Use to really enjoy this gym but its not what it use to be…read more Firstly, they almost always have a busted machine or something out of order. Stair stepper never works, neither of the ellipticals worked last time, only one out of 3 treadmills works properly. The other 2 don't incline. Maybe you should invest in new equipment? I come in with a day pass when we are in town and have noticed for the past year at least that the tile is coming up on the carpet in the weight room. Are you ever going to fix it??? Or are you going to wait til someone trips over it with weights and gets seriously injured? I Will never come back here and am shocked they still have members when they're obviously not getting their money worth with working equipment and a safe workout room.

Since the other gyms in the area are closed on Sunday I thought I would come check out Bodytek…read more Glad I did. This is probably the nicest, newest and cleanest gym in the area. And its only $10.00 for a day pass! If you need a gym for a few days to work out at and are coming from out of town I would definitely choose this place. Or if I lived here in Big Bear this is where I would join! Their rates are very good here. They have everything you need except for a legit free weight bench press. But they do have two squat racks you can easily convert into a bench since they do have a good amount of flat bench dumbbell benches. Good amount of cable machines. WHAT MAKES THIS GYM TOTALLY LEGIT AND SUPER COOL: The Aerobics Room. However I wouldn't call it that since it sounds too 1980's Richard Simmons like. But rather the room of Pain and Gain because thats what this room is all about if its used correctly. This room is a gold mine. I used to train with Jake Shields and Gil Melendez at Fairtex for 8 years and this is all these MMA fighters used to do: Battle Ropes, Tires, Kettle Bell exercises, Heavy Bag Muy Thai, Core Strengthening, Jump HIIT training, etc.. Its ALL about HIIT training. Although its good for you, you won't get shredded doing moderate steady cardio. You gotta do HIIT. If I lived here I would be in this room 6 days a week. Even where I work out at in OC at Golds Gym and 24 Hour Fitness we don't have a room like this. Forget the treadmills! Get in this room! 8 one-minute rounds of battle ropes hard core all out as hard as you can (30 seconds rest between rounds) is better than one hour steady state on the treadmill. And those monkey bars. My upper body was on fire after doing a few rounds of that!

Haven't tried the other gyms in the area, although I've cross compared prices…read more Lift Mountain has the most reasonable prices. I like the no frills nature of it and how quiet it is in the mornings. The owner is super cool. Can't expect premium amenities and immediate equipment maintenance if you're coming from LA or anywhere bougey, it's incredible for being in the middle of the dang forest, keep it in context ;-)

High Altitude Training Center welcomes any and all fitness enthusiasts or beginners to enjoy moving their body. They offer various classes as well as cardio equipment, weights galore, and spots to box or create your own workout downstairs or upstairs. They also have a little kiddie area which creates a welcoming family atmosphere as well as encourage the little ones to see their parents taking care of themselves. The staff here are super friendly and encouraging, and the price for membership is totally doable! This is a great gym in Big Bear, so do your mind and body a favor and get sweating!

The Spa of the Pines Fitness Studio is located at the Lake Arrowhead Resort and Spa and is on the…read morefirst floor. This Fitness room is open to the public and guests of the hotel. Like in my other review of the Resort and Spa, which you can see, everything associated with this Hotel is top notch and the people who manage it are fantastic. We got to meet the Spa Director, Summer Barron as well as the spa lead, Cayro Hernandez, and they basically run and organize events within the fitness studio. I also got to speak with Makayla, who gave me a rundown of the classes they offer and some of the equipment used. I love when people are so helpful especially when you are not a gym rat like myself :) The Fitness area is a very large room which has a lot of machines that you can use on your own or take private classes. They have treadmills, free weights, Ellipticals, Bicycles, assisted bench presses, and they have a full on Yoga room which has classes that run up until around 9 pm. It is really a great service they offer with all type of equipment and a variety of classes. The classes for that particular month included Zumba, Kickboxing, a cardio training class, Salsa combined with Zumba, Tai Chi, Cardio Weights, Sculpting and all types of Yoga level classes which is nice for beginners like myself. They really have a large array of classes to get you in shape. The people are great to work with as well. I was extremely impressed. You can buy day passes at $35 or $45 depending upon the day of the week, or you can buy memberships which include the basic or bronze membership to the unlimited membership. Both of these memberships include use of the locker rooms, resting rooms which include coffee and snacks I believe, and assorted discounts on the use of the salon, restaurant, and up to a 20% discount on room rates. You have access to the lake as well. The fitness center is on the first floor, but you can walk outside and take some steps leading down to the water and there is a small trail that skirts the hotel and meanders around the lake. It is very calming after a good workout. I was very impressed by my experience here and this fitness Studio was fairly busy, and some of the locals I spoke with talked very highly about it as well. I highly recommend trying it out when you come down to Lake Arrowhead. Remember the Spa area includes the Salon and fitness room, and you can have your own private lockers and have use of showers and a bunch of other treatments down there as well. Come check it out. You will be glad you did. 5 stars!

From the moment you walk in, you…read morenotice how spotlessly clean everything is--the place literally smells brand new every time I visit, which says a lot about the constant care and maintenance from the owners and staff. The gym is fully equipped with everything you need, whether you're just getting started or training at a high level. What really sets it apart, though, is the atmosphere--everyone there is friendly, welcoming, and motivating, making it a place you actually look forward to going to. They also offer a great variety of fitness classes and martial arts programs, so there's something for everyone no matter your goals. If you're looking for a clean, professional, and positive environment to train in, Elite Altitude Training is hands down one of the best gyms around. Highly recommended!

In the past I have either been intimidated by the gym setting itself or find that after initially joining, the environment is just not for me. I completely lucked out with Jesse and Apex. I've been at the gym for six months now. Jesse has made feel welcomed and accommodates my pace. Jesse is patient, kind, and understanding. He never makes me feel silly or out of place in the gym. He helps me set goals that are reasonable, and attainable. I am especially impressed by his strength training regiment which is perfect for me. I have seen significant gains in the past months, the hours are great, and the price is perfect. If you are on the fence about joining, don't be. I cannot speak highly enough about Jesse and his coaching and training.
