New location windows completely covered with brown paper and a sign out front saying "this location is permanently closed." There was a door slightly ajar and what looked like people and possibly equipment inside, though I did not get a good look. I pulled the door partially open to go inside and had to let go because of a phone call. It looked like some people saw me. Took a few minutes to end the call, and during that time, I heard someone come up from the inside and close and lock the door. I called their phone number and no answer. Closed business? Moving? Just unfriendly? No idea, but it seems not to be a place to go. Save yourself some time and go elsewhere.

Since starting my lifting journey in 2019 I must say this is by far my favorite gym. It was exactly…read morewhat I was looking for in terms of being super lowkey but also having such a welcoming group of gym goers. Rich the owner is so kind and tentative and should be proud of the space he's cultivated. Vincent is also super kind and was great in welcoming me to this new gym getting over my first timer nerves very quickly. If you are looking for a space where you can go in and out quickly this is a spot for you. I've never had to wait for a machine. They have all of the essentials for lifting cardio machines and sometimes there's a cute puppy or two. Lots of well seasoned lifters here as well as newbies. Great vibe and place!

Holy crap, after visiting this place last week I can totally understand the bad reviews! There I…read morewas, staying in Palo Alto looking at some properties and this was the nearest gym. Wanting to give it a try before committing, I signed up for a three-day pass. Showed up, no problem checking in, and the place is a wreck. Dumbbells everywhere, plates scattered across the floor, machines abandoned fully loaded, cables snapped...I've never seen such a mess. So the second day I head over to Mountain View 24hr Fitness and it's better; further away, but cleaner. My third day I'm short on time and heading back home that afternoon so I head to Redwood City once again. I show the dude on duty my pass and he says sorry, the three-day pass is only for locals. I explain that I'm staying in PA and evaluating the local gyms, it hasn't been an issue my previous two visits and this would be my third and final. Again, he apologies and said I had to be local with a local ID. He refused to look at my pass, the email it was sent with, or anything else to do with my membership. There was no compromise, he didn't care at all. I drove over to Mountain View, showed them my pass and got in my workout without issue. Insane that they would offer passes but not honor them. Avoid this place at all costs!

It is so clean here and there is always staff there to help replenish and clean. The bathroom is very clean and has calming music. The music in the main room is always good vibes. And the equipment WORKS! lol can't ask for more. Definitely recommend the year long membership for those in this area.

My current staple gym whenever I'm in the bay! Lots of equipment, plenty of squat racks, and a…read moresolid hip thrust machine. A lot of the equipment feels quite dated (peeling or paint fading or chipped, etc.) but not a big deal since at least the equipment is there and you can get a good workout in! Day passes are $25 and you get free parking in the garage next door for 90 minutes (no validation needed). A solid option for visitors! Also the gym is dog friendly so you can sometimes see some goodo boyos wandering around--I'm not much of a dog person but it still brings a smile to my face. Great atmosphere, super friendly staff, and a great place to hit all of the muscles.

To Matty, Alec and Taylor - Folks I have met with all of you and have written/ discussed/ texted…read morewith you over hours. You all agreed that my gym membership was incorrectly cancelled in 2024 and I have been charged over 16 MONTHS WITHOUT AN INVOICE (more than $1200 in total). I even considered a lower settlement amount since you all pleaded about being a non-corporate, SMB gym. But now you all have now taken to hiding, screening my calls and avoiding payment rather than be a professional outfit. I am extremely disappointed with this behavior and the standards you set. Folks - for anyone considering TWR please note that their cancellation policy is a bit of a joke and resolution processes for incorrect billing and cancellations are basically treated as an exercise to induce fatigue. I have been to the gym in person multiple times to speak to ALL their partners and they decide to rip me off after leading me around in circles since 5 months now. Happy to post more details/ screenshots for interested viewers.

I have been going to Heartcore on and off for over 6 months, and I've enjoyed every class I've…read moretaken so far! I appreciate the Off Peak class pricing in this economy, and I tend to book those classes since they're cheaper. These classes are often taught by Krystal and Sunny, and they've quickly become my favorites! They're so patient with newer members. I don't like being touched by instructors during my workouts when they're trying to correct my form, and Krystal+Sunny are able to tell me verbally how to correct my form without touching me. I get a great workout and I'm noticing results - my biceps are getting more muscular as I've become more consistent in the last two months!

I can't say enough good things about Heartcore. Due to my background in traditional Pilates, I've…read morenever been a fan of megaformer studios, where I've often found an inordinate emphasis on larger muscles, making it harder for newer students to engage the core. But the slow speed of Heartcore classes forces each and every student to channel into the core, regardless of level. Additional challenge is always available for the more advanced student, and every instructor has infinite patience for the novice who needs an easier variation. Each and every instructor is extremely well-trained, as well as kind and encouraging. I've never had two sessions even remotely the same, and it's obvious that there is a good deal of thought behind the flow and series of exercises in each class. And the classes always make me work so hard!! I feel it for days after, in the most gratifying way! A special shout out to Alisa ... I was quite demoralized after my second class, but she graciously gave me one-on-one time to take me through the fundamentals. I'm so thankful to her!

I have worked with Michael Dorricott twice in my life, once 11 years ago and once again about 16…read moreweeks ago. I came back because he is hands down, the best in the business. He has completely transformed the way I think about heath and fitness, something I have been passionate about most of my life but something fundamental has always been missing for me that has made consistency extremely hard and nearly impossible. Finally, I am now holding the correct practices, mindset and building the correct momentum to drive me to this being a life long journey and not a passing event, summer or moment. It's been 16 weeks and I have lost 26lbs and counting. Thrilled to continue.

Training Space is the real deal. I started working with one…read moreof their personal trainers recently, and it's been a game changer. What really impressed me is how intentional they are about matching you with the right coach -- not just someone with credentials, but someone who fits your goals, your energy, and how you like to be coached. I didn't realize how much that would matter until now, but the difference is huge. Every session feels like it's actually building toward something, not just burning time. If you're feeling stuck in your fitness routine or you want something way more personalized than the usual gym setup, I highly recommend checking this place out. It's focused, professional, and honestly one of the best decisions I've made for my health in a long time.

I've been going to this Planet Fitness location in Redwood City for a while now, and I can honestly…read moresay it's one of the best gym experiences I've had. The facility is always clean, well-maintained, and has everything I need for a great workout. What really sets this location apart, though, is the staff. Every team member I've interacted with has been kind, respectful, and genuinely helpful. They go out of their way to make sure everyone feels comfortable and supported, no matter their fitness level. If you ever have a question or need assistance, they're always approachable and resourceful. I especially want to recognize the manager, Taeyah, who clearly sets the tone for the entire gym. You can tell that she takes pride in creating a positive and welcoming environment. Because of her leadership, the staff consistently delivers great service and maintains a friendly, judgment-free atmosphere. Overall, this gym is a fantastic place to work out, whether you're just starting your fitness journey or have been at it for years. Highly recommend!

My old gym became too expensive, so I joined Active & Fit Direct so that I could try a bunch of…read moredifferent gyms before committing to one. I've stayed with Planet Fitness for the last six month because I really like it! No gym is perfect, but here's my take on it. The Good: 1. The team that runs it is fabulous! They're a polite, helpful, positive group. 2. The facilities are clean and well taken care off. All the equipment looks new. I haven't seen a single piece of broken equipment. The team is constantly cleaning, and it shows. 3. It's a nice vibe. People always wipe down equipment after they're done. I didn't see that much when I was at 24 Hour Fitness or the Bay Club. 4. The dues are dirt cheap. $30 a month includes the Black Card amenities like massage beds. That said, here's the Bad: 1. No pool or sauna - That's fine for me, but if you like those then this gym isn't for you. 2. No group classes - Not my thing, so I didn't care. 3. No lounge - The place is optimized to get you in, get a workout, and leave. There's no area to socialize or get work done like the Bay Club has. I do miss that. 4. It's small - It's really, really small. Sometimes I do have to wait a couple of minutes for a stair climber (they only have four), and the area around the free weights is pretty packed most of the time. If you're ok with those four things, this is a great gym--nice people, new equipment, clean facilities, and a great price. I highly recommend.

I really wanted to like this place. Seriously. After multiple calls with multiple emails and…read moremessages, I did not receive a single call back. My health insurance has the select one pass affinity pass which provided a small discount to the membership.

I didn't want the feel of a big-box gym. I wanted something smaller, safer, and more comfortable, with all the equipment I need for a solid workout. I found exactly that here. As someone in my early 20s, I feel genuinely safe and at ease. The vibe isn't a pickup spot at all; everyone keeps to themselves, but is friendly if you need to work in. Honestly, it's rarely crowded, so I usually never even have to wait for a machine. The manager is amazing too. She is warm, knowledgeable, and clearly passionate about what she does. She has a great rapport with members, (knows all of them by name) and it really shows in the atmosphere of the gym. Highly recommend!

The members and staff are incredibly welcoming and treat each other with love and respect. If you need a spot, help learning an exercise or just have questions about fitness in general, there is usually someone there with the knowledge and willingness to help. You will never have to wait for equipment like at a commercial gym. The gym is open 24/7. The equipment is constantly being updated and there are always new toys to play with. It is clear that the owners care about the gym and constantly invest in it. I've been in the powerlifting community for over a decade and can say with absolute certainty that if you're looking for a gym to join, I would absolutely 100% recommend this one!

Lemme just start by saying that if you're looking for a gym in the bay, steer clear. I checked this…read morespot out based on the reviews and some recs, but I legit had to do a double take because what I heard and what I saw were completely different. Equipment: If stuff isn't broken or bent, it just isn't there. I've seen gyms with half the space have more kilos and power bars available. Not to mention they have an entire area dedicated to machines that look like they only get used when the cleaners dust them off. I heard the owners have been promising more stuff, but nothing's come except a small ah set of plates. Facilities: Bathroom was straight up vile with a busted toilet seat. Floors are legit slimy, and I saw maybe two people tops wipe off their equipment. I asked some of the other members if the gym ever brings in a maintenance crew to clean the place down, but they told me the cleaning is done by like a family and kids LMAO Management: Day-to-day is run by this dude named Jostin (Justin?), but outside of my first visit I barely saw the man. Bro is either not at the gym or locked up in the back office. Only time I remember seeing him was when his doordash arrived. The other owners are barely in too, and I heard the main dude isn't even in state anymore??? Cost: Game time. Based on what I've said, guess how much they ask for a month. Two-fn-hundred without a contract, 150 for a 6 month. Place thinks is premium-premium but is giving vibes that make 24 look like Equinox. The members must love burning cash because they could do so much better for much less
