North Park Fitness

My favorite gym of all time. Has everything you need for traditional strength training, powerlifting, cardio, etc. and then some, but the staff are truly what make this gym exceptional. Shouts to Hector, Kristoff, Mike, and the many other trainers/staff that keep this place humming - they are incredibly supportive and helpful, and helped me smash through decade-plus strength plateaus during the four years I worked out there. The other people at the gym will keep to themselves if you prefer privacy/quiet, but are also super friendly and nice if you want to chat. The only reason I left this gym was because I moved out of San Diego, and I miss it already!

I was in town for just a few days and needed a solid gym that offers day passes. It wasn’t easy to find but was really happy to have found this gym (20$ for a day pass). Gym is on the smaller side but has everything you need. They have an awesome selection of plate loaded Hammer Strength machines and plenty of squat racks. Staff was incredibly friendly ! I felt very welcome there. Would sign up if I lived in San Diego.

While this gym is NOT cheap, you really get what you pay for! The equipment is always in good condition, repaired when needed, and they turn on AC when hot. Staff are friendly and responsive. I go about 3 times a week and live in neighborhood, which makes the cost per visit not much. Well worth it!!

I like this gym. Nice location, good equipment, and friendly staff. However, I am giving this average rating because while I was a member, I acquired a Staph infection. It could come from anywhere but I suspect I got it from here. The cleaning facilities provided are inadequate in my opinion. The overused rags with spray need to be replaced with wipes. Period. The mats need replacing. God knows when those were cleaned. For the fee we pay, cleanliness should not be a question.

I tried to cancel my subscription with NP fitness, but they required an email to cancel. I noticed after a few months that I was still being charged and they refused to refund me the hundreds they have charged me since I called and emailed. Not people I want to do business with in the future.
