    Anytime Fitness - Cleanliness? The smell of ick and cringe! What's that in the corner?

    This location has to be the most friendly, and well maintained gym in the area. I moved to the…read moreMarin area several months ago and have hopped around gym to gym paying for day passes to check out the facilities and this one, by far, has all of them beat in variety of equipment, friendliness of staff, and cleanliness, and they even have a red light recovery room and massage recovery room! Make sure to ask for Trevor if you have any questions at all, I cannot attest enough to his industry knowledge, his professionalism, and general positive vibe.

    I think this will be the first review since they were closed from December 8 to December 22 for…read morerenovations. First off, this isn't my home gym. I only come to this one because of the location when I'm visiting family in the Bay Area. When you think of Sausalito, you think upscale, well-managed, personable, and impressionable. Not really the vibe I got at this Anytime Fitness center. You should have stayed closed until everything was cleaned up and ready for a grand re-opening. I came in the other night when it was pouring rain and, to be honest, I wasn't not really impressed with the new set-up compared to what it was before. When I first walked in, I was immediately met with the smell of sweat, some other funky stale odors, and just an overall feeling of cringe and ick. Let's just say I've been to better gyms that actually make a conscious effort to feel welcoming when you "badge in." The storage cubby area for personal items was overflowing with water bottles, sweaters/jackets, workout towels, and clothes balled up in the corner that have just been left there. Primary source of the smell, I think. No accountability, no apparent care for cleanliness. FAIL!!! A side office door with a "Redlight Sauna Therapy" sign next to it was off the hinges with boxes inside, in plain view, that I can only assume were left there from the recent renovation. Floor mats at the front entrance off to the side that weren't laid down and interconnected, just stacked one on top of the other. The color palette is bland and not energetic. Grey and White? Seriously? Stick with the primary brand and accent colors: Blurple, Purple, White, Red/Orange, and Green/Turquoise. You should know this! Where's the "Inspiration Wall Board" for members to write words of motivation for other members? The brick and mortar "Anytime Fitness" logo wall with supplements is also gone/missing. If this was meant to be a soft opening, you missed the mark entirely. I'm not Joey Swoll, but overall, I'd say "you need to do better." So what's changed, positively? There's a new gym set-up/floor plan from when I was here last year, 2024. The spin class / group training studio is no longer there and has been opened up to include 4 new squat racks, a cable pulley machine, and flat bench rack. On the other side, it's still very much the same with the mirrored wall and free weights as well as the purple turf training area with TRX bands and medicine balls. There are two new treadmills, I think. The track mat/belts feel a little flimsy and could use some tightening. The massage chair room is still there. 4 unisex restrooms, only one has a shower. I loved coming here before the renovation, but now, I'm not so sure. You have a lot to improve on and make better in order to make me ever reconsider coming back here.

    Ultimate Fitness has been a game changer for me as far as my fitness goals for turning around my…read moreosteoporosis. Diagnosed four years ago, I changed my diet and supplements and stepped up my exercise with walking and hiking. I was determined to turn my bone density around without medication. But two years into it, another DEXA scan and I wasn't doing enough, my osteoporosis got worse. I went to UFIT about 11 months ago, 2x a week, in addition to my walking, hiking, and nutrition refinement. I just got a new bone scan and my bone density is in the osteopenia range, not osteoporosis! This is a big win and I plan to keep progressing. My doctors now say no need for medication now. I highly recommend UFIT's program. Nina is great, as well as the other trainers. Their training is highly specialized, I have looked at other resources. Give Randy a call!

    The loss of muscle mass and strength as we age is insidious. It happens so slowly that we often…read moredon't even notice it. As a younger man, I had always considered resistance training to be more closely related to narcissism rather than overall health. However, that all began to change when my wife started going to Ultimate Fitness in Mill Valley and encouraged by her progress, I decided to give it a try. I had "resisted" at first, feeling that my 20-year yoga practice and two-mile daily walk were sufficient to keep me in shape. However, I am now a true believer in proprietor Randy Green's 30-minute, twice weekly resistance training regimen at Ultimate Fitness on Miller Avenue. With the support and encouragement of Randy and my personal trainer, Victoria, the results speak for themselves. Despite numerous breaks for vacations, COVID-19, various medical setbacks, including the diagnosis and treatment for an extremely rare blood cancer and a total hip replacement, I'm much stronger and healthier at 78 than I was at 69. I'm lifting more than twice what I was on all the 12 resistance exercises I do; for example going from bicep curls with 10-pound dumbbells to 20 pounders. I've gone from weighing 180 pounds on my 6-foot frame to 163 pounds with 18% body fat, and I no longer feel tired all of the time. I can do 20 push-ups but I'm still working on that elusive pull-up; gonna nail that sucker before I turn 80 dag nab it! So if you have been wondering about doing something like this but have been "resistant" yourself, give Randy a call (415-380-8033). I strongly encourage you to give it a try; you won't be disappointed by the results.
