Alex Fitness

Apr 2024

I rarely gush over a place in a Yelp review that doesnt serve Amazing Food or is a hotel in front a beach but here goes. I joined Alex Fitness in early March 2020, just before the pandemic and have loved it so much I stayed for 4 years now. (their Google/Yelp reviews are close to perfect for a reason) I enjoyed that AlexFitness is a family-owned gym, led by Olga and her team, offers a welcoming and supportive atmosphere that's hard to find elsewhere in the area. Not only is the pricing more affordable than SF Fitness or Live Fit nearby, but the quality of the equipment and the less crowded space make for a relaxed workout environment without some of the more distracting and more disruptive gym behavior that I experienced at a lot of packed Corporate gyms in the area. The machines are good quality and well-maintained, the place is very clean, providing everything needed for a solid workout. Although I haven't used the personal trainers myself, I've did observe them to be very professional with their clients. A big added bonus, the location is fantastic - right on Market in the Castro, making it super convenient. I cant reccomend Alex Fitness enough this is the spot.

Best staff in the city. Circa 1980's style gym with all the equipment you could need. Most amazing people work here and did more than enough to help me with my membership. I have come in during holiday hours cause I totally forgot and the workers let me lift well past closing time. This is a true community if you want one in SF. I wish I still lived there for this gym alone - also it is NEVER too packed during peak times. Would give more stars if I could.

My favorite gym to do some deadlifts when I’m visiting San Francisco! I usually use ClassPass to get access to the open gym.well-stocked with weights and equipment, and friendly vibes!
