If you know what you're getting into, this gym is great. It is a lifting focused gym primarily specifically stocked with weights and weight machines. They also have personal training services available but they do not have group classes. As someone who primarily lift weights, I absolutely love it as it has everything I need and nothing more. If you want other amenities like a swimming pool, group classes, locker room facilities, etc. then I would advise going somewhere else but if you're like me and want a convenient place with friendly staff to do simple workouts, you can't beat them. Unfortunately due to COVID, the membership prices have gone up but I still firmly believe this is probably the best value for any gym on the west side of San Francisco. Be warned that due to the neighborhood, parking can be difficult, especially in the afternoon and early evening.

  • Peter Fonteneau

Great gym. Looks like a standard small neighborhood gym, but it has so much good equipment. If you are into any serious weight training this place has what you need. Tons of rogue equipment, racks, bars etc. Lots of great impliments you won't find in regular spots. SSB bars, sleds, football bars, Kabuki bars, Rogue wagon wheels, loadable log press, and perhaps most important - no hex plates. Only downside is that it's very small and tight. But totally worth it for the access to amazing equipment. If you want smoothies and Foo foo stuff, go to equinox. If you're into training hard come here.

  • Alex Yang

Ordinary gym, never super busy, overpriced. I have a gym membership and I am overall satisfied with this gym. While it is not the biggest, it still has a lot of offer. I was a bit shocked at the price, but it is not outrageous. The best part about the gym is that it is almost never busy and I can almost use whatever I want when I cam there. I can say I am overall satisfied with the gym and it covers everything I need from a gym.

  • Ed Ogie-Kristianson

Thought I'd already left a review... Customer service here was outstanding and the place was clean. There's no locker room and no where to lock your stuff, but they have restrooms with showers and free towel service. I did the day membership after a work conference. Very glad these guys are there and will return if back in town.

  • Caitlin Bingham

I've been a member for years and I love this place! Highly recommend it, the equipment is in good condition and the place is kept very clean. The owner and people who staff this gym are wonderful and they are very conscious of the neighborhood they live in. Also the prices are very reasonable- I wouldn't go anywhere else. :)

  • James Doll

A great place to lift or get your cardio on. It's not you oversized warehouse gym like "globo gym" but a smaller more efficient hole on the wall with all of the right equipment. It's rarely ever crowded and the members are always willing to share the equipment. Memberships are very affordable!

  • Colin Noel

Absolutely love this gym. I’ve never been a member of a local gym before moving to the sunset and it’s so much more fulfilling to be a paying member ($50 a month, not bad at all for SF) to this place rather than something like a 24 hr, or another commercial gym. Staff is super chill too :)

  • Dana Hooshmand

Well equipped small community gym. Has everything you might need: multiple squat racks with oly and metal plates, lots of strength machines and cardio machines. Even a heavy bag and speed bag in the mobility and cardio room upstairs. Basically a 24h with personality and soul.

  • Sandra Allen

Nice neighborhood gym. It's a compact space but usually always can find a treadmill or the machines you need. They have a downstairs space with equipment and treadmills, upstairs with floor space, boxing, and more cardio machines. Staff is always friendly and gym us clean.

  • Camila Guerrero

I love this place. It's the perfect place to get a good workout in. The staff are super friendly, the place is clean, the other members are great and I probably have like 15 husband's that don't know we're married walking around the place. Best gym I've ever joined.

  • Nathan Lui

This is the best gym in the city. For the weightlifters, they have plenty of free weights, squat racks, and olympic bars. Everything is utilitarian, which I love. Everyone on the staff is kind and friendly. The price is also super reasonable.

  • RAY SIRI

I have been working put for over 40 years; yes, that makes me old! But it also makes me a good judge on gyms. I have worked out in the "chrome palaces" and "juice gyms" on both coasts and in between. This place is in my Top 3, been here for

  • Àlex Leiva Maturana

  • Abigail Bruce Carvalho

Great, local community gym where you go to get your needed work out. Locality is key You actually get to the gym in your busy day! Friendly staff that know you by name. Hours are great, although, I do wish it were open later than 8 on

  • Claire Teresko

I recently moved to the East Bay and one of the only things I miss about SF is sunset gym. The people there are so friendly, and there's all the equipment you need for strength training at a super reasonable monthly rate.

  • Rob Kutner

Love this place; great for muscleheads or casual lifters. Just the right machinery and gear without useless extras, no chrome, and full of friendly cheery Sunset folks. Rami and gang run a great gym.

Solid local gym for the low. Can get a bit cramped during peak hours but haven’t ever had to fight for equipment. Staff is friendly and routinely organizing misplaced equipment throughout the hours.
