POV: my trainer was based her for a couple of years so visited NW strong more than my home gym but was never a member here. NW strong is a great option for a no-frills weight-lifting focused gym in Belltown. This place is stacked to the brim with equipment. There are as many squat racks as you can fit in a space like this (9?) and about a dozen benches and tons of options for dumbbells and kettlebells. More than you will see in many much larger gyms. There are also other kinds of equipment like air bike, rower, ski erg, treadmill, bands, sled, TRX straps, and I'm sure some things I'm forgetting. It's a compact footprint and Trevor has done an outstanding job efficiently equipping it to the max. The trainers I've observed here have all be high quality with their own unique style. There is also more of a community here than I think you get with some of the bigger gyms around. From a female perspective I will say that the clientele here is mostly men. There have been many times where the gym was packed and I was the only female present. That said, people here are nice, and respectful overall and it's a good spot to work out. If I lived closer, I'd consider being a member here. I would say the two downsides that may or may not impact you personally are that there is no locker room or shower to speak of (typical commercial building bathrooms shared by multiple tenants in the building) and the space would benefit from a few fans or stronger AC. This is fine 10 months of the year but it can get very stuffy and humid in the hottest days of the summer. read more

READ ME 1. Trever, the owner, is very responsive and kind. 2. The gym is very clean, especially since Trever uses meyers cleaning solutions (smells great!). 3. The gym has a wide varied of equipment and free weights. 4. The gym is well-lit 5. Music selection is good, but not too loud if you're using headphones Conclusion: My girlfriend and I are from out of town and come from a private gym. NorthWest Strong, especially Trever, were very welcoming and accommodating when it came to having us train to prep for our powerlifting meets. If I ever come to Seattle again this would be our "go-to" gym for training. Thank you Trever and NorthWest Strong for having us . read more

See all

Trey is the best! This is the first time I've ever done any type of working out where it involves weights/strength training and I was very intimidated. But, he did a fantastic job making me not feel so... new and weak lol. He was really encouraging and pushed me, but not too hard to the point where I felt defeated. He has really insightful comments and suggestions and is clearly knowledgeable in this field. I highly highly recommend booking with him because if you're new or a veteran, it's just a good idea to have someone professional like Trey help you improve and get to a healthy lifestyle you're seeking. Thoroughly satisfied with having him as my trainer! read more

Trever is an excellent trainer. He creates an effective and safe program tailored to your needs. Keeps the session super fun. My husband and I are hooked and we look forward to our workouts. Since we just started working out he constantly helps us with our posture and movements He also helps us keep track of nutrition and provide inputs on areas we can improve. read more

Everything was clean! The staff was nice working out was easy and accessible overall great time and amazing experience

I can't say enough good things about Trever. I am so pleased with my personal training with him and with the results that I am achieving. Not having exercised for a long time I was a little apprehensive but when I did my first trial session with Trever I knew that he was the right coach for me, even though I almost passed out on my day 1 (you can imagine my level of unfitness) After just three months I am extremely pleased with my progress and feel assured that with his continued training and encouragement I would continue getting good results and attain my goal. I would like to thank Trever for all his hard work, to raise my limits and keep challenging me. As for the gym itself, it's very neat and clean, has all the equipment that you would need. Trever has got a range of exercises from HIIT to strength and cardio. read more

Northwest strong was a great gym. Trever was very nice and accommodating. The gym had very new equipment and it felt very clean. It had everything I needed to get a great athletic workout. The all terrain sled he had was my favorite piece of equipment I used. Not many gyms have a sled and so that was great. Everything was very organized and well taken care of, I can tell that the northwest strong community is respectful of the facility and of their fellow gym goers. The surround sound system was also awesome. Working out while blasting motivational music on the surround sound system was definitely new experience for me and I couldn't get enough of it. Go here!!! Get in shape!!! Have fun!! read more

I dropped in today to do a workout and was very pleased! This gym has everything you need to get a great workout in.

Started going to this gym for about a month. I can't speak much about the training classes as I just go in as a regular member, but this gym is absolutely perfect for my use. Nice local gym for those in Belltown area. I'm trying to improve my compound lifts and this gym has all the necassary equipment for doing so. I also get second-hand motivation from the gym owner Trever, who is incredibly friendly and professional. Overall fantastic gym, my only criticism would be lack of some equipment you'd typically find at commercial gyms. For me personally, not a dealbreaker. read more

Trever was extremely personable and accommodating. His gym was clean and had all the necessary equipment for a great workout. The surround sound was my favorite part of the gym because he allowed you to connect to blue tooth and control the music. The people in the gym were also very respectful of your space. Northwest Strong has a great community! read more

Small and locally owned gym. This place is perfect for any locals or travelers that want to get a workout in. It has literally everything that you could ask for. Whether it's cardio, strength training, or powerlifting, NWS has it all. Trever is the nicest dude ever and will hook you up. 100% recommended to anyone that passes by. read more

Trever is a personable and tremendous trainer. Even if you don't use a personal trainer, the comfort of the gym and the flexible hours make for a great way to get/stay in shape. 10/10 recommend. read more

Trever is very knowledgeable and mixes up exercises to get the best out of our workout. He also takes into consideration if there's things (muscle sprains/pain) that are bothering us and comes up with an alternate workout for the specific muscle groups. I had a long standing groin pain that he helped me overcome. I like weights whereas my partner likes more of a HIIT format. Trever plans our workout keeping individual goals in mind. I went from squating 100lbs to 255lbs and benching 85lbs to 160lbs. It's been only a few months and I can see some progress. My pull-up game has also improved. Definitely recommend NW strong to meet your goals read more

Trever really pushes you to be your best and keeps you motivated to reach that next level that you is feel out of reach. Definitely a great trainer to meet your fitness goals. read more
