I've been working out with Bryan Francis since the shutdown, so I was incredibly excited when he…read moreopened Vitality. From the very beginning, I knew it would be something special because Bryan has always had a passion for helping people and bringing them together. He's built so much more than a gym--he's created an amazing community. The coaches are outstanding, the workouts are challenging and fun, and everyone genuinely supports one another. No matter your fitness level, you'll feel welcomed and encouraged from day one. Vitality isn't just a gym--it's a family. That's what makes it such a special place, and it's all a reflection of the culture Bryan has created. I can't recommend Vitality enough!

After a couple weeks of procrastinating I finally took the time to check out a class at Vitality…read moreTraining Center and it was a great experience. You can tell Brian and the staff put a lot of thought into this place. Almost every single piece of equipment is brand new and purchased from a high quality brand like Rogue. The dumbbells, barbell, weight plates and kettlebell I used for the 5pm Tuesday upper body workout seemed to be in immaculate condition. I stupidly didn't use weight clips for a warmup bench set and for the first time in my life actually dropped plates on the floor because they were so smooth on the bar they slid off when I was slightly uneven. Don't be dumb like me! They have some unusual equipment like a couple rolling tank style push sleds for legs. I saw dumbells through 100lbs and enough 45lb plates to max out any standard barbell. Even some large trap bars. Definitely stop by this place and check out a class it's worth the membership. The official launch is coming up soon based on what the trainers told me.

The gym is amazing! Clean, variety of weights and equipment along with brand new Nordic track treadmills. The best part of all is the community! Su is such an amazing coach. The perfect amount of laughter, leadership, encouragement, and push to be your best. I've not only worked out consistently but started running again and joined Hyrox and DEKA events all with Su's support. It's the best here! And I absolutely love the women and friendships I have built!

I've been a member at The Vault Fitness for almost 2 years now, and I can honestly say it's one of…read morethe best decisions I've ever made for myself. From day one, it never felt intimidating - it felt like home. Coach Su has created something really special here. This isn't just a gym, it's a safe space for women to show up as they are, grow stronger, and support one another. She has the perfect balance of being incredibly supportive while also pushing you to be your best. She sees your potential even on the days you don't, and that kind of coaching is rare. The community is everything. The women here are uplifting, motivating, and genuinely root for each other. Whether you're just starting your fitness journey or looking to level up, you'll never feel alone. There's no judgment.. just encouragement, accountability, and a whole lot of strength being built together. If you're a woman looking for a gym where you can feel comfortable, challenged, and supported all at once, The Vault Fitness is it. I'm so grateful to be a part of this community and highly recommend it to anyone thinking about joining.

Body Tribe changed my body and the way I think about fitness. You can get a pretty good idea of…read moretheir general attitude by checking out their website http://physicalsubculture.com/, but of course everyone has their own unique experience and for me I cannot say enough good things about the style of exercise, philosophy and spirit of this gym. I was a fairly competitive athlete as a youth but after high school for me (and I imagine many young athletes like me), the focus on exercise really became weight loss because I wasn't playing a game or practicing for anything, and had never really been all that outdoorsy or athletic beyond softball. The only reason for me to do something physical became to lose weight / keep weight off. This mentality doesn't really work, or didn't really work for me, and I had not felt like I had my weight under control since high school. I think this mentality is ultimately problematic for a lot of reasons, but I think the biggest reason is that it is unsustainable. You burn out because you are not really enjoying what you are doing, and you are not connecting the physical exertion to anything more than a superficial goal. Body Tribe really changed my mentality and I feel like with the new perspective I have that I will never fall into an inactive rut again. I started going there when my friend Courtney became a training intern. I had been working out at 24 Hour Fitness a lot for about 3 months and had lost about 10 pounds by doing mainly cardio. I was feeling pretty happy with myself because I was being quite diligent and feeling good, even running a couple miles a week, but I knew I needed to step it up a notch. On my first workout at Body Tribe I was blown away by how different it was than any other workout I had done. Crossfit is a lot of plyometrics and activities that feel natural to actually working or doing manual labor. Now, that may not sound completely desirable but ultimately it makes more sense for building strength and working out all aspects of your body, rather than isolating one muscle. When you are done working out, you feel like you actually built something. I believe that "something" is your spirit. Everyone that works there is amazing, and they all have a different style. My body is completely different than it has ever been. I am strong enough to run 5 miles now, and went from a size 12 to a 6, not even losing that much weight but building muscle. More than anything though, I don't look at the gym as a chore anymore. I genuinely enjoy the challenges Body Tribe presents to me. If you have a New Year's Resolution to change your body or maybe your just curious, you should really check them out. They have really reasonable rates and terms, and lots of introductory workshops / new member orientations.

I've been searching for a gym to call my own since I've moved up here to Sac, and this place has…read morebeen more than I could ask for. If you're looking for a pure barbell training gym, this is your spot! I absolutely LOVE that they have an open gym membership, although I do highly recommend either joining their classes or getting paired with one of their trainers. I joined as an open gym member and decided to enhance my program by teaming up with a personal coach/trainer and I couldn't be happier. And if you can't do either of the above, they offer workshops on Saturdays to train you in various lifts. Formerly known as Body Tribe Fitness, this place now operates under the name Health Works. Don't fret, it still offers the same warm & inviting community atmosphere as before, along with your essential olympic / powerlifting equipment. This is a place for those who believe in strength conditioning and working towards overall wellness and fitness. Most people who attend this gym are well versed in the language of weight lifting, kinesthetics, and physiology, so it's safe to say that you will be in good hands if you enter as a novice. And although their open gym hours are not available in the early mornings and weekends, they are VERY accommodating of your schedule. So if you let one of the trainers know about your training needs, they will be more than happy to help you out. Hands-down the best gym, not only Midtown, but all of Sacramento!

What I love so much is that he teaches correct form and the workouts are functional so they have helped my mobility and me increasing strength for everyday life (no more being winded after a flight of stairs). He also helps tracking progress and gives tips on how to eat based on real life so you can not only maximize results but make lifestyle changes seamlessly. Steve's energy is great and everyone in the classes are fun to workout with. Picking class times is super easy and done right in his app. I can literally join any session time and know it's going to be a fire workout with great vibes all around. I am constantly evolving here and actually seeing results from the workouts!

The bathroom is huge and has a lot of amenities like a sauna, massage chairs, a cinema, and etc. I haven't found this gym to be very busy but I also go during odd hours.

Kinda disappointed that only a few months the price changed. I do wanna try their classes. I heard they were fun.

Walking into a great gym isn't just about the equipment--it's about the feeling you get the moment…read moreyou step inside, and this place absolutely delivers on that. From day one, what stood out the most wasn't just the machines or the layout, but the people. The staff here truly set the tone for everything, and they do an incredible job creating an environment that feels welcoming, supportive, and full of positive energy. The team is consistently friendly and approachable. Whether you're brand new and figuring things out or someone who's been training for years, they treat everyone with the same level of respect and attention. You never feel judged or out of place. If you have a question about a machine, need help with form, or just want a quick tip, they're always ready to help--and they do it with genuine enthusiasm, not like it's a chore. One thing that really stands out is how attentive and proactive the staff are. They're not just standing around--they're engaged, making sure the gym stays clean, organized, and running smoothly. Equipment is well-maintained, weights are re-racked, and everything feels taken care of. That level of detail makes a huge difference in the overall experience. The energy in this gym is on another level. It's the kind of place that motivates you the second you walk in. There's a strong, positive vibe that pushes you to do better, train harder, and stay consistent. You see people focused, working toward their goals, but also encouraging each other--it creates a powerful sense of community. Whether it's a busy peak hour or a quieter time of day, that good energy is always there. Another thing worth mentioning is how inclusive the environment feels. It doesn't matter your fitness level--everyone belongs here. Beginners feel comfortable starting their journey, and experienced lifters still get everything they need for a serious workout. That balance is hard to find, but this gym manages to do it effortlessly. Overall, this is more than just a place to work out--it's a place you actually look forward to going to. Between the friendly and helpful staff, the clean and well-maintained space, and the consistently great energy, it creates an experience that keeps you coming back. If you're looking for a gym where you feel supported, motivated, and welcomed every single time, this is definitely the spot.

I've been a member of this gym for years, and unfortunately I'm now seriously considering canceling…read moremy membership because of an issue that should have been very simple to resolve. For approximately two months, I have repeatedly raised concerns about the ventilation and fan settings in the HIIT Zone and the studios used for Zumba and cycling. These are intense, high-energy classes, yet the fans are running extremely slowly and appear to be set to pull the air upward rather than circulate it down into the workout area. During classes, the room becomes so uncomfortable that I often cannot make it through even half the class without feeling like I can't breathe properly or perform at my normal level. I spoke with staff members on three separate occasions and was told the issue would be addressed. I eventually spoke directly with the manager by phone and explained that I have a medical condition, including hypertension, and specifically asked whether the fan adjustment could be treated as an accommodation. I wasn't asking for anything complicated. I simply asked them to increase the fan speed during these intense classes or, since the fan controls are locked inside a cage, allow appropriate access so the fan could be increased during class and lowered afterward if energy cost was the concern. The manager told me that he would increase the fan speed immediately after our phone call. Unfortunately, nothing changed. What is most disappointing is that I have been trying to resolve this for about two months. I didn't immediately leave a negative review--I spoke to staff multiple times and then management because I genuinely wanted to give the gym an opportunity to fix the problem. I really hate the idea of leaving because Dom and Joy teach some of my favorite classes and they are excellent trainers. But paying for a membership when I cannot properly participate in the classes because of inadequate airflow doesn't make sense. At this point, I'm considering canceling my membership and finding a gym that takes members' concerns seriously, especially when someone has clearly explained that the issue affects a medical condition. After years of membership, I expected better communication and a reasonable effort to resolve something as simple as adjusting a fan. The 2 stars are for Dom and Joy
