I joined Jungle Gym with a friend over two years ago and have never regretted it. Geoff’s classes are challenging and vary every day of the week! The best thing is the Jungle Gym peeps!

The old adage, “it doesn’t get easier, you get stronger” applies 1 million times over with Jungle Gym… it’s 100% FACT with this place. I love EVERYTHING about it. The second you walk in you’re family. Everyone there is friendly and encouraging which makes you want to keep coming back and keep getting stronger. The best part is personally seeing the difference in strength, conditioning and endurance within yourself. I will forever and always rave about JG!

Amazing no-frills gym with a huge selection of equipment.I only utilized the open gym option (no classes) so I can't review the group workouts - however for my solo training this gym absolutely provided everything I needed.There are plenty of barbells, weights, racks, etc. that are all in top shape; I also did not have to wait *ever* to use any piece of equipment. There is also a great dynamic of people training here with some seriously tough men and women (i.e. train here, get results)The pricing for this gym is an insanely good deal. There is no reason whatsoever to use any of the other commercial gyms in the area. Solid 5 stars.

Jungle Gym offers the best workout environment. It is like a big family. Geoff, the owner and trainer, keeps the classes fun, interesting and safe. I can't say enough good things about Jungle Gym and the positive impact it has on my days.

I have gone to Jungle Gym off and on (thankfully on again to stay!) since it was founded. I love the family atmosphere that Jungle Gym provides. When I am going to Jungle Gym I feel strong and capable- like I am pushing myself to be better. Each time I returned to class after a long absence, Geoff welcomed me back as family, no questions. Thank-you Jungle Gym!

Jungle Gym is amazing. I joined Jungle Gym because I needed more motivation than I could get from a regular gym. The community and family at Jungle Gym make it so easy to show up every morning! It is for all fitness levels and body types and the people are great. Jungle Gym has a ton of classes a day, an open gym with free weights, and many community events like trivia nights, a Field Day and a Fall Festival. Oh and the classes are so challenging but I always finish them feeling so accomplished. I have gained a lot of strength and endurance!

I have been a member of several gyms in the Hampton and Newport news, but if you want a true powerlifting gym with the equipment to back it up this is the spot to visit when you are in town or join if you are resident..
