip thrust machines and reverse hyper is great! They even have a strongman section with things like farmers walk device (which I can’t lift ) and stones, and their dumbbells go up to 125 pounds . There is a sled run too. In addition to all that the staff is great !

Pretty serious gym. Lots of equipment, mostly in very good shape. (A few benches need re-foam-and-cover-ing.) 24 hour access once you've joined. There are even Atlas stones and other Strongman equipment in the back. Pricing is higher than other places and it's a bit out of my way, but I am going to stick with it for at least a couple of months while the cheaper places are extremely busy...

Excellent gym! I was visiting the area for a couple weeks, and was looking for a gym to keep my strength training workouts on track. I am so happy that I found Training Grounds - it is a rare gym - a place with a vast amount of equipment but also an all-are-welcome vibe. People are friendly, but also let you have your space to workout. Unlike many gyms, there is a good mix of men and women working out - all are welcome!

I couldn’t be happier to have this as my gym! By far the best anytime fitness I’ve ever been to. The equipment is all up to date and extensive allowing for all different types of workouts. The staff are incredibly kind and helpful, it’s such a positive community. As a woman I always feel safe, comfortable, strong and secure in this gym due to the community and culture of inclusion. The owner, Quan, is awesome. The trainers are knowledgeable and thoughtful. It’s also a place where you can workout alone or with friends and they have fun events throughout the year to keep the community connected!

Visited this Anytime Fitness for the first time yesterday - gym was easy to use and well outfitted with equipment. All the staff and trainers I spoke to, including the owner, were incredibly kind, respectful, and welcoming. Super friendly people and I felt very comfortable working out here. Sometimes gyms can be intimidating spaces, especially for women, but I felt completely at home here and will absolutely return. Thank you for making your gym such a positive experience & atmosphere for people of all skill levels!

Truly the best gym out there. The staff is kind and supportive, it is a well maintained space, and the members are friendly and respectful. I have had awesome experiences and conversations with the Owner Quan and my trainer Lauren. I couldn’t recommend this place more!

My friends convinced me to join a few summers ago and I haven’t looked back since. Truly the best gym community I’ve been a part of. Gym is kept very clean, 24/7 access for members, personal training, workshops for all the compound lifts, fitness/nutrition consultations, any equipment you could want, and everyone here is very nice.

The truly inspired owner of the AF on Fairhaven Parkway has achieved a rare synergy of management and staff motivation that puts this gym, already benefiting from a highly regarded franchise network, into a class of it own. Beyond the general atmosphere’s of respect and appreciation of its members, The real difference can be best experienced in the team workouts. Here knowledgeable and talented trainers ply their trade with a level of ingenuity and enthusiasm that after 7 months of membership continues to keep me reaching for superlatives. If your New Years resolution is to get fit, be inspired and meet nice people, you will literally find no better option in Bellingham than Anytime Fitness on Fairhaven Pkwy.

This is a great club and earned the top spot on my favorite list (and I’ve had 4 memberships at once at various gyms)! If you like clean equipment that always works - this is the place for you. Tennis, biking classes, TRX, cardio tennis clinics, weights, cardio and a fireplace to boot! The staff are super friendly and I wave to the owner every morning when they arrive at 6:30am to bike. It’s also affordable!!! One of the things I also love is that you scheduled your workout times online which ensures safety by having social distance. Everyone is safe and always wear a mask. Wiping down the equipment is a breeze and lots of hand sanitizer to use. What are you waiting for?

There is a reason this spot is ranked one of the top gyms in Bellingham. They have very thoughtfully created a perfect spot for working out. Awesome stations with every piece of equipment you’d need and a great area to be more social as well with multiple types of machines and cardio equipment. Oh and I guess they have tennis courts as well 😅

The only indoor tennis club in Bellingham and they charge a $500 (FIVE HUNDRED) initial fee to be able to use it. Definitely not accessible for any casual players, or anyone in my tax bracket. Really disappointed.

I work out here 3/4 times a week and it's always a great experience. A great gym with two large rooms full of well-maintained equipment, a friendly and helpful staff, and none of that annoying 'gym bro' nonsense that makes so many gyms terrible to work out in. Also, several awesome tennis courts, and a bunch of classes being offered regularly. Best gym in and around Bellingham by far!

BTTC is has a lot to offer for fitness and the staff welcome you by name. The spinning classes have good bikes and instructors. I missed spinning and am so happy to be back on a spinning bike for a morning workout! Consider coming back! The 7am class needs more more people to have that energy boost we all want from a class. There is plenty of ventilation and sanitizing between classes. In general, the club does a great job of remaining on the Covid-cautious side of things.

We went to Life Force for the premiere series finals. The gym is one of the biggest I've been to. The staff was nice and the event ran relatively smooth from what I remember. The viewing angles could be better and I wish they told ppl to quiet down during the walk through but other than that it was a good comp. The atmosphere felt like a finals and not a normal Qualifier.

Top notch ninja gym! Our 6 year old daughter had a wonderful experience here. The facility is huge, quality equipment, incredibly clean, and well taken care of. Our daughter attended their week long summer camp and had a great time. Came home all smiles! We’ll be looking for some options during the school year next. Staff and owners are friendly, organized, and professional. Highly recommend. 10/10 experience and 12/10 for cleanliness.

We brought the kids here to play and ended up trying the courses with them! A little more difficult for our 5 year old but we all had a good time! The staff was friendly and helpful!

Need to burn off some steam? Let the kids romp or join in for some ninja fun! Very family oriented for people of all ages and skill levels! The only thing lacking is adult beverages but thats ok, you can’t always have it all! This is a also a perfect place for birthday parties. They have private rooms you can rent for parties, and they keep it very structured which is nice because they do the wrangling for you! When it is time to gather everyone for birthday cake time and snacks, they announce it over the PA and get everyone back together. And when time is up for the party, they also announce it, which makes for an easy exit when the fun is over!

What an awesome ninja gym in the beautiful state of Washington! Becca and Jadyn set and ran a challenging, but fun competition. The gym is filled with new obstacles that all ninjas with different skill sets would love to play on. We hope to be back to visit the gym again. Best wishes.

If I could give you zero stars I would. I’d had a membership for a couple years but moved out of the range of a convenient location so decided to cancel in August. Not only did I have to pay September which I begrudgingly accepted. They did not cancel my membership and so I was charged three times on October. I called again to cancel to be told by Nicole that it would be resolved only to have a sixty five dollar charge appear the next day. Somehow a gym membership I was told was canceled on August has now billed me $140 for a month of non service. Do not do business with them. There are better more convenient alternatives elsewhere.

This has been a wonderful environment to workout! I really appreciate the 1:1 training services, and the running club on Thursdays is a great way to supplement my workout with a social experience! Great vibes. Great people. Feel very welcomed.

The staff members, Nicole and Jordan, were informative and very knowledgeable. Never did I feel like I couldn’t ask a question and they were able to actively listen. They were both exceptionally supportive and encouraging. I look forward to coming back for my next appointment. Cory, my trainer is exceptionally knowledgeable and because he listens to me and ask the right questions, he is able to assess what exercises would benefit me. He encourages me to improve and is always professional, supportive and kind.

Anytime Fitness sure fits it name. Every time I visit the gym I always am greeted with friendliness and enthusiasm. Any questions I have are always answered in with much information that is so beneficial. The staff are all professional and are very supportive in any assistance needed. So anytime I am there I can be assured I will be assisted if I need anything. Denise V

We’ve been going a bit over a month now and are really enjoying it! The flexibility of 24 hours is so nice and there’s a good variety of equipment to use to achieve your goals. All the staff we’ve encountered so far are super friendly and our feedback is taking seriously when we have any concerns. Big shout out to Audrey they are there nearly every morning during the week and so unbelievably kind and welcoming we love getting to say hello and having a quick chat! Thank you all!

Great gym. Clean and organized. Has everything I needed and more. Plenty of cardio, freeweights and machines. With plenty of area with the mats to do routines. The staff was very friendly and happy to answer any questions. 24 hour access is a big plus.

Words that come to mind… Solid, no pressure, clean, friendly knowledgeable trainers, manager is awesome, great location (parking lot feels safe at night), everything needed to hit new years goals, I recommend to my friends and family.

I have been with Anytime Fitness since August 2014 and have had nothing but great experiences with the staff and trainers. The amount of care given to an individual person in a part of the service provided and incredible. Trainers are professional and put their ALL into the training they provide.

AF Fitness Barkley is simply the best. If you are nervous about joining a gym in anyway, this is the spot for you. The gym has everything you possibly need and is clean. They constantly keep it fresh with new equipment. All the trainers and staff are super approachable, knowledgeable and are a fun goofy bunch. I highly recommend small group. They are challenging workouts, but gentle on your spirit. They adjust the movement for any injuries and strength while supporting you to meet your fitness goals. I can't say enough good things about this training team. They are flexible and supportive. For the folks that thrive under game theory, they have multiple ways to engage in friendly competition.

Barkley Anytime Fitness has been an outstanding fitness center for me. The atmosphere is welcoming, and the staff, including Charley Fraser, is incredibly supportive. Charley's motivation and encouragement have been a key part of my fitness journey. The facility is exceptionally clean, which makes my visits pleasant and worry-free. Overall, I highly recommend Barkley Anytime Fitness to anyone looking for a fantastic fitness experience. Feel free to use my name as a reference to spread the peace and happiness
