Great gym, 3 squat racks w/ deadlift platforms in the front, two more squat racks with benches in the back. Additional bench press in the front. Has the full assortment of machines, treadmills, stairmaster, bikes, etc. Also has plenty of free weights, kettlebells, as well as a pull-up area with TRX bands and Olympic rings. Staff is very friendly. Would give five stars, but due to relatively small gym in a populated area, the squat rack / deadlift platforms are often taken. Fortunately most folks are friendly and will let you work in, though this is less than optimal during a pandemic. Was a better value at the prior price of $30/month, but is now $40. Nevertheless, this is in line with inflation as all prices in the area have been increasing. Highly recommend if you live in North Park and can get there without driving. Parking is extremely limited and the parking lot is now taken by Target, so probably better to find a different gym if you have to drive.

It's a small gym, but what it lacks in size it makes up for in a welcoming atmosphere where you don't feel judged (at least for me; I don't feel intimidated by any scary gym rats or meat heads here, unlike some other gyms). The staff are all friendly, the equipment is clean and in good shape. The membership costs are reasonable. They even offer personal training and weekly yoga classes if that's what you're into. The only issue is that it gets a little crowded during peak hours (i.e. right after work), but you'll get that anywhere you go.

  • Jonathan Nitti

Fantastic gym! New equipment, great owner, fantastic employees! As someone that services North Park Fitness, i can assure everyone that the state of the art equipment works fantastically! No cheap anything at this gym. For any questions, or problems or suggestions, talk to Lewis or Hector for personal assistance. No middle man to go through like certain other gyms. This is the gym to be at! Boxing, running, jogging, weight lifting, pilates, yoga, they do all at NP-Fit!

  • John Hickey

Went in to sign up at NPF today, Tori (not sure of spelling) provided EXCELLENT customer service. The gym is not huge but plenty big enough for a great workout. I mainly joined because they have a Concept 2 rower, but they also have Hammer Strength machines, which I am very happy about. They have really nice Life Fitness equipment as well. This place gets it.. they have all the right equipment (I know about these things). Great gym at a great price.

  • melinda moy-elliott

Great neighborhood gym. Staff is super friendly. Equipment is clean and wll taken care of. Even though it's a smaller gym, it doesn't feel like you are squeezed in. There are a lot of squat racks and the equipment bigger gyms would have, you can make due with what NPF has to offer. During COVID most everyone in the gym at the time I go is good about cleaning their equipment before and after use. Reservations are a must. Love working out here!

  • Nicole Heavirland

As an athlete training for Tokyo 2020 Olympics, I require the best equipment in the gym for my lifts. North Park Fitness has everything you need from squat racks, bench, area where you can do Olympic lifts, free weights and most importantly a friendly staff. Every time I leave the gym I feel stronger and complete. Definitely worth checking out for a drop in or a membership! Say Hi if you see me around

  • Meaghan Peterson Glenn

This place is great! Super friendly and personable staff, appropriate distribution of equipment (though I am geared towards weights- there look to be a lot of cardio machines but I never really use those!) so that you’re rarely waiting for anything which is awesome. Clientele are super COVID-conscious, mask wearing is universal and equipment is regularly cleaned.

  • Jorge Vega

Great place to workout. It's clean, has friendly members / staff, and it's convenient. Plenty of free parking and their is rarely a wait for any machines. I've been a member since it opened. Do yourself a favor rather than buying a machine in your lonely garage come work out with your neighbors at North Park Fitness.

  • Kelly Cowan

Clean, simple, and cheap. I love that there aren't screens attached to the cardio machines and that you can look out the windows while working out. Sometimes the music is too loud--seems like everyone is plugged into their own music anyway so it would be nice if they took the tunes down a notch.

  • Elliott Blackwood

Great gym with a selection of machines, free weights, and cardio equipment. Even at peak hours there is sufficient space and availability to get a killer workout knocked out. The employees keep the place spotless and offer solid advice on technique, diet, and other fitness related questions.

  • Evie Aspen

I came as a visitor on vacation and the gym is really nice! They have super good equipment and a nice staff. The gym is super clean, not going to lie it is a little expensive for me but I am a broke high schooler so…. If I ever move here this is my top choice I recommend ppl to come here

  • Kevin Galvao

The gym has everything you need to do a great work out. My only complaint is the music is very loud though. When I go to the gym I want to listen to my own music, preferably without putting the volume on maximum and taking risk of injury my ears.

  • PSAphoto

Great gym, clean, not very busy, good equipment. I appreciate the month to month deal, and there are no weird trainers trying to get me to sign up for personal training. What could be better: a Precor AMT cardio machine would be awesome!

  • Steve Elliott

Excellent well equipped local gym. Plenty of racks and all the basics. Missing some specialty equipment you might find in a larger gym but they make the most of the space they have. Great staff as well. Friendly and helpful.

  • Chris Reer

Been coming here for a while and so far I really enjoy it, conveniently located and very clean. It has almost everything one would need, and just the simple hello/ have a good day is always a nice touch for customer service.

  • Sam Baron

This gym is the best! The staff is super friendly and nice. All the people who go here are also really nice. No a**holes. If you need to work in with someone just ask and they are usually down. Love the neighborhood vibes.

  • symx life

Never enough space, even early morning, no locker room, no modern equipment, 1 singular bench press, unfriendly members that are judgemental. And to top it all off the cheat me out of an entire month membership I paid for.

  • Edgar Ornelas

Amazing place to go workout, easy sign in, people are responsible and clean up after they are done using the equipment. There is also a variety of different exercise equipment that can satisfy any type of workout.

  • W hoovian

Great little gym(in space only) has everything you need to have a great workout. Just visited for a day but will definitely use this gym next time I'm in town. Really wish I bought the merch box, next time

  • Grace Hall

great little gym with pretty much everything you could ever need. never have to wait too long, even when it’s busy, and I haven’t had any bad experiences with staff or other members. my happy place!

  • Alan Hite

NPF is a great gym. They have all the equipment of a regular gym, and even that of a more specialized one(kettlebells, bumper plates, gymnastics rings). Their membership comes at a fair price too.

  • Dan Devine

Great place to get a workout in. They’re always adding new machines and have never been so busy where you’ve needed to wait longer than 5 min for what you need to free up

  • Jason Boschock

I just recently joined a little over a month ago and I'm loving it! It has everything i'm looking for and it's a great price too! The staff is super nice and helpful!

  • Charles H

Nice clean gym. Not too crowded and has a mellow vibe. Good selection of weights and equipment. One thing, I wish they stayed open later, especially on the weekends.

  • Kai Marie Albers

we came here on our 1 week vacation, great gym with reasonable prices, very clean and modern with a big variety in machines and equipment, i would come here again!

  • Damon Hartmann

Clean facility with lots of machines, free weights, cardio stuff, etc. Friendly staff. And they have a daily rate for out-of-towners, which a lot of gyms don't.

  • Egor Kireyev

Great gym! Gets packed at times but has everything that's needed for a good work out. Didn't have a single confrontation and been going here a year plus.

  • F. Jordan Britt

Great spot especially for a short weekend visit if you stay in the north park area. Quality equipment. Awesome staff. Military discount rates as well!

  • Amanda Jones

No nonsense, nice people, great price, all equipment needed is there. If you are looking for an Equinox type, this isn’t it but it gets the job done.

  • Chase Galbreath

Excellent facility with plenty of clean equipment. Staff was always friendly and helpful. Nothing but great things to say about North Park Fitness.

  • Matthew Brewer

Love the staff and adequate equipment for most workouts. Just wish they had a rowing machine that had better resistance. Overall an awesome gym.

Good gym. Has everything. However I never saw anyone cleaning floors. That would be a good improvement.
