This is not my favorite health city location but it certainly has all the amenities you could want…read more The squash courts are the best part of this location for me. There are's also a lot of indoor tennis courts which I have seen very busy. I am not the heaviest weightlifter in the room but when I do go to use the weights there is not a lot of variety to choose from. I have been here with a colleague before who is quite a big guy and he could not find that heavy enough wait for certain exercises. There are also a lot of classes, from spinning to aerobics. You see a lot of people doing those. Overall it is a good location and for me it is on the way home from work which is nice.

Decent gym, has pretty much everything you need. Big open, high ceiling open area that houses the…read morefree weights, weight machines, cardio machines, circuit training, and virtual spinning areas. They also have a 'Funxtion zone' that houses the new Funxtiom group lesson but outside of lesson times can be used for your own workout. There's one lesson room where they give everything from yoga and Pilates to Bodypump, kickboxing, and Zumba (to name a few). This is a perfectly decent gym for a relatively low price. There aren't a lot of extras, but then that's not really the Fit For Free business model.

I thought I reviewed this before...it's a high-end, better than average health club, "sports…read moreschool" in Jordaan, (Centrum) Amsterdam. It is in the belly of the beast indeed. I think it's more for people who can walk here. Downsides: Geen (no) towel service. - Locker room is stuff, no air and damp...greatly lacking in amenities. One little, nasty sink where people fill their water. The place needs some air! - Minimal bike parking. - the lockers have locks, but you need a 2-euro coin to get this bulky, non sanitary key chain to hang around your wrist? Really? Upsides; Facility is big. Has a sauna, steam room (co-ed) and the staff is nice. Nice eGym (extra cost) Music is not too loud. A great gym...wish it was a little cheaper and they had a better locker room.

They don't have silly things like saunas and fruitbars and bla bla bla. You don't go to the gym to make use of its cafe and have a smoothie while you read the paper at one of their tables! NO! You go there to get RIPPED.. or fit. Basic Fit gyms are without bells and whistles! You can pay the least by paying for the whole year upfront, or pay a tad more and do it monthly (automatic payments) with a one year contract, or pay even a bit more than that to pay monthly without a contract, at all. These are the only three options you have the rest is all-in. They even allow you to lend your card to someone else! As long as you're not working out together at the same time. One card per person at a time. You can, however, invite someone to workout at any Basic Fit for a week at no charge to either of you as an introduction. I don't live anywhere near this particular gym but I go here now and again anyway because, a) I can, and b) my workout buddy goes here. About the equipment: I'm pretty noobish at weightlifting as I've always found it boring (but I'm trying to change that perspective). I'm more of an adventure/violent sport kind of guy. What I do know is that they pretty much have all the equipment you need for a serious get-ripped workout and that's the most important thing about this particular Basic Fit. They also have a lot of cardio machines pointed towards some big screens. Most weights are labeled with both lbs and kg. It has separate sex changing rooms and showers, it has toilets, and it has lockers at the entrance that you can use with your own padlock. That's it. So BASICally all you need to get your workout and to get FIT. Basic Fit!

Classes are huge, but it doesn't have a crowded or competitive vibe. It felt very doable but Im sore today (next day), so i guess it was a good workout.

It's the worst experience with a gym I've ever had…read more I've literally trained at hundreds of gyms in the last 10 years and this was by a very long stretch, the worst. For the love of good rethink where you workout before choosing this gym. My girlfriend experienced a very similar scenario (debt collectors and couldn't gain access to the gym) so this is not an isolated incident. This is part of how this gym makes money, so please be aware of this before signing up. 0/5

The equipment is okay, not great. There are only four elliptical trainers and four stationary…read morebikes, so during busy times you often have to wait or you can't use the device you want. This is mostly a gym for weight-lifters; there's a whole bunch of gear for them, but not much for other kinds of conditioning. Staff is inattentive. Hand towels for workouts are only available on request at the front desk, but the front desk is often unstaffed. I got yelled at one day for dripping sweat on the floor because I had not been able to get a hand towel at the desk. The locker room facilities are poorly maintained. First week of my membership, the locker rooms had no hot water -- only cold showers after your workout. Sinks in the men's locker room didn't drain, so if you shaved or washed, the water just sat there. This went on for more than a week as well. There are plenty of other gyms in town, including nice ones in the same neighborhood. Strongly recommend you look elsewhere. They're glad to take your money but don't care about your experience.

Jeffrey Ross is an exceptional instructor. If you have the…read morechance to request him for private sessions, it is worth your time and euros. He is outstanding! Not only does he want to know what your injuries are and what health/movement goals you wish to achieve, but he listens to your body as well and understands your limitations. In other words, he understands that you may say one thing, but your body may say something else to him. The knowledge, expertise, training and personal experience he brings to each student is priceless. He has a gentle approach and truly wants to help you live pain free. And what a great workout! I was only in Amsterdam for a week and am so lucky I got to utilize 2 sessions with him. Do not hesitate to contact him. You will be so glad you did.
