Clean, well lighted facility Friendly staff 24/7 accessibility 365 days a year More than ample parking Secured facility with cameras (and also key fob entry) -- very nice Dry saunas only Thermage, cavitation, and other supplemental services available through former owner Wanda Easy to find on OKC's 39th Street/historic Route 66 Warr Acres? I think so -- or at least darn close Just down the street from Spices of India read more

needed a place to workout while out of town. never expected to find such a true gem . management is super friendly and accommodating. great price and options, open 24/7 365, old school iron weights and proper equipment to get any workout you need. a gym like this back in miami would be priceless. if you're tired of mainstream commercial gyms and want something a bit more low key that has everything you need, look no further. i never write reviews but for this place i can't say enough good things read more

Good for people serious about their workouts , have everything you need to get a good workout in. I visited from out of town and wanted to get a few workouts in. Mabagement very accommodating . read more

I needed a REAL gym while I was in town for training and this place did not disappoint. Sweet smell of iron, a whole damn wall of dumbbells, tons of plated equipment, and super friendly staff. Super flexible with a single month membership and 24/7 access. This is a great local independent gym that is fantastic if you are there to get work done. If you want to stand around and look like you're doing something, go find a corporate gym, play on your phone, and show off your under armor apparel. Leave the hard work to to the adults. Rock on WR24!! I'll be back for sure! read more

Has just about every machine for every muscle group as well as some niche ones I've never seen at other gyms that are very effective. Dumbbells that range very high in weight (150lb+), wood platform for Olympic lifts, and best of all a sauna. Don't pass up this gym! read more

I've been working out at the Weight Room for about 6 months now. I really like it, it's a comfortable place to work out and I rarely have to wait on any equipment, and if I do, people usually let you work in. The atmosphere is nice and everyone there is very friendly, especially the trainers. One thing I'm really impressed with is the fact you can ask any trainer how to use the equipment, or help you move weight and they will drop what they are doing to help you. Everyone wants everyone to succeed at this gym. This also isn't a gym where guys gawk at you and take selfies in the mirror with their flip phones, people are actually working out. I deducted a star since not all the features on the cardio equipment work, some of it is broken and doesn't ever seem to be fixed. And the music in the gym is lacking, everyone wears headphones because it's that terrible. Sometimes they have specials where guests can go for $1/day, definitely check it out if you get a chance! read more

What a great gym to drop into during my visit to Oklahoma City! The Weight Room is an iron addicts paradise that has an old school vibe, machines that have stood the test of time, and friendly staff that let me drop in for a workout without having to fill out any paperwork at all. Rows and rows of Dumbbells, plenty of free weight barbells, and a great variety of machines that come from many brands that focus on function over brand loyalty of visual appeal. Everyone was lifting heavy and giving their all in the gym. To me this meant less people staring at each other, more motivation and absolutely no intimidation just because I wasn't a regular. All the members were friendly and shared a bond around training. The good always comes with the bad. The first treadmill I hopped on was out of service, but I made someone aware and they were receptive to it. The shower needs some love too but the locker room was clean and that's really my only criticism! I look forward to coming back to the weight room on my next trip to OKC. read more

Weight Room 24 - Old school iron at the Weight Room - Gyms Near Me - Oklahoma City, Oklahoma

I've recently joined this gym and I'm beyond satisfied with my decision. I left planet fitness because I felt like I was hitting a plateau with the machines, the weights, the everything and I needed something new and fresh to get my mind and my gains excited again. After passing by and seeing the sign for 1 dollar joining fee I decided to drop in and take a tour. I believe his name is Erin, gave me a tour and the run down, and I joined in a matter of minutes and I'm so glad I did. The gym is VERY old school feeling. Between the weights and the older machines (although very safe) it just feels like a lifter and a body builders paradise. I wasn't familiar with all the new (to me) equipment and in some gyms it can be quite intimidating to ask other members for help. NOT THIS ONE! Everyone I've talked to or asked for advice was extremely helpful and super sweet. Everything from the pools and the sauna is top notch and good quality. The best part about this place is that you feel good leaving here. Even though it may seem like its just for power lifters, people of all ages can come here and feel like they are really putting in work with their bodies. No shade to planet fitness, but this feels like a REAL GYM. BONUS!! They have cryotherapy, a variety of trainers and fitness classes, serves protein shakes at the front desk, and has their own supplement mini market right inside the facility. read more

This place and their customer service is absolutely vile! After many attempts at cancellation, they refused without a certified letter. Sent that and they are still charging and refuse to even pro rate. Not only is the place disgusting in general, but they treat people horribly. Can not stress enough....AVOID AVOID AVOID!!!! read more

Not dissatisfied with the gym, just how customers are treated. I've read reviews on several websites and the responses to negative reviews are baffling. You realize what you post is public right? I have read many passive aggressive comments in which someone made a complaint about specific incidents and the response was "I apologize of you took it personally when I did x". You should hire someone to manage your accounts for you if the responses are going to lack any form of accountability and really just add fuel to the fire. Maybe marketing isn't your thing... Also I hope you take the time to re-review how complaints have been responded to and really think about the message being sent to potential customers. Why respond at all? You'd be better off saying nothing. Get some emotional intelligence. I am a member of your gym, just googled it to look up some information and am genuinely disgusted. read more

I've been a member with the Lighthouse for 15 years and a few years back the weight room took over the facility. Since the new ownership took over the level of cleanliness and maintenance declined sharply. The shower room/sauna area is discussing. Dirty towels, stagnant water, mildew, mold, leaky shower faucets, burned out lights, missing shower curtains, urine and feces filled toilets, damp carpet and that's just the bathroom area!!! Recently they had a flood and told me it would be a month before the repairs are complete. I asked to end my contract and they refused to end without a certified letter mailed a month in advance. Who does that? A management group who lacks faith in their product that's who. Highly recommend avoiding, discusting facilities and bad management practices!!! read more

Think this place is great! The trainers are well educated and friendly. The staff at the front are always welcoming and polite, and the prices are more then reasonable. You have the option of no contract cash monthly, which you will not find anywhere else, and free tanning beds w/ your membership. The big thing I love about this place is that it's a no bullshit gym! If your looking to sit around for social hour wearing affliction and sunglasses, cracking out one set and mainly looking for a spot to tag yourself in "living the healthy life" while thinking "let's take a selfie" don't come here.. Which I'm sure everyone will be kind w/ you cause it's a cool spot, I personally will throw a dumbbell at you. Yes, you have as much right to this place as anyone else, I'm just saying golds or planet fitness is prolly more your thing. This place is motivated and surrounded by real change; if your ready to sweat, hit it hard, and rack out some real time w/ an old school selection; weight room is your spot. read more

I am beyond frustrated with this company. I joined when it was the light house and after the fulfillment of the contract wished to discontinue my membership. Went on Feb 21 and was informed that I had to send a certified letter. Could not discontinue the contract in person. Although I thought this was strange I did go home write the letter which I sent by certified mail that I have a receipt was received on Feb 23. I got charged in March but gave them the benefit of the doubt that maybe it took time to get everything straight with the billing company. In April I was charged again. I called and the woman I spoke with said to bring a copy of the receipt to them and they would refund. I did that. Now it is June 4 and I'm charged again. Run run run away from this place. Update now in September and I'm still being charged!! I'm ready to get an attorney involved. DO NOT EVER GO TO THIS PLACE. read more

Made the mistake of walking outside from swim lessons past the counter instead of through the pool area. I was appalled by how incredibly rude a lady at the counter was to my 3 year old and myself. I wanted to see what the gym looked like, since I'm over there often. With a staff member that is rude to a father and son like this last, this is the LAST place Oklahoma City that I would go to workout. read more

After coming here few times just to see if I like it I finally got the membership and that was best decision ever!!! I'm a swimmer, and you can not get a good deal like this anywhere in the city! Plus the hot tubs, saunas and tanning beds are such a great benefit! The gym is very well equipped, variety of classes in the morning AND afternoon (yes - after 5pm!!!), and fantastic staff !!!! So friendly and knowledgeable!!! Can't believe i haven't heard about this place before! read more

Weight Room 24 - Lap pool - Gyms Near Me - Oklahoma City, Oklahoma

When I was looking for a gym two years ago, I wanted a gym but only a gym...a real gym. I didn't need the extras, and certainly didn't want a place where singles mingle. The Weight Room is perfect in that way...low monthly fees with all the equipment and only the equipment I need, and where only people that are serious about meeting their fitness goals go. Hence, The Weight Room's slogan, " A Real Gym". read more

I'm fairly new to the Weight Room and haven't regretted my decision to switch gyms. It doesn't have all the gimmicks and unnecessary frills like other big box gyms. The Weight Room has an old school vibe with a bit older equipment, but well maintained and a good variety. Everyone has been very friendly. The only two things I would suggest would be for the gym to buy a set of Kettlebells (please oh please!!!) and for a couple more spray cleaner bottles placed around the gym as it can be hard to find one some days and would encourage people to clean the equipment more often. Great gym!! read more

If you DON'T want classes, this is your gym. I like classes, and The Weight Room is running off all the instructors due to poor pay scales and other issues. Additionally, the front desk and staff act put out and are unknowleagle when calling with class schedule questions or potential cancellations questions or whatever. It's pretty apparently they want to be a weight lifting gym and not an all-around full service gym with both equipment and classes. They do have tanning (correlates to body building image and competitions) so most everything is geared toward that type of a gym. I've been a member of the Lighthouse consistently for close to 20 years, and it has been convenient for me so I'm really disappointed in the transition to The Weight Room. I'm still hanging in there but beware if looking for both equipment and classes in a gym. read more

I was visiting the OKC area for work and was recommended this gym from the hotel. When I got there I was pretty excited, it had a hardcore classic old school gym feel to it. I told multiple people how much I loved the gym, I even hit some PRS while I was there. It just makes you want to go hard in a gym like that, especially being a big weight lifter like myself. I loved it and hope I will be back! read more

Junk junk junk. The equipment is a collection of used worn out junk. And heaven forbid you try to talk to someone if you are new, you'll get glared at. read more

A gym with such an amazing versatility, they offer everything, from Zumba, to kids karate lessons, wwomen's self defense classes, Crossfit (soon) personal training for both the average and competition folks locally owned, and kknowledgeably Staff, what more can you ask for?? read more

Don't know why anyone would use this as their only or primary fitness option. Only use it as back-up for 24/7 access. Facility is in SERIOUS disrepair and decline. Only gym in metro where you will have to work out to horrible 70's and 80's rock, though it is actually relatively "new" music given that the median age of their membership is 102. read more

Pros: If you like to lift weights and body build, this place has everything you need. More weightlifting equipment than anywhere else in the city. It's old equipment, but still does the job. It's open 24 hours a day, which is great for any schedule. Cons: Bathroom is disgusting, the smell is almost unbearable every single day. I wouldn't walk around in there barefoot if my life depended on it, much less ever take a shower. Worst customer service I've ever seen. Every time you walk in, the front desk staff looks at you with a blank stare on their face (if they even look up at you at all). It almost seems like they want you to feel unwelcome. The cardio machines are filthy. About 60% of the treadmills don't work. read more

Shady billing practices, dirty facility, ran down equipment, rude staff, way over priced. Much better off going to any other gym.

NO STARS for The "New" Weight Room Management I -was- a faithfully paying member with The Weight Room from 2007 until my debit card expired (note: paying not actually attending). Sometime in 2011 my card on file expired but The Weight Room didn't contact me until March 2013. So I get a call from employee requesting payment or he notifies me they will turnover the debt to a collection company. I was a bit frustrated with youngman so requested to speak with a manager but no manager was available so therefore I asked for a return call from a manager. I never received a return call from any supervisor, manager or owner. A few weeks ago I had my credit pulled and guess what? A collection from The Weight Room (Now I'm ANGRY). I call TWR and speak with the manager requesting copies of my contract to review the cancellation policy...Guess What? Three weeks later I still have NO copies of my contract from The Weight Room or a call from the management staff. *Please note that I am not opposed to paying whatever fees are due but I need the documentation and would appreciate some professional courtesy (i.e. return your calls and perform the duties of responsible manager). read more

This place doesn't even deserve a single star, but they won't let me give it a 0. I've been working out at the Weight Room since it was behind Watonga Cheese, back in the 80's. I left for a while and, when I came back to OKC and looked for a place to workout again, I found the Weight Room. The main reason I decided to work out there was that it was no contract. It was just advertised as a month to month deal. Well, I was a member there for over 2 years before I moved out of the city. I actually walked into the place to cancel the member and was told, in person, that I would have to send a registered letter with my account number on it in order to cancel the membership. Are you kidding me?!?! They give me my account number without seeing my ID, because I've been going in there for so long that the lady behind the counter, Maggie, knows me by sight. But I can't cancel my own membership in person. So I go through the hassle of sending the letter and that should have been that. Then another $20 comes out of my account the following month. I call and ask why. I'm told that it's the final payment and no more should be coming out. Then another $20 comes out the following month again!! I call and raise hell with the same manager. She apologizes, gives me some crap story about firing their old accounting company, and says that it's canceled. No more should be coming out. I even received a refund check for the last $20. Then another $20 is taken out again!! I call and speak to a "manager on duty" named Chris. He tells me I'll have to take it up with the manager when she returns. I leave my name and number. He calls me back about a half hour later and tells me that he was told that it can't be canceled!! Says that it's because I added someone to the membership, and he was told that it can't be canceled at this time. My son came and stayed with me during spring break, and I paid for him for 2 weeks! My (supposed) "month - to - month", "no membership" fees never went up a single penny, and I paid for him myself!! I still haven't figured out how to cancel the damn "month - to - month" membership!!!!! read more

HORRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE. I have been trying to cancel my membership for over three months. I originally submitted a letter certified to suspend. Before it was to be re-activated I called to cancel & was told it would be taken care if. Only to have my account drafted the next month. I called. Spoke with the person at the front desk who said they would have the mgr look into it & fix it. Drafted again. I then had to go into the weight room in person. Spoke w another front desk employee who explained the one certified letter to suspend didn't cover to cancel & that I had to send in another. So I did. Only to have my account drafted again the next month. When I at this time called, the mgr, Wanda Hutton, basically told that it was my fault the cancellation didn't go thru. I explained that I was not originally told that I needed one certified for suspension & one for cancellation. Wanda informed me that all the employees know the policy & therefore none of them could have possibly misinformed me & that it must be my fault.....that she then explained that she would have to talk to accounting ppl to see if they could reverse it. Even though I sent the letter in in time. I was misinformed. I have still been charged month after month & no one wanted to help me get refunded. I suppose if you desire to never leave the Weight Room, this is the place for you. read more

its a great gym and the people there make you feel real comfortable working out there. when i first heard about it i was told it was a very old school gym and you had to be a bodybuilder to lift there. once i got there i found out that was not the case. yes they have everything and more there if you are wanting to body-build or power lift . but they do a great job of making everyone feel OK lifting there the trainers are very nice and so are the staff and other members. read more
