I've been a member of this gym for 5 years now. I find the…read morestaff to be super friendly and helpful. What's most impressive about this gym is that it boasts some of the widest range of equipment and floor space in the gym industry. There are a lot of classes and personal trainers available. With different membership packages available, your access and price range is somewhat adjustable. The change rooms are nice and clean and spacious as well. Attendance is quite robust and the staff look very engaged and cheery. The whole atmosphere of the gym is very welcoming. I still look forward to going each week and working out.

Not toooo bad... not the best either. Fortunately I came in on off times on a weekend so the place…read morewasn't packed and I was able to handle what I had come in for. Clean facility which is great, just wish there was more free weight and space. If it was busy there's no way...

Decided to try this out since its really close to my work and I can be here at 3:30ish before the…read morehorrible 5pm crowd descend. Plus its a big facility with kettlebells, TRX's and a STEAM ROOM!!! OMG. I was so excited about the steam room. That's my favourite thing, and I haven't belonged to a gym with a steam room in ages. I should say that most people would not find fault with the range of equipment here. They have a bazillion weight machines and another bazillion cardio machines. Along with a big, bright group exercise room and a dedicated spin room, 90% of gym goers would be set. I was not. I absolutely HATED the freeweight area. That's the most important thing for me. It's this huge, two-level facility and they have all their heavy freeweights shovelled in this tiny corner room type of thing and it sucks balls. Total fail. There was no way I was joining when I have to take a ticket for a squat rack and lollygag around for 20 minutes at 3:30pm. Especially when I have to pay $5 for parking if I stay over 1.5 hours. (note: you don't literally have to "take a ticket" for the squat rack - i was being sarcastic, my friend read my review and was like, omg you have to take a ticket for the squat rack? whhhaaaat? no, no, no... that's just me being snarky ;) But both racks were full with someone already waiting, so that was annoying) So that was that. I'll squat tomorrow at my usual gym, which I'm not convinced I want to leave... just want to see if I liked this place, mostly because of the steam room. What else? The trainers here are NOT friendly, they sit around looking holier-than-thou and even when the membership guy tells you to have a seat and there's nowhere to sit because of them, they don't move or entreat you at all to feel welcome. I've worked in gyms for years, so this was kind of unbelievable to me. If that was me, I would have introduced myself to this new potential immediately and made conversation. Also, the locker rooms and especially the toilet stalls were FILTHY. The steam room was actually AWESOME. It was boiling hot and steamy and even when people came in and out, it was hot enough that it didn't really cool down at all. Oh well, too bad. It's not a bad facility if you want to do some leg press and the pec dec and finish off with a bit of elliptical, maybe catch a class once or twice a week, but the weight room sucks, the staff are largely unfriendly in my experience and the locker rooms are really gross.

The classes are provided in a large size room so can fit loads of people . Staff are friendly and all positives about the gym except the closing time on Thursday night .

Ninth Wave is the best gym I have ever been to…read more Having been a member for a year now I can say that it has been a such a great experience going to an independent gym and working with Owner and trainer Matthew. All of my workouts are completely personalised to what my goals, strengths and weaknesses are. The gym has a community feel to it and is not an intimidating place for new people. I have made some great friends by participating in some of the great classes that the gym has to offer. The members that go here are from a diverse age bracket, fitness level, experience level and all have different goals. If you are looking to recover from injury, lose fat, get fit, or get strong, Ninth Wave Fitness is the place you should look to for quality personalised support.

I recently moved to Sydney CBD for work and was desperate to find a new boxing gym to replace my…read moreold home town boxing club. Firstly, the one week free trial they offer had me hooked from the get-go! As soon as I arrived, all of the staff were so friendly and welcoming. They even gave me a free pair of wraps as I left mine at work. The trainer for my first two classes was the current Golden Gloves champion, so she really knew her stuff. Not only are half of the trainers female, so are the members. So not intimidating at all! If you are looking to do some boxing classes and a little bit of yoga thrown in, this place is definitely the best in Sydney. Hope this helps boxing lovers in Sydney.

Situated close to the new Channel 7/Pacific Magazines building, and a 10 minute walk from both Redfern and Erskineville stations, we find a cosy little alternative where you don't have to feel self-conscious. Opened just over two years ago, it has experienced tremendous growth due to its comfortable vibe and professional and supportive personal trainers, who ensure you get the most out of your hour and encourage you to set and reach individual goals, but never push. Whether you're a beginner or a gym junkie, there's fitness training to suit your needs. I like their distinctive small-group boxing and general fitness classes-you can let out some steam (and burn those kilojoules!) outdoors, in the nearby Australian Technology Park, so you're not confined to the fitness studio. Your peers keep you motivated, you split the cost, and you might even make a friend or two. Other services include one-on-one sessions as well as pre and post natal classes. Their opening hours accommodate for morning, lunch, and evening, as well as weekend work-outs. It's up to you how you want to work out, when you want to work out, and whom with. It really is YOUR gym.

So there are 3 different Anytime Fitnesses in this area. And I find this one the best. It is…read moregenerally less crowded and has the least try-hards in it. But as all Anytime gyms are, this is still quite small. The down side is there are no lockers and there are only 3 showers. So you might be waiting for a bit for a shower. However, as this is a suburban gym, I think that they assume that most people will shower at home and will keep all their personals in their car.

The members are great and considerate which is why there is a great mixture of men of women as everyone feels comfortable and enjoys their workouts. Probably the only gym in the area where all the weights get put back in the right spot and are cleaned regularly. They have AC and fans! Classes and operate 24/7. Can't honestly recommend any other gym in the area. A lot of parking spaces, high-quality equipment, and clean facilities. Compared to the other gyms in the area, they are by far the best in the Western region and easily the best in Sydney!
