Cute little community gym. Good rates and conveniently located near the Glen Park BART…read more They only have a few machines and stations to lift, so at times it was a bit difficult to get a machine before the pandemic at peak times. When they reopened during the pandemic the owner was really good at setting policies and making us feel comfortable returning to the gym. We booked workouts at both the Glen Park and Bernal locations and they were always clean.

Go elsewhere. The trainer I was assigned was ridiculously difficult to schedule with. Just wouldn't…read morereturn my multiple texts. It shouldn't be this difficult or frustrating to work with a trainer. The owner somewhat blamed me for not communicating better (?). The whole thing was so odd. Find a different gym. Love the idea of going to the neighborhood gym, but so not worth it.

Last Saturday, I brought my 3 year old son into the women's locker room to use the bathroom…read more There's a vanity area where women get ready, however there was an older man just sitting there, watching the women get ready, completely naked. I went over to the front desk and told them there was a naked man in the women's locker room just sitting there, watching everyone and he responded that they are legally not allowed to remove him. Please educate me because this doesn't seem right. I told them I usually let my 11 year old daughter go to the bathroom herself and I don't feel like it's safe and yet, YMCA did nothing. I was at the YMCA because my daughter had a game. After her game, I checked the women's locker room (about an hour after I took my son to the bathroom) and the naked man was still there, sitting there and putting lotion on his body. This is not okay. Please be careful everyone, especially those with children.

Extremely disappointed by the accessibility practices here. A YMCA towel truck was parked and…read moreunloading large crates of towels directly in the designated handicap parking space. We waited and politely asked them to move so we could park, but they refused. When we brought this to the attention of YMCA staff, they defended the truck and dismissed our concerns. Accessible parking spaces are legally restricted exclusively to vehicles displaying a valid disabled person placard, and standard delivery vehicles are prohibited from using them. Keeping these spots clear for qualified users is a fundamental accessibility requirement. Since the YMCA staff refused to address this, I plan on reporting this location's vehicle code and ADA compliance violations to the proper local officials.

Remodel FOR THE WIN! I almost don't want to leave this review because people should experience the…read moresame awe and wonder I got to yesterday at the reopening, but this place deserves all the stars. I have been a member here for 8+ years. I check in between 4-5x / week. Not only is the place IMMACULATE from literally the freshly painted ceiling to the new floors but they now offer elite equipment and body building machines from brands like Skelecore and Nautilus. They also still have a good amount of the previous hoist machines. Even with all the new equipment the place somehow feels bigger. The spacing is very well done and the flow from entry to the floor is well organized. In addition to the absolutely beautiful cleaning and maintenance, ALL machines are now in working order. There are new hip thrust machines, really nice new machines for back and chest, and the stand out is the epic leg day palace. What was once the basketball court has been converted into a literally haven of RACKS! If you have ever hit this gym during rush hour on a Tuesday you know getting a rack was sometimes a 30-45 minute wait. No more my friends! Racks on racks on racks. They also got a couple new leg presses and tons of new accessory machines. This gym has everything I personally need to hit all body parts and cardio for my split. The weights are varied. There are squat racks and platforms for training Olympic lifts as well as racks with safety cages. There are dumbbells up to 125lbs, cables, treadmills, stair masters, ellipticals and bikes. The group X room is open except during classes. I've tried a few classes here my favorite is Zumba with Maritza. I usually just check the App for the schedule. The pool area is basic and pretty much still the same except a lot cleaner now. There's a sauna and a steam room and a two lane pool. The bathrooms are as clean as you would expect a busy gym bathroom to be. And ten times cleaner than before. A lot of the staff have been here for years and years which speaks volumes. Everyone I have spoken to is friendly and helpful. Shout out to Salde and Sandra who are the best. The manager Francisco has been here since I can remember, is always kind and is very friendly. A couple years ago a better deal than I had been paying for came up and Francisco suggested I let my current membership expire or however it works and I got the yearly for a better price. He is always looking out for members and does his best to hold the ones who don't pick up after themselves accountable. Now that this place is spotless, it will mean that people who workout here MUST take care of the space better! I totally think it's possible but I'm also prepared to be that girl asking you to put your weights back pls. PARKING is easy if you don't go during peak rush hours. Overall the remodel took this gym from a 2/10 to a 10/10 but don't let me convince you until you see for yourself.

The employees are stellar - helpful, friendly, kind, etc. Francisco goes above and beyond to keep…read morethe place going, and the good vibes there I feel start with him and his infectious charm, caring, and humor. Jay in maintence is the hardest working person I have ever met, so kind and helpful. He hustles to keep the broken and malfunctioning equipment and wet area working and is much appreciate by us members. Lana has been extremely helpful as well. The renovations were extremely lackluster. Members were misled or outright lied to about what changes would be made to the gym and wet area. Construction, including jackhammering is still going on, we were told the project would take less than a month. I have videos of the noise reverberating through the wet area and breaking decibel levels for construction codes for San Francisco. The wet area is neglected to a dangerous and unhealthy level still. They claimed they "deep cleaned" it. The disabled lift for the pool and jacuzzi have bed been busted and malfunctioning or completely useless since I started there almost a year ago. They were to be replaced and were not! I have gotten stuck in the pool several times while it glitched. Once recently it broke completely. Thankfully my husband was there, and went and asked for Jay who managed to get it functioning and get me out. I wrote corporate, no answer. The entire building is not up to ADA gym codes and standards. There are loose railing, slippery dirty stairs and railings, mold growing from the spitters who can't follow basic hygiene rules even with a sign right where they usually spit under the lift chair. Then they fling water everywhere after spitting or snorting, and my wheelchair will not drive through the puddles. It is incredible dangerous. The locker room has no disabled lockers, and the one shower stall is not up to code for wheelchair users. None of the doors are up to code and have damaged my wheelchair several times. They refused to fix the broken women's locker room disabled stall's loose then broken toilet seat from September 2025 when I was first injured on it until May 2026 during the renovations. I was moderately injured the 5th time it slipped and one side fell into the toilet and I slipped off into the wall. There are uncovered screws sticking out of the wall connected to the stall next to it that have also cut me twice, and damaged my backpack. Do better, please! Communication there is dismal. No warning or planned closures, changes to schedules, etc. Yesterday the swim school was there when they are not on the schedule. Photos attached. In the summer we can barely use the pool. They have also showed up unannounced when the Potrero locations pool was closed, and allowed to hold classes without authorization displacing members. The worst part is upset members who try to swim in the lanes for the school or refuse to get out of the pool during swim class time, and they often scare the children or harass the swim school employees who are just doing their jobs! This happened yesterday, a man with flippers soaked a young child and the instructor by coming in their lane and splashing them intentionally. That area is chaos incarnate with no semblance of gym or pool etiquette.

I've been training at Strength Camp SF for a few weeks now and the experience has been spectacular…read more I started with their 6-week challenge. For all the reasons below I have decided to officially continue as a member! The first thing you notice when you walk in is how clean it is. Unlike other gyms the facilities are always spotless and there are no bad odors. That is highly appreciated. The environment is extremely welcoming and the people are very friendly. Additionally they have a great variety of equipment and exercises. This makes the workouts dynamic and complete. The best part is that there are always 2 coaches per class. They are constantly monitoring your posture and ready to give you tips. This makes you feel very safe while training. The schedule flexibility is another huge plus since they offer classes Monday through Friday from 6:00 a.m. to 7:00 p.m. This makes it easy to fit into any routine. Kobe has been my primary coach and he has been great. We've even had the chance to discuss my nutrition plan. However due to my schedule I've also trained with the other coaches (Lisa, Jesiah, Jeremy, Richard, and Patrick) and everyone is top-notch. Highly recommended!

Fitness 19 has its pros and cons. I was surprised that this location did not have locker rooms,…read morejust restrooms and maybe a changing room. They have small lockers just outside of the restrooms, so do not plan on bringing anything to shower or a giant duffel bag full of personal items. Evening crowd was surprisingly overwhelming. a lot of teens and young adults who work out in groups of 3-4, often hogging the machines and free weights. However, after my first experience coming in here at 6:30pm, I decided to come early in the morning (6am), and the experience was so much more pleasant!! The machines are clean, only about 30 people in the gym, and I had access to everything before I start my day at work. So far, so good.

Last year on Thanksgiving I had lower back injury that put me out of the gym for about a month or…read moreso. That was my first serious injury and I knew it was a bit of a wake up call and I had to prioritize my fitness and health. I contacted Fitness SF to get a membership and information on a trainer that specialized in getting back to it after an injury. After I signed up they assigned Albert as my trainer. Albert from day one explained the approach he would take to help build me back up after this injury. Albert put together a good plan that we have stuck to for the past few months. The results speak for themselves after training with him for almost three months now. He helped me tidy up my diet as well and I have gained 5lbs of muscle and lost 3lbs of fat. I feel stronger than I have in a while and my back is feeling 100%. While I had to do the work to get there, Albert was the X factor in the progress I have made. If you're lucky enough to have Albert as your trainer, expect to work hard and get real results!

No frills, no nonsense gym that has everything you need to get a good workout in…read more After moving back to San Francisco in the middle of last year I was looking for a gym that was more local/ in my neighborhood that I could walk to rather than taking public transit to another part of the city. That's when I came across the Sunset Gym this past December. I started my membership with a week long pass and eventually converted it to a monthly membership. (The payment for the week pass went into my first month of membership) Pricing wise this place is a very reasonable compared to the bigger chains (i.e Fitness SF), but admittedly you are also restricted to one location. For me though, that's not a problem as I wanted a neighborhood gym more than anything. The gym itself is great - it's old school (think OG Gold's Gym style). Downstairs has plenty of free weights and a good selection of machines. Upstairs has a dedicated Cardio area, a spot for stretching, as well as additional free-weights and an outdoor area. Staff I've interacted with so far have been wonderful. Very glad to have found a great gym close by to where I live

Definitely a transit-first or walk-from-your-home-type gym, 9th and Irving is not known for its parking (though it IS known for it's ever-present MTA carts zipping around). Love the towels, the multiple bathrooms and showers, the fans everywhere, and the small outdoor area on the second floor.
