Best Gyms with Resistance Machines near Everett, Washington

This is my third or fourth time joining Planet Fitness at the Everett location in my hometown. When I returned a few months ago, I was disappointed to see the poor maintenance of cleanliness, particularly in the men’s showers and locker room. However, I’m happy to report that things have significantly improved in the past month, and the facility is now spotlessly clean. I genuinely enjoy this place and look forward to continuing to visit a gym that makes me feel great and refreshed afterward.

The gym itself is perfect and fits all my needs. The staff is thoughtful and very kind. The area around and the parking lot not as much. Lots of syringes on the floor and a sketchy feeling. Despite the gym being open 24 hours some days, I’d not risk going later than 8pm, unless there is some more security around.

Bathrooms have been a complete disgusting hellscape. Paper towels are consistently out in multiple locations. A lot of the machines need to be maintained but haven’t been. This gym used to be very well maintained and clean! No clue what happened.

Same thing as what many others have said. Paper towels are usually always out at multiple cleaning stations which is really annoying. The women's locker room and bathroom is seriously so filthy almost always. I like this location because it's close and convenient for me, but I'm seriously considering driving further to another one....we shouldn't be told that we just need to speak to a manager to have these issues fixed, they just really shouldn't be issues in the first place.

The cleanest gym I've ever been to. I feel comfortable and the "no judgment environment", is the best ! !! I used to get intimidated looking to get a membership before in other facilities until PLANET FITNESS came into the neighborhood. I was sold on day one of my visit there just to check it out. The staff is great, friendly, helpful, and patient to anyone I see every time I'm there. The price was very reasonable. I recommend this place. You won't be disappointed.

One of the most welcoming gyms I've ever been to. I switched from planet fitness and I already love it so much. Dave, Jay, and Jenny have been so welcoming. Love how big this gym is, the equipment is amazing, and everyone else is really welcoming. So happy to have started working out here!

No nonsense gym experience: Emerald City offers the best deal in the area. Unlike other gyms here (LA Fitness especially), they are not overbooked with customers. You can actually get parking and get to your weights/machines without too much hassle. The layout also helps you prioritize and get to what you need. Plus the staff and customers are super friendly.

Kevin was really great, showed me some great insight on lifting movements, nutrition overview and was very welcoming. Switched here recently and was super impressed. The facilities are newly updated, have everything I need for lifting and they have a great fitness program you can opt into that is challenging and fun. Overall the community is super welcoming. Thomas, Tony, Dave and others are always helpful, friendly and genuinely want to help you achieve your fitness goals. They also have a great kids club, heated pool and other extra amenities. Would recommend definitely.

Hello! I have been going to this gym for 5-6 months. It is a gym like no other, it feels like a community. Jenny was the first person I got in touch with, her energy is so inviting, and talking to her feels refreshing she understands me and my goals. She also talks about what her journey was and how it's going it feels inspiring to hear. She recommended a few hiking adventures to go to, and I loved them both. She gives me tangible goals, cheers me on, and gives me insightful information for the coming month ahead. With her help, I am getting closer to my goals; our monthly check-ins are something I look forward to. I have always felt welcomed here! J is someone I love seeing I have been shy to say hi, but he has a way with people that lets you feel open. The gym has everything you can ask for and has multiple stations so that you don't feel overwhelmed by crowds or rush hour. The only things I could request are bands for stretching in the yoga room. Thanks to everyone I have met in a short amount of time. Thanks for making me feel welcome and for sharing a friendly smile.

I've never had a gym experience like this! The community culture here is really solid. It's a place for everyone of any background and skill level with their fitness knowledge. I love how friendly and helpful the staff is and how dedicated they are to helping you reach your goals - shout out to Melanie!

Yesterday was my first time at HOTWORX, and it was an incredible experience! Ashley went above and beyond to make me feel welcome and comfortable from the moment I walked through the door. Her cheerful personality and positive energy were contagious, and she was so helpful in guiding me through everything I needed to know as a first-time visitor. Ashley took the time to answer all my questions, explain the benefits of the workouts, and ensure I felt prepared and excited for the session. Her professionalism and warmth truly made a lasting impression, and I can’t thank her enough for making my first visit so enjoyable. I highly recommend HOTWORX, especially with such an amazing team member like Ashley. I’m already looking forward to coming back and continuing my fitness journey here! 10/10 experience!

Hotworx is amazing! The infrared heat and variety of classes make for an efficient, sweat-filled workout. Clean facilities, the friendliest and always welcoming staff (photo proof :) , and 24/7 access—highly recommend!

I can't say enough amazing things about Hotworx! I've been here a little over 2 weeks and I see my body changing already and I feel so good everyday. I was addicted after the first class, for sure. The staff and owner are so helpful, sweet and personable. Come try, you won't be disappointed!

This place is amazing!! I was a member of the YMCA before this and didn’t enjoy working out in an overcrowded gym everyday after work. Now I can book my session and not worry about feeling overwhelmed by so many people around me! Mealani is so sweet and signed us up and we have been coming 5 days a week! Clean, very friendly staff, and they do fun community events. The first class is free so I recommend trying it out ❤️

Absolutely great place to work out. Currently I use the one in Stanwood. Great owners. But the concept is great. I DONT need a personal trainer. Just come in and follow the screen! Love it!

Absolutely LOVE this gym. They recently got new equipment in that most gyms don’t have! V -squat, pendulum squat, chest supported row, t-bar row, hip thrust machine, and plenty more. Friendly staff, nice and clean, and a good atmosphere all around.

I've been a member for about four years and typically visit 4-5 days a week. While I enjoy coming here, I’ve noticed a significant decline in cleanliness at this location. I occasionally visit other AF locations in Lake Stevens and Snohomish, even during odd-hours, and the facilities are consistently tidy. Paper towels and disinfectant are readily available, bathrooms are always stocked with supplies and clean as a whistle, floors are vacuumed, equipment is neatly put in place and everything is well-maintained. Unfortunately, this is no longer the case at my home location, where cleanliness has noticeably dropped. I hope the staff will take notice and restore the high standards that this location used to have.

"Anytime" is not true. This gym operates only when staff is present when the fob reader is down, which has now happened 3 times during my early morning workouts. The only reason I pay for this gym is the convenience of working out during the early mornings and on my own schedule. At least tell people when you expect to fix the problem. Taking longer than a few business days to get your entry fixed is not right to members. The gym also lacks some equipment, but generally is OK when it comes to plates IF you come at off peak hours. Aside from this, they really need to fix their access issues.

This AF has a good set up, the equipment is organized and there is a flow. Unfortunately this gym has NO PLATES, there is so much equipment and no plates. We brought this to the attention of the onsite manager, and it didn’t seem like this was a priority. I am happy to update this review once this issue has been addressed. This gym has great equipment but NO PLATES. My suggestion… get a couple plate towers. They should be stationed near the machines and also next to squat racks. Unrelated, I wish there were more mirrors by the machines, like the Smith Machine and belt squat machine. I find them really useful for checking form!

I would give this place zero stars if I could. This anytime fitness is so disappointing. It is literally the dirtiest one I have ever seen. Mainly, I am referring to the bathrooms. You can tell they do not get cleaned very often. Soap dispensers are broken, no toilet seat liners, vent is THICK with dirt, shower curtain is moldy and torn, drain always has hair, toilet brush container nasty. Normally, one of the bathrooms are out of order You can tell they literally do not give AF here. I wanted to renew but now I am having second thoughts!
