Great gym, well run by Mitch. Good equipment, well maintained and the cleanliness is on point as well! Support this local business instead of a crowded chain GYM corporation! read more

The Zoo Gym - Gyms Near Me - Lake Worth, Florida

The gym is actually nearly empty early in the morning. We also enjoy coming between 9-11am as well since it's not full of people neither. Other options for those looking to come when it's empty is coming in late at night after 9pm. When we get stuck during the day running errands together we catch a late workout and it's empty as well. Very clean. Wish they had a stair master. read more

I LOVE THIS GYM !! This gym and it's staff are very friendly with no pretension at all. They are everything you'd want from a local and family owned business, they are attentive, personable and make themselves available to answer all of your questions. I work out twice a week with Jackie and through her patience and mentorship I look forward every workout. It's great to have that kind of partner with me on my fitness journey. Do yourself a favor, go in get a day pass and experience it for yourself. You'll be glad you did!! read more

Having recently been laid off from my job, I had lost the access to use that company's gym resources. Therefore, as I looked for and found another opportunity, I needed to find a gym to keep up my routines, which didn't take long as I knew Zoo was 10 blocks from my house. Located in Downtown Lake Worth just as you turn on Lake Avenue from Dixie Highway, Zoo is right where you would want a gym in any downtown area for a city or town. Not off the beaten path, not hard to find. Right there for easy access. While the interior feels a little dated like 90s, they have everything you need to do your workout, and the look does have a charm about it where you know you're going to get down and dirty and get a good sweat going. Equipment-wise, they had everything I needed for use between free weights and pulley machines. With regards to cardio machines, you have the pick of the litter between two types of stationary bikes, treadmills, elliptical machines, and others. While the size of the gym is not particularly big, I didn't have a problem moving about to do my routines. The only thing I didn't see (unless it was in the other bathroom) was a shower to clean up after your work out, which would be convenient. However, being that my house is close to this gym, it's not a dealbreaker. The vibes at this gym are very down-to-earth, without pretension. The staff is friendly and affable. You really don't have any egos or bs like I have seen at other gyms, where it seems to be a competition to be jacked and glamorous. Here, you can do your routines unhindered, and move on with your life. read more

Small, smelly, outdated and obviously not in the money making biz. I guess they don't update their online info and the customer must pay for it. I wouldn't come if they paid me! I'll gladly go elsewhere. read more

they have very old set up and very few. smelled like dog pee cut work out short have to shower will not be going back they don't even have mats read more

Been going to this gym for a few years and the staff is always very friendly and accommodating when needed. It has been a motivating experience to see the same people working hard in the gym every day, since it is a smaller gym and people take it much more seriously than a large gym where people are holding up equipment playing on there phones.. Highly recommend if you are looking for a better gym in the area!!! read more

What a great little hidden gem, Dawn and Jackeey are always there with smiles on their faces and always ready to help or ask how the world is treating you! Definitely a family feeling gym! ( been a member since 2018) read more

I chose The Zoo in Lake Worth to undertake my fitness journey just over a year ago, after a great initial meeting with Jackeey, a trainer and co-owner. Since that time, Jackeey has seen me through a very difficult and stressful period and also at my near-best and through it all has structured a training program for me that accomodates the fact that I am 60 years old, have been seriously overweight my entire life, and have a testy back as a result. I have lost 80 pounds, and have gone from barely being able to stand fully upright in the morning, to being largely pain-free most of the time. The staff has become like family and are always positive and encouraging, as are the members. I can't imagine being on this journey at any other gym, and for the first time in my life know i will reach my goals. read more

Went in the gym to get membership information. Three people at the desk who couldn't be bothered to help a potential customer, one of them the Club Manager named Jackie Bish. Jackie was dismissive and rude. It's always great when paperwork is more important then people. They couldn't have made me feel more unwelcome. You couldn't pay me to go to this gym. read more

Trying to work out and the parking lot is full of people going to the restaurant and bars. The parking lot needs to be regulated for paying customers. read more

Best gym ever along with a great trainer Mitch. I would recommend this gym to everyone. it is always clean and well maintained

WOW!! That's all I have to say . love love this place from the gym its self to the staff. The gym is the cleanest gym I have ever been in . They take care of all the equipment. The staff is very helpful and friendly and always have a smile on there face. read more

I love this place! Jackie is a superb trainer and I have see fantastic results. She makes training a blast.

Without a doubt The Zoo Health Club, and head trainer Jackie, are hands down the best gym I have ever belonged to and worked out with! I have joined and subsequently quit the BIG, and the MEDIUM sized gyms because of lack of results and dedication from the staff. But at The Zoo Heath Club, I was engaged, encouraged and found AMAZINGLY significant results in 5 months! What a difference The Zoo has made in my appearance and I couldn't be more pleased. Thank you guys for the terrific job! I couldn't have done it without Jackie and the great folks there! read more

This place is always open always cleaned and staff is amazing they are there to help and always there to help you reach your goals I highly recommend you going there read more

5 star rating. Gym is always clean and staff is super friendly. Jackie and Dawn love what they do and it shows. A staple in the community for new and old residents. read more

Do not recommend. Nice facility and nice staff. After canceling my membership they continually have charged me every month for a year and the staff have refused to get back to me, as well as the owner. Do not join. Plenty of better reliable gyms in the area. read more

I have belonged to this club for 5 years now. The friendliness of the staff & overall cleanliness of the club make up for its smaller space. There are a few heavy duty weight trainers but also plenty of people that just want a nice, friendly atmosphere where we can joke around & not feel pressure. They also have excellent personal trainers if you need a little push to reach your goals. I have been working with Princess. Don't let the name or petite figure fool you! She has managed to plan challenging workouts while constantly motivating me to go further that I believe possible... and she's funny! Sarah, Dawn & Jackie run this club & they set the bar for professional but a personal experience in the little town of Lake Worth. You can walk down the street afterwards for a latte at Starbucks or go across the street & grab a bite to eat at several great spots! read more

This is a great, neighborhood gym. It's always clean and has everything you need. The staff are super friendly and helpful. No matter your level of experience/fitness you'll feel welcome here! read more

As a recent transplant to Lake Worth, I love Zoo gym. Their staff and owners go out of their way to accommodate all their members. I've been. Member at big gyms like LA Fitness, and after Zoo I'll never go back. I work in a high school so I'm stuck at school all crazy hours of the day. Zoo's 24 hour access allows me to workout at my convenience. I highly recommend Zoo Gym in downtown Lake Worth. read more

If you sign a contract with this club, please note that it AUTOMATICALLY renews after your year. I missed that part which wasn't difficult, as it's a long, wordy, legal agreement, and no one will point that out to you. ALSO--when you do cancel, it's in their agreement that there's a 30 day cancellation fee, so you'll be paying for a month you don't use. A word of WARNING---DO NOT SIGN A CONTRACT HERE. You may as well be giving away your first born. read more

It's good for people who want a simple workout. However the employees are unfriendly unless you have a full membership. The equipment is outdated. Very small. The 'snacks' they sell are way too overpriced. Two stars only because it's good for a simple workout. Everything else comes with it. read more

I signed up to the gym on the '1 week free trial' as I was staying in the locality for a period of time, however was sorely disappointed in this gym for a number of reasons. For starters, I couldn't get into the gym for two days as one was a Sunday and the other was Memorial Day. Being from England I hadn't a clue what this meant but was told when I spoke to the patron on the phone that the '1 week free trial' could only begin when the gym was manned - the following day. Unperturbed I visited the gym the next day and was faced with a very stoney faced and rude lady who told me I was not allowed to join the gym on the free trial as I didn't have the 'residents permit'. In fairness to her (the reason for at least a 1 star rating) she allowed me to workout that day on the promise I'd return and pay the next day, either $25 for a week or $10 per day. I returned as promised the next day to pay for the week's trial, even though I was travelling the following day. I was then faced by a very aggressive lady who barked at me that I had to pay and the amount was $30 for the week, not the promised $25. She also shouted at me that I should bring a towel next time, even though there were no towels and I used tissue to wipe the benches I was using. In sum, this gym franchise needs to be a lot clearer about the small print regarding the 'free pass' and careful about who they allow to run these franchises. These people represented the brand in a very negative way and made me not want to join the gym or return. On a temporary basis it is fine and may be good if the patron and staff gain a positive, client friendly attitude, giving individuals the benefit of the doubt. As a business owner I know that the customer is always paramount but this concept clearly is not currently in the forefront of their minds. read more

Dont waste your time. There are professionally run gyms nearby. You'll be much better off spending your time at any one of those.

Tiny but mighty - don't let the smaller size of this club fool you. It's got everything you need, plus owners who care about the membership experience. read more

The zoo health club in downtown lake worth is really cool. It's in a great location, it has a friendly/comfortable workout atmosphere, and they make you feel like your apart of a family. read more

This gym seems to be turning away business. Greeted with a smile but nothing much after that. Just moved to lake worth two days ago. Downloaded one week pass. But because my license still reads Oakland Park Florida and not Lake Worth. And,I haven't had a piece of mail to my new address yet, they refuse to honor the pass. Truth is the gym is 2/10ths of a mile from my new home and is,extremely convenient. But I work in Boynton Beach so I can find a convenient gym over there. I will not step foot in zoo gym of Lake Worth..They don't seem to want my business. read more

What's wrong with this GYM is that it's owned by local women. They are not Planet Fitness, or YOUFIT or BALLY"S this is a small business. Open 24/7 it is a small gym. Gym's are more for community and less for profit. Keep in mind the cost to run one of these places. They are great people , who do a lot for the surrounding community. " The owners are a happy little LGBT" couple who are helping the neighborhood. We have a membership , paid in full. It is small. but private, some people aren't looking for a ZUMBA class, just convenience. read more

I had the pleasure of working out at the Zoo health club last week and it was one of the best workouts I've had. The gym is very comfortable, the staff is warm and welcoming, and the other members are super friendly. I felt so comfortable there from day one even though I didn't know anyone. The equipment is in great condition. I would highly recommend anyone to join this neighborhood gem. read more

I have been to many gyms, in many different cities, over the years. In fact, I drive past several gyms on my way to The Zoo in downtown Lake Worth, Florida. It might be the smallest gym I have worked out in in terms of square footage, but it is by far the biggest in quality. The owners accomplish something that is much more difficult than it sounds; they are able to combine all the benefits and convenience of a large, chain- type health club, with the hands on, personal service of a small, family owned business. I am not the easiest member that a gym could have, but I am always made to feel like a welcomed and valued customer. Experienced body builders and first timers work out side by side in a super- clean, well stocked gym that can teach other health clubs a few things about retail management and customer relations. read more

Coming to the zoo for a year now I cannot describe how wonderfull i feel every time im in here. Staff treats you like family they welcome and motivate you all the time. Yes its a small gym but very clean at all times, im thankful I found this gym close to home always a great workout thank you zoo Gym read more

The managment has qucikly adressed any concerns I've had.The machines are well maintained but the space is very limited. I continue to attend this gym because of the convenience and 24 hour amenities. Thank you. read more

Well equipped gym with friendly and knowledgeable staff. Parking can be a challenge and the major downside is the lack of shower facilities. read more
