Best Gyms with Resistance Machines near Vancouver, Washington

First experience with Anytime. Gotta say that the gym itself is good, they’ve got heavy bag in the mobility room too, and most of the machines operate just fine. Staff seemed friendly as well. My issue is with the somewhat shady business practice. You’re charged an additional startup fee and whatnot, which is typical. But I was double charged. I noticed it a week later, and was reimbursed. Glad I noticed it! Eventually I had to cancel my membership because I was moving out of town. After what I thought was a successful cancellation, I was charged a further 2 times. (Which was $38 bi-weekly, really expensive for what you’re getting). Didn’t noticed those because of the holidays. Finally did this morning and was able to clear it up. My point in writing this is to be careful and pay attention. Anytime fitness relies on you forgetting to go through all the hoops they want, in order to truly cancel. I do not think that this is the staffs fault. I blame Anytime Fitness’ business model.

Me & my wife visited this location once while we were out in Portland for the weekend. The facility is a decent facility compared to the AF locations in the metro area we live in. The use of space was good, but the bathrooms could use better lighting, especially for those who actually need to use the shower portion of the bathrooms. The gym was clean though. They had equipment that not every AF location has. You do have to pay to park though, unless you visit on a Sunday, which we luckily did.

There this new guy ( a.k.a. New Year’s resolutions) who inhabits 4-5 pieces of equipment at one time . I’ve been coming here for a year and loved the place, between 3-6 AM depending on when I get off work. Now it’s no fun being at this gym. This guy is making it hard and miserable!! 2 pieces at a time I understand but 5 is ridiculous.

Hidden Gem of a gym! This place is the best! The staff is great but super chill. All body types, ages and genders are well represented. The locker rooms are individual and unisex. The equipment is incredibly maintained and the whole gym is sparkling clean! The team members are very friendly if you need them and don't bother you when you don't. ALSO on the weekends the farmers market is is right outside the gym across from Esther Short Park. Its the best hack in Vancouver to hit the gym then grab fresh produce from local farmers and a smoothie from the smoothie cart just out the front door! Seriously the best gym in town.

My experience with Anytime Fitness was initially fine, but things went downhill when I tried to use my membership at a different location. Beforehand, I specifically spoke with the team to confirm there wouldn’t be any issues. However, from the very first day, I was unable to access the other gym. Despite calling for support, the problem wasn’t resolved, and it’s now been almost a month. The staff failed to follow up on my issue as promised. They said they would email the other location to find a solution, but nothing ever came of it. This lack of communication and accountability has been extremely frustrating. If you’re looking for a gym where you can seamlessly use your membership at multiple locations or expect good customer service, I would strongly advise against joining Anytime Fitness.

I had gone through months of ER visits, muscle movement therapy, acupuncture, and chiropractic care for sciatic piriformis. I got it to the point I wasn’t in pain daily, but I could still feel it every day. It stayed at this level for six months. A month after starting weight lifting and HIIT classes at Anytime Fitness, I barely felt any pain. I added Muay Thai classes and I not only don’t have pain anymore, I barely even feel that it’s there. Patrick is an awesome trainer. He meets you where you’re at, encourages you and pushes you to raise your own bar. The whole staff is friendly. The gym is always clean and never overly crowded. I love it here.

Location. Location. Location. On the corner of Andresen Rd. & NE 63rd St. on the Safeway side. This gym has a lot to offer. Exercise machines, free weights, open space to stretch, and group classes. The best part is this Evolt scan that reads more than just BMI or how much you weight. They sell supplements and a variety of beverages such as protein drinks or pre-workout. This is more than just a gym. The owners really want the best for every member and make an attempt to know you as a person to help you in your fitness journey. They will even join in on a HIIT class. The staff/trainers are engaging and knowledgeable.

This is my first experience belonging to a gym. I love it here! It is convenient , close to my home and open all hours. It is always well lit, a good temperature . It is not a large gym but it has all the equipment I need. The owners snd staff are fantastic! The classes are amazing!. They offer small group and team training classes that really push you. I always feel energized afterwards. I have nothing but good things to say about this gym!

Such a beautiful and clean gym. Owners are extremely nice! Kara is super sweet and kind and I enjoyed how engaged she was during my consultation. Definitely a 10/10!!

Great location! Very nice gym, clean, well equipped, with a friendly staff. Had a great conversation with Kara about setting up a program to meet my goals.

Great experience. Kelly Watkins is an awesome 5 star trainer and coach . Seems like all the staff here are quite good. Easily the best money you will spend in 2025 . Place is clean , organized, and not unreasonably priced . Drama free and not always so packed full of people 24 x 7 that you can't access the equipment you prefer. Spread the good word .

I have been goign to this gym for over 2+ years now. The trainers they have here are some amazing people who really know their stuff and love what they do. Depending on the time you want to workout. I would recommend either in the morning, mid afternoon or if your a night owl like myself come late at night so the gym won't be packed. If your here at night the gal (Kayla) who run the front desk does a terrific job. And this gym has everything you will need. So sign up today!!

The staff will hunt you down on the floor to make small talk about being a new member. Felt very intrusive and violating. It’s already hard enough to get to the gym and now the staff makes me feel uncomfortable. Great!

I enjoy the convenient location for me at a decent price point with hours that fit my schedule. They also offer some great classes and instructors (yoga for me). The staff have been great!

Really great place to be working out, plenty of gym equipment so there's a variety, I think it's a pretty reasonable price compared to other gyms, and you have 3 different options for plans to choose from which is nice, I do wish all locations had saunas and all of the amenities though. But I signed up for peak results and the options to go to a bunch of classes has been really nice.

It is absolutely way to loud at this place. We all running from our problems already at the gym. Don’t make me DEAF too. At least offer ear plugs for the ear assault. I see why everyone has noise canceling at your facility. Did you say something I’m sorry I can’t hear you anymore.

I’ve been coming to this gym for well over a year now and have not had any bad experiences. The staff are friendly, the gym is always clean, and (since I go in the mornings) I don’t have to worry about it being too overly crowded inside or have to fight for machines. I appreciate that there is a sauna to sit in as well. If you’re thinking about checking out a gym, I’d say Gold’s is a great option!

The fact that you are not allowed to cancel your membership because they have to first APPROVE IT, otherwise, you are attached to their gym is insane! If I simply don't want to use their facilities because I don't like their equipments, I should not have an excuse to leave. The worst part it's that the whole process for them to approve my request of cancelation is taking months and in the meantime they keep charging me! If you can avoid this place, do it! There are way better gyms with reasonable policies.

The only gym in Vancouver I will stay loyal to. I love how everyone takes fitness serious. It’s a great place to find an accountability partner, good energy and motivation.

Decent gym but a bad exit experience. Tried well ahead of the monthly charge to cancel my membership and was repeatedly told to “go do it on the website”. Went to the website and there was no option to do so. Big headache to deal with at the end and got charged for an extra month which was the whole point of what I originally wanted to avoid. These big franchise gyms make it so easy to get in but not to exit.

Solid place. Plenty of specialty equipment for powerlifting and strongman. Plenty of platforms, racks, kilo plates, specialty barbells, and strongman implements. There’s even a setup for Olympic lifting. It isn’t pretty, but what it lacks in esthetics it more than makes up for being a very well-equipped gym. 24/7/365 access. With people ranging from competitive bodybuilders and strength athletes to total beginners, there’s room for anybody on their lifting journey.

WOW! This place has got eeeverything! If you're serious about getting in the best shape of your life, this is the place. AND, the first visit is always FREE. Why wouldn't someone give this place a try? I'm in from out of town. I travel all over the country. Hardcore Barbell is the best gym I've been to in my travels. I'd certainly drop my membership at home and join this place if it was anywhere near my home. Seriously, anything "lifting related", they have it! McGlashen Stones? Are you kidding me?!?! Too cool. I do the same ole workouts all the time. There would always be something new, interesting, and, more importantly, challenging to do here. Great vibe. Loved it. 5 stars isn't enough.

Rad gym, rad people. There is so much in the way of equipment, and I love the vibe of everyone there. It has a lot of great stuff for powerlifting, strongman, and bodybuilding. I especially love the turf area with the sleds! The owner is also amazing and opened his doors to hosting our Special Olympics team, without batting an eye! Craig is knowledgeable and loves to spread that knowledge to everyone.

Great gym! Jake is a great trainer and nice to work with. I've been looking for a strength training gym, not crossfit, and this gym was exactly what I wanted. Lots of equipment and space.

Fantastic atmosphere, and was spoiled for choice on how to abuse myself today. Completely old school gym vibes without the toxicity from the old school.
