My roommate dragged me here a year and a half ago and now I find West Coast Fitness in my normal routine. My favorite part about the gym is the local feel, low stress environment, and wide range of equipment. It’s a great place to lose some stress and stay in shape at the same time!

West Coast Fitness is the best gym in Portland. Savages work out here, and everyone is so nice and supportive. This is a great place to work out. They have classes for everything and the staff is the best. I love West Coast Fitness.

I’ve been going to West Coast Fitness for over a year now and totally love this gym. Not only are staff and the larger community friendly but the gym offers a great range of classes I’ve found interesting and enjoyable to participate in. What really separates this gym from others I’ve belonged to though is the wide range of equipment I don’t expect to find at a standard gym, including a TreadWall (think tread mill meets climbing wall, as the name implies), a Jacob’s Ladder, and various CrossFit equipment as well as a massage bed and chair. I highly recommend West Coast Fitness!

Extremely good value for the price. Been a member for almost 4 years and have no complaints. Very happy to have it a few blocks away!

I like the gym, it's near my house and an easy walk. Their power lifting room is the reason I initially chose it.However, that being said, I would have given 5 stars if they'd fix their internet. Nothing is more frustrating than being in the middle of a good workout and then having your music buffer constantly. It's horrible. I've brought my complaints to the desk multiple times with no response. I would actually pay more per month for consistent internet speed! Please fix it!*Even writing this review, your internet is slowing me down. And you cant use 4g at most places in the building as there's 1 bar...Edit: I'm updating to 5 star. The internet problem has been fixed as far as I know. I now have perfect connection anywhere in the building. Great gym!

A person gave me a friendly, helpful tour when I stopped by for a look. (I am from Atlanta and staying here with family for a week). The gym is well appointed and has plenty of good equipment. I took a class called "Fit and Fast" (The second one I was going to take was called Boot Camp but it turned out to be crossfit's half-murph. I do Crossfit back home and was hoping for a regular boot camp kind of class, so I passed.) I am a southerner and so that's probably why I find the place frustrating. No one at the desk tells you where classes are (how would I know that bootcamp is in the cage and not where fit and fast is held?). And it was almost as if the instructor was afraid to make eye contact or perhaps even say "Are you a guest? Welcome!" See? I am southern. It's not required, perhaps, to say that but it would be a nice touch. So overall I'd give it a meh.

I just started going to West Coast Fitness about a month ago and I love it. The people working there are very friendly, welcoming and helpful. I also love their class offerings and different workout areas. I mainly signed up for a membership because I wanted to start training with a personal trainer. My personal trainer is Rylan and he's new. I highly recommend Rylan because he has such a great attitude and he's so knowledgeable, attentive, and fun. I really needed someone with a positive, encouraging and motivational attitude to get me to work out and Rylan is perfect for that. If anyone is interested in a great trainer there, Rylan is your guy!

This place is a true gym like back in the days when boxing was a major hit after Tyson and them. The gym is by far better than 24hr fitness and surpasses LA fitness. the gym is outstanding. there are so many different training rooms it’s amazing. there are tv’s for your convenience in the areas like for walking and running or biking ect. there is a caged area for your bigger lifting kinda people. there is also a boxing gym and so much more for your every need. there is also a pro. massage therapist and rehabilitation center ect.Hand the hydro massage table with some huge pressures compared to BRFitness or the BR body renew or what ever there calling themselves now.

They don’t have a great selection of contracts and it can be a bit pricey compared to other gyms but the facility is nice and the customer service is amazing, it helps make up for those short comings. I would like to recognize Austin Wack for being a funny awesome guy. Very kind gentle man, with wonderful advice. Other staff members are very helpful also
