Quality, thoughtful programming, constructive coaching and a community that makes you feel welcome from day 1.

My first personal training experience and I couldn't be more pleased! The trainers at PFF are…read morewonderful, well educated on the human body and legitimately concerned for your well being. They take very good care to ensure my safety, and teach proper form, all while pushing me to achieve what I never thought possible. They take time to get to know your current fitness level and build a plan around your specific needs. I've grown much stronger in the few months that I've been going here and never once did they push me to do something that I wasn't able to accomplish. I learned to trust that they will never ask me to do something that I'm not capable of achieving. They have a studio in Exton as well. Both facilities are private, clean and well equipped. All of my sessions have been private 1 on 1 in the phoenixville location. I highly recommend PFF to everyone after hearing them say something like 'wow, have you been working out?' Just call and make an appointment, it's totally worth it.

Hybrid is an ideal gym if you are looking for personal training results. Period…read more The place has an urban, industrial feel to it and all of the weight-lifting equipment you could possibly need for your workouts. If you are looking for row upon row of treadmills and elipticals, this is not your place. Additionally, they have a studio where they conduct different classes (e.g. boot camp, TRX, barbell, hybrid defense, etc.) throughout the week with some serious boxing equipment recently added too. I've been doing personal training here for a few months now and the thing to keep in mind is that for all of the dumbbells, kettles, barbells and bands you see that could be scary for the uninitiated, the trainers are VERY down to earth, knowledgeable, good guys. This is not a gymnasium full of meatheads, I promise you. You may not know how to use the equipment yourself, but they do, and they know how to teach you to use it to generate the results you're striving for in your workouts. The place is great, but the people make it. I can absolutely see why they keep being named 'Best Personal Training' by the Montco Happening list. High recommended!

Parking lot is available which is a plus, and 24/7 key fob access makes access a breeze. Staff/fellow patrons are respectful and the place is generally clean/organized.

If you're like me, you have been unhappy that you had to stop working out back in April/May when…read morethe Sporting Club closed due to the PA government mandate. I have been a member at this gym since the '80's. I have spent the last seven years using the XFORCE machines and even though I had to stop, Izvestia maintained most of my muscle mass. I returned to the gym three weeks ago today and I felt like I was back in my happy mental state of mind. No worries whatsoever about catching the coronavirus as the gym has a plastic shield around the reception area, every machine gets wiped down after every use and I was completely safe as everyone wears masks. Bring your own water bottle. Go back if you are missing your workouts as it's safe. I'm 78 and absolutely not afraid. Hope to see you there. Bonnie

PIT is one of the most intense workouts you will find in this area. Each class is unique and…read morechallenges you unlike any other. I have been with PIT since 2013 and nothing compares to this work out. It doesn't come easy and each class will make you find your mental toughness. There are typically 13-17 stations which include tire flips (who the hell doesn't feel bad-ass flipping tires?), kettle bell swings, pull ups, mountain climbers etc. You are at each of those stations for one minute the first round-after each minute they call everyone into the middle (aka the PIT) and you either do push-ups, burpees (yes they suck but so what) or some other awesome shit and then you move to the next station. After you have completed all stations there is a 2-3 minute rest and you do it all over again but each station is 30 seconds and then again they call some awesome shit for us to all do. Then you get to come back and do it again the next day! I promise you if you give it a try you won't be disappointed. The trainers will push you to get your reps in and want to see you succeed. They do not yell or curse (we do that to them) at their clients, and they treat us with respect and create a sense of TEAM in the gym. No matter if your goals are personal- PIT will help you lift heavier, run farther, go harder, set tough goals and then crush them! Progress will come just SHOW UP and DON'T GIVE UP! See you at PIT!!

I've done it all -- from traditional gyms like LA Fitness and Philly Sports Clubs to boutique spots…read morelike SoulCycle -- but The Pit is on another level. What I love is that it's a full hour of pure workout. You want to stretch? Do that before or after. This hour is all about moving. It's full-body -- think sledgehammers, burpees, mountain climbers, lunges, ski ergs, and tire flips. Every muscle is working. The workout is station-based, so if you hate burpees, don't worry -- you won't be stuck doing them for long. You can go at your own pace, so don't be intimidated. But if you're a workout junkie, it's incredibly effective. Your body and your heart will thank you for it.

The schedule is flexible, and the workouts are customized to help you get stronger and fitter while focusing on proper form and avoiding injuries. Since the gym caters to adults 45 and older, the training isn't only about strength, it also includes mobility, balance, and the kinds of movements that help you feel better in everyday life. I've been going three times a week for about six weeks, and I can already feel a big difference in my strength and endurance. Bill, Tim, Alivia, and the rest of the trainers are knowledgeable, attentive, and encouraging. They make sure you're doing each exercise correctly and adjust things when needed. They even have a stretch therapist on-site, which is a great bonus. I'm so glad I found Motivate Gym and would absolutely recommend it!

Classes are small, coaching is individualized, and very welcoming. (I am remote and stream into the classes). It is the kind of place where a beginner would be able to come in and learn a ton and start a fitness journey or someone with a ton of experience can really build strength. I personally really enjoy having the gym app where I can log my personal scores (each class has 2-4 workouts that you score) and then seeing workouts repeat over time and improving my score (the workouts are well organized and there are gym benchmarks that more regularly repeat; I have worked out at other style gyms where workouts were logged but never repeated and I didn't get to see my own improvement). Anyways, it is well worth checking out.

They've got more bouldering options than I've seen in one gym which is nice. They have a lot of different routes that focus on different skills. They even have a ninja warrior climbing area. There's also a variety of areas good for kids and a private room for birthday parties. Their facility is spread across to buildings. And the only downside is you have to walk outside to explore them both, but even that didn't have a huge impact on e joying the experience

The right side must have 50' of top rope climbing running the 200' length of the building. Left side has bathrooms, lounge, exercise area and a yoga studio. Bouldering is the upper floor on the left. Overall, it is well organized by color, and easy to follow. There is not a plethora of tape on the wall . Each climb also has the difficulty level posted with a corresponding color. This gym needs 2 feet things to make it 5 stars: a good cleaning of the thick dust covering everything (walls, mats, floor, items for sale, etc) and deodorizing of the foot smell.
