Philly Fitness of Overbrook Park - Philadelphia (PA)

4 /5 M B: Big open gym. Lots of equipment. Lots of room. Never too busy. Well maintained and clean Loss of 1 star is for the following reasons: 1. Not all but There are a few trainers here (I don’t believe are employed by the gym) training clients who feel they have a priority over gym members. 2. They allow filming. Too many people with cameras set up taking too much time on equipment. I once was asked to move my workout because the lighting was better in the area I was. I did not move. Another time a camera was set up between the 2 towers on the turf and I received nasty looks because I did see the camera between the rowers and the guys working out 10 yards away. I know they won’t do it but I would love to see filming banned in the gym

5 /5 Cheick Diawara: I started coming here after I moved because the drive to my old gym was becoming a hassle. Honestly, this place is just as good — maybe even better. They’ve got all the same machines (plus a few extras), and everything actually works. Never seen anything out of order or squeaking, and they always have clips around, which is a nice change. My favorite part is how clean it stays. Instead of those tiny wipe stations that nobody uses and there’s only a couple of, they have spray bottles and microfiber towels literally everywhere — within like 10 steps no matter where you are. Makes it way easier to keep things clean. The staff definitely earns their pay too. There’s always someone wiping windows, picking stuff up, or keeping the bathrooms clean. Overall, 5 stars easy. Only thing missing is a sauna — if they add that, it’s game over.

5 /5 Samantha Nye: Absolutely the best gym! I previously worked in the industry for many years and I can see how much effort they put in to make sure their members have an incredible experience. Everything is top of the line and they keep the place so so clean. The community at the gym feels really kind and neighborly- even the super strong guys aren’t here throwing down weights and loudly grunting. It’s just a great vibe!

4 /5 jameela muhammad: I love this gym, I’ve been going since it opened and it’s a better option than planet fitness! My only complaint is the dumbbell racks. Could someone on staff organize them back to the original display and could keep up with it? It’s been nice to see the gym grow and expand with new members but people have become careless with where they place the weights and it’s become very hard to find every size on both sides of the gym.
