A small gym that specializes in Olympic weightlifting. There's a small space that's used for a few…read morecrossfit classes. Great coaching. If you're looking for a laid back place to lift with minimal fees, you have to check this place out. There are about 10 platforms and plenty of bars and plates to go around. Everyone that works out here is friendly and helpful. It's a great community. They put on small local weightlifting meets throughout the year. Anyone can come to spectate.

I came here when visiting a friend in Philly and needed to train (especially since I was in peak…read moremonth of my program cycle aka lift heavy all day). The space is located right outside of a major bridge which was actually pretty cool and scenic. When I walked in, the space was huge and tall. I didn't see any rigs but it had all the essentials of a crossfit gym: barbells, rings, boxes, jump ropes, and fit people. Being a weightlifter, It was good to see they had some kilo plates lying around (those colorful red/blue/yellow/green plates). I didn't notice those plates until the end along with the olympic bars (that spin forever). Regardless, if you are trying to use a good bar, go to the far back left corner of the gym and you'll find these gems. I warmed up with some snatches with a regular bar and black rubber plates. Since they were in pounds, I couldn't count (aka was too lazy to convert) to kilos and almost hit a PR that day! Who knew being lazy to count would almost have me set a new goal. Luckily I came in with my friend who knew the coach and let me lift for free. All in All, if you are looking for general fitness and with welcoming coaches, I would highly recommend Fearless Athletics.

I've been coming to Fearless for a few years now and have nothing but great things to say about it!…read moreFearless is a Crossfit gym, but isn't intimidating or 'cult-like' like some of the other Crossfit gyms you hear about. The members and coaches are all awesome. The coaches are personable, well educated, value quality and safety, and really care about member satisfaction. The gym offers Crossfit classes, weightlifting classes, and Intensity classes (similar to a HIIT class). There are people of all shapes and sizes in every class so everyone fits in at Fearless. The price can be intimidating but it's well worth it if you attend classes regularly.

The gym was very easy to locate and has an awesome online site and easy access getting inside. I met Zack who let me in and got me signed in, showed me the gym and explained the rules. The gym was very classic and resembles what you imagine in your head as a true gym. No one was annoying with taking stupid videos or flexing in the mirror. Everyone was just working out and keeping to themselves. Location, customer service, and amenities were phenomenal. I will most certainly be back next time we pull in.

Whenever I do group classes I'm interested to see how the coaches/trainers focus on form and making sure that things are done correctly rather than fast or with heavy weight. Cherie was EXCELLENT.

I have always found it to be clean including the locker room. The management/staff has always been friendly. Unfortunately I had to send an email this evening to cancel my month to month membership as I am moving and leaving Philadelphia permanently. If you live and/or work in the city I highly recommend it here. Also the gym is conveniently located which is another nice feature.

Hello, I have been a member of this gym for over 20 years…read more Many times, I have told people EVERYWHERE that this is the best gym in the world because of it's variety and amount of equipment and space. I have left reviews on the internet to this effect. I would like to continue this sentiment, but I just cannot anymore. I recently took a long break from the gym after renewing my membership (I think in September or November of 2025). The main reason is the music played on the PA system. It is HORRIBLE and WAY TOO LOUD. It is like a bad nightclub with crappy inappropriate music that serves more to distract and drain energy. It is so loud that I can't even bring headphones and enjoy my own music without turning them up so loud I nearly go deaf to drown out the terribly loud crap music in this gym. Not everyone that works out in a gym wants nightclub type "thump thump" or crappy pop music. SOME PEOPLE WANT NO MUSIC AT ALL SO THEY CAN CONCENTRATE AND BE IN THEIR OWN THOUGHTS. It also causes people's conversations to be overly loud and obnoxious. The TYPE of music in this gym is disgusting and in poor taste. The volume is so bad that people wearing headphones complain that it is too loud. I have seen people who graduate from ear buds to noise resistant "can" type headphones in this gym just to drown out the music in this gym. I have voiced my distaste and annoyance about this to the staff and owners many times and I seem to be disregarded, which I find HIGHLY DISRESPECTFUL for someone who has been paying for year-long memberships for over 20 years. I have become so desperate I even offered to pay for the Sirius XM membership if you would just shut it off and you laughed at me WHEN I WAS DEADLY SERIOUS. This is how bad it is. Not a single person there wants to hear this music and especially at this volume. IF I WANTED A NIGHT CLUB, I WOULD GO TO A NIGHT CLUB. IF I WANTED AEROBICS MUSIC FOR A DANCE CLASS I WOULD GO TO AN AEROBICS DANCE CLASS. I COME TO THIS GYM TO LIFT WEIGHTS/WORKOUT, NOT DANCE AROUND LIKE AN IDIOT! It just tells me that you don't care about your customers/members and disregard anything they desire. FOR THE LOVE OF GOD, READ THE DAMNED ROOM! EVERYONE IN THAT GYM IS WEARING HEADPHONES. EVEN THE CLEANING CREW WEARS HEADPHONES! READ THE ROOM! TURN OFF THE DAMNED MUSIC! Clearly this is impossible for you to understand and don't care. I live next door to this gym, but I will seriously pay more or walk many blocks to go to a gym that listens to their customers and doesn't force feed them crappy clubby teenage shit-pop music when everyone is wearing headphones trying to avoid it. READ THE DAMNED ROOM!!!

Don't…read moreget me wrong, they've got equipment to spare, but no towels, no soap or shampoo in the showers, no overnight lockers available, one water fountain (serving 4 floors), and they choose to clean the toilet/shower area during business hours without any announcement, just hanging a sign that says closed for cleaning. I walked in, changed my shirt, and I gave my notice to cancel my membership. The woman tramping around cleaning when I wanted to take my shower and dress was the last straw. I will have to rearrange things a bit in my apartment (it will be tight), but I will have a 15 second trip to the "gym", will be able to listen to my choice of music out loud, will have plenty of fresh water right at hand, and will enjoy a leisurely, private shower afterwards. If home exercise doesn't work out, there's a Planet Fitness not far away. I can't imagine it being lower-grade than this place, and it costs half as much to be a member.
