Best Gyms with Locker Rooms With Showers near Bakersfield, California

I had a wonderful experience here. Loved the abundance of free weights and the owner is very knowledgeable

Can't beat $5 day pass and lots of vintage golden era equipment with good vibes.

Excellent gym hard core not for the weak you wanna get big come here

A small, quaint gym. Lost among the downtown buildings. Its been years since i came here at 14. It's been here forever and yet still thrives. Marc is a great and caring man who loves health and the ability to share it with others. They have all you will need and doesn't have that regular gym vibe

5 stars hand down. Old School gym clanging and banging weights. The Owner Mark has been training me for 2 yrs. I went from 175 to 206lb. Huge muscle gains. Mark Has been working with my injuries (Motorcycle Accident) to get me back to 100%. I’m in the best shape of my life . His training style is unmatched by anybody in Town. I can confidently say that I’m being trained by a Pro Body Builder & he has his Card to Prove It. Thanks Mark 🙏

I highly recommend this gym Tim is one of the best trainers out there he got me to get my body fat to a 20% he helping. Me build my muscle his workouts plans are the best they get your heart rate up they help you burn that fat and calories. He is a reasonable price than other trainers that try to take your money and not train you. He actually takes the time and pride in all his work .

I found Fit For Life gym while looking for a gym to go to in close proximity to home. I signed up not really knowing what to expect, but within 3 days found not only a great new place to workout but a great community of people as well. It’s a different workout then I’ve done in a while but is challenging and enjoyable. 6 weeks of a boot camp has turned into me being a long term customer. If your looking for a gym with kind people that will also push you to be a healthier/ stronger version of yourself Fit For Life gym is the spot!

Fit For Life will be part of my life forever! Do yourself a favor and TRY IT! This gym is not your average gym, which is one of the reasons I love it so much. It’s an upscale boutique style gym that is always clean providing excellent and well maintained equipment. You get what you pay for and here, you’re getting your money’s worth and then some! They are always at the cutting edge of fitness and Tim, the owner is full of a wealth of knowledge that he loves to share and teach. I love that the owner (Tim) is very involved and it is his expertise and high standards that makes his gym stand apart; just by talking to Tim for a few minutes, you can tell he’s very passionate about his training and gym and truly wants the best for all his clients. He truly cares that all his members reach their personal goals and will help any way possible. Just remember it takes two, he can teach, but you have to be willing to listen and try. His gym is so comforting and positive, you feel a sense of community and family there. Another fabulous thing about his gym is to just come as you are, I’ve never felt judged or self conscious because everyone is there just trying to better themselves. I tried boot camp which was great, but was not the accountability I personally need, so I moved onto private training lessons with Tim and have never looked back (or been happier)! It was the best decision in my fitness and health journey. The benefits are countless but I can say that he helped me gain confidence in just being in a gym and working out. I am beyond proud to say I feel comfortable working out with free weights by myself or dropping into a hotel gym and being able to get a workout in because of all the tools Tim has helped me acquire. Also, the workouts Tim creates are wonderful, challenging and deeply satisfying. You are never bored and he changed them up all the time. He has so much knowledge you can trust in him your form is correct and safe. My best advice is to trust his process because it’s a journey. I am so full of gratitude for all Tim’s help in creating a weekly work out routine as well as all the knowledge and guidance regarding nutrition. If I were to say he changed my life for the better, that would be an understatement. I have never felt so strong and confident in my workout. I also have never been so knowledgeable about nutrition and it’s just from what Tim has taught me. Personal training always seemed so expensive to me, but you can find ways to make it affordable whether it’s a semi-private lesson, or a few private sessions to teach you to work out on your own. It’s amazing how you can make slight changes in your life to accommodate personal training sessions. Call Fit for Life today and take the first step investing in your health and you won’t be disappointed. I LOVE Fight for Life and my personal trainings with Tim.

Fit for Life Gym has been a life changer for me. I have not only lost weight but am more toned, fit, and stronger than I’ve been in a long time. The classes are pre-set so you don’t have to decide what you want to do. I really like the total body work out and the variety each day brings. Tim and Brittany are great at showing you how to correctly perform each exercise and will modify it for your individual needs. I also like the attendees, everyone is really friendly and helpful to newcomers. Not going anywhere else.

If any of you have ever wanted to go to the gym, but have been scared or had anxiety for any reason, especially if those reasons have been that you might look dumb or be judged. I can confidently say that this place is for you. The energy is right here. I've been to a ton of gyms over the last few years, and this is the first time I've ever felt 100% comfortable. & it's important to feel comfortable when working out so you can actually see results & not get hurt! I think overall my favorite part of this gym is the cultural diversity of the people working out. Everyone is there for the same reason, & it’s fun to meet new people I with similar interests/goals. Also, the trainers & owner are really nice & helpful. They don't care if you ask 100 questions & that's a good feeling! 10/10 recommended. I LOVE FIT FOR LIFE !

Think I found out where all the coolest ppl in Bakersfield are hanging out! It’s def at Corey’s 9AM class. We did a HIIT cardio circuit that absolutely HUMBLED me. But everyone was so kind and encouraging and Corey helped a bunch correcting my form and showing me modifications when the second round proved to be too brutal lol. I feel like even just a month of this class would turn me into a beast. And I’d for sure do happy hour w everyone in that class. Great workout, great community. Thanks Corey!

I really like it, it's spacious with lots of equipment and a great room for massages if you pay 22.00 a month. What I really like is that they require you to wipe down the machines after each use which means no more sweaty dripping machines. They've also got signs posted throughout of this being a no grunt zone which is really nice. Nobody out there hollering and dropping weights all over the place. Just a nice place to have a good peaceful workout.

I absolutely love this gym and Devon is an amazing instructor, his workouts are always different and his attention to each individual person in class and their needs is beyond impressive!! I always look forward to 5 am class and enjoy the vibes Devon brings!!

Great venue to watch MMA. Hope there's more to come.

I recently had the pleasure of joining an extraordinary gym that truly stands out from the rest. This fitness haven is more than just a place to work out—it's a nurturing space that fosters a loving atmosphere and propels athletes to new heights with unwavering positivity. Let me share my experience with you. From the moment I stepped foot in this gym, I was greeted by a warm and inviting ambiance. The staff members exuded genuine care and enthusiasm, making me feel instantly at ease. They radiated a passion for fitness and a deep desire to support their members in achieving their goals. What truly sets this gym apart is its remarkable commitment to creating a positive environment. The fellow athletes, ranging from beginners to seasoned fitness enthusiasts, wholeheartedly embrace the spirit of camaraderie and encouragement. The sense of community here is unparalleled, as everyone genuinely wants to see each other succeed. It's incredible how a kind word or a smile from a fellow gym-goer can push you to give your all during a workout. The trainers at this gym are exceptional in their dedication and expertise. They take the time to understand your individual goals, strengths, and limitations, crafting personalized training plans that optimize your progress. But it's not just about the physical aspect; these trainers also focus on mental well-being, inspiring you to believe in yourself and go beyond your perceived limits. The gym's facilities are top-notch, with state-of-the-art equipment and a variety of classes that cater to different fitness preferences. Whether you prefer weightlifting, cardio, yoga, or group exercises, you'll find everything you need to challenge yourself and reach new milestones. Overall, my experience at this gym has been nothing short of transformative. The loving atmosphere, coupled with the relentless positive energy from both staff and fellow athletes, has propelled me to achieve goals I never thought possible. This is not just a gym; it's a sanctuary that nurtures your body, mind, and soul. If you're looking for a fitness haven that will not only help you reach your physical goals but also uplift your spirits and surround you with a supportive community, I wholeheartedly recommend this gym. Prepare to be embraced by love, encouragement, and the motivation to be the best version of yourself.

This gym keeps every section clean. From the main gym floor to even the bathrooms. Depending on the level of membership, the amenities are worth it. Weights, cable machines, classes, swimming, sauna, steam room, the recovery room with message machines, and their smoothie and shakes area. And for those with kids, check out their kids center.

Have been to this gym as a buddy with my friend's Max membership and by using a 1 week free trial on the app. I like the gym, the equipment, amenities and decided to pull the trigger and get the Max membership with Kids Club access so I can bring my kids to the gym when I work out. I walked in and said I wanted to join. Then I was directed to fill out my information on the app already on my phone. I wanted to use a credit card as my form of payment and told that I could. However I was told by the supervisor that I would be charged a $30 fee if I used a credit card as my form of payment. When I questioned this and why the app seemed to not allow me to move forward without banking info, the supervisor said the app wouldn't let me sign up without banking information in order to save me this $30 fee, and that if I insisted on using a card, she would have to create a whole new account for on their side, and to just go ahead and fill out my banking information anyway. This struck me as odd and I prefer to use my credit card for monthly expenses like gym memberships rather than my full blown banking information. I don't understand the $30 setup fee for using a credit card. Is this fee listed in the promo ads for $1 enrollment? Is this just an arbitrary penalty for using a card instead of my banking information because it's easier to pull money from bank accounts rather than charge credit cards? I was told by both the employees I spoke to that it was an option to use a card for my monthly dues, but only if i was ok with the extra hassle and an arbitrary up front fee of $30. This seems unfair. I came in to purchase the Max membership but walked out with nothing because no one was able to explain this to me. If it's supposedly an option to use a card, why are employees trained to simply insist/pressure you to give up your banking information? Frankly, I've been a member of a lot of gyms and this was weird to me, so I walked out.

I Like this gym and their amenities, but can the bathroom stalls be attended more frequently?. I have been coming here for about five months now and the toilets are consistently discussing. And I know it’s not because there isn’t someone to do it because I guarantee there is 2-4 workers hanging out in the front to greet people every day.

Alright...so this place has been open for almost 1 day. Go ahead and ignore 98% of the previous reviews as they have nothing to do with the actual facility... and are all about the LONG delay we all had (I signed up in May of 2022). The facility itself is beautiful. Obviously, it is very clean as it is new. The staff have also been friendly whenever I've asked questions. There are all types of workout equipment and areas. Barbell weights feel solid, and dumbbells go up to 100 lbs. There's a yoga room, meditation room, cinema room (yes, watch a movie while doing cardio), outside workout area, group exercise area. Bathrooms are very nice and showers are big! There are plenty of drinks choices, and it's not overly cold (like Planet Fitness that has all their giant fans turned on to keep their gyms at 50° or below 🙄). I'm definitely looking forward to using this gym and checking out the other ones around California in time.

Here to give 5/5 stars to combat everyone who decided to rate this place 1/5 before it even opened. How do you feel now? This place, especially for the price, is absolutely phenomenal. The facility is massive and whenever you think you’ve seen everything, there’s more. The cinema is no joke, the stereo system is on par with an actual theater experience. There’s SO MUCH equipment—gone are the days where I have to wait an hour to use one of the three benches that are functional (I’m looking at you PF). I can’t say too much about the pool yet since it won’t be open for another month but it looks super promising. Seeing as it was their first week opening, I didn’t expect too much from the smoothies, so I’ll give them a pass on that but excited to try other drinks on the menu. The staff almost remind me of the kind of employees you’d find working at an Apple store. Shout out to Matt for giving me an awesome tour and getting me hyped up to come in for my first workout session there. So excited to see this place grow and thrive.

Ima start off with saying this gym is the best gym in Bakersfield, hands down. I’ve been a member here for a while and I have never had a bad experience here. The BX Staff Team and Management are top tier when it comes to member services and hospitality. It’s feels like home here, I wouldn’t want to go anywhere else. They also have very good and clean equipment and sanitary bathrooms. I’ve been to a fair amount of gyms in my lifetime and by far BX is the best in my personal opinion. Signings up with them is an excellent choice and an easy process. The staff here are very informative and knowledgeable about the gym and workouts of all types. I love this place and I Know you will too.

I've been a member of this gym for a while now, and it has been a fantastic experience. From the moment you walk in, you're greeted with a friendly smile—special shoutout to Noah at the front desk, who is always helpful and welcoming. What's even more impressive is the management's dedication to meeting members' needs. For instance, when I mentioned wanting foam rollers, they quickly made sure to get them in. Highly recommend this gym! :)

Great, I always have an intense work out here. The environment allows me to not feel intimidated or rushed love coming to this gym!

Body Xchange Gym feels like home for fitness enthusiasts. It's not just about the equipment; it's the welcoming vibe and supportive staff that make every visit uplifting. Whether you're a newbie or a gym regular, you'll feel like part of the family here.

I really like this gym, the customer service is awesome and there is this guy who’s name is Noah who did a stupendous job signing me up

Love the Jacob’s ladder my best friend. I get on it 5 days a week when I am in town. The Gym front desk attendant Mis liberty always have that great smile every time I walk in .. She and all the staff are wonderful Mr. Juan , Mr Andrew and the entire staff.. Cleaning crews are always cleaning the machines.. love this gym

Best gym i have ever gone to. Great service, and great machines. Highly recommend going to the gym. The best service i have ever had is by Juan! He really showed me the whole gym and let me know everything i needed to know, and answered any questions i had to ask.

This is a great place to workout. The patronage great, staff is personable and the equipment keeps me in great shape. Their is a very friendly atmosphere here and I am glad I am a member.

The machines are well maintained, the people there are awesome, and the service from staff is incredible. This gym is an amazing gym to try out a bit of everything. They have a good amount of machines, free weights, and cardio equipment. The locker room is clean, and everything is functional. I'd give this gym a try especially if you're in the area. All the 1 star reviews are probably either trollers or just born haters.

I have tried other gyms in the area and always find myself back at this one. Good location for me, good equipment, and friendly staff.

This place is a Bakersfield treasure for people who want to lift. I don't hold a full time membership here anymore because I live way on the other side of town, but I get day passes here regularly to workout with friends that have memberships. From the moment you walk in you'll recognize something immediately: this gym is everything that commercial gyms are not. It is extremely well stocked and well organized (weights are always put away!). The cleaning towels are plentiful, high quality, and replaced regularly. There is a real vision about the place that makes it clear the owners actually care about the gym's usability (I love the labeled cable attachment wall). The gym culture is unmatched. I'm a hobbyist bodybuilder so once upon a time I was worried I'd be out of place, but I have been welcomed time and time again by the friendliest men and women lifters in town. Whether you're a powerlifter, Olympic lifter, bodybuilder, or anyone else who wants to work on themselves, you will have a place here and I can't recommend it enough.

Wife and I signed up yesterday (August 12th). We went to work out for the first time this morning (August 13th). The lights were not on and we had to walk around a few minutes before we could find the light switches in the dark. Once we got the lights on. We noticed that it was actually cooler outside than it was inside. Far too warm for me to be able to work out without passing out from the heat. None of the fans were on. I turned the light switches back off and we left without working out. I just got off the phone canceling our membership. We spent $120 for zero work outs and being a gym member for less than 24 hours.

I dropped in while traveling on business and couldn’t have asked for a better experience. Everyone is super friendly and the gym has everything you need for an amazing workout. It’s well-set up and very clean. I’ll definitely be back!

One of the few places I look forward to whenever I’m in Bakersfield. The gym has everything for weightlifting and accomplishimg your fitness goals. Unlike commercial gyms, they are pretty welcoming of all people wand have an unbeatable gym access… just make sure to rerack your weights and have a spotter on the squat rack. I highly recommend this place.

I've had a pleasant experience here. Staff is friendly and is also knowledgeable about working out. The owner and trainers have assisted me in understanding some of their specialized equipment. I always recommend this gym to everyone I know. Also, if you're into lifting competitions, this is definitely the place for you as they coach and host competitions there at the facility from time to time. Big thumbs up 👍

I wanted to check out this gym before committing to a membership, but they wouldn’t let me get a daily pass to try it out. It felt like they were more interested in getting me to sign up than actually letting me experience what they offer. It’s disappointing when a gym isn’t confident enough in their service to let potential members try it first. Thankfully, I found Chuze Fitness nearby, and they were the complete opposite. They were welcoming, let me try their facilities, and the equipment was top-notch. Chuze’s staff made me feel like they actually wanted me there and were proud of what they offered. If you’re looking for a new gym, I’d definitely recommend checking out Chuze Fitness instead!

The manager told me to move my Harley like he controls the parking and then told I could cancel my membership if I payed $150 on a month to month membership. The owner called me to resolve the issue and blew me off. And admitted he rides a Harley and would be able to park where the bike is safe. Really bad business.

I've never been treated with such disrespect from 2 employees located here I was told over the phone that I would be able to pick up the free gift cards for joining but as soon as I arrive at the location I was not only treated like if I didn't belong there but told that Thay just gave out the last one 🥲 I'm not sure what the heck it's for but it's free and it's not okay to tease people with false ads WORST PEOPLE EVER and to top it off I kindly ask if they could call the other locations to see if they have any but I was told to DO IT MY SELF I BELIEVE THEIR NAME'S ARE TRACE AND ELANE? WORST PEOPLE EVER

my experience definitely a great one as soon as I walked in the vibe was just welcoming and very uplifting iv been to two different body exchanges and this one has by far been the most welcoming experience so thank you to trey for the great experience

I love Body Xchange on Allen Rd! What makes this gym so special is the great community of fellow members and employees. We are truly a gym family. My favorite part of the workout is being greeted by Jay at the front counter. He always offers a friendly smile followed by encouraging tips for a great workout!! Thank you, Jay!!
