Retro Fitness

Best gym in Philadelphia, hands down! Top of the line equipment, free weights (including 2 deadlift platforms with bumper plates), a floor entirely dedicated to cardio machines, a cross fit room, indoor turf, a spin room, and group fitness room for $19.99/month! I have yet to find another gym in Philly that can compete. I highly recommend joining this gym!The staff is great and super helpful. The owner actually works out alongside the members and is constantly using feedback to better the gym.Lastly, the smoothies are great and at a reasonable price. They even walk around with samples throughout the day!

The facility is nice. The workers range from pretty okay to really awesome (Bob, the owner is great). Lots of equipment to use and things to do. Sometimes its crowded but that can he easily circumvented with a little know-how. The protein shakes are great as well.

This Retro is the best in the area when it comes to the overall facilities, the cleanliness of the locker rooms, the exceptional knowledge of their instructors and trainers, and the great customer service provided by the front desk associates. I've belonged to other gyms in the area (PSC on Callowhill and the Weston gym on Market Street) and they are not comparable to what Retro has to offer. Their memberships are reasonably priced and the managers and associates go out of their way to make sure you understand what you are paying for (NO HIDDEN FEES!) Plus, there smoothies are ridiculously delicious!! I would recommend this place to anyone I know.

Love this gym and it's staff. Super friendly,super clean no matter when you walk in. The owner (Bob I believe his name was) is a genuine guy who wants everyone to enjoy being in the gym. They have several Texas power bars which is awesome because not many commercial gyms do and for anyone training for powerlifting you'll definitely enjoy the amount of space and freedom.

"Machines have been out of order for a while. Why during peak hours is a trainer and trainee taking up the entire dedicated weight room? Canceled membership today."I posted the above review three days ago. The owner posted the following response:"Response from the owner 2 hours agoMatthew, we're sorry to see that you've only checked in once this year so we're not sure how you got the impression our machines are down for a long period. We're replacing the Leverage press (our only item down) on Wednesday as it's on back order from the manufacturer. Additionally, the Small Group Training room is dedicated for trainers & trainees who pay a premium membership with scheduled session times, the same as our Spin & GroupX room. - Spring Garden Street Retro Fitness Management Team"Today, I returned to the gym for the 4th time in a week and took the two photos of the equipment which show the same condition that the equipment was in on August 13th, the first time I have been there in a while, on August 15th, and on August 16th. Today is the 20th. So these two pieces of equipment have been down for at least a week, maybe longer.So the response from the owner is false, the leverage press is not the only item down. The assisted dip and pull-up machine has had the "under repair" sign on it for at least a week.

This club is awesome. The staff is friendly and so helpful. They are always smiling when I walk in. The place is always clean and smells good. I have been a member of several gyms and by far Retro of Spring Garden is the best.

I have been a member of Retro Fitness for only a mere two months and I can say with 200% satisfaction that the equipment, the atmosphere, and, most importantly, the service has reached echelons that go beyond impeccable. Previous experiences at other gyms do not compare to the comfort level I have experienced and I can say without any apprehension or doubt that you would be a fool to not join this gym. The managers as well as the staff have exuded humility, empathy, and care for the customer that have made me feel right at home, and I only live two blocks away. If anyone were to request a recommendation as to which gym they should attend in the Philadelphia area, the only two words I will utter without hesitation will be, "Retro Fitness."

Gym is great!! The equipment is also good, always clean. The staff is so welcoming and always in good spirit. If you're looking to switch gyms or get in shape this is the place to go. Their smoothies are to die for; different flavors, protein, supplements, and boosts, doesn't get any better than that. The managers Danny and Euax are very understanding with any time of problems you have. I highly recommend you going and taking a tour of the gym, it's a no-brainer.

I really love coming into this gym! It's a great location and space.There are plenty of cardio machines on the first and second floor so it never feels too crowded.The staff is so friendly and inviting which is very rare in gyms nowadays.The personal trainers are also really friendly there, I always feel comfortable asking them questions about how to use certain machines. The fitness orientation session was amazing, the trainers really helped me figure out which excersies are best suited for my fitness goals! I may even upgrade to the team membership just to continue working out with them!

Love it here. Yes the staff is friendly and they remember you. There are a tons of different machines to choose from. I love the space and set up. The smoothies are delicious. They even have Retro Gear. You can't go wrong joining this gym. 👍🏾 …
