Such a great combination of strength and cardio. The class is challenging and upbeat. The trainers I have had so far have all been lovely. And you can order a refreshing smoothie and have it waiting for you after class!

This review is SO overdue. I've been a member at RippedPHL for over 4 years now and I'm rapidly approaching 500 classes at this place! To say I'm obsessed with the workouts and the staff is an understatement. I'm approaching 37 years old and I am in the best shape of my life. I used to be a cardio junkie - I would run for 10+ miles at a relaxed speed but never do any strength training. Ripped has made me realize that the key to the body I want is resistance training and short but VERY difficult running intervals (aka HIIT).I'm so happy with my body thanks to Ripped. I feel healthy and strong. All of the trainers are wonderful; they correct your form as needed and they NEVER EVER do anything but encourage you to do your best. I've been to gyms in the past where I felt like I was being judged or screamed at - but you will not find this at Ripped.Perhaps the best part is that it's locally owned :-) Katie keeps things fresh with monthly events and "challenges" that promote a little friendly competition amongst gym members. During COVID when gyms were closed, they didn't skip a beat and were able to provide online Zoom classes and socially-distanced outdoor classes throughout the city.I love everyone at Ripped and I truly feel like they are family! GO HERE.

By far the best workout class in Philadelphia. The entire staff is welcoming, accommodating, and kind. Whatever your fitness level, you are welcome here.After having my daughter during the pandemic, I was by far at my highest weight and lowest fitness level. I had taken a few classes before the pandemic, and after seeing a post about special pricing for postpartum moms, I knew it was time to come back consistently. 5 months later, and I am so much stronger and happier in my body. It’s easy to show up for a class when you know your instructors are going to support you, however you need that day.I’m so grateful for this community and cannot recommend RippedPHL enough.

Great classes and a super friendly and helpful staff. They are always responsive when I've had questions or comments, especially via text which is very convenient. I love that you can tailor the workouts to your own fitness needs by switching it up between the treadmill and bench. Looking forward to more classes at RippedPHL!

I love all about RippedPHL and I would recommend it to everyone! Trainers and staff are amazing and the workouts are super engaging. Being someone who has never been consistent with physical activity I cannot believe how much I am able to push myself now and how much energetic and fit I have become thanks to them! I love how you can choose your own pace based on where you are on your fitness journey and how you can improve yourself time by time. Try it and you will not regret it!

This place is absolutely fantastic and every single trainer is great. The classes leave you feeling both exhausted and strong with the mix of cardio and weight training. I’m not usually a workout class kind of guy but I took one class and was hooked. The trainers are so supportive and give you just the right amount of push without screaming at you like other places. It’s such a great place to level up your workout regimen or to just get started. Thank you!

This is such a great fitness studio! People are warm and friendly, and the workouts are the perfect combination of challenging and fun. All the instructors are super helpful, engaging and friendly. I'm so glad I found RippedPHL!

Ripped was great. The instructor was motivating and not too peppy which I appreciate. The lights in the room were cool and the music was great. The process of 15 mins on 15 mins off the treadmill was personally not for me, but the timing of increasing/decreasing speeds/resistance throughout was helpful and made the class go by quickly. The only complaints I have is the insane staircase to get up to the studio and the space on the floor being small.

Absolutely love the facility and trainers, especially Hallie.The workouts are hard. I won’t lie. It’s probably not for someone who’s never worked out. But if you’re looking to take your fitness from “I’m an active person.” To “I will literally out lift some of the men in my life.” This is probably for you.CENTER CITY IS AWFUL TO DRIVE THRU AND ALWAYS UNDER CONSTRUCTION. They do validate parking but honestly if you can take the train or a bus in do so because driving downtown is always a nightmare. But I still give it five stars because that’s absolutely not the gyms fault.

Ripped has the best music, class goes by so fast, yet is so effective and fun. It’s an easy motivator to workout when you look forward to a class! Highly recommended !!
