United Athletic Club

UAC is exactly the community gym I’ve been looking for since moving to Portland a year ago. The community vibe, clean and well maintained variety of equipment, and professionalism of the staff is what motivates me and my fitness journey. On closures and hour changes they are very good at keeping clients informed via their multiple social media platforms. The staff is always willing to answer question and greet you on the way in and out. Would highly recommend for all levels of fitness!

Great neighborhood gym with a wonderful staff who are helpful and keep the facilities extremely clean. Sean, the owner, is also an amazing personal trainer who has helped me immensely. Can't recommend this locally-owned business enough.

I love this new gym! Everyone is masked up and the cleanliness is like no other gym I've been to. Spray bottles with cleaner are in reach, as are hand sanitizer. Physical distancing is practiced and taken seriously. The equipment is always in working order and the owner regularly maintains the machines.

High-quality equipment, friendly vibe and clean space. The owner is a longtime personal trainer who converted a former warehouse into the perfect neighborhood gym - equally great for hard-core body builders or people who just want to get in shape. They’re taking COVID seriously, too, with strict mask policies, thorough cleaning, plenty of space and a big garage door that stays open to improve air circulation. I’m thrilled to have United Athletic Club in my neighborhood!

Easily my favorite gym of the last decade and that's saying something given how much I've moved around. I consider UAC fully equipped, clean, and professional. You don't pay for frills that you'll never use. UAC knows what it's about. And the gym atmosphere has been great. Clientele have been respectful, focused, conscientious, and cleanly. I have yet to run into anyone that continuously slams their weights, hogs multiple machines without sharing, or eats up space taking photos/videos of themselves at the expense of others. Refreshing! Big fan of UAC.

I bought a membership for my daughter and I when it opened and have not regretted it. The owner communicated clearly about unavoidable changes due to COVID-19 and is always helpful and friendly. I really like the calm, clean, no frills vibe, and no one trying to sell you extra stuff like at corporate gyms. Just nice people trying to be healthy and strong..not a scene at all. I also appreciate the opportunity to support a black-owned business in Sellwood.

What a great place to work out! I left one of the “chain” gyms last year and won’t ever go back. UAC has everything I need to get a great workout. They are VERY strict with the COVID protocols and have a huge garage door they can open to allow fresh air in. The personal trainer/owner is great and is always helpful with my conditioning needs.

Great gym for anyone looking for a well-equipped and welcoming space to achieve strength and fitness goals! Locally owned and run by experienced competitive weight-lifters and certified personal trainers, this is a great spot for beginners and expert-level folk alike! 💪🏻💪🏻❤️Support local businesses!

If you're looking for a positive, safe and convenient place to work out, check out United Athletic Club. The owner, Sean, is a very friendly and personable guy. His staff is always cheerful and cleaning equipment. He was bold to open during COVID, but he is taking the right precautions to keep everyone safe. Masks are always required, and there is an abundance of cleaning supplies available. Their hours are great, and the location in Sellwood is convenient with plenty of street parking.

The BEST gym! Clean, organized, and great energy all around. There are many options when it comes to equipment whether you’re coming to lift, do cardio, or it’s leg day. Equipment is thoroughly cleaned after each use and everyone is masked up. Sean has inspired me to get back on my fitness journey with challenging yet doable workouts which leave me feeling strong and confident each time. I love this gym and so will you!
