Visiting from USA, I was looking for a good weight-lifting gym to workout in during my vacation in…read moreCopenhagen. This place was the best gym out of the ~12 I've been to (in the states) over the last few years. The equipment was all very high quality, with multiple stations of the typical stuff -- benches, deadlift platforms, squat racks, etc. There were also a wide variety of machines, many of which I've rarely, if at all, seen before. Again, all were great and modern quality. There's a long turf area, with everything you could imagine as far as cross-training gear near said turf. Essentially just a huge variety and amount of very modern equipment. In my experience, gyms either have quality OR variety. This place has both. The employee at the front desk (who I later learned was one of the owners) was very friendly, and especially welcoming when I mentioned that I was new in town. As he made me a banana + protein shake after my workout (which is also an amazing perk -- delicious with a bunch of options), he gave me helpful suggestions for things to do in town. I will definitely be going back!

"There is no perfect gym." This is what I have said about every gym I have gone to, prior to…read morevisiting Vesterbronx. Now, Vesterbronx has raised my expectations for gyms. It is THE PERFECT GYM! That means a lot to me, as someone who has visited many gyms around the world, always trying to find the perfect one. Vesterbronx is friendly to powerlifters, weightlifters, CrossFitters, Strongman, bodybuilders, and multi-sport athletes alike. It is located in a very trendy area in Copenhagen called Vesterbro. There are a lot of restaurants around. The closest metro station, Forum, is about a 20 minute walk away, but there are buses which pick up much closer to the gym. The gym is on the 2nd floor which you can climb up to using the staircase or use the elevator. When you enter, you will be greeted by someone who is manning the coffee / espresso / protein shake café. Do note that this gym is cash only. So if you want to purchase a t-shirt, walk-in for a day pass, or purchase a food or café item, you will need to have some Danish Krone on you. The gym itself is clean and filled with everything a serious athlete could possibly need. The gym is equipped with many speciality bars (an SSB squat bar, football bar, log press, Eleiko weightlifting bars, a trap bar, and fat bars) and at least 5 power racks, 2 combination racks, and several competition benches with spotting platforms. There are many power bars including Ohio Power Bars and Eleiko Power Bars. Here is some more equipment this awesome gym has: chains, bands of all tensions, TRX, row machines, GHR, cable machines, full dumbbell stack, rings, ropes, reverse hyper, hyperextension, sissy squat, kettlebells, a turf, prowler sleds, plenty of machines, and a POMMEL HORSE (I thought that was so cool)! So you can come here to get a coffee, lounge, eat, relax, and train. They even have an "Arnold Lounge" which is a bodybuilding room that feels like an Arnold Schwarzenegger man cave. What a great environment. And not only that, there were a lot of strong people in there. I love training in an environment where others are pushing themselves really hard. It makes you push yourself harder. Finally, the staff were nothing short of wonderful. I got to meet René who actually let my brother borrow his shorts (he wasn't planning to train). How awesome! If I lived in Copenhagen, this would absolutely be my home gym.

People that like to workout, you are in luck. I'm 24 and…read morehave been working out for 7 years. This place is definitely worth the money. You can buy 1 day, 3 day or 1 week passes. 1 day = 99 DKK and 3 day is 150 DKK. That's 3 days for roughly 20 bucks. Being that a one day a golds gym back in the US is $10, this is a fair price. Let's talk layout. There are all the cardio machines (except for a stair master) Crossfit: they have 4 racks and plenty of bumper plates. (2.5, 5, 10, 15, 20, 25 kg) (they have a bucket of chalk as well) Kettle bells (ranging from 8kg to 40 kg. 40kg is 88lbs...so they had you covered there) They have boxes (ranging: 20, 24, 30 inches) Freestanding squat racks. [[ALL OF THE STUFF IS ELEIKO]] Small grass area with a sled so you can push weights. Weighted wall balls from 4-9kg Ample wall space for handstand push-ups. Jump ropes as well!! TRX machines as well Machines: Angles leg press and hack squat machine Flat bench, incline bench 3 full cable machines Free weights from 4kg to 40kg Preacher bars There is a ton more stuff but I feel weird walking through the gym. Aside from the gym, lockers are available for people...just bring your own lock. They have showers at your convenience, but just make sure to bring a towel. There are no real water fountains here, so you have to fill up your bottle in the bathroom. Just be aware of that. Beyond that... There are snacks and protein shakes up at the front so you can get you swoll on. Finally you can access wifi in the gym through the hostel above it called The Generator. Happy lifting!

My wife and I were visiting Copenhagen for a few days and bought two-day passes for 120DK/person…read more (I believe they also offer one-day and three-day passes). This is a very modern, clean gym with ample free weights and cardio machines. There are also two large multipurpose areas: one that primarily revolves around TRX bands, and another that includes squat racks, plyo boxes, kettlebells, and a weight sled with astro turf track! You can bring your own lock to use the lockers in the locker rooms; towels can be rented for 15DK. The staff was very friendly and helpful. One thing that struck me as odd is that there are no water fountains anywhere - not even in the locker room. However, you can use the sink faucet to fill up your water bottle. Nevertheless, we really loved this gym and would definitely return in the future.

These days, Fresh Fitness is morphing with Fitness World and I am very excited to see what happens…read moreto this centre then. But for now, here's my review of the Fresh Fitness version of the gym. Out of the Fresh Fitness centres I have visited in Copenhagen (this one, Vesterbro, Amager, Købmagergade and Nørrebro), I think this one is my favorite. It has the most space to move around in, it's clean and the staff is super friendly and helpful. It also has the cleanest machines I've seen in Fresh Fitness as of yet. Big plus! Fresh Fitness is a large chain of exercise centres, where you can get fit "or die trying" for 149-199 DKK per month. The last prise includes access to classes, ranging from Body Pump and Crossfit to Body Balance and "Stram op!". There's something for everyone here. They also have a wide selection of virtual classes, which are basically classes with bad music and a trainer on a video. Kinda like working out at home in front of your tv in the 80's, I imagine. The classes being held is mostly Les Mills, so they follow well thought out programs and the trainers seem well educated within these classes. Some correct you if you do something wrong, others will not. The classes at Østerbro seem to be less popular than in other Fresh Fitness centres, so there's space and equipment for everyone. This also means that more of the trainer's attention is on you, something which can be a good thing. And an exhausting thing. All in all, I think Fresh Fitness Østerbo is a very decent and affordable fitness centre!

This was my first out-of-USA crossfit experience, so I was probably expecting something different…read more I tried to facebook message them to ask about dropping in, and didn't get a reply until the day after I went...they said I posted to the wrong page. I came about 15 minutes before class and Coach Mateus was friendly and collected my 100 krones. Nobody warmed up before class, which is very unusual to me. Everyone just sat on the bench, and at 9 AM, everyone went on the floor and started the mobility workout. Every time I've visited an out of town box In the states, the coaches introduce you as a visitor. This didn't happen. Coach did translate the WODs from Dansk, as I had no idea what we were doing. We had a partner WOD, and my partner, Satch, was very nice and great to workout with. The WOD was challenging, and Mateus gave me useful feedback on my technique. It's a very cool box, though, with white tile walls, in an old slaughterhouse. It's a short walk from the Central Railway Station too, though I walked from Christianhavn, which took about 30 minutes.

Finally...as long as I have been living in CPH (6 months) I haven't been able to undestand why I…read morecan't find a decent gym with les mills/spinning classes to go to. Don't get me wrong, I am an extremely happy crossfitter, and believe that Crossfit Copenhagen is THE place for a crossfitter, but I do miss spinning and cardio training and was happy to find that FitnessDK was just the place that I was looking for :-) The staff in the Lyngby center is friendly and always smiling. I miss personal training though, maybe not as common here as in Sweden?

Summary: 3.5 stars rounding up to 4, because of the convenient location. Great classes. A little…read morecrowded after work. Lockers have a lot of supplies for ladies. Either buy and bring water, as I didn't see any water fountains. The atmosphere: This is a nicer gym, like an equinox in the US and even has cute work out gear and cycling shoes for sale. People are there for fitness, so I would go no matter what shape you are in. The Crowd: The girls were the type of fit attractive that made me feel like I needed to continue to work out harder and keep up. They all managed to sweat and look great, something definitely to strive for. I did not notice the guys quite the same way, but I did not notice them in a negative way. The equipment: They have a pretty reasonable selection of equipment for its location. It's not the largest space I've seen for a gym and they filled it pretty well. Despite a wall of treadmills, they did run out. Lots of free weights, benches, you'll have most of what you could think of here. Amenities: I can't speak for the men's locker, but the ladies - while it can get a little messy and wet - has a lot to offer. It has dry and wet sauna. The sinks have hair dryers, curling irons, and flat irons, showers, the lockers are the larger 1 on top 1 on bottom and are more modern. In front of the classes, there are small lockers if you don't want to use the locker room. Bring Your Own: They do not have towels at this location. In addition would recommend you bring money or your own liquids. The store does offer coconut water, protein drinks and more. As a NYer I found the pricing just fine and liked the brands. If you're more budget conscious, there is a grocery store on the corner. Classes: They really have quite a lot of classes starting from 6:30/7am until later in the evening. I wish they had more classes on the weekend or had later hours, but I suspect Copenhagen has too much work life balance to find people who would open so late. The Zumba class I took was great. The instructor had a great vibe and managed to keep an eye on all the newbies. classes are 60 min long.

Conveniently located close to the main station. It's connected to the Radisson meaning that hotel…read moreguests can use it for free. They have the basic equipment for weightlifting, but a very limited set of weight plates, and some miss the rubber plates so the weight isn't what it's supposed to be. The bars don't have the weight printed on them which is a hassle and they only have a limited set of the softer weights so it makes warm up for eg. deadlift difficult. So all in all, it's basic but it works.
